Someone may be eavesdropping on the other side of the wall(隔牆有耳)
During the Spring and Autumn Period in
China, there was an outstanding statesman in the Qi Kingdom. His name is (Guan
Zhong).
He is known as one of the most capable
prime ministers in Chinese history.
After his death, his students wrote a book
in which his thoughts and philosophy were recorded.
In this book, there is a record of his
admonition to the king of Qi Kingdom.
A good king should remember a simple but
important truth. This truth is that it is the most important thing that all the
common people can live happily.
A good king should delve into the causes of
misfortune and good fortune.
A good king should be cautious and do
everything justly.
There are two proverbs in ancient times.
You need to pay attention to what you say,
because someone may be eavesdropping across a wall.
You need to pay attention to everyone
around you, because some of these people have bad intentions.
These malicious people may use people close
to you to spy on your secrets, and these malicious people may join forces with
those who were once powerful but now lose power and cause you harm.
A good king should stay away from slander.
A good king should guard against treason
and hypocrisy.
A good king should restrict wicked people
from entering the system of the central government.
If you do, our kingdom will be
strengthened, and you will be able to sit comfortably in this position.
This idiom means someone eavesdropping
across the wall.
This idiom is used to remind us that even
very secret things can be leaked.
Dear friends, what inspiration or thoughts
do you have after listening to this story?
Have you ever had the experience of leaking
secrets? Do you maintain a certain level of defense against everyone around
you?
I hope this story will give you something
new to gain.
隔牆有耳(Someone may be eavesdropping on the
other side of the wall)
中國的春秋時代，齊王國有一位傑出的政治家。他的名字是(管仲)。
他被稱為中國歷史上最有能力的宰相之一。
他過世之後，他的學生們寫了一本書，這本書中記錄了他的思想與哲學。
這本書裡，紀錄了他勸誡齊王國的國王的一段話。
一個好的君王應該記得一個簡單但卻重要的道理，這個道理就是讓所有的老百姓可以幸福的生活是最重要的事。
一個好的君王應該深入研究災禍與福氣所發生的原因。
一個好的君王應該保持謹慎的態度去公正的處理任何事情。
古代有兩句諺語。
你要注意你所說的話，因為可能隔著一面牆正有人在偷聽。
你要注意你身邊的所有人，因為這些人中有些人並不懷好意。
這些懷抱惡意的人可能會利用你的身邊所親近的人來刺探你的祕密，這些懷抱惡意的人可能會結合那些曾經得勢但現在失勢的人一起合作並造成你的危害。
一個好的君王應該遠離讒言。
一個好的君王應該防止奸詐與偽善。
一個好的君王應該限制奸邪的人進入中央政府的體系。
如果你這樣做，我們王國就會鞏固，你也才能安然地坐在這個位置上。
這句成語的意思是隔着牆有人偷聽。
這句成語被用來提醒我們，就算非常祕密的事也有可能會泄漏。
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。
你是否有過洩漏秘密的經驗嗎?你是否會對周遭的人都保持一定程度的防備呢?
我期待這故事能讓你產生一些新的收穫。
