Lutz led the way and said to him: "The country of a thousand times (shèng) was taken among the great powers, traveling with the teacher, hungry (j ǐ n); Because of this, compared with (bǐ) and three years, you can go forward bravely and know people well. "
Master (shěn).
"Ask, what about you?"

"Hong, what about you?"

Confucius said, "Why not? Also speak your mind! " Yue: "Mo (mù) has taken spring clothes, five or six people crowned (guàn), six or seven boys bathed (yí), danced in the wind (yú) and returned to the song."
Kuì sighed: "I am with Dian."
The third son came out and Zeng Xi was the queen. Zeng said, "What did Fu Sanzi say?"
Confucius said, "Let's stop talking!"
He said, "What's the reason, Master?"
He said, "be polite to the country. If you don't let it, that's one reason. Just not a state, and (yú)? Who is comfortable in sixty or seventy, say fifty or sixty, not the country? Only red is not a state? Ancestral temples will be harmonious, not princes. The red one is small, how can it be big? " [ 1]

Lutz, Ceng Yong, You Ran and Gong Xihua sat with Confucius. Confucius said, "Because I am older than you, (people) don't need me. (The other two said: 1. " Think of "thinking" and don't think (this is wrong) that I said it. " 2. "Take" as "stop", (you) don't stop talking because of me. You "What are you going to do if someone knows you?"
Lutz hit the nail on the head and replied: "A country with thousands of chariots is sandwiched between big countries, then invaded by foreign troops, and then encounters famine;" If I am allowed to govern this country for three years, I will certainly give people the courage to defend the country and understand the truth of being a man. "
Confucius laughed it off.
"You Ran, how are you?"
(You Ran) replied: "A country with 60-70 miles or even 50-60 miles of Fiona Fang, if I manage it, I can make the people rich in three years. As for the revitalization of ritual and music education, we have to wait for sages and gentlemen. "
"Gong Xihua, how are you?"
Gong Xihua replied: "I dare not say what I can do, but I am willing to learn to do something." I am willing to be a small official in a formal suit and hat when I meet the ancestors or princes and see the son of heaven. "
"Zeng Xi, how are you?"
The sound of playing the harpsichord became sparse and clanged. He put down the harpsichord, straightened up and replied, "I'm not the same as the three of them!" "
Confucius said, "What does that matter? Just talk about your own ambitions. "
(Zeng) said: "In late spring (the weather is warm), spring clothes have been worn." Five or six adults and six or seven boys went swimming (praying) in the Yi River, enjoying the cool on the dance floor and singing home. "
Confucius sighed and said, "I agree with Zeng Xi!" "
Lutz, You Ran and Gong Xihua all went out, and Ceng Yong finally left. Yao Zeng asked (Confucius), "What about the three of them?"
Confucius said, "I'm just talking about my ambition!"
(Ceng Yong) said, "Why are you laughing at Zhong You?"
(Confucius) said: "We should govern the country with courtesy, but he didn't know how to be modest, so he laughed at him. Didn't You Ran talk about state affairs? Why is 60 or 70 miles or 50 or 60 miles from Fiona Fang not a country? Isn't Gong Xihua talking about national affairs? Sacrificing the ancestral temple, the alliance of governors and meeting the emperor are not major events for governors. What is this? Gong Xihua can only make small pictures for the ministers, so who can make big pictures for the ministers? "
