Idioms and allusions
During the Three Kingdoms period, Cao Zhi, Cao Cao's youngest son, was quick witted. His brother Cao Pi abandoned Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty and established the Wei Dynasty as emperor. He ordered Cao Zhi to write a poem within seven steps. Cao Zhi wrote a poem: "boil beans, hold them as soup, and percolate them as juice; the Osmunda burns under the cauldron, and the beans cry in the cauldron; they are born of the same root, so why is it too urgent to fry each other?" Cao Pi also thought that it was too slow to form a chapter in seven steps, and asked to write poems in response to the voice.
