Now, there is a rhetorician named Chunyu Kun in the State of Qi, who is good at using metaphors.

When the State of Qi began to revive, Chu invaded, and Qi Weiwang wanted to send an envoy to Zhao to transfer troops. Who can be sent? He glanced at the civil and military officials in the DPRK and saw the little Chunyu Kun, which reminded me of one thing:

A few years ago, Qi Weiwang idled around all day and turned a blind eye to state affairs, but no one dared to persuade him. One day, Chunyu Kun came to see Qi Weiwang and said to him, "I heard that there is a strange big bird in Qi. Knowing that the king loves to play with birds, he flew in the air and flew to the palace in the blink of an eye. It stayed in the palace for three years, but it never flew around. Do you think this bird is strange? "

Qi Weiwang said: "Don't look at this bird that doesn't fly for three years, but it can soar as soon as it flies;" Don't look at the bird. If it doesn't sing for three years, it will be amazing when it sings! " Say that finish, Qi Weiwang heart movement, finally understand, Chunyu Kun is using argot allegorical him. So he summoned 72 county magistrates of Qi State, rewarded one of them with a good one, killed one of them with a bad one, and then sent troops to quell the rebellious princes.

Thought of here, decided to send eloquent Chunyu Kun to Zhao Banshi. He let Chunyu Kun ride 10 chariots and horses, and loaded it with 100 gold. Chunyu Kun laughed and even the belt that tied his hat was broken.

Qi Weiwang said, "Do you think these things are few?"

Chunyu Kun said, "How dare you be too few?"

Qi Weiwang said, "Then what were you laughing at just now?"

Chunyu Kun said, "Today, I came from the east and saw a farmer praying for a bumper harvest next year by the field. Holding a pig's trotter and a glass of wine in his hand, he prayed and said, "Tian, please bless me with a bumper crop, rice Man Cang!" " "He offered so few sacrifices and wanted so much, so he couldn't help laughing at him. "

Qi Weiwang understood his code word and immediately gave him gold 1000, horses and chariots 100, and white jade 10. Chunyu Kun went to Zhao and moved 654.38+ 10,000 Zhao soldiers. Chu heard the news and immediately withdrew.

After the Chu army retreated, Qi Weiwang hosted a banquet for Chunyu Kun, who returned from the mission, and asked him, "How much wine can you drink before you get drunk?"

Because Qi Weiwang often drinks all night, Chunyu Kun wants him to get rid of this habit, so he looks for some clever words. He said, "I got drunk after drinking a bowl and a jar."

Qi Weiwang asked, "What is the reason?"

Chunyu Kun replied, "Give me a drink in front of the king, with the judge and historian standing by. I was so scared that I fell to the ground to drink, and I got drunk without drinking a bowl. If my father has a distinguished guest at home, I will serve at the dinner. Guests often give me leftover wine, and I can drink two bowls. If I talk about long-term friendship with old friends I don't see often, then I can drink five or six bowls; If it is a party in the country, men and women sit together, walk around to persuade wine, hold hands without punishment, and flirt is not prohibited, so I only got drunk for two or three minutes after drinking eight bowls of wine. It's getting late and we've had enough wine. Let's share a drink. Men and women are sitting on a mat together, and their shoes are lying in a mess. Wine glasses and dishes were littered, and candles were lit in the hall. The host sent the other guests away, but I stayed. At this juncture, I am so happy that I can drink a jar of wine. Therefore, as the saying goes,' drinking too much will make you confused, and enjoying too much will make you sad'. Thousands of dollars are the same. "

Qi Weiwang praised: "Yes, the wine is extremely chaotic, and it is extremely sad!" So I didn't drink all night.
