Why do you need amber to be a pillow? How can you use a pearl to be a chariot?
You will never see a Qinghai horse when you are far away, and you will be hard-pressed to pull out a Shushan snake.
Several people have prepared the music of Nanxun, and in the end the blue sky cries the green flowers.
Notes: ① This article is titled "Ode to History" and is actually a work mourning the death of Emperor Wenzong of the Tang Dynasty. The poem was written after the death of Wenzong in the first month of the fifth year of Kaicheng. ② "Han Feizi Shi Guo" records that Duke Mu of Qin asked the ancient Ming Dynasty why he won and lost his country, and Yu Yu replied: "I have heard about it, and I often gain it through frugality and lose it through luxury." ③ Shen Yue " According to "Book of the Song Dynasty", when Emperor Wu was in Ningzhou, he presented an amber pillow. During the Northern Expedition, amber was needed to treat gold sores, so he ordered it to be crushed and divided into pieces. ④ "Historical Records: Tian Jingzhong Wanshijia": King Wei Hui of Wei boasted to King Wei of Qi that he had "pearls with an inch diameter, ten of which can illuminate the twelve chariots at the front and back." "Zhao Qianli, there are twelve chariots!" Dezhen: Complete Poetry School: "A work should be treasured." ⑤ Qinghai horse: a hybrid horse produced in Qinghai Lake. It is said that it can travel thousands of miles in a day, which is a metaphor for a talented person who can be responsible for military and national affairs.
Appreciation: In this poem, based on the historical facts of the rise and fall of history, the poet summarizes it as "looking at the virtuous countries and families in the past, the success was caused by diligence and frugality, and the failure was caused by luxury." These clear attitudes of using the past to draw lessons from the present contain profound intentions and are more conscious and complete than previous understandings. Regarding the issue of who depends on who rises and falls, although Li Shangyin was limited by the times and could only tie the lifeline of Li Chao to the emperors, most of his poems accused them of bringing chaos to the country. Therefore this kind of revelation is more progressive.

Everything in the world is often accomplished by diligence and frugality but failed by luxury. --Lu You Sentence: A gentleman overcomes difficulties with frugality.
Source "Book of Changes·No" A careless gentleman uses the virtue of frugality to avoid danger. Be diligent in your country, be frugal in your family.
Source "Shang Shu Dayu Mo" generally states that one should be diligent in national affairs and frugal in family life. Frugality is the greatest virtue; extravagance is the greatest evil.
Source "Zuo Zhuan·Twenty-Four Years of Duke Zhuang" Being careless and frugal is the greatest virtue among good deeds; luxury is the greatest evil among evil deeds. People's livelihood depends on diligence, and diligence means nothing.
Source "Zuo Zhuan·Xuan Gong Twelve Years" The general idea is that the livelihood of ordinary people depends on hard work. Only by working diligently can there be no shortage of property. Frugality leads to prosperity; immorality leads to ruin.
Source "Mozi Ci Guo" If you are careless and frugal, you will prosper; if you are careless and hedonistic, you will be ruined. The Story of Diligence and Thrift: The Story of Ji Wenzi Ji Wenzi was born in a family that had been prime minister for three generations. He was an aristocrat and famous diplomat of the Lu State in the Spring and Autumn Period. He had been an official for more than 30 years.
He lived a frugal life, taking frugality as the foundation of his life, and asked his family to live a frugal life. He only dressed plainly and neatly, and had few decent clothes except court clothes. Whenever he went out, he rode in extremely simple carriages and horses.
Seeing that he was so frugal, a man named Zhongsunzi advised Ji Wenzi: "As a minister, you are highly virtuous and respected, but I heard that you don't allow your wives and concubines to wear silk clothes at home, and you don't need to." Feed the horses with food. If you don't pay attention to your appearance and clothing, wouldn't you look too shabby and make other countries laugh at you? Doing so would also be detrimental to the dignity of our country. People would say that the Shangqing of Lu lived a kind of life. What kind of day.
Why don’t you change this way of life? It’s good for yourself and the country, so why not?” After hearing this, Ji Wenzi smiled calmly and said to the man. Seriously: "I also hope to decorate my home luxuriously and elegantly, but look at the people in our country. There are still many people eating rough and unpalatable food, wearing shabby clothes, and some are suffering from cold and hunger." Thinking of this, how can I have the heart to buy property for myself? If the common people are wearing rough clothes, and I dress up as a concubine and raise grain and horses, how can I have the conscience to be an official? The strength and glory of a country can only be shown by the noble conduct of its subjects, not by the fact that they have beautiful wives and good horses. In this case, how can I accept your suggestion? Guang said this. , which made Zhongsun look ashamed, and at the same time made him respect Ji Wenzi even more.
After that, he also followed Ji Wenzi and paid great attention to the simplicity of life, and his wives and concubines only wore ordinary cloth. The clothes were made, and the horses at home were only fed with chaff and weeds. There was a high-ranking official in the Eastern Jin Dynasty named Wu Yinzhi. He lost his father when he was young, and lived a hard life with his mother, so he developed the habit of thrift and simplicity.
After becoming an official, he still hated luxury and refused to move into the official residence prepared for him by the court. For many years, his family only lived in a few thatched houses. Later, when his daughter got married, people thought he must be there. I will take care of it, but on the big day, the Wu family is still deserted.
General Xie Shi’s housekeeper came to congratulate him and saw a servant walking out with a dog. The housekeeper asked: "You." My young lady is getting married today, why doesn’t she show any signs of making arrangements? The servant frowned and said, "Don't mention it, my master is too frugal. The young lady is getting married today, and the master only ordered the preparations last night."
I originally thought that the owner should spend some money this time, but unexpectedly, the owner actually asked me to go to the market this morning to sell the dog and use the money from selling the dog to buy things. Tell me how much a dog can be sold for. I think ordinary people marrying daughters are more elegant than my master! The steward sighed: "Everyone says that Mr. Wu is a rare upright official. It seems that he really deserves his reputation." ”
Su Shi, one of the Eight Great Masters of the Tang and Song Dynasties, became a Jinshi at the age of 21 and served as an official for 40 years. During his tenure as an official, he always paid attention to frugality and often lived a careful life. A.D. In 1080, Su Shi was demoted and moved to Huangzhou. As his salary was greatly reduced, he was too poor to survive. Later, with the help of his friends, he got a piece of land and started farming by himself.
In order not to spend a penny indiscriminately, he also implemented a planned expenditure: first calculate all the money, and then divide it into 12 equal portions, using one portion every month; each portion was evenly divided into 30 small portions, and only one small portion was used every day. After all the money is divided, he hangs it on the beam in portions, and takes out a package every morning to use as his daily living expenses.
After getting a small amount of money, he has to carefully weigh it. Don't buy anything you don't want to buy, only keep it as a surplus and don't overspend. Su Shi kept the money he saved in a bamboo tube to prepare for unexpected needs.
There is such a folk story: Once upon a time, At the foot of Funiu Mountain in the Central Plains, there lived a farmer named Wu Cheng. He was diligent and frugal in his life and lived a carefree and happy life. It is said that before his death, he left a horizontal plaque with the word "diligence and thrift" written on it. He gave it to his two sons and warned them: "If you want to avoid hunger all your life, you must do as these two things do. ”
Later, when the two brothers separated, they saw the plaque in half. The eldest brother got the word "diligence", and the second brother got the word "thrift". The eldest brother respectfully cut the word "diligence". At Gao Xuan's house, "every day the sun rises and people rest", and there is a bumper harvest every year.
However, his wife lives a lavish life, and the children often throw away the white steamed buns after taking two bites. As time went by, there was no more food left in the family. Since the second child was given half of the plaque, he also placed the word "thrift" as an "oracle" in the middle hall, but forgot the word "qin".
He neglects farming and refuses to cultivate intensively
