Chu Po-yu sent a messenger with friendly inquiries to Confucius.Go here to read the introductory post to this serialized version of the Analects of Confucius.
Confucius sat with him, and questioned him. "What," said he! "is your master engaged in?" The messenger replied, "My master is anxious to make his faults few, but he has not yet succeeded." He then went out, and the Master said, "A messenger indeed! A messenger indeed!"
