Interpretation: It's not a shame to ask for advice from people with knowledge or lower status than yourself.

In the Spring and Autumn Period, there was a man named Kong Wei, who was studious and modest. After his death, the king of Wei gave him the title of "Wen" in order to commend him and let future generations learn his studious spirit. Therefore, people later honored him as "Kong Wenzi".

Confucius had a student named Zi Gong, who was also a patriotic. He thinks that Kong Cong doesn't call him "Kong Wenzi" as people say, which seems to be a bit overrated. He thought about it and thought it over, but he couldn't understand it, so he asked Confucius for advice.

Zi Gong said, "That Kong Wen Zi is nothing. Why should he be given the title of Wen?"

Confucius replied, "Confucius is smart and studious, and he is brave enough to ask advice from people who are inferior to himself in status and knowledge, without feeling humiliated. This is very remarkable, so he should be given the title of' Wen'."

After hearing what Confucius said, Zi Gong suddenly realized that he was completely convinced.

The biography of the Three Kingdoms, Wu Shu and Lu Meng quoted the biography of Jiang Biao: "I can't let go of the affairs of Wudang military forces."

For example, Min Xiangnan is an avid reader. He is over 7 years old and misses 2 or 3 yuan every night. (Qing Wang Xie's "The Theory of Virtue in the Present Life")

Kuang Heng, born in the East China Sea of the Western Han Dynasty (the name of Han County, today's Pi County in Jiangsu Province is east to the sea, and Ziyang County in Lianshan East Province is east to the sea). He was born in a peasant family, and his grandfather and father were farmers for generations. Spread to Kuang Heng, but like reading. When he was young, his family was poor. He worked as an employee during the day to make a living, and only had time to study at night. But the family is too poor to even light candles. The lights and candles next door are bright, but they can't shine. Kuang Heng figured out a way to cut a hole in the wall next door, "steal" a little light from it, and let the next door's light shine. He was reading with a book in his hand, reflecting the light in front of the cave.

Kuang Heng's family is poor and can't afford books. There is a rich man in his hometown who has a rich collection of books. Kuang Heng went to his house to work, but he didn't receive any money. The rich man was surprised and asked Kuang Heng why. Kuang Heng said, "I don't want to be paid. I just hope that you can lend me all the books at home, and I will be very satisfied." Hearing this, the rich man was deeply moved by his studious spirit and agreed to his request. Since then, Kuang Heng has had excellent reading opportunities. According to the history books, Kuang Heng is full of energy, surpassing ordinary people, the rich library of the rich family, and Kuang Heng's hard work, which finally made him a knowledgeable scholar. At that time, among the scholars, there were even a few words of word of mouth: "If you don't say" Poetry ",you will come here; Kuang said poetry, understanding people (no one can explain the Book of Songs, Kuang Heng just came; Kuang Heng explained the meaning of the Book of Songs to everyone, and everyone laughed happily. " It shows that he has a high reputation. At that time, many scholars worshipped him as a teacher and learned from him.

During the reign of Emperor Han Yuan, Zhang Heng was recommended to be appointed as a doctor by the imperial court, and then promoted to a doctor. At this time, there was a solar eclipse and an earthquake successively. The Emperor of the Han and Yuan Dynasties was afraid that it was a warning sign of disaster from heaven, so he consulted his ministers about political gains and losses. Kuang Heng last played, citing historical facts to show that the astronomical phenomena are only a natural change of Yin and Yang, and the fortunes and blessings all lie in people's actions, the ethos of human society, and more importantly, the enlightenment and influence of the court. Therefore, the emperor should cut down the expenses of the court, be close to loyal officials and upright people, alienate disloyal officials and villains, select talented people, open the way to accept loyal advice, and so on. Emperor Hanyuan appreciated Kuang Heng's knowledge and promoted him to Doctor Guanglu and Prince Shaofu.

The Han Emperor Pang Aifu Zhaoyi and her son Ding Tao Wang Chao passed the queen and the prince. Kuang Heng earnestly exhorted this, and thoroughly analyzed the truth that "the family should be the master of the world", so as to prevent the disaster of the country. Kuang Heng took part in the discussion of major policies in the imperial court, quoted classics and expounded legal principles and morality, which was highly appreciated. He was promoted to Guanglu Xun, an ancient scholar, and later to Prime Minister, and was named Le Anhou.

In the Han and Yuan Dynasties, the eunuch ordered Shi to show his autocratic power, excluding and framing virtuous people. Kuang Heng was too afraid of him to criticize. After the death of Emperor Yuan of the Han Dynasty, Emperor Cheng of the Han Dynasty acceded to the throne, and Kuang Heng and Zhen Tan, the imperial historian, jointly impeached Shi Xian, exposing all kinds of evils of him and his henchmen. Shi Xian and his minions were duly punished. However, some people think that Kuang Heng, as the minister of Fuzheng, did not participate in the disclosure in time in his early years, but he did not do his duty and impeached him. Kuang Heng also felt ashamed, repeatedly asked to resign, and was finally dismissed for occupying more fiefs.

According to Kuang Heng's story, later generations summed up an idiom, "Digging the wall to steal light", which describes being diligent and eager to learn.
