He is an outstanding and admirable man(翩翩公子)
During the Warring States Period of China,
there was a famous nobleman in the Zhao Kingdom whose name was (Zhao Sheng).
There was a very famous historian in the
Han Dynasty in China, and his name was (Sima Qian).
(Sima Qian) In the history book he wrote,
he gave (Zhao Sheng) a high evaluation.
(Zhao Sheng) is an outstanding and
admirable man. He lives in a chaotic era. His ability and character are high.
In the history book written by (Sima Qian),
there is a story about him.
There was a famous prime minister in the
Qin Kingdom whose name was (Fan Sui).
He was born in the Kingdom of Wei, and when
he was young, he was almost beaten to death because he was misunderstood by a
minister of the Kingdom of Wei. Later, he fled to the Qin Kingdom.
The name of the minister who nearly killed
him by this misunderstanding was (Wei Qi).
The Qin Kingdom was the most powerful
kingdom at that time, and after he became the prime minister of the Qin
Kingdom, he wanted revenge.
The king of Qin Kingdom also supported his
idea.
The king of Qin Kingdom put pressure on Wei
Kingdom to arrest (Wei Qi) and hand over (Wei Qi) to Qin Kingdom.
(Wei Qi) After hearing the news, he fled to
the Kingdom of Zhao, where he hid in the house of one of his good friends. His
good friend is (Zhao Sheng), he is the Prime Minister of Zhao Kingdom, his
influence is very large, even the king respects his opinion very much.
The king of Qin Kingdom received
information that (Wei Qi) was hiding in (Zhao Sheng)'s house.
He wrote a letter to (Zhao Sheng).
I have heard that you are an outstanding
man of great ability and character, and I would like to befriend you, so I
would like to invite you to visit my kingdom for a few days. I will receive you
with the highest specifications.
(Zhao Sheng) agreed to the invitation.
After he arrived in the capital of the Qin
Kingdom, the king of the Qin Kingdom held a banquet for several days in a row,
and they had a good chat at the banquet.
A few days later, the king spoke to him at
a banquet.
The current Prime Minister of our country
is (Fan Sui), a person I respect very much.
I heard that he has an enemy named (Wei Qi)
who lives in your house now.
I want to ask you to send someone to bring
him to the Qin Kingdom, we want to see him.
(Zhao Sheng) After hearing these words, he
knew that he was in a very dangerous situation.
If he refuses the king's request, he may
not be able to return to the Zhao Kingdom alive.
If he agrees to the king's request, his
good friend (Wei Qi) will die in the Qin Kingdom.
He was silent for a while. He made a
decision, he replied.
Why does a man still associate with his
former low-status and impoverished friends after he has gained power, after he
has had a lot of money?
The reason this man does this is because he
has not forgotten his deep friendship with his friends.
(Wei Qi) is my good friend. Even if he is
at my house, I will never hand him over, not to mention that he is not at my
house at all.
He decisively refused the request of the
king of the Qin Kingdom.
This idiom means that a man is outstanding
and admirable.
Dear friends, what inspiration or thoughts
do you have after listening to this story?
If you were him, what choice would you
make? How do you feel about betrayal?
I hope this story will give you something
new to gain.

翩翩公子(He is an outstanding and admirable
man)
中國的戰國時代，趙王國有一個著名的貴族，他的名字叫做(趙勝)。
中國漢王朝有一個非常著名的歷史學家，他的名字是(司馬遷)。
(司馬遷)在他寫的歷史書中，他給了(趙勝)很高的評價。
(趙勝)是一個傑出又令人敬佩的男人，他活在一個混亂的時代，他的能力與品德都很高。
在(司馬遷)寫的歷史書中，紀載了一個他的故事。
秦王國有一個著名的宰相，他的名字叫做(范睢)。
他出生在魏王國，在他年輕的時候，因為被一個魏王國的大臣誤會，差點被打死。後來他就逃亡到秦王國。
這個誤會差點打死他的大臣的名字叫做(魏齊)。
秦王國是當時最強大的王國，他當上秦王國的宰相後，他便想要報仇。
秦王國的國王也支持他的想法。
秦王國的國王便向魏王國施壓，要求魏王國的國王逮捕(魏齊)然後把(魏齊)交到秦王國。
(魏齊)聽到著個消息後，他便逃亡到趙王國，他躲藏在他的一個好朋友的的家裡。他的這個好朋友就是(趙勝)，他是趙王國的首相，他的勢力非常的大，連國王都非常尊重他的意見。
秦王國的國王收到了情報，得知(魏齊)躲藏在(趙勝)的家中。
他就寫了一封信給(趙勝)。
我聽說你是一個能力與品德都很高的傑出的男人，我想要跟你交個朋友，所以我希望邀請你到我的王國參訪幾天。我會用最高規格接待你。
(趙勝)答應了這個邀約。
他到了秦王國的首都後，秦王國的國王連續舉開了好幾天的宴會，他們在宴會爭聊得很愉快。
幾天後，國王在一場宴會中對他說。
我們國家的首相目前是(范睢)，他是我非常尊敬的一個人。
我聽說他有一個名字叫做(魏齊)的仇人現在住在你家。
我要請你派人把他帶到秦王國，我們想要見他。
(趙勝)聽了這些話後，他知道自已正處在一個很危險的情況中。
他如果拒絕國王的請求，他可能就無法活著回到趙王國。
他如果答應國王的請求，他的好朋友(魏齊)就會死在秦王國。
他沉默的一會兒。他做出了決定，他回答。
一個人在他有了權勢後，在他有了很多錢之後、為何這個人仍然與自已以前那些地位低下與貧困的朋友們往來呢?
這個人會這樣做的原因是因為他沒有忘記自己與自己的朋友們的深厚情誼。
(魏齊)是我的好朋友，即使他在我家，我也決不會把他交出來，何況現在他根本不在我家呢。
他果斷地拒絕的秦王國的國王的要求。
這句成語的意思是指一個男人傑出又令人敬佩。
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。
你如果是他，你會做何種選擇呢?你如何看待背叛這種行為呢?
我希望這故事能讓你產生一些新的收穫。
