From-The Book of Rites Quli by Dai Sheng in the Western Han Dynasty.
Therefore, the ceremony is for people, and there are tillers in the wine. A gentleman is thick and a villain is thin. Therefore, the holy king repaired the righteous handle and the ritual order to treat human feelings. Therefore, those who care about human feelings, the field of the holy king, ploughing ceremony, planting ceremony, giving lectures, gathering ceremony, and playing music.
Therefore, for people, ceremony is like wine yeast to wine. Strong koji looks good, but light koji is not good. Pay more attention to etiquette and become a gentleman, but despise etiquette and become a villain. Sages cultivate human feelings with righteousness as the foundation and ceremony as the order. So human feelings are the domain of the holy king. We plow the fields with courtesy, plow the fields with Chen Yi, give lectures and hoe the fields, harvest with kindness, and get used to courtesy and behavior with music.

Brief introduction of the author
Dai Sheng (date of birth and death unknown) was born in Suiyang, Guo Liang (now Minquan County, Shangqiu City, Henan Province), from Suiyang District, Shangqiu City, Henan Province. Officials, scholars and etiquette scholars in the Western Han Dynasty, and pioneers of Confucian classics in the Han Dynasty. Later people called it "Little Dai".
Dai Sheng devoted his life to studying Confucian classics. Together with his uncles Dade and Qingpu, he devoted himself to studying Confucian classics and made great achievements. Historically, Dai Sheng was called "Dadai", and Dai Sheng was called "Dai Xiao", collectively known as "Dadai". The reason is that "Li" has the knowledge of "attaching importance to history and being harmonious with the Qing Dynasty".
Dai Sheng compiled various etiquette papers written by Confucius disciples from the Warring States Period to the early Han Dynasty, as well as his re-transmission and three biographies, which were called Little Dai Ji or Little Dai Li Ji.
The book was originally a compilation of materials explaining Yili, and was later annotated by Zheng Xuan. It got rid of its subordinate position and became an independent book. Its essence is more conducive to maintaining feudal rule than the red tape in Yili. Dai Sheng thus created "Little Albert Venn Dicey".
