    The relationship between the quality of the text is actually the relationship between the essence and the form.

    Zigong believes that the essence and form are unified, for example, once a person said to Zigong that if he is a gentleman, he should directly show his morality and integrity, why bother talking about etiquette and taste. Zigong sighed and said, "Oh sir, why do you say that gentleman, you can't take it back if you say it (the horse is hard to chase, that's what he said here); "The quality of Yu Wen, the quality of Wen You, the shell of the tiger and leopard, the shell of the dog and the sheep". It means that the essence is the form, and the form is also the essence, and the skin of the tiger and leopard is the same as the skin of the dog and sheep, but the difference is that the fur of the tiger and leopard has patterns, while the skin of the dog and sheep does not.

    And the gentleman is the tiger and the leopard, the villain is the dog and the sheep, it is precisely because we are the gentleman, so we have to decorate ourselves with patterns, if there are no these forms and patterns, then the gentleman and the villain, what is the difference between the skin of the tiger and the leopard and the skin of the dog and sheep?

    For example, at that time, some people criticized Mozi's book for not being literary, and Han Fei gave two examples to refute, one was that Qin Bo married a daughter, saying that Qin Guo wanted to marry a princess to Jin State, but they chose many beautiful palace maids as dowries, and one was dressed better than the other, and as a result, the son of Jin liked the palace maid and snubbed the princess. The second is the story of buying and returning pearls, which I won't say much here. Han Fei means that essence and form are opposites, and if the form is too beautiful, people will ignore the essence, which is the mistake made by the second story; Compared with the form, the essence is more important than the form, so we should not pursue the form too much, but should highlight the essence, which is the mistake made by the first story, so Han Fei concluded that the content and the essence are opposed to each other, just like "the ice and charcoal are different furnaces for a long time, and the cold and heat do not come from time to time", so if the essence is a very beautiful thing, there is no need to package it (He's Bi is not decorated with five colors, and the Pearl of Sui Hou is not decorated with silver yellow).

    Han Fei put forward this point of view mainly to oppose the complicated ritual system and ritual culture advocated by Confucianism.

    Zigong believes that "literature" is as important as "quality". When people have good capital, they should also have appropriate forms corresponding to it.

    Han Feizi, on the other hand, emphasizes "literature" over "quality", believing that a gentleman should like the essence and dislike the ornamentation, and believes that if the essence is beautiful, there is no need for external modification, and the external decoration can only prove that the essence is not beautiful.

    Zigong believes that "literature" is as important as "quality". Zhuangzi believed that "Wen" would damage "quality".

    1) Thorn Zicheng said: "It's just a gentleman's quality, why is it a text?" Zigong said: "It's a pity, the master said that the gentleman is also!" Tongue-in-cheek. The quality of the text is also, and the quality is still the text. The sheath of the tiger and the leopard, the sheath of the dog and the sheep. (Analects of Yan Yuan).

    2) "The text is extinguished, the heart is indulged, and then the people are confused, and there is no way to return to the beginning with their temperament." (Zhuangzi Xuan).

    Note] indulgence refers to the concealment of the natural nature of the mind or the essence of simplicity.

    According to the first paragraph, it can be determined that Zigong believes that the quality of the text is equally important, and according to the "text extinguishes the quality" in the second paragraph, it can be determined that Zhuangzi believes that the "text" will damage the "quality".
