Confucius Tathagata-(22) A gentleman can be bullied.

? One day, one of Confucius' students killed me and asked Confucius a very strange question: "Teacher, a good gentleman, if we cheat him: someone fell into the well!" " Will he jump into the well to save people immediately? Confucius frowned and replied, "How come?" A gentleman may look at it right away, but he won't jump in a daze. A gentleman can be bullied, not bullied. "

? For this view, Mencius has a famous saying: "A gentleman can bully his side." In other words, a gentleman can be deceived by legitimate reasons or by reasonable scams.

? To sum up, the author once again expressed Confucius' value in this article: trusting others reasonably is not only benevolent but also wise. It is not only a fool but also a fool to deceive others with reasonable lies.

? A gentleman does not doubt what is justice and what is reasonable-because it is more important to maintain the basic trust bottom line of a society than to prevent being cheated.
