Idioms and allusions

Song Yu was an independent civil servant of Chu state in the late Warring States period, who never echoed other people's opinions. When the king of Chu heard something bad about him, he asked Song Yu, "are you doing something wrong? Why are so many people dissatisfied with you? " Song Yu replied, "let me say something first! There is a singer singing in the capital. The two most popular folk songs of Chu state, Xiali and Ba Ren, were sung at the beginning. At this time, thousands of onlookers followed suit. Then he began to sing the more profound "Yang a Xie Lu", followed by only a few hundred people. When he began to sing the elegant song "snow in spring", only a few dozen people followed him. At last, he sang the most advanced song with five tones and six rhythms. There are only a few people who can sing along. It can be seen that the more profound the song is, the fewer people can sing along with it Then Song Yu said, "it's the same between literati. Of course, ordinary people will not understand the lofty aspirations and noble behaviors of those outstanding figures. This is exactly what happened to me! " After hearing Song Yu's words, the king of Chu felt that they were very reasonable. There was no further questioning.

The Idioms "snow in spring" and "xialiba people" come from this. "White snow in spring" was later used to represent elegant literary works, while "xialiba people" represented easy to understand literary works.
