Allusion:

This is what Liu Bei gave to his son Liu Chan before his death. The original sentence of the posthumous edict is: "Do not do evil because it is small, and do not do good because it is small. Only the virtuous and virtuous can obey others." The purpose is to encourage him to improve his morality and career and make a difference. Don't not do good things because they are small, and don't do bad things because they are small. If a small amount of good is accumulated, it will become a great good that benefits the world, while if a small amount of evil is accumulated, it will be "enough to disrupt the country."

Liu Beiwen of the Three Kingdoms said: "Do not do evil because it is small, and do not do good because it is small." This sentence talks about the principle of being a human being. As long as it is good, you must do it even if it is a small good; as long as it is "evil", you must not do even a small evil. This sentence deserves to be known and remembered by the world. Later generations passed down the saying: "Don't do evil because it's small, don't do good because it's small."
