Author's source: "Confucius's Family Language" and "Historical Records of the Hou Family".
Confucius once said: "Good medicine is bitter for the mouth, but good for disease; Advice is contrary to the ear, but good to the deed. Later generations often used this phrase.
However, it is said that Liu Bang and Xiang Yu each raised troops against Qin, and the army was growing stronger, and the rebel troops led by Xiang Yu surrounded and annihilated the main force of the Qin army, Zhang Han's troops, in Hebei. Liu Bang's troops took advantage of the situation to advance westward, drove straight in, and conquered Xianyang, the capital of Qin.
Liu Bang led the army into the court of the Qin Dynasty, but when he saw that the palace was splendid, the curtains were gorgeous and dazzling, there were countless treasures, and the beauties were like clouds. When the general Fan Hao heard about this, he immediately objected and tried his best to dissuade him, hoping that Liu Bang would not be greedy for glory and wealth. At the moment, Liu Bang's face was so ugly.
The strategist Zhang Liang saw it in his eyes and said angrily: "It is only because the King of Qin is greedy and loses the hearts of the people that the righteous army has today's victory." Since we have rid the world of tyrants, we should get rid of his extravagance and profligacy, and advocate frugality.
Now that you have just entered the Qin Palace, you want to enjoy yourself like the King of Qin, isn't it 'aiding and abusive'? General Fan's words are words of advice. 'Advice is good for the ears and good for the deeds, and good medicine is good for the mouth and good for the sick'.
May your opinion General Fan. ”
Liu Bang accepted the admonition of Fan Hao and Zhang Liang, so he sealed all the treasures and treasury of the Qin Palace. The troops withdrew outside the city. Then he made three chapters with the fathers and elders of Guanzhong, which won the support of the people of Guanzhong.

Good medicine is good for disease, and good advice is good for action, from "Historical Records: Liuhou Family".
Pei Gong Liu Bang's 100,000 righteous army broke through the pass, defeated the defenders of the Qin Dynasty Pass in Lantian, led the world's righteous army, and successfully entered Xianyang. After entering the Xianyang Palace of the Qin Dynasty, Pei Gong Liu Bang was attracted by the beautiful and precious things in the palace, and he got carried away and was ready to stay in the Qin Palace to have a good time. His brother-in-law Fan Xu persuaded him, but he also did not listen.
At this time, Zhang Liang entered the palace and gave a direct admonition, and severely counted Liu Bang down, explaining his mistake in doing so, and said something like this: "Good medicine is good for disease, and good advice is good for action, please Pei Gong listen to Fan Xuyan." Only then did Pei Gong reluctantly leave the Qin Palace, announcing that the army would leave the city and camp obediently in Bashang, on the outskirts of Xianyang, and not allow the people to be disturbed.
