Idioms and allusions

During the Warring States period, South Korean Minister Yan Sui had a grudge with his Prime Minister Han GUI. He went to the state of Qi to find Nie Zheng, a dog butcher, to assassinate Han GUI. After Nie Zheng's mother died, in order to repay Yan Sui's kindness, he broke into the heavily guarded Han GUI's house with his sword and assassinated him. Then he disfigured himself and committed suicide. It's said that there was a white Changhong passing through the sun at that time. In 227 BC, Jing Ke took Yan Dukang map and fan Yuqi to the state of Qin to assassinate King Ying Zheng. Before leaving, many people saw Jing Ke off at Yishui, and the scene was very solemn and stirring. "The wind is rustling, the water is cold, and the strong man will never return when he is gone", this is a poem sung by Jing Ke when he said goodbye. After Jing Ke came to the state of Qin, the king of Qin summoned him in Xianyang palace. When Jing Ke presented the map of Yan Du Kang, he was killed because he failed to stab the king of Qin. According to the records of the historian, "in the past, the meaning of Jing Ke and YAN Dan was Bai Hong Guan RI.".
