(Zhi Buyi) has no brother, (Zhi Buyi) was falsely accused of having an affair with his brother's wife(無兄盜嫂).
(Zhi Buyi) has no brother, (Zhi Buyi) was
falsely accused of having an affair with his brother's wife(無兄盜嫂).
There was a famous official in China's
Western Han Dynasty, his name was (Zhi Buyi), and a story about him is recorded
in history books.
His favourite book is the Tao Te Ching,
written by Laozi. He has a deep understanding and experience of this book, and
he also applies these insights from reading it in his daily life.
He doesn't like to show off himself and
doesn't seek fame.
He does not boast about his achievements in
his job like other civil servants.
He had a very modest personality, and many
people at that time praised him as a man of very noble character.
As he worked longer in the central
government, he slowly rose through the ranks.
He later became a senior official within
the central government of the Han dynasty.
Although he kept a low profile, as he rose
through the ranks, some jealous people began to slander him in private.
One day, after the King of the Han Dynasty
had a meeting with Zhi Buyi, the King of the Han Dynasty asked Zhi Buyi.
I recently heard a rumor about you, and I
wanted to confirm its authenticity.
He replied without hesitation.
What rumor have you heard about me?
Said the king.
I heard that you were having an affair with
your brother's wife.
(Zhi Buyi) answered.
I don't have a brother.
After Zhi Buyi had said this very short
sentence, he looked directly at the king. .
The king smiled and said to Zhi Buyi after
listening to his answer.
I don't think you would do such an immoral
thing either.
The literal translation of this idiom is
that Zhi Buyi has no brother, but Zhi Buyi is falsely accused of having an
affair with his brother's wife.
This idiom is used to describe a kind of
fabricated slander that has no basis in fact.
Dear friend, after listening to this story,
what inspirations or ideas do you have?
Do you like to be in the limelight or do
you prefer to keep a low profile? Have you ever come across slander or gossip
that has no basis in fact?
I hope this story can give you some new
insights.
無兄盜嫂(Zhi Buyi has no brother, Zhi Buyiw as
falsely accused of having an affair with his brother's wife).
中國的西漢王朝有一個著名的官員，他的名字叫做(直不疑)，歷史書上記載了一個他的故事。
他最喜歡的書是老子寫的道德經，他對這本書有很深刻的理解與體會，他也把這些讀書心得運用在他的日常生活中。
他不喜歡彰顯自己，他不追求名聲。
他不像其他的官員一樣誇耀自己在自己工作上的成就。
他的個性非常謙卑，當時的很多人都讚美他是一個擁有很高尚的品德的人。
隨著他在中央政府內的工作時間的增加，他的職位也慢慢地提高。
他後來升任成了漢王朝的中央政府內高級官員。
雖然他保持低調，但是隨著他的職位的晉升，開始有一些忌妒他的人在私底下毀謗他。
有一天，漢王朝的國王在與直不疑進行完一場會議後，漢王朝的國王問直不疑。
我最近聽到一個關於你的傳聞，我想向你確認一下這件事情的真實性。
直不疑回答。
你聽到了甚麼關於我的傳聞呢?
國王說。
我聽說你與你的哥哥的妻子之間有姦情。
直不疑回答。
我沒有哥哥。
直不疑說完這句很簡短的話後，他就直視國王。。
國王聽到直不疑的回答後笑著對直不疑說。
我也認為你不會做這種不道德的事情。
這句成語直接翻譯的意思是直不疑沒有哥哥，但是直不疑被誣賴他與他的哥哥的妻子有姦情。
這個成語用來形容一些完全沒有事實根據的捏造的毀謗。
親愛的朋友，聽了這個故事，你有什麼樣的靈感或想法?
你喜歡出風頭還是你比較喜歡低調一些呢?你是否曾遭遇到一些沒有事實根據的毀謗的毀謗呢?
我希望這個故事能給你帶來新的收穫。
