Idiom story

Guan Yu, the general of Shu state in the Three Kingdoms period, once encountered such problems. After the defeat of Xuzhou, Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei went to different places and lost contact. In order to protect Liu Bei's two wives, Guan Yu temporarily compromised and surrendered to Cao Cao. Cao Cao wanted to win over Guan Yu, to be a marquis, to reward money and beauties, and to influence Guan Yu for his own use. Although Guan Yu was grateful to Cao Cao for his kindness and made great contributions to Cao Cao for many times, he was always concerned about Liu Bei. As Cao Cao deliberately blocked the news, Guan Yu did not know Liu Bei's whereabouts. Late one night, Guan Yu was reading the book of war under the lamp. At this time, a stranger came and asked to see him. The visitor claimed to be a subordinate of general Yuan Shao. He brought a letter to Guan Yu. When Guan Yu took the letter, he saw that the envelope was written by Liu Bei. He was shocked and quickly opened the letter. It said: "I have been with you and Zhang Fei since the end of our friendship in Taoyuan. Why do you break up in the middle of the war? If you want to get more wealth, I am willing to give you my head to help you succeed! There's not enough to say. I'll wait for you to say a word! " Before he finished reading the letter, Guan Yu cried and said, "I don't want to look for the elder brother, but I don't know where the elder brother is. Is Guan Yu a villain who is greedy for wealth, forgetting his righteousness and abandoning the Lord?" Sure enough, soon after, Guan Yu found an opportunity to break away from Cao Cao, cross five passes, kill six generals, escort Liu Bei's two wives, and travel thousands of miles to the ancient city to meet Liu Bei.
