Walking in brocade clothes at night refers to walking in gorgeous clothes at night, which is a metaphor for not being able to show one's glory and wealth in front of others. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

In the "Historical Records: Xiang Yu's Biography", after Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, captured Xianyang, some people persuaded him to set the capital of Xianyang, but he missed his hometown, Xiang Yu was anxious to return to the east and said: Wealth does not return to his hometown, such as brocade clothes at night, who knows. At that time, Xiang Yu led his troops to attack the west to occupy Xianyang, slaughtered in Xianyang City, killed the prince of Qin in front of the battle, and burned the palace of the king of Qin without extinguishing it for three months. plundered the treasures and women of the Qin Dynasty. A generation of strategists Han Sheng persuaded Xiang Yu to set the capital of Xianyang, Guanzhong this place, there are mountains and rivers as barriers, Guanshan is dangerous and there are fortresses everywhere, the population is thriving, the land is fertile, and the capital can be achieved here. But Xiang Yu didn't listen, seeing that the palace of the Qin Dynasty was burned and dilapidated, he missed his hometown and wanted to go back. Han Sheng said: People say that Chu people are crowned with monkeys, and sure enough. Xiang Yu was furious when he heard this, so he put Han Sheng in a big pot and boiled it. If the rich and noble don't return to their hometowns, is it really a night walk in brocade?

During the Li and Tang dynasties, why did Li Yuan choose Chang'an as his capital, and didn't he want to go back to his hometown of Longxi Chengji? Xianyang was the ancient capital of the 13 dynasties, and how many emperors were really Xianyang natives? Since ancient times, Xianyang has been protected by natural hazards, and Hangu Pass is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the land is fertile. But did Xiang Yu lead the 8,000 Jiangdong disciples to return to their hometowns? I think it was really an unwise choice for Xiang Yu to finally settle on Pengcheng. At this time, you are the emperor, and the kings of the world who initially decided to divide Xiang Yu are also eyeing each other. You are not a famous minister, you are not a rich businessman, and you do not have the right to return to your hometown. And your willfulness and self-righteousness have made the good situation disappear, and the capital is Xianyang, which is an extremely far-sighted strategic vision. And you killed the strategist Han Sheng, and the people of the world thought that you were unkind and unjust, and that the Chu people were crowned by Mu Monkey, and no one in the world dared to tell you the truth from then on. Xiang Yu may have won temporarily in some battles, but he relied on his own bravery, he would not use people, and he despised people from poor backgrounds. When Xiang Yu was angry, he shouted, and the thousands of people next to him would be so frightened by him that they didn't dare to move, but he didn't know how to use talented strategists and good generals, this was just the courage of a horseman, and in the end, the construction of the capital Pengcheng also made him lose the treasure land of Guanzhong.

I think Xiang Yu's failure also reflects the trend of today's society, many people have a small achievement and are indispensable. Although some people say that dreams are as big as achievements, but the leaders of all walks of life in China, that is not to be prepared for danger in times of peace. I remember that there is a line in the I Ching Diagram: A gentleman must have the perseverance and perseverance to overcome all difficulties in order to create a legend.
