Translation of the ancient Chinese prose "Zhao Gong remonstrated with Wang Mi"
Zhao Gong warned Li Wang to stop slandering.

Li Wang insulted the king, while China slandered him. Call to inform: "The people are not in danger!" When the king is angry, he will defend the witch and make slanders. Sue, then kill. Chinese people dare not speak, and the road is eye-catching. Wang Xi said to Zhao Gong, "I can slander, but I dare not speak."

Zhao Gong said, "This is also an obstacle. It is better to keep the people's mouth than to keep Sichuan. If a river collapses, it will hurt many people, and so will the people. Therefore, it is a guide for the people of Sichuan and an announcement for the people. Therefore, the emperor listened to politics and made his ministers offer poems to the priests. Zhu (who studied in ancient times for three times, was a music official, and the ancient music official was mostly used by the blind) offered songs, books and history books, taught remonstrance (who studied in chastity once, remonstrated), Zhu (who studied in ancient times for three times, was blind without pupils), and Meng (who studied in Meng twice, was blind with pupils) recited, remonstrated all the merits and gave words. People have a mouth, Judah has mountains and rivers, money is spent on them, Judah has roots (pronounced xi, low humidity), and food and clothing are born from this. The declaration of the mouth also says that good and bad will lead to prosperity, and good behavior will lead to failure, so people who have money and food will also have money. Husband and people, care about the heart, declare it in the mouth. What can they do when they succeed? If you bite, does it have the geometry of energy? "

Hearing this, Wang Fu was afraid to speak in China. Three years, Wang Yukui.

Li Guowang was cruel, and China people accused the king. Zhao Gong told me: "People can't stand such a life!" Li Guowang was very angry and found a wizard to defend the country and asked him to monitor the accuser. If it comes from the defendant, kill him. People in China dare not speak, but greet with their eyes on the road.

Li Wang was very happy and told Zhao Gong, "I can stop the accusation. I dare not speak. "

Zhao Gong said: "This is to stop them. It is more difficult to prevent people's mouths than to prevent Sichuan water. When a river is blocked and its banks burst, more people will be hurt and people will be hurt. Therefore, the people who govern the river dig detours to let the water flow in the direction, and the people who govern the river let the water talk and vent. Therefore, the emperor listened to politics and asked officials or officials to present poems in the column. Official songs (folk songs), books by historians (recording the deeds of ancient kings), teachers reading proverbs, officials reading poems, officials reading aloud, hundreds of officials advising people (hearing rumors), officials (around the king) trying their best to restrain (the king) from acting according to the statutes, and relatives helping to watch as a remedy. People have mouths, just like there are mountains and rivers on the earth, from which things used to make property come out, just like it has fertile and low-humidity leaves that are easy to breed, and clothes and food grow (come out) there. In other words, the good and bad of (politics) come out here. Good (policy) implementation is accompanied by (previous) failure experience and is the basis for increasing (national) property and (people's) food and clothing. People say what they think from their mouths. How to block the good things when they are implemented? If it is shielded, how long can it be shielded? "

Wang Li won't listen. At this time, no one dared to speak. Three years later, (Li Wang) was exiled to Ques.
