Explanation: Mr. Buddha View: October 9th letter arrived, that is, reply。I wish my son's dream could come true, and we would be lucky to go home and write New Year couplets on your home。I wish him a visit in the New Year。But to move, the cost is not light, but also inconvenient too strong。The channel has been returned to no？Big text is very insightful, and very detailed, gratifying。Only the collection of materials, I do not know whether there is no preparation？A few years ago, Wen Youwei wrote a book by Sang Hongyang, claiming that his financial management was the achievement of leveling the Huns。I don't know if the materials are sufficient without reading them？Big text discussion, I fully agree, but the material should be paid more attention to collection。Hong Yang, Kong only acts, indeed great achievements。And Hongyang is especially good at planning, Emperor Wu does not use Hongyang, must not [drive] strong Hu in the north, and expand the territory in the southwest。My son said that his strict law was related to the implementation of policies at that time, especially the predecessors could not do。This article is indeed of great value, but it is difficult for people to say it today。The state system cannot be carried out by officials who are not in a hurry and not for their own interests。The method of control is not that the officials are pure and white, everywhere for the sake of the country and society, but for the sake of private interests, there will be a death of both the country and the people。The years of control of the journey, the people's suffering, this can be profound thinking。After all, the Han people have a public character in the chest, so do a good ear。This letter is carried by Yunchang, nephew of Monson。October 15th。
