【Biography】
二十八年春，公如晋，将如乾侯。子家子曰：“有求于人，而即其安，人孰矜之？其造于竟。”弗听。使请逆于晋。晋人曰：“天祸鲁国，君淹恤在外。君亦不使一个辱在寡人，而即安于甥舅，其亦使逆君？”使公复于竟而后逆之。
In the spring of the twenty-eighth year, the Duke was like the Jin Dynasty, and the general was like the Marquis of Qian Dynasty. Zijiazi said: "If you ask for help from others, you will find peace. Who is the person who cares about it? It is created by the end." He didn't listen. Please go against the Jin Dynasty. The people of Jin said: "It is God's fault for the country of Lu, and you are overwhelmed. You will not let anyone humiliate me, but even if you are content with your nephew and uncle, he will rebel against you?" He ordered the Duke to be restored to Jing and then rebelled against him.
二十八年春季，鲁昭公到晋国去，将要到乾侯去。子家子说：“有求于别人，而又跑去安安稳稳地住着，有谁还来同情您，还是到我国和晋国的边境上等着好。”昭公不听，派人请求晋国来人迎接。晋国人说：“上天降祸鲁国，君王淹留在外，也不派一个人来问候寡人，而是跑去安安稳稳地住在甥舅的国家里，难道还要派人到齐国迎接君王？”让昭公回到鲁国的边境上，然后派人迎接。
In the spring of the twenty-eighth year, Duke Zhao of Lu went to Jin and was about to go to Qianhou. Zijiazi said: "You have asked for help from others, but you have gone away to live in peace. If anyone comes to sympathize with you, it is better to wait at the border between our country and the state of Jin." Duke Zhao did not listen and sent someone to ask someone from the state of Jin to come to meet him. The people of Jin said: "God has brought disaster to the country of Lu. The king stayed outside and did not send anyone to greet me. Instead, he went to live peacefully in his nephew's country. Do we still need to send people to Qi to welcome the king?" Let Zhaogong return to the border of Lu and send people to greet him.
晋祁胜与邬臧通室，祁盈将执之，访于司马叔游。叔游曰：“《郑书》有之：‘恶直丑正，实蕃有徒。’无道立矣，子惧不免。《诗》曰：‘民之多辟，无自立辟。’姑已，若何？”盈曰：“祁氏私有讨，国何有焉？”遂执之。祁胜赂荀跞，荀跞为之言于晋侯，晋侯执祁盈。祁盈之臣曰：“钧将皆死，慭使吾君闻胜与臧之死以为快。”乃杀之。夏六月，晋杀祁盈及杨食我。食我，祁盈之党也，而助乱，故杀之。遂灭祁氏、羊舌氏。
Jin Qi Sheng and Wu Zang were in the same room, and Qi Ying took charge of him and visited Sima Shuyou. Shuyou said: "The Book of Zheng says: 'The evil is upright and the ugly is right, but the real people have disciples.' If there is no way to establish, people will inevitably be afraid. "Poetry" says: 'There are many people, but there is no self-reliance.' What can I do?" Ying said: "Qi's private pursuit, how can there be a country?" So he insisted. Qi Sheng bribed Xun Shu, and Xun Shu told the Marquis of Jin about it, and the Marquis of Jin took Qi Ying. Qi Ying's ministers said: "All Jun generals are dead, so that my king will feel happy when he hears the victory and Zang's death." So he killed them. In the sixth month of summer, Jin killed Qi Ying and Yang Shiwo. If you eat me, you will be part of Qi Ying's party, and you will contribute to the chaos, so I will kill him. Then the Qi family and the Yangyu family were destroyed.
晋国的祁胜和邬臧互相交换妻子。祁盈准备逮捕他们，去问司马叔游。叔游说：“《郑书》有这样的话：‘嫉害正直，这样的人多的是。’无道的人在位，您恐怕不能免于祸患。《诗》说：‘百姓的邪恶很多，自己不要再陷入邪恶。’暂时不执行，怎么样？”祁盈说：“对祁氏私家的讨伐，和国家有什么关系？”于是就逮捕了他们。祁胜贿赂荀跞，荀跞为他在晋顷公面前说话。晋顷公逮捕了祁盈，祁盈的家臣说：“同样是一起被杀，宁可让我们主子听到祁胜和邬臧的死讯，我们也可以痛快一下。”就杀了这两个人。夏季，六月，晋顷公杀了祁盈和杨食我，杨食我，是祁盈的党羽，并且帮着祁盈作乱，所以杀了他，于是就灭亡了祁氏、羊舌氏。
Qi Sheng and Wu Zang of Jin State exchanged wives with each other. Qi Ying was going to arrest them and asked Sima Shuyou. Shu Youyou said: "The Book of Zheng has this saying: 'There are many people who are jealous of integrity.' If an unscrupulous person is in power, you may not be immune to disaster. "Poetry" says: 'There are many evils among the people, so don't fall into evil again.' How about not executing it for the time being?" Qi Ying said: "What does the crusade against the Qi family have to do with the country?" So he arrested them. Qi Sheng bribed Xun Shu, and Xun Shu spoke for him in front of Duke Qing of Jin. Jin Qinggong arrested Qi Ying. Qi Ying's retainers said: "We were also killed together. We would rather let our master hear the news of Qi Sheng and Wu Zang's death, so that we can have a good time." So they killed these two people. In the summer, in June, Jin Qinggong killed Qi Ying and Yang Shiwo. Yang Shiwo was Qi Ying's party member and helped Qi Ying to cause trouble, so he killed him, thus destroying the Qi family and the Yangshe family.
初，叔向欲娶于申公巫臣氏，其母欲娶其党。叔向曰：“吾母多而庶鲜，吾惩舅氏矣。”其母曰：“子灵之妻杀三夫，一君，一子，而亡一国、两卿矣。可无惩乎？吾闻之：‘甚美必有甚恶，’是郑穆少妃姚子之子，子貉之妹也。子貉早死，无后，而天钟美于是，将必以是大有败也。昔有仍氏生女，鬒黑而甚美，光可以鉴，名曰玄妻。乐正后夔取之，生伯封，实有豕心，贪婪无餍，忿类无期，谓之封豕。有穷后羿灭之，夔是以不祀。且三代之亡，共子之废，皆是物也。女何以为哉？夫有尤物，足以移人，苟非德义，则必有祸。”叔向惧，不敢取。平公强使取之，生伯石。伯石始生，子容之母走谒诸姑，曰：“长叔姒生男。”姑视之，及堂，闻其声而还，曰：“是豺狼之声也。狼子野心，非是，莫丧羊舌氏矣。”遂弗视。
At the beginning, my uncle wanted to marry Shen Gong Wuchen, and his mother wanted to marry one of his clan members. Shu Xiang said: "My mother has many concubines and few concubines, so I will punish my uncle's family." His mother said: "Zi Ling's wife killed three husbands, one king and one son, and destroyed a country and two ministers. Is there no punishment? I heard that "There must be something evil in every beauty," he was the son of Zheng Mu's concubine Yao Zi, and the sister of Zi Chao. Zi Chao died early and had no heirs, and because Tian Zhong was beautiful, he was bound to have a daughter in the past. , the hair is black and very beautiful, the light can be seen, and the name is Xuanzang. Hou Kui took it, and gave birth to Bo Feng. She really has the heart of a pig, greedy and unsatisfied, and anger has no end. It is said that Hou Yi will destroy it. Therefore, it is not necessary to sacrifice. Moreover, the death of three generations and the destruction of common sons are all things. What should I do if my husband has a beautiful thing that can be moved to someone else? If it is not virtuous, there will be misfortune. Ping Gong forced his envoy to take it and gave birth to Bo Shi. When Bo Shi was born, Zi Rong's mother went to visit her aunts and said, "Uncle Si has given birth to a boy." The aunt looked at him and came to the hall. Hearing the sound, he returned and said, "That's the sound of a jackal. The ambition of a wolf son is not right. Don't lose the sheep tongue family." So she looked away.
起初，叔向想要娶申公巫臣的女儿做妻子，他的母亲要他娶她的亲族。叔向说：“我的母亲多而庶兄弟少，舅家女儿不易生子，我把这作为鉴戒了。”他的母亲说：“巫臣的妻子杀死三个丈夫，一个国君，一个儿子，灭亡一个国家，使两个卿逃亡了，能够不作为鉴戒吗？我听说：‘很美丽必然有很丑恶的一面。’那个人是郑穆公少妃姚子的女儿，子貉的妹妹，子貉早死，没有后代，而上天把美丽集中在她身上，必然是要用她来大大地败坏事情。从前有仍氏生了一个女儿，头发稠密乌黑而非常美丽，头发的光泽可以照见人影，名叫‘玄妻’。乐官之长后夔娶了她，生下伯封，心地和猪一样，贪婪没有个满足，暴躁乖戾没有限度，人们叫他大猪。有穷后羿灭了他，夔因此而不能得到祭祀。而且夏、商、周三代的被灭亡，公子申生的被废，都是由于美色为害。你娶她做什么呢？有了特别美丽的女人，就完全可以使人改变。如果不是极有道德正义的人娶她，就必然有祸。”叔向害怕，不敢娶了。晋平公强迫叔向娶了她，生了杨食我。杨食我刚生下来，子容的母亲跑去告诉婆婆，说：“大弟媳妇生了个男孩。”叔向的母亲走去看看，走到堂前，听到孩子的哭声就往回走，说：“这是豺狼的声音。豺狼似的男子，必然有野心。不是这个人，没有人会毁掉羊舌氏。”于是就不去看他。
At first, Shu Xiang wanted to marry the daughter of Shen Gong, the witch minister, but his mother wanted him to marry her kin. Shu Xiang said: "I have many mothers but few concubine brothers. It is difficult for my uncle's daughter to have children. I take this as a warning." His mother said: "The wife of the witch minister killed three husbands, a king and a son, destroyed a country, and caused two ministers to flee. Can this not be used as a warning? I heard : ‘Being beautiful must have an ugly side.’ That person was the daughter of Yao Zi, the concubine of Duke Mu of Zheng, and the sister of Zi Raccoon. Zi Raccoon died early and had no offspring. God concentrated her beauty on her, so she must have used her to greatly ruin things. Once upon a time, there was a daughter named Yi who had thick hair. She was dark and very beautiful, and her hair was so shiny that she could see the human figure. She was named "Xuan Wife". Hou Kui, the chief music official, married her and gave birth to Bo Feng. He was as greedy as a pig and had no limit to his violent temper. People called him Big Pig. Hou Yi killed him, so Kui could not be sacrificed. . Moreover, the destruction of the Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties and the dethronement of the young master Shen Sheng were all caused by beauty. What do you do with a particularly beautiful woman? If you are not a very moral and righteous person, you will be in trouble." Shu Xiang is afraid and dare not marry. Duke Ping of Jin forced Uncle Xiang to marry her and gave birth to Yang Shiwo. As soon as Yang Shiwo was born, Zirong's mother ran to tell her mother-in-law, "The eldest brother-in-law has given birth to a boy." Shu Xiang's mother went to have a look. When she walked to the front of the hall, she heard the child's cry and walked back. She said, "This is the sound of a jackal. A man like a jackal must be ambitious. No one would destroy the Yangyu family except for this person." So she stopped looking at him.
秋，晋韩宣子卒，魏献子为政。分祁氏之田以为七县，分羊舌氏之田以为三县。司马弥牟为邬大夫，贾辛为祁大夫，司马乌为平陵大夫，魏戊为梗阳大夫，知徐吾为涂水大夫，韩固为马首大夫，孟丙为盂大夫，乐霄为铜鞮大夫，赵朝为平阳大夫，僚安为杨氏大夫。谓贾辛、司马乌为有力于王室，故举之。谓知徐吾、赵朝、韩固、魏戊，余子之不失职，能守业者也。其四人者，皆受县而后见于魏子，以贤举也。
In autumn, Jin and Han Xuanzi died, and Wei Xianzi came to power. The Qi family's land was divided into seven counties, and the Yangtishi family's land was divided into three counties. Sima Mimo was the doctor of Wu, Jia Xin was the doctor of Qi, Sima Wu was the doctor of Pingling, Wei Wu was the doctor of Gengyang, Zhi Xuwu was the doctor of Tu Shui, Han Gu was the doctor of Ma Shou, Meng Bing was the doctor of Yu, Le Xiao was the doctor of Tongdi, Zhao Chao was the doctor of Pingyang, and Liao An was the doctor of the Yang family. It was said that Jia Xin and Sima Wu were powerful in the royal family, so they were promoted. It is said that I know Xu Wu, Zhao Chao, Han Gu and Wei Wu, and the rest of my sons have not failed in their duties and can keep their duties. The four of them were all accepted by the county and later met Wei Zi, and they were promoted as virtuous.
秋季，晋国的韩宣子死了，魏献子执政。把祁氏的土田分割为七个县，把羊舌氏的土田分割为三个县。司马弥牟做邬大夫，贾辛做祁大夫，司马乌做平陵大夫，魏戊做梗阳大夫，知徐吾做涂水大夫，韩固做马首大夫，孟丙做盂大夫，乐霄做铜鞮大夫，赵朝做平阳大夫，僚安做杨氏大夫。认为贾辛、司马乌曾经给王室出过力，所以举拔他们。认为知徐吾、赵朝、韩固、魏戊，是卿的庶子中不失职、能够保守家业的人。另外四个人，都先接受县的职务然后进见魏献子，是由于贤能而加以提拔的。
In the autumn, Han Xuanzi of Jin died and Wei Xianzi came to power. The Qi family's land was divided into seven counties, and the Yangyu family's land was divided into three counties. Sima Mimo will be the doctor Wu, Jia Xin will be the doctor Qi, Sima Wu will be the doctor Pingling, Wei Wu will be the doctor Ganyang, Zhi Xuwu will be the doctor Tushui, Han Gu will be the doctor Ma Shou, Meng Bing will be the doctor Yu, Le Xiao will be the doctor Tongdi, Zhao Chao will be the doctor Pingyang, and Liao An will be the doctor Yang. It was believed that Jia Xin and Sima Wu had contributed to the royal family, so they were promoted. It is believed that Xu Wu, Zhao Chao, Han Gu, and Wei Wu are among the concubines of Qing Dynasty who have not neglected their duties and can protect the family property. The other four people all accepted county posts first and then went to see Wei Xianzi. They were promoted because of their merit.
魏子谓成鱄：“吾与戊也县，人其以我为党乎？”对曰：“何也？戊之为人也，远不忘君，近不逼同，居利思义，在约思纯，有守心而无淫行。虽与之县，不亦可乎？昔武王克商，光有天下。”其兄弟之国者十有五人，姬姓之国者四十人，皆举亲也。夫举无他，唯善所在，亲疏一也。《诗》曰：‘唯此文王，帝度其心。莫其德音，其德克明。克明克类，克长克君。王此大国，克顺克比。比于文王，其德靡悔。既受帝祉，施于孙子。’心能制义曰度，德正应和曰莫，照临四方曰明，勤施无私曰类，教诲不倦曰长，赏庆刑威曰君，慈和遍服曰顺，择善而従之曰比，经纬天地曰文。九德不愆，作事无悔，故袭天禄，子孙赖之。主之举也，近文德矣，所及其远哉！”
Wei Zi said to Cheng Hu: "I am in Wuye County, do people think of me as a party?" He said to him: "Why? Wu is a human being. He never forgets the king when he is far away, and he does not push for the same when he is close. He thinks of benefits and righteousness, and he is pure in alliances. He has a heart and does not engage in sexual conduct. Even if it is with the county, isn't it the same? In the past, King Wu conquered Shang, and Guang had the world." There are five out of ten people in the country of his brothers, and forty people in the country with the surname Ji, all of them are married. There is no other thing in the husband's career, only good things, closeness and distance. "Poetry" says: "Only this King Wen, the emperor can read his heart." Mo Qide's sound is his virtue, but his virtue is clear. To defeat the enemy is to defeat the class; to defeat the leader is to defeat the leader. The king of this big country, Keshun Kebi. Compared with King Wen, his virtue is extremely regrettable. After receiving the emperor's blessing, he gave it to his grandson. ’ The heart that can control righteousness is called Du, the virtue is correct and harmonious is called Mo, the one who shines in all directions is called Ming, the one who is diligent and selfless is called Class, the one who teaches tirelessly is called Chang, the one who appreciates and celebrates the power of punishment is called Lord, the one who is kind and universally obedient is called Obey, the one who chooses the good and hesitates is called Bi, the longitude and latitude of heaven and earth are called Wen. He has nine virtues and does not make mistakes, and he does things without regrets. Therefore, he has the fortune of heaven, and his descendants will rely on him. The Lord's actions are as close to literature and virtue as they are far away! "
魏献子对成鱄说：“我把一个县给了戊，别人会以为我是偏袒吗？”成鱄回答说：“哪里会呢？戊的为人，远不忘国君，近不逼同事，处在有利的地位上想到道义，处在困难之中想到保持纯正，有保持礼义之心而没有过度的行动，即使给了他一个县，不也是可以的吗！从前武王战胜商朝，广有天下，他的兄弟领有封国的十五人，姬姓领有封国的四十人，都是举拔自己的亲属。举拔没有别的条件，只要是善的所在，亲密、疏远都是一样的。《诗》说：‘只有这位文王，上帝审度了他的内心，认定了他的美德名声，他的德行在于是非明辨，是非明辨就能为善，就能为人师长做人君王，成为这个大国的君主，能使四方顺服。与文王一样，他的德行，从没有悔恨。既承受了上帝的福佑，还要延及到他的子子孙孙。’内心能制约于道义叫做‘度’，德行端正反应和谐叫做‘莫’，光照四方叫做‘明’，勤于施舍没有私心叫做‘类’，教导别人不知疲倦叫做‘长’，严明赏罚显示威严叫做‘君’，慈祥和顺使别人归服叫做‘顺’，选择好的而跟从叫做‘比’，用天地作经纬叫做‘文’。这九种德行不出过错，做事情就没有悔恨，所以承袭上天的福禄，以利于子子孙孙。现在您的举拔，已经接近文王的德行了，影响会很深远的啊！”
Wei Xianzi said to Cheng Qi: "I gave a county to Wu, will others think I am showing favoritism?" Cheng Qi replied: "How could it be so? Wu is a man who never forgets the king, is close to his colleagues, thinks of morality when he is in a favorable position, thinks of maintaining purity when in trouble, and has the heart to maintain etiquette and justice without excessive actions. Even if I give him a county, isn't it okay? In the past, King Wu defeated Shang. The emperor has a vast empire, his brothers have fifteen people, and the Ji people have forty people, they are all his relatives. There are no other conditions for promotion, as long as it is good, closeness and distance are the same. "Poetry" said: "Only this King Wen, God has examined his heart and recognized his reputation for virtue. His virtue lies in his ability to distinguish right from wrong. He can do good by distinguishing right from wrong, and he can do good deeds." Being a human king and becoming the monarch of this great country can make everyone obey. Like King Wen, his virtue has never been regretful. Not only has he received God's blessing, it will also extend to his descendants. 'Being able to control morality in the heart is called 'du', being virtuous and responding harmoniously is called 'mo', being diligent in giving without selfishness is called 'kind', and being tireless in teaching others. It is called 'Long', showing majesty with strict rewards and punishments is called 'Jun', being kind and obedient is called 'Shun', choosing what is good and following it is called 'Bi', and using the heaven and earth as the latitude and longitude is called 'Wen'. These nine virtues do not make mistakes, and there is no regret in doing things, so you can inherit the blessings from God for the benefit of your descendants. Now your promotion is close to the virtue of King Wen, and the influence will be far-reaching!
贾辛将适其县，见于魏子。魏子曰：“辛来！昔叔向适郑，鬲蔑恶，欲观叔向，従使之收器者而往，立于堂下。一言而善。叔向将饮酒，闻之，曰：‘必鬷明也。’下，执其手以上，曰‘昔贾大夫恶，娶妻而美，三年不言不笑，御以如皋，射雉，获之。其妻始笑而言。贾大夫曰：“才之不可以已，我不能射，女遂不言不笑夫！”今子少不扬，子若无言，吾几失子矣。言不可以已也如是。’遂知故在。今女有力于王室，吾是以举女。行乎！敬之哉！毋堕乃力！”
Jia Xin will adapt to his county and meet Wei Zi. Wei Zi said: "Xin Lai! In the past, my uncle Xiang Shizheng was scornful of evil. He wanted to watch my uncle Xiang, and asked him to put away his utensils. He went and stood in the hall. One word was good. My uncle Xiang was drinking wine. When he heard it, he said: 'It must be clear.' He went down and held his hand. Above, it is said, "In the past, Dr. Jia was evil, but he married a beautiful wife. He kept silent for three years, and then he hunted Rugao and shot pheasants. His wife started to laugh and said, "It's so talented that I can't shoot, so the girl didn't talk or laugh at her husband!" "My son is young and unworthy, and if he has no words, I will almost lose him. It's like this if I can't speak.' Then I know why. Today's daughter is powerful in the royal family, so I will raise her up. Go ahead! Respect her! Don't fall down, that's your strength!"
贾辛将要到他的县里去，进见魏献子。魏献子说：“辛，过来！从前叔向到郑国去，鬷蔑氏得丑，想要观察叔向，就跟着收拾器皿的人前去，而站在堂下，说了一句话，说得很好。叔向正要喝酒，听到了鬷蔑的话，说：‘一定是鬷蔑。’走下堂来，拉着他的手上堂，说：‘从前贾大夫长得丑，娶了个妻子却很美，三年不说不笑。贾大夫为她驾着车子去到沼泽地，射野鸡，射中，她才笑着说话。贾大夫说：“才能是不能没有的，我要是不能射箭，你就不说不笑了啊！”现在您的外貌不扬，您如果再不说话，我几乎错过和您见面的机会了。话不能不说，就像这一样。’两个人就像老朋友一样。现在你为王室出了力，我因此举拔你。动身吧！保持着恭敬，不要损毁了你的功劳。”
Jia Xin is about to go to his county to see Wei Xianzi. Wei Xianzi said: "Xin, come here! Once upon a time, when Shu Xiang went to the state of Zheng, Ma Ming was ugly. He wanted to observe Shu Xiang, so he followed the people who were packing the utensils. He stood in the hall and said something very good. When Shu Xiang was about to drink, he heard what Ma Ming said and said, 'It must be Ma Ming.' He walked down the hall and took me. He held his hand and said: "In the past, Dr. Jia was ugly, but he married a beautiful wife. He didn't talk or laugh for three years. Dr. Jia drove her to the swamp and shot pheasants. She only smiled when he shot. Dr. Jia said, "Talent is inevitable. If I can't shoot, you won't talk or laugh!" "Now your appearance is not good. If you don't speak, I will almost miss the opportunity to meet you. We have to say it, just like this.' The two of them are like old friends. Now that you have contributed to the royal family, I promote you for it. Let's go! Stay respectful and don't damage your achievements."
仲尼闻魏子之举也，以为义，曰：“近不失亲，远不失举，可谓义矣。”又闻其命贾辛也，以为忠：“《诗》曰：‘永言配命，自求多福’，忠也。魏子之举也义，其命也忠，其长有后于晋国乎！”
When Zhongni heard about Wei Zi's move, he thought it was righteous, and said: "If you are close, you will not lose your relatives, and if you are far away, you will not lose your actions. This can be said to be righteous." He also heard that his life was Jia Xin, and he thought it was loyalty: ""Poetry" said: 'Always say that you are worthy of your destiny, and you will seek more blessings.' This is loyalty. Wei Zi's move is also righteous, and his life is also loyal. He will have descendants in the Jin Kingdom!"
孔子听到魏献子举拔的事，认为合于道义，说：“举拔近的而不失去亲族，举拔远的而不失去应当举拔的人，可以说是合于道义了。”又听说他命令贾辛的话，认为体现了忠诚，说：“《诗》说，‘永远符合于天命，自己求取各种福禄’，这是忠诚。魏子举拔合于道义，他的命令又体现了忠城，恐怕他的后代会在晋国长享禄位吧！”
When Confucius heard about Wei Xianzi's promotion, he thought it was moral and righteous. He said: "It is moral and righteous to promote those who are close without losing relatives, and to promote those who are far away without losing those who should be promoted." He also heard what he ordered Jia Xin and thought it was righteous. He showed his loyalty and said: "The Book of Songs says, 'Always comply with the destiny and seek all kinds of blessings for yourself.' This is loyalty. Wei Zi's promotion is in line with morality, and his orders also reflect loyalty to the city. I'm afraid his descendants will enjoy their positions in the Jin Kingdom for a long time!"
冬，梗阳人有狱，魏戊不能断，以狱上。其大宗赂以女乐，魏子将受之。魏戊谓阎没、女宽曰：“主以不贿闻于诸侯，若受梗阳人，贿莫甚焉。吾子必谏。”皆许诺。退朝，待于庭。馈入，召之。比置，三叹。既食，使坐。魏子曰：”吾闻诸伯叔，谚曰：‘唯食忘忧。’吾子置食之间三叹，何也？”同辞而对曰：“或赐二小人酒，不夕食。馈之始至，恐其不足，是以叹。中置，自咎曰：‘岂将军食之，而有不足？’是以再叹。及馈之毕，愿以小人之腹为君子之心，属厌而已。”献子辞梗阳人。
In winter, people in Ganyang have prisons, and Wei Wu cannot break them, so they go to prison. His clan bribed many female musicians, and Wei Zi will accept them. Wei Wu said to Yan Mi and Nu Kuan: "The Lord has heard that he will not bribe the princes. If you accept a bribe from someone from Jianyang, don't bribe him much. My son will definitely remonstrate." They all agreed. Withdrew from the court and stayed in court. Feed it in and call it in. Comparison, three sighs. After eating, sit down. Wei Zi said: "I heard from my uncles that the proverb says: 'I forget my worries only when I eat.' My son sighed three times while eating, why?" With the same words, he said to him: "Maybe I will give the two villains wine and not eat in the evening. When the food comes, I'm afraid they won't. "It's enough," he sighed. He blamed himself and said, "Why did the general eat it, but it was not enough?" Then he sighed again. I would like to treat the villain's belly as a gentleman's heart. "Xianzi Cigan Yangren.
冬季，梗阳人有诉讼，魏戊不能判断，把案件上报给魏献子。诉讼一方的大宗把女乐送给魏献子，魏献子准备接受。魏戊对阎没、女宽说：“主人以不接受贿赂名闻于诸侯，如果收下梗阳人的女乐，就没有比这再大的贿赂了。您二位一定要劝谏。”两个人都答应了。退朝以后，在庭院里等待。送饭菜进来，魏献子叫他们二人吃饭。等到摆上饭菜，两个人三次叹气。吃完了，让他们坐下。魏献子说：“我从我伯父、叔父那里听说过：‘只有吃饭的时候忘记忧愁。’您二位在摆上饭菜的时候三次叹气，为什么？”两个人异口同声说：“有人把酒赐给我们两个小人，昨天没有吃晚饭。饭菜刚送到，恐怕不够吃，所以叹气。上菜上了一半，就责备自己说：‘难道将军让我们吃饭会不够吃？’所以再次叹气。等到饭菜上完，愿意把小人的肚子作为君子的内心，刚刚满足就行了。”魏献子辞谢了梗阳人的贿赂。
In winter, people in Gengyang had a lawsuit, and Wei Wu could not judge, so he reported the case to Wei Xianzi. Da Zong, one of the parties to the lawsuit, gave the female singer to Wei Xianzi, and Wei Xianzi was ready to accept it. Wei Wu said to Yan Mei and Nü Kuan: "My master is famous among the princes for not accepting bribes. If he accepts a girl from Gengyang, there will be no greater bribe than this. You two must advise." Both of them agreed. After leaving the court, wait in the courtyard. After bringing the food in, Wei Xianzi asked them to eat. When the food was served, the two of them sighed three times. After eating, let them sit down. Wei Xianzi said: "I heard from my uncle and uncle: 'You can only forget your sorrows when you eat.' You two sighed three times when the food was served. Why?" The two people said in unison: "Someone gave wine to us two little people. We didn't eat dinner yesterday. The food was just delivered. I was afraid that there was not enough to eat, so he sighed. Halfway through the meal, he blamed himself and said, "The general asked us to eat." So he sighed again. When the meal was finished, he was willing to treat the villain's stomach as a gentleman's heart. "Wei Xianzi declined the bribe from Gengyang.
