Noble family, Tang partial humiliation, longzhong right, set an example, specifically,

Bobby Chen is from Yangcheng. Guangwu is from Yang Xia. When Chen She was young, he was employed to farm the land with others. Chen She stopped farming and rested on high ground near the field. He sighed and hated for a long time because of disappointment, saying, "If one day he is rich, don't forget each other." The companions replied with a smile: "How can you be rich when you work as an employee to farm for others?" Chen She sighed and said, "Alas, how does the sparrow know the direction of the swan?"

In July of the first year of Qin Ershi, the court recruited 900 poor civilians to defend Yuyang and settled in osawa Township. Chen Sheng and Guangwu were both put into the garrison in order, serving as small leaders. It happened to rain heavily and the road was blocked. I guess it was delayed. If it is delayed, according to the law of the Qin dynasty, it is necessary to behead. Chen Sheng discussed with Guangwu, saying, "Now it is death to flee, and so is the uprising. Is it okay to die for national affairs? " Chen Sheng said: "The people of the whole country were oppressed by the Qin Dynasty for a long time and suffered terribly. I heard that Qin Ershi, the youngest son of Qin Shihuang, should not be emperor. The man who should be emperor is childe Fu Su. Fu Su told Qin Shihuang many times, so the emperor sent him to lead troops outside. Now some people have heard that Fu Su is innocent, but I killed him. Most people heard that he was clever, but they didn't know that he was dead. When Xiang Yan was a general of Chu State, he made many meritorious deeds and cared for soldiers. The people of Chu state like him very much. Some people think that he is dead, and some people think that he has run away. " Now, if you really pretend to be the sons of Fu Su and Xiang Yan and call on the whole country, there should be many people responding. "Guangwu think Bobby Chen said is correct. So they went to divination. The fortune teller knew their intention and said, "You can all succeed in your affairs, and you will build your achievements. But why don't you ask ghosts and gods? Chen Sheng and Guangwu were very happy. They considered the matter of the diviner and said, "This is just to teach us to convince everyone first." So he wrote "Chen" on the silk book with vermilion and put it in the belly of a fish caught by others with a net. When the garrison soldiers bought fish to cook, they found silk books in the belly of the fish, which was already very strange. Chen Sheng secretly sent Guangwu to a temple in the jungle next to the garrison. At night, he covered the fire with bamboo and pretended it was a ghost fire. He shouted like a fox: "Great Chu is revived, and Chen Sheng is king! "The guards were frightened at night. The next day, Shouzhi talked about it everywhere, pointing fingers at Bobby Chen.

Guangwu has always cared about his foot soldiers, and many of them are willing to work for him. The two officers escorting the garrison were drunk, and Guangwu deliberately said many times that he wanted to escape, which made the officers very angry and made them blame themselves, thus angering the garrison. The police officer really used bamboo boards to fight guangwu. The officer drew his sword again and threatened it. Guangwu jumped up, grabbed the sword and killed the officer. Chen Sheng helped him and killed two officers together. Chen Sheng and Guangwu called the guard and said, "You are trapped by the heavy rain, and you have missed the deadline set by the imperial court. If you miss the deadline, you will be beheaded. Even if the court doesn't kill us, six or seven out of ten people guarding the border will definitely die. Besides, heroes don't die, and when they die, they can get great fame! " Will princes be born noble? "All the guards said," obey your orders. "So he pretended to be a team of childe Fu Su and Xiang Yan, and obeyed the wishes of all. The army is marked by the right arm, which is called Dachu. They built a high platform, made an alliance on the platform and swore to dedicate the captain's head to heaven and earth. Bobby Chen became a general and Guangwu became a captain. The insurgents first captured osawa Township, absorbed the masses to join the army, and then attacked Qixian County. After the capture of Qixian, the emissary led troops to capture the east of Qixian and attacked Luo, Zhou, Zhe, Qiao and other places, all of which were captured. During the parade, people were absorbed along the way to join the rebel army. By the time we arrived in Chen county, the insurgents had six or seven hundred chariots, more than one thousand cavalry and tens of thousands of infantry. When attacking Chen county, the county magistrate and the county magistrate were not in the city, only the clever gate guarding the city fought against the insurgents. Defending the city was defeated and killed, and the insurgents entered the city and occupied Chen County. A few days later, Chen Sheng ordered to gather people and heroes. The three elders and heroes all said: "The general personally wore solid armor and held sharp weapons to crusade against the cruel king of Qin, to crack down on the tyrannical Qin dynasty and to rebuild Chu. "Chen Sheng is king, claiming to rebuild Chu. At this time, the people oppressed by Qin officials in various counties punished the local governor and killed them in response to Chen She.

Don partially humiliated his mission.

Qin Shihuang sent someone to say to Anlingjun: I want to exchange 500 miles of land in Fiona Fang for Anlingjun, but Anlingjun must promise me! An Lingjun said: It's good that the king gives people favors and exchanges the big for the small. Even so, I accepted the fief of my late king, and I am willing to guard it all the time and dare not exchange it! The king of Qin was very unhappy. So Ling Jun sent Tang Ju to the State of Qin.

The king of Qin said to Tang Ju: I traded 500 miles of land in Fiona Fang for Anlingjun, but Anlingjun didn't listen to me. Why? Besides, Qin destroyed South Korea and Wei, but Anlingjun survived in the land of Wuli, because I took Anlingjun as an honest man, so I didn't pay attention. Now I use ten times the land to let a Ling Junren expand his territory. Doesn't he despise me against his will? Tang Ju replied, No, it isn't. A Ling Junren accepted the fief from the former king and defended it. Even thousands of miles around dare not exchange it. Can we only exchange 500 miles of land?

The king of Qin was furious and said to Tang Ju, Have you ever heard of being angry at having children? Tang Ju replied, I haven't heard of it. The king of Qin said: The anger of the son of heaven caused millions of corpses to fall and thousands of miles of blood to fall. Tang Ju said, Has your Majesty ever heard of the anger of the common people? The king of Qin said: When people get angry, they take off their hats and hit the ground barefoot. Tang Ju said: This is the anger of people with shallow knowledge, not the anger of people with courage. Once upon a time, when Zhuan Xu assassinated Wu Wangliao, the light of a comet hit the moon. When Nie Zheng assassinated Han Jing, white clouds usually passed through the sun. Just before Qing Ji was assassinated, the goshawk suddenly pounced on the palace. These three people are all courageous people from ordinary people. Before the anger in their hearts broke out, signs of good or bad fell from the sky. Now, Zhuzhu, Nie Zheng and I will be four people together. If ambitious people are bound to get angry, they will let two people fall down, so that blood will only flow five steps away. People all over the country are required to wear mourning clothes, and so is it today. So he drew his sword and stood up.

The king of Qin's face softened at once. He knelt down and apologized to Tang Ju and said, Please sit down, sir! Why are you doing this! I see: Why did South Korea and Wei perish, but Anling survived with a land of fifty miles, just because there were gentlemen.

Longzhongdui

Selected from the biography of the Three Kingdoms, Shu Zhi and Zhuge Liang. The author of the Three Kingdoms is Chen Shou. The formulation of Longzhongdui was not put forward by Chen Shou in the History of the Three Kingdoms, but was added by later generations. There is also a saying that Cao Lu is right. Chen Shou (233 ~ 297), a historian, was born in Han An (now Nanchong, Sichuan) in the Western Jin Dynasty. The author of the twenty-fifth history of the reflection. The story of Longzhong Dui happened in the twelfth year of Jian 'an (2007). Liu Bei visited the cottage, and Zhuge Liang (then 27 years old) told Liu Beichen that there are three points in the world, namely the famous Longzhong pair. The Collection of Zhuge Liang, written by Chen Shou in 268-273, should be the main content of the Biography of Zhuge Liang in the Ten Years of Taikang (290). Therefore, Chen Shou must have listened to others' paraphrases and then compiled Longzhong Dui. As for who was there, it's hard to say.

history

After the battle of Guandu, Liu Bei fled to Jingzhou and defected to Liu Biao. Liu Biao allocated some troops to him to stay in Xinye (now Xinye County, Henan Province). Liu Bei is an ambitious man, because his ambition has not been realized, and his heart is always unhappy. He wants to find a good assistant. He found a famous man named Si Mahui in Xiangyang, so he went to visit him specially. Si Mahui said, "There are Wolong and Feng Chu in this area. If you can invite one of them, you can calm down the world. " Si Mahui told Liu Bei: Wolong is Zhuge Liang, and the word is Kongming; Feng Chu's name is Pang Tong. Xu Shu is also a local celebrity, because I heard that Liu Bei was recruiting talents, so I came to see him. Liu Bei was so happy that he left Xu Shu as his counselor. Xu Shu said, "I have an old friend, Zhu Gekongming. People call him Wolong. Does the general want to meet him? " After listening to Xu Shu's introduction, Liu Bei said, "Since you know him so well, please come hard and invite him!" Xu Shu shook his head and said, "This can't be done. People like this must be personally invited by the general to show your sincerity. "

Liu Bei successively heard that Si Mahui and Xu Shu attached great importance to Zhuge Liang. Knowing that Zhuge Liang must be a great talent, he took Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to Longzhong to find Zhuge Liang. Zhuge Liang visited the hut and was finally moved by Liu Bei's sincerity and took Liu Bei to his hut. Zhuge Liang saw that Liu Bei was so open-minded and asked for advice, so he had a heart-to-heart talk with Liu Bei. He said: "Now Cao Cao has defeated Yuan Shao, with an army of1100,000, and he is holding the order of the Emperor. We can't compete with him by force alone. Sun Quan has occupied Jiangdong area for three generations. Jiangdong has a dangerous terrain, and now all the people have joined him, and a group of talents are working for him. It seems that we can only unite with him and can't play his mind. "

Then, Zhuge Liang analyzed the situation of Jingzhou and Yizhou (now part of Sichuan, Yunnan, Shaanxi, Gansu, Hubei and Guizhou), and thought that Jingzhou was an important military place, and Liu Biao could not keep this place. Yizhou has a fertile and vast land, which has always been called "the land of abundance", but Liu Zhang, the owner there, is also a weak man, and everyone is dissatisfied with him. Finally, he said, "The general is a descendant of the royal family and is famous all over the world. If we can occupy Jingzhou and Yizhou, unite with Sun Quan and rectify internal affairs, we can March from Jingzhou and Yizhou and attack Cao Cao once we have the opportunity. At that time, who will not welcome the general? In this way, we can achieve great things and restore the Han Dynasty. " After listening to Zhuge Liang's incisive and thorough analysis, Liu Bei's thoughts were suddenly enlightened. He felt that Zhuge Liang's talents were rare, so he earnestly asked Zhuge Liang to come out of the mountain and help him complete the great cause of reviving the Han Dynasty. Zhuge Liang went out to assist Liu Bei. Later, people called it "three visits to the thatched cottage" and called Zhuge Liang's conversation "Longzhong Dui".

version

The original text of Longzhong Dui

Working hard at Longmu is good for Fu Liang Yin. He is eight feet long, and every time he compares himself with Guan Zhong and Le Yi, he is incomparable. Cui and Yingchuan of Boling are straightforward and bright, friendly and honest.

Be the first master to station a new field. When Xu Shu met the first master, he took care of the equipment first. He said, "Zhu Gekongming, Wolong, do you want to see him?" The late Lord said, "Come with me." Cao Shu said, "You can meet this man, but you can't give in to him. The general should be in charge. "

Therefore, it is clear that we should see each other from time to time. Because the screen man said, "The Han Dynasty is dead, the traitor stole his life, and the Lord was covered with dust. Lonely and incompetent, want to believe in human justice; And wisdom is short, so use it. As for today. However, the ambition is not over yet, and you said that the plan will come out? "

Liang replied, "Since Dong Zhuo came, there have been many heroes, and countless people have crossed the state and even the county. Compared with Yuan Shao, Cao Cao has a small name and few people. However, Cao defeated Shao and took the weak as the strong, which not only suppressed the weather, but also suppressed others. Today, millions of Cao Cao are vassals with the emperor. This sincerity is indisputable. According to Sun Quan, he lived in Jiangdong for three generations, and the country was in danger of the people. He can use it. It can be used for aid, but not for profit. Jingzhou is bordered by Han and Mian in the north, benefiting from the South China Sea, Wu Hui in the east and Bashu in the west. This is a country that uses force, but its owner can't stay. This is almost heaven, so it is a general. Does the general care? Yizhou is a dangerous place, fertile land is thousands of miles away, and the land of abundance makes Gaozu emperor. Liu Zhang is weak, Zhang Lu is in the north, the people are rich but don't know how to keep shirts, and the wise think of the wise. The general is the emperor's palace, loyal to the four seas, commanding heroes, thinking of the wise and thirsty. If there are advantages and benefits across it, rock resistance will be guaranteed, Sun Quan will be well established externally, and the world will be changed internally. Then the general was ordered to turn Jingzhou's army to ten thousand and Luo, and the general led Yizhou people out of Qinchuan, but the people did not dare. If this is the case, the hegemony can be reached and the Han family can flourish. "

The late Lord said, "Good!" So I got very close to Liang Qing.

Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and others were unhappy, and the late master explained, "There is a hole in the sky alone, and there is water in the fish. I hope you don't say anything! " Feather, flying is the only way.

Lusu Ban Long lochus

Yes, it depends on the mood. The language is very pleasing. When all the guests went out, Sue resigned, but they brought Sue back alone and drank on the sofa. Because of the secret discussion, he said, "Today, the Han Dynasty is in danger, and the clouds disturb all directions. I inherited my father and brother's career by myself, and I think I have Huan Wen's credit. Since you patronize, how can I help? " Su Dui said: "In the past, those who only wanted to respect the righteous emperor but couldn't get it regarded Xiang Yu as a harmful thing. Today's Cao Cao, like Xiang Yu, how can the general be Huan Wen? In order to destroy thieves, the Han Dynasty cannot be revived, and Cao Cao cannot be eliminated. For the general's sake, there is only one way to see the troubles in the world. On this scale, there is no doubt. who is it? There are many things in the north. Because of its many tasks, Huang Zu was destroyed and Liu Biao was attacked. I didn't expect the Yangtze River to be exceptionally rich and based on it. Then built as an emperor, taking advantage of the world. This is also a matter of Gaudi. " Quan said, "Han is beyond his power, so you should try your best to help." Zhang's lack of modesty is quite ruined. Su Yun is young and careless, and has no time. I didn't care much, but I benefited from it. I give my mother clothes, live in sundries and enrich her old ones. When Liu Biao died, Su Jin said, "My husband Jingchu, a neighboring country, has rivers flowing north, Jianghan and Neili Mountain Mausoleum. There is a city of solid gold, fertile soil in Wan Li, and rich scholars. If there is, the emperor's capital is also there. The table is new today, and the two sons are not reconciled. The generals in the army are different. Liu Bei is a fierce man in the world, and there is a gap with Cao Cao. He put it on the table to show that he couldn't use it. If you are prepared to be in harmony with him, you should be at peace, and you should form an alliance with him: if you deviate, you should try your best to help great things. Sue asked someone to hang up her second son's watch, comforted those who used it in the army, and said that he would be prepared to care for the people all over the world and unite as one, and that he would be happy to rule Cao Cao. If there is harmony, the world can be settled. If you don't leave soon today, you may do it first. " On the right is the delivery line.

Mao Jie Edition of Longzhong Dui

Zu Mao said: "Today, the country is falling apart, the country is moving, the people are in poverty, the government has no savings for many years, and the people have no ambition to settle down, which is unsustainable. Today's Yuan Shao and Liu Biao, despite their strong scholars and people, have no long-term consideration and have not established their own infrastructure. If the husband is righteous, he will win, and then he will keep his position and benefit his wealth. It is advisable to serve the son of heaven, so that he will not be a minister, cultivate crops and raise livestock, so as to achieve the business of overlord. "

Giant version of "Longzhong Dui"

Shao Yue, who is engaged in gathering longevity, said, "If a general is weak, his family will become famous; When the value is abolished, loyalty will work hard; If you ride alone, Dong Zhuo will be afraid; If you go north along the river, you will see the Bohai Sea kowtowing. The death of a county and Jizhou is famous all over the world. Although the yellow turban insurrectionary is chaotic, Montenegro is domineering, the army is advancing eastward, and Qingzhou can be settled; Also for Montenegro, then Zhang Yan can be destroyed; Back to the north, the sun will be lost; If you are threatened by an earthquake, the Huns will follow. To the north of Hengda River, the land of the four states merged, bringing together many talents. Millions of talents, welcome the king to Xijing, restore the ancestral hall to Luoyi, and make the world win. Who can be the enemy? Compared with several years, this work is not difficult.

Longzhong Dui, excerpted from a short essay of more than 300 words from The History of the Three Kingdoms, Shu Zhi and Zhuge Liang Biography, was selected as a junior high school textbook compiled by People's Education Publishing House, faded out after 1988, and was re-selected as a junior high school textbook in the spring of 2003 after being reviewed in 200 1.

On July 18, Hubei Xiangfan Daily published "Longzhong's Behind the Return", revealing all kinds of work done by Xiangfan City to make Longzhong return to middle school textbooks. On July 3 1 day, the original text of this article was reprinted by the media in Nanyang, Henan Province, which aroused strong repercussions from all walks of life in Nanyang. /kloc-Since August of 0/6, Nanyang City has held the activity of "Defending history, respecting historical facts, and Zhuge Liang signing Nanyang".

Zhuge Liang's model is also included in the same textbook as Longzhongdui. "Nanyang" in this article is marked as "Xiangyang area" in the textbook. This scheme has also caused great controversy in Nanyang.

The list of teachers has always been a selection item of full-time junior high school Chinese textbooks published by People's Education Society. Longzhong Dui appeared in the textbooks of People's Education Society for the last time and was selected as the sixth volume of Chinese textbooks for full-time ten-year schools published by the society. 1988 junior high school textbook revision, this article was rejected for "reducing the burden of classical Chinese for middle school students".

Brief introduction of the author

Chen Shou (233-297) was born in Han An, Brazil (now Nanchong, Sichuan) in the Western Jin Dynasty. Learn less and learn from Qiao Zhou, a scholar in the same county. At that time, he served as general Wei Zhushu, Dongguan Secretariat, Guan Ge Shi and Huangmen Assistant Minister. At that time, eunuch Huang Hao was authoritarian, and his ministers followed suit. Chen Shou was repeatedly dismissed because he refused to give in to Huang Hao. After entering Jin, he served as a writer, Changping magistrate, scholar and suggestion. In 280, the gold was destroyed, ending the separatist situation. Chen shou was forty-eight years old and began to write the reflection.

The History of the Three Kingdoms is a biographical history of the country, which records the period when Wei, Shu and Wu stood in the balance. Among them, Shu Wei has 30 volumes, Shu Shu 15 volumes, Wu Shu has 20 volumes and * * * has 65 volumes. It recorded the history of 60 years from the first year of Huang Chu, Wei Wendi (220 years) to the first year of Taikang, Emperor Wu of Jin Dynasty (280 years). The author is Chen Shou in the early years of the Western Jin Dynasty. Chen Shou was a minister of the State of Jin, who succeeded Wei and won the world. Therefore, The History of the Three Kingdoms respects Wei as orthodox. In Shu Wei, Cao Cao wrote a biography, while Shu Shu and Wu Shu just passed it on without discipline. Liu Bei is called a great master, and Sun Quan is called a great master. This is an example of compiling history books to serve politics, and it is also a feature of the History of the Three Kingdoms.

a two-part allegorical saying

Zhuge Liang's long-term success strategy-foresight

Zhuge Liang personally farmed and liked to sing "The Song of Fu Liang". He is eight feet tall and often compares himself with Guan Zhong and Le Yi. No one admitted it at that time. Only Cui of Boling and Xu Shu of Yingchuan made friends with him, which is true.

Liu Bei was stationed in Xinye at that time. Xu Shu visited Liu Bei, and Liu Bei thought highly of him. Xu Shu said to Liu Bei, "Zhu Gekongming, this is Wolong. Does the general want to see him? " Liu Bei said, "Come with him." Xu Shu said, "This man can only visit him, and he can't be wronged. Call him home. You should bend down and visit him. "

So Liu Bei went to visit Zhuge Liang, and * * * went three times to see him. Liu Bei then told the people next to him to avoid, saying, "There was great chaos in the Han Dynasty. The traitor usurped the political power and the emperor fled. I didn't measure my virtue and strength, and wanted to uphold justice in the world, but my intelligence was short and I had few ways, and finally I failed, resulting in today's situation. But my ambition has not stopped. What do you suggest? "

Zhuge Liang replied, "Since Dong Zhuo usurped power, heroes all over the country have set out to occupy countless counties. Compared with Yuan Shao, Cao Cao is less famous and has fewer troops, but this is not only a good opportunity for Cao Cao to defeat Yuan Shao and turn from weak to strong, but also a proper plan for Cao Cao. Now Cao Cao has a million troops, forcing the emperor to order his ministers, which is really inferior to him. Sun Quan has occupied Jiangdong for three generations. The terrain is dangerous, and the people are attached to him, so the talents are reused by him. Sun Quan can use him as foreign aid in this respect, but he cannot be used. Jingzhou controls the Hanjiang River and Mianhe River in the north, and can get supplies from all the way to the South China Sea. Two counties in the east, Huiji, and two counties in the west, Ba and Shu. This is a battleground for military strategists, but his master Liu Biao can't keep it. This place is probably used by God to finance the general. Doesn't the general mean occupation? Yizhou has dangerous passes and vast fertile land. It is a place with superior natural conditions, rich products and solid situation. Emperor gaozu made great contributions with this place. Yizhou herded Liu Ling fatuous and cowardly, while Zhang Lu occupied the northern part of Hanzhong. The people are rich and the country is strong, but he doesn't know how to cherish the people. A wise man wants a wise monarch. General, since you are a descendant of the Han emperor, your prestige and loyalty are well known all over the world, and you are also a well-known hero. People who want talent are like thirsty. If Jingzhou and Yizhou are occupied, relying on the dangerous terrain of the two States, make peace with all ethnic groups in the west, appease all ethnic groups in the south, form an alliance with Sun Quan externally, and improve national politics internally; If the world situation changes, send a superior general to lead Jingzhou's army into Nanyang and Luoyang. General, you personally led Yizhou's army to attack Qinchuan. Who dares to welcome you with a pot of wine instead of a bamboo basket? If this is really done, then the regime of the Han Dynasty can be revived. "

Liu Bei said, "Good!" Since then, the friendship with Zhuge Liang has increased day by day.

Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and others are unhappy. Liu Bei advised them: "I have Kong Ming, like a duck to water. I hope you don't say anything more. " Guan Yu and Zhang Fei calm down.

In the article, Zhuge Liang designed a political blueprint for Liu Bei: since the general is the emperor's palace, he believes in the world, is a hero, and is eager for wisdom. If we cross Jing and Yi to protect their rock resistance, if we cross Rong in the west and Fu Yi in the south, and make friends with Sun Quan outside, and the internal political situation changes, we will order a general to turn Jingzhou army to Wan and Luo, and the general will lead Yizhou people out of Qinchuan. If that's the case, we can think of everything, and the Han Dynasty can flourish.

Chu time scale

The first emperor died in the middle of establishing imperial industry. Now that the world has been divided into Wei Shuwu, the strength of Shu is weak, which is indeed a critical moment for the survival of the country. However, the ministers of the Guards did not slack off in the imperial court. Loyal and ambitious soldiers gave their lives to fight on the battlefield, all because they remembered the special treatment given to them by the first emperor when he was alive and wanted to work for your majesty. Your majesty should really listen to the opinions of ministers extensively, carry forward the virtues left by the former emperor and carry forward the spirit of people with lofty ideals; Don't belittle yourself casually, saying that quoting metaphors is not in line with the great righteousness (inappropriate remarks), thus blocking the way for loyal ministers to make suggestions.

The inner palace and the court officials are a whole, and rewards and punishments, merits and demerits should not be different in the palace or the court. If there are people who do evil, violate the law and discipline, and do good faithfully, your majesty should hand them over to the competent officials, who will evaluate the punishment or reward they deserve to show your majesty's fair and strict policy of governing the country. There should be no favoritism, which makes the rules inside and outside the palace different.

Guo Youzhi, Fei Yi, assistant minister Dong Yun and others are honest people with the same aspirations and thoughts, so the first emperor chose them as his majesty. I think your majesty should seek their opinions on everything in the palace, big or small, and then implement it. This will definitely make up for the omissions and get better results.

Xiang Chong, a general, is kind, fair and proficient in military affairs. Once upon a time, after a trial, the first emperor praised him for his talent, so everyone discussed and elected him as the central governor. I think everything in the barracks should be discussed with him, so that the army can unite and cooperate, and good and bad soldiers can get their places.

Being close to virtuous officials and alienating villains are the reasons for the prosperity of the former Han Dynasty. Being close to the villain and alienating the virtuous officials are the reasons why the later Han Dynasty was overthrown and declined. When my late emperor was alive, every time he talked to me about these things, he never felt sorry for Huan and Ling. Shi Zhong, Shang Shu, Chang Shi and joining the army are all loyal and reliable officials who can serve the country with their lives. I hope your majesty will be close to them and trust them, so that the prosperity of the Han dynasty will be just around the corner.

I was originally a civilian, and I personally farmed in Nanyang. I just wanted to save my life in troubled times, but I didn't expect to be famous in front of the princes. My late emperor didn't degrade himself because of my humble background and short knowledge, but visited me in the thatched cottage many times and asked me about the current world affairs. I was so grateful that I promised my first emperor that I would help him. Later, when he failed, he was appointed when he was defeated, and he was ordered to go to Soochow when he was in danger. It has been 2 1 year now.

The late emperor knew that I was cautious and entrusted the affairs of state to me before he died. Since I accepted the appointment, I have been worried about sighing day and night, worrying that I can't do the things entrusted by my late emperor, which will damage the sanctity of my late emperor. So I crossed the Lushui River in May and went deep into that desolate place. Now that the south has been pacified and weapons are ready, it is necessary to inspire and lead the three armed forces to pacify the northern Central Plains. I hope I can exhaust my mediocre talents, eradicate the evil Cao Wei, revive the Han Dynasty and move back to Luoyang, the capital. This is what I used to repay my late emperor and be loyal to your duties and obligations. Guo Youzhi, Fay, Dong Yun, etc. Responsible for their careful consideration of political affairs and their unreserved suggestions.

I hope your majesty will give me the task of punishing traitors and reviving the Han Dynasty. If it is not completed, please treat me as a felony and comfort the spirit of my late emperor. If you don't encourage your majesty to preach sage advice, blame Guo Youzhi, Fei Yi, Dong Yun and others for neglecting to expose their mistakes; Your Majesty himself should seriously consider state affairs, seek advice on how to govern the country, listen to correct opinions, and deeply cherish the legacy of the late emperor. If I can do this, I will be very grateful.

Now I want to say goodbye to your majesty's long journey. I don't know what to say in the face of tears.
