Idioms and allusions

It comes from Tang Yu Lin Fang Zheng, written by Wang Dang of Song Dynasty: "when a minister hears evil, he will not do justice. If he curses a minister, he will not do it." In Zhenguan, the western regions offered Hu monks, and the incantation could kill people. Taizong ordered Zhuang, who chose the soldiers in the flying horse, to try them. He died as if he had spoken, and Su as if he had spoken. The emperor told Zong Zhengqing Fu Yi, who said, "this evil law is also true. When a minister hears evil, he will not do what is right. If he curses him, he will not be able to do it. " The emperor called the monk to curse Yi, and Yi was right. For a moment, monk Hu suddenly fell down. If he was attacked by something, he would not recover. During the reign of Zhenguan of Tang Dynasty, a monk was presented to the western regions. He can use incantations to make people die, and he can also use incantations to revive the dead. Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty ordered Yu Feiqi to bring a strong man to the test. Sure enough, as monk Hu said, if you let him die, he will die, if you let him live, he will live. Emperor Taizong told Taichang Shaoqing Fu Yi about it. Fu Yi replied, "it's a magic trick. I've heard that evil does not violate right. If you let him curse me, it will not succeed. " Taizong then asked monk Hu to curse Fu Yi. Fu Yi stood opposite monk Hu, but he didn't feel anything. After a while, monk Hu suddenly fell down, as if he had been hit by something, and he never woke up. Notes: Zhenguan: the year of Emperor Taizong of Tang Dynasty, 627-649; western regions: the general name of all the countries west of Dunhuang; Feiqi: in the 12th year of Zhenguan, there were left and right garrisons at Xuanwumen of Chang'an palace in the capital, under the command of General Zhu Wei, whose soldiers were called "Feiqi", which can be translated as "forbidden guards"
