　　不敢越雷池一步
　　bù gǎn yuè léi chí yī bù
　　出处：《晋书·庾亮传》：“亮并不听，而报温峤书曰：‘吾忧西陲过于历阳，足下无过雷池一步也。’”
　　释义：雷池：在今安徽望江县南，池水源自大雷水，东入长江。“不敢越雷池一步”，意思是不敢超越一定的界限，多指保守、拘泥；也有作“不得越雷池一步”的，意思好似不准超越规定的范围，多指压制、束缚。
　　成语典故：
　　东晋成帝时，庾亮任中书令，执朝政。他为了防备西部边境的敌人侵犯，推荐温峤到江州（今江西九江）做官，加强防务。温峤上任不久，庾亮得到了历阳太守苏峻企图谋反的报告。原来苏峻纠集亡命之徒，早就蠢蠢欲动了。庾亮自作聪明，想骗苏峻离开历阳，到京都建康（今江苏南京）来做大司农。大臣们都以为这办法不妥，温峤也写信给庾亮劝阻，但庾亮不听。苏峻果然非但不愿到京都去，反而由此看出朝廷对自己起了疑心，于是造起反来，发兵攻向京都。温峤得知苏峻反叛，立即号召部下将士，秣马厉兵，打算从水路进入建康，护卫都城。庾亮对于苏峻叛兵估计不足，写信给温峤说：“吾忧西陲过于历阳，足下无过雷池一步也。”（意思是我担心西镜的敌人更甚于苏峻叛兵，你务必留在原地，不要越过雷池到京都来）庾亮叫温峤“无过雷池一步”，在战略上是错误的。苏峻攻势凶猛，很快逼近建康，庾亮指挥晋军迎战，被杀得大败，京都失陷。心怀内疚的庾亮投奔温峤。温峤并不责怪，请他守卫白石的营垒，自己则加紧操练水军，准备与苏峻叛军决一死战。苏峻派了一万步兵，从四面包围白石，拼命攻打，庾亮手下只有两千人，渐渐支持不住。庾亮身先士卒，奋不顾身地挥刀猛冲。晋军受到激励，愈战愈勇，终于杀退了叛军。庾亮见叛军败退，大喝一声，率晋军冲出营垒，紧紧追击，斩杀数百名敌人，获得大胜。最后，庾亮、温峤等人终于杀掉苏峻，平定叛乱，弥补了因“无过雷池一步”战略错误而造成的损失。
　　成语典故: 越：跨过；雷池：湖名，在安徽省望江县南。原指不要越过雷池。后比喻不敢超越一定的范围和界限。
　　成语出处: 晋·庾亮《报温峤书》：“吾忧西陲，过于历阳，足下无过雷池一步也。”
　　例句: 是用来批评那些已经学习了很多却“不敢越雷池一步”、在艺术手法上陈陈相因的人们的。（秦牧《独创一格》）
