cháo ㄔㄠˊ (3.1): 朝見。 Meet in court.
《·》: | 孔子沐浴而朝,告於哀公曰:「陳恆弒其君,請討之。」 | Confucius bathed, went to court and informed the duke Ai, saying, "Chen Heng has slain his sovereign. I beg that you will undertake to punish him." | 《·》: | 天子無事與諸侯相見曰朝,考禮正刑一德,以尊于天子。 | When the son of Heaven received the feudal princes, and there was no special affair on hand, it was (simply) called an audience. They examined their ceremonies, rectified their punishments, and made uniform what they considered virtuous; thus giving honour to the son of Heaven. |
