The origin of Idioms
In Shuoyuan jundao written by Liu Xiang of the Han Dynasty, it is said that "those who are in a position of honor must admonish Shunde with respect. They must open the door of no secret. They must squat in peace and take advantage of it. Those who admonish should not be shocked or awed. They should not exaggerate their words and use their words extensively. This is a considerable choice."
