《淮南子·泰族训》
上面没有烦琐杂乱的管理，下面没有怨声载道的情绪，那么社会各种灾害容易被消除，而中正平和的局面就会兴起。这就是三代昌盛的原因。
上无烦乱之治，下无怨望之心，则百残除而中和作矣，此三代之所昌。
When there is no cumbersome or excessive bureaucracy at the top and no resentment or complaints from the people below, it is easy to eliminate all sorts of social disasters and establish a just and harmonious environment. That is why the Three Dynasties were so prosperous.
