Arrogantly
During the Spring and Autumn Period, King Wu of Chu sent his general Qu Xia to attack Luo.Dou Bobi, a doctor of the state of Chu, went to see him off.On the way back, he said to his attendants: "I think Qu Xia will be defeated this time. Look at the way he walks, with his feet raised high, and he is full of air. He must not have taken the enemy seriously." .(The original text is: 'Raise your toes high, and your heart will not be firm.')”

Dou Bobi went to see King Wu of Chu as soon as he came back.He said to King Wu: "Please hurry up and send troops to support Qu Xia." King Wu of Chu was a little surprised and said: "We have no troops to send. You know that, why do you say that?" Deng Man is a smart woman. She said to King Wu: "I think Dou Bobi's words mean that you are not really asking you to send reinforcements, but to tell you that Qu Xia is self-righteous in sending troops this time. , This time attacking Luo is a trivial matter, the so-called arrogant soldiers will lose. He is reminding you to teach Qu Xia a lesson." Chu Wu Wang came to his senses, so he hurriedly sent people to chase Qu Xia, but he was unable to catch up.

When Qu Xia led the troops across Yanshui, because he didn't plan seriously in advance, he was flanked by Luo's army and was defeated.Qu Xia felt ashamed to go back to see King Wu of Chu, so he ran into the valley alone and committed suicide.When King Wu of Chu heard the news, he said very sadly: "This is my fault. I did not listen to everyone's opinions and sent Qu Xia as a general, which led to today's failure."

The idiom "toe high and arrogant" evolved from "raise the toe high, and the heart is not firm", which describes the appearance of being arrogant and self-satisfied.Toe, toe, here refers to footsteps; gas, air, emotion.

Ashamed
During the Jin Dynasty, there was a hussar general named Wang Ji, who was handsome and gracious in his dealings with others.Although he is a soldier with a knife and a gun, he usually reads and discusses scriptures, is very talented, and is quite famous in the city.

One year, Wang Ji's nephew, Wei Jie, mother and son came to seek refuge with Wang Ji.Wei Jie was the most famous handsome man in the Jin Dynasty. "Shi Shuo Xin Yu" said that Wei Jie "has a beautiful wind and a weak body", which is exactly the standard that women in the Wei and Jin Dynasties like-morbid beauty.Wang Ji was stunned when he saw Wei Jie so handsome and personable.He said to Wei Mu: "People say that I am very beautiful. Compared with my nephew now, it is like putting stones and bright jewels together. I am really ugly!" I feel dirty.')"

A few days later, Wang Ji took Wei Jie to visit relatives and friends on horseback, and took Wei Jie to play around.Walking to the street, everyone who saw Wei Jie thought he was carved from white jade, and everyone rushed to watch, crowding each other, which almost caused a sensation in the whole city.After finally arriving at the relatives' house, the relatives and friends wanted to know whether Wei Jie was outstanding in knowledge besides his beautiful appearance, so they insisted on him explaining the metaphysical principles.Wei Jie couldn't refuse, so he started talking.He did not speak for a long time, but none of the listeners did not praise him for his profound and thorough speech.People laughed and said: "It seems that the three sons of your Wang family are not as good as one son of the Wei family!" Wang Ji said, "Yes, walking with my nephew is like a bright pearl beside you, shining brightly." .” That is to say, there is a bright pearl beside me, shining brightly.

Later, people used "self-ashamed" to describe feeling ashamed because they are not as good as others in a certain way.Ashamed, ashamed; ugly, ugly.

Separate
Such a story is recorded in the history book "Zuo Zhuan" of the Warring States Period.Guisheng, son of the state of Zheng, listened to the opinion of the state of Chu and prepared to send troops to attack the state of Song.Song Guo sent Hua Yuan and Le Lu to lead troops to resist, and the two armies set up camp at Daji, preparing to fight.

Before the war came, Hua Yuan, the coach of the Song Dynasty, killed sheep to reward the soldiers in order to boost morale.However, when he was rewarding the soldiers, he forgot to reward his coachman with sheep and meat.Yang Chun held a grudge because of this, and always wanted to find a chance to take revenge on Hua Yuan.

When it was time to fight, Yang Zhu thought to himself: Usually you don't take me seriously, but today I will let you see how good I am.Just as he was thinking, Hua Yuan came to ask him to drive.Yang Zhen quietly got the car ready and told Hua Yuan to get in the car.Hua Yuan got into the car, and when he was halfway there, Yang Zhu said to Hua Yuan, "A few days ago, you rewarded the soldiers and divided the mutton. It's up to you to decide. Today I'm driving, so where to go is up to me." (The original text is: "The sheep in the past were in charge of politics, and today's affairs are in charge of me.") Then, he whipped his horse and drove Hua Yuan's chariot straight to Zheng Jun's position. He became a prisoner of Zheng Jun.

Later, people summed up Yang Zhen's words as "doing their own thing", which is used to mean acting according to one's own ideas, regardless of the whole, and not cooperating with others.For politics, to manage political affairs, generally refers to doing things.

Mentinuo
During the Warring States period, Zou Ji, the prime minister of Qi, was tall and dignified.In order to persuade King Qiwei to let go of his words and encourage his ministers to remonstrate, he told King Qiwei such a story:
One morning, he put on his court clothes.Put on the hat, look at it in the mirror, and then ask his wife: "Compared with Mr. Xu in the north of the city, who is handsome?" You are very handsome. How can Mr. Xu compare with you? said the wife.

Xu Gong is a famous handsome man in Qi State. After hearing about his wife's work, Zou Ji didn't dare to believe that he was really more handsome than Xu Gong, so he asked his concubine again, and the concubine replied: "How can Xu Gong Comparable to you?"

The next day, a guest came to Zou Ji's house. Zou Ji asked the guest again, and the guest said, "how can Mr. Xu be as handsome as you?" He looked at Mr. Xu carefully and compared him with himself.As a result, he found that he was not as beautiful as Mr. Xu.

So he said to King Qiwei: "I was not as beautiful as Xu Gong, but my wife, concubine and guests all said that I was more beautiful than him. I don’t want to tell the truth. But our country of Qi is such a big place, everyone in the palace does not favor you, no one is afraid of you, no one in the whole country wants to be cared by you, it seems that the people who compliment you must be More, you must have been deceived very seriously!"

Zou Ji also advised: "Now that the Qi State is thousands of miles away and has many cities, your majesty has contacted many more people than me, and he must have been deceived more. If your majesty can ask for opinions openly and honestly, it will definitely benefit the country." After hearing this, King Qi Wei felt that it was very reasonable, and immediately ordered: "Whoever can point out my faults in person will be rewarded; anyone who can give me a memorial to persuade me will be rewarded; anyone who discusses my faults in the court or in the market will be rewarded." And if it reaches my ears, give me a reward!" With an order, the ministers went to appeal, and there was a constant flow of people, and the gate of the court was as lively as a market every day.

During the Spring and Autumn Period, the State of Lu suffered from a severe famine. Duke Xiao of Qi felt that the opportunity to expand his strength had come, so he led an army to crusade against the State of Lu.Duke Xi of Lu heard that the enemy was pressing down on the border, and knew that he could not fight against the Qi army, so he sent his doctor Zhan Xi as an envoy to the Qi army.Zhan Xi stopped Qi Xiaogong on the Qilu border day and night.

Zhanxi is a very eloquent person. He first said respectfully to Qi Xiaogong: "Our king heard that the king has come to our country in person, and specially sent me to comfort your army." Qi Xiaogong asked arrogantly: "You Lu people are afraid. Is it?" Zhan Xi replied: "People without knowledge may be a little scared, but our king is not afraid at all." Qi Xiaogong didn't believe it: "Your state treasury is empty, and you can't even see the grass in the fields. Why not be afraid? (The original text is: 'Why not be afraid?')”

Zhanxi replied calmly: "We rely on the will of King Cheng of Zhou. Back then, Duke Zhou, the ancestor of the State of Lu, and Taigong Jiang, the ancestor of the State of Qi, assisted King Cheng loyally and in unison. The world is governed in a stable and prosperous way. King Cheng is very grateful to the two of them and asked them to make an oath that the children and grandchildren should be friendly from generation to generation and not harm each other. This is recorded in the history books. We are relying on this , I am not afraid. (The original text is: "Rely on this to not be afraid.')" Qi Xiaogong heard this, felt wronged, and had no words to answer, so he gave up the idea of ​​crusade, and led the army back.In this way, a big battle was resolved by Zhanxi's few words.

The idiom "you have no fear" is extracted from this story.It means that because there is something to rely on, there is nothing to be afraid of.rely on, rely on, rely on; fear, fear, fear.

There was a man who lived in Yingdu. He had a friend who was a minister of Yan.One night, he wrote a letter to his friend in the country of Yan and asked his servant to stand by and hold a candle.The light of the candle was not too bright, and his eyes were blurry, so he couldn't see what he wrote clearly, so he said to his servant: "Raise the candle!" "These two completely unrelated words were written on the letter.

The friend was very happy when the letter was delivered to the country of Yan. He opened it and read it, but when he saw the words "raise candle", it was not coherent with the context, and he couldn't figure out what it meant.He pondered, pondered, and finally realized it suddenly, and said to himself: "That's right, that's right. 'Holding a candle' is for the eyes to see clearly. To make the eyes see clearly and not be deceived, you must You have to use honest people to do things." He told Yan Wang what he meant.

The king of Yan adopted his words, invited many honest people to handle affairs, and managed the country well.
