What is Liu Xiahui, what is Dengtuizi

Liu Xiahui (720 B.C.-621 B.C.), whose real name was Zhan Yu (展获), his character Ziqiu (一字季), and his posthumous name Hui (惠), was honored with the title "Liu Xiahui" (柳下惠), or "Wo Sheng Liusha Hui" (和圣柳下惠) because of his fiefdom in the lower part of Liu Xia (柳下下). He was honored as "Liu Xiahui" or "He Sheng Liu Xiahui". He was born in Liuxia Eup, a vassal state of Lu during the Zhou Dynasty, which is now Pingyin Xiazhi Town in Shandong Province. He was an ancient Chinese thinker, politician and educator.

Liu Xiahui was a model of traditional Chinese morality, and his story of "sitting on the fence" has been widely publicized. In the Spring and Autumn period, Liu Xiahui of the state of Lu wrapped a frozen woman in his arms without committing an indecent act.

Dengtu Zi, surnamed Dengtu (登徒子), is known as Dengtu Zi (登徒子好色赋), written by Song Yu (宋玉), who was a writer of the state of Chu during the Warring States period. It is not known if he really existed, but he may have been a fictional character in literature only. Because of this article, people take Dengtu Zi as a representative of the horny people.

In "Dengtu Zi's Lustful Fugue", Dengtu Zi told the king of Chu about Song Yu, saying that Song Yu was handsome and lustful, and asked the king of Chu not to let Song Yu go in and out of the harem.

The king of Chu questioned Song Yu about this, and Song Yu argued that his good looks had benefited from the gods, but that he was not a womanizer. The king of Chu asked Song Yu to give an explanation, so Song Yu said that the daughter of his neighbor to the east was a beautiful woman, and often climbed the wall to seduce Song Yu, but Song Yu was not moved, so he was not lustful.

Song Yu then turned the tables on Dengtu Zi, saying that Dengtu Zi's wife was ugly and unkempt by comparison, while Dengtu Zi was able to have five children in a row, which is why Dengtu Zi was more lustful.
