The emperor gave him the posthumous title "Wenzheng".

The Doctrine of the Mean is an ancient Chinese idealist philosophical perspective, derived from the "Golden Mean" of Confucian culture. The golden mean is the road of life, the fundamental theory for career success, life and health. It basically includes three levels of theory:
The first level of theory: the mean is not partial, and the mean is not easy. It means not deviating from one's goals and opinions in life. This is a recipe for consistent success. Confucius once said: "The Doctrine of the Mean is a virtue, and it has reached its end! The people have been around for a long time."
The second level of theory: refers to the righteousness and peace. People need to maintain uprightness and peace. If they lose their uprightness and peace, it must be caused by excessive joy, anger, sadness, and joy. Anger can only be cured by joy. Excessive happiness can only be cured by propriety. The method of keeping etiquette is to respect. As long as you maintain a heart of respect or awe, justice and peace will last forever, and people's health will be protected.
The third level theory: the middle finger means good, yongyong, and middle. It means that a person should have a skill and be a useful talent; it also means that a person should stick to his position and seek his position in his position.
