Idiom story

After conquering Xiang Yu and calming down the Central Plains, Liu Bang, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, discussed with his ministers the establishment of the capital. Because all the officials were from the east of Huashan Mountain, they said: "Luoyang was the capital of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, and Zuo was handed down for hundreds of years; Xianyang was the capital of the Qin Dynasty, and the second generation passed away, so Luoyang should be the capital." Han Gaozu hesitated. In the fifth year of emperor Gaozu of Han Dynasty, Liu Bang visited Luoyang. A man named Lou Jing asked to see the emperor. Lou Jing asked the Emperor: "Your Majesty wants to build the capital of Luoyang. Does he want to compete with the prosperity of the Zhou Dynasty?" The emperor said, "not bad." Lou Jing said, "Your Majesty's acquisition of the world is different from that of the Zhou Dynasty. The ancestor of King Wu of Zhou had accumulated virtue and done good deeds for decades. People were willing to follow him, and they won the world without much killing. His majesty started from Fengpei and unified 3000 troops. After countless battles, he swept through the Shuhan area, calmed the Sanqin, and fought against Xiang Yu in the Central Plains. Take the battle of Chenggao as an example. After 70 big wars and 40 small wars, innocent people all over the world were devastated, corpses were everywhere, and crying was heard all the time. Before those wounded people recover, you want to compete with the Western Zhou Dynasty for prosperity. In private, I think your majesty can't do that! " Finally, Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty adopted Lou Jing's suggestion, cancelled the idea of establishing Luoyang as his capital, and established Chang'an as his capital. He gave Lou Jing the surname Liu, so it was called Liu Jing in history. 和和和和和和和和和和和和. At present, it is often used as a metaphor to describe loyalty to the utmost and sacrifice at all costs!
