Say what you see, and let what you think show. This is an honest performance. The most important thing about honesty is that you don't cheat, and here, you don't cheat yourself inside, and you don't cheat others outside. Honest people always appear in front of the world with their true side, no matter who or when, so honest people can always win universal trust. We usually associate "honesty" with "credibility", in which "honesty" is the premise, the cause and "credibility" is the result. There are many virtues about people, and "honesty" is the cornerstone of all virtues. "Sincere, stone is open", which is the great role of honesty. Honesty, manifested in the courage to admit mistakes and take responsibility, is particularly commendable, which requires a kind of courage.

dishonesty may deceive people for a while, but in the long run, the Tailken family will be exposed, and people's trust will be lost from then on, which is a bit of a loss. Life is short, and the years are ruthless. Let's show our persistence in respecting life with honesty.

Emperor Taizong ruled the world with sincerity

Confucianism in the pre-Qin Dynasty attached great importance to self-cultivation with sincerity as the basic content, which had a great influence on the history of China and was highly valued by the people from the emperor to the common people, especially the emperor himself advocated ruling the world with sincerity.

during the reign of emperor Taizong, a letter was sent to Taizong, asking for the removal of courtiers who were good at flattery. Taizong asked, "But who is a courtier who is good at flattery?" The person who wrote the letter replied with suggestions: "I live in a remote country, and I can't completely know who such a person is. You can test them and pretend to be angry when talking to ministers. Those who insist on the truth and don't give in to your anger are the ministers who are straight down; And those who see your anger, fear your majesty and obey your will are flattering ministers. " Emperor Taizong listened to his words: "A monarch is like a water source, and a minister is like a water flow. If the water source is turbid, it is impossible to make the water flow clear. How can the monarch ask his ministers to be honest when he cheats himself? I believe that I can govern the world with sincerity, so I don't want to use cunning hands like the emperors before? It's a pity that I can't use your method to treat my lieutenants, although it's very good. "

Dou Dexuan tells the truth

It has become a common practice in the Tang Dynasty that the emperor treats his lieutenants with sincerity, and the lieutenants treat the emperor with sincerity. On one occasion, Tang Gaozong came to Puyang, followed by Dou Dexuan and other ministers on horseback. Gao Zong asked, "Puyang is also called Diqiu. What's the matter?" Dou Dexuan honestly said that he could not answer. Another minister, Xu Jingzong, rode up from behind and replied, "The ancient emperor Zhuan Xu lived here before, so it was called Diqiu." Gao zong praised the answer well. After retiring, Xu Jingzong said to others: "The minister can't be ignorant. Dou Dexuan can't answer. I am really ashamed of him." Hearing this, Dou Dexuan said, "Everyone has something he can and can't do. I don't have to answer what I don't know. That's what I can do." There are many reasons for the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty. I wonder if honesty/mutual trust among ministers is one of the reasons.

realistic Cui Shu

Material contacts between friends can be carried out on the basis that they have no bad intentions. However, this kind of material exchange also needs to master a certain degree. In the Song Dynasty, Wang Shu recorded a story in Tang Yu Lin: A man named Cui Shu went to Bianliang to take an examination of Jinshi, lived with a businessman in the south for half a year, and they became good friends. Later, the businessman was seriously ill. He said to Cui Shu, "My illness seems to be incurable. According to the custom of our hometown, people will be buried when they die. I hope you can help me." Cui Shu agreed to his request. The merchant added, "I have a precious orb, which is of great value? I am willing to give it to you. " Cui Shu accepted the orb with curiosity. After Cui Shu thought about it, he felt wrong. How could he accept such an expensive gift from a friend? After the merchant died, Cui Shu put the orb in the coffin and buried it in the grave when he was buried in the ground. A year later, the wife of a southern businessman came all the way from the south to look for her dead husband and trace the whereabouts of the orb. The government sent someone to arrest Cui Shu. Cui Shu said, "If the tomb was not stolen, the orb must still be in the coffin." Pei Shuai Wang Yanxin thinks Cui Shu's valuable quality is really extraordinary. Do you want to keep him as a curtain? , he refused. In the second year, Cui Shu was admitted to the Jinshi examination, and later he has been the examiner, enjoying a reputation of modesty. Although some gifts between friends are sincere and have no intention of "fishing", if they exceed a certain limit, the friendship between the giver and the receiver will change color and taste. If Cui Shu took the orb and the government traced it down, his friendship with the businessman would be another matter, and the history books would not leave this sum. If the businessman's wife is unreasonable and accuses him of "murder for money", I'm afraid he will have a hard time arguing.

Be honest and realistic

There is a fable in ancient China: A queen who looks very beautiful and has a strong vanity, one day, on a whim, sent someone to cast a sword with gold, and then summoned officials from the Manchu Dynasty to announce, "I only know that I am beautiful, but I don't know how beautiful I am. You are all knowledgeable and eloquent people. Who can describe my beauty? This will make Jin Jian. The queen gave Jin Jian a high reputation, which made the civil and military officials in the Manchu dynasty salivate. As a result, all those officials searched their brains and concentrated on praising the start of the competition. Some said: "The beauty of the queen is to be ashamed of flowers when the moon is closed." Some retorted: "It is too vain to say this. The beauty of the queen should be natural and charming." "The beauty of the queen is the best in the world ..." Before this person finished, someone immediately turned to the aisle: "The beauty of the queen is not only the best in the world, but also in the sky. The seven fairies dare not look up when they see the queen, and the jade emperor has to be tempted when he sees the queen." Everyone is noisy, and the more boastful they are, the more mysterious they are, while the queen is there quietly and seems to be not satisfied. At this time, a loyal and kind old minister stood up and said, "The old man has seen countless women in his life, and the queen is the most beautiful." When the queen heard this, she quickly said, "This is what I like best. I will give it to Jin Jian."

why can't the queen be moved by the praise of all the ministers, but a simple compliment from the old minister makes her happy? Because the old minister's praise was neither excessive nor demeaning, he described the beauty of the queen realistically and appropriately.

Please ask the emperor to give another test

Zhang Zhibai, the prime minister of the Song Dynasty, recommended the young Yan Shu to the imperial court. Yan Shu was summoned by the imperial court, which coincided with Emperor Zhenzong's imperial examination, so he ordered Yan Shu to take the exam. After seeing the test, Yan Shu said, "I wrote this poem ten days ago. Please ask the emperor to write another test." His honesty won the true Sect's love. After that, Yan Shu took the post of librarian. One day, the official in charge said to the emperor, "Have you heard about the minister in the pavilion recently? There is no one who doesn't enjoy himself. Only Yan Shu and his brothers are immersed in hard work, so they are cautious and can serve as officials of the East Palace. " The emperor adopted the opinion of the principal officer and explained the reason for appointing him face to face. Hearing this, Yan Shu said, "It's not that I don't like to play, it's just that I can't afford to play because I'm poor. If I have money, I want to play. " The emperor appreciated his honesty. In Song Renzong, Yan Shu became prime minister.

The poor are not greedy for windfalls

A deposit of 3, yuan and a check of 18 million yuan-in just one month, two windfalls flew in front of Li Hongliang, a poor student from Shanghai Jiaotong University. In the face of huge sum of money, Xiao Li is unmoved, which shows the noble moral outlook of contemporary college students.

During the summer vacation in 1997, Li Hongliang opened a credit card with a deposit of 3, yuan in Funing Sub-branch of ICBC, in case of starting school. After returning to school, he found that there was an extra 3 yuan on his credit card. At that time, he did not withdraw his deposit, but immediately sent an inquiry letter to Funing Branch Chief, thus avoiding the loss of the long fund. On September 24, when Xiao Li and his classmates walked past the entrance of Pacific Department Store, they found a check for 18 million yuan on the ground. The seal was intact and the signing date was the same day. Without saying anything, they handed it over to the comrades guarding the school and entrusted him to help find the owner.

Say "No" in the face of the honor

According to the deployment of the work of the higher authorities at the end of 1997, the 6th Company of a certain armed police unit selected 13 "good soldier" and prepared to report them for commendation. After democratic evaluation, monitor Wang Yongli won the most votes, ranking first. The party branch of the company is going to report to the battalion party Committee. At this juncture, Wang Yongli was deeply ashamed of the trust of the officers and men of the whole company. Originally, when returning home to visit relatives at the beginning of the year, Wang Yongli sent a telegram "Mother is critically ill, please extend her leave for 5 days" to the company because she was eager to deal with personal marriage problems, but the holiday was full, and then stamped the official seal of the hospital and the local armed police department and sent it back to the company.

Not many people knew about this, and it has been a long time, but Wang Yongli was uneasy in the face of honor and took the initiative to report his behavior of deceiving the organization. Battalion connection accepted his request.

seeking truth from facts Lincoln

Abraham Lincoln is a famous president in American history. He came from a humble background, but he was kind, fair, honest and kind.

When Lincoln was 21 years old, he worked as a clerk in a shop owned by a friend. One day, an old woman came to buy textiles and paid 12 cents more. Lincoln didn't realize it at that time. After he checked out and found that he had more money, he walked six miles that night and returned the overcharged money to the old woman. Another time, when a female customer came to buy tea, Lincoln weighed four ounces less, so he ran a long way to make up for the tea he had given. The residents nearby all respect and love this thin and tall young man. Call him "honest Lincoln" affectionately.

refuse to take away the beauty of others

Mendelssohn is a German composer. In 1827, when he was 2 years old, he played abroad for the first time, which caused a sensation in Britain. Queen Victoria of England held a grand reception for Mendelssohn at Buckingham Palace. The queen especially appreciated his song "Ital Kindness" and told him that this song alone can prove that you are a heaven. After hearing this, Mendelssohn blushed like a purple grape, and awkwardly told the queen that this piece of music was not written by him but by his sister. Originally, Mendelssohn could have concealed this matter, but he didn't want to take away the beauty in front of honor. He thinks honesty is a quality that a person should have.

The end of fishing for fame

In Dong 'e area of Qi State in the Spring and Autumn Period, there was an official who didn't do practical things and liked to lie about his achievements in order to please the imperial court and get rewards. Since he took office, he has praised his achievements more and more. Even Qi Weiwang sent people to investigate on the spot and found that the fields there were barren and the people were hungry. Xue, who was next to him, was attacked by Zhao and Wei allied forces, and he did not send troops to rescue him. Therefore, Qi Weiwang summoned him and reprimanded him for "thick coins are about my reputation". He was ordered to be put to death and severely punished those who accepted bribes and made a name for himself.

The person in charge tied himself in a cocoon

Cao Cao, Emperor Wu of Wei, led his troops out to war. Once there was not enough rations, the competent official suggested to Cao Cao, "Pay the troops with a small bucket." When the soldiers discovered this, many people thought that Cao Cao had cheated them and were very angry. Cao Cao then called the officer in charge of grain, beheaded him in public, and publicly announced.
