Once, Emperor Taizong was very happy to get a precious bird. Playing and playing, I suddenly heard that the assistant minister asked for Wei's adult, so he hid the bird in his sleeve and announced Wei to the temple. As soon as Wei Zhi came in, he gushed. Emperor Taizong was worried that he would suffocate the bird, and he was distracted. As a result, Wei noticed him. Wei deliberately delayed the time. After Wei left, Emperor Taizong took out the bird and saw that it was dead. Emperor Taizong was furious, but there was nothing he could do about Wei.
Emperor Taizong once visited Fang, a seriously ill minister, and asked the doctor. Knowing that there was still a shortage of medicine, he immediately cut off his beard with a dagger and gave it to the doctor.
2. Liu Bei takes care of Mao Lu.
One day in the middle of winter, Liu Bei took Guan Yu and Zhang Fei and invited Zhuge Liang to Longzhong. Who knows that Zhuge Liang happened not to be at home, so Liu Bei had to go home disappointed.
Liu Bei returned to Xinye and sent someone to Longzhong to inquire when Zhuge Liang was at home. When he learned that Zhuge Liang went out and returned home, Liu Bei immediately decided to invite Zhuge Liang. At this time, Zhang Fei said disapprovingly, "A common people, just send a samurai to call him, without repeated invitations." Liu Bei said: "Zhuge Liang is a great saint of our time. How can anyone just call him? You'd better come with me. " Liu Bei persuaded Zhang Fei to call Guan Yu, and the three rode straight to Longzhong.
On this day, the north wind roared, the snow fell heavily, and the cold was unbearable. Zhang Fei shouted at Liu Bei, "Why should I wait for this? It's better to wait until it clears up. " Liu Bei said, "Dear brother, in this snowstorm, we are not afraid of mountains or roads. Isn't inviting Zhuge a sign of our sincerity? " Three people move on. Unexpectedly, Liu Bei didn't see Zhuge Liang again this time, so he had to write to entrust Zhuge Liang's younger brother to help him, explain his purpose and say that he would visit again another day.
The following spring, Liu Bei changed his clothes and prepared a horse, and decided to visit Zhuge Liang for the third time. Zhang Fei and Guan Yu tried to dissuade them. Guan Yu said, "We invited him twice, but we didn't see him. It must be in name only, and I dare not meet him. " Zhang Fei even said in a contemptuous tone: "We have done our best. This time, I only need to go alone. If he doesn't come, I'll tie him up and see you. " Liu Bei quickly said, "Don't be rude. Without sincerity, how can we invite sages? "
Liu Bei flew directly to Longzhong and came to Zhuge Liang's thatched cottage. Zhuge Liang is taking a nap at this time. Liu Bei stood outside the door waiting for fear of disturbing Zhuge Liang, regardless of the fatigue of the journey, and did not dare to ask for an audience until Zhuge Liang woke up. When Liu Bei met Zhuge Liang, he said, "I have been longing for your name for a long time. I have visited you three times. It's really a great blessing in my life! " Zhuge Liang said, "I am sorry that General Meng did not give up and took care of the thatched cottage. Bright and young, I am afraid that the general will be disappointed. " Liu Bei said sincerely: "I don't measure my strength, I want to uphold justice for the world and revitalize the Han Dynasty. Due to short-term wisdom, I haven't achieved my goal yet. I hope that Teacher Wang will give me more advice. " Zhuge Liang was very moved by Liu Bei's humble attitude and sincere feelings. So Zhuge Liang finally agreed to Liu Bei's request and left the thatched cottage in Longzhong to become Liu Bei's strategist with the political ambition of unifying the whole country. He faithfully assisted Liu Bei and made great contributions to the establishment of the "Three Kingdoms" situation.
