One day, Zhuang Zi went to pay his respects to Ai Gong, King of the State of Lu.
Ai Gong said: "There are many Confucian scholars in our country, but very few study your Taoist doctrines1."
Zhuang Zi retorted: "The actual situation is not like what you said. In fact, there are very few Confucian scholars in the State of Lu."
Hearing this, Ai Gong replied by asking a question: "How can you say there are very few Confucian scholars in the State of Lu, when all the people in the state wear the clothes of Confucian scholars?"
Zhuang Zi said: "I hear that Confucian scholars who wear round-shaped hats understand the weather and climate; those who wear square-shaped shoes understand geography; those who wear colourful jade2 can make prompt decisions in dealing3 with matters. But people who really have the particular kind of knowledge do not necessarily wear the very kind of clothes, whereas those who wear the very kind of clothes do not necessarily have the particular kind of knowledge. If you think what I said is wrong, you can issue an order to the whole country: `Anyone who does not understand Confucian doctrines but wears Confucian clothes will be sentenced to death without exception.' Try and see what the result would be."
Ai Gong did issue such an order. Five days later, to his surprise, no one in the country dared to wear Confucian clothes any longer. Only one man wearing Confucian clothes stood outside the palace gate. Ai Gong immediately summoned him and inquired of him about state affairs. As expected, this man answered the questions readily and fluently, clearly and logically.
Zhuang Zi said: "The State of Lu is the native place of Confucianism, but there is only one Confucian scholar. How can you say that there are many Confucian scholars in the State of Lu?"
一天，庄子去拜见鲁哀公。
哀公说：“我们鲁国有很多儒生，但是学习你道家学说的人却很少。”
庄子反驳说： “情况不是您说的那样，事实上儒生在鲁国很少。”
哀公听了，反问说: “鲁国上上下下，都穿着儒生的衣服，怎么能说儒生少呢?”
庄子说： “我听说，头戴圆形帽的儒生，能够知晓天时;脚穿方形鞋的儒生，能够通晓地理;身佩彩色美玉的儒生，理事决策，能够当机立断。不过，真正有这种学问的人，不一定穿这种服装;而穿这种服装的人，不一定懂得这种学问。您如果认为我说得不对，可以通令全国：‘凡是不懂儒学而穿儒服的人，一律判处死罪。’试一试，看看结果会怎样?”
哀公真的颁布了这样一道命令。五天以后，全国居然没有敢穿儒服的人了。只有一个男子汉，身穿儒服，站在宫廷门外。哀公立即召见他，并用国家大事考问他。这人回答起来，果然应对自如，头头是道。
庄子说： “鲁国是儒家的故乡，但是只有一名儒生。这怎么能说鲁国儒生很多呢?”
10岁儿童英语故事：郑人买鞋In the State of Zheng, there was a man who wanted to go into town to buy a pair of new shoes.
Before leaving home, he measured his foot with a piece of straw1 for size. After he arrived at the town and entered a shoeshop, he put his hand into his pocket only to find that in his haste2 he had left the measurement3 at home. Thereupon, he turned round andstarted for home. But when he rushed back to the shoeshop with the measurement, the shop had closed. As a result, he had busied himself for nothing.
Later, someone asked him: "Were you buying shoes for yourself or for others?"
He answered: "For myself."
Someone else asked him: "Don't you have your feet on yourself? You need only to try on shoes with your feet to get the right size. Why did you go back home to fetch the measurement?"
The man of Zheng insisted: "I would rather trust the measurement than my own feet."
郑国，有个人想去城里买一双新鞋子。
他离家前先用一根稻草量了自己的脚，把它当作尺码。他到了城里，走进鞋店，伸手摸口袋，才发现因为急着赶路，把尺码忘在家里了。于是，他转身就往家里跑。可是等他拿着尺码赶回鞋店的时候，店己经关门了。结果，他白忙了一阵子，还是没有买到鞋子。
后来，有人问他：“你是给自己买鞋，还是给别人买?”
他回答说：“是给我自己。”
别人又问他：“脚不是长在你自己身上吗?只要用你的脚去试试鞋的大小，不就可以了吗?为什么还要回家去拿尺码呢?”
那个郑国人坚持说：“我宁愿相信尺码，也不相信自己的脚。”
10岁儿童英语故事：豌豆公主there was once a Prince who wished to marry aPrincess; but then she must be a real Princess. Hetravelled all over the world in hopes of finding such alady; but there was always something cesses he found in plenty; but whether theywere real Princesses it was impossible for him todecide， for now one thing， now another， seemedto him not quite right about the ladies. At last hereturned to his palace quite cast down， because hewished so much to have a real Princess for his wife.
One evening a fearful tempest arose， it thundered and lightened， and the rain poureddown from the sky in torrents： besides， it was as dark as pitch. All at once there was heard aviolent knocking at the door， and the old King， the Prince's father， went out himself toopen it.
It was a Princess who was standing outside the door. What with the rain and the wind，she was in a sad condition; the water trickled down from her hair，and her clothes clung to herbody. She said she was a real Princess.
“Ah! we shall soon see that!” thought the old Queen-mother; however， she said not aword of what she was going to do; but went quietly into the bedroom，took all the bed-clothes off the bed， and put three little peas on the bedstead. She then laid twenty mattressesone upon another over the three peas， and put twenty feather beds over the mattresses.
Upon this bed the Princess was to pass the night.
the next morning she was asked how she had slept. “Oh， very badly indeed!” she replied. “I have scarcely closed my eyes the whole night through. I do not know what was in my bed，but I had something hard under me， and am all over black and blue. It has hurt me so much!”
Now it was plain that the lady must be a real Princess， since she had been able to feel thethree little peas through the twenty mattresses and twenty feather beds. None but a realPrincess could have had such a delicate sense of feeling.
the Prince accordingly made her his wife; being now convinced that he had found a realPrincess. The three peas were however put into the cabinet of curiosities， where they are stillto be seen， provided they are not lost.
Wasn't this a lady of real delicacy?
豌豆公主
从前有一位王子，他想找一位公主结婚，但她必须是一位真正的公主。
他走遍了全世界，想要寻到这样的一位公主。可是无论他到什么地方，他总是碰到一些障碍。公主倒有的是，不过他没有办法断定她们究竟是不是真正的公主。她们总是有些地方不大对头。
结果，他只好回家来，心中很不快活，因为他是那么渴望着得到一位真正的公主。
有一天晚上，忽然起了一阵可怕的暴风雨。天空在掣电，在打雷，在下着大雨。这真有点使人害怕!
这时，有人在敲门，老国王就走过去开门。
站在城外的是一位公主。可是，天哪!经过了风吹雨打之后，她的样子是多么难看啊!水沿着她的头发和衣服向下面流，流进鞋尖，又从脚跟流出来。
她说她是一个真正的公主。
“是的，这点我们马上就可以考查出来。”老皇后心里想，可是她什么也没说。她走进卧房，把所有的被褥都搬开，在床榻上放了一粒豌豆。于是她取出二十床垫子，把它们压在豌豆上。随后，她又在这些垫子上放了二十床鸭绒被。
这位公主夜里就睡在这些东西上面。
早晨大家问她昨晚睡得怎样。
“啊，不舒服极了!”公主说，“我差不多整夜没合上眼!天晓得我床上有件什么东西?我睡到一块很硬的东西上面，弄得我全身发青发紫，这真怕人!”
现在大家就看出来了。她是一位真正的公主，因为压在这二十床垫子和二十床鸭绒被下面的一粒豌豆，她居然还能感觉得出来。除了真正的公主以外，任何人都不会有这么嫩的皮肤的。
因此那位王子就选她为妻子了，因为现在他知道他得到了一位真正的公主。这粒豌豆因此也就被送进了博物馆，如果没有人把它拿走的话，人们现在还可以在那儿看到它呢。
请注意，这是一个真的故事。
(1835)
这个作品写于1835年，收集在《讲给孩子们听的故事》里。它的情节虽然简短，但意义却很深刻。真正的王子只能与真正的公主结婚，即所谓的“门当户对”。但真正的公主的特点是什么呢?她的特点是皮肤娇嫩，嫩的连“压在这二十床垫子和二十床鸭绒被下面的一粒豌豆”都能感觉得出来。这粒豌豆证明出公主的真实，因此，它也成了具有重大历史意义的东西，被“送进了博物馆”。封建统治者就是这样荒.唐。这个小故事是一莫大的讽刺，与《皇帝的新装》也异曲同工之妙。
