There are two stories of Yan Baby

author:Hangcheng Old Liu

Yan Bao is Yan Zi, the idiom of "Yan Zi makes Chu" should be known to everyone, and I want to say his other two stories.

The first story

One winter, Qi Jinggong asked Yan Bao, who was on the side, to bring the soup over, and Yan Bao said, I am not the minister who serves the soup, and I will not give it to him.

Another time, Qi Jinggong asked Yan Baby to bring the robe over, and Yan Baby said, I am not the minister who takes the robe.

Qi Jinggong was very angry, he said you are my minister, do not take soup, do not take the robe, what a minister.

Yan Bao said, I am a minister of the society, not your minister, and only when I do not make a promise in front of you can I not lose the dignity of the country when I visit.

The second story

Another winter, Qi Jinggong took advantage of Yan Bao's visit abroad to let the people repair the large platform used for viewing ceremonies.

Because of the cold weather, the people were cursing him, saying that they couldn't get by in this country, and that such a cold day would let us build a big platform, and if Yan Bao didn't go abroad, he certainly wouldn't let us do it.

Yan Baby heard about this incident on the way back to China, and immediately went to find Qi Jinggong, who listened to The Baby Feast's advice and said, Then don't build it.

Yan Bao immediately rushed to the construction site, picked up sticks and beat those who were gossiping, while beating, saying that Qi Jinggong was such a holy king, so that each of you had a place to live, and now he wants to build such a platform, and you are still gossiping here.

At this time, the order arrived, saying that Qi Jinggong had withdrawn the order, and everyone could go home and rest.

So the people said that it was better for the king, and he himself realized his mistake and withdrew the order to repair the platform, and Yan Bao not only did not speak for us, but also beat us.

Confucius said that a prince should be courteous and a subject should be loyal.
