It is said: In life, wealth and nobility cannot corrupt, and poverty cannot change one’s nature. Extraordinary talent in literature, yet Confucius struggled in the state of Chen; unparalleled military strategy, yet Taigong fished in the Wei River. Yan Yuan had a short life, certainly not a malevolent person; Dao Zhi was older, how could he be considered a good man? Emperor Yao was wise and holy, yet gave birth to an unworthy son; the blind old man was foolish, yet gave birth to a filial son. Zhang Liang was originally a commoner, while Xiao He was known as a county official. Yan Zi had no height of five feet, yet was appointed as Prime Minister of Qi; Kong Ming lived in a thatched cottage but served as a military advisor for Shu Han. Though Chu's hegemony was strong, it fell at the Wu River by self-immolation; although the Han king was weak, he managed to have a vast territory. Li Guang had the prowess to shoot tigers but died without a title; Feng Tang had the talent to ride dragons but never encountered fortune in life. Han Xin, when not recognized, had no three meals a day, but once he was promoted, he had a jade seal hanging from his waist. When his fortunes waned, he died at the hands of a shadowy figure.
