A long time ago, there were four kings in Nanbuzhou, one of whom was called "Gan Jie". The king is overbearing and perverse, and does not need proper laws to govern the country, which makes the people of the whole country boil with resentment.
Ministers and people all over the country hate this greedy behavior. They got together to discuss: "One person in each family, each with a weapon, went to find this bad king and told him that his perverse behavior had made the people of the whole country intolerable." If he is willing to leave the country voluntarily, that's it; Otherwise, we will kill him! "
When the news reached the greedy king Jie, he trembled with fear and his hair stood on end.
He hurried away in a carriage. A person in the wild, hungry and naked, had to pick wild vegetables, weave all kinds of things and sell them in the street for a living.
After the greedy king escaped, the minister and the people elected his brother to succeed to the throne.
My younger brother loves money and is king. He manages the country in the right way, never wronged an innocent people, and the country gradually settles down.
The greedy king was very happy when he heard that his brother had ascended the throne. He thought, "I can write to my brother and tell him my present situation." If he pities me and gives me something, I won't have to go hungry and freeze again. " He thought about it and wrote a letter to his brother, asking him to give him a small village.
Jie greedy king's younger brother received his letter and felt that his brother was also very poor, so he agreed to his request and gave him a small village.
The greedy king got the village, and his food and clothing were guaranteed. He was very happy. Recalling all the experiences of being a king, losing his country and living in the suburbs, he regretted that he should not have behaved so badly. So he made up his mind to repent, be kind to the people and govern the village. In this way, with his efforts, the village is getting richer and richer.
After a while, the greedy king wrote to his brother again, asking him to give him another village. His brother agreed again. In this way, he asked for one village after another, and the number of villages he ruled increased from four or five to a dozen, to one hundred, and then to five hundred. Still not satisfied with the greedy king, Jie wrote to his younger brother asking him to keep half of the kingdom for himself. His brother also agreed. Although the greedy king ruled more and more areas, he still ruled the country carefully in the right way, so the country was well governed.
After a while, the greedy king became more and more dissatisfied with ruling only half the country. He wants to recover his original kingdom and send troops to attack his brother. He really won the war and took back the other half of the kingdom. At this time, the greedy king became more arrogant. He thought, "It's nothing to rule a country. Why don't I take the other three countries from the South Station? " Then he sent troops to invade other countries. Soon, all the countries in South Station were occupied by him. Is it really "within the four seas, is it the land of kings?" The greedy king was complacent, so he changed his name and surname, claiming to be "a great victory over the king", pulled himself together and managed the whole country in good order.
After learning this, Emperor Shi Tian wanted to test whether King Sheng Da was satisfied, so he became a little Brahmin, holding a gold cane in one hand and a gold bottle in the other, and his hair was hanging freely. He came to the palace of King Sheng Da and asked to meet him.
The gatekeeper quickly reported to the great king of victory: "There is a Brahman named Juyi outside the palace who wants to see the king."
King Sheng ordered, "Please send him in."
After Juyi came in, he saluted King Sheng Da and told King Sheng Da, "I'm from overseas.
There is a country on the other side of the sea, with vast and fertile land, rich people and rich jewels, which the king can take away. I just want to know if the king wants this country. "
Wang Sheng was very happy and thought, "I am worried that there is no land for me to occupy!
This is really great! "Busy said," I really want to occupy this country. "
Juyi said, "Then please get the boat ready and count all the horses. After seven days, I will lead the team to lead the way." Say that finish and left.
After Juyi left, the victorious king collected ships, prepared military forces and actively prepared for war. On the seventh day, everything was ready, but there was no pony. From morning till night, there is still no sign of anyone. The victorious king was so depressed that he patted his thigh and cried, "I'll never get that rich country again!" " That's a real pity.
At that time, I had to detain Koichi and not let him go. Who knows he'll never come back! "
Ministers and people were also very depressed. They wept with the victorious king.
When I defeated Wang, I had mixed feelings and couldn't help but read some poems:
Life has endless desires, one after another.
True happiness is that all desires are satisfied.
The king also announced to everyone: "I am really the most unfortunate person in the world!" I will give one thousand gold coins to anyone who can relieve my pain. "
At this moment, a child named Yuduo happened to pass by and heard the king's words. Yu Duo said, "I can relieve the pain of the king, but please give me seven days." Say that finish and left.
Yu Duo lives with his old mother. On the seventh day, he said goodbye to his mother and said, "I'm going to relieve the king's pain."
His mother was shocked and said, "Son! Please don't do this. As the saying goes,' a companion is like a tiger'. Working for the king is like taking chestnuts from the fire and eating them at the tip of a knife. Don't go! "
Yu Duo said, "Mom, don't worry! I have the ability to do this well. "
When he arrived at the palace, Yuduo said to the victorious king, "As the king said, people's desires are endless. Therefore, even if there is gold and silver everywhere, people will not be satisfied; Even if you have a golden mountain as high as Mount Sumi, people will not be satisfied. So, will people always suffer from unsatisfied desires? No, as the saying goes, as long as people pay attention to controlling their desires and are not led by unrealistic desires, they will be satisfied with life and will not suffer. The king has ruled the whole southern war state, which is enough. Why must we conquer any overseas country? "
Hearing this, Wang suddenly realized, "You speak very well! I was blinded by various desires and did many stupid things before. Today I understand that people should try to control their desires. " Say that finish, take one thousand gold coins and give them to Yu Duo.
Yu Duo said, "Thank you, Your Majesty! I am young and strong, and I can stand on my own feet. I don't need these gold coins. But my family has an old mother who is old and in poor health. If the king allows, please give her these gold coins and let her spend her old age safely. "
So King Sheng Da sent someone to give the gold coin to Yuduo's mother.
From then on, the victorious king stopped thinking and devoted himself to governing the country so that all the people could live a happy life.
