Friendship cannot be begged, and those who always look down upon you cannot be regarded as friends. Below are some idioms and allusions about making friends that I have compiled. Welcome to read them. Idiom allusions of making friends 1
The story comes from "Liezi·Tang Wen". The idiom "high mountains and flowing water" is a metaphor for a close friend or close friend, as well as a metaphor for beautiful music.
In the Spring and Autumn Period, there was a man named Yu Boya in the Chu State who was proficient in music and had superb piano skills. But he always felt that he still couldn't express his feelings about various things superbly. After the teacher found out, he took him by boat to Penglai Island in the East China Sea and let him enjoy the natural scenery and listen to the sound of the waves of the sea. Boya saw turbulent waves and splashing waves; seabirds flew and sang in his ears; the harmonious and beautiful music of nature seemed to ring in his ears.
He couldn't help but play the piano, turning the notes at will, blending the beauty of nature into the sound of the piano. However, no one could understand his music. He felt very lonely and distressed. .
One night, Boya took a boat trip. Facing the breeze and the bright moon, he was thinking a lot. He played the piano and the sound was melodious. Suddenly he felt that someone was listening to his music. Boya saw a woodcutter standing on the shore and asked the woodcutter to get on the boat. When he played a tune praising the mountains, the woodcutter said: "Majestic and solemn, like Mount Tai reaching into the clouds!" When he played to express the surging waves, the woodcutter said again: "It is broad and majestic, as if seeing the rolling waves. Flowing water, like the boundless sea!" Boya said excitedly: "Zhiyin." This woodcutter is Zhong Ziqi. Later, when Ziqi died early, Yu Boya found out about it and played the last piece of music in front of Zhong Ziqi's grave. Then he cut off all the strings and stopped playing the harp.
The story of Boya Ziqi has been passed down through the ages, and the beautiful music of mountains and flowing water still lingers in people's hearts and ears, and the story that it is difficult to find a close friend and a confidant is played out from generation to generation. There are too few close friends like Boya and Zhong Ziqi in the world. Meng Haoran once sighed, "If you want to play the harp, you will hate the ignorance of the music." Yue Fei also said during the sleepless night, "If you want to put your thoughts on the Yao harp, but you have few friends, who will listen when the string is broken?" Su Shi compared himself to Gu Hong and wrote "Pick up all the cold branches and refuse to live on them, the lonely Shazhou is cold". Jia Dao, on the other hand, has the bitterness of "two sentences that I have obtained in three years, and one chant that brings tears to my eyes. If I don't appreciate my good friend, I will go back to my hometown and lie down on the hill." And how rare is Yu Rang's generosity and pride that "a man will die for the one who knows him, and a woman will look for the one who pleases her". It's hard to find a friend, it's hard to find a confidant, whether it's a beautiful girl or a blue girl, "It's enough to have a close friend in life!" Allusions to idioms about making friends 2

Lian Po was very unconvinced and decided to humiliate him. When Lin Xiangru heard the news, he avoided meeting Lian Po everywhere. On the day of going to court, he said he was ill. One time, Lin Xiangru went out to meet Lian Po. Lian Po ordered his men to use various methods to block Lin Xiangru's road, and finally Lin Xiangru had to order him to return home. Lian Po was even more proud and spread the word everywhere.
Lin Xiangru's disciples heard about it and asked to go home one after another. Lin Xiangru asked why, and they said: "We work for you because we respect you as a truly noble gentleman. But now you actually tolerate the arrogant Lian Po. How can we?" Can't stand it?" After hearing this, Lin Xiangru laughed and asked, "Which one do you think is more powerful, King Qin or General Lian Po? I'm not even afraid of King Qin, so why am I afraid of Lian Po now? General Lian and I protect the State of Zhao with both civil and military power. As King Zhao's right-hand man, how can I ignore the country's interests because of a small personal grudge?" After hearing this, Lian Po was very ashamed and exposed his breasts. Carrying a thorn stick on his back, he apologized to Lin Xiangru. From then on, they became good friends who shared life, death and adversity, and worked together to serve the country. Idioms and allusions of making friends 3
Guan Ning and Hua Xin (xin) were very good friends when they were young. The two were inseparable all day long. They ate at the same table, read on the same couch, and slept in the same bed. They got along very harmoniously.
Once, they went to work together, weeding in the vegetable field. The two men worked hard without stopping to rest, and soon they had finished hoeing a large area.
Guan Ning raised his hoe, hoeed down, and hit something hard. Guan Ning was so surprised that he turned over a large piece of soil he had hoeed. In the dark soil, something yellow shone brightly. Guan Ning took a closer look and saw that it was a piece of gold. He said to himself: "I thought it was something hard, but it turned out to be an ingot of gold." Then he stopped paying attention and continued to hoe his grass. .
"What? Gold!" Hua Xin, who was not far away, couldn't help but feel moved when he heard this. He quickly dropped his hoe and ran over, picked up the gold nugget and held it in his hand to look at it carefully.
When Guan Ning saw this, he was waving the hoe in his hand while working, and scolded Hua Xin: "Money should be obtained through one's own hard work. A moral person cannot get something for nothing." Property."
Hua Xin heard this and said, "I understand this too." But he still held the gold in his hand and looked at it, unable to put it down. Later, he couldn't stand being stared at by Guan Ning, so he reluctantly left the gold and went back to work. But he was still thinking about the gold, and he didn't work as hard as before, and he kept sighing. Seeing him like this, Guan Ning said nothing and just shook his head secretly.
Another time, the two of them were sitting on a mat reading. Just as I was looking at it, suddenly there was a boiling sound outside, with the sound of drums and music, mixed with the shouts of gongs to clear the way and the noise of people watching the excitement. So Guan Ning and Hua Xin got up and walked to the window to see what happened.
It turned out that a dignitary was passing by in a car. A large group of followers, armed with weapons and uniforms, stood guarding the car in a majestic manner. Looking at the car decoration, it is even more luxurious: the car body is engraved with exquisite and beautiful patterns, the curtain covering the car is made of colorful silk and satin, decorated with gold threads around, and a large piece of jade is inlaid on the roof, making it look rich and noble. people.
Guan Ning was very dissatisfied with this. He returned to the original place, picked up the book and read it with concentration, completely turning a deaf ear to the noise outside, as if nothing happened.
Hua Xin was not like this. He was completely attracted by the arrogance and luxurious pomp. He felt that he could not see clearly in the room, so he simply stopped reading and hurriedly ran to the street to follow the crowd and follow the motorcade to take a closer look.
Guan Ning witnessed what Hua Xin did and could no longer suppress the sadness and disappointment in his heart. After Hua Xin came back, Guan Ning took out a knife and cut the mat in half in front of Hua Xin, and declared sadly and decisively: "Our ambitions and tastes are very different. From now on, We are like this cut straw mat, no longer friends."
Enlightenment: It is difficult to become friends if we have different opinions. True friends should be based on the same ideological foundation and goals, pursue and make progress together.
If there is no inner spiritual tacit understanding and only superficial intimacy, such friends cannot truly communicate and understand each other, and the meaning of being friends is lost. Idioms and Allusions for Making Friends 4

During the Warring States Period, King Hui of Wei appointed Pang Juan as a general, launched a massive attack on Zhao, and besieged Handan, the capital of Zhao. Zhao Chenghou knew that the national power could not resist the Wei army, so he dedicated the land of Zhongshan to Qi and asked Qi to send troops to relieve the siege. The King of Qi immediately worshiped Tian Ji as his general and Sun Bin as his military advisor, and led his troops to rescue Zhao. Sun Bin proposed a plan and said: "Wei will definitely send out all its elite troops to attack Zhao, leaving only the old, weak, sick and disabled in the country. We might as well threaten to attack Daliang. After hearing this, the Wei army will definitely withdraw its troops outside Handan and turn back. Save Daliang, we can attack Wei soldiers on the way, and we will definitely win." Tian Ji used Sun Bin's strategy. After Pang Juan heard the news of Qi's attack on Daliang, he immediately withdrew the troops surrounding Handan to rescue Daliang.

In 283 BC, King Huiwen of Zhao State received a piece of jade called "He's Bi", which was a priceless treasure. After King Zhao of Qin heard about it, he was very envious and wanted to get it.
So King Zhao of Qin sent an envoy to see King Zhao Huiwen with a letter. He said that the State of Qin was willing to exchange 15 cities for the piece of "He's Bi". This puts the king of Zhao in a difficult position. He should give the jade bi, because he is afraid that the king of Qin will not keep his promise and will not give the jade to the city. But he should not give it, because he is afraid that he will offend the king of Qin and lead his troops to attack Zhao. He discussed the matter with the ministers. Later, someone recommended his retainer Lin Xiangru to go to Qin to handle the matter. King Huiwen sent someone to call Lin Xiangru for a discussion, and felt that he was a suitable candidate, so he decided to send him to Qin with He's Bi.
Lin Xiangru arrived in Qin and presented the jade to the King of Qin. The King of Qin took it and saw that the jade was white, flawless and crystal clear. It was really a priceless treasure. He was so happy that he could not close his mouth. He turned over and admired it for a long time, and then passed it on to the ministers and beauties in the harem. They were all full of praise and congratulated King Qin. Lin Xiangru stood aside and waited for a long time, but did not see King Qin mention the change of city. He knew that King Qin wanted to deceive the jade bi. But at this time, the jade was given to them and they could not take it back by force. Lin Xiangru came to his senses in a hurry and politely said to King Qin: "Although this He's jade is the most precious treasure in the world, it's a pity that it still has a small flaw (xiá) on it. Your Majesty may not have seen it yet. Let me point it out to you." King Qin believed it to be true and took the jade. The bi was returned to Lin Xiangru. Lin Xiangru took "He's Bi" in his hand, stepped back a few steps, leaned against the palace pillar, and said sternly: "This 'He's Bi' is a treasure known to everyone in the world. At first, the king sent a letter to say that he wanted it. I exchanged 15 cities for this piece of jade. But today I saw the king sitting down to accept the jade and passing it around casually. He had no intention of exchanging the city. So if the king forces me, I will take the jade back. I would rather smash my head and this piece of jade on this palace pillar!" After saying this, he was about to hit the pillar. The King of Qin quickly tried to dissuade him with a smile, and asked someone to bring a map to explain which cities and lands were to be ceded to Zhao. Lin Xiangru knew that King Qin wanted to stabilize him first and then deceive the jade away, so he said to King Qin: "This jade is a rare treasure. Before sending it away, our King Zhao fasted for five days and held a grand ceremony." If the king really wants to exchange the jade, he should fast for five days and hold a corresponding ceremony for receiving the jade. Only then can I dare to offer the jade." King Qin Zhao saw Lin Xiangru's resolute attitude and knew that taking it by force would not work, so he agreed. .
Lin Xiangru returned to the hotel, sent an entourage to disguise himself as a poor man, wrapped the jade wall around his waist, and secretly sent him back to Zhao State along the path.
Five days later, King Qin invited envoys from Chu, Yan, Qi, Wei and other countries to participate in the ceremony, hoping to show his majesty. After the arrangements were made, the envoy from Zhao Kingdom came to the palace. Lin Xiangru bowed according to the envoy's ceremony. When the King of Qin saw that his hand was empty, he asked him where the jade was. Lin Xiangru said calmly: "Since Duke Mu, there have been more than 20 monarchs in your country, and none of them can be trusted." Now I am also afraid of being deceived, so I sent someone to send He's Bi back to Zhao.
"When the King of Qin heard this, he became furious and ordered Lin Xiangru to be tied up and questioned. Lin Xiangru calmly said: "Your Majesty, please calm down and let me explain it clearly in front of everyone: Everyone knows that Qin is strong and Zhao is weak. Only strong countries in the world bully the weak. In national affairs, there is no reason for a weak country to bully a strong country. If your Majesty really wants the jade, it is not difficult. First hand over 15 cities to the State of Zhao, and then send an envoy with me to the State of Zhao to get the jade. The State of Zhao will never dare to capture the city without giving the jade, and go and carry the jade. Reputation for keeping one's word. I know that I have fooled the king this time and deserve death. Please punish me. Let all countries know that the king killed the envoy of Zhao State in order to get a piece of jade. People in the world can also know the right and wrong. "What he said made the King of Qin stunned. He thought that even if he killed Lin Xiangru, he would not get the jade, and he would get a bad reputation, so he ordered Lin Xiangru to be released. As a result, Qin was reluctant to give 15 cities to Zhao, and Zhao did not give them." "He's Bi" to the State of Qin.

One time, Lin Xiangru went out in a car and saw Lian Po's car coming towards him from a distance. Lin Xiangru came and hurriedly asked his men to drive the car into the alley to avoid it. His men thought that the master was afraid of Lian Po, and they were very puzzled. Lin Xiangru explained to them: "The Qin State is so powerful, I am not afraid of General Lian." What is there to be afraid of? I think the reason why the tyrannical Qin State does not dare to use troops easily against our Zhao State today is just because Zhao State has me and General Lian. If General Lian and I cannot live in harmony and fight like tigers, one of the tigers will be injured, and Qin will take the opportunity to invade Zhao. The reason why I avoided General Lian was because I put the safety of the country first and did not care about personal grudges. "
Lin Xiangru's words reached Lian Po's ears. Lian Po was deeply moved by Lin Xiangru's broad mind and felt very ashamed. So he took off his shirt and tied a thorn stick on his back. Ask someone to take him to Lin Xiangru's house to apologize. From then on, the two became close friends.
