Story:
In the late Northern Wei Dynasty, the regime fractured into Western Wei and Eastern Wei. Gao Huan and his son wielded significant military and political power in Eastern Wei.
Cui Xian, an official renowned for his integrity and incorruptibility, was deeply loyal to Gao Huan. He often submitted memorials to impeach corrupt officials, leading to their imprisonment one by one.
Gao Huan was extremely pleased by this. He praised Cui Xian for daring 'to charge forward and storm enemy positions' (冲锋陷阵), acting without any personal bias, which significantly strengthened the strictness and impartiality of the national administration.
