The Three Kingdoms period was a chaotic world, but it also achieved a lot of prodigies, in addition to Cao Cao Zhuge Liang, who was a minister of statecraft and martial arts, there were also many people who did not care about political affairs and were intoxicated with mountains and rivers. For example, the famous Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest in the Wei and Jin Dynasties were seven bohemian young maniacs, and one of them, Liu Ling, was the one who least cared about the fame of these seven people to drink for pleasure all their lives.
What does Liu Ling look like? The history books record that he was "six feet long, ugly in appearance, and wanton in spirit." According to the weights and measures of the Wei and Jin Southern and Northern Dynasties, one foot is only 23 centimeters, and Liu Ling is less than one meter and five meters tall.
As an adult male, Liu Ling is a little unworthy of the title of young talent, but God closes a door, will open a window, Liu Ling is very talented, and the articles and calligraphy are called a must at that time. However, Liu Ling, this guy likes to drink more than an official, so he has been idle at home and drinks all day.
What is amazing is that Liu Ling is not good-looking, and he has no job, or a complete drunkard, and even married a relatively virtuous wife, and I don't know if he has taken a fancy to his literary talent, but Liu Ling obviously does not have the intention of fighting for himself to have a wife room, and he still drinks without leaving his body, so his wife has also been bitter many times, and Liu Ling still goes his own way.
The Jianwei general Wang Rong heard about Liu Ling's fame, saw him staying at home, felt pity, and summoned him to his own shogunate to join the army, Liu Ling saw that there was a salary, but did not refuse, but still drank wine every day, three days of fishing and two days of drying nets to the shogunate to go around the shogunate for a circle.
Wang Rong looked at it and was very angry, I was kind enough to promote you, you took this attitude to fool me? He was driven back home. Liu Ling is also known as an unemployed vagrant.
Liu Shi was originally happy that her husband had become a civil servant, but she did not expect that he had been driven back because of his alcoholism, and in a fit of anger, she came up with a good idea that could rectify her husband and help him quit drinking.
Liu Shi was at home, after a long time, made a large jar of wine, at this time the drunken Liu Ling in the house drank the wine, and then shook up and went out, went to the hotel to buy wine to drink, he saw a large jar of wine caused by Liu Shi, happily came to the front of the wine tank, and said in a loud voice: "Still the lady understands me." ”
However, Liu Ling was really too short in height, Liu Ling "intimately" put a chair behind him, so that he could stand up and taste the sweet wine, Liu Ling was about to lean down to drink, But Liu Ling took the opportunity to shake him down, and said viciously: "Don't you like to drink?" I'll let you drink enough! Seeing that Liu Ling could show his head and breathe, Liu Immediately closed the lid. Only Liu Ling was left alone in the vat.
After three days, the wife came to see again, did not expect that the wine tank did not move, she hurriedly opened the lid, Liu Shi was dumbfounded, the wine in the vat has not left a drop, and Liu Ling is sleeping, Liu Ling is helpless, she can only resign herself to her husband.
Liu Ling once sat in the lobby drinking, drunk and drunk, full of fever, immediately took off his clothes, friends came to visit, saw Liu Ling's appearance, very angry said: "Do you not know shame? Unexpectedly, Liu Ling replied: "Heaven and earth are my home, this house is my pants, you entered my pants, and even commented that I came?" "My friend was dumbfounded." I take heaven and earth as the building, and the house as the robe, so why should the kings enter into my robe? ”
However, such a person, but lived to the age of 80, it is really jealous, Liu Ling has also written a lot of works, there are "Wine Virtue Song", "North Mang Guest House" and so on, he is really really a temperamental person.
