Idioms and allusions
origin
The king of Qin suffered from this problem. He begged the despicable guests of Jin Dynasty to destroy his son. The king of Wei said, "the son has been dead for ten years. Now he is the general of Wei. All the princes belong to him. They only hear about the son of Wei, but they don't hear about the king of Wei. Because of this, the Prince wanted to be king in the south. The princes were afraid of the prince's power and wanted to stand together. "The number of envoys in the Qin Dynasty was against leisure, and the puppet prince he was established as the Wei king. When the king of Wei heard of its destruction, he had to believe it, and the consequence was that he would be replaced by a young master. The young master knew that if he was to be destroyed again, he would be grateful for his illness and stay away from the court. He drank wine with his guests for a long night, and how close he was to women. He was four years old and died of wine.
translation
The king of Qin worried that the prince would further threaten the state of Qin, so he used ten thousand jin gold to bribe Wei, looking for the former disciples of Jin Bi, and asked them to go forward in front of the king of Wei. He slandered: "the prince has been in exile for ten years, now he is the general of Wei, and the generals of the vassals are under his command. The vassals only know that there is a prince of Wei, but they don't know that there is a king of Wei. Young master should also take this opportunity to decide to be king. The princes were afraid of the power of the young master, and they were planning to support him as king. "The state of Qin has repeatedly carried out Anti Japanese activities, using the Wei spies in the state of Qin, pretending to be unknowingly asking them to congratulate the young master and ask if they have become the king of Wei. When the king of Wei heard these slanders every day, he couldn't help believing them. Later, he sent someone to replace him as the general. Knowing that he was dethroned for slander again, the young master refused to go to court because he was ill. He had dinner with his guests all night, drank hard liquor, and often hung out with women. He spent four years in this way, and finally died of excessive drinking.
