Huang Tingjian, a poet in the Song Dynasty, said that a scholar-bureaucrat did not study for three days, and did not pay attention to righteousness.
Scholar-officials don't study for three days, their righteousness is not in their hearts, their faces are disgusting to the mirror, and their words are tasteless to people.

In other words, if a scholar-bureaucrat doesn't study for three days, etiquette and morality can't be interconnected in his heart, and he will feel disgusting and tasteless. This is the relationship between reading and self-cultivation. This is a famous saying.
