At the confluence of the Tao River and the Yellow River in Liujiaxia, Gansu, guess which river is the Yellow River.

Jing Wei is clearly an idiom, derived from natural landscapes. The Wei River is the largest tributary of the Yellow River, and the Jing River is the largest tributary of the Wei River, when the Jing River and the Wei River meet in the northern suburbs of the ancient city of Xi'an, due to the different sand content, it presents a peculiar landscape of clear water and turbidity, and the clear water and turbid water flow with each other are incompatible with each other, forming a very obvious boundary. Later generations used the turbidity of the water of the Jing River when it flowed into the Wei River as a metaphor for the clear or unclear boundaries between clear and non-distinct, and also used as a metaphor for the turbidity of human character, and as a metaphor for two completely different attitudes towards the same thing.

Weishui is the largest tributary of the Yellow River, originating in Weiyuan, Gansu Province, and flowing into the Yellow River through ShaanxiJingshui is a tributary of the Wei River, originating in Ningxia. The two waters meet in Chuanzhang Village, Gaoling County, Xi'an City. "The distinction is clear"This well-known idiom originates from the confluence of the two rivers of Jing and Wei. It is said that at the intersection of Jingshui and Weishui, the turbidity is clear, and the boundary is clear and not mixed, which is used as a metaphor for clear boundaries.

With the northward movement of the southeast monsoon in summer, the rainfall increases everywhere it goes, and the Jing River is located on the north bank of the Wei River, so the Wei River enters the flood season first, so the Jing River is clear and the Wei River is turbid;When the southeast monsoon moves north to the Jing River, the Jing River is turbid and the Wei River is clear.
