Zhu, a Neo-Confucianist in Song Dynasty, said: Honest people are true and innocent. Honesty is a virtue. Famous saying: "Honesty is heaven, and heaven rewards diligence". Words and deeds must be consistent with the sky, tell the truth, do practical things and oppose hypocrisy. It means honesty.

The meaning of this letter is:

Shuo Wen Jie Zi advocates "people's words are true", while Cheng Yi advocates "truth is true". It can be seen that "faith" not only requires people to speak honestly and reliably, but also requires people to do things honestly and reliably. The basic connotation of "faith" is to keep promises, match words with deeds, be honest and trustworthy.

"Honesty" is mainly from the perspective of heaven, and "faithfulness" is mainly from the perspective of human nature. Therefore, Mencius said: "a loyal person is also a heavenly way; Honest people, the way of people is also. "

"Honesty" is innate, and it is the truth and law to follow the example of heaven and pursue honesty. Although there are philosophical differences between them, from a moral point of view, "honesty" and "faithfulness" are synonymous and equivalent concepts, so Xu Shen said in Shuo Wen Jie Zi: "Honesty and faithfulness are also." "Faith, sincerity." The basic meaning is honesty and trustworthiness, consistency in words and deeds, and what you look like. This is the basic requirement of being a man.

"Honesty" in a general sense means honesty and sincerity, which mainly refers to the inner moral quality of the subject's sincerity; "Credibility" means credit trust, which mainly refers to the externalization of the subject's inner sincerity. "Honesty" refers more to "inner sincerity", while "faith" focuses on "external trust in people". The combination of "honesty" and "faithfulness" has formed a rich vocabulary, which is both internal and external, and its basic meaning refers to honesty and trustworthiness.

For thousands of years, honesty has been regarded by the Chinese nation as its own code of conduct and moral cultivation, and formed a unique and rich concept of honesty on the basis of its basic meaning.
