【Story】

During the Tang Dynasty, there was a poet named Chang Jian, and another poet named Zhao Yi. Chang Jian admired Zhao Wei's talent very much, he always wanted to get Zhao Wei's poems, but there was no way. Later, he really came up with a way to ask for poetry. Chang Jianda heard that Zhao Yi was going to Lingyan Temple to play, so he rushed to the temple first, inscribed two sentences on the wall, and then hid aside. On this day, Zhao Yi really came to Lingyan Temple to worship the Buddha and play. When he turned to a wall, he found two lines of poetry inscribed on it. He was momentary and thought, the poem is well written, why only two sentences were written, so he picked up the pen and added two more sentences after Chang Jian's poem, which became a complete seven-character quatrain. After Zhao Yi left, Chang Jian rushed over to watch, pondering word by word, thinking that the two sentences he had written were indeed better than himself, so he copied them. After others read it, they all said that Chang Jian used the method of "throwing bricks and attracting jade" in order to get Zhao Yi's poems. This is where the idiom "throwing bricks and leading jade" comes from, which is a metaphor for using inferior works or superficial opinions to lead others to good works or high opinions. Later, people used the word of self-humility.

It rode a whirlwind and could fly over 90,000 miles in the air at once. Some of the birds asked him incomprehensibly, "Why did you fly to the edge of the sky 90,000 miles away?"

Once, Li Shimin, Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, told a story to his ministers: "There was a merchant in the Western Regions who got a very rare pearl by chance. Because the pearl was so valuable, the merchant was always worried that someone might steal it, so he tried his best to hide it in a more secret place. However, no matter how many places he changed, he didn't feel safe enough. One day, he finally thought of what he thought was the best way to do it, and he cut open his stomach and hid the pearl in his stomach. Of course, the merchant died in the end. ”

After Tang Taizong finished telling the story, he asked the ministers: "Do you say that there are really such people in the world?" ”

Some of the ministers said yes, some said no.

Tang Taizong went on to say: "The behavior of businessmen is indeed absurd, but some people lose their lives for corruption; Some emperors ruined the future of their country in pursuit of pleasure. Aren't they just as stupid as the businessman? ”

Chun Yudi thought of everything about Nan Ke in his dream, and felt that the world was very impermanent, and the so-called wealth and fame could disappear easily, so he finally returned to the hidden Daomen.

Unexpectedly, the swan flapped its wings and flew away, leaving only a goose feather. There was no way to catch him, so he had to take this goose feather to meet the emperor. He was afraid that the emperor would punish him, so he made up a poem to the effect that it was like this: "I came to pay tribute to you, and I passed through thousands of rivers and mountains, but when I arrived at Panyang Lake, the swan flew away; I am grief-stricken, and today I will restore the Son of Heaven, please spare Burman Bogao.

A worrying story

[Popularity:20448]

Once upon a time in the country of Qi, there was a very timid and a somewhat neurotic person, who often thought of some strange questions, which made people feel inexplicable. One day, after dinner, he took a large fan, sat down in front of the door, and said to himself, "What if one day the sky falls?" Isn't it too unjust for us to have no way to escape and be crushed to death? From then on, he worried and troubled about this problem almost every day, and his friends were very worried about him when they saw him in a trance all day long, and his face was haggard, but when everyone knew the reason, they all ran to persuade him: "Brother! Why bother yourself about this? How could the sky fall? I'm saying that even if it really collapses, it's not something that can be solved by worrying about it alone, so let's open it! However, no matter what people said, he did not believe it, and he still often worried about this unnecessary problem. Later people based on the above story and extended it into the idiom "people are worried about the sky", and its main meaning is to awaken people not to worry about some unrealistic things. It has much the same meaning as "mediocrity".
