Origin Story

话说当年，秦始皇横征暴敛，百姓民不聊生。张三是一个正直不阿的读书人，他目睹了百姓的苦难，心中充满了义愤。他夜不能寐，常常对着星空，痛斥秦始皇的暴政，字字泣血，声声震天。他的义愤填膺，溢于言表，让周围的人都感受到他内心的悲痛与愤怒。他决心为民请命，哪怕粉身碎骨也在所不惜。他写了一篇慷慨激昂的奏折，直言不讳地指出了秦始皇的罪行，希望能够引起朝廷的重视，为百姓谋求福祉。然而，他的奏折却石沉大海，没有得到任何回应。张三的义愤并没有因此而消退，反而更加强烈。他继续为百姓奔走呼号，用自己的行动来表达他对正义的追求。最终，他的行为感动了无数的人，也为后世留下了深刻的教训。

Once upon a time, in ancient China, an emperor ruled with great cruelty, imposing heavy taxes and exploiting the common people. Zhang San, a righteous scholar, witnessed the suffering and injustice around him. His heart burned with righteous indignation. Sleepless nights were spent lamenting the emperor's tyranny, his cries echoing into the heavens. His indignation was palpable, his pain and fury evident to all who knew him. He resolved to speak out, determined to petition the emperor for his people’s relief. He wrote a powerful and impassioned document directly addressing the emperor's crimes, hoping to bring about change. Sadly, his plea went unanswered, his words ignored. Zhang San's righteous anger only grew. He continued his fight for the people, using his voice and actions to fight for justice. Ultimately, his actions inspired many and continue to serve as a reminder of the importance of standing up against injustice.
