"Inside and outside the circle" is our way of life in China.

  Some people say that China people's wisdom in life can only be found by finding a copper coin that the ancients contact every day.

  Copper coins are round, with a square hole inside-a person should be like copper coins, with an inside and an outside circle.

  A classic chair was born, and a Ming-style round-backed chair is the only masterpiece of the most eternal oriental beauty.

  A chair that foreigners may not understand no matter how many years it takes.

  China is the only one in the world, so you definitely deserve it.

  During the reign of Qianlong, Ji Xiaolan believed that "being tactful in life, being upright in heart, being humble without collusion" was the best understanding of the inner excircle.

  "Inner side" refers to the principle of being a man, and "outer circle" refers to the skills of getting along with others. The combination of the two is the way of life for China people.

  If a person is too upright and honest, he will haggle over every penny, and if he has no humility when he meets someone, he will be hit hard and be hindered everywhere.

  If a person is exquisite and tactful, he always wants to harm others and benefit himself, and he will inevitably make others beware everywhere and eventually betray others.

  There is such a story in Zi Zhi Tong Jian: Wang Wei captured ideal city, gave a big banquet, and after three rounds of wine, Wang Wei asked the officials, "Do you think I am a wise king or a bad king?"

  Of course, most of the officials are following suit, knowing that Wang Wei has just made achievements and needs to be praised, so they all say, "The king is certainly a generation of wise kings."

  However, there is a minister named Ren Zuo who is famous for his integrity, but he said, "The king is a bad king."

  Wang Wei refused to accept, endured anger and asked Ren Zuo: "Why do you say this?"

  Ren Zuo replied, "Your Majesty, you won a great victory in this battle and captured the enemy city, but you didn't write down your due military achievements on your brother's head, but gave them to your son, which shows that you are a bad king."

  King Wei was angry and immediately ordered Ren Zuo to be driven out of the house, waiting for his decision.

  Then, he asked the next courtier, and the minister said, "The king is a wise king."

  The king of Wei was disappointed and asked, "Why do you say that?"

  The minister then said, "Only a wise king will attract a direct minister. Now, with a minister like Ren Zuo under your command, you can see that your king is a wise king!"

  Upon hearing this, Wang Wei felt very reasonable, and immediately invited Ren Zuo back to dinner.

  Most officials who simply attach themselves to the meeting are "round and not square" people, with no principles and no ethics.

  Any seat is a person who is "only square and not round". He doesn't look at the occasion when he speaks, which makes the other person humiliating. Such a person is hard to be liked and even prone to death.

  In the end, the minister was a "inner circle". He not only adhered to the correct principle, but also resolved the contradiction and gave the other side a step down.

  There are too many people like Baiguan in the world, and there are also many people like Ren Zuo, but they lack the wisdom of the last adult.

  Su Shi in the Northern Song Dynasty was also eager to do something practical for the court in his early years, but he was relegated many times in his life and his work was limited.

  When Wang Anshi was the prime minister and led the reformists to reform, he was an opposition and wrote poems to satirize the problems in the reform, so he was attacked and demoted.

  A few years later, Sima Guang became prime minister and totally denied Wang Anshi.

  Su Dongpo, however, stood up and said that Wang Anshi's policies were not useless, and some of them were desirable, and turned to attack Sima Guang, so he was hit again and was exiled to Hainan.

  It is well known that Su Dongpo is a fat man. Once Su Dongpo patted his belly and asked his family, "What do you say?" The little maid said it was poetry, the little maid said it was learning, and Su Dongpo shook his head.

  At this time, the concubine smiled at the cloud: "I think the master is full of inappropriate!"

  Su Dongpo is really out of place.

  He thinks independently, has a strong personality, is emotional, naive, straightforward, cares about the country and the people, hates evil as hatred, and keeps his mouth shut when encountering injustice. Although he is not a bad person in essence, he is even a talented person who considers the country, but this character determines that he can only go down in history as a literary talent rather than a political talent.

  In real life, we can't make the inside and the outside circle, just like the word "mouth", which is angular and motionless everywhere. There is no possibility of movement. People who are good at doing things will turn the outside of the word "mouth" into a circle and make it roll, while the essence inside remains unchanged. This is the inside and the outside circle.
