1. The sea accepts hundreds of rivers, and it is big if it has tolerance; if it stands thousands of feet high on the wall, it is strong if it has no desires.

Interpretation: The sea can be big only when it can accommodate thousands of rivers. Only when people have no selfish desires and greed can they be as tall and strong as steep mountains. Lin Zexu's self-encouragement couplet shows his broad mind and noble personality, and has become the urban spirit of Fuzhou City.

2. If one lives and dies for the benefit of the country, why should one avoid it because of misfortune or fortune? To have a capacity is to be a great teacher for thousands of years. To have no desire is to be a teacher for hundreds of generations.

Explanation: This poem was written by Lin Zexu on his way to Yili in August 1842 after he was exiled from the army. As long as it is beneficial to the country, even if it costs life, how can we avoid disasters and step forward to extend our hands when it is advantageous? If you live and die for the interests of the country, you will move forward bravely without avoiding personal misfortune. If you have tolerance, you will shine forever; if you have no desire, you will be a teacher for all generations.

3. Contest to defend territory and drive away tigers and leopards. The reasoning of the thesis is combined with poetry. To be an official, one must be mentally and physically upright, and have a reputation for unparalleled achievements.

8. Lin Binri "lived up to the spirit of morality, valued his promises, and regarded others' needs as his own."

12. Lin Zexu While he was keeping filial piety for his mother at home, when the high weir in the south of the Yangtze River burst, the imperial court ordered him to seize his love and build a dike. Lin Zexu was hesitant. Lin Binri said: "If the country has urgent and hard work, it is responsible for doing its best, and there is no profit and salary to be gained by appointing officials. If you don't go there, you will be afraid of difficulties and avoid it, and you will not be loyal. How can you be filial?" "Lin Zexu went to his post wearing a filial piety. During the Dingyou period, Lin Zexu also organized and launched large-scale dredging activities to renovate the West Lake, giving it a completely new look.
