The stories in this book are very interesting and reminded me of some people in my life. For example, in the Song Dynasty, he was favored by Wei Linggong because of his beauty, but he got into trouble with others and eventually went into exile. This made me understand that I cannot forget my duty just because of temporary favors, and I must cherish the happiness in front of me. There is also Mi Zixia, who was praised by Duke Ling for his filial piety, but in the end he was offended because of his decline in sex and love. This also made me understand that people must constantly improve their inner qualities in order to truly gain the respect and love of others. Although this book is short, it contains profound truth and is worth reading.
