When Lü Meng was young, he was once denounced by Jiangxia Taishou Cai for the affairs of his subordinates, and he did not resent him at all.
Later, Yuzhang Taishou Gu Shao died, and Sun Quan asked him who he should let replace Gu Shao, and he recommended Cai Yi.
Sun Quan was very happy to see that he did not remember his previous accusations, and smiled at him and said, "Do you want to be Qi Xi?" ”
So Cai Wei was appointed.
Qi Xi (祁奚), courtesy name Huang Yang, was a lieutenant in the Jin Dynasty during the Spring and Autumn Period.
He wanted to retire, and the Duke of Jin asked who could succeed him as a lieutenant.
Qi Xi elected to understand the fox, and Xie Fox was his enemy.
Sun Quan's words are undoubtedly a praise for Lü Meng's impartiality and selflessness.
Gan Ning had a rough temperament and was lighter than killing, and not only often disobeyed Lü Meng's wishes, but also disobeyed Sun Quan's orders from time to time.
Sun Quan was very annoyed by this, but Lü Meng always interceded for him, saying: "The world is undecided, and a fighter like Gan Ning is really rare, and we should tolerate him." ”
Sun Quan listened to Lü Meng's words and treated Gan Ning kindly.
Gan Ning was grateful to Dade and swore to die to serve Eastern Wu and made many contributions.
Once, a child in Ganning's kitchen made a mistake and fled to Lu Meng.
Lü Meng, fearing that Gan Ning would kill the boy, hid him and did not immediately return him.
Later, Gan Ning came to visit Lü Meng's mother with gifts, and when he wanted to go to the church to see his mother, Lü Meng called out the little boy, and Gan Ning promised not to kill, so he returned it to Gan Ning and returned with him.
But Ganning reneged on his word, returned to the boat, tied the boy to a mulberry tree, and personally took the bow and shot him to death.
Then, the men on board were ordered to strengthen the ship's cables and to undress themselves and lie in the boat.
Lü Meng was furious when he heard the news, and gathered his troops with drums and prepared to get on the ship and attack Ganning.
Gan Ning heard the movement and deliberately lay down unable to get up.
When Lü Meng's mother heard about it, she rushed to luminous feet and dissuaded Lü Meng, saying, "The Supreme Lord (Sun Quan) values you like a brother and entrusts you with important matters, how can you attack and kill Gan Ning because of your personal grudges?" If Gan Ning dies, even if the Supreme Being does not pursue it, you are a subordinate, it is also a crime. ”
Lü Meng was a filial piety, and after listening to his mother's words, he understood in his heart.
He personally came to the Ganning boat, greeted him with a smile, and said: "Xingba (Ganning character), the old mother is waiting for you to eat, hurry up and give me ashore." ”
Gan Ning was full of shame, shed tears, and choked on Lu Meng and said, "I failed you." ”
He went with Lu Meng to see his mother, and feasted on the day.
Once, Sun Quan said to Lü Meng: "Now that you hold an important position and hold power, you cannot but study." ”
Lü Meng resigned, saying that there were many things in the army and there was no time to study.
Sun Quan got angry and said, "Do I want you to study the Confucian classics and become a doctor?" I just want you to go through the books and learn about what has happened in the past. You say there are many things, can you be as busy as I am? I also read a lot and think I'm getting a lot of benefits. ”
So Lü Meng began to read, sometimes in his dreams, and accumulated over time, reading more books than Su Ruqi was old.
Lu Su arrived at Lukou, passing through Lü Meng's station.
In his mind, Lü Meng was still the same as before, but he was just a samurai.
Someone said to him, "General Lü's meritorious name is becoming more and more prominent, and now you can't look at him with old eyes, so you should still visit him." ”
Lu Su then went to visit Lü Meng.
When the wine was drunk, Lü Meng suddenly asked him: "You are shouldering a heavy responsibility, close to Guan Yu's defense zone, what strategy will you adopt to prevent unexpected things from happening?" ”
Lu Su didn't expect him to ask this question, and in a hurry, he casually replied, "Let's talk about it later depending on the situation." ”
Lü Meng said solemnly, "Although Sun and Liu are a family now, Guan Yu is really a general like Xiong Hu, so how can he not plan a plan?" ”
So he analyzed the situation in detail and stated the stakes.
After hearing this, Lu Su was horrified, and he rose up from the seat, approached Lü Meng, patted him on the back, and said with admiration: "Lü Ziming (Lü Mengzi), I really didn't expect that your talent and strategy had reached such a level. ”
He also said, "With your current talent, you are no longer the Amun of Wu County." ”
Lu Meng laughed and said, "Three days after the farewell, when you look at each other with astonishment." Big brother, you understand this truth too late. ”
This is the origin of the idiom "Wuxia Amun" and "Looking at Each Other with Astonishment", and it is also the origin of the famous phrase "Three days of Shibetsu, when the eyes are impressed".
Lu Su went to see Lü Meng's mother again, and the two became friends and had a close relationship.
