[quote=ZOEY,260444]No.1 害群之马 (Hai 4 Qun 2 Zhi 1 Ma 3). It means' a black sheep or pets in society'. History: About 4 thousand years ago, Huangdi (the Yellow Emperor) , the first ruler of China in legend paid a visit to one of his old friends living in countryside accompanied by his officials. On his way to his friend's home, they met a boy who kept a herd of horses. Then Huangdi asked the boy if he knew the way to his friend's village. The boy said yes and told him how to get there. Huangdi asked again:" Do you know my friend?" The boy told Huangdi that he knew his friend. Having asked several questions, the boy answered all. Then Huangdi asked the boy:" Do you know how to rule a country?" The boy answered:" It is similar with keeping a herd of horses. You just need to drive away the wild horses from the herd." Inspired by what the boy said, Huangdi got some idea on ruling his country.[/quote]
