Di Xin's anecdotes and allusions.
1, nine-foot meat forest
According to Records of Historical Records Yin Benji, Shang Zhouwang took wine as a pool and hung meat as a forest, drinking and having fun all night. Later generations used the wine pool and meat forest to describe the extravagance of life, as well as the richness of wine and meat and the luxury of banquets. For example, when Hanshu recorded the hospitality of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to the envoys of the Western Regions, he also used the word "wine pool meat forest".
2, the punishment of branding
According to the print "No Way to Burn" and "Xun Zi Yi Bing" before "Romance of the Gods", Di Xin once set the punishment of burning. Lu Chunqiu Ji and Huai Nan Zi also discussed the existence of burning punishment and Ji Chang's request for its abolition. It was recorded in Records of the Historian Yin Benji that a kind of instrument of torture was set up, which was named "Bao Ge" and was later abolished at the suggestion of Ji Chang.
3, drinking lost days
According to "Everything is done wrong in the forest", Di Xin was in the deep palace, burning candles behind closed doors and drinking for a long night. Because of the excessive feast, he forgot the date and asked the people around him, so he sent someone to ask Ji Zi. Ji Zi said to his disciples: If a country forgets the date in order to become the master of the world, the world will be in danger. If a country doesn't know, only I know, then I am in danger. And used drunkenness as an excuse to say I didn't know.
