The long river of history is running endlessly, there are calm waves, there are also waves, let Xiaobian take you into history and understand history.
During the Warring States period, the monarch of Zhongshan clearly recognized the difference in human nature. One day, the monarch of Zhongshan invited the courtiers, and one of the big dishes was lamb soup. During the banquet, everyone pushed cups and cups, staggered and staggered, so that it was not lively, and the little eunuch in charge of dividing the soup served mutton soup to each minister next to the table. The milky white soup is soaked with dark red lamb nuggets, and it is really delicious to drink.
At this time, there was a small episode, the chef made one less lamb soup, and when it was the turn of the doctor Sima Zi period, the mutton soup was just gone. Throughout the banquet, everyone relished the mutton soup, and only Sima Zi looked at it with bated eyes. If it were changed, others would not have taken this matter to heart at all. A bowl of soup is just a bowl, if you don't drink it, you can't drink it, and there are so many other dishes. But the narrow-minded Sima Zi period was not a taste in his heart, and he said in his heart: "As a doctor, I am a high-ranking and powerful person, and I have followed the monarch for so many years. Now the monarch doesn't take me seriously at all, and doesn't even give me a bowl of mutton soup. ”
The more Sima Ziqi thought about it, the more angry he became, and he actually fled the Zhongshan Kingdom overnight and defected to the Chu State. In front of the King of Chu, he constantly said how the king of Zhongshan was good at wine and greed, fainted and unscrupulous, and harmed the people. The King of Chu was ambitious, and he had long wanted to clean up the eye-catching Zhongshan Kingdom. Sima Zi's words were in the middle. Soon, the King of Chu really launched an army to attack the Zhongshan Kingdom. Sima Zi did his best to advise the King of Chu and leaked many of the military secrets he had to the King of Chu.
The Zhongshan State was a small country, and it could not resist the fierce offensive of the Chu State, not to mention the internal traitor sima zi period. Without much effort, the Chu army broke through the capital of zhongshan. The king of Zhongshan had to abandon the city and flee, dodging the pursuing soldiers all the way, and was overwhelmed. When he learned that the cause of the incident was a small bowl of mutton soup, he regretted it. Knowing this, it would be good to make one more bowl in the first place.
Along the way, the soldiers around the Zhongshan monarch either died or fled, and only two people followed them without abandoning. The King of Zhongshan was grateful to them and asked them why they were doing this. The two men said: "We are brothers, and a few years ago our hometown suffered a famine and there was no grain harvest, and our father was about to starve to death. You happened to pass by, gave us a bag of grain, and saved our father's life. Father was grateful and warned us to repay you well. Hearing these words, the King of Zhongshan could not help but feel very emotional, he said: "Making others resentful is not the size of the matter, but whether it hurts others." Making others grateful is not the size of the matter, but whether others are or not. I perished because of a bowl of mutton soup, and because I saved my life because of a bag of dry food, people's hearts are really unpredictable. ”
Although Sima Ziqi was a high-ranking official, he was resourceful. But for a bowl of mutton soup, he was able to treason against the enemy and hook up with the enemy to attack the homeland. Those two brothers were just ordinary soldiers, but they knew en tu bao and saved the King of Zhongshan at a critical moment. This fully shows that the level of a person's moral character has nothing to do with birth, status, and culture, but has to do with cultivation. Culture may not be cultivated, only good cultivation can reflect the brilliance of human nature.
