To retreat means to retreat. From Yan Zhitui's "Yan Family Instructions - Zhizu" in the Northern Qi Dynasty: "I am a Huangmenlang, and I can retreat. At that time, I was traveling in prison, and I was afraid of being slandered. I thought of this plan, but I had no time to do it." Since the beginning of the mourning and chaos, I saw that due to the wind and clouds, I was lucky enough to be rich and noble. Once I took the power, I filled the pits and valleys at night. I saw Huanzhuo and Zheng, and my face was dark and weeping. It turned out that these were not ten or five people. ?
"Yan's Family Instructions" stops at the thirteenth point:
"Li" says: Desires cannot be indulged, ambitions cannot be fulfilled. The universe can reach its extremes, and one's emotions do not know its limits. Only being content with a few desires is the only limit. The ancestor Jinghou Jiezi's nephew said: Your family is a scholar, and there is no wealth in the world. From now on, officials should not exceed two thousand dan, and marriage should not be greedy for power. I will remember it all my life and consider it a famous saying.
The ways of heaven, earth, ghosts and gods are full of evil. Being modest and avoiding losses can avoid harm. The most important thing in life is to wear clothes to cover the cold dew, and the most important thing to eat is to satisfy hunger and deprivation. Within the body, one cannot afford to be extravagant. Outside the body, do you want to be poor and arrogant? King Mu of Zhou, Emperor Qin, and Emperor Wu of Han were rich all over the world, and they were regarded as emperors. They didn't know the rules of discipline, but they still suffered from self-defeat. How can they be regarded as common people? Often there are twenty people in a family, many slaves and maidservants, and no twenty people can go out. There are ten hectares of fertile land, and the halls and halls are protected from the wind and rain. The chariots and horses are only substitutes for staffs, and tens of thousands of wealth are accumulated to predict good and bad times. It is nothing less than this, with righteousness. Scatter it; if you don’t get there, don’t seek it without the Tao.
The official is said to be a good person, but he is in the middle grade. He looks forward to fifty people and looks to fifty people behind him, which is enough to avoid shame and danger. Those who are higher than this should give up their thanks and lie down in the private court. I am a Huangmenlang, so I can retreat. At that time, I was traveling in prison, and I was afraid of being slandered. I thought of this plan, but I didn't have time to do it. Since the beginning of the mourning and chaos, I saw that due to the wind and clouds, I was lucky enough to be rich and noble. Once I took the power, I filled the pits and valleys at night. I saw Huanzhuo and Zheng, and my face was dark and weeping. It turned out that these were not ten or five people. Be careful! Be careful!
