Gao Feng, the capital of the Zhou Dynasty, is very close to the Xirong people. (So Zhou Wang and the princes agreed to build a bunker on the official road, and put a war drum on it, so that it could be heard from far and near. If people are allowed to come, beat the drums and tell them that the Zhuangke military forces will come to save the emperor.

Rong Kou was here once, the king drummed (delivered the message), and all the princes and soldiers came. The human voice and the neighing of horses buzzed, and Zaphod was very happy to see this scene. Wang You wanted to make Bao Si laugh, so he drummed many times. After several visits, Zhuang Ke's soldiers and horses did not let him talk. Later, Rong Kou really arrived, and the king drummed, but the princes and horses did not arrive. Wang You died at the foot of Mount Li and was laughed at by the whole world. This is to lose trust with lies when Rong Kou really came and he didn't.

Zhou Zhai Tan, a native of Daluo, is a near-honorable person. Make an appointment with the princes, so that Wang Lu may live forever; let tambourines and shouting be heard far and near. That is, when Kou arrived, the drum told him that the soldiers of the vassals had come to save the son of heaven. Rong Kou tasted it, the king beat the drums, and the soldiers of the princes all arrived. People neigh for horses, praise them and say they are happy. Wang You wants to praise his smile, but the factor drum, the vassal's soldiers are not bandits. As for the truth of Hou Rongkou, the king played the drums, but the vassal soldiers didn't arrive.

The enlightenment of the article

1, people should cultivate the good quality of being sincere to others, and don't tease others like a king, which will not lead to a good end. Losing "honesty" will not only harm others, but also harm yourself. This reminds me to remember that honesty is the foundation of being a man at all times.

2. Ordinary people should be honest; Officials should win the trust of the people; Law enforcers must abide by the law and strictly enforce the law, and must never neglect the law.
