Yuan, Kaizhi, Zhong Hua, Xuanhui, Cihe, and the wing of the Duke of Zhou were kings, so they could live in Liuhe and Xianning.

One day, the official department's senior minister made a speech and invited Guan Ju to his house for divination. Deng Kui, the official department's senior minister, was also present.

Yanhe said to Guan Yu: "Please calculate, do I have a chance to rise to these three high positions?" Also, I often dream of dozens of green flies flying under my nose recently. I don't know what the omen is. " After listening to a set of moral principles, Guan Ju told Yanhe that as long as you follow the actions of ancient sages, you can be ranked among the three, and the green fly can be fired immediately.
