February 5th: Yucun's Smile

A weak heart is mostly kind. They do not want to see others harmed for no reason, nor do they want to harm others for no reason. When they still have a little ability to help others, they will not hide that ability; they will exert themselves fully; Of course, they also act smart, even show off their little cleverness, even think they are the smartest person in the world; When others treat him like a monkey to play with, he still thinks he is one step above them.

The gatekeeper I am talking about is exactly this kind of person.

Yucun's case review originally had nothing to do with him; that is the affair of the meat-eaters, why bother? Being an official, why do you need to be meddlesome? Yucun's verdict offended people, he lost his office, lost his life, whether dead or alive, that is Yucun's matter, it has nothing to do with you. You just need to be a good assistant and do your duty.

But this gatekeeper, however, would not. When he saw Yucun fly into a rage: 'How could there be such a thing! To beat someone to death and just walk away, nothing gained!' The constable immediately brought the suspect's family for interrogation, the gatekeeper gave Yucun a look, stopping him from doing that.

Yucun ought to have handled affairs impartially, but he could not, because he was never the sort to handle affairs impartially. When faced with 'handling affairs impartially' versus 'acting out of self-interest and perverting the law,' Yucun naturally chose the latter. For acting out of self-interest and perverting the law not only brings gain, but also preserves his official position.

Such a profitable thing, who could avoid it?

When Yucun asked the gatekeeper: 'When I was reviewing the case and apprehending people, why did you give me those looks? What does it mean?'

The gatekeeper immediately explained to Yucun the reason for his looks: 'Buddy, now that you are an official and a lord, have you forgotten our poor brothers from back then?'

This gatekeeper is truly ungrateful, like Zhu Bajie looking in a mirror and not recognizing himself: a petty guard, how could he reminisce and call himself brother with an official?

Upon hearing that the gatekeeper was his poor brother from back then, Yucun was naturally displeased: 'You little gatekeeper, how can you call yourself my brother? Are you not intentionally putting a patch on my new clothes? Making me look bad?'

But Yucun, after all, is a politician; he would not let his thoughts show. Yucun smiled and said: 'Oh, it's an old friend, buddy, friends in poverty should not be forgotten.'

Yucun's saying 'Friends in poverty should not be forgotten' is deceitful nonsense; Yucun's smile is laced with poison......
