Confucius moved to Cai at the age of three, and Wu cut Chen. Chu saved Chen, and the army was in the city. When Chu heard that Confucius was between Chen and Cai, he asked people to hire Confucius. When Confucius was going to pay his respects, Dr. Cai Chen said, "All the sages of Confucius were laughed at by the princes. "Today, I stayed between Chen and Cai for a long time, and all the actions of the doctor were unintentional. Today, Chu, a big country, has come to hire Confucius. Chu used Confucius, Chen and Cai Wei used doctors. "So he and his disciples surrounded Confucius in the wild. No thread, no food. If the follower is ill, he can't succeed. Confucius never forgot to recite string songs. Lutz saw it and said, "Are gentlemen poor? Confucius said, "A gentleman is poor, but a villain is poor. "

Zi Gong left Confucius and said, "Give, and I give to the knower to learn more?" Said, "Nature. Right and wrong? " Confucius said, "No ... give consistently."

Confucius knew that his disciples had a heart, so he called Luz and asked, "The Book of Songs says,' Bandits and tigers led them into the wilderness'. Isn't my way evil? What am I doing here? " Lutz said: "I am not a matter of opinion, and the wise have different opinions." I believe in people's opposition. I don't know. Evil? People don't do whatever they want. " Confucius said, "Yes! By analogy, the benevolent will believe, and there will be Boyi and Shu Qi. If you know what you are doing, you will do it. Is there a prince to do? "

Luz goes out, Zigong comes in. Confucius said, "Here, the poem says,' bandits and tigers lead them into the wilderness'. Isn't my way evil? What am I doing here? " Zi Gong said, "The master's way is too great for the world. Did the master build less? " Confucius said, "In view of this, a good farmer can plow without precision, and a good worker can be skillful without slipping. A gentleman can cultivate his way, regulate his way and unify his way, but not tolerate his way. Today, I don't want to build my road, but I want to be tolerant. Pay, ambition is not far away! "

Zi Gong went out and Yan came back to see him. Confucius said, "Hui, the poem says' bandits and tigers lead them into the wild'. Isn't my way evil? What am I doing here? " Yan Hui said, "The way of the master is so great that the world can't tolerate it. Although, the master pushed, what disease is not allowed? Never meet a gentleman again! It is my ugliness not to cultivate my husband's morality. Husband's road has been overhauled, no need, this is the ugliness of people with countries. What's wrong with it? Never see a gentleman again! " Confucius smiled happily and said, "You have Yan's son! If you earn more money, I will kill you. "

In the third year when Confucius moved to Cai, the army of Wu attacked Chen. Chu sent troops to rescue his father who was stationed in the city. It is said that Confucius is between Chen and Cai, and King Zhao of Chu sent someone to hire Confucius. Confucius is going to visit, and Chen and Cai's doctors are going to say, "Confucius is a smart man, and his accusations and attacks hit the prince's shortcomings." Now he has been in a dilemma between Chen and Cai for a long time, and all doctors don't meet his wishes. Now that Chu is a big country, it sent someone to hire Confucius. If Confucius is used in Chu, it will be dangerous for us to take care of Chen and Cai's doctors. "So he sent someone to surround Confucius in the wild. Confucius couldn't walk and ran out of food. The follower's disciple was tired and hungry and couldn't stand up. But Confucius still taught reading, playing songs, teaching poetry, books, rituals and music, and never stopped. Lutz was very angry. He went to see Confucius and said, "Is a gentleman poor? Confucius said, "A gentleman can stick to poverty without wavering, while a villain who is poor will run amok. "

Zi Gong was full of anger. Confucius said, "Give it to me. Do you think I am a learned man with a memory?" Zi Gong said, "Yes. Isn't it? " Confucius said, "No, I always adhere to a basic principle."

Knowing that his disciples were angry, Confucius summoned Luz and asked, "The poem says,' It's neither rhinoceros nor tiger, but it's busy in the wild. "What's the problem with our theory? Why did we get to this point? Lutz said, "Maybe we haven't reached' benevolence'! So people don't trust us. Maybe we haven't reached' wisdom'! So others don't practice our theory. "Confucius said," Are there any of these reasons? "! Zhong You, let me give you an analogy. If the benevolent must be credible, how can there be Boyi and Shu Qi? If a wise man is sure to work, how can there be a prince? "

Luz went out and Zigong came in to meet him. Confucius said, "Yes, the poem says,' It's neither a rhinoceros nor a tiger, but it's busy in the wild. "What's the problem with our theory? Why did we come to this step? " Zi Gong said: "The teacher's theory is extremely grand. So no country in the world can accommodate you. Can the teacher lower the standard a little? " Confucius said: "Thanks, excellent farmers are good at sowing but can't guarantee a bumper harvest, and excellent craftsmen are good at craftsmanship but can't meet everyone's requirements." A gentleman can understand his own theory, regulate the country with proper usage and govern his subjects with orthodoxy, but it cannot be guaranteed to be accepted by the world. Now you don't practice the teachings you follow, but seek to be accepted by the world. Here, your ambition is too far away! "

Zi Gong went out and Yan Hui came in to see Confucius. Confucius said, "When I come back, I say,' It's neither rhinoceros nor tiger, but I'm busy in the wild. "What's the problem with our theory? Why did we get to this point? Yan Hui said: "The teacher's theory is so grand that no country in the world can accommodate it. Even so, what is there to worry about when teachers promote implementation without being accommodated? Just don't be accommodated, and then show the true nature of a gentleman! It's our shame that the teacher's theory is unclear. The teacher's theory has always been grand and beautiful and has not been adopted, which is a shame for those in power. What are you worried about not being accommodated? Don't be accommodated and show your true colors! Confucius smiled happily: "That makes sense, Yan's child!" If you have a lot of property, I will be your housekeeper. "

So Confucius sent Zigong to Chu for help. King Zhao of Chu sent troops to see Confucius, and Confucius was able to escape.
