How do you untie this silk thread ball(治絲益棼)
In the Spring and Autumn Period of China,
the name of the younger brother of the King of the Wei Kingdom was (Zhou Xu).
He killed his brother through a military
coup and made himself king.
When he became king, he immediately wanted
to start another foreign war.
The king of the Lu Kingdom discussed this
matter with a minister. His name is (Zhongzhong).
Asked the king of the Lu Kingdom.
How do you comment on this newly appointed
king? Do you think his military operations can be successful?
Zhong Zhong replied.
I think governing a kingdom and seizing
power in a kingdom require two different strategies.
The seizure of power in a kingdom can be
achieved by force.
But long-term governance of this country
requires leaders to have the ability to enable people in the entire kingdom to
live and work in peace and contentment.
If you want to untie a messy ball of
thread, the most important thing is to find the beginning of the thread first,
and then untie it slowly and carefully.
War is like fire. Fire can help us cook,
but if we don’t pay attention, fire may also destroy our houses.
So I speculate
His military operation will definitely
fail.
Because he has just become a king, he
should first appease the people in the kingdom and consolidate his leadership
position.
War should be the last resort.
He started the war at will, and I think all
the people in the kingdom, even those close to him, do not support this war.
He will fail.
The king nodded in agreement.
In less than a year, (Zhou Xu) died in a military
coup. He was killed by a minister.

中國的春秋時代，衛王國的國王的弟弟名字叫做(州吁)。
他透過軍事政變殺了他的哥哥，自立為王。
當他當上國王後，他立刻想要發起另外一場對外的戰爭。
魯王國的國王與一位大臣討論這件事情。他的名字叫做(眾仲)。
魯王國的國王問。
你如何評論這個新上任的國王呢。你認為他的軍事行動能夠成功嗎。
眾仲回答。
我認為治裡一個王國與奪取一個王國的政權，這需要兩種不同的策略。
奪取一個王國的政權可以憑藉武力就能達成。
但是要長久的治理這個國家就需要領導者具備讓整個王國的人都能夠安居樂業的能力。
如果你要解開一團雜亂的絲線球，你最重要的是先找到這團絲線的起頭，然後細心的慢慢解開。
戰爭就像是火，火可以幫助我們煮飯，但若是我們沒有留意，火也有可能會燒毀我們的房屋。
因此我推測。
他的這場軍事行動一定會失敗。
因為他剛當上國王，他應該先安撫王國內的百姓，鞏固自已的領導地位。
戰爭應該是最不得已的手段。
他隨意地發動戰爭，我認為王國內的所有民眾甚至連他親近的人都不支持這一場戰爭。
他一定會失敗。
國王點頭表示贊同。
一年時間不到，(州吁)死在一場軍事政變中。他被一個大臣所殺。
這句成語被用來提醒我們，遇見一個問題時必須找到正確的解決問題的方法，不然我們可能會使問題更加複雜。。
親愛的朋友，你聽完這個故事有怎樣的啟發或有怎樣的想法呢。
你目前有沒有遇到讓你覺得無法解決的問題嗎?你是否應該安靜地去思考為何發生這個問題的起因呢?
我期待這故事能讓你產生一些新的收穫。
