said to the leader of the Kingdom of Chu.
You have too many people to attend the
wedding this time, and our hotel in the city cannot accommodate you all.
So I will arrange for you to live in a tent
outside the city.
This wedding, we will also be held outside
the city tomorrow.
The leader of Chu Kingdom responded angrily
to this official Zheng Kingdom said.
You are so rude, you cannot treat us like
this.
The official Zheng Kingdom answered.
We are very welcome to the VIPs who come to
the wedding, but we must beware of the other people who pretend to attend the
wedding.
We sincerely want to strengthen our
relationship.
But if some people want to take this
opportunity to harm my kingdom, I absolutely will not allow this to happen.
The leader of Chu Kingdom knew that his
conspiracy had been detected, so he gave up the plan to secretly attack.
This idiom is used to describe some people
who are good-natured but hide evil plans in their hearts.

包藏禍心 (Some soldiers disguised as ordinary people)
在中國的春秋時代。
鄭王國與楚王國兩個王國、為了加強彼此的關係。
兩個王國的貴族便決定通婚。
楚王國派出許多的人員。來到鄭王國參加這場婚禮。
有一位鄭國官員觀察到一個很奇怪的事情。
有很多偽裝成普通人的軍人，他們躲藏在楚王國來參加婚禮的貴賓中。
於是這一位鄭王國的官員、便對楚王國的領隊說。
你們這一次來參加婚禮的人太多，我們城內的旅館容納不下你們全部。
所以我會安排你們在住在城外的帳棚內。
這場婚禮、我們明天也會在城外舉辦。
楚國的領隊很生氣地回答這一鄭國官員說。
你們太失禮了，你不能這樣對待我們。
這一位鄭國的官員便回答。
這些來參加婚禮的貴賓我們非常歡迎，但是我們必須提防另外那一些假裝來參加婚禮的人們。
我們很誠心地想要加強彼此的關係。
但若是有些人想要藉這個機會危害我的王國，我絕對不允許這件事情的發生。
楚王國領隊知道自己的陰謀已經被察覺了，他就放棄了原定偷偷攻擊的計劃。
這個成語用來形容有些人外表和善，但內心卻隱藏著邪惡的計謀。
親愛的朋友，你聽完這個故事有怎樣的啟發或有怎樣的想法呢。
你是否可以從一些小地方去觀察別人的意圖呢?你在與別人往來時，可以像這位鄭王國的官員一樣的保持清醒的頭腦嗎。
希望這故事能讓你產生一點新的收穫。
