The tortoise hides and the eagle gathers: the way of hiding clumsiness in the court game. In the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, heroes competed for the throne. Zhao Xiao, an official of the State of Zheng, was famous for his eloquence, but he always ran into obstacles due to his loud voice and eager words. At that time, the state of Zheng was sandwiched between Jin and Chu, and the counselors in the court had different opinions. Zhao Xiao would raise his voice every time he discussed the case, and his voice shook the beams: "The Chu army is weak, attack it quickly!" "The envoy of Jin is arrogant, and I rebuke him to his face!" However, his sharp words not only failed to convince the king, but also allowed his opponent to find out his trump card. Chu Guoxizuo once wrote in a secret letter: "Zhao Xiao's high voice means that his plans are shallow, and his hasty words mean that he is unprepared, so he can set up a targeted situation." That year, there was a conflict on the border between Zheng and Chu. Zhao Xiao advocated a surprise attack and had an endless dispute with Chen Mo, a doctor from the peace faction in the court. Chen Mo kept lowering his eyes and stroking his beard. When Zhao Xiao stopped breathing heavily, he whispered slowly: "The Chu army has not moved for three days, and there is a fear of an ambush. Our army does not have enough food and grass, so it is difficult to attack in a hurry." His voice was not high, but every word was calm. Zhao Xiao angrily scolded: "You old fox, you can't match the ambition of others!" After walking away, he secretly launched an army. As a result, he was ambushed by the Chu army and lost more than a thousand soldiers. Zheng Jun was furious and demoted Zhao Xiao to the border. Before leaving, Chen Mo gave him a jade turtle, saying only: "Only when a turtle has been quiet for a thousand years can one know the earth's veins; when a person is calm and his heart is calm, one can discover the mysteries." It was bitterly cold at the border, and Zhao Xiao saw the garrison soldiers practicing every day, and watched the old soldiers train eagles - before hunting, the eagle would fold its wings and crouch, with its gaze like a torch but silently, and only attack suddenly when the prey is close at hand. He rubbed the jade turtle and remembered Chen Mo's past actions: the Jin envoy once mocked Zheng's weak national power in public during the alliance meeting. The civil and military officials of the court either stared angrily or rushed to defend themselves. Only Chen Mo drank tea slowly and waited for the Jin envoy. After finishing speaking, he slowly spoke: "Although Zheng is a small country, it guards the thoroughfares of the world. Merchants from Shanxi need to use this road to communicate. If it hurts the diplomatic relations, what good will it do to Jin?" The tone was gentle but hidden with edge. The Jin envoy was speechless for a moment. It is even more unforgettable that during a court meeting, a minister was held accountable by the monarch for miscalculating taxes. The ministers accused him of negligence, but Chen Mo said: "Tax accounting is complicated, and occasional discrepancies are unavoidable. It is better to ask him to make up the calculations before discussing rewards and punishments." He not only gave his colleagues a step forward, but also did not go against the emperor's will, which showed the pattern. Half a year later, Zheng and Chu confronted each other again, and Chen Mo was ordered to go to the border to discuss matters. Zhao Xiao saw that he was still calmly reviewing the documents when facing the scout's urgent military report. After the other party finished speaking, he asked: "Who is the vanguard of the Chu army? Can the food and grass be enough for ten days?" After the scouts answered one by one, Chen Mo gave the order: "Send three hundred people to pretend to be a food team to lure the enemy, and the main force will set up an ambush in the valley." Zhao Xiao couldn't bear it. He interrupted: "This plan is very clever, why didn't you tell me earlier?" Chen Mo raised his eyes: "How does it differ from your rush to attack when you talked about the plan without asking for the military situation?" Zhao Xiao blushed, and then he understood the meaning of "others don't ask and don't answer" - hasty words without verification are just reckless empty talk. On the eve of the decisive battle, the Chu army sent an envoy to pretend to surrender. His words were full of contempt, mocking Zheng's weak military strength. The generals in the tent were furious and drew their swords to kill the envoy, but Zhao Xiao held down the hilt of his sword and said slowly to the envoy: "I have accepted the letter of surrender. Whether it will be fulfilled will be known tomorrow." After the envoy left, the generals were puzzled: "They are insulting my wife. "Why aren't you angry?" Zhao Xiao said, "Anger disturbs the mind, and confusing the mind leads to misjudgment. The messenger wants to inspire us to act impulsively." He followed Chen Mo's example this night, and his expression was calm throughout the night, and he was clear and organized when deploying his troops. In the battle the next day, the Chu army was indeed ambushed, and Zheng Guo won a complete victory. After Banshi returned to the court, Zheng Jun restored Zhao Xiao's official position. During a gathering of princes, an official from a neighboring country deliberately exposed the shortcomings of Zheng's past military defeats. Everyone looked at him sideways, but Zhao Xiao picked up his wine bottle and said slowly: "The defeat in the past taught Zheng that a strong army needs to be steady and steady. Today, I can defend the territory and the people, but I have to thank that day for the lesson." He neither defended nor resented it, but instead won the praise of the princes. When discussing matters in the court, he no longer speaks first. He always waits for others to finish speaking before adding his opinions. His voice is not high but his words are to the point. In private, even if he knows that his colleagues have made mistakes, he never points them out in front of everyone and only reminds them tactfully in private. A few years later, Zhao Xiao had become a pillar of the Zheng Dynasty. When someone asked him the secret of life, he pointed to the jade turtle and eagle feathers on his desk and smiled: "The turtle hides its armor inside to avoid natural enemies; the eagle gathers its wings in the forest to catch its prey. A loud voice cannot show any reason, and a fast speech cannot hide wisdom. If you show emotions and anger, you will be easy to manipulate, and if you reveal someone's shortcomings, you will lose the pattern. A true master never lets people see through his mind, never makes unnecessary arguments on the scene, is as stable as a mountain, and is as quiet as a deep pool, so he can always take the initiative in the game of world affairs. " These words were passed down to later generations and became a motto for life. The world finally understands that the so-called "not angry but self-promoting" is never a stern intimidation, but a calm and restrained aura; the so-called "master's layout" is never a flamboyant showoff, but a sober and defensive attitude. There is propriety hidden in the slow speech, wisdom in the silence, and pattern in the intangible expression of joy and anger. This is the most solid armor for walking in the world.
