Yang Xiu can be described as a celebrity of the Three Kingdoms, he is only eight buckets high, learns five cars, and is witty, but he is arrogant and arrogant, likes to play small clever, and is eventually killed by Cao Cao. Although a person's talent must be revealed, but it is also necessary to distinguish between time and occasion, like Yang Xiu, who does not distinguish between time and occasion, it is sooner or later that he will be killed.
Cao Cao has a Yang Xiu by his side, and Liu Bei also has a "Yang Xiu" around him, he is Peng Xi, he is like Yang Xiu, rich in strategy, but arrogant and arrogant, like to brush small cleverness, the result is also killed.
Peng Xi looked down on no one with his talent, so everyone hated him. Peng Xi came to Yizhou, defected to Liu Zhang, and found an official and a half-job, originally he would have worked well and worked seriously, but he used his cleverness to slander Liu Zhang, saying that Liu Zhang's was not good.
Liu Zhang was very angry after hearing this, and angrily said what kind of thing are you, dare to say me? Liu Zhang shaved Peng Xi's hair and made him a slave.
It was also Peng Xi's good fortune that liu bei entered Shu a few days later, and he heard that Liu Bei was a gentleman and a corporal of LiXian, so he planned to defect to Liu Bei. Peng Xi did not go directly to Liu Bei, but went to find Pang Tong, and he asked Pang Tong to introduce him.
Peng Xi and Fa Zheng were old acquaintances before, so he also told Fa Zheng and asked him to introduce him. In this way, Pang Tong and Fa Zheng jointly recommended Peng Xi to Liu Bei, saying that he had talent and could be entrusted with heavy responsibilities. Liu Bei then took Peng Xi in and gave him an official and a half-post.
Peng Xi was a person with a proud heart, and after being reused by Liu Bei, he could not recognize himself, and began to drift a little, toeing high to others, pointing and pointing, and committing some deviant behavior.
Zhuge Liang, who was in charge of Yizhou's administrative affairs, despised Peng Xi's behavior, and what he despised most was the appearance of the villain. Zhuge Liang spoke to Liu Bei, saying that Peng Xi had all kinds of improprieties. After Liu Bei heard this, he asked Peng Xi to serve as the Taishou of Jiangyang, away from Chengdu.
After Peng Xian belittled who, he was very upset in his heart, so he talked to Ma Chao. Ma Chao admired Peng Xi and said that his talents could be on a par with Zhuge Liang.com.
Peng Xian told Ma Chao about his bitterness, just as the so-called words will be lost, Peng Xian said that he slipped his mouth and said a word that should not be said: "Qing is outside, I am inside, and the world is not determined." ”
Peng Xian meant to let Ma Chao work with him, Ma Chao was external, he was on the inside, as long as the two joined forces, the world could be peaceful. The implication of this sentence is that Peng Xi and Ma Chao want to betray Liu Bei, and the two join forces to rebel. I don't know if this is Peng Xi's sincere words or drunken words, after he finished speaking, he could scare Ma Chao.
Ma Chao did not pay attention to him and remained silent. Peng Yue's courage was also big enough, and the two of them were like turning to Liu Bei, and they didn't know what was called death. After Peng Xi left, Ma Chao made a small report to Liu Bei and said what Peng Xi said.
When Liu Bei heard this, he was furious and arrested Peng Xi. After Peng Xi was arrested and arrested, Zhuge Liang interrogated him, and no matter how cunning Peng Yue was, Zhuge Liang was going to kill him. Zhuge Liang has always wanted to get rid of Peng Xi, but there is no chance, the biggest opportunity is in front of him, and finally Peng Xi was killed by Zhuge Liang.
Peng Xi offended many people before she died, so no one interceded for her, and he was killed. Peng Xi's experience and results have told posterity a truth, do not pretend X, pretend X was struck by lightning!
