After Liu Cong presented the surrender, Cao Caoxian quickly scanned the list of on-the-job officials attached to the surrender. Confused, Cao Cao asked Liu Cong, "Why isn't Liang Huliang and Huang Meng, who used to be the secretariat of Liangzhou, on this surrender book?" Where is he now? "
Liu Cong quickly replied: "Emperor Huang Meng refused to surrender, and people are still in Jingzhou."

Cao Cao immediately ordered: "Immediately block Jingzhou, and Liang Hu and Liang Huangmeng must be caught."
A few days later, one night, Cao Cao heard that there was a man outside the city who claimed to be Liang Hu and Liang, so he came to ask for an audience.
He couldn't help but be overjoyed and hurriedly ordered: "Call someone quickly."
When he saw this man named Liang Hu, he hurriedly asked someone to untie him, but at the same time he couldn't help laughing.
(Liang Hu)
This is the second time this year that Cao Cao has laughed to the sky. The first time I laughed, it was when he learned that Cai Yan, the daughter of his teacher Cai Yong, had lived in Xiongnu for twelve years, and now she was successfully redeemed from Xiongnu, and under the escort of an emissary, she successfully set foot on the news of returning to Xuchang.
Cao Cao has every reason to be happy. He likes Liang Hu's calligraphy very much. He often nails banners written by Liang Hu on the wall. Even if you March and fight, you should hang the words written by Liang Hu in the middle of the military account. Whenever I have time, I will stand and watch them quietly. He thinks Liang Hu's calligraphy is superior to his teacher Shi in momentum.
Reflection? Shu Wei? Emperor Wu Ji: "Make peace with Jingzhou, make peace with public sacrifices, fear peace, tie it under the door, transfer soldiers to pseudo-Sima, make them ministers, and make the book self-effective." The public taste hangs in the account and plays with the nail wall, that is, wins the official. The word Huang Meng is a stable person. Gong Wei's inscriptions are all about books. "
(Liang Hu Calligraphy)
This Liang Hu was a famous calligrapher from the late Eastern Han Dynasty to Cao Wei. Wei Heng, a calligrapher in the Western Jin Dynasty, recorded Liang Hu as follows:
Wang Cizhong of Shanggu pioneered the Kaifa method, which made him a master of books with many talents. Stone is the best, the largest has a thousand words, and the smallest has a thousand words, which greatly praised his ability. Sometimes you don't get paid for drinking in a restaurant, because the book is on the wall, and visitors will pay directly and count the money to destroy it. Every book needs to be cut and burned. Liang Yu was good at slapping, but he got drunk and stole his slap.
During the reign of Emperor Ling of Han Dynasty, the best calligrapher was Shi. His big characters are one foot long in diameter, and the small characters are written on an inch square bamboo slip, which can write 1000 small characters.
This stone often goes to the hotel to drink without money. After eating, he will go to the hotel owner, pick his teeth with a toothpick and ask him how much he has to pay for the wine.
After asking about the drinks, Shi began to write in public on the wall of the hotel, performing his unique calligraphy art, writing in big or small characters.
After he finishes writing, he will start asking people who read his writing for money. When you have to pay for this wine, erase all the words written on the wall at once.
In addition, every time Shi writes a good word on the signboard, he rewards himself first, then takes out a knife without stint, cuts down all the words written on the signboard, and then throws the written signboard into the fire to burn it.
In order to learn, Liang Hu took a lot of good wine and food and went to drink. Shi was drunk and hurried to see the words on the board that had not been destroyed by Shi.
In this way, Shi's calligraphy was collected in his mind by stealing, and many of his writing skills were remembered. On this basis, he further innovated and eventually became a famous calligrapher.
