Zigong said: "Isn't Guan Zhong a benevolent man? When Duke Huan of Qi killed Young Master Jiu, Guan Zhong could not die for him, but instead became the prime minister of Duke Huan of Qi."

What follows? The translation is as follows

Confucius said: "Guan Zhong served as the prime minister of Duke Huan of Qi, dominated the princes, and ruled the world. The people are still enjoying his benefits. Without Guan Zhong, I am afraid we would still be harassed by fools. How could it be? How can you stick to the trivial details of a common man and a married woman? Hang yourself in the ditch without being known."
