The yellow turban insurrectionary uprising at the end of Han Dynasty caused great chaos in the world. Cao Cao sat in the imperial court, and Sun Quan supported Dongwu. Liu Bei, the imperial clan of the Han Dynasty, heard from Xu Shu and Si Mahui that Zhuge Liang was very knowledgeable and talented, so he came to Wolong (now in the west of Nanyang, Henan Province, and southwest of Xiangyang, Hubei Province) with gifts, and asked Zhuge Liang to come out to help. It happened that Zhuge Liang was out that day, so Liu Bei had to turn back in disappointment. Soon, Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei braved the snowstorm and invited them for the second time. Unexpectedly, Zhuge Liang went out for a walk again. Zhang Fei doesn't want to come again. Seeing that Zhuge Liang was not at home, he urged him to go back. Liu Bei had to leave a letter expressing his admiration for Zhuge Liang and asking him to come out of the mountain to help him save the country's crisis. After a while, Liu Bei was a vegetarian for three days and was ready to invite Zhuge Liang again. Guan Yu said that Zhuge Liang may have a hollow reputation, but he may not have real talent and learning, so he doesn't have to go. Zhang Fei, on the other hand, advocated that he should make a phone call alone and tie it up with a rope when he didn't come. Liu Bei scolded Zhang Fei and went to visit Zhuge Liang with them for the third time. At this time, Zhuge Liang was sleeping. Liu Bei dare not disturb him. He stood until Zhuge Liang woke up and sat down to talk to each other.

Zhuge Liang saw that Liu Bei was interested in doing things for the country and sincerely asked him for help, so he came out to help Liu Bei establish the Han Shu Dynasty.

The Romance of the Three Kingdoms called Liu Bei's three invitations to Zhuge Liang "three visits to the cottage". Zhuge Liang also said in the famous "Teacher's List" that "the first emperor had no intention of being a minister, but he was self-defeating and took care of his ministers in the grass." So when the world saw someone go to that person's home several times in a row and asked the person he admired to come out and help him, he quoted this sentence to describe his desire and sincere mood. That is to say, I am not ashamed to ask questions, and I am open-minded to seek talents. In the 12th year of Jian 'an (207), when Zhuge Liang was 27 years old, Liu Bei visited the Caotang in Longzhong, Nanyang, and met Zhuge Liang. Zhuge Liang brilliantly analyzed the situation at that time, and put forward the strategic idea of seizing Jing and Yi as a base, reforming politics at home, uniting with Sun Quan abroad, appeasing Yi Yue in the south, waiting for an opportunity, dividing the troops into two northern expeditions and unifying the whole country.

The original romance of the three kingdoms

Liu Bei is arranging gifts and wants to visit Zhuge Liang in Longzhong. Suddenly someone reported, "There is a gentleman outside the door who looks very good. I came to visit him." Liu Bei said, "Is this Zhuge Liang?" So I got dressed and went out to see you. But Si Mahui also saw it. Liu Bei was overjoyed, went into the backyard and sat high. He bowed and said, "Take care. I missed my visit because of my military affairs. It's a great comfort to admire you now. " Hui said, "I heard it was here, so I came for a while." Liu Bei said, "Recently, Cao Cao imprisoned his mother. It seems that she sent someone to read the book and sent him back to Xuchang." Hui said, "This is Cao Cao's plan! I have always heard that Xu's mother is the most virtuous. Although imprisoned by Cao Cao, she won't call her son. This book will deceive people. Yuan can't walk straight, his mother is still there; If I go today, my mother will die! " Liu Bei was surprised to ask him why, and Hui said, "Xu's mother is noble and righteous, and she will be ashamed to see her son." Liu Bei said, "With Yuan Zhi gone, I recommend Zhuge Liang to be in Nanyang. What about him? " Hui smiled and said, "If you want to go, he will go by himself. Why did you let him out sick? " Liu Bei said, "Why did Sir say that?" Hui said, "I am close friends with Buring Cui, Yingchuan, Runan Meng and others. These four people are all committed to cleanliness, and only Kong Ming understands it. I tried to recite the scriptures with my knees in my arms, but I meant four people. I said, "A public official can go to the secretariat and guard the county. When asked what his ambition was, Kong Ming just smiled. Every time I compare myself with Guan Zhong and Le Yi, I can't measure it. " Liu Bei said, "He Ying Chuan is so talented! Hui said, "In the past, I was good at observing astronomy, saying that the stars gathered in Yingfen, and there were many sages in the earth. "Yun Chang said aside:" I heard that Guan Zhong and Le Yi were celebrities in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and their contributions spread all over the world; Is it too much for Kong Ming to compare himself with these two men? " Hui smiled and said, "In my opinion, it is inappropriate to compare these two people; I want to give it to two other people. " Yun Chang asked, "What about those two? Hui said, "This is comparable to Jiang Ziya in 800 and in 400." . "Everyone got a fright. The emblem of the next stage is ready to go, but Liu Bei can't keep it. Hui smiled and said, "Although Wolong has its owner, it is a pity that it is out of date!" Having said that, I drifted away. Liu Bei sighed, "What a hermit! "

The next day, Liu Bei came to Longzhong with Guan, Zhang and others. Looking at a few people on the hillside, lotus hoe plowed in the field and sang: "The sky is like a round cover, and the ground is like a chess game; The world is divided into black and white, and people fight for honor and disgrace: those who honor feel at ease and those who insult are mediocre. Nanyang has seclusion and lack of sleep! " Hearing this song, Liu Bei bridled the reins, called the farmer and asked, "Who wrote this song?" Answer: "Mr. Wolong did it." Liu Bei said, "Where does Mr. Wolong live?" The farmer said, "From then on, Shan Zhinan and Gorkon became Wollongong. The thatched cottage in the forest in front of the mountain, that is, Mr. Zhuge lies high. " Liu Bei thanked him and continued riding. After walking a few miles, I looked at Wollongong in the distance, and sure enough, the scenery was unusual. Later generations had an ancient style and a single way of living in Wolong. The poem says: "Twenty miles west of Wancheng, there is flowing water in Gorkon pillow: Gorkon bends down the roots of clouds, and flowing water flies;" If the situation is trapped on the dragon stone, it is shaped like a single phoenix pine in the shade; Chai Men half-mask, some can't afford to lie down. Repair the green screen of bamboo rafts, and the flowers in the four seasons fall wild; The deposits on the bedside are yellow, and there is no Ding Bai on the seat; Knock on the door to send fruit, and the old crane at the door listens to the scriptures at night; The famous piano in the bag contains ancient brocade, and the seven-star wall is hung on the sword. Mr. Lu Zhong is quiet and elegant. In his spare time, he cultivates crops personally: only when the spring thunder wakes up from his dream, he will scream and be safe in the world. " Liu Bei came to the front of the villa, dismounted and knocked on Chai Men. A child asked questions. Liu Bei said, "General Han Zuo has led Liu Bei, an animal husbandry uncle in Yuzhou, to visit." The boy said, "I can't remember many names." Liu Bei said, "You only said that Liu Bei was visiting. The boy said, "Sir, you seldom go out this morning." Liu Bei said, "Where have you been? The boy said, "This road is uncertain. I don't know where to go." . "Liu Bei said," When will you come back? " The boy said, "the return date is uncertain, or three or five days, or ten days." Xuande was very disconsolate. Zhang Fei said, "Since I haven't seen you, I'll go home like this." Liu Bei said, "Just wait a little longer." Yun Chang said, "Why don't you go home and send someone to inquire? Liu Bei obeyed him and told the boy, "If Mr. Liu comes back, Liu Bei can visit him. "Then I got on my horse and walked for a few miles. I reined in and watched the scenery in Longzhong. Sure enough, this mountain is not high, nor beautiful and elegant. The land is not wide and uneven, and the forest is small and lush; Apes and cranes meet and they become friends with each other. While I was watching, I suddenly saw a man, handsome and handsome, wearing a free and unfettered towel, a soap robe and crutches, coming from a mountain path. Liu Bei said, "This must be Mr. Wolong!" He quickly dismounted to salute and asked, "Sir, isn't this Wolong?" The man said, "Who is the general?" Liu Bei said, "Liu Bei also." The man said, "I'm not, but my friend Cui." Liu Bei said, "I've heard a lot about you. Nice to meet you." . I ask for the right to sit on the spot and ask for a word. "Two people sitting on a stone in the forest, guan and zhang stood on one side. Zhou Ping said, "Why does the general want to see Kong Ming? "Liu Bei said," There is chaos in the world today, and there are clouds everywhere. I want to see Kong Ming and ask for advice from Guotai Min 'an. " Zhou Ping said with a smile, "Although the public is kind, it is impermanent to control chaos since ancient times. Since the high-impedance snake-cutting uprising, there is no way to punish Qin, which is also to control chaos; In the world of sorrow, joy and peace for two hundred years, peace is long, Wang Mang usurps the inverse, and chaos is caused by governance; Rejuvenate the martial arts, rectify the foundation, and return to the chaos; Today, the people have been in peace for a long time, so the war has resumed: this is the time to control the chaos, and Fukashi is also. The general wants Kong Ming to mediate between heaven and earth and repair Gan Kun, but it is not easy to do so, and it will only take a lot of effort. Don't you smell that people who adapt to the weather are escaping, and those who go against the sky are working hard; Where is the number, you can't take it away; Where is life, people can't be strong? " Liu Bei said, "What you said is very sincere. But as a Han Zhou, he should help the Han family. How dare he entrust his number and life? " His drought-striken fields said, "Shan Ye's husband is not enough to talk about what's going on in the world. He is suitable for asking questions in public, so he talks nonsense. " Liu Bei said, "Mr Meng is a teacher. But I want to know where Kong Ming has gone? " Zhou Ping said, "I also want to visit it, and I don't know where it is going." Liu Bei said, "Would you please come with me to our county?" Zhou Ping said, "Stupidity is quite idle, and I have no intention of becoming famous for a long time; Let me see you another day. "Say that finish, I will go away. Liu Bei rode with Guan and Zhang. Zhang Fei said, "Kong Ming can't visit again, but he met this pedant and talked for a long time!" Liu Bei said, "This is also a hermit's word. "

The three returned to Xinye, and a few days later, Liu Bei sent someone to spy on Zhuge Liang. The report said, "Mr. Wolong is back." Xuande taught to prepare horses. Zhang Fei said, "Measure a village. Why do you need your brother to go by himself? You can have someone call you. " Liu Bei said angrily, "You haven't heard that Meng Ziyun wants to see the sage instead of his way, but you still want to go in and close the door?" Kong Ming is the great sage in the world, how can he be called! "So he rode his horse to visit Kongming. Guan and Zhang are neck and neck. It was the middle of winter, the weather was cold and the clouds were thick. After traveling for countless miles, suddenly the north wind blew fiercely, and the snow and rain were raining: the mountains were like jade clusters, and the forests were like silver makeup. Zhang Fei said, "It's freezing, and we haven't used troops yet. How can we expect a useless person? Might as well go back to Xinye for shelter from the wind and snow. Liu Bei said, "I want Kong to know my hospitality. If the younger generation is afraid of the cold, you can go back first. " Fei said, "I'm not afraid of the cold when I'm dead! But I'm afraid my brother will be worried. " Liu Bei said, "Don't say anything, just come with me. "Near the cabin, I suddenly heard someone singing in a roadside hotel. Liu Bei listened at once. His song said: "The name of a strong man has not yet been achieved, and it has been a long time since we met in Yangchun! You see that people in the East China Sea don't talk about Jingzhen, and then the car approaches King Wen; Eight hundred princes met unexpectedly, and white fish got on the boat and waded into Jin Meng; Konoha bled in World War I and was crowned as a warrior. Levin drinkers were not seen in the drafting process, and they were long and accurate; Talking about Wang Ba's amazing ears, dropping out of school and sitting on Qin Yingfeng; There are seventy-two cities in the east, and no one in the world can follow. The advantages of the two are still the same. Who wants to talk about heroes so far? "After a break, another man knocked on the table and sang. His song said: "My emperor raised his sword to clear the sea and started his business in 400 years;" "Huan ling season, fire, moral decay, treacherous court official and traitors in the best position. The green snake flew down from the throne and saw the demon rainbow descending to the Jade Hall. Thieves gather like ants everywhere, and adulterers are young forever. We clapped our hands in the air and went to the village shop to drink village wine. If you are good at it, why become an immortal! "

They sang, clapped their hands and laughed. Liu Bei said, "Wolong is here!" So I dismounted and went into the shop. See two people drinking at the same table: the first one has a white face and a long beard, and the first one looks strange and ancient. Liu Bei bowed and asked, "Who is Mr. Wolong Ergong?" The bearded man said, "Who are you? What do you want with Wolong? " Liu Bei said, "One of them is Liu Bei. I'm going to visit my husband and seek skills to save the world and people. " Beard said, "We are not Wolong, but friends of Wolong. I am Yingchuan, and this is Runan Meng. " Liu Bei was overjoyed. "I've heard so much about you, and I've come to meet you. Now that the companion horse is here, I dare ask you two gentlemen to go to Wolong Village for a talk. " Guangyuan said, "We are all lazy people in Shan Ye. We don't care about governing the country and the people, and we are too lazy to ask. Please get on the horse and swim in Wolong. "

Liu Bei resigned from them and mounted a horse to join Wollongong. Dismount in front of the villa, lock the door and ask the boy, "Is Mr. Wang in the villa today?" The boy said, "Now study in class." Liu Bei was overjoyed and followed the boy in. When I arrived at the middle gate, I saw a big book on the door, saying, "Indifferent ambition. Quiet and far-reaching. " Liu Bei was watching in the room when he suddenly heard the sound of chanting. He stood by the door and peeped out. On the thatched cottage, a teenager hugged his knees and sang, "Phoenix is flying thousands of miles, not on the road;" Master is on one side, not the Lord. I am willing to work hard in Longmu, I love my house; I am proud of the piano book and wait for the weather. "

Liu Bei, waiting for his song, went to the thatched cottage to salute and said, "I have been longing for Mr. Liu for a long time and have no chance to meet each other." Yesterday, due to Xu Yuan's direct recommendation, I went to Xianzhuang, but I didn't return empty-handed. I came here in a snowstorm today. I am really lucky to have a good prospect. " The young man quickly replied, "It's General Liu Yuzhou. Who wants to see my brother?" Liu Bei was surprised and said, "Sir, isn't this Wolong?" The boy said, "One is Zhuge Jun, the younger brother of Wolong. Three silly brothers: eldest brother Zhu Gejin, now a guest in Jiangdong Sun Zhongmou; Kong Ming is the second brother. " Liu Bei said, "Is Wolong at home now?" They all said, "I made an appointment with Cui Zhouping yesterday, so I came out for a walk." Liu Bei said, "Where can I wander?" They all said, "You can go boating in the rivers and lakes, you can visit the monks and priests in the mountains, you can find friends in the villages, and you can play the piano and play chess in the abode of fairies and immortals: I don't know where to go." Liu Bei's life is so shallow that he has never met the Great Sage twice. They all said, "Don't sit down and offer tea." Zhang Fei said, "Sir, please get on the horse." Liu Bei said, "Since I'm here, why don't you come back without saying a word?" He asked Zhuge Jun, "I heard that your brother Mr. Wolong is very familiar with military tactics and reads military books every day. Can you hear me? " They all said, "I don't know." Zhang Fei said, "Ask him! It's snowing hard, so it's better to go home early. " Xuande rebuked it. They all said, "I dare not stay long without my brother." Rongri will return the gift. " Liu Bei said, "How dare you hope to drive in vain? Prepare to come back in a few days. I would like to borrow pen and paper to make a book and leave it for your brother to show Liu Bei's hospitality. " They all entered Four Treasures of the Study. Liu Bei opened the frozen pen, brushed the cloud paper, and wrote a book, saying, "I long for a long time to achieve high fame. I have been there twice, but I have never returned empty-handed. What a disappointment! " I thought about the Miao people in the Han Dynasty, talked about the famous ministers, and saw the imperial tombs. Discipline collapsed, the country was in chaos, and the evil party bullied the monarch, which made me heartbroken. Although there is Kuang Ji's sincerity, there is no economic strategy. Looking up to Mr. Wang's kindness and loyalty, he generously showed his great talent and gave his ovary a big strategy. The world is lucky! The country is lucky! Give you this cloth first, and then let me fast and take a bath, especially to worship my face. Xi tong Jian yuan "Liu Bei wrote it, handed it to ZhuGeJun, accepted it, and said goodbye and went out. They were all sent out, and Liu Bei repeatedly saluted and said goodbye. Just as he got on his horse and was about to leave, he saw the boy waving outside the fence and shouting, "Here comes the old man." When Liu Bei looked intently, he saw a man riding a donkey, wearing a warm hat and fox fur on the west side of the bridge, followed by a child in Tsing Yi, carrying a gourd of wine and stepping on the snow. Turn the bridge and recite poems. The poem says, "The north wind is cold all night, and Wan Liyun is thick. The snow in the sky is floating around, changing the past. Look at the fire on his back, it is empty, and it is suspected that Yulong is fighting. Flying in proportion, all over the universe in an instant. Riding a donkey across a small bridge, sighing that plum blossoms are fragrant! Liu Bei heard this song and said, "This is really Wolong!" He dismounted from his saddle, stepped forward to salute and said, "It's not easy to catch cold, sir! Liu Bei has been waiting for a long time! " The man quickly got off the donkey and answered.

Zhuge Jun said at the back: "This is not my brother Wolong, but my brother's father-in-law Huang Chengyan." Liu Bei said, "The words sung at the right time are wonderful." Cheng Yan said, "I have seen" Song of Fu Liang "at my husband's house, and I remember this song; When crossing a small bridge, I occasionally see plum blossoms falling between hedges, so I feel it and recite it. I didn't expect it to be for VIPs. " Liu Bei said, "Have you seen your husband?" Cheng Yan said, "Even the old people came to see him." Hearing this, Liu Bei said goodbye to Katsuhiko and rode back. When the snow is heavy, I look back at Wollongong and feel embarrassed. Later generations have poems praising Xuande's tour of Kongming. The poem reads: "One day, I visited a virtuous man in a snowstorm, but I felt sad because I had no freedom. Frozen creek bridge slides rocks, pommel horse cold invades far away. When pear flower falls was in power, his face was covered with catkins. Looking back at where the whip stopped, the rotten silver piled up in Wollongong. "

After Xuande returned to Xinye, time flew by, and it was the first day of the Spring Festival. Is to let the fortune teller pay homage, choose an auspicious day, fast for three days, bathe and change clothes, and then go to Wollongong to pay tribute to Kong Ming. Guan and Zhang Wen were unhappy, so they joined forces to remonstrate with Liu Bei. Exactly: Gao Xian failed to obey the heroic ambition and had doubts about Jieshi.

Liu Bei failed to go to Kongming twice, and he wanted to go again. Guan Yu said, "My brother went to worship twice, which was too much. I think Zhuge Liang has a hollow reputation and no real talent, so he avoids it. Brother, why are you confused by the people of Sri Lanka? " Liu Bei said, "Qi Huangong wanted to meet the savage of Dongguo, but he didn't meet him five times. I want to see the Great Sage. " Zhang Fei said, "My brother is poor. How to measure that the village man is a great sage; I don't need my brother to go this time; If he doesn't come, I'll tie up the future with hemp rope! " Liu Bei said angrily, "Didn't you hear that Zhou Wenwang went to see Jiang Ziya? King Wen is so respectful, how rude you are! If you leave this time, I will go with Yunshang. " Fei said, "If both brothers go, how can my younger brother fall behind?" Liu Bei said, "If you go with me, don't be rude." Fei yingnuo

So the three men rode horses and led their followers to Longzhong. Half a mile away, Liu Bei dismounted and walked. When he met Zhuge Jun, Liu Bei saluted and asked, "Is your brother in the village?" They all said, "I just came back last night. The general can meet him today. " Then he drifted away. Liu Bei said, "How lucky I am to see you this time!" Zhang Fei said, "This man is rude! I might as well wait until the village, but why should I go by myself? " Liu Bei said, "They all have their own problems. How can they be strong?" Three people came to the village and knocked at the door. The boy opened the door and asked questions. Liu Bei said, "Thank you, Fairy Boy, for coming to report that Liu Bei came to see you." The boy said, "Although Mr. Wang is at home today, he is still awake in the thatched cottage." Liu Bei said, "In that case, don't publish it." Separate the guard from Zhang and wait at the door. Liu Bei came in and saw Mr. Liu lying on his back on several seats in the thatched cottage. Xuande arched down the steps. For a long time, my husband didn't wake up Guan and Zhang stood outside for a long time, but nothing happened. When they met Liu Bei, they stood still. Zhang Fei was furious and said to Yun Chang, "How arrogant this gentleman is! I saw my brother standing on the steps, lying so high that I couldn't sleep! When I go to the back of the house, set a fire and see if he can afford it! " Cloud long repeatedly advised to live. Liu Bei still ordered them to wait outside. Looking at the class, I saw Mr. Wang turn over, get up and suddenly fall asleep against the inner wall. That boy wants to report it. Liu Bei said, "Don't disturb." After standing for another hour, Kong Ming woke up and recited a poem, saying, "Who wakes up first in a big dream? I have known for a lifetime that the thatched cottage is full of spring sleep and the sun is late outside the window. " Kong Ming sang, turned over and asked the boy, "Are there any vulgar guests coming?" The boy said, "Liu Huangshu has been here for a long time." Zhuge Liang got up and said, "Why don't you do the morning paper? Shang Rong changed his clothes. " Then move to the backyard. After a long time, I just got dressed and rushed out.

When Liu Bei saw it, Kongming was eight feet long, with a face like a crown jade, a black silk scarf and a crane, and looked like a fairy. Liu Bei bowed and said, "I've heard a lot about you, the last man in the Han Dynasty, Zhuo Junyi. I paid an audience twice yesterday and didn't see it. I have written a book with Wen Ji, but I have never been able to finish it. " Kong Ming said, "It's a great shame that Nanyang savages have succeeded in slacking off and have been visited by generals many times." After the ceremony, they sat down separately, and the boy served tea. After drinking tea, Zhuge Liang said, "I read this book yesterday, which shows that the general is concerned about the country and the people;" But I hate being young and sparse. I was wrong. " Liu Bei said, "What Sima De said and what Xu Yuan said directly are all empty words, aren't they? I hope Mr. Wang won't dislike his meanness and give me more advice. Kong Ming said, "Virtue, simplicity and integrity are the best in the world." . Clever is the farmer's ear. How dare you talk about what is happening in the world? Two male fallacies. Why does the general ask for hard stone instead of beautiful jade? Liu Bei said, "A man is very learned. How can he always be under Lin Quan?" I hope Mr. Wang will think of the world and be prepared to be stupid. "Kong Mingxiao said," I want to hear the general's ambition. " Liu Beiping urged the guests to go to the banquet, saying, "The Han Dynasty has collapsed, traitors have stolen their lives, and they have failed to do their best. They want to spread benevolence and righteousness to the whole world, but their wisdom is shallow and short, so far they have nothing. But fortunately, Mr. Wang opened his stupid business and saved his life! Kong Ming said, "Since Dong Zhuo's rebellion, there have been heroes all over the world. Cao Cao's potential is not as good as Yuan Shao's, but he can overcome it, not only in time, but also in harmony with people. Today, there are millions of people in Cao Cao, holding the emperor to make the princes. This sincerity can't compete with each other. According to Sun Quan, he has lived in Jiangdong for three generations. This can be used for aid, but not for profit. Jingzhou is bordered by Han and Mian in the north, benefiting from it; it is connected with Tongba and Shu in the east and adjacent to it in the west. This place is untenable unless its owner; Almost a general with such a gift from heaven, is the general interested? Yizhou is in danger, fertile land is thousands of miles away, and the country of abundance, so Gaozu became the emperor; Now Liu Zhang is weak and the people are rich, but they don't know how to keep their shirts. Smart people think of smart gentlemen. The general is not only the imperial palace, but also loyal to the four seas, commanding heroes, thinking wise men and thirsty generals. If there are advantages and interests spanning, we should protect their rock resistance, take care of Yi and Yue in the west, Sun Quan in the south and repair politics internally; The world has changed, and a general will be ordered to send Jingzhou soldiers to Wan and Luo, and the general will lead Yizhou's people out of Qinchuan. How can the people meet the general without eating pot pulp? If so, the great cause can be achieved and the Han Dynasty can flourish. This light is why it is also for the general. Only the generals will understand. " Having said this, he ordered the boy to draw a scroll and hang it in nave. He pointed to Liu Bei and said, "This map of fifty-four states in Xichuan is also good. The general must take the lead, let Cao Cao dominate the north for one day, and let Sun Quan occupy the land in the south, so that the general can occupy the people and peace. Take Jingzhou as home first, and then take Xichuan as the foundation, so as to become a foothold, and then you can borrow from the Central Plains. "Hearing this, Liu Bei stepped down from the table and thanked him." What you said, Sir, was a sudden prologue, which made me see the clouds in the sky. But Liu Biao of Jingzhou and Liu Zhang of Yizhou are Han clan relatives, so what if they can bear it? Zhuge Liang said, "Looking at the sky at night, Liu Biao will soon be dead; Liu Zhang is not the master of his career: he will return to the general after a long time. Hearing this, Liu Bei nodded his thanks. There are only these words, but Kong Ming is still in infancy, and he knows that there are three points in the world, and he really lags behind people through the ages! Later generations have a poem praising: "Yuzhou laments that the sun is lonely and poor, why is Nanyang lucky to have Wolong!" "If you want to know where he is, Mr. Wang smiles and points to drawing." Liu Bei invited Zhuge Liang and said, "Although I have a bad reputation, I hope you will not abandon meanness and come out to help me. Be prepared to listen to the instructions. " Kong Ming said, "I am too happy to plow and hoe for a long time, but I am too lazy to meet the world. I can't live." Liu Bei sobbed and said, "What shall we do if you don't come out?" When he finished, tears wet his robe sleeves and his skirt. Seeing his sincerity, Kong Ming said, "The general doesn't give up on the other side, but helps the dogs and horses." Liu Bei was overjoyed, so he ordered Guan and Zhang to enter and presented gold and silk as a gift. Kong Minggu refused to accept his resignation. Liu Bei said: "This is not a gift for hiring the Great Sage, but it shows Liu Bei's concern." Kong accepted. So Liu Bei and others spent the night in the village.

The next day, when Zhuge Jun came back, Kong Ming told Fu, "Thanks to Liu Huangshu, I can't go. You can farm here, don't get a barren land. When I succeed, I will retire. " Later generations have a poem sighing: "Those who think about retreating before getting up should be remembered when they have finished. After the beginning of Ding Ning, the stars fell in the autumn wind. " The ancients also had a cloud: "The high emperor holds three feet of snow, and the white snake bleeds at night;" Qin Ping destroyed Chu and entered Xianyang, which was cut off two hundred years ago. Great zai guang Wu xing Luoyang, spread to Huan ling and split; Xian Di moved its capital to Xuchang, and there are many heroes in the world: when Cao Cao was in power, Jiangdong Sun Shi started Hongye; Lonely and poor, Xuande walked the world, lived alone in a new field and worried about the people. Nanyang Wolong has a great ambition and a strange belly; Because Xu Shu left, Mao Lu met. At the age of 39, Mr. Moore packed up his piano books and left Long Mu. Take Jingzhou first, then Sichuan, and make great efforts to make up the sky; Thunder on the tip of the tongue, laughter in the chest turns into stars; Long Xiang sees An Gankun, and his name will last forever! " Liu Bei and others resigned from Zhuge Jun and returned to Xinye with Kongming.

Liu Bei treated Kong Ming as a teacher, ate at the same table and slept on the same bed. He talks about world affairs all day. Zhuge Liang said, "When Cao Cao leaves Xuanwu Pool in Jizhou, he will invade Jiangnan. It can make people cross the river to find out the truth. " Liu Bei followed suit and asked people about Jiangdong.
