Ji Bu, a native of Chu, is a household name in Chu because of his enthusiasm and keen interest. Xiang Yu, the overlord of Chu, sent him to lead the army and embarrassed Hanwang Liu Bang many times. Xiang Yu was destroyed, and Emperor Gaozu offered a reward for the capture of Lu Bu.

Later, under the persuasion of Ruyin Xia Hou Hou Ying, Liu Bang pardoned Lu Bu and appointed him as a doctor. During the reign of Emperor Hui of Han Dynasty, Ji Bu served as a corps commander. During the reign of Emperor Wen of Han Dynasty, Ji Bu became the chief of Hedong.

2. From: Biography of Historical Records, Ji Bu and Luan Bu written by Sima Qian, a historian of the Western Han Dynasty: "It is better to get a hundred gold than a promise." It is better to get Lu Bu's promise than to get one hundred and twenty gold.

At the end of Qin Dynasty, there was a man named Lu Bu in Chu State. He is an honest and frank man and very trustworthy. As long as he agrees, he will do his best. Therefore, he was praised by many people and everyone respected him.

He used to be a general in Xiang Yu's army and defeated Liu Bang many times. So when Liu Bang established the Han Dynasty and became emperor, he ordered the capture of Lu Bu and announced that whoever captured Lu Bu was like 1200 gold.

The man who hid him was punished by the three families who killed him. However, Ji Bu is honest and often shows great bravery, so everyone wants to protect him. At first, Ji Bu hid in a friend's house. After a while, the news of catching him became tighter.

His friend shaved off his hair, disguised himself as a slave, took dozens of pieces of furniture and sold them to Zhu's family in Lu as laborers. Zhu Guzhu appreciated Jibu very much, so he made a special trip to Luoyang to ask Liu Bang's good friend Ru Yin Hou Tenggong to intercede for Liu Bang.

I hope to cancel the arrest warrant for Jibu. Later, Liu Bang pardoned Lu Bu and gave him an official position. There is a fellow countryman named Cao Qiusheng in Jixia. He always likes to associate with powerful friends.

So I asked someone to write a letter of introduction to Jibu, hoping to meet Jibu and make friends. But when Lu Bu saw him, he was disgusted. He didn't want to pay attention to Cao Qiusheng at all, but faced Lu Bu with an expression of disgust.

As if nothing had happened, I continued: You also know that we are all Chu people. People often say that promises are as good as gold, which is the result of my preaching and teaching for you everywhere.

But why do you always refuse to see me? Lu Bu was very happy after hearing Cao Qiusheng's words, and immediately changed his attitude and regarded him as a guest of honor. ?
