Idiom explanation

It refers to the misunderstanding of the original meaning in the interpretation of the article, but sometimes it may also express a valuable point of view, so it is not all derogatory.

The origin of Idioms

Ying people have a legacy: Yan Xiang's national book, ye Shu, and the fire is unknown, because the person holding the candle said, "hold the candle." The book holds the candle. Holding a candle is not the meaning of a book. Yan Xiang accepted the book and said, "if you hold a candle, you will be wise. If you hold a candle, you will be wise." Yan Xiang Bai Wang, Wang Da said that the state is governed by law. It is not the intention of the book to cure. Most scholars in today's world are like this. ——Notes to the upper left of Wai Chu Shuo by Han Feizi (w è I): give, send. A man in Yingdu, the capital of Chu, wrote a letter to the Prime Minister of Yan at night. Because the light was not bright enough, he said to the person holding the candle, "hold up the candle." As he spoke, he wrote "holding the candle" on the letter. Holding a candle is not the intention of a letter. When the Prime Minister of Yan got the letter, he read it and said happily, "holding a candle means advocating light; advocating light means recommending talents and appointing them." The Prime Minister of Yan told the king that the king was very happy and the country was well governed. Governance means to be governed, but it is not a letter. Most of the current scholars are people like this.

Idiom usage

In conjunction with; as an object. It doesn't have to be derogatory. Moral: when the Prime Minister of Yan read the letter, he looked up to the literal meaning and misunderstood the meaning of "holding the candle", but the state of Yan was greatly ruled. The author satirizes that the scholars at that time put forward all kinds of reasonable opinions on the reform of Tuogu, but they are quite different from the original historical facts.

Therefore, it is inevitable to hold on to the idea of "high". (notes of Yuewei thatched cottage - luanyang summer record 4) analysis: even Shao Yong, a famous mathematician, only speculates about the calendar based on odd, even numbers and square circles, not on the laws of celestial bodies. Therefore, the higher his argument is, the more far fetched he is. (this sentence tends to be derogatory)
