The bedtime story of red face and white face

In real life or work and study, everyone is familiar with bedtime stories. The following is my carefully arranged bedtime story of red face and white face. Welcome to share.

We often hear a sentence in our life, that is, "red face, bad face." What do you mean by red face and bad face? Take a look at this story.

There is a county magistrate who is most afraid of thinking about the case. When he arrived at the imperial court, he asked people, "Which one of you is a good man? Who is the bad guy? " How ridiculous.

One day, the magistrate was tired of hearing the case and asked touts to accompany him to the theatre. Some people painted red faces and some painted white faces on the stage. The county magistrate shouted impatiently, "Who is a good man?" Who's the bad guy? "

Bao inquired and explained, "Sir, the red face is a good person and the white face is a bad person."

"So that's it!" The county magistrate suddenly had a brainwave. "Then, master, please help me write a notice: all good people will be painted red; All the bad guys are painted as white faces. So I won't be confused when I hear the case. "

Of course, touts dare not refuse to do so. No sooner had the notice been posted than there was a robbery-the red pigment in the dye house was taken away by thieves. At that time, a troupe nearby was taking off makeup after the play. When they saw the shouts, a man with a big face ran out and caught the thief. A thief who ran slowly was caught by big face and sent to the county magistrate for punishment.

When the magistrate saw it, he pointed to the thief and said, "You are a good man." The thief painted his face red with stolen red paint. The magistrate pointed to the big face and said, "You are a bad person." Dahua painted his face white in today's play. "Somebody, lock up the bad guys!" So the tattoo went to prison.

What about the thief? He stuffed the county magistrate's pipe into his arms and walked away casually.

When touts came back from outside, the county magistrate told touts what had just happened. The master was in distress situation: "Sir, the person who took your tobacco pouch is obviously a bad person. How did you let him go? "

"But," the county magistrate said awkwardly, "that man is red-faced."

"Cough!" I'm anxious to ask questions. "He must be a bad guy. What about his red face!"

The magistrate thought for a moment, nodded slightly, and ordered a new notice to be posted: all red faces are regarded as bad people, and all white faces as good people.

In this way, Big Face was released from prison.

At this moment, however, there was a second robbery in the dye house-all the white pigments were taken away by thieves. Dahua happened to bump into the thief who was successfully caught. There is nothing to be polite about. The big face tied the thief up. However, Dahua thought about it, but this time he was not busy giving the thief to the county magistrate, so he was taken to the troupe first. Dahua Dai wiped the white paint off the thief's face and painted his head with thick red paint-otherwise, the thief will be released by the county magistrate in the future!
