The meaning of this sentence is: live in the most spacious residence in the world, stand in the most upright position in the world, and walk on the broadest road in the world. This sentence comes from Mencius's "Wealth and Honor Cannot Be Promiscuous" during the Warring States Period.

Although Mencius's famous saying about "real men" is inappropriate in criticizing politicians, the famous saying "Wealth cannot be lustful, power cannot be subdued" still shines brightly and has encouraged people in history. He has inspired many people with lofty ideals and benevolence, and has become their motto for not fearing violence and upholding justice.

Appreciation of the work:

Jing Chun believed that Gongsun Yan and Zhang Yi could influence the princes and provoke wars between countries. "When they are angry, the princes are afraid, and when they live in peace, the world is destroyed." He is an incredible man.

Mencius believed that Gongsun Yan, Zhang Yi and others climbed up the ranks by wagging their lips and bending their minds to obey the wishes of the princes. They had no principles of benevolence, righteousness and morality. Therefore, they were just villains and women who pursued "Concubine way", how can we talk about being a real man?

Mencius only used the word "propriety" to explain the mother's instructions when a woman got married, and from this he concluded that "the right person to be obedient is the way of a concubine." What is worthy of our attention here is that the ancients believed that , The way of a wife is like the way of a minister. Of course, ministers should be obedient to their king, but the principle of obedience is based on justice. If the king behaves unjustly, ministers should advise him.

The same is true for wives towards their husbands. Of course, the wife should obey her husband, but if the husband has made mistakes, the wife should persuade him to make amends. It should be "harmony but difference". Mencius believed that this "concubine's way" cannot be generally understood as a woman's way, but is actually the "little wife's way", and only Confucian benevolence and propriety are the "man's way".
