surrender one 's power to another at one 's own peril
TAIA Daozhi, a Chinese idiom, Pinyin is t à I à D à och í, which means to hold TAIA's sword upside down. It means to give someone a handle, but face danger or disaster. It comes from the biography of Yanghu and zhumeiyun in the history of Han Dynasty.
The origin of Idioms
According to the biography of Yanghu and zhumeiyun in the book of Han Dynasty, "it is not the case in Qin Dynasty, but Zhang slandered him. He thought that the Han Dynasty had expelled him, and that he had overthrown tai'a and granted him the power of Chu."
Idiom usage
It means that he has to be passive to share with his subordinates, which means that he will be robbed and killed by his subordinates. In Guo Moruo's ten critiques: Han Feizi's critiques and song Qinguan's Li Xun Lun, it is said that "since the change of emperor Dezong's punishment of the northern army, the eunuch was appointed to control the Shence, Tianwei and other forces, and the TAIA was defeated, so it is no longer advisable." In reading the Analects of Confucius, Jiao Hong of Ming Dynasty said, "Duke Ding is the king of tai'a, so he wants to defend him with propriety; the three families are the ministers of Wei Da Bu, so he wants to teach him with loyalty." The second chapter of the romance of the Three Kingdoms written by Luo Guanzhong in the Ming Dynasty: "the so-called" TAIA Daozhi "is that if you give someone a handle, you will not succeed. On the contrary, there will be chaos."
