After Qu Yuan was exiled, he did not see him King Huai of Chu for three years. He devoted his talents to serving the country and was loyal, but he was suppressed by slanderous officials. Distraught and unsure of what to do. So he went to see Taidivination (Chief of Divination Officials) Zheng Zhanyin, and said to him, "I have doubts in my heart, please sir, make a decision for me."
In the film and television drama, Qu Yuan made his own wreath before jumping into the river. He quickly straightened the straw, wiped the turtle shell , and asked: "I wonder if you have any advice."
Qu Yuan said:
"Should I rather be sincere, simple and loyal? Or should I be busy with worldly entertainment so as not to be poor?
Should I rather weed weeds and cultivate as much as I can? Or should I rather be weeded and cultivate as much as possible? Should we travel among dignitaries all day long in order to gain prestige and reputation? Should we rather speak out and lead to danger? Or should we live in the secular world and live in peace? Or should we stay pure and honest? Si (flattery) , forcing a smile to please the princess?
Should I rather be honest and upright in order to achieve physical and mental purity? Or should I rather be hypocritical and tactful and surround others?
Should I rather walk alone like a thousand-mile horse? Or should we float like wild ducks and keep pace with the current? Or should we follow the footsteps of the inferior horses and fly high with the swans? Or should we compete with the chickens and ducks for food? Which one is auspicious, which one is dangerous? Where should I go?
Zhan Yin said: "The ruler is short, the inch is long; the things are short, the wisdom is unclear; the numbers are not clear, the spirit is not clear. Use your heart and do your will. Gui Cecheng cannot know this. "
