Idiom story: Jingwei fills the sea

Before the Xia dynasty, the country had not yet formed. At that time, the emperor was far less rich and enjoyed many privileges. But a pure public servant, only doing his duty.

The children of the emperor have no special titles such as prince and princess, and their status is not noble, just like the children of ordinary people.

Emperor Yan has a daughter named Jing Wei, who is cheerful and lively and likes to fight against injustice.

One day, she went out to play with children and saw an older child riding a horse.

The children are tired and climb down, but the older children will not give up.

Jingwei walked over and pointed at the head of the older child and said angrily, "You are shameless. What are your skills in bullying children? If you have the strength to fight tigers and bears, people will say you are a hero.

"

The boss saw that Jingwei was a little girl, born thin and didn't take her seriously at all.

He jumped down from the child's back, walked up to Jingwei and said, "I am the son of the sea dragon king. Who are you? How dare you take care of me! "

Jingwei said, "What's the big deal about the son of the Dragon King? I am also the daughter of Emperor Yan. Don't run around on land in the future, or I'll hang you in a tree to dry.

"

The son of the dragon king said, "I'll let you know my skills first, and then I'll mind your own business."

"He said to play.

Jingwei followed his father to hunt in the mountains since he was a child. His hands and feet are flexible and his strength is not small. Seeing each other's rudeness, he did not show weakness. He dodged the opponent's fist, flew up and kicked the dragon king's son.

The son of the Dragon King stood up, refused to give up, punched again and again, and was punched in the chest by Jingwei, throwing his head high.

Seeing that the son of the Dragon King could not defeat Jingwei, he had to return to the sea in despair.

A few days later, Jingwei went swimming in the sea, having a good time, and happened to be discovered by the son of the Dragon King.

He swam to Jingwei and said, You got a bargain on land one day. Today, you run to my door and make a mistake quickly, or I will make waves and drown you.

"

Jingwei stubbornly said: "I am right. I don't know what happened.

"

Seeing that Jingwei was stubborn, the son of the Dragon King had no intention of giving up. He immediately stirred up the sea and set off strong winds and waves. Jingwei had no time to struggle and was drowned.

After the death of Jingwei, he became a bird with red claws and a white mouth, determined to fill the sea.

She threw stones and branches into the sea with her mouth and shouted "Jingwei, Jingwei", as if to motivate herself.

Year after year, she never stopped.
