What is the meaning of Monkey and Tiger (Renyin)? Zuo Zongtang, who was born in the year of the Monkey, was a late Qing strategist, strategist, hero, and one of the representatives of the Westernization Movement. He was also known as the "Famous Minister of the Late Qing Dynasty and the Zhongxing Dynasty" together with Zeng Guofan and others.

In 1830, Zuo Zongtang entered Changsha Chengnan Academy to study and became a student of He Xiling. He Xiling liked him very much and said that he was "extraordinary and able to stand on his own feet, and he would definitely gain something from his learning".

He Xiling, born in the year of Monkey, is from Changsha.

Influenced by his brother He Changling, he advocated the study of managing the world and applying it to practical purposes.

He successively served as the censor of Henan Province, the admiral of Hubei academic affairs, and the censor of Shandong Province.

Later, he went to Changsha Chengnan Academy to teach for eight years. During this period, he became close friends with Zuo Zongtang, and he was also one of the noble people in Zuo Zongtang's life.

He Xiling lived a simple life. He liked to wear cloth clothes and eat vegetables. He named his residence "Cai Gen Xiang".

Zuo Zongtang, an important minister of the Qing Dynasty, was influenced by his teacher He Xiling. Although he worked hard, he lived a very simple life with a breeze.

It was his customary diet. Historical records record that Zuo Zongtang did not eat dinner. This is not only true, but also a manifestation of his simple life.

But today the delicacy related to General Tso is "General Tso's Chicken".

The allusion to General Tso's Chicken is that chef Peng Changgui created a delicacy with chicken legs as the main ingredient when Redford visited the US Seventh Fleet in 1952. After eating it, Redford was very impressed and asked the name of the dish.

Because Chef Peng is from Hunan, he hopes that the name of the dish will be loud and have something to do with Hunan celebrities. He also heard that Zuo Zongtang liked "braised vegetarian chicken" in his food, so he casually said: "General Zuo's Chicken"

".

In fact, this dish has nothing to do with Zongtang Zuo.
