Sister and brother

One day in 397 B.C. (the 5th year of King An of Zhou, the son of King Wei Lie of Zhou), Ch'an Lei, the minister of Korea, was conducting official business in the hall when a man suddenly came running outside the gate. He said, "There is an important matter to report to the minister." When the guards saw that the man came in recklessly, they went to stop him. When the guards pushed him, they all fell into a slump. He pushed the guards down and ran like hell down the hall, pulling out a dagger and stabbing Man Tire right through the chest. At that moment, there was chaos, and they all shouted, "There are thieves! There are thieves!" As they closed the gate, the guards swarmed up. The assassin took a dagger and slashed his face horizontally and vertically, gouged out his eyes with his fingers, then opened his stomach and pulled out his intestines. The group looked and froze. The assassin had cut his face, gouged out his eyes, and opened his stomach, but he was still alive. At the end of the day, he wiped a knife on his neck and then lay down.

Someone had already reported to Marquis Han Lie. Han Liehou asked, "Who is the assassin?" Who knows? He asked everyone to go and see. They all said, "The assassin doesn't look like him anymore. Who can recognize him?" This case was puzzling. Han Yeol Hou wanted to investigate the person who was responsible for the assassination and the assassin's family so that he could take revenge on the minister. But the assassin's face could not be recognized, so where could we find out his name and origin? The assassin could not even be identified, let alone the person who was responsible for the assassination. Han Liehou asked people to put the assassin's body on the street for people to come and identify. He also offered a reward, saying, "Whoever recognizes the assassin and can tell his name and where he came from will be rewarded with 1,000 taels of gold." Some people wanted to make a fortune and came to identify with him. But the corpse's face had been scratched messily, and both eyes were gone. For several days in a row, I do not know how many people look at it, but none of them can recognize it.a personal vendetta." Nie jarred his eyes and said, "Don't say that. Yan Zhongzi repaid revenge for revenge, while my brother repaid kindness for kindness. It's a great man to be clear about his grudges."

It turned out that Yan Zhongzi and Chivalry were working together as a palace in Korea, and the two of them had hatred. One day, Yan Zhongzi said that Chivalry was bad, and Chivalry scolded Yan Zhuangzi. He pulled out his sword and went to stab him. Luckily, someone pulled him away, so he didn't get into trouble. Fearing that he would be attacked by the minister, Yan Zhongzi left the country and went to look for assassins, intent on killing Chivalry.

When he arrived at Qi, he saw a cattle slaughterer, who was very big and strong. He did not sound like a native of Qi. When Yan Zhongzi talked with him, he realized that he was from Wei. This Wei man once recommended a friend to his master. The friend was very good at flattering his master, and within a year, he became a butler, and in turn, blew the person who recommended him out. In his anger, he killed the butler. At that time, he fled to Qi with his mother and sister and slaughtered cattle for others to survive. As soon as Yan Zhongzi heard where he came from and what had happened to him, he told him what was on his mind. The two men made friends. Yan Zhongzi's family was quite rich, so he gave his new friend several thousand taels of gold and helped him support his mother, and prepared a decent dowry to marry off his sister. After a year, the brother's mother died, and Yan Zhongzi helped him send again. Yan Zhongzi spent a lot of money on this cow slaughterer to buy his heart to avenge himself.
