In the Tang Dynasty, there was a man named Liu Yuxi, who was excellent at reciting poems and writing articles. After he became a Jinshi, he worked as a supervisory official in Beijing; He was demoted to be the governor of Suzhou.During the tenure of the governor of Suzhou, there was a local man named Li Shen who had served as an official of Sikong. Because he was famous for admiring Liu Yuxi, he invited him to drink and invited several singing girls to accompany him at the banquet.In the drinking room, Liu Yuxi became very poetic for a while, so he wrote a poem like this: "A high bun with a new look on the temples, a spring breeze with Du Weiniang, it's commonplace to see messy things, and break the heart of Suzhou." The idiom is derived from Liu Yuxi's poem.The word Sikong used in this poem is the name of an official position in the Tang Dynasty, which is equivalent to Shangshu in the Qing Dynasty.From the perspective of Liu Yuxi's poem, the meaning of the whole idiom means that Li Sikong is used to such things, so he doesn't feel strange.

This is a very commonly used idiom, but many people still misuse it, because ordinary things, if they happen naturally, cannot quote this idiom.For example, in the morning, the sun rises from the east, and at dusk, the sun sets in the west, so it cannot be said to be "common".Some things happen by accident, and we often hear about it. The vehicles passing by on the streets of the metropolis are usually safe to see, but many times, accidents often happen, not because people are run over, Even if the car is damaged, we have seen too many such things, so it is appropriate to use the word "commonly seen".
