Nhưng sau khi Quang Vof Đế lên ngôi, Ba?nh Ba?ng vâfn chi? giưf nguyên chức vụ cuf, nên ông rất bất bi?nh trước việc na?y.
Bấy giơ?, Ngư Dương thuộc quyê?n cai qua?n cu?a U Châu mục Chu Phu?. Chu Phu? tư?ng ra lệnh trưng thu tiê?n nong va? lương thực tại Ngư Dương, nhưng Ba?nh Ba?ng cậy mi?nh có công, nên đaf tư? chối yêu câ?u na?y cu?a Chu Phu? , đô?ng thơ?i co?n nói ra nhiê?u lơ?i oán trách.

Ba?nh Ba?ng nghe theo, ông đaf tư? chối va?o kinh va? xuất 20 nghi?n quân tiến đánh Chu Phu?. Chu Phu? viết thư khuyên ông ră?ng: "Nay nha? nước vư?a mới tạm yên ô?n, chúng ta đê?u đang rốc sức xây dựng cơ nghiệp, cớ sao ông lại tự mi?nh la?m nhưfng việc bạo ngược. Ông nên biết ră?ng, pha?m việc gi? cufng đư?ng nên khiến ngươ?i thân đau lo?ng, khiến ke? thu? ha? hê". Nhưng Ba?nh Ba?ng không nghe theo lơ?i khuyên na?y, vâfn một mực xuất binh đánh chiếm được Kế Tha?nh. Sau đó, Ba?nh Ba?ng tự xưng la? Yến Vương, quyê?n thế tư?ng một thơ?i trơ? nên lớn mạnh, nhưng do ông không được lo?ng ngươ?i, cuối cu?ng đaf bị thất bại, dâfn tới một kết cục bi tha?m.

Gương vỡ lại lành
Nói việc nối lại được tình xưa nghĩa cũ, tình nghĩa vợ chồng đã tan nay lại họp.
Bản sự thi: Từ Đức Ngôn có yêu công chúa Nhạc Xương. Gặp buổi nước Trần suy loạn. Từ Đức Ngôn nói với công chúa rằng: Cứ như tài sắc tuyệt thế của nàng mà lại gặp khi nước nah2 nghiêng đổ tất là phải vào chốn quyền hào, hoặc may còn hy vọng gặp lại nhau thì nên có vật gì để sau này làm tin." Nói xong liền lấy cái gương đập vỡ ra làm hai mãnh, mỗi người giữ một nữa, hẹn rằng năm sau ngày rằm tháng giêng đem ra bán ở chợ kinh đô. Nước Trần bị diệt, quả công chúa phải vào hầu nhà Dương Tố. Đức Ngôn năm sau y hẹn lên kinh, tìm đến chợ thấy một người gái hầu đem bán một mãnh gương vỡ. Từ bèn lấy nữa mãnh gương của mình đem hợp lại thì thấy đúng vừa vặn như nguyên, mới đề bài thơ: "Kinh dữ nhân câu khứ,
kính quy nhân vị quy,
Vô phục hằng nga ảnh,
Không lưu minh nguyệt huy." (Gương với người đều đi, gương đã về còn người chưa về, không làm nguyên lại được, bóng hằng nga chỉ còn lưu xuông lại ánh sáng mặt trăng).
Công chúa được thư, khóc lóc thảm thiết, suốt ngày không ăn uống gì. Dương Tố biết chuyện bèn cho mời Ngôn đến, đưa công chúa trả lại cho vợ chồng đoàn tụ.

Muông thỏ cung chim ​

Ý nói những người tài giỏi hết thời bị chủ hãm hại.
Sử ký : Năm thứ 6 đời nhà Hán, có người đưa thư báo Sở Vương rằng Hàn Tínlàm phản. Hán Cao Tổ dùng mưu kế của Trần Bình, sai sứ báo với chư hầu : Nhà vua sẽ họp chư hầu ở đất Trần và sẽ đi chơi Vân Mộng. Kỳ thực nhà vua muốn bắt Tín nhưng Tín không biết. Hàn Tínđến ra mắt Hán Cao Tổ ở đất Trần, Hán Cao Tổ bèn sai võ sĩ trói Tín lại, chở ở xe sau. Tín nói : "Quả nhược nhân ngôn : Giảo thỏ tử lương cẩu phan, cao điểu tận lương cung tàng, địch quốc phá mưu thần vong ! Thiên hạ dĩ định, ngã cố đương phạnh" (Quả như lời người ta nói : Thỏ khôn chết thì chó phải bị nấu, chim cao hết thì cung tốt bị bỏ xó, nước địch bị phá thì mưu thần hết đời ! Nay thiên hạ đã bình định rồi, ta bị nấu là đáng lắm.)

Retreating about Thirty Miles as Con***ion For Peace
During the Spring and Autumn Period (770-476 B.C.), Duke Xian of the State of Jin Killed the crown prince Sheng because he had heard slanders about Sheng and believed them. He also sent his men to arrest Chong Er, Shen Sheng and believed them. He also sent his men to arrest Chonh Er, Shen Sheng''s brother. Hearing the news, Chong Er escaped from the state of Jin, remaining a fugitive for more than ten years.
After innumerable hardships, Chong Er arrived at the State of Chu at last. King Cheng of the State of Chu treated him with high respect as he would have treated the ruler of a state, believing that he would have a vright fuure.
One day, King Cheng of the State of Chu gave a banquet in honoudr of Chong Er. Suddenly, amid the harmonious atmosphere of drinking and talking, King Cheng of the State of Chu asked Chong Er. "How will you repay me when you return to the State of Jin and become its ruler one day?" After thinking for a moment, Chong Er said, "You have plenty of beauties and attendants as well as jewelry and silk cloth, and the state of Chu abounds in rare brides and animals. What treasure can the State of Jin boast having to present to your majesty?" King Cheng of the State of Chu said, "You are too modest. Nevertheless, you still have to show your gratitude to me in one way or another, I presume?" Smiling, Chong Er answered, "If I should be fortunate enouge to return to the State of Jin and become its ruler, the State of Jin would be friendly to the State of Chu. If, one day, there should be a war between the two states, I would definitely order my troops to retreat three SHE (one SHE is equivalent to thirty LI. The LI is a Chinese unit of length equivalent to 1/2 kilometre. And, therefore, three SHE is about thirty miles.) as a con***ion for peace. If, under that con***ion, you were still not reconciled, I would have to fight with you."
Four years later, as might be expected, Chong Er returned to the State of Jin and became its ruler. He was none other than Duke Wen of the State of Jin famous in ancient Chinese history. Ruled by him, the State of Jin became increasingly powerful.
In the year 533 B.C., the Chu troops and the Jin troops confronted each other in a battle. Faithful to his promise, Duke Wen of the State of Jin ordered his troops to retreat about thirty miles. After retreating, the Jin troops were stationed at Chengpu. Seeing that the Jin troops were retreating, the Chu troops thought that the enemy troops were afraid, and began chasing them. Taking advantage of the Chu troops'' arrogance and their talking the Jin troops lightly, the Jin troops concentrated their forces and inflicted a crushing defeat on the Chu troops, thus winning the victory of the battle of Chengpu.
This set phrase, "retreating about thirty miles as a con***ion for peace," is derived from the Chapter "The Twenty-second Year of Duke Xi" in ZuoZhuan, the famous commentary by Zuo Qiuming on The spring and Autumn Annals. The idea of this set phrase is to give way to somebody in order to avoid a conflict.

Like Fire and Flowering Rush
In the years around 480 B.C.,China was in the last phase of the Spring and Autumn Period.Fu Chai,King of the State of Wu,conquered the states of Yue,Lu and Chi one after another.Then Fu Chai,overweeningly ambitious,led his army marching into the Northwest in an attempt to conquer the State of Jin in one vigorous effort.
But just at that time,Gou Jian,king of the State of Yue,outflanked Fu Chai and attacked him in the rear.Gou Jian''s army fought one battle after another and arrived in Gu Su,capital of the State of Wu,at last,and took away the big boats of the State of Wu.Gou Jin also sent his troops to occupy the Huai River immediately,thus cutting off Fu Chai''s retreat
The shocking news reached Fu Chai,king of the State of Wu,like a head-on blow to him.So he called his civilian officials and military generals at once to find a way to deal with this serious situation.His civilian officials and military their troops now would mean defeat,and that they would be attacked by both the troops of the Jin army and the troops of the Yue army.But ,if they could defeat the State of Jin,Fu Chai would become a powerful chief of the princes at that time,and it would not be too late for Fu Chai to settle with Gou Jian after that.
Having made this decision,they knew that a pressing matter of the moment was to conquer th State of Jin as quickly as possible.After considering over and over again,they decided to try to defeat the Jin army by a surprise move.
One day towards evening,the king of the State of Wu gave his orders.The officers and men of the whole army ate their fill,and the steeds were well fed with fodder.30,000 officers and men were chosen from the whole army to from three phalanxes,with 10,000officers and men each.The solders in the middle phalanx wore white suits of armour,and carried white flags and white bows and arrows,and they were led by king of the State of Wu Fu Chai himself.The other two phalanxes were led by senior generals.The soldiers in the left phalanx wore red suits of armour,and carried red flags and red bows and arrows.The in dealing with the case,because the empress would certainly blame him and punish him.How could he solve the problem then? He turned the problem over and over in his mind, and finally thought out a "brilliant scheme".
Lai Junchen had a sumptuous feast prepared,and invited Zhou Xing to his home. The two of them urged each other to drink,and they talked while drinking.After the wine had gone round three times,I often come across prisoners who stubbournly refuse to admit they are guilty.I wonder if you have any effective measures." Hearing this,Zhou Xing said,"Get a big vat,scorch it hot with charcoal fire all around,and then let the prisoner come into the vat.Will the prisoner fail to make a comfession of his crime?"Hearing this,LaiJunchen nodded his head in approval repeatedly.He then ordered his subordinates to bring a big vat ,and had a charcoal fire lit all around it as Zhou Xing had said.He then turned to Zhou Xing and said,"Someone in the rebellion.The empress has ordered me to deal with the case severely.So I beg your pardon,but would you kindly step into the soldiers in the right phalanx wore black suits of armour,and carried black flags and black bows and arrows.The whole army set out at midnight,and arrived at dawn at a place within a LI''s distance of the Jin army.When the day was beginning to break,the soldiers of the Wu army began to berat the drums heavily and their shoutings resounded like rolls of thunder.
Awakening from their dreams,the solders of the Jin army were almost stupefied by the imposing manner of the three phalanxes of the Wu army.The white phalanx was like a field covered with flowering rush,the red phalanx was like a burning fire,and the black phalanx was simply like a sea too deep to fathom.
This story comes from Comversations from the States.Later generations often use the set phrase "like fire and flowering rush"to refer to tremendous momentum.

Kindly Step into the Vat--Try What You Have Devised against Others
In order *****ppress those who were against her, Wu Zetian, the empress of the Tang Dynasty (618-907), appointed a few merciless persons to be judges. Two of them were extremely brutal; one was called Zhou Xing and the other was called Lai Junchen. They killed many upright civil and military officials as well as ordinary people by framing up cases against tham and by administering inhuman corporal punishment to them.
Once, Wu Zetian received a letter which informed against Zhou Xing. The letter aside that Zhou Xing was plotting a rebellion in collaboration with others. Wu Zetian was furiously angry when she read the letter, and immediately ordered Lai Junchen to deal with the case severely. Hearing the order, Lai Junchen had misgivings about it. He knew that Zhou Xing could not be forced to tell the truth merely by using a letter informing against him because he was very sly and crafty. Lai Junchen also knew that he would not be for given if he should fail in dealing with the case, because the empress would certainly blame him and punish him. How could he solve the problem then? He turned the problem over and over in his mind, and finally thought out a "brilliant scheme".
Lai Junchen had a sumptuous feast prepared, and invited Zhou Xing to his home. The two of them urged each other to drink, and they talked while drinking. After the wine had gone round three times, Lai Junchen pretended to sigh, "When Ihandle cases in ordinary times, I often com across prisoners who stubbournly refuse to admit they are guilty. I wonder if you have any effetive measures." Hearing this, he took a sip of the wine. Lai Junchen immediately pretended to be very earnest, saying, "Oh, please do tell me at once." Smiling insidiously, Zhou Xing said, "Get a big vat, scorch it hot with charcoal fire all around, and then let the prisoner come into the vat. Will the prisoner fail to make a confession of his crime?" Hearing this. LaiJunchen nodded his head in approval repeatedly. He then ordered his subordinates to bring a big vat, and had a charcoal fire lit all around it as Zhou Xing had said.

Three decided to call the clansmen together to stage a rebellion. But the secret was divulged. Emperor Xuandi sent troops *****rround Hue''s home, and all the members of Hue''s family were executed. Commenting on the merits and demerits of Huo Guang, historian Ban Gu(32-92) said in "The Life of Huo Guang "in his History of the Han Dynasty that Huo Guang "had neither knowledge nor skill and did not understand the major principles". That is to say, Huo Guang did not understand the truths concerning the overall situation because he did not study and had no knowledge. The set phrase" having neither knowledge nor skill" is later used to refer to being ignorant and incompetent.
