The student got the idea form an well-known Chinese old story of “carrying a rod and asking to be spanked”. In the story, Lin Xiangru is a politician of the Warring States period. Old general Lian Po was jealous of his success and swore enmity with him. Lin decided not to confront Lian and said, the feud between him and Lian Po is a personal one and he cannot let his personal life ruin the kingdom!" When Lian Po heard of this, all his hatred turned into shame. Deciding to apologize to Lin, he strapped brambles to his bare back and walked from his house to that of Lin Xiangru's, begging for his forgiveness.
