剛愎不仁(He was a stubborn, willful, and unkind man.)
中國晉王朝的一個著名的大臣，他的名字是溫嶠，歷史書上記載過一個關於他的故事。
西元316年，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。西晉王朝中的許多大臣與官員們逃亡到中國的長江的南邊。
西元317年，一個西晉王朝的王室成員在幾個重要的大臣的協助下，自行宣布自己成為國王並且建立了東晉王朝，然後這個國王設立建康市為首都。
晉王朝有幾個著名的家族，這幾個家族中勢力最大而且名人最多的就是王氏家族，東晉王朝的中央政府內有很多的官員都是王氏家族的成員，這個家族所實際掌握的權力甚至超越了王室。
東晉王朝的第二任國王的名字是司馬紹，他擔任國王期間，王氏家族中勢力最大的是一個名字叫做王敦的將軍，王敦掌握了東晉王朝最強大的一支軍隊。
西元324年，王敦帶領他的軍隊發動叛變，在王敦發動叛變不久後，他突然生病而且病死。王敦死了之後，他所帶領的那支軍隊失去了領導者，所有的人立刻宣布投降，這場叛變很快地就結束了。
司馬紹準備發布一到命令，他計畫逮捕所有王敦麾下的軍官與軍事參謀，然後嚴厲的懲罰這些人。
溫嶠聽到這個消息之後，他對司馬紹說。
我曾經擔任過王敦的軍事參謀，王敦手下的很多人我都認識，我跟他們中間的許多人是好朋友，我想要提出我的一些建議，希望你可以採納。
王敦是一個個性固執又任性又不仁慈的人，他非常的殘忍，他用很粗暴的方式對待他的部下。他喜歡聽諂媚的話，他不喜歡聽正直的話，中央政府無法管束他，他的親人也無法勸他改變他的行為。
由於他很容易發怒，他手下的軍官們與軍事參謀們不敢輕易發表自己的意見，也不敢跟同僚討論他們軍隊中的事情，他手下的軍官們幾乎每天都生活在恐懼中。
他的手下的那些軍官們與軍事參謀們沒有辦法主動提出要離開王敦的軍隊，他們只能每天忍耐。
基於我所觀察到的這些事實的真相，我認為我們應該要審慎地按個案來處理每一個王敦麾下的軍官與軍事參謀。如果是被迫參與這場叛變的軍官與軍事參謀，我們應該原諒他們，如果是主動參與這場叛變的那些軍官與軍事參謀，我們就要嚴厲的懲罰他們。
司馬紹是一個願意接受好的意見的好的國王，他經過思考之後，決定採納溫嶠的意見。
這句成語的直接翻譯的意思是他是一個個性固執又任性又不仁慈的人。
這句成語被用來形容一個人個性固執又任性又不仁慈。
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。
你是否想過要離開現在的公司呢?如果你想過要離開現在這間公司，那為何你到現在還不離開呢?
我希望這故事能讓你產生一些新的收穫。

He was a stubborn, willful, and unkind man. .(剛愎不仁)
Wen Qiao was a renowned minister of the Jin
dynasty in China, and his story is chronicled in historical texts.
In 316 AD, the Former Han Kingdom, which
was founded by nomadic people in northern China, captured the capital of the
Western Jin Dynasty. The Western Jin king was killed and the dynasty collapsed,
with much of northern China being occupied by the Former Han Kingdom. Many of
the Western Jin Dynasty's ministers and officials fled south of the Yangtze
River.
In 317 AD, a member of the Western Jin
royal family, with the help of several influential ministers, proclaimed himself
king and founded the Eastern Jin dynasty. He then established Jiankang as the
capital.
The Jin dynasty comprised several prominent
families, the most powerful of which was the Wang family, who produced many
notable figures. Many officials in the Eastern Jin central government were
members of the Wang family, and this family wielded more power than the royal
family.
The second emperor of the Eastern Jin
dynasty was Sima Shao. During his reign, the most powerful member of the Wang
family was the general Wang Dun, who commanded the most powerful army in the
dynasty.
In 324 AD, Wang Dun led his army in a
rebellion. Shortly afterwards, he fell suddenly ill and died. Without a leader,
his army immediately surrendered and the rebellion quickly ended.
Sima Shao prepared to issue an order to
arrest all of Wang Dun's officers and military advisers, intending to severely
punish them.
Upon hearing this news, Wen Qiao said to
Sima Shao,
'I once served as Wang Dun's military
advisor. I know many of his men, and I am good friends with many of them. I
would like to offer some suggestions, which I hope you will consider.
"Wang Dun was a stubborn, wilful and
unkind man. He was extremely cruel and treated his subordinates with great
brutality. He delighted in flattery and disliked honest advice. Neither the
central government nor his family could control him or persuade him to change
his ways.
Because of his volatile temper, his
officers and staff were afraid to express their opinions or discuss matters
within the army. His officers lived in constant fear.
They had no choice but to endure their fate
and were unable to leave Wang Dun's army voluntarily.
Based on these observations, I believe we
should handle each of Wang Dun's officers and staff on a case-by-case basis.
Those who were forced into the rebellion should be forgiven, while those who
actively participated should be severely punished.
Sima Shao was a good king who was willing
to accept good advice. After careful consideration, he decided to adopt Wen Qiao's
suggestion.
The literal translation of this idiom is
that he was stubborn, wilful and unkind.
It is used to describe a person who is
stubborn, wilful and unkind.
