When Shang Zhouwang first asked craftsmen to make chopsticks for him with ivory, his uncle Ji Zi expressed his concern. Ji Zi believes that since you use rare and expensive ivory as chopsticks, the matching cups, plates and bowls will no longer be heavy objects made of clay, but will inevitably be replaced by exquisite utensils polished with rhinoceros horn and jade. Once the tableware is replaced by ivory chopsticks and jade bowls, you will definitely not eat ordinary vegetables such as soybeans, but try to enjoy the delicious food of yaks, elephants, leopards and other fetuses.

Then, while enjoying the delicious food, you will definitely not wear coarse clothes and live under a low and damp hut, but will inevitably change into sets of silks and satins and live in high-rise buildings.

Ji Zi is worried that this evolution will surely bring a tragic ending. Therefore, when Zhou Wang made ivory chopsticks, he felt an ominous fear from the beginning.

Things didn't develop as Kiko expected. Only five years later, Zhou Wang has developed to the point of luxury, debauchery and shameless. In his palace, there are all kinds of animal meat, as many as a meat forest; A copper grille specially used for barbecue has been added in the kitchen; After making wine in the back garden, the remaining distiller's grains have piled up like a hill, and the wine pool filled with wine is big enough to row. Zhou Wang's corruption not only made people miserable, but also plunged the country into chaos, which was finally eliminated by Zhou Wuwang.

Li Shimin and Wei Zhi.

Wei Zhi once asked for leave to go home to visit the grave. When he came back, he said to the emperor, "It is said that the emperor is going to visit Nanshan. Everything has been arranged and he can start. Now he's not leaving. What is the reason? " The emperor smiled and replied, "I did have such a plan at first, but I was worried that Ai Qing would blame you, so enough is enough." The emperor once got a good kite and put it on his arm to play with. When he saw Wei Zhi coming, he hid it in his arms. Wei Zhi played for a long time, and the kite finally suffocated in his arms.
