He will distribute the rewards on the same
day(賞不踰日)
In the Western Jin Dynasty of China, there
was a famous general named Zu Ti. His story is recorded in history books.
After a Pre-Han kingdom founded by nomadic
people in northern China captured the capital of the Western Jin Dynasty, the
king of the Western Jin Dynasty was killed and the Western Jin Dynasty fell.
Many lands in northern China were occupied by the Pre-Han Kingdom.
After the fall of the Western Jin Dynasty,
a member of the royal family of the Western Jin Dynasty established the Eastern
Jin Dynasty in southern China.
A year after the establishment of the
Eastern Jin Dynasty, Zu Ti led an army he had formed by boat across the Yangtze
River to northern China.
He vowed to reclaim the lands that once
belonged to the Western Jin Dynasty and save the people of the Western Jin
Dynasty.
Zu Ti used his wisdom to win several
battles. He also contacted and organised some of the warlords from the original
Western Jin Dynasty who were still in northern China. Under his leadership, he
reclaimed many of the occupied lands in northern China.
Zu Ti was a commander who loved his
subordinates very much. He treated soldiers who were inferior to him with
humility and kindness.
He is very good at encouraging soldiers in
the army. He will take the initiative to praise these soldiers when they have
made small contributions to the army. He will also distribute rewards to these
meritorious soldiers on the same day.
Zu Ti was a very frugal person in life. He
did not accumulate much wealth for himself. He was very generous to others and
very willing to give.
After reclaiming much of the occupied land
in northern China, he sent soldiers to help people repair their war-damaged
homes and encouraged people to resume farming.
He sent soldiers to collect the dry bones
of those who had died in the war. He held solemn funerals for the dead whose
names were no longer known, and buried the bones with great care.
Everyone was moved and respected by Zu Ti's
behaviour. Many old people among the people shed tears.
These people said
We did not expect that we could still be alive
and return to our original peaceful and happy life. We were so moved. When we
saw Zuti, we were happy like a child seeing its parents. We wanted to sing and
dance with joy.
The direct translation of this idiom is
that he will distribute the reward on the same day.
This idiom is used to describe the delivery
of rewards very quickly and immediately.

賞不踰日(He will distribute the rewards on the
same day)
中國的西晉王朝有一個著名的名字叫做祖逖的將軍，歷史書上記載了一個他的故事。
中國北方一個由遊牧民族建立的前漢王國攻佔了西晉王朝的首都後，西晉王朝的國王被殺，西晉王朝滅亡，中國北方的許多土地都被前漢王國所佔領。
西晉王朝滅亡後，有一個西晉王朝的王室成員在中國的南方成立東晉王朝。
東晉王朝成立一年後，祖逖率領一支他所成立的軍隊乘船渡過長江前往中國的北方。
他立誓要收回那些曾經屬於西晉王朝的土地並且解救那些西晉王朝的人民。
祖逖運用他的智慧打了好幾場勝仗，他也聯絡並且組織了一些仍然留在中國北方的原本西晉王朝的軍閥，在他的帶領下，他收回了很多中國的北方被佔領的土地。
祖逖是一個很愛護下屬的長官，他用謙虛與仁慈的態度對待那些些地位比他低的士兵。
他很會鼓勵軍隊中的士兵，軍隊中的士兵們只有小小的功勞，他就會主動讚美這些士兵，他還會在當天就發放獎賞給這些有功勞的士兵。
祖逖是一個生活的非常節約的人，他沒有為自己累積很多的財產，他對別人非常大方，他非常樂於付出。
他收回了很多中國的北方被佔領的土地之後，他派遣士兵們協助百姓們修復因為戰爭而受損的家園，他鼓勵這些百姓們恢復耕種。
他派遣士兵把那些在戰亂時候死亡的人民的枯乾的骨頭集中起來，他為這些已經不知道名字的逝者舉辦莊重的葬禮並且很慎重地埋葬這些骨頭。
祖逖的行為讓所有的百姓都非常的感動與尊敬，百姓中有很多老人們都流著眼淚。
這些百姓們說。
我們沒有想到我們還可以活著並且可以恢復到原本安寧與幸福的生活，我們太感動了，我們看到祖逖就像是一個小孩子看到父母一樣的喜悅，我們快樂地想要唱歌與跳舞。
這句成語直接翻譯的意思是他當天就會發放獎勵。
這句成語被用來形容發放獎勵非常快速而且即時。
親愛的朋友，你聽完這個故事有什麼樣的或有什麼樣的啟發呢。
你的國家中有令你覺得尊敬的政治人物嗎?你認為一個好的政治人物應該有怎樣的行為表現呢?
我希望這個故事能讓你產生一些新的收穫。
