Why did Confucius only blame Ran You and not Ji Lu

From a historical point of view, Confucius preferred Ran You and hated Ji Lu, and was naturally very angry that Ran You did not advise Ji Sun, and Zilu had no right to advise at that time, so it was really unreasonable to blame Zilu.

The words of Confucius were spoken to both of them. It's just that Ji Lu didn't plead. Confucius didn't say much to him.

Confucius did not reproach Ji Lu.

Yi Zhongtian's interpretation of "Ji's Will Cut Away": Why did Confucius severely reproach Ran You? The text points out the political ideas of Confucius:

Do not suffer from widowhood and inequality, do not suffer from poverty but suffer from anxiety, cover all without poverty, and without widowhood, peace and tranquility" and the strategy of governing the country: "It is since the cultivation of virtue." If it comes, it will be safe. ”

Moreover, Confucius said: "A gentleman who is sick and a husband must give up his desires and must do it." And Ran You said, "Today's husband is gone, and it is close to Fei." If you don't take it now, the future generations will be worried about your descendants. "That's exactly what it is.

The Ji clan is about to attack the vassal state. Ran You and Zilu saw Confucius and said, "The Ji clan will use force against Zhuan.

Confucius said: "Never guess what you want!" Isn't that to blame you?

Quite a moment, the first king once appointed him to preside over the sacrifice of Dongmeng Mountain, and it is in the territory of our Lu State, which is the vassal who is in danger with the Lu State, why should he attack it? Ran You said: "That Ji Sun wants to be so thousand, neither of us wants to."

Confucius said, "Ran Qiu! The sage Zhou Ren has a saying:

Able to exert their own strength to take office; If not, it's time to resign. For example, when a blind man is in danger, he does not support him; If you are about to fall and don't help you, then why use an assistant? Besides, you're wrong.

The tiger and rhinoceros escaped from the fence, and the tortoise shell Meiyu was destroyed in the box, who is to blame for this? ”

Ran You said: "The city wall is strong, and it is very close to Ji Sun's mining land. If you don't occupy it now, you will definitely leave a scourge for your children and grandchildren in the future.

Confucius said, "Ran Qiu! The gentleman hates the attitude of avoiding and saying that he is greedy but must find another excuse.

I have heard that whether it is a prince of a country or a doctor with a family (fief), you don't have to worry about not having much wealth, you only need to worry about unequal wealth; There is no need to worry about too few people, only about instability. If wealth is average, there is no poverty; If you live in peace, there will be no shortage of people; If you are stable, you will not be in danger.

In doing so, the people from afar will not be submitted, so they will carry forward the culture and education to attract them. When they come, they must be relieved of the mountains. Now Zhong You and Ran Qiu are assisting Ji Sun, and people from afar do not submit, but they cannot be induced by Wenzhi education; The country is shattered, but it cannot be preserved; Instead, they want to use force within their borders.

I'm afraid that Ji Sun's sorrow is not in the moment, but in the Xiao Wall. ”
