Strictness is Safeness
Cao Nai in Ming dynasty had to be an official in the district at his early years Once he slept over at a ruined temple on the journey of escorting a female prisoner who possessed natural beauty He was attracted while looking at her Therefore he wrote Cao Nai shouldn’t do that constantly on paper in order to remind himself to resist the temptation of doing something immoral He wrote and burned over and over again the whole night Disciplining himself with the words till the dawn Hereafter in his official career Cao Nai often restrained himself with the words then he became a generation of famous prime minister eventually
In the warring states period the prime minister Gongyi Xiu of Lu loved eating fish the most People rushed to buy fish to present to him but he did not accept any of those firmly His disciples didn’t understand the reason he said I have to do things according to their means as long as I accept their fish Then it is hard to avoid violating the law and orders of the country
If I was dismissed can I eat the fish again So I will not be dismissed if I don’t accept others’ fish it is the way that I can serve myself with fish for a long time
Two ancient stories although ageold can still make people ponder One resists
woman’s beauty the other refuses being bribed They both originate from selfdisciplined to strictness so they can both be safe and smooth This enlightens people profoundly you should require yourself strictly this is not only your duty to be a person and to be an official but also the guarantee of peaceful life
