(of people living in a foreign country) so happy that they forget their home and responsibilities.

During the Three Kingdoms period, Liu Bei occupied Shu and established Shu. After his death, his son Liu Chan succeeded to the throne, namely Liu Adou. Liu Chan is incompetent. After the death of the brilliant minister, Shu was destroyed by Wei in 263 AD. After Liu Chan surrendered, Wang Wei's Mao gave him the title of "An Le Gong" with no real power and moved him to Xuchang, Weijingdu.

Wang Wei himself has no real power, and Si Mazhao has the final say. At a banquet, Si Mazhao deliberately arranged to perform Sichuan songs and dances in front of Liu Chan. Liu Chan's entourage was very sad to think of the dilapidated scene of the old country, but Liu Chan said to Si Mazhao, "You are happy here, don't think about Shu." He doesn't miss Shu at all.

In Conan's dream, there was a man named Chun Yuba who liked to drink. There is a big pagoda tree in his yard, with deep roots and luxuriant leaves. On midsummer night, there are few stars in the moon, the evening breeze is blowing gently and the trees are swaying. It is a good place to enjoy the cool.

On Chunyuba's birthday, friends and relatives came to celebrate his birthday. He was happy for a while and then drank a few glasses of wine. In the evening, all relatives and friends went back, and Chunyuba rested under the big pagoda tree with a slight drunkenness and fell asleep unconsciously.

In the dream, Chunyuba was invited by two envoys and entered a tree hole. The cave is sunny, sunny, and there is a different world, called Dahuai Country. Just in time for Beijing to select officials, he also signed up. After three exams, the article was written very smoothly. When the exam results were announced, he ranked first. Then the emperor was interviewed. Seeing that Chun Yuba was handsome and talented, the emperor loved her very much, so he personally named her the top scholar and married the princess to him. The champion lang became a husband, and the capital was once beautiful.

After marriage, the relationship between husband and wife is very happy. Soon, Chunyu Ba was sent by the emperor to Conan County as the satrap. Chun Yu is diligent and loves the people, and often goes to the territory to investigate and study and check the work of his subordinates. The administrative management in various places is very clean and effective, which is highly praised by local people. Thirty years later, Chunyuba's achievements have become famous all over the country. He has five men, two women and seven children, and he is very proud of his life. The emperor tried several times to transfer Chun Yuba back to Beijing for a promotion. When the local people heard about it, they poured into the streets, blocked the satrap's carriage and forced him to succeed in Conan. Chun Yuba was moved by the people's love and had to stay to explain the situation to the emperor. The emperor appreciated his achievements and gave him many treasures as a reward.

One year, Luo sent troops to invade Dahuai, and the generals of Dahuai were ordered to meet the enemy, but they were defeated by enemy soldiers several times. After the news of defeat reached the capital, the emperor was shocked and hurriedly called civil and military officials to discuss countermeasures. Ministers heard that the front-line troops had been repeatedly defeated, and the enemy troops were approaching the capital, which was extremely fierce. One by one, they were scared to death. You look at me, I look at you, and they are helpless.

When the emperor saw the minister's appearance, he was very angry and said, "You usually pamper yourself and enjoy all the splendor. Once something happens to the country, it will become a gourd without a mouth, and you will be timid. What's the use of asking you? "

At this time, the prime minister remembered Conan's outstanding political achievements and recommended him to the emperor. The emperor immediately ordered Chun Yu Ba to command the elite troops of the whole country to fight against the enemy.

After receiving the emperor's orders, Chunyu Kun immediately set out with his troops. However, he knows nothing about the art of war. He was defeated as soon as he fought the enemy, and his military strength suffered heavy losses. He almost became a prisoner himself. The emperor was very disappointed when he learned the news. He ordered Chunyu Ba to be dismissed from all his posts, demoted to a civilian and sent back to his hometown. Chun Yu Ba thought that her reputation had been ruined once. She was ashamed and resentful, and woke up from her dream with a loud cry. He searched for the country of Sophora japonica according to his dream. There was an ant hole under the tree of Sophora japonica, where a group of ants lived.

Endure hardships to achieve some ambition.

In 496 BC, a war broke out between wuyue and China in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River because of trivial grievances! Gou Jian, the young king of Yue, took Fan Li as his strategist, which made Wu Jun suffer a crushing defeat, and Lao Wu died of injury! Young Fu Cha ascended the throne. He vowed to wipe out Yue State. Three years later, Fu Cha led an army to attack Yue. After the two sides fought, the more Wu Sheng was defeated, the more Wu's army attacked. Wen Zi bribed the Minister of Wu and Fu Cha to do their best to deal with this matter, and finally made Fu Cha move with kindness and never destroy Yue again. The state of Yue was preserved. Gou Jian led the queen and Fan Li into the state of Wu as slaves. After three years as a slave, Fu Cha fell ill. Fan Li seized the opportunity to let Gou Jian find the source of the disease and let Fu Cha taste the dung, which completely influenced Fu Cha and released Gou Jian. Back in Gou Jian, I slept on straw and hung a rope on the beam. One end of the rope is tied with pig bile. When I wake up every day, the first thing is to taste gall! For twenty years, he couldn't get rid of it every day. In 473 BC, Gou Jian secretly took away 30,000 soldiers hiding among the people and besieged Gusu City in one fell swoop. At this time, there were 50,000 soldiers and horses in Focha, but they were afraid to go out of the city for World War I because of the difficulty of food and grass. Gou Jian created a miracle in the history of human kings! He made great efforts to govern the country and created the human myth of beating the big with small, defeating the strong with weak, and hitting the stone with eggs! The allusions of sleeping on a laurel are called the classics in China's thousands of years of civilization, and Gou Jian's superhuman will may have more humanistic significance!

This land is full of wailing geese-this land is full of refugees/wailing victims.

Explanation: figuratively speaking, there are victims of moaning and screaming everywhere. Ai Hong: A wailing wild goose.

There is a poem named Hongyan in The Book of Songs Xiaoya. Two of them are: "The geese are flying and they are crying."

It means: Hongyan can't find a place to live, flying aimlessly and crying sadly. Describe the tragic scene of displaced refugees moaning for help.

Because of these two poems, people later called the restless refugees "mourning for the flood"; There are so many people suffering in almost every place that people say that they are "sad everywhere" or "sad everywhere"

The word "wow" in the original poem is often used to describe the noisy sound of crying and hunger, such as "crying and longing for something to eat"

Love me, love my dog

Explanation: It is a metaphor for loving a person and caring about people or things related to him.

According to legend, Shang Zhouwang was the last monarch of Shang Dynasty. He was extravagant and cruel. Jichang, the Xibe nationality, later Zhou Wenwang, tried every means to escape from prison because he opposed the imprisonment of Zhou Wang. At that time, the capital of Zhou was Qishan (now Qishan County, Shaanxi Province). After returning to Qishan, Zhou Wenwang was determined to overthrow the rule of Shang Dynasty. First, he hired Jiang Shang (Jiang Taigong), a military strategist, to actively train and prepare for war, and then he annexed several small vassal states around him, and his power gradually grew. Subsequently, the capital moved to Fengyi (now near Huxian County, Shaanxi Province) and prepared to move eastward. However, Zhou Wenwang died shortly after moving the capital.

Zhou Wenwang's son Ji Fa succeeded to the throne, namely Zhou Wuwang. Jiang Taigong continues to be a strategist. King Wu's half-brother Ji Dan (Duke Zhou) and half-brother Ji (Zhao Gong) are two right-hand men of King Wu. At the same time, King Wu won the support of several other governors. So, it was officially announced that it would send troops to attack Zhou. The army crossed the Yellow River in Jin Meng (now a Yellow River ferry in the south of Mengxian County, Henan Province) and advanced to the northeast, approaching Song Chao in Shang Dynasty (now the northeast of Qixian County, Henan Province). Because Shang Zhouwang had lost his heart, the army didn't want to die for him. He ran away and the uprising was soon conquered. Zhou Wang committed suicide, and the Shang Dynasty was over. In the next 800 years, it became the world of Zhou Dynasty, known as the Zhou Dynasty.

At the beginning of Zhou Wuwang's conquest of Chao Ge, King Wu was not sure how to deal with the nobles and officials left over from Shang Dynasty and whether he could stabilize the situation, so he was worried. To this end, he held consultations with Jiang Taigong and others. There is such a written record in Shuo Yuan Gui Fa compiled by Liu Xiang in Han Dynasty:

"Yin Ke, the king of Wu, summoned Taigong and asked,' What about the Naiqi people?' Taigong said to him:' I love people who love them, and I love black houses; People who hate others hate others. What if Xian Liu defeated the enemy and made it more than enough? Zhou Wuwang defeated the Shang Dynasty, summoned Jiang Taigong and asked, "What should we do with their personnel?" Taigong replied, "I heard that if you love that person, you will also love the crow on his house;" If you hate that man, get rid of his servants and servants. What do you think of killing all the enemies and leaving none? "

The so-called "Seo Woo" in the original text refers to the petty officials, slave owners and nobles' housekeepers with the lowest status. (Yu, Wei, etc. ; Xu; Small officials. )

There is a similar record in The Biography of Shangshu edited by Fu Sheng in Han Dynasty: "When you die, the prince of Wu is undecided. He called the squire and asked, "What can I do if I enter Yin?" Said the squire, "I heard that; People who love him are also black houses; People who don't love others, and his spare time. " "

This record is similar to that in Shuo Yuan. However, the word "Seo Woo" is written as "Yu Xu", and their meanings are different. "Yu Xu" no longer belongs to the level of professional history, but is a slave or criminal below "Seo Woo". For example, Shang Zhouwang's "Taishi" Kiko was imprisoned because of dissatisfaction, and pretended to be crazy and willing to be a slave, so Zhuangzi called him "Yu Xu".

In addition, The Story of Six Towers in Han Dynasty and Wen Yi also recorded the above conversation, and the contents are basically the same. Because of this legend, the idiom "love me, love my dog" came into being.

China has had a superstitious custom since ancient times, believing that the crow is an "ominous bird", and whoever lands on its house will suffer misfortune. In the Xiaoya section of The Book of Songs, the oldest collection of poems in China, there is a poem entitled "The First Month", which includes "Whose home is this?" It can be seen that the ancients hated crows, but few people loved them. The so-called "love me, love my dog" means that even his crows don't think it is ominous or annoying because I love that person. This idiom has always been used as a metaphor to promote love. Because you love a person deeply, you love his relatives, friends, other people or other things. This is called "love me, love my dog" or "love me, love my dog".

Du Fu, a poet in the Tang Dynasty, wrote in "Giving Li Shehong": "Shehong, the place name, is in today's Sichuan; In Li's poem, the first two sentences are: "It is good for a husband to live in a house, and he is good." There is a saying in the Song Dynasty's "Poems of Lianxi" by Zhou Dunyi: "Angry crabs in water, love my house and my dog". There is also a saying in the Song Dynasty's Li Jiao Bo Yi: "When it is clear, I look at the birds in front of the door and people look at the black in the house." They all use the idiom "love me, love my dog".

Take a walk instead of riding in a carriage and enjoy it as well.

He said: "Shu is willing to return, eat meat at night, drive slowly, innocence is precious, and quietness is a concern."

This explanation means walking slowly, just like driving.

During the Warring States Period, there was a scholar named Yan Shu in the State of Qi. Qi Xuanwang longed for his name and called him into the palace. Yan Shu casually walked into the palace and came to the front steps. Seeing Wang Xuan waiting for his visit, he stopped, stopped. When King Xuan saw this, he shouted, "Yan Shu, come quickly!" Unexpectedly, Yan Shu remained motionless and called to Xuan Wang, "Your Majesty, come quickly!" King Xuan was very unhappy. Seeing Yan Shu's arrogant words, the ministers around him said, "Your Majesty is the monarch and you are a subject. Your majesty can call you here, or you can call your majesty here. How can you do this? " Yan Shu said: "if I go to see the king, it shows that I am jealous of his power;" If the king comes, it means that he is a respectable corporal. Instead of making me envy the king's power, I might as well let corporal Dayu be virtuous. Qi Xuanwang asked angrily, "Is the king noble or the scholar noble?" Yan Shu said without thinking: "Of course, scholars are nobles, but kings are not!" King Xuan said, "Do you have any basis for saying this?" Yan Shu smiled and said, "Of course. Once upon a time, when the State of Qin attacked the State of Qi, the King of Qin ordered: Whoever dares to cut wood within 50 steps of the high tomb will be killed! He also ordered that whoever can cut off the head of the King of Qi will be named Wan Huhou, and the reward will be dry. From this perspective, the head of a living monarch is even worse than the grave of a dead scholar. " Qi Xuanwang was speechless and unhappy. Ministers hurriedly said, "Yan Shu, come here! Yan Shu, come here! Our king owns a country with thousands of chariots (1000 art books). Who dares to disobey? The king has everything he wants, and everyone is obedient. You gentlemen are so mean! Yan Shu retorted, "What you said is wrong! In the era of Dayu, there were as many governors as there were countries. Why is this? Because he respects scholars. By the time of Shang Tang, there were as many as three thousand governors. Today, only 24 people are lonely. From this perspective, paying attention to scholars is the key to success. Since ancient times, no one can be famous for being unrealistic. Therefore, your father should be ashamed of not asking people often and not learning from people with low status. King Xuan felt that he was wrong and said, "I'm asking for trouble." I didn't know the villain's behavior until I heard your words. I hope you can accept me as your student and you will be with me in the future. I promise you have meat to eat and a car to drive when you go out. Your wife and children will all dress up beautifully. "Yan Shu said to politely declined," jade was originally produced in the mountains. If it is processed by craftsmen, it will be broken. "Although it is still precious, it has lost its original appearance after all. Scholars are born in the hinterland, and if they are selected, they will enjoy the benefits; It's not that he can't be noble, but that his foreign style and inner world will be destroyed. Therefore, I would rather hope that the king would let me go back, eat later every day, walk steadily and slowly enough to be a bus; The days of peace are no worse than those of the powerful. Quiet, pure and self-control, enjoy it. It was your king who ordered me to speak, and it was my Yan Shu who faithfully declared. " Yan Shu said, "After making two obeisances to Xuan Wang, he left for the DPRK.

Sweet food, beautiful clothes, a peaceful life and the custom of enjoying it.

Interpretation means a happy and stable life.

In the Spring and Autumn Period of the story, there was a famous philosopher and thinker. His surname is Li and his name is Er. It is said that when he was born, he had white hair. A little old man with a white beard; So people call him "Lao Zi"; He also said that he was born under a plum tree, so his surname is Li; Because of his big ears, he is called "ears". In fact, Lao Tzu is a respectful name for him. He was always dissatisfied with the reality at that time, opposed the wave of social innovation at that time and wanted to go back. He missed the ancient primitive society and thought that material progress and cultural development destroyed people's simplicity and brought people pain, so he longed for an ideal society of "small country and few people". He always describes his "small country with few people" society like this: the country is small and the population is sparse. Even if there are many electrical appliances, don't use them. Don't let people risk their lives, and don't move far away. Even if there are cars and boats, no one will take them. Even if there are weapons and equipment, there is nowhere to use them. It is necessary for people to re-use the ancient knotting method to record, eat sweetly, dress comfortably and live comfortably, and be satisfied with the original customs and habits. Neighboring countries can see each other. Crows and dogs can hear each other's voices, but people will not communicate with each other until they die of old age.

An Ran Wu Xiao

Explanation: Nothing happened, no damage or accident happened. Disease, disease, disaster.

In 266 BC, Zhao Huiwen, the monarch of the State of Zhao, died, and his son Taizi Dan was succeeded by Zhao Chengxiao. As Xiao is still young, his mother Zhao is responsible for handling state affairs. Zhao is a wise and knowledgeable middle-aged woman. When she was just in charge of state affairs, Qin stepped up her attack on Zhao. When Zhao was in danger, he asked Qi for help. Qi asked Zhao to send her youngest son to Qi as a hostage before sending troops. Zhao didn't want to keep his youngest son, but after listening to the minister's advice, he sent him to Qi often. Qi sent troops to help Zhao beat back Qin Jun.

On one occasion, the King of Qi sent messengers to Zhao to greet Zhao Houwei with letters. Wei Hou asked the messenger before opening the letter. "Qi's harvest is not bad, is it? Are people safe? Is the King of Qi healthy? "

The envoy of the State of Qi was very unhappy and said, "I was sent by the King of Qi to greet you. Now, don't ask the king of Qi first, but ask the harvest and the people first. Can you put the lowly in front and the noble in the back? "

Wei Hou smiled and said, "No.. If there is no harvest, how can anyone? If there is no people, how can there be a monarch? Can you give up the basic questions and ask only secondary questions when greeting? "

Hearing this, the angel of Qi was speechless for a while. This allusion to "innocence" later evolved into the idiom "innocence".

As strong as Mount Tai-as strong as a rock.

Explanation:

As steady as Mount Tai. The description is very stable and unshakable.

This idiom comes from Mei Cheng's "Writing to the King of Wu" in the Western Han Dynasty, and the words of loyal ministers will be appreciated. If you want to do whatever you want, it is dangerous to accumulate eggs and it is difficult to get through; Do whatever you want, change hands easily, and be content with Mount Tai.

Mei Cheng, Zi Shu, a native of Huaiyin (now Jiangsu) in the Western Han Dynasty, was a famous writer in the Han Dynasty. When Emperor Jing of Han Dynasty was Emperor Jing, he worked as a doctor in Liu Bi's mansion.

Guo Guan was a big country among the governors at that time, and Liu Bi, the prince of Wu, was ambitious, resentful of the central government and secretly planned rebellion. Han Jing appointed Chao Cuo, a brilliant politician, as an ancient adviser, while Chao Cuo advocated reducing the territory of vassal states, strengthening the power and prestige of the central government and consolidating national unity. Seeing that the territory of some governors was cut, Liu Bi knew that he was inevitable, so he contacted the governors of Chu, Zhao, Jiaoxi, Jiaodong and other countries to plot rebellion.

Mei Cheng clearly saw the evil of Liu Bi's conspiracy and rebellion, so he wrote a letter to persuade the king of Wu to persuade Liu Bi. In "exhortation", he said: "If you can listen to loyal ministers, all disasters can be avoided. If you must do what you want to do, it is more dangerous than folding eggs and more difficult than heaven; However, if you can change your original idea as soon as possible, it will be easier than flipping your palm, which will also make your position more stable than Mount Tai. "

However, Liu Bi was stubborn and stepped up her conspiracy activities. Therefore, Mei Cheng had to leave the State of Wu and visit Liuwufu in Liang Xiaowang. In BC 154, Liu Bi contacted the princes of Chu, Zhao, Jiaoxi and Jiaodong and launched a rebellion in the name of "killing Chao Cuo on the side of Qing Dynasty". Historically, it was called "the rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms with Wu and Chu".

Han Jing listened to rumors, killed Chao Cuo and apologized to the vassal. At this time, Mei Cheng wrote a letter to advise the king of Wu, urging Liu Bi to stop fighting. Liu Bi still refused to turn back. Soon, Zhou Yafu, a general of the Han Dynasty, led the army to defeat the rebels in Wu Chu. Liu E, the king of Chu, committed suicide, and Liu Bi, the king of Wu, fled to East Vietnam and was killed. The other five kings also committed suicide or were killed. The rebellion was a complete failure in only three months. After the rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms was put down, Mei Yuan became famous for his foresight in writing "Letter to the King of Wu".

Later, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty ascended the throne and sent someone to recruit him to be an official in Beijing. Unfortunately, he died on the road before he got to Beijing.

Buy the box, but return the pearls.

During the Spring and Autumn Period, there was a merchant in the State of Chu who specialized in selling jewelry. Once he went to Qi to do business and sell jewelry.

Well, in order to sell jewelry better, many small boxes are made of precious wood. These boxes are beautifully carved and decorated.

Look, let the box smell, and then put the jewels in the box.

A man from Zheng saw the box containing the orb beautifully and beautifully. After asking the price, he bought one and opened the box.

Son, take out the treasure inside and return it to the jeweler.

(of an unknown person) achieved amazing results at the first attempt.

During the Warring States Period, there was a man named Chunyu Kun in the State of Qi. He has a glib tongue and is good at talking. He often matches something.

Interesting code words to convince the monarch, so that the king is not only not angry, but also willing to accept it.

At that time, the King of Qi was originally a very clever monarch, but he became addicted to debauchery after he succeeded to the throne.

Regardless of state affairs, he only knows how to drink and have fun every day. He leaves all the important things to the minister, but he doesn't care. because

Under this circumstance, politics was not on the right track, officials were corrupt and dereliction of duty, and governors of various countries also took the opportunity to invade, making Qi on the verge of extinction.

On the verge of death.

Although some patriots in Qi were worried, they were all afraid of the King of Qi, so no one came out to persuade them.

Suggestions.

In fact, Qi Weiwang is a very clever man. He likes to say some code words to show his wisdom, although he doesn't like listening.

Other people's suggestions, but if they are correct, he will still accept them. When Chunyu Kun found out, he thought of a plan.

Policy, ready to find opportunities to advise Qi Weiwang.

One day, Chunyu Kun met him and said to him, "Your Majesty, I want you to guess a riddle for Chen."

This state-owned juicy bird has lived in the king's court for three years, but it has neither fluttered nor been named.

Just curled up aimlessly, guess, your majesty, what kind of bird is this? "

Qi Weiwang is a wise man. You can see from his hearing that Chunyu Kun is satirizing himself, as a country like that big bird.

Respect, but nothing, only pleasure. When he was no longer a fatuous king, Shen Yin spent some time.

He resolutely decided to turn over a new leaf, cheer up and do something vigorous, so he said to Chunyu Kun:

"Well, this big bird, you don't know, it doesn't fly, it doesn't rush into the sky, it doesn't make a sound, it makes a sound.

Whether it will disturb everyone, we will wait and see! "

From then on, Qi Weiwang stopped drinking and began to rectify the country. First, he summoned officials from all over the country and asked them to be loyal and responsible.

Give rewards; Those corrupt and incompetent people will be punished. As a result, the whole country quickly cheered up and went everywhere.

Full of vigor and vitality.

On the other hand, he also set out to rectify the military, use strong force, and establish the prestige of the country. After hearing the news,

Everyone was shocked. Not only did they dare not invade again, but they even returned all the land they occupied to Qi.

What Qi Weiwang has done is really a "blockbuster"!

Therefore, people later used the idiom "blockbuster" to describe a person with extraordinary talent, as long as he can.

If you use it well, once you play it out, you will often have amazing achievements.

Decorate yourself with borrowed feathers

During the Warring States period, Chu was the most powerful, and he was afraid of his general Zhao for the sake of the northern country at that time.

Xi t-shirt, and feel strange. So he asked the North Korean minister why.

At that time, a minister named Jiang Yi told him the following story:

"A long time ago, there was a tiger in the cave. Because he was hungry, he ran outside to look for food. When he came to a place,

When I was in the dense forest, I suddenly saw a fox walking in front of me. He thinks this is a golden opportunity.

Yes, he jumped over and caught him effortlessly.

But when it opened its mouth to eat the fox, the sly fox suddenly spoke:

Hum! Don't think that you are the king of beasts and dare to swallow me; You know, heaven and earth ordered me to be king.

Your Majesty, whoever eats me will be severely punished by heaven and earth. The tiger listened to the fox with a grain of salt.

However, when he tilted his head and saw the fox's arrogant and calm appearance, he was surprised. The original arrogance.

I don't know when most of them disappeared Even so, he still thinks in his heart: I am a hundred.

The king of beasts, so any beast in the world will be afraid to see me. It turned out that he was ordered by Emperor Fengtian to rule us!

At this time, the fox saw the tiger hesitate to eat it, and knew that it had already believed his words a little.

So he puffed out his chest more proudly, then pointed to the tiger's nose and said, "What, you don't believe what I said?"

Really? So come with me now, walk behind me and see if all the wild animals are scared out of their wits when they see me.

Running around. The tiger thought it was a good idea and did it.

So the fox swaggered ahead, while the tiger followed carefully. They didn't leave much.

For a long time, I vaguely saw the depths of the forest. Many small animals were fighting for food, but when they found themselves walking behind the fox.

When the tiger was in front of him, he couldn't help but run away in fright.

At this moment, the fox turned to look at the tiger proudly. Seeing this situation, the tiger can't help but feel a little scared.

But he doesn't know that wild animals are afraid of themselves, but he thinks they are really afraid of foxes!

The cunning fox's plan succeeded, but his strength was entirely due to the tiger's disguise, so he could threaten in a favorable situation at this moment.

Threatening the beast and the poor tiger to be fooled and not know it!

Therefore, the reason why the northern people are afraid of Zhao Xi's shirt is entirely because the king's soldiers are in his hands, that is to say,

Speaking of which, what they are afraid of is actually the power of the king! "

From the above story, we can know that anyone oppresses others by virtue of the power of authority or position.

Anyone who is arrogant can be described as a fox pretending to be a tiger.

Unite for evil purposes

Twenty-six years of King Xiang of Chu in the Spring and Autumn Period. Chu sent troops to invade Zheng. At that time, Zheng was as strong and weak as Chu, but it really didn't.

Those who were able to resist, as a result, Zheng suffered a crushing defeat, and even Zheng was captured by the generals of Chu. The war is over.

Later, the Chu army was surrounded by the king of Chu, who wanted to take away Zheng Jiezhi's credit, saying that Zheng Jiezhi was captured by him, so he wore a seal.

The two of them had an argument, and they refused to give way to each other, so there was no way to solve it at the moment. Later, they asked Li Bo.

Be a just person and judge who is responsible for this.

Bozhou Plough's solution to the dispute was fair, and he insisted that it was best to ask Zheng who was captured.

Wang. So I ordered someone to take Zheng to Bozhou and explain the reason to him. Then I reached out my finger and used it to represent Chu Wangdi.

Gong Ziwei put your finger on behalf of Chu, and then asked him who was captured. Zheng was very brave when he was captured, wearing a decree.

He hated him and pointed to his upper finger, indicating that he was caught by the palace. Therefore, Bozhou Tiangang decided that this was caused by Gongziwei.

The idiom "practise fraud" comes from this story; It means cheating in the game and turning right from wrong.

In today's society, this often happens: for example, someone has done something illegal and knows that he should be punished.

Can't escape the bad luck of being punished; So he secretly bribed, or asked relatives and friends to intercede for cover, which led to great things.

Small things, small things, have to get away with it. People who participate in it like this and exploit legal loopholes to get in the way can be said to be: "Go up."

Under his command. "

Retreat to avoid conflict

During the Spring and Autumn Period, Jin Xiangong listened to rumors, killed Prince Shen Sheng, and sent someone to arrest Shen Sheng's younger brother Zhong Er. Zhong Er heard the news, escaped from the state of Jin, and forgot about it for more than ten years.

After many hardships, Zhong Er came to the State of Chu. King Chu Cheng thought that Zhong Er would make great achievements in the future, so he greeted him with gifts from other countries and treated him as a distinguished guest.

One day, the King of Chu hosted a banquet in honor of Zhong Er. The two chatted and the atmosphere was very harmonious. Suddenly, the king of Chu asked Zhong Er, "How will you repay me if you return to the State of Jin and become a monarch one day?" Zhong Er thought for a moment and said, "Beautiful women are waiting for you, precious silk. You have many rare birds' feathers and ivory, which are more abundant in Chu. What rare things does Jin Wang have? The king of Chu said, "Your son is too modest. Having said that, you should show me something, right? " Zhong Er replied with a smile, "Thanks to you. If I can really return to China to be in power, I would like to get along well with your country. If one day, there is a war between Jin Chu, I will definitely order the troops to retreat first (one room is equal to 30 miles). If I can't get your forgiveness, I'll fight you again. "

Four years later, Zhong Er really returned to the State of Jin and became a monarch. This is the famous Jin Wengong in history. The state of Jin became stronger and stronger under his rule.

In 633 BC, the armies of Chu and Jin met in battle. In order to fulfill his promise, Jin Wengong ordered the troops to retreat 90 miles and stay in Chengpu. When the Chu army saw the retreat of the Jin army, it thought that the other party was afraid and immediately pursued it. The Jin army took advantage of the weakness of the Chu army's pride and underestimation of the enemy, concentrated its forces and defeated the Chu army, and won the battle of Chengpu.

This story comes from Twenty-two Years of Xi Gong in Zuo Zhuan. The idiom "give up three houses" means not to argue with others or give in voluntarily.

Quench thirst by thinking of plum-comfort yourself with illusory hope

One summer, Cao Cao led a crusade against Zhang Xiu. The weather is unusually hot, the sun is like fire, and there is not a cloud in the sky. The troops walked on the winding mountain road, surrounded by dense trees and rocks scorched by the sun, which made people breathless. By noon, the soldiers' clothes were soaked, the marching speed slowed down, and several weak soldiers fainted on the side of the road.

Cao Cao was worried that the marching speed was getting slower and slower, and that the fighter plane would be delayed. However, at present, thousands of people can't even drink water. How can we speed up? He immediately called the tour guide and asked him in a low voice, "Is there a water source near here?" The guide shook his head and said, "The spring is on the other side of the valley. The detour is very long. " Cao Cao thought for a moment and said, "No, it's too late." He looked at the forest in front of him, thought for a moment, and said to the guide, "Don't say anything, I'll think of something." He knew that even if he ordered the troops to speed up at the moment, it would not help. A brainwave, the solution came. He grabbed the horse by the stomach and quickly rushed to the front of the team. Pointing at the front with a whip, he said, "Soldiers, I know there is a large area of Merlin in front, where the plums are big and delicious. Let's hurry around this hill and go to Meilin! " Hearing this, the soldiers seemed to have eaten it in their mouths, and their spirits were greatly boosted, and their pace could not help but accelerate a lot.

The story comes from the false prediction in Shi Shuo Xin Yu. The idiom "looking at plums to quench thirst" means comforting yourself or others with fantasy.
