The origin of Idioms

In the preface to Li He's poems written by Du Mu of Tang Dynasty, it is said that "it is not brave enough to have a flying horse, but it is not ancient enough to have a tile coffin and a seal tripod."

Idiom usage

It is used as predicate and attributive; it is used as metaphor to describe vigorous momentum and quick action. Example: Song huzai's first episode of yuyinconghua in Tiaoxi: Wei Suzhou: "how can the reeds and reeds be lush, without the strength of Sanxiang and Qize, the snow covered smoke boats, and the windless masts and horses?" Qian Qianyi's preface to the complete works of Du Chenwu: "the military documents are written in the form of Yu Xi, the sweat is simple and wrong, the wind is strong and the horse is flying, and the ink is flying."
