The origin of Idioms

According to the biography of Yu Qing, the ruler of Pingyuan in historical records, the so-called "people who make things according to their own people" have a lot to do How can I help you! (yuan · Li Shouqing's wuyuanchuxiao, the fourth fold) Chapter 99 of the chronicles of the states of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty: "when Mao Sui finished his blood, he held the plate with his left hand and called 19 people with his right hand, saying:" the public should be in the hall together! The so-called "doing things according to people" such as the public is also true. "

Idioms and allusions

"Doing things according to people" is Mao Sui's words of ridicule, and "three inch tongue" is his words of praise. When Pingyuan Jun and his party arrived at the state of Chu, he immediately asked the king of Chu to send reinforcements to join forces with Zhao to fight against Qin. But the king of Chu was afraid of the state of Qin and refused to answer. Two people from early in the morning negotiations to noon, also did not talk about the results. Mao Sui and twenty others were anxiously waiting in front of the palace. The 19 people joked to Mao Sui and said, "Mr. Mao, go to the temple to expose the cone point." Without saying a word, Mao Sui ascended the steps with his sword and calmly went to the palace. He said to Pingyuan Jun, "the interests of Zhao Chu's united resistance to Qin can be explained in two sentences. Why can't he decide after so long?" The king of Chu asked Ping Yuanjun, "who is this man?" Mr. Pingyuan said, "he is my family minister and my attendant." Then the king of Chu turned to Mao Sui and said, "don't you come down to me soon! I'm talking to your monarch. What are you Mao then pressed his sword forward and said to the king of Chu, "do you scold people at will because Chu is a big country? You should know that within these ten steps, there is no great nation, and your life is in my hands. What are you shouting about The king of Chu was silent. Then Mao Sui said, "I heard that Shang Tang gained the world by 70 Li, and King Wen of Zhou subdued the princes by 100 li. Did he have many soldiers? It's just that he can give full play to his advantages and inspire his power. At present, Chu has a territory of 5000 Li and millions of soldiers, which is the capital of dominating the world. The state of Chu is so powerful that no country in the world can confront it. Bai Qi, just a little baby, brought tens of thousands of soldiers to fight with the state of Chu. In the first war, he took away Yan, Ying and other places. In the second war, he burned the tomb of the first king of Chu in Yiling. In the third war, he captured your ancestors. This is the hatred of hundreds of generations. Even the state of Zhao is ashamed, but the king doesn't know the good or bad! The military alliance is for Chu, not for Zhao. What are you shouting at in front of my master? " The king of Chu was afraid and ashamed. He repeatedly claimed that he was right and said, "it's true that, as Mr. Chu said, he is willing to join the whole country in the alliance." Then Mao Sui forced him to ask, "is it settled to unite against Qin?" The king of Chu said, "it's settled." Mao then called to the king of Chu and said, "get the blood of the chicken, dog and horse!" When the blood came, Mao then knelt down to the king of Chu with a copper plate and said, "please dip your finger in the blood and put it on your lips first. This is the ceremony of alliance. Then my master and finally me." After smearing the blood, Mao Sui held the blood plate in his left hand and summoned 19 people outside the hall with his right hand, saying, "Hello! Then you smear blood under the hall. You masters are so mediocre and incompetent, just as they say you depend on others to do things! " In this way, this diplomatic event finally achieved success by relying on Mao Sui's eloquence. For this reason, Pingyuan praised Mao Sui, and the other 19 people were more convinced of him. After making the alliance, he returned to Handan and said with emotion, "I dare not identify talents any more! When Mr. Mao came to the state of Chu once, the reputation of the state of Zhao increased a hundred times. Mr. Mao's three inch tongue is stronger than a million soldiers! " Later, Mao Sui was regarded as a first-class disciple. After that, people call it "doing things according to people" that they have no ability but rely on others' strength. "Three inch tongue" is used to describe people's eloquence and debate.
