In order to force him to come out to meet him, Duke Wen of Jin ordered the mountain to be set on fire. Jie Zitui refused to come out and was eventually burned to death. Duke Wen of Jin was grateful for his loyal minister's determination, so he buried him in Mianshan, built a shrine and a temple for him, and ordered that no fire be burned and only cold food be eaten on the day of Jie Zitui's death to express his grief.
