(Southern Song Dynasty) Lv Benzhong’s “Official Advice”
[Original Classic]
The only way to be an official is: purity, cautious, and diligence. Knowing these three things can help you protect your position, stay away from shame, gain the best knowledge, and gain the help of the lower.
[Interpretation]
Southern Song official Lu Benzhong said in his book "Official Instrument": "The only way to be an official is to be a polite, to be cautious, and to be diligent." He believed that there are only three rules for being an official, namely to be honest, to be cautious, and to be diligent. He also said that "knowing these three things can help you protect your position, stay away from shame, gain the best knowledge, and get help from the lower level." It means that by abiding by the three laws of "cleanness, prudence and diligence", you can keep your official position and stay away from shame, gain the appreciation of your superiors, and also gain the support of your subordinates.
The three words "clear, cautious, and diligent" are called "the way of being an official is "not easy forever" by later generations. Emperor Kangxi once wrote these three characters and carved stones to promote them, instructing all officials, and used "clear, cautious and diligent" as the standard for evaluating officials.
General Secretary Xi Jinping has always attached great importance to the ethics of party members and cadres. When he was appointed Secretary of the Zhejiang Provincial Party Committee in 2004, he published an article in "Qiushi" "Use Power and Talk about Officials' Ethics and Interactions", pointing out that leading cadres "must use power in accordance with the law, and also use power with virtue. In the final analysis, they must use power to understand official morality." He quoted this sentence from Lu Benzhong's "Official Instrument" and explained it: First, we must be "clean", fair and honest, and clean; second, we must be "careful", carefully consider, be cautious in words and actions; third, we must be "diligent", diligent, studious, and hardworking. He also put forward five standards for good cadres: firm beliefs, serving the people, working diligently and pragmatically, daring to take responsibility, being honest and honest, which can be said to be a modern interpretation of "clean, cautious and diligent".

Sincerely, I want to uphold the imperial court to uphold all officials, and the first priority should be to eliminate the turbid and promote the good and the good.

——January 24, 2006 "Speech at the System Summary and Commendation Meeting of the General Office of the Zhejiang Provincial Party Committee"
[Source] (late Ming and early Qing dynasties) Gu Yanwu's "Letter to Gongsu Nephew"
[Original Classic]
The so-called ministers serve the king with the way, and if they cannot, they will stop. My nephew should repeat this three words, and not be ridiculed in future generations, then he will be decayed and honored. ...If you want to correct the court and correct all officials, you should take the first priority of purging the turbidity and promoting the good, and the foundation is to cultivate integrity.
[Interpretation]
Gu Yanwu, an outstanding thinker and scholar in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties. He never forgot the great cause of restoring the Ming Dynasty and adhered to the national integrity throughout his life. This article is a letter written by Gu Yanwu to Shiqing's nephew Xu Yuanwen.Gu Yanwu advocated throughout his life that "every man is responsible for the rise and fall of the world" and advocated that "a gentleman learns to understand the way and saves the world." Although he was incompatible with the Qing court and never served in his life, he always paid attention to the country and people's livelihood, and he was very kind to his nephew and carefully persuaded him. In the letter, Gu Yanwu first quoted Confucius' words in "The Analects of Confucius": "The so-called ministers serve the king with the Tao, and if they cannot, they will stop." He warned Xu Yuanwen to "serve the king with the Tao". If the ruler does not listen to advice, he will resign and leave. He took what he saw along the way and the horrifying act of local officials taking human lives as an example, and proposed: "If you want to correct the court, you should take the first priority to correct all officials, and the first priority to promote the turbidity and promote the turbidity and promote the turbidity and the foundation is to cultivate integrity." He believed that to correct the court, you must first correct all officials, and the first priority should be to eliminate the turbidity and promote the turbidity and promote the turbidity and the fundamental point is to cultivate and maintain the virtue of integrity.
On January 24, 2006, Xi Jinping, then Secretary of the Zhejiang Provincial Party Committee, talked about "eliminating the turbidity and promoting the good" at the systematic summary and commendation meeting of the General Office of the Provincial Party Committee, said that the Qing Dynasty thinker Gu Yanwu said in "Letter to Gongsu Nephew": "If you want to correct the court to correct all officials, you should take the first priority to purify the turbidity and promoting the good." This means that to promote the country and safe country, you must eliminate evil and promote good, strengthen the righteousness and eliminate evil, and promote righteousness. At present, my country's economy and society are in a period of transformation, various deep-seated contradictions are gradually emerging, and social interest relations are more complex. Whether party members and cadres can be upright, serve the people wholeheartedly, and do things impartially is directly related to the safety and danger of the country. If party members and cadres can be open and upright, they will be the people-oriented and regard the people as their roots. They will maintain the indifferent attitude of "benefits belong to the world and praise belongs to the people", govern well for the people, and benefit the people. Only in this way can the country have hope and the country be more stable. On the contrary, if party members and cadres lose their minds of self-discipline, go with the flow and indulge themselves, they will confuse right and wrong and embark on the evil path, causing harm to the party's cause, and put the country in a historical cycle of "the government is lazy and the officials are successful, and the people are destroyed and the government is still in ruins."
A month later, in the "Zhejiang New Language" column of Zhejiang Daily, Xi Jinping published an article "Exciting the Turbidity and Promoting the Clear and Righteousness", quoting Gu Yanwu's words again. This is enough to show that Xi Jinping has always maintained the way of being an official to correct one's body and be upright. Faced with endless temptations of interests, Chinese Communists must firmly stand, abandon selfish desires, not lose their hearts for fame and fortune, not be obsessed with power, always maintain the noble sentiments of Communists, and stick to the spiritual home of Communists.

Kill an evil person and everyone will be afraid of evil.
———————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————— If a gentleman is in the official position, the governance will be clear; if a treacherous and treacherous interfere in politics, the disaster will be in chaos. Therefore, when a king is responsible for others, one must be careful. The way to obtain people is to respect the virtuous and punish evil. Respect one wise men and then be happy; punish one evil men and others and be afraid of others. In the past, when Lu punished Shaozheng, the flatterers changed their behavior; Yan politely politely politely politely, and the soldiers came, but they were not effective?
[Interpretation]
Lu Jing, grandson of Lu Xun, prime minister of Eastern Wu, second son of Grand Marshal Lu Kang, and brother of Lu Ji and Lu Yun. The Three Kingdoms says that he "has a good bathing body and is willing to study, and he has written dozens of books." Lu Jing's "Dianyu" has ten volumes, "Sui Shu·Jing Ji Zhi" is included in the Confucian category, and has been lost for a long time. The "Quan Shu Zhi Yao" compiled by Wei Zheng of the Tang Dynasty and others is a general summary. "Dict Words" proposes a strategy for governing the country to the Wu Kingdom, which is facing internal and external troubles, and satirizes that the Wu Lord Sun Hao must cultivate politics internally, "stay away from villains and be close to the wise", otherwise the country will be destroyed not far away. This also indirectly reflects the situation of Wu Kingdom's stupidity and villains chaotic politics at that time.
Lu Jing pointed out in "Dict Words": "If Jun Yi is in an official position, he will govern the country with a clear path; if treacherous and treacherous interfere in politics, he will cause trouble." Jun Yi (yì): an outstanding and capable talent; in an official position: an official. It is believed that if the country uses a large number of capable people, its politics will inevitably be clear; if the regime is controlled by treacherous villains, the country will inevitably fall into chaos.Therefore, "the way to obtain people lies in respecting the virtuous and punishing evil." Then, it is proposed that "respecting one wise will make all virtuous people happy; punishing one evil will make all evil fear", which means that respecting a wise man, many wise men will feel relieved; killing an evil man, many evil men will feel fear. He also gave examples to prove its effectiveness: Confucius killed Shao Zhengmao, and the treacherous and slandered people were shocked and changed their behavior; Yan State built a "golden platform" to treat Guo Wei, and the people in the world responded and competed to join him.
"Quanshu Zhiyao" is a collection of ancient Chinese political governance books. The reason why Wei Zheng excerpted Lu Jing's "Dianyu" is because it is both targeted and universal reference significance for governing the country.
Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the central government has insisted on fighting "tigers" and "flies" together. They will fight against corruption and fight against corruption with zero tolerance. General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized that the biggest risks and challenges faced by the Party are corruption and unhealthy practices within the Party. Our determination to punish corruption cannot be shaken at all, and the punishment method must not be soft. He borrowed the ancients' "Punishing one evil will make everyone afraid" to demonstrate the firm determination of the Party Central Committee to comprehensively and strictly govern the Party and severely punish corruption.

If you don’t care about your meticulous actions, you will eventually suffer great virtue.
——October 8, 2014 "Speech at the Summary Conference of the Party's Mass Line Education and Practice Activities"
[Source]
(Ancient times) "Shangshu·Zhou Shu·Hai Mastiff"
[Original Classic]
Western Travel Mastiff, Taibao wrote "Hai Mastiff". Only by defeating Shang, he then went to the Nine Barbarians and Eight Barbarians. The Western Travel Dean (same as "Di") gave the Mastiff, and Taibao wrote "Mastiff" to train him as a king. He said: "...Ah! If you don't be diligent in your morning and night, you will eventually suffer great virtue. If you are nine feet tall in the mountain, you will fail. If you are willing to live in the people, you will be the king of the world."
[Interpretation]
" If you don't be careful with your actions, you will eventually suffer great virtue" comes from "Shangshu·Host Mastiff", which means that if you don't pay attention to the cultivation of small things and small details, you will harm the great virtue in the end and lead to lifelong regrets.
After King Wu of Zhou destroyed Shang, the world was stable, his reputation was prominent, and he came to worship from all directions. A famous dog was tributed by the Western Fan. The Zhao Gongshi (shì) was worried that King Wu would lose his ambition to play with things, so he wrote an article titled "Traveling Mastiff" to persuade him and said the warning above.
King Wu followed Zhao Gong's advice, changed his course, and guarded the country. However, there are indeed negative cases in history where people lose their ambitions and even lose their country. According to the "Records of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty", during the Spring and Autumn Period, Duke Yi of Wei particularly liked cranes, and accompanied the cranes all day long, ignoring the government and not caring about the people's sentiments. He asked the crane to ride in a luxury car, which consumed a lot of money every year, which caused dissatisfaction among ministers and complaints from the people. In 659 BC, when the Northern Di invaded, Duke Yi of Wei ordered the army to resist. The soldiers said angrily: "Since the crane enjoys a high status and treatment, let it go to war!" Duke Yi of Wei had to lead his troops to fight with the Di people in Xingze. Due to uneven military morale, he was defeated and died, which is known in history as "a good crane loses its country." Feng Menglong, the author of "The Religion of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty", wrote a poem and sighed: "I once heard the ancient saying that he would be warded on birds and deserts. Who would have lost his country if a crane was lost. Xingze was filled with phosphorus fire at that time, so why could he ride a crane back to the fairyland?" The "ancient saying that he should be warded on birds and deserts" in the first sentence refers to the story of "Shangshu·Horse Mastiff".
At the summary meeting of the Party’s mass line education and practice activities in 2014, General Secretary Xi Jinping used the ancient saying of “If you don’t be careful in your actions, you will eventually be burdened with great virtue” and required cadres at all levels to start with me and start with small things, keep a close eye on new changes and new problems in the field of work style, and follow up on corresponding countermeasures and measures in a timely manner, so as not to be slow to grasp the situation, not to delay solving problems, and not to resolve conflicts. Anyone who tests the law with his own eyes must resolutely correct and investigate. It is necessary to ensure that party members and cadres not only dare not be infected with unhealthy trends, but also cannot, and do not want to be infected with unhealthy trends, so that the party’s style of work will be fully purified.

[Source]
(Eastern Han Dynasty) Xun Yue's "Shenjian·Political System"
[Original Classic]
[Original Classic]
First prohibition, first prohibit the body and then the person; if not, first prohibition, first prohibit the person and then the person.If you are good at banning it, you will be as good as it can. If you are tempted by others, and want to be the public, and behave in deceitful to the officials, and be honest in the people. Seek all your own spare parts, take away what you lack, sacrifice what you want, blame others for what you are difficult, and complain about what you are difficult.
[Interpretation]
"Shen Jian" is a political and philosophical work by thinker Xun Yue in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. "Political system" is the key to governance. In "Shenjian·Political System", Xun Yue proposed: "Those who are good at banning should first prohibit their bodies and then others; those who are not good at banning should first prohibit others and then others." This means that people who are good at using bans to govern society first demand themselves according to bans, and then ask others for help; those who are not good at banning should first require others to do what they want according to bans, and then ask themselves. Xun Yue used this to ask the rulers to set a good moral example, and to correct others first, so that orders can be implemented and prohibited, which is a "good prohibition".
Xun Yue's view inherits the Confucian idea that "the person who is upright will do it without ordering; the person who is not upright will not obey even if he is not upright." More than 400 years later, Emperor Taizong of Tang was a model of "good ban". He said: "If you want to be at peace with the world, you must first correct yourself. There is no one who is upright and has a shadow that is upright, and the upper rule is in chaos." Wei Zheng also said to Emperor Taizong: "Practice yourself without giving priority to others, seeking yourself without giving blame to others." It can be seen that leaders take the lead in using discipline and laws to restrain themselves and set an example by themselves is not only a leadership method, but also a virtue of governing.
At the Second Plenary Session of the 18th Central Commission for Discipline Inspection, General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized that problems in work style are definitely not trivial matters. If we do not resolutely correct bad habits and allow them to develop, it will be like an invisible wall to separate our party from the people, and our party will lose its foundation, bloodline, and strength. He used the principle that those who are good at banning should first ban themselves and then others", and asked leading cadres at all levels to set an example and set an example. They should make what they said, and fulfill what they promised, and unswervingly lead the anti-corruption and integrity construction to a deeper extent.

substances must first rot and then worms will grow.
——November 17, 2012 "Speech during the first collective study of the Political Bureau of the 18th CPC Central Committee"
[Source]
(Northern Song Dynasty) Su Shi's "Fan Zeng Lun"
[Original Classic]
Chen She was the one who won the people, and Xiang Yan and Fusu. The Xiang family was the rise of the people, to establish the heart of the King Huai of Chu, and the princes rebelled against him, to kill Emperor Yi. Moreover, the establishment of Emperor Yi has become the leader of the plan. The survival of Emperor Yi is not only due to the prosperity and decline of Chu, but also the same blessings and blessings as the growth; the existence of Emperor Yi is not only due to the decline of Emperor Yi, but the growth can last for a long time. Yu killed Qingzi’s champion, which is a sign of killing Emperor Yi. If he kills Emperor Yi, he is doubting the root of the growth. How could he have to wait for Chen Ping? Things must first rot and then worms will grow; people must first doubt and then slander them. Even though Chen Ping is wise, how can he be the unquestionable master?
[Interpretation]
"Fan Zeng Lun" is an early historical theories article by Su Shi, included in Volume 10 of "Gu Wen Guanzhi". In the article, Su Shi, in response to Chen Ping's idea of using a plan to discord Xiang Yu and Fan Zeng, made a strange and novel idea: "Things must first rot, and then insects will grow; people must first doubt, and then slander them." He made an example: things always rot themselves first, and then insects will parasitize, indicating that things always have weaknesses first and then invade by external objects. It is pointed out that Xiang Yu was suspicious by nature and believed in slander that he was exploited by the enemy and thus threw away the world.
"Things must rot first, and then insects will grow" contains profound philosophy. This ancient saying conforms to the principle of dialectical materialism: in the process of development of things, external factors are the conditions for change, internal factors are the basis for change, and external factors work through internal factors. Internal causes are the first reason for the development and changes of things. The key to corruption is that corrupt people have low moral qualities, poor self-control, and are easily tempted by material and money. Therefore, we must respect ourselves, reflect on ourselves, and warn ourselves, resist temptation and stand the test.
The construction of party style and clean government is a major political issue that the majority of cadres and the masses have always paid attention to. In the first collective study speech of the Political Bureau of the 18th Central Committee, General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out with the ancient saying "things must be corrupted first, and then insects will grow", "In recent years, some countries have caused public grievances, social unrest, and the collapse of the regime due to long-term accumulated contradictions, among which corruption is a very important reason.A large number of facts tell us that the more corruption problems become more and more serious, they will inevitably eventually perish the party and the country! We must be alert! "Remind all comrades of the Party that opposing corruption, building honest politics, and maintaining the health of the Party has always been a clear political stance that our Party has always adhered to.

proverb says: Don't use the third master, you will abolish your job and destroy your family. The lie is a young master, your son-in-law is a son-in-law, and your wife and brother are uncle. The third one may not be able to use talent. There are ways to cover up the cleverness and cleverness within, and there are concerns about throwing into the rat and avoiding the weapon outside. Where power is power is attached, power is attached; where power is attached, power is even more powerful. If you use brush and ink, you will sell and sell tickets; if you use document, you will bribe and change right and wrong; if you use warehouses, you will go light and go heavy, and you will move in the west and east, and it will be difficult to list. Even if you ask the general to investigate the miscellaneous tasks, the details will be too small, and there will be a short hair value, and there will be a reputation for tarnishing the official, so there will be no one. Yes. Things are not very corrupt, and they don’t get into the ears; when you get into the ears, it’s hard to catch your guard. Using the law will hurt grace, and using the grace will ruin the law. The three are the same, and the son is especially serious. Those who forget their relatives when they see profit. If you intend to love your relatives, and do your own things to make profits, you will inevitably fall into unrighteousness, which is dangerous.
[Interpretation]
"Don’t use the third master, and abolish the third master, and lose the family" is a widely circulated proverb in the Qing Dynasty. Among them, the "third master" refers to the young master, the son-in-law, the uncle, that is, the son, the son-in-law, the wife and brothers. The intention is to warn officials that these three types of people must not be used, otherwise they will lose their official position and dismiss their jobs and ruin their careers.
The staff of the Qing yamen, such as friends and Changsui, were mostly personal. Their employment did not require government selection and examination, but was based on their special personal relationship with prefectures and county officials. Therefore, the "San Ye" was very common in the yamen. The "San Ye"'s close relatives easily made them unconventional and fearless. "Whether the power is always attached to them; where the power is attached to them, the power is even more powerful." They easily rely on the relationship between father and son, son-in-law, and uncle with officials, and pretended to be powerful and did things nonsense: "If you use your pen and ink, you will sell the execution and sell the tickets; if you use your document, you will bribe and change the right and wrong; if you use your warehouse, you will go lightly and go heavily, and you will move in the west and cover the east. "Wang Huizu, a Shaoxing master in the Qianlong and Jiaqing period of the Qing Dynasty, worked as a staff member in prefectures and counties for 30 or 40 years. Later, he worked as an official in prefectures and counties for several years. He personally saw it and knew the harm of using the "Three Masters". He believed that these three types of people "may not necessarily have no talent available", but officials must never rely on them as their confidants and entrusted them with important tasks, because these people "have a way to deceive themselves and be wise inside, and have the intention to be afraid of taking risks outside", which led to "the matter is not very corrupt, and it is not easy to catch the eye; it is difficult to catch the eye." Therefore, he shouted to eliminate this accumulated corruption.
At the Sixth Plenary Session of the 18th Central Commission for Discipline Inspection, General Secretary Xi Jinping quoted this proverb from the Qing Dynasty and pointed out with pain: "From the corruption cases investigated and dealt with in recent years, corruption in family style is often an important reason for leading cadres to seriously violate discipline and law. "To this end, he asked every leading cadre to place family style construction in an important position, be honest and self-cultivated, and manage the family with integrity. While managing himself well, he strictly requires his spouse, children and staff around him.

(Ming Dynasty) "Official Proverbs" engraved stone
[original text]
Officials do not fear my strictness but my integrity. The people do not obey my ability but my ability but my public; if the people do not accept my ability, my public will not dare to be arrogant; if the officials are honest, officials will not dare to deceive; if the public is wise, integrity will bring power.
[Interpretation]
According to research, the words in "Official Instrument" were first spoken by Cao Duan, a beginner of Ming Dynasty. Later, the governor of Shandong Nianfu changed his words and sentences slightly, adding "Public gives power to wisdom, integrity gives power", and written in Gongqiu as his motto for official duties.
I am rich (1395-1464), and served in the five dynasties of Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Renzong of the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Xuanzong of the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Xianzong of the Ming Dynasty, and Emperor Xianzong of the Ming Dynasty. He successively served in local and central departments. No matter where he went, he was honest and upright, and remained unswerving, thus becoming a famous minister of a generation.In the 14th year of Hongzhi (1501), Gu Jingxiang, the governor of Tai'an, carved the "Official Instructions" in the Tai'an Prefecture to insult officials. During the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, Yan Xishen, the governor of Tai'an, passed it on to descendants as the family tradition of the Yan family. The three generations of the Yan family strictly abide by the "Official Adages" and four governors were appointed in a row. Every time they take up their new duties, they take the monument to warn themselves.
The thirty-six-character "Official Admonition" can be said to be a warning every word and a medicine stone every sentence. The most important thing about interpreting the foundation of an official is two points: one is public; the other is integrity. It means: the subordinates respect me not whether I am strict but whether I am honest; the people believe in me not whether I have talent but whether I do things fairly. If fairness is the people, they dare not be disrespectful, and if honest, their subordinates dare not be deceived. Only by being fair in your affairs can you distinguish right from wrong, and only by being honest in your life can you establish authority.
Public power is the first surname public, and use power for the people. General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized at the Central Political and Legal Work Conference that "publicity brings wisdom, integrity brings power", which is not only a requirement for political and legal cadres, but also a earnest instruction to all comrades in the Party. Fairness and integrity are the basic morals that rulers should possess. These two points are simple to say, but they are not easy to truly do. We must stick to professional conscience, adhere to the rule of law, institutional constraints, and open operation, persevere and persevere in doing so.

[Original Classic]

New pine is not a thousand feet tall, but evil bamboo should be cut ten thousand rods.

Three years of running through nothing, and it is difficult to walk on earth.
[Interpretation]
"There is a work on the way to Chengdu's ashed cottage, let's send five poems to Duke Yan Zheng first" is a group of poems written by Du Fu on the way back to Chengdu from Langzhou in the second year of Guangde in the reign of Emperor Daizong of the Tang Dynasty (764). This is the fourth poem. The title of the poem "Yan Zheng Gong", namely Du Fu's friend Yan Wu, was once named Duke of Zheng for his military merits. In 762, because the Jiannan military envoy Xu Zhinong rebelled in Chengdu, Du Fu once left Chengdu Caotang and took refuge in Zizhou, Langzhou and other places. In February 764, Yan Wu once again served as the Yin and the governor of Jiannan in Chengdu. He wrote a letter to invite Du Fu, and the poet decided to return to Chengdu.
"The new pine is not very high, but the evil bamboo should be cut ten thousand poles" is the second couplet of the poem. "New Pine" refers to the four small pine trees planted by the poet in front of the cottage in Chengdu. The poet later described it in the poem "Four Pines" written by him when he returned to Chengdu: "When the four pine trees first move, they are probably three feet strong. Don't come for three years, and stand as if they are growing." The poet hopes that they will grow rapidly into thousands of feet tall trees and pour passionate love into them. The poet hates those "evil bamboos" that invade and hinder the growth of new pine trees, believing that even if there are thousands of poles, they must be cut off.
For these two lines of poetry, most predecessors believed that it was not only about pine and bamboo, but also about it. The poet likes pine trees because they are tall and tall, and do not change with the world; the poet hates bamboo because they grow in chaos everywhere and are willing to go. "Thousand feet" and "Ten Thousand Rods" are all exaggerated words, and it is not enough to express the poet's strong love and hate. Therefore, Yang Lun, a native of the Qing Dynasty, said in the side note of "Du Shi Jingquan": "It also contains the intention of supporting good and ill-fighting." Shen Deqian of the Qing Dynasty also believes that "there is the intention of supporting gentlemen and suppressing villains in his words." The poet is in a chaotic world and feels that the country's efforts are difficult to use by society, and various ugly forces compete to make a debut and celebrate. The poet sighed and linked it to it, and his love and hate were beyond words.
At the Sixth Plenary Session of the 18th Central Commission for Discipline Inspection, General Secretary Xi Jinping quoted Du Fu's poem "The new pine is not as high as a thousand feet, and evil bamboo should be cut ten thousand poles", which demonstrated the Party Central Committee's high attention and firm determination to build the Party's style and clean government and the fight against corruption. He demanded that the "four winds" be corrected continuously, and to grasp the words "constant" and "long" frequently, deeply and for a long time. Eliminate evil affairs and never allow rebound or recovery.

[Interpretation]
"Shangda Xisheren" is a poem written by the Tang Dynasty poet Meng Jiao in five-character ancient style. Da Xi is the compound surname; the sacrificial person is the official position. Ganye Poetry is a kind of poem written by ancient literati to promote themselves, similar to the current self-recommendation letter. Meng Jiao's life was a tragic fate and his career was bumpy. Therefore, he hoped to show his talents and ambitions by presenting poems to Daxisheren in order to recommend it.
"There are few suns and moons in the northern mountains, and the grass and trees are bitter in wind and frost." The first two lines point out the natural environment of Beimang Mountain in Luoyang where the poet is located, and indirectly highlight the poet's inner loneliness and sorrow. "The poor scholar is in the heavy Kan, and he eats plums and has sour intestines." Kan is dangerous. The Kan hexagram in "The Book of Changes" is that the two Kans are heavy, and "heavy Kan" means that there are dangers and dangers and obstacles. These two sentences describe the social environment in which the poet lives. "All common people are round, and the whole body is still learning square." Going round means being smooth. People in the world are all smooth in their lives, but they are still square and do not follow the customs. "I am always afraid that the people will be destroyed, and the spring leaves will turn yellow in autumn." The poet said unwaveringly, but if he leaves the world, he will inevitably fall into the dilemma of being frustrated in the official career and being slandered and abandoned. "The great wise man is a master of high learning, and the public candle is selfless." The great wise man refers to the people of Da Xishu. The great sage is as righteous as a mirror hanging high, and the candle shines on the earth without selflessness. The last two sentences "The dark room is not yet dawn, and I walk in a faint cry" echoes the previous text, and once again describes my own embarrassment.
Regarding "Public Candles are selfless and light", according to the "Zhupo Poetry Talk" of the Southern Song Dynasty poet Zhou Zizhi: During the Northern Song Dynasty, there was a prefect of Bozhou surnamed Li who was extremely honest and had clear distinction between public and private. One night, he suddenly received a letter from a boss in the capital. He quickly ordered the donor to light up the candle to read. Unexpectedly, after half of his reading, he asked the officer to blow out the candles from the official family and light the candles from his own family. It turned out that the second half of the letter talked about the recent situation of his family in Beijing, so "there is no letter from the family under the candle."
In his speech at the symposium commemorating the 120th anniversary of Comrade Zhou Enlai's birth, General Secretary Xi Jinping highly praised Comrade Zhou Enlai's noble character of selflessness and the whole world for public use with the words "The great wise man is a master of high learning, and the public is selfless." He pointed out that Comrade Zhou Enlai is an outstanding model of strict discipline and integrity, and called on all comrades of the Party to learn from Comrade Zhou Enlai, remember that the power in his hands is granted by the Party and the people, and is used to serve the people, be upright, be honest, consciously accept supervision, refuse corruption, never get involved, and be a dignified Communist.

"The poor scholar is in the heavy Kan, and he eats plums and has sour intestines." Kan is dangerous. The Kan hexagram in "The Book of Changes" is that the two Kans are heavy, and "heavy Kan" means that there are dangers and dangers and obstacles. These two sentences describe the social environment in which the poet lives. "All common people are round, and the whole body is still learning square." Going round means being smooth. People in the world are all smooth in their lives, but they are still square and do not follow the customs. "I am always afraid that the people will be destroyed, and the spring leaves will turn yellow in autumn." The poet said unwaveringly, but if he leaves the world, he will inevitably fall into the dilemma of being frustrated in the official career and being slandered and abandoned. "The great wise man is a master of high learning, and the public candle is selfless." The great wise man refers to the people of Da Xishu. The great sage is as righteous as a mirror hanging high, and the candle shines on the earth without selflessness. The last two sentences "The dark room is not yet dawn, and I walk in a faint cry" echoes the previous text, and once again describes my own embarrassment.
Regarding "Public Candles are selfless and light", according to the "Zhupo Poetry Talk" of the Southern Song Dynasty poet Zhou Zizhi: During the Northern Song Dynasty, there was a prefect of Bozhou surnamed Li who was extremely honest and had clear distinction between public and private. One night, he suddenly received a letter from a boss in the capital. He quickly ordered the donor to light up the candle to read. Unexpectedly, after half of his reading, he asked the officer to blow out the candles from the official family and light the candles from his own family. It turned out that the second half of the letter talked about the recent situation of his family in Beijing, so "there is no letter from the family under the candle."
In his speech at the symposium commemorating the 120th anniversary of Comrade Zhou Enlai's birth, General Secretary Xi Jinping highly praised Comrade Zhou Enlai's noble character of selflessness and the whole world for public use with the words "The great wise man is a master of high learning, and the public is selfless." He pointed out that Comrade Zhou Enlai is an outstanding model of strict discipline and integrity, and called on all comrades of the Party to learn from Comrade Zhou Enlai, remember that the power in his hands is granted by the Party and the people, and is used to serve the people, be upright, be honest, consciously accept supervision, refuse corruption, never get involved, and be a dignified Communist.
