Idioms and allusions

Guo Ziyi and Li Guangbi were afraid of being yashun's generals, but they didn't talk to each other. Later, Ziyi took Sishun as his general. Guangbi was afraid of being killed. He knelt down and asked, "I'm willing to die, but I beg for my wife." Ziyi went down to the hall and held his hand, saying: "today, the country is in chaos and the Lord is in disgrace. It's impossible to decide whether it's public or not. How dare a servant be angry with himself?" Because of his tears, he encouraged him to be loyal and righteous, and recommended him as a governor, so he broke the thief without suspicion. At first, when Guo Ziyi and Li Guangbi were both generals of an Sishun, they didn't get along well, and they didn't talk even when they sat together. Later, after Ziyi became a general instead of Sishun, Lao bi was afraid to be killed, so he knelt down and pleaded guilty and said, "I'm willing to die, just hope (you) let go of my wife and son." Ziyi came down from the hall, took his hand and said, "now that the country is in turmoil and the master is insulted, it's not that you can't calm down. How can Ziyi have personal grievances?" With tears in his eyes, he encouraged Li Guangbi with loyalty and righteousness, and immediately recommended him as a Jiedu envoy. They attacked the bandits together without any suspicion.
