Be crowned by bathing monkeys.
Origin of idioms
"Historical Records of Xiang Yu": "People say that Chu people are crowned with monkeys, and it really is." Detailed explanation
Modern Chinese Dictionary, Fifth Edition: Mu monkeys (macaques) wear hats and pretend to be adults. Dressing up like a character is a metaphor, but it's not. Here, "bathing monkey" is directly interpreted as "macaque", and the reason is not explained.
The "monkey" in Duan Yucai's Notes on Explaining Words says: "The female monkey is the name of this beast, not the monkey. Both monkeys and macaques have language changes and a false word. " When it comes to "Yi Zhuan" here, Duan thinks that the initials of the three words "mother", "rhyme" and "mother" are the same, and the meaning is the same, but the spelling is different and the words are just wrong. And the word "stupid" goes: "Xu Shu", "Wei" and "Sui" are all called female monkeys. It's a bathing monkey, and a macaque turns a word. The "Yu" in the "Mo" department is called the female monkey. This is another language. "Look at the word" Yu ","Shuo Wen ":"Yu, a female monkey, has a head like a ghost. "Zhengzitong": "Yu is as big as a macaque, with red eyes and long tail, and there are many mountains. It is wrong to say that the article refers to the female monkey. Shuowen points out that Yu is a female monkey, Zhengzitong emphasizes that the difference between Yu and a macaque is "as big as a macaque", and points out that Shuowen is wrong to limit Yu to a female monkey. Shan Hai Jing: "There is a beast that looks like a jade ear and lurks pedestrians. It is called" Dang Dang ",and food is good for walking. "This" ying ying "is" orangutan ". Guo Pu's Note: "Yu is as big as a macaque, with red eyes and long tail." Xu Hao quoted this article in the annotation of Shuowen, and said: "This statement is like an ape, while Guo Yun is like a macaque, so it is not a monkey. "The beast that covers the human form, that is, the monkey is also like a human form, so it is called Yu, and it is also known by its common name." Xu Hao gave a clearer explanation. Yu is a general term, and all humanoid animals can be called Yu.
Look at the word "Gou" again, and "Er Ya Yi Shu" says: "Gou is Gou." Quote Erya: "Take care of your father." "Interpretation of the Text" quoted "Shuowen": Big Mother Monkey also. Shi Yun said: "Be good at catching people and looking around." "Guangya Stone Beast" also said, "Hey, macaques too." Lu Ji's "Shi Mao, Plants, Birds, Animals, Insects and Fish Sparse" said: "Monkeys and macaques are called bathing monkeys by Chu people, monkeys by the old people and apes by the long arms." So raccoons are macaques. It is also known that "bathing monkey" is the special name of the Chu people for monkeys, and there are materials to prove it: "Historical Records of Xiang Yu": "People say that the Chu people take bathing monkeys as the crown, and it really happens." Xiang Yu is a native of Chu. Some people say that Xiang Yu was crowned as a bathing monkey, contrary to the Chu people. It can be considered that bathing monkeys were originally called "macaques" by Chu people.
To sum up, so the floorboard of the beast in human form. Macaques have many names, such as horse monkey, female monkey, monkey bath and so on. "Monkey bath" is a macaque. Wang Niansun's Guangya Shuzheng: "(Rhesus monkey) turns to mother ... and then to Mu." Zhang also said in "New Dialect: Releasing Animals": "Wash the monkey, the mother monkey and the monkey, now called the horse monkey, all with one sound."

At the end of Qin Dynasty, Liu Bang and Xiang Yu rose up against Qin. Liu Bangxian attacked Xianyang and Qin Dou (now the ancient city of Weicheng in Xi 'an, Shaanxi), and then Xiang Yu also arrived. It turns out that all the generals have agreed with each other that whoever enters Xianyang first will be king in Guanzhong. Xiang Yu was therefore very unhappy. He led his troops into the city, slaughtered them, killed Wang Ziying and set fire to Qin Gong. The fire burned for months. Xiang Yu also plundered a large amount of gold and silver property, plundered a group of young women and prepared to return to the East.
At that time, Xiang Yu was advised to build his capital in Xianyang, because "there are dangers to defend and fertile land in Guanzhong area."

One is to show people's creativity, but it is reviled by many people.
A zoo in Shenyang recently dyed monkeys in various colors to attract tourists, and the local media praised its creativity. However, such "dyes" not only ruined the monkey's personality, but also stimulated the monkey's skin and disturbed the transmission of monkey's physiological information, which caused strong opposition from many environmentalists, animal protectionists and zoologists. I think I can win the creativity of tourists, but I am afraid that people are really different from people, and monkeys are not like monkeys. It is really the crown of bathing monkeys.
Second, I wanted to show that people obey the rules, but I was treated as an idiot.
A scenic spot near Chengdu recently issued the Code of Conduct for Courtesy Mountain Monkeys, especially for stubborn monkeys. The most striking thing is to punish those monkeys who like to play hooligans and harass beautiful female tourists.
The local government may be inspired by the "spirit of the rule of law", thinking that since people should obey the rules, monkeys should also have rules. However, does it violate the laws of nature and human nature to punish monkeys by fasting and flogging? Even if the monkeys in the mountains are really domesticated into monkeys in the circus, will tourists still like them? Naughty is to monkeys what precipitous is to mountains, and the "mountain monkey rule" is to people, which is the crown of bathing monkeys.
China has had the Zodiac since ancient times, but by the end of the year, many people began to play with Zodiac animals. Hundreds of tigers are thriving, thousands of bulls are fighting, and thousands of Ma Benteng are spectacular. But this spectacular "organization" by coercive means is not the respect and protection of the zodiac, but the blasphemy and destruction of the zodiac!
In this era of extremely accelerated extinction, the zodiac should have a new meaning, that is, to remind people to love animals, not just the animals in the zodiac. The dragon is gone, but we never hope that there is only one symbol left in other zodiac signs! It is life that leads to spirituality. But the protagonist in the above news pays attention to the monkey on the surface, but actually ignores the monkey's spirituality. As a result, he seems to be crowned by bathing the monkey.
Historical Records Biography of Xiang Yu: "Han Sheng advised Xiang Yu to enter the pass, and Yu said,' I am rich and don't go home, just like walking at night. "Peng Cheng is the capital of burning palace. Han Sheng said:' people say that Chu people take bathing monkeys as their crown, and it really is.' "
More than two thousand years ago, the ancients satirized human beings for putting on airs and deceiving themselves. The day after tomorrow is the Year of the Monkey, a relaxed wish: no bathing in the Year of the Monkey and no bathing in the Zodiac. [2]
Historical Records is the first biographical general history written by Sima Qian. It records the history (politics, military affairs, economy, culture, etc.). ) from the ancient legend of the Yellow Emperor era to the first year of Emperor Taishigong of the Han Dynasty for more than 3,000 years. At first, there was no title for historical records, or "Taishi Gongshu" or "Taishi Gongzhuan", which was also called "Taishi Gong" in the province. Historical Records is the general name of ancient history books. Since the Three Kingdoms period, Historical Records has gradually evolved from a general name of historical books to a specific name of "Taishi Gongshu". Historical Records, Han Shu (Ban Gu), Later Han Shu (Ye Fan, Sima Biao) and The History of the Three Kingdoms (Chen Shou) are collectively called "the first four histories". Liu Xiang and others think that this book is "good in order and reason, argumentative but not flashy, qualitative but not vulgar". It is also known as the "double gem of history" with the "A Mirror of Mutual Learning" compiled by Sima Guang in the Song Dynasty.
Historical Records is a biography of China. It's called a history of faith. It was written in 18 by Sima Qian in the period of Emperor Wu of the Western Han Dynasty. The book * * * 130 volume, about 526,500 words, including 10 table 8 books 12 biographies of 30 subjects and 70 biographies, records 3,000 in ancient China from the era of the Yellow Emperor (about 3000 BC) to the first year of Emperor Wudi's Yuan Shou (BC 122 BC). It is all-encompassing, comprehensive and clear. It recorded the development of ancient politics, economy, military affairs and culture in detail. Historical Records is a great masterpiece, which reflects the political, economic and cultural development process of China for three thousand years before the Han Dynasty. Sima Qian inherited and developed the advantages of various historical books before the Han Dynasty and established a brand-new system. Sima Qian's "Historical Records" is good at highlighting the personality characteristics of characters, and it is expressed through his words and deeds. The language used is vivid and simple. Sima Qian's efforts in oral English are also worthy of attention.
Historical Records is the first biographical history book in history, which is different from the chronological style or the country style divided by region used in previous history books, but a style that reflects historical content with biography as the center. From then on, from Han Shu written by Ban Gu in the Eastern Han Dynasty to the Draft of the Qing Dynasty in the early years of the Republic of China, the history revised in the past two thousand years, although individual names have been changed, has followed the biographies and biographies of Historical Records without exception, becoming a tradition. At the same time, Historical Records is regarded as an excellent literary work, which occupies an important position in the history of literature and has high literary value. It was praised by Lu Xun as "the historian's swan song, and Li Sao has no rhyme." Lu Xun's evaluation of the historical records, "Historians sing a swan song, Li Sao has no rhyme", is divided into five parts: biography, table, book, family and biography. It takes emperors and other political center figures in history as the main line of compiling history books, and the division of labor in various styles is clear. The Chronicle records the rise and fall of emperors and major historical events. "Table" is the memorabilia of each historical period presented in tabular form; Book is a special history about astronomy, calendar, water conservancy, economy and culture. "aristocratic family" is the activity and deeds of princes and nobles in past dynasties; Biographies are biographies of influential people from all walks of life, and a few chapters record the history of ethnic minorities. Among them, "biography", "family" and "biography" account for most of the book's length, and all of them record history with writing characters as the center. As a result, Sima Qian created a new style of history books-"Biography".
10 Author's brief introduction Sima Qian (BC145-about 90 BC) was born in xia yang (now Hancheng, Shaanxi) and once mentioned Longmen (now Hejin, Shanxi). Historians, writers and thinkers in the Western Han Dynasty learned Chunqiu from Dong Zhongshu and Shangshu from Kong Anguo in their early years. There are eight pieces of Sima Qian's Fu recorded in Han Shu Yi Wen Zhi. There is a volume of Sima Qian's book collection in Economic Annals of Sui Shu. His father, Sima Tan, is a great scholar and has learned a lot. He used to be a scholar in Tang Dou, and he is easy to learn from others and Huang Zi. In his early years, Sima Qian lived a poor life in his hometown. At the age of 65,438+00, I began to read ancient books, studied very hard, and always pondered over problems until I understood them. At the age of 20, Sima Qian set out from Chang 'an and traveled around the world. Later, he returned to Chang 'an and became a doctor. He made several voyages with Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and visited many places. At the age of 35, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty sent him to Yunnan, Sichuan and Guizhou. He learned about the customs of some ethnic minorities there. After the death of his father Sima Tan, in the third year of Yuanfeng (BC 108), Sima Qian succeeded to the throne as Taishiling. In the first year of Tai Chu (BC 104), he and astronomer Tang Dou and others produced taichu calendar.
In the same year, I began to compile historical records. In the second year of Tian Han (99 BC), Li Ling attacked the Xiongnu, defeated and surrendered, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was furious. Sima Qian defended Li Ling and offended Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. He was arrested and sentenced to imprisonment. "People are inherently mortal, or they are heavier than Mount Tai or lighter than a feather, so use them differently." (Bao Ren An Shu) In order to fulfill his father's last wish, he completed the historical records and left them to future generations, enduring corruption with humiliation. In 96 BC (the first year of Taishi), he was pardoned and released from prison, issued a written order and mastered the confidential documents of the emperor. He wrote a book in anger, and finally completed the writing and revision of the whole book at the age of 55.
