Excerpt from the original:
The Book says, "Be prepared for danger in times of peace, and be prepared if you think, and act if you dare." Gong said, "I dare not take my life. If you suppress pagans, you can't wait for glory and help the river. The husband's reward, the national code, is hidden in the government of the alliance and cannot be abolished. Children are bound by it! " Jiang Wei began to enjoy the happiness brought by stones and ceremonies.
Translation:
The book says: "There are dangers in stability. If you think about it, you will be prepared, and if you are prepared, there will be no harm. I would like to persuade the king. "
Jin Wengong said, "How dare you disobey orders? Besides, without you, I can't cure Rongmin and cross the Yellow River. Reward is the law of the country, which is hidden in the government of the alliance and cannot be abolished. You'd better accept it! " From then on, Jiang Wei began to have the joy of being a scholar, which is in line with the ceremony.
