Yan Zi was sent to Chu.

Yan Zi went to the State of Chu. The Chu people wanted to insult him, because he was short, so they specially opened a small door next to the city gate and invited Yan Zi in. Yan Zi said: Only people who go to the dog country can go in through the dog hole. Today, I was sent to Chu. I don't think I entered the city through this door. The Chu people had to divert their attention and ask Yan Zi to enter through the city gate.

Yan Zi visited the King of Chu. The king of Chu said, I'm afraid there is no one in Qi. Yan Zi replied: Linzi, the capital of Qi, has more than 7,000 families. People are close to each other, shoulder to shoulder. Spreading sleeves can cover the sun and sweat all over the world. How can you say that there is no one? The king of Chu said, in that case, why should you be sent as a special envoy? Yan Zi replied, "Qi sent messengers for different purposes. The wise sent him to visit the wise monarch, and the incompetent sent him to visit the incompetent monarch. I am the most incompetent person, so I have to send him to Chu. The king of Chu was embarrassed immediately.
