During the Spring and Autumn Period, Qi Jinggong was accompanied by three bodyguards with high martial skills, one named Tian Kaijiang, one named Gongsun Jie, and one named Gu Yezi. The three people are infinite, can catch the tiger, the initial Qi Jinggong feels very good, these three people are tall, take out to eat and drink very face, at home is also quite safe. But God opened a door for someone but always closed a window, and the three of them were fierce, did not abide by many rules and regulations in the palace, did not pay attention to many ministers, and often caused trouble.
Yan Bao, with a rich political resume, assisted the Duke of Qi Ling, the Duke of Qi Zhuang, and the Duke of Qi Jing, and by the time of the Duke of Qi Jing, he was already the elder of the Three Dynasties and had a high status in the State of Qi.
On this day, Yan Baby was cooling off in front of his own door, Tian Kaijiang and the three of them passed by, and Yan Baby smiled and greeted: "Oda, where are you going?" The three of them walked straight past and ignored Baby Yan.
These three people are rude! I'm going to visit them!" Baby Yan's secret passage.
Qi Jinggong's residence
"Junshang, report something to you!" Yan Baby crawled on the ground, extremely indignant: "Tian Kaijiang, Gongsun Jie, and Gu Yezi are running amok in the palace under your love for them, and there are already many ministers crying to the old ministers about being bullied by them, and the old ministers think-"
"Stop." Qi Jinggong looked at Yan Baby helplessly, "Say, old baby, they have offended you." ”
"Huh." Yan Baby scratched his head with his hand in embarrassment and said, "These three people never look at me squarely, and they don't pay attention to me when greeting them today, Junshang, the old minister doesn't care about personal honor and disgrace, the old minister is the minister of state of our great Qi country, representing the face of your country and the country, and the old minister's humiliation is equivalent to making you and our great Qi country humiliated!" ”
"Come less of that." Qi Jinggong waved his hand and said, "You see how you can get them, in fact, I haven't been used to them for a long time." ”
"You call them and say you're going to reward them with peaches from the season, and I'll arrange the rest." Baby Yan smiled slightly.
A palace in the state of Qi
"Tian Kaijiang, Gongsun Jie, Gu Yezi, the three of you have been my bodyguard for some years, all very good, just right, the peach is ripe, the widow reads you, the peach is a good thing, rich in many dimensions ——"
"Cough, cough." Yan Bao interrupted Qi Jinggong and walked towards the three people with a peach plate: "There are only two peaches left, it is not appropriate to give them to anyone, so let's talk to Junshang about your own merits, and the merits will be eaten first." ”
"Junshang, Gongsun Jie jumped out, "I think that back then, I accompanied Jun to go hunting, and suddenly jumped out of a fierce tiger, I was not afraid of hardships, I rose to the challenge, blocked in front of Junshang, left a fist and a right punch will kill the tiger, the king can still sit here and eat peaches, that is all my credit." ”
"Is there such a thing?" Yan Baby looked at Qi Jinggong.
"Hey." Qi Jing covered his face with his hands and was silent.
"Wow! Give you the biggest. Yan Bao handed the largest of the two peaches to Gongsun Jie.
"Look what you can stand." Tian Kaijiang sneered, "Back then, I was ordered to go on a crusade against Xu Guo, captured thousands of enemy troops, and the surrounding countries were trembling, is your credit greater than mine?" ”
Yan Baby's pupils dilated, and he looked at Qi Jinggong again: "Is this also true?" ”
Qi Jinggong frowned, then eased up, and said helplessly: "What he said was a bit exaggerated, but it was almost the same." ”
"Well, that's how you look like a little Jay." Yan Bao said as he gave the remaining peach to Tian Kaijiang.
"What about me?" Gu Yezi saw that the peaches were finished, and stood on the table in a hurry, shouting loudly: "When Junshang went to the Jin Kingdom for a state visit, passing by the Yellow River, there was a water monster that opened its blood basin from the river and ate Junshang's war horse in one bite. Now I can't even eat a peach. The more Gu Yezi said, the more he felt that he was wronged and cried, "Cold heart, Junshang, wow, wow, wow... I might as well die. ”
When Tian Kaijiang and Gongsun Jie saw this, they felt very guilty in their hearts and said in unison: "Ye, you have been wronged, we really don't deserve to eat peaches." ”
The two men took out their swords as they spoke and committed suicide.
"Junshang, Xiao Ye, you see this is making trouble." Yan Bao's hands spread out to show that he was helpless.
Tian Kaijiang and Gongsun Jie fell in a pool of blood, Gongsun Jie saw his former two comrades-in-arms lying quietly next to him, the past came to mind like a slide, and his eyes were moist: "I think that when our three brothers drank blood wine and worshiped the handle, now you are forced to die by me, Huangquan Road is not alone, I will accompany you!" As soon as the words fell, Gu Yezi also drew his sword and killed himself.
Qi Jinggong was like a wooden chicken at this time, he had not yet reacted, why did he eat a peach and eat these three brothers to death? He looked at Baby Yan.
Yan Bao's voice was a little choked: "Junshang, the three warriors died before they made meritorious achievements, and they should be buried thickly!" ”
Qi Jinggong: "Old baby, just you and me, what else are you pretending?" Qi Jinggong was a little speechless.
Baby Yan: "... ”
This is the origin of "two peaches killing three soldiers", in the Three Kingdoms period Zhuge Liang's "Liang Father Yin": "Once the dynasty was rumored, two peaches killed three soldiers." In the Tang Dynasty Li Bai's poem "Fear of Hunger": "Two peaches kill three soldiers, and false swords are like frost." It's all about this story, as the old saying goes, "Overflowing will overflow, and arrogance will be defeated." ”。 The death of the three men who are warriors also tells us from the opposite side: humble wisdom. Mencius said: "He who loves others will always love him; he who respects others will always respect him." "Respect is the basic criterion of interaction between people, and it is also the embodiment of personal cultivation. Only by respecting others can we win the respect of others.
