Origin Story
话说北魏末年，国家分裂成西魏和东魏。东魏权臣高欢，素来赏识一位名叫崔暹的清廉正直的官员。崔暹敢于直言上谏，弹劾贪官污吏，为高欢所倚重。一次，高欢在与西魏作战时，亲临战场，冲锋陷阵，指挥若定，最终取得了胜利。战后，高欢对崔暹说："你平时敢于直言进谏，如同在战场上冲锋陷阵一样，为国尽忠，我很欣赏你。"
In the late Northern Wei Dynasty, the country was divided into Western Wei and Eastern Wei. Gao Huan, the powerful minister of Eastern Wei, always appreciated an official named Cui Xian, who was known for his integrity and honesty. Cui Xian dared to speak out openly, impeaching corrupt officials, and was highly valued by Gao Huan. Once, when Gao Huan was fighting against Western Wei, he personally went to the battlefield, leading the charge, commanding the troops calmly, and ultimately winning the battle. After the war, Gao Huan said to Cui Xian: "You usually dare to speak out and make suggestions, just like you are charging into battle at the front lines, loyal to your country. I admire you very much."
