Tian Zi's Story Translation
Tian Zi is the highest official who assists the monarch in managing state affairs. Three years later, he retired and went home, giving his mother the 2200 gold he got when he was in office. His mother asked him, "How did you get all this gold?" He replied, "This is my reward for being an official." Mother said, "After three years as prime minister, don't you eat?" ? Being an official like this is not what I expected.

A dutiful son should strive to serve his parents honestly. Don't take things you shouldn't take into the house. Being a minister of a country is disloyal, and being a son is unfilial. You take this away. "Tian Zi ran out in shame, returned the gold to the court, and then asked the king to put himself in prison. The king thought his mother was very virtuous and was happy because Tian Zi's mother had a deep understanding of justice, so he pardoned Tian Zi's crime, appointed him as prime minister again and rewarded his mother with gold.

The Book of Songs says, "Educate your children and grandchildren well and pass them on from generation to generation." It is said that a virtuous mother teaches her children virtue.

This article was written in 170 BC and belongs to the literature of Qin and Han dynasties. The author is Han Ying (about 200 BC-BC 130), a Yan native of the Western Han Dynasty. Besides, his famous works include Han Shi Zhuan? Han Ying's thoughts spread Confucianism widely.

Han Ying was a doctor during the reign of Emperor Wen of the Western Han Dynasty. When Emperor Jing became an official, he was named Liu Shun, a teacher, and the king of Changshan. Later generations also called him Han, a teacher. Emperor Wu and Dong Zhongshu argued with reason and were indomitable. The founder of "Korean poetics" in the Western Han Dynasty, who manages the Book of Songs and the Book of Changes, has a very different poetic language from that of Qi and Lu. It is speculated that the meaning of the Book of Songs is confused with the Spring and Autumn Annals or ancient events, and is not attached to Confucian classics. Unlike scholars in Zhou and Qin Dynasties, they all cite the Book of Songs to prove things, rather than citing things to clarify the Book of Songs. Both Yan and Zhao Yan wrote Han Ying's poems. Zhao Zi and Huainan Bensheng are his disciples. Zhao Zichuan, Cai Yi,,, Chang, etc., who formed Korean poetry, all had many apprentices.
