A full glass of wine(浮一大白)
During the Warring States Period in China,
the king of the Wei Kingdom held a grand banquet.
The banquet was very lively and everyone
was very happy.
Halfway through the banquet, the king made
a suggestion.
He said
This banquet is really fun.
From now on, let's play a game.
If someone fouls the rules, that person
will be punished.
The punishment is to drink a full glass of
wine.
The king appointed a minister named (Gong
Cheng Bu Ren) to be the referee.
The game begins. More and more people were
punished for fouling.
The atmosphere of the banquet became more
and more enthusiastic.
Suddenly, in the latest round of the game,
the king fouled.
(Gong Cheng Bu Ren) poured a full glass of
wine to the king.
The king pretended not to see it.
(Gong Cheng Bu Ren) Said to the king.
You have to accept punishment and finish
drinking this glass of wine.
The guard next to the king said at this
time.
You are too rude, you can't force the king
to drink.
(Gong Cheng Bu Ren) answered.
This rule was laid down by the king, and
everyone at the scene agreed and complied with it.
How can the king himself not accept
punishment now?
When the king heard these words, he was
silent.
One minute later.
He took the full glass of wine and said to
everyone.
(Gong Cheng Bu Ren) is right, I should
accept punishment.
After the king finished drinking this glass
of wine, he said to (Gong Cheng Bu Ren).
I respect you very much. I am very grateful
for your reminder.
This idiom means to drink a full glass of
wine.
Dear friend, what inspiration or thoughts did you have after hearing this story.
If you are the king with absolute power,
can you admit your mistakes in public? If you are (Gong Cheng Bu Ren), do you
have the courage to express your thoughts?
I hope this story will give you some new
gains.
浮一大白(A full glass of wine)
中國的戰國時代，魏王國的國王舉開一場盛大的宴會。
宴會非常的熱鬧，所有的人都很開心。
宴會進行到一半的時候，國王提了一個建議。
他說
這一場宴會實在太好玩了。
從現在開始，我們來玩一個遊戲。
若是有人犯規，這個人就要被處罰。
這個處罰就是喝滿滿的一杯酒。
國王指定了一個名字叫做(公乘不仁)的大臣當裁判。
遊戲開始了。隨著犯規被處罰的人愈來愈多。
宴會的氣氛愈來愈熱烈。
突然，在最新一輪遊戲中，國王犯規了。
(公乘不仁)倒了滿滿的一杯酒拿給國王。
國王假裝沒看見。
(公乘不仁)對國王說。
你要接受處罰，喝完這一杯酒。
國王旁邊的侍衛此時說。
你太失禮了，你不能強迫國王喝酒。
(公乘不仁)回答。
這個規矩是國王訂下的，現場所有的人也都同意，也都遵守了。
現在國王自已怎麼可以不接受處罰呢。
國王聽到這些話後，他沉默了。
過一分鐘。
他拿起了這一杯倒得滿滿的酒對所有的人說。
(公乘不仁)是對的，我應該接受處罰。
國王喝完這杯酒後他對(公乘不仁)說。
我很敬重你。我很謝謝你的提醒。
這句成語的意思是喝一杯滿滿的酒。
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。
若你是這一位擁有絕對的權力的國王，你做得到當眾認錯嗎?若你是(公乘不仁)，你有勇氣表達自己的想法嗎?
我期待這故事能讓你產生一些新的收穫。
