[Idiom]: Indiscriminate filling

Pinyin: gshu

[Explanation]: Indiscriminate: false, false. Those who don't know how to play the flute are mixed in the team of the flute. It is a metaphor for those who have no skills to pretend to have skills, and inferior goods to pretend to be good goods.

【Idiom Story】:

The indiscriminate use of the idiom is untrue, inconsistent with the truth, and by extension, it means to be confused; The zhu is a reed wind instrument; Filling is making up the number. It refers to people who do not have real talent and real learning to be mixed with experts to fill the number, or shoddy, and sometimes used as a word of self-humility.

This idiom comes from "Han Feizi. The inner prince said that the king of Qi Xuan made people blow the rod, and there will be three hundred people. Nanguo priest asked for the king to blow the pipe, Xuan Wang said, and the food was hundreds of people. King Xuan died, and the hidden king was established, so that he could hear it one by one, and the priest fled.

During the Warring States Period, King Qi Xuan was very fond of listening to people playing the flute, and liked many people to play it together, so King Qi Xuan sent people everywhere to search for musicians who could play well, and formed a 300-person piped pipe. And those musicians who were selected to enter the palace were treated particularly favorably.

At that time, there was a wandering child named Nan Guo who was idle and did not do his job. When he heard that King Qi Xuan had this hobby, he wanted to get into that band, so he tried to meet King Xuan, boasted to him that he was a great musician, won King Xuan's favor, and put him in the class of musicians who played the flute. The funny thing is that this Mr. Nan Guo can't blow the flute at all. Whenever the band played for King Qi Xuan, he would mix in the team, learn from other musicians, shake his head, sway, and pretend to play there. Because he learned so well, and because it was hundreds of people playing together, King Qi Xuan couldn't tell who could and who couldn't. In this way, Nan Guo has been mixed for several years, not only did he not show a trace of flaws, but also received a generous reward like other musicians and lived a comfortable life.

Later, King Qi Xuan died, and his son Qi Qianwang succeeded to the throne, and Qianwang also loved to listen to the pipe. The only difference is that he doesn't like ensembles, but prefers musicians to play them individually.

When Mr. Nan Guo heard the news, he was so frightened that he sweated all day long. I thought to myself, this time I was going to show my feet, losing my job was a trivial matter, and if I was accused of bullying the king, I wouldn't even be able to save my head. So, before the Hidden King asked him to play, he quickly slipped away.

The story of the love house and the black house

[Popularity: 170355]

Interpretation:

It is a metaphor for loving someone and caring for someone or something that is related to him.

Legend has it that the king of Shang in the last dynasty of the Yin Shang dynasty was a poor, extravagant, brutal and unscrupulous emperor (see "Helping the Emperor to Abuse"). "Xibo" (the chief of the western princes) Ji Chang, who later became King Wen of Zhou, was imprisoned because of his opposition to King Xu, and he was able to get out of prison by many means. At that time, the capital of Zhou was in Qishan (present-day Qishan County, Shaanxi Province), and when King Wen of Zhou returned to Qishan, he was determined to overthrow the rule of the Shang Dynasty. He first hired the military strategist Jiang Shang (i.e., Jiang Taigong) as a military advisor, actively trained troops to prepare for war, and annexed several neighboring princely states, and his power gradually became stronger. Then, he moved the capital east to Fengyi (near present-day Huxian County, Shaanxi Province) and prepared to march eastward. However, not long after the capital was moved, King Wen of Zhou died.

King Wen of Zhou's son, Ji Fa, succeeded to the throne, that is, King Wu of Zhou. Jiang Taigong continued to serve as a military advisor. King Wu's half-brother Ji Dan (i.e., Zhou Gong), and his half-brother Ji Zheng [shi] (i.e., Zhao Gong) are the two right-hand men of King Wu. At the same time, King Wu also had the support of several other princes. As a result, King Wu officially announced that he would send troops to attack the army. The army crossed the Yellow River at Mengjin (a Yellow River crossing south of present-day Mengxian County, Henan) and advanced northeast to Chaoge of the Shang Dynasty (northeast of present-day Qi County, Henan). Because the king of Shang had lost the hearts of the people, and the army was reluctant to give his life for him, so he fled, surrendered, and the uprising of the uprising, and Chaoge was quickly overcome. The king committed suicide, and the Shang Dynasty came to an end. In the next 800 years, it became the world of Zhou, called the Zhou Dynasty.

At the beginning of King Wu of Zhou's conquest of Chaoge, King Wu did not have a score in his heart about how to deal with the nobles, eunuchs and soldiers left over from the Shang Dynasty, and whether he could stabilize the situation, so he was a little worried. For this reason, he consulted with Jiang Taigong and others. There is such a text in the "Shuo Yuan Gui Fa" compiled by Liu Xiang of the Han Dynasty:

"King Wu Keyin, summoned the prince and asked, 'Who are the generals?' The prince said to him: 'Whoever loves his people also loves the black on the house; Those who hate others hate others hate the rest. The salty Liu is the enemy, so that there is more than enough, what is it? It was to the effect that King Wu of Zhou had defeated Yin Shang, summoned Jiang Taigong, and asked, "What should we do with their men?" He replied, "I have heard that if you like that man, you will also love the ravens in his house; If you hate that man, you will take his servants and servants with you. What do you think of killing all the hostile elements and leaving them alone? ”

The so-called "Yu Xu" in the original text refers to the lowest-ranking officials, the housekeepers of slave owners and nobles, and the like. (Yu, the meaning of the end; All; Xu Officials. )

There is a similar record in the "Great Biography of Shangshu and the Great War" compiled by Fu Sheng of the Han Dynasty: "When he died, King Wu was panicked as if the world was undecided. Summoned the prince and asked: 'What is the reason for entering Yin?' the prince said: 'The minister has heard it; He who loves his neighbor is also the black on his house; Those who do not love others, and their surplus. ’”

This account is similar to the content contained in the "Shuo Yuan". However, the word "Yu Xu" is written as "Xu Yu", and the meaning of the two is not the same. "Xu Yu" no longer belongs to the rank of Xu Shi, but is a slave or prisoner who is even lower than "Yu Xu" in addition to Xu officials. For example, the "Taishi" Jizi of the Shang Dynasty was dissatisfied with the King of Shang and pretended to be crazy because he was imprisoned and was willing to be a slave, so the "Zhuangzi" called him "Xu Yu".

In addition, "Han Shi Biography" and "Liutao Yiwen" also have records about the above-mentioned conversation between King Wu of Zhou and Jiang Taigong, and the content is basically the same. Because of this legend, the idiom "love the house and the wu" was born.

Since ancient times, there has been a superstitious custom in our country, thinking that the crow is an "ominous bird", and whoever falls on it will suffer misfortune. In the "Xiaoya" part of the "Book of Songs", one of the oldest poetry collections in China, in a poem entitled "New Year's Moon", there is "Zhan Wu stops, in whose house". It can be seen that the ancients hated crows, but few loved them. The so-called "love house and black" means that because of the love for that person, even the crows on his house are not considered ominous, and they do not feel annoying. This idiom has always been used as a metaphor for pushing love. Because you love someone deeply, and thus love his relatives, friends, etc., or other things, it is called "love for the house and the wu", or this kind of love is called "the love of the house".

The Tang Dynasty poet Du Fu wrote in "Presenting Shooting Hong Li Sizhang" (Shooting Hong, place name, in present-day Sichuan; In Li Sizhang's poem, the first two sentences are: "The Zhangren is on the house, and the people are good and the Wu is good." In the "Lianxi Poems" of Zhou Dunyi, a native of the Song Dynasty, there is: "Move the crab in the water angrily, and love the black on the house". In the poem "Jane Li Boyi" by Chen Shidao of the Song Dynasty, there is also "Shi Qing looks at the finch in front of my door, and the person looks good at the king's house." They are all allusions to the idiom "love house and wu".

The story of mourning

[Popularity: 59259]

Interpretation:

The metaphor is full of □□ call signs, wandering and displaced. Wailing: The wailing geese.

There is a poem entitled "Hong Yan" in "The Book of Songs: Xiaoya". Two of the sentences are: "The wild goose is flying, wailing and wailing." ”

It means that the wild goose cannot find a place to rest, flies without a purpose, and cries out mournfully. Describe the tragic scene of displaced refugees □□ crying out for help.

Because of these two verses, people later called the refugees who could not live in peace "mourning"; To describe the suffering of the people as very large, almost everywhere, it is said that "mourning is everywhere" or "mourning everywhere".

The word "whoop" in the original poem was often used to describe the noisy sound of crying and crying for hunger, such as "crying and waiting to be fed (crying and crying anxiously for something to eat)".

He said: "Shu wishes to return, the evening meal is meat, the walk is to be a car, the innocence is expensive, and the quiet and chastity is to be self-assured." ”

The paraphrase means to walk slowly, as if it were a car

During the Warring States Period, there was a master in the State of Qi named Yan Shu. King Qi Xuan admired his name and summoned him to the palace. Yan Shu casually walked into the palace, came to the stairs in front of the palace, and saw that King Xuan was waiting for him to visit, so he stopped and stopped walking. King Xuan saw that it was very strange, so he called out and said, "Yan Shu, come over!" Unexpectedly, Yan Shu still didn't move, and called King Xuan and said, "King, come over!" King Xuan was very unhappy when he heard this, and the ministers on the left and right saw that Yan Shu was speechless and speechless, and they all said: "The king is the monarch, you are a subject, the king can call you over, you also call the king over, how can you do it" Yan Shu said: "If I go to the king, it means that I envy his power; If the king came over, it meant that he was a corporal. Instead of making me envious of the king's power, it is better to let Corporal Dayu Lixian be better. King Qi Xuan was angry and said: "Is it the king who is noble, or the scholars who are noble" Yan Shu said without thinking: "Of course the scholars are noble, and the king is not noble!" King Xuan said: "Is there any basis for what you say" Yan Shu looked calm and said, "Of course there is." In the past, when the Qin State attacked the Qi State, the King of Qin once issued an order: Anyone who dares to cut wood within fifty steps of Gao Shiliu's tomb in the next quarter will be killed! He also issued an order: Whoever can cut off the head of the king of Qi will be named the marquis of ten thousand households, and the reward will be Ganyi, so it seems that the head of a living monarch is not even as good as the grave of a dead scholar. King Qi Xuan was speechless, his face full of displeasure. The ministers hurriedly came to relieve the siege: "Yan Shu, come here!" Yan Shu, come here! Our king has a country of a thousand times (a thousand war books), and whoever dares to disobey the king in the east, west, north and south will have what he wants, and the common people will not bow down and obey orders. You scholars are despicable!" Yan Shu refuted: "You guys are not right! In the past, when Dayu was in the past, there were as many as ten thousand kingdoms. That's why, because he respects the scholars. By the time of Shang Tang, there were as many as 3,000 princes. Today, there are only twenty-four people who are called lonely. From this point of view, attaching importance to whether a scholar is the key to gain or lose. From ancient times to the present, there is no one who has become famous in the world for not being pragmatic. Therefore, the monarch should be ashamed of not asking for advice from people often, and ashamed of not learning from those of low status. When King Xuan heard this, he felt that he was at a loss and said, "I'm bored with myself." After listening to your high arguments, I learned about the villain's behavior. I hope you will accept me as your student, and you will live with me from now on, and I promise that you will have meat to eat, and you will have a car to ride when you go out, and your wife and children will all be dressed beautifully. Yan Shu thanked him and said: "Jade, originally produced in the mountains, if it is processed by craftsmen, it will be destroyed; Although it is still precious, it has lost its original appearance. Scholars are born in poor rural areas, and if they are selected, they will enjoy profits; It's not that he can't be noble and prominent, but his external appearance and inner world will be destroyed. Therefore, I would like to hope that the king will let me go back, and eat late every day, and eat it like meat, and walk steadily and slowly, enough for a ride; Living in peace is no worse than that of the powerful. Quiet and inactive, pure self-control, and enjoy it. It is your king who ordered me to speak, and it is I Yan Shu who declares my loyalty. Yan Shu said that, bowed twice to King Xuan, and then took his leave.
