Interesting fact: What is the relationship between Guan Gong and jade?

Today’s topic of popularizing little-known jade knowledge is: Guan Gong and jade.

You may ask, what is the relationship between Guan Gong and jade? Could it be that the clothes Guan Gong wore were the same green as the jade?

Of course I am not so superficial. To talk about the relationship between Guan Gong and jade, I have to give you a riddle first:

Not Guan Yu, not the King of Chu. One fled to Maicheng, the other was killed at Wujiang.

I believe that smart friends can already guess the answer:

Jade!

Why jade? Let’s highlight the key points: The first sentence says it is not Guan Yu, nor is it the King of Chu. In other words, it is neither Guan Yu nor Xiang Yu. That is Fei Yu, Fei + Yu = Fei. The second sentence says that one fled to Maicheng and the other died at Wujiang. The escape from Maicheng refers to the time when Guan Yu was defeated and fled to Maicheng, where he was intercepted by a Wu general and then beheaded at Linju. The story of Xiang Yu committing suicide by slashing his own throat at the Wujiang River refers to the fact that Xiang Yu was defeated by Liu Bang in the Chu-Han War. He felt ashamed to face the people of Jiangdong, so he committed suicide by slashing his own throat at the Wujiang River. Both Yu died, which means they were Yu Zu. Yu+zu=cui.

So, the answer is jade!

There are many interesting little riddles about jade, such as this one:

Xi, Xi, 丶, yi, ren, ren, shi, when put together, it forms the character Cui.

I wonder how many people can guess the next one?

China's treasure is the treasure of treasures

The answer is: Jade

There is a jade in the middle of the Chinese character “国” (country), and there is also a jade under the character “宝” (treasure), so the treasure of China and the treasure of treasures are both jade.

Are you, like me, impressed by the wisdom of the general public?
