Tang Xuanzong (Li Longji)'s Minister of War, Li Linfu, was not bad in terms of talent, with good handwriting and painting; but when he was an official, he did not do things honestly, but blindly accommodated and catered to Xuanzong's wishes.Not only that, he also used some improper methods to make friends with eunuchs and concubines who were trusted by Xuanzong.Therefore, he was very favored by Xuanzong, and he had been an official in the court for nineteen years.Li Linfu came into contact with ordinary people.In appearance, he always shows that he is very friendly and cooperative, and speaks all the nice and kind words that can be said.But in fact, his temperament is completely opposite to his superficial attitude; he is actually a very cunning and insidious person who often uses bad ideas to harm others.However, although the bad guys can sometimes achieve the purpose of harming others and commit treachery for a while, people will discover this hypocrisy after a long time, so everyone will say that he "has honey in his mouth and a sword in his belly" behind his back.That is: the mouth is sweet, but the sharp sword in the heart hurts others.

In the Tang Dynasty, there was also Li Yifu who was the Minister of Zhongshu. His usual actions and expressions were very honest and gentle; and no matter who he was talking to, he always grinned first, showing a very sincere and kind appearance.In fact, Di's heart is both mean and treacherous, and he often uses insidious tricks to harm others.After a long time, people also discovered his mask, and said behind his back that he "has a knife in his smile". People like Li Linfu and Li Yifu are very scary, because they also have duplicity in appearance, and if they are not careful, they will be deceived and victimized.Therefore, "mouth honey belly sword" is not only a good idiom, but also can be used as a warning for us to make friends.

Although "swords with sweet belly" and "sword hidden in a smile" come from two stories of two people, their meanings are the same. In my heart, I think of bad ideas to calculate and murder people.
