From the specific paragraphs, the full text can be divided into three parts:
In the first part (the first paragraph), it is written that King Liang Hui raised questions about his "dedication to the country" and "the people do not add more".
In the second part ("Mencius said to him" to "there is no hope that the people will be more than the neighbors"), according to the desire of King Hui of Liang to make "the people more numerous" through political means, Mencius helps him realize that politically compared with his neighbors, he has only done some good things to relieve the disaster, and there is no difference in essence, so that the article naturally transitions to the third part.
In the third part (paragraphs 3 to 5), Mencius put forward his own idea of "benevolent government" according to the psychology of King Hui of Liang to explore how to make "the people more abundant" and the grand desire of the monarch to "unify the world" during the Warring States period.
Mencius was good at using metaphors to reason, and his language seemed to be calm and unhurried. For example, the metaphor of "50 steps and 100 steps" did not solve the people's problems, and compared with the neighboring countries, although there is a difference in degree, but the essence is the same, and they cannot do the "royal road" to support the people.
Another major feature of Mencius's language is that it uses more even sentences, so the sentence structure is neat, majestic, and has the eloquent momentum of a commanding height. For example, in the third part of this article, when Mencius talks about the principle of "making the people multiply", he renders his own ideas vividly, showing King Hui of Liang a beautiful prospect of a royal paradise.
Fifty steps and a hundred steps" is meaningful: King Liang Hui's "moving his people" and "moving his millet" are not satisfactory to the rulers of neighboring countries, and there is no difference in substance, but only in degree. The implication here is that King Hui of Liang's belligerence and small benevolence did not make the people more; In order to increase the number of people, it is necessary to practice "benevolent government" and practice "royal road".
