Not worth mentioning (不足掛齒)

 

The Qin Dynasty was the first centralized dynasty in Chinese history.

The Qin Dynasty existed from 221 BC to 207 BC.

 

Although it only lasted 15 years, the Qin Dynasty had a profound impact on later generations in many aspects, such as culture, economy, and politics.

 

The name of the second king of the Qin Dynasty was (Hu Hai).

His story is recorded in the history books.

 

In 210 BC, Qin Shi Huang died, and in 209 BC, in this place in Shandong Province, a group of people assembled to resist the Qin Dynasty.

 

(Hu Hai) After hearing this, many scholars were called together.

he asked these scholars.

Recently there was a riot in Shandong Province, why do you think it happened and how should we deal with it?

 

A scholar answered.

I think these people are dissatisfied with the current political situation, they don't like the way you are leading, and we should send the army to quell this riot as soon as possible.

 

Many scholars agree with this view.

 

After hearing this answer, an unhappy expression appeared on his face.

 

At this time, another scholar said.

My opinion is different from theirs.

I think you are a wonderful king, you enact very strict laws, and all the people love your leadership.

 

The riot will soon be quelled by the local government in Shandong province

The problem is not serious. We don't have to take it to heart.

 

He had a happy expression on his face when he heard these words.

He said,

You are right, I think so too. You're right in your judgment, so I'm going to give you a lot of rewards.

 

I'm the best king and I don't need to adjust my leadership.

 

But contrary to what he knew, the uprising continued to expand, with more and more people from all over China rallying against the Qin Dynasty.

Two years later, Hu Hai committed suicide. The Qin Dynasty fell in 207 BC.

 

This idiom is used to describe a person or a thing that is not worth mentioning.

不足掛齒(Not worth mentioning)

 

秦王朝是中國歷史上的第一個中央集權的王朝。

秦王朝的存在時間為西元前221-西元前207年。

 

雖然只有短短的15年,但是秦王朝在文化,經濟,政治等許多方面,都對後世產生深遠的影響。

 

秦王朝的第二任國王的名字叫做(胡亥)

歷史書上記載了一個他的故事。

 

西元前210年,秦始皇逝世,西元前209年,在山東省這個地方,有一群人集結反抗秦王朝。

 

(胡亥)聽到這件事後,召集了許多的學者。

他問這些學者。

最近有山東省發生了一場暴動,你們認為為何會發生這件事,我們應該怎樣應對。

 

有一個學者回答。

我認為這些民眾對現在的政治情況感到不滿,他們不喜歡你的領導方式,我們應該要趕快派出軍隊去平定這場暴動。

 

許多學者都表示贊同這個看法。

 

聽到這個回答後,他的臉上露出不開心的表情。

 

這時候有另一個學者就說。

我的看法與他們不同。

我認為你是一個很棒的國王,你頒布非常嚴格的法律,所有的民眾很喜歡你的領導。

 

這場暴動很快就會被山東省的地方政府平定

這個問題並不嚴重。我們不用放在心上。

 

他聽了這些話臉上露出開心的表情。

他說,

你說的沒錯,我也是這樣認為。你的判斷很正確,所以我要給你很多的獎勵。

 

我是一個最棒的國王,我並不需要調整我的領導方式。

 

但與他所認知的相反,這場暴動不斷的擴大,中國各地愈來愈多人集結並反抗秦王朝。

兩年之後,胡亥自殺。秦王朝於西元前207年滅亡。

 

這句成語被用來形容一個人或一件事情不值得一提。

 

 

親愛的朋友,你聽完這個故事有怎樣的感受或有怎樣的想法呢。

你聽到與你的想法不同的觀點時,你會接受還是否定呢?你遇見問題時,你會先檢討自己是否有犯錯嗎?

我希望這故事能讓你產生一些新的收穫。
