We can infer that the death of Confucius’ son, Carp is ironic, he suffered an early death when the symbolism of the carp fish is longevity, because carps can get very old, it also represents the dragons due to big scales on the body of a carp. According to the meaning of the carp Confucius’ son, Carp, should have a long live which did not happen.
