Chinese family names. |

disciple. |
|

He was a famous minister in the Eastern Han
Dynasty of China and his story is recorded in history books.
One day the founding king of the Eastern
Han Dynasty said to him
I want to give you an assignment. I want
you to lead an army to Hebei to attack the warlords there.
After receiving this order, he began to
gather military equipment and soldiers.
While he was doing this, he discovered that
there was a person who was using his special status to commit corruption in the
purchase of military equipment.
This man was a servant of the king and was
very close to the king.
He was a very honest and upright minister,
so he arrested this man and executed him according to the law.
When the king heard about this, he was very
angry. The king said angrily to one of the ministers.
Ji Zun was so brave. He actually killed the
servant who had been with me for a long time and was very close to me.
I think he disrespected me so much that I'm
going to kill him.
After hearing the king's words, the
minister calmly said to the king.
Are you really going to kill him?
Ji Zun is a general who carries out his
duties according to the laws of the land.
Your servant committed these illegal acts
without your knowledge, and your servant's actions have harmed the interests of
the entire kingdom.
Ji Zun executed your servant according to
the law. He only did what he had to do. He made no mistake.
In my opinion, not only should you not
blame him, but you should praise him.
Only in this way will everyone know that
you are a wise and just king.
After listening to the minister, the king
remained silent for tens of minutes and then said to the minister
I am very grateful to you for giving me
your loyal opinions. Your opinions are correct.
I will publicly praise Ji Zun. I hope other
ministers can learn from Ji Zun's behaviour and courage.
Dear friend, what inspiration or thoughts
do you have after listening to this story?
If you were Ji Zun, would you dare to kill
this illegal servant according to the law? If you were a king, could you think
rationally and make the right decision?
I hope this story can give you some new
insights.

他是中國的東漢王朝一個著名的大臣，歷史書上記載了一個他的故事。
東漢王朝的開國國王有一天對他說。
我要給你一個任務，我要讓你帶領一支軍隊去河北這個地方攻打那邊的軍閥。
他收到這個命令後，他就開始著手進行軍事裝備與士兵的調配。
在他執行這些工作時，他發現有一個人利用自己的特殊身分在軍事裝備的購買過程中貪汙。
這個人是國王的僕人，這個人與國王非常的親近。
他是一個很廉潔又很正直的大臣，所以他把這個人抓起來並且依照法律處死這個人。
國王聽到這件事情後，國王非常的憤怒，國王生氣的對一個大臣說。
祭遵真的太大膽了，他竟然殺了那個跟隨我很久而且與我很親近的僕人。
我認為他非常不尊重我、因此我要殺了他。
這一個大臣聽到國王說的這些話後就很冷靜地對國王說。
你真的要殺了他嗎?
祭遵是一個將軍，他依照國家的法律來執行他的工作。
你的僕人瞞著你做出這些違法的行為，你的僕人的行為已經傷害了整個王國的利益。
祭遵按照法律處決你的僕人，他只是執行他應該做的事情，他並沒有犯錯。
依照我的看法，你不但不應該責備他，你反而應該要讚美他。
這樣才會讓所有的人都藉由這件事情知道你是一個明智又公義的國王。
國王聽完這個大臣說的這些話後，國王沉默了好幾十分鐘後對這個大臣說。
我很謝謝你，你提供給我忠誠的意見，你的看法是正確的。
我會公開的表揚祭遵。我希望其他的大臣都可以學習祭遵的行為與正直的勇氣。
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。
如果你是祭遵，你敢依照法律殺了這個犯法的僕人嗎?你如果是國王，你可以理性地去思考後做出正確的決定嗎?
我期待這故事能讓你產生一些新的收穫。
