"Ye Gong Hao Long" originated from Liu Xiang's "New Preface - Miscellaneous Matters" in Han Dynasty.
"New Preface-Miscellaneous Matters" recorded: "Ye Gong Zigao is good at dragons, hooking to write dragons, chiseling to write dragons ...... is that Ye Gong is not good at dragons, but also good at those who seem to be dragons but are not dragons." During the Spring and Autumn and Warring States period, there was a man named Shen Zhu Liang, the word Zigao. Because the king of Chu granted the land of Ye to his father, and later he inherited his father's fief, people called him Ye Gong Zigao. He was very fond of dragons. When the dragon god in the sky heard that Duke Ye liked it so much, he planned to go and visit him. One day, dark clouds filled the sky, and in a short while, there was a loud clap of thunder, which turned out to be the Dragon God descending from the sky to visit Lord Ye. When its head just approached the window of Ye Gong's housing, its tail had already swung to the main hall. When Duke Ye saw the real dragon, he was so scared that he pulled his legs out and ran away. This shows that Ye Gong did not really like dragons.
Later, people used the phrase "Ye Gong likes dragons" as a metaphor for liking empty talk but not daring to face reality. Sometimes it also refers to a nominal love of a certain thing is actually not so.
