Truly wise people are often clumsy and never show their edge. Cao Cao killed Yang Xiu because he was jealous of himEmperor Yang of Sui also killed him because he was jealous of Wang Guan's poetry.
A truly wise person must learn to pretend to be stupid, Zheng Banqiao's famous sentence: "rare and confused" is said to be this artistic conception. He was afraid that the world would misunderstand, and explained: "It's hard to be smart, it's hard to be confused, it's especially difficult to turn from smart to confused. Note that, he stressed, "it's especially hard to go from being smart to being foolish." Judging by this standard, Yang Xiu is not very smart and wise. Can a truly wise person not be good at protecting himself?The so-called "wise self-preservation" realm has not been reached, what a pity for eternity!
The ancient Sun Pet of our country is a historical lesson of great wisdom and foolishness. After Sun Bin was framed by Pang Juan, although Sun Bin was crippled, Pang Juan still wanted to put him to death. He had no choice but to pretend to be stupid and hide from the world. Pang Juan tried to see if he was really crazy several times, he actually lived with pigs and animals, grabbed dung and ate, cried and laughed impermanently, shameless, Pang Juan thought he was really crazy, and only then did he relax his vigilance, Sun Bin waited for an opportunity to escape, and finally defeated Pang Juan with a trick and avenged the shame.
The forty-fourth chapter of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" writes a wonderful scene of Kong Zhizhi provoking Zhou Yu, which is a successful use of great wisdom and foolishness. In order to arouse Zhou Yu's fighting spirit against Cao, Kong Ming skillfully transferred Cao Zhi's "Tongquetai Fu" to "take the second bridge in the southeast, and enjoy the day and night...... togetherThe "Second Bridge" in the "Second Bridge" explained to Zhou Yu as "Er Qiao" (one of which is Zhou Yu's wife), Zhou Yu was furious after hearing it: "I am inseparable from the old thief" Kong Ming is done, in fact, Er Qiao is the wife of Zhou Yu and Sun Ce, how can Kong Ming not know?Knowing and pretending to be confused, Kong Ming used "great wisdom and foolishness" to provoke Zhou Yu, and finally succeeded unexpectedly.

It is worth mentioning that Bao is ashamed and shameful, and pretending to be stupid and crazy must be realistic. Yue Wang Goujian can taste the feces of the king of Chu's husband, so that the husband can really believe in his loyalty, if he is accidentally seen through by the opponent, the self-defeating end will be undoubted.
There are many such stories not only in China, but also in foreign countries. Tarquin, the last king of Rome, brutally murdered Brutus' father and brother, and Brutus was spared by pretending to be a fool.
Brutus pretended to be a fool so realistically that the king thought he could be used as a joke and was left to walk freely in the palace, and the king often used him as a plaything for pleasure.
There was a beautiful woman in Rome, Lutheretia, who was married and was robbed of the palace by the king, but she refused to obey and committed suicide for chastity and freedom.
At this time, Brutus went to the husband and father of this beautiful woman and asked them to swear to avenge her. With much help, he tore off the pretense of a fool, mobilized the people with impassioned speeches, won the army, and finally overthrew and exiled the king, ending the Roman patent era and establishing the Roman Republic. Brutus became a political officer.
What's even more wonderful is Hamlet in Shakespeare's "The Prince's Revenge", which is the most typical masterpiece.
In World War II, a team led by Rochford Jr. of the United States deciphered the Japanese code and learned the exact information about the Japanese combat deployment at sea. But at this time, a resourceful reporter learned of the situation and published it as a scoop. This is likely to prompt the Japanese to change the password and adjust the deployment, which can be said to have caused a big disaster, but Roosevelt ** came up with a stupid plan, and did not send anyone to investigate the leak, nor did he ask the teacher to ask for the crime. This exclusive news was seen by the head of the Japanese army, but the United States did not investigate the leak, and mistakenly believed that the United States used a fraud scheme in the newspaper, falsely claiming that the US military had deciphered the Japanese code. This is "false versus true". At this time, Roosevelt deceived the Japanese, who continued to use the original code, which was constantly deciphered by the American military, and Roosevelt knew everything about the actions of the Japanese army. So in the Battle of Midway, a big victory.
From the big country to the small family, sometimes you have to pretend to be confused. The so-called not blind or deaf, can't be a family, if the father-in-law and mother-in-law are more serious and always reasonable, then there must be dark clouds in this family, and the war of words is constant. If there are principles in big things and confusion in small things, and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are more tolerant, and they will not be reprimanded if they are not careful, the family will be harmonious, harmonious, and happy. The family is not a place for reason, but a place for love. If you are more tolerant and more confused for your in-laws, your daughter-in-law and son may be more filial. Let it go and take a step back, that is, endure the calm for a while, take a step back and open the sky. Many family conflicts lie in the fact that one of the two parties has a little patience, so they "have peace of mind at the moment" and live happily without seeking happiness, and are blessed without praying for blessings.
In modern business warfare, the clever side often uses this kind of clumsy trick to capture the old man. Three Japanese once negotiated with an aircraft manufacturing company in the United States on behalf of Japan Airlines. The Japanese side is the buyer, and the American side is the seller. The U.S. company selected the most astute and capable senior staff to form a negotiating team, launched a powerful product promotion offensive to the Japanese representatives, and also printed a lot of promotional materials, **, etc., and they spent several hours on three slide projectors, and carried out various propaganda .......
When the US representative was distraught and lost confidence, the Japanese representative slowly put forward the conditions, and the US representative was already confused at this time, and did not resist at all, and the Japanese company won a complete victory.
This is a strategy to confuse the other party by being confused and pretending to be confused. But some young people in modern times, obviously not much experience, the city government is not deep, often out of vanity and hypocrisy, in order to show that they are broad, in fact, it is the manifestation of lust and inwardness, in the end only the form is decent, and the content suffers. As the saying goes, who can blame a swollen face when he is guilty?
Since the existence of human beings, people have worked intellectual strategies, especially in the contemporary era of "test-oriented education", schools and parents attach great importance to scores, and students go all out to strive for good results, thus ignoring the comprehensive cultivation of "quality". In fact, foolishness and wisdom are relative concepts, and the so-called foolishness is not the same as stupidity.
The ancients said: If great wisdom is foolish, it is to warn people to be loyal and honest as the foundation of life, and wisdom should not be excessive or exhausted. People who are too smart are often the object of suspicion, and you will have more trouble.
