Before and after the teacher

The emperor (Emperor Taizong) said to the ministers on the left and right: "I read the book Yang Di Ji and found that the wording of the article is very profound. I also know that I affirm Yao Shun and deny Jie Li and Zhou. Why do you do the opposite?" Minister Wei Zhi replied, "Although the people's monarchs are all wise men in Tessa, they should also accept others' suggestions with an open mind and let the wise men contribute their talents.

He didn't know himself and finally lost his reputation. " The emperor said with deep feelings, "The lessons of our predecessors are not far away, so we should learn from them."

God's bell distinguishes thieves.

In ancient times, when he was a magistrate of Pucheng county in Jianzhou, a rich man was robbed and arrested several people, but I don't know who the real thief is. So the story tells them that there is a bell in the temple, which is very effective and can tell who is a thief.

But the police did not find the man who sold crutches in the market, and Li Yao did not prove his innocence in the end. The government then interrogated Li Yao and asked him where he came from.

After getting in touch with the local government in Suizhou, Ya of Zigui County learned that this person was the suspect of Dahongshan's murder and absconding, so the Dahongshan murder case was solved.

The king of Wu said to him, "Why did you come here and get your clothes wet?" The young man replied, "There is a tree in the garden with a cicada on it. It sings and drinks dew on high, but it doesn't know there is a mantis behind it; Mantis bent down and grabbed the branch tightly to catch cicada, but I didn't know the yellowbird was nearby. But when the yellowbird stretched out its neck to peck the mantis, it didn't know that my projectile was under it. These three only consider the immediate interests and do not consider the disasters behind them. " The king of Wu said, "You are right!" So he called off the invasion.

Li Zhuang Jian Gong

Li Zhuang went home to live in Xinhe. My father (Lu Zai, Lu You's father) built a small pavilion called Yan Qianting, where you can see the whole picture of Nanshan. Every time he comes, it's only one day. He once wrote a poem: the benefits of home mountain are hard to find, and there is only Wolong every day. If you want to see Nanshan, you must come to the pavilion and be less calm. Whenever I talk about today, I often sigh angrily and call Qin Gui "Xianyang". One day, sitting on the gazebo, I raised my glass and told my father: I'm leaving. I'm exiled to a far place. Jealous of my relationship with Zhao. Zhao has passed the mountain (this sentence describes Zhao's tragic situation), how can I avoid custom! I heard that Zhao said goodbye to his children in tears after receiving the order. I would never do that. By then, shoes, cloth and socks will be ready from now on. After more than ten days, there was really an order from Fujitsu. His father sent him to Zhuji and came back and said, Taifa (referring to Li Guang) smiled generously, as usual. When I asked him why he offended me, he said, "It's unnecessary to ask, but Qin Gui will miss this country eventually!"! "

Xiuqi Zhiping

An old man, wearing linen mourning clothes and a white mourning hat, finally came to offer his condolences. Sun Shuai adjusted his coat and hat and came out to meet him. He said to the old man, "The King of Chu doesn't understand that I have no talent. People came to congratulate me on becoming a senior official like Ling Yin. Only you come to mourn. Isn't there anything to teach me? " The old man said, "Have something to say. A person who is arrogant and rude to others in a high position will leave him. A king who has a high position but uses his power without authorization will hate him. People who are well paid but dissatisfied will hide there. " Sun Shuai bowed to the old man twice and said, "I sincerely accept your suggestion and would like to hear the rest of your opinions." The old man said: "the higher the status, the more modest the attitude;" The bigger the official position, the more cautious it is; The salary is already very generous, so don't ask for other people's property easily. If you strictly abide by these three (opinions), you can govern the state of Chu. " Sun Shuai said, "That's good. I'll remember. "

Law enforcement interpretation

Emperor Wendi passed by Zhongwei Bridge, and a man ran out from under the bridge, which frightened the horse that Emperor Wendi was riding. So (Wendi) sent cavalry to arrest (him) and handed things over to Tingwei yamen for disposal. Zhang Shizhi inquired (about it). The man said that he was from another county, and I heard that he was hiding under the bridge. After a long time, I thought the driver had passed, so I came out. When I saw the horses and chariots that Wendi rode, I ran away immediately. Ting Wei gave a clear penalty. A man offended him and was fined. Wendi said angrily, "This man obviously frightened my horse. Fortunately, my horse is gentle and smooth. If you change to another horse, wouldn't it make the car break down and hurt me? " But Tingwei sentenced him to a fine! "Zhang Shizhi said," the law is observed by the son of heaven and people all over the world. Now the law is like this. If (if) it is changed and (if) it is severely punished, the law will not be trusted by the people. Besides, at that time, if the emperor immediately ordered him to be killed, that would be all. Since it has been handed over to Ding Wei, Ding Wei is the best law enforcement officer and should enforce the law fairly. Once there is a bias, the application of the laws in the world will be as light or heavy as him, and the people will not be at a loss. Only (hope) your majesty can see this clearly! " After a long time, Wendi said, "Ting Wei's conviction is correct. "

At this time, another villager was killed in Zigui city, and the government was eager to catch the murderer. When the victim's son saw Li Yao in the street, he recognized the crutch and said, "This is his father's crutch." So he reported the case to the yamen. The magistrate caught Li Yao, which proved to be the victim's crutch, and all means of torture were exhausted. Li Yao said that he is indeed a person who buys crutches, not a murderer. But the police did not find the man who sold crutches in the market, and Li Yao did not prove his innocence in the end. The government then interrogated Li Yao and asked him where he came from. Knowing that he couldn't hide it, Li Yao told his real address. After getting in touch with the local government in Suizhou, Ya of Zigui County learned that this person was the suspect of Dahongshan's murder and absconding, so the Dahongshan murder case was solved. Li Yao was punished as he deserved.
