What's the use of a beautiful Xu Gong without a monarch?

The usage of Xu Gong is not as beautiful as that of a gentleman. It is used between the attributive and the head language to cancel the independence of the sentence.

Source: Zou Ji, the Warring States Policy, satirizes Xu Gong, the king of Qi in the pre-Qin period: "On the day of Dan, guests came from outside, talked with them and asked them,' Xu Gong, which is more beautiful?' The guest said,' Xu Gong is not as beautiful as a gentleman.' "

The next day, a guest visited from outside. Zou Ji sat with him and asked the guest, "Who is more beautiful than Xu Gong?" The guest said, "Xu Gong is not as beautiful as you."
