National Teacher Zhong asked the imperial attendant Zilin, "Where do you come from?"
"He replied, "From Chengnan."
The National Teacher then asked a page boy, "What color is the grass in Chengnan?"
The boy said, "Yellow."
The National Teacher said, "Even this boy could be awarded a purple robe and talk of mysticism to the emperor too!"
...
What's the secret principle here? Is "yellow" supposed to shut down thought? If yes, then how so?
