Schleswig, the founder of the post-Zhao dynasty, was originally a Jiezu who entered the fortress. After he proclaimed himself emperor in Guo Xiang (now Xingtai, Hebei), he made great contributions to his country.

Some people are very angry and call Jie people Hu people. Schleswig made a law: no matter what you say or write, it is forbidden to use the word "Hu", and offenders ask for forgiveness.

One day, Schleswig-Holstein called local officials in Shanyu Pavilion. Fan Tan, the general, came to see Liu Bei in rags, and he was very dissatisfied. He asked, "Fan Tan, why didn't you appear in court neatly?" Fan Tan didn't know how to answer in a panic, and casually replied, "It's all because the Hu people have no morality and took all the clothes, which made me come to North Korea in rags."

As soon as he finished speaking, he realized that he had violated the ban and quickly kowtowed and repented. When Schleswig saw that he knew the crime, he stopped suing. During a routine lunch, Schleswig pointed to a plate of gourd silk and asked Fan Tan, "Do you know the name of this thing?" Fan Tan saw that Shile was deliberately questioning him, so he respectfully replied, "Purple case delicacies, silver cups of green tea, golden bottles of nectar, and jade plate cucumbers."

Schleswig-Holstein smiled with satisfaction.
