If the Wei army wiped out the Zhongshan Kingdom, it would be difficult for them to retain the land of the Zhongshan Kingdom because of our Zhao State in the middle. Zhao Li saw that Zhao Liehou was still hesitating, so he further said: What else is the king hesitating about? In the end, it is our Zhao State that obtains Zhongshan State and enjoys its success, so we must agree to borrow the road, which is beneficial to us. Zhao Li saw the joy on King Zhao's face, so he hurriedly added: A promise is a promise, but don't promise happily, if Wei Guo senses our intentions, he will cancel the plan to attack Zhongshan State.

【Idiom Story】:

In his later years, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was in poor health, and people began to become mediocre. He favored the traitor Jiang Chong. Jiang Chong took advantage of Emperor Wu's suspicion that someone was plotting to kill him, saying that Emperor Wu's illness was the result of the secret curse of those officials and people who hated him burying wood in the ground. So, Emperor Wu sent Jiang Chong to investigate the matter. Jiang Chong was ruthless, and took the opportunity to frame the people who were usually against him, and killed them all one by one, killing tens of thousands of people before and after. At that time, the crown prince Liu Ju and Jiang Chong were also opponents. As a result, Jiang Chongxiang falsely accused Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, who was recuperating in Ganquan Palace, that there were also a large number of wooden people buried in the palace, and wanted to put the prince to death. The prince couldn't bear it anymore and sent troops to kill Jiang Chong. Jiang Chong's comrades hurriedly went to report to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and deceived Emperor Wu that the crown prince had rebelled. Emperor Wu believed it to be true, so he sent Prime Minister Liu Quyan to lead troops to arrest the prince. The crown prince was forced to lead his army to resist, and the two sides fought fiercely for several days, and Liu was defeated and fled, and was later killed in Huxian County. When Liu Ju sent troops to resist the prime minister's troops, he used the name of "the emperor is seriously ill and the traitors are in rebellion", and he came to purge the traitors, and he personally went to the camp of Ren An, the envoy of the Northern Army, who was responsible for guarding the capital at that time, and gave him a military talisman and asked him to send troops to support him. Ren Anbai received the military talisman, but he did not send troops, and he closed the village and did not come out. This is because he is not sure who is right and who is wrong on both sides of the war. Later, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty returned to Beijing with illness, and after he learned about the situation, he at first thought that Ren An was just pretending to accept the military talisman and did not attach himself to the crown prince, so he did not pursue him. There was a petty officer in Ren An's army who was in charge of money and food, and he had been whipped by Ren An before. Holding a grudge, he reported Ren An to Emperor Wu, saying that Ren An had promised the prince to send troops and obeyed the prince's orders, so Ren An was a supporter of the prince. Emperor Wu read the denunciation letter and said, "Ren An is a very old minister!" He is a treacherous man, and when he sees the war happening, he steps on two boats, sits back and watches the success or failure, and if he is ready to win, he will take refuge in that side, and he will not be allowed to leave such a person with two hearts!" So, Emperor Wu ordered Ren An to be arrested and killed.

【Idiom Story】:

After the death of Emperor Liu Yi of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Sun Cheng, the Zhongchang servant (eunuch name), took the opportunity to contact 18 eunuchs and welcomed Liu Bao, the king of Jiyin, as the emperor, which was Emperor Shun of Han.

When Emperor Shun of Han was 18 years old, he held the examination in Beijing, and Li Gu, a native of Nanzheng, ranked first in the examination and was named "Yilang" by Emperor Shun of Han.

Li Gu was an upright person, vicious as hateful, and dared to speak out, he was not accustomed to the ugly behavior of the eunuchs who seized power and bent the law for bribes, and wrote to Emperor Shun of the Han Dynasty many times. Because Li Gu was well-founded and supported by Empress Liang, more than a hundred eunuchs were dismissed.

Sun Cheng and other eunuchs hated Li Gu to the core, and they wanted to die quickly. So, with the support of Emperor Shun's brother-in-law and general Liang Ji, they jointly complained to Emperor Shun of Han, saying that Li Gu rejected the emperor's cronies and ministers, so that these courtiers could not serve the emperor wholeheartedly, and also said that Li Gu was usually arrogant, relied on power, and acted as a blessing, and should be killed.

When Emperor Shun of Han found out, he consulted Empress Liang, but fortunately, Empress Li Gu trusted him very much, so that he was saved from disaster.

【Idiom Story】:

Cao Bao, whose name is Shutong, was born in Xue County, Lu (now southeast of Sheng County, Shandong), and his father specialized in the study of the periodic etiquette system, and Cao Bao followed his father to study etiquette and other knowledge when he was a teenager. He admired his uncle and grandson Tong's work in formulating etiquette for Han Gaozu, and studied hard day and night, often forgetting where he was. Cao Bao was filial piety at the beginning, and was soon appointed to the order of Ren Tu (now south of Fei County, Henan). During his tenure, he managed the county government with etiquette and influenced folk customs with kindness, and he governed very well. One year, five thieves committed crimes in a trapped county and were captured by the officials. Taishou Ma Yan hated the theft industry very much, suggesting that Cao Bao immediately kill the five thieves. Cao Bao said: "The crime of a thief is not death, if you obey the instructions of your superiors unprincipledly and kill people who should not be killed, there is a code of conduct that made me." I'd rather offend my boss than compromise with power. Later, Cao Bao was demoted to Gong Cao because of this incident. At that time, Emperor Zhang of the Han Dynasty was in power, and he believed that the etiquette system of the imperial court was very incomplete and should be reformulated to make it perfect, so he ordered hundreds of officials to study it in detail. Cao Bao was a doctor in the court at that time, and he was in the book of Emperor Zhang. Present their views and express their willingness to take charge of this work. The emperor admired Cao Bao's views and promoted him to the rank of servant, often acting as an advisor to the emperor. Once, the emperor asked Xuanwu Sima Bangu about the reform of etiquette, and Ban Gu said: "There are many scholars in the capital, and they have some research on etiquette, so you might as well find more people to discuss." Emperor Zhang said: "The folk proverb says: 'Build a house on the side of the avenue, you can't build it in three years' (as a house on the side of the road, three years will not be completed). There are many people with different opinions, and nothing can be done. Back then, Emperor Yao formulated rules and asked Kui to do it alone. "The emperor knew that Cao Bao was very good at studying the etiquette of the previous dynasties, so he issued an edict and ordered Cao Bao to preside over this work. After accepting the assignment, Cao Bao wrote a series of articles on weddings, funerals, and marriages from the emperor to the common people, totaling 150 articles, most of which referred to the previous generation system. After the book was written, hundreds of officials discussed it, and Emperor Zhang ordered to stop the discussion. This story reminds future generations that they must be decisive in their work and be good at choosing when listening to opinions, otherwise they will not be able to accomplish anything. Cao Lao was not only an outstanding scholar, but also a very competent magistrate, worthy of admiration. 166 Reading Network
