Xierchi Park

Chaohu xierchi park is located in the east of Chaohu City, Anhui Province. It is said that 5000 years ago, when the father of the nest was drinking from a cow by the pool, he criticized a generation of sage Xu you for "floating in the world, greedy for the holy name". Xu you was so ashamed that he immediately washed his ears and wiped his eyes with water from the pool, expressing his willingness to listen to the father's advice. In order to praise Xu you's virtue of correcting his mistakes when he knew his mistakes, later generations named the Fangchi "Xier Chi", and the idiom "Xier GONGTING" came into being.

It is said that Yao in ancient times wanted to give up the throne to Xu you. Xu you was a man who regarded not asking about politics as "noble". He not only refused Yao's request, but also fled into Jishan and lived in seclusion.

At that time, Yao thought that Xu you was modest and respected more, so he sent someone to invite him, saying, "if Jian does not accept the throne, he hopes to come out and be a" governor of nine states. ". Unexpectedly, after hearing the news, Xu you became more disgusted and immediately ran to Yingshui at the foot of the mountain to wash his ears with water.

Xu you's friend Chao Fu also lives in seclusion here. At this time, he happens to bring a calf to drink water for it. He asks Xu you what he is doing. Xu you told him the news, and said: "I heard such unclean words, how can I not quickly wash my innocent ears!" When the father heard this, he sneered and said, "hum, who told you to flaunt outside and make a reputation? Now you are in trouble. It's all your fault. What are you listening to! Forget it, don't sully my calf's mouth Then he took the calf and went up the stream.
