Idioms and allusions

In the later period of the Western Zhou Dynasty, the aristocracy of the slave owners became more and more decadent. They searched for money, launched wars and oppressed the people and slaves. After King li of Zhou ascended the throne, he exploited and oppressed the people and slaves more seriously. He is greedy for money and profits, monopolizing the mountains and rivers, forbidding the people to hunt, cut firewood and fish, and sending people to watch their words and deeds; he will kill whoever talks about him. The people couldn't bear it, and people everywhere revolted. The rule of the Zhou Dynasty became more and more unstable. seeing that the Zhou Dynasty was on the verge of collapse, the ministers concerned about the country were very sad. Fan Bo, a loyal old minister, tried his best to persuade King li of Zhou to change his tyrannical politics, cultivate his virtue and save the country. But king li of Zhou didn't listen, and some powerful officials also laughed at Fan Bo, saying that he was fatuous, incompetent and ignorant of current affairs. Fanbo was very angry and wrote a long poem to express his anxiety. It's a long poem, and one of the verses goes like this: "heaven is trying to be arrogant. Don't be so blind and happy. I'm sincere, but the boys are proud. It's not the old man's words that I admonish. You make fun of it. Your arrogance is so blazing that you are too ill to be saved with medicine. " The content of this poem is to persuade King li of Zhou and those powerful officials not to treat hardship as a child's play and try to prevent it before it comes. If worries accumulate, they will be as incurable as serious illness. As expected, there was a riot in 842 BC. Civilians and slaves took up arms and rushed into the palace. King li of Zhou fled in a hurry. From then on, the Western Zhou Dynasty declined and fell apart. this word has been included in the instructions of Beijing high school entrance examination in 2010.
