!! I'm watching the second season of The Fearless now, and this chengyu came up in the episode I watched directly before you posted this! (I figured it was probably a chengyu from the English subs, but hadn't heard it before and definitely didn't expect to open Dreamwidth and immediately see it again. XD)

Ahhh, yes! I was just thinking I'd encountered 卸磨杀驴 to get rid of somebody no longer useful (lit. to kill the donkey after the milling) recently but couldn't place the show.
