In Spring and Autumn Period, there was a man named Kong Yu, who was a senior official of the State of Wei. He was clever and diligent in study. He had a good habit of asking questions. Whenever there was something he didn’t understand, he would ask others about it. Moreover, he often consulted someone who was less knowledgeable than him or someone inferior to him. Every time he did this, he didn’t feel ashamed about it at all.
After he died, the prince of State of Wei granted him a name “Wen”. Confucius later on also respected him very much and asked his students to learn from him.
