When Liu Bei visited the thatched cottage three times, he met Kong Ming before going to bed. When Kong Ming woke up, he recited a poem like this:
Who wakes up first from the big dream? I know myself in my life.
< p>Have a good sleep in the spring in the thatched cottage, and the sun is getting late outside the window.To be specific, it is like this:
The first time Liu Bei visited Kong Ming was after Sima recommended Kong Ming to Liu Bei. The next day, if Kong Ming was not there, it would still be acceptable. This time, Liu Bei got the information from the songs sung by the farmers in the fields. The lyrics are: "The sky is like a round cover, and the land is like a chess game; people in the world are divided into black and white, competing for honor and disgrace: those who are honored are at peace, while those who are humiliated are determined to be humble. There is a seclusion in Nanyang, and there is not enough to sleep high and sleep!" This song contains the meaning of seclusion. Interestingly, Kong Ming claimed that he "sleeps too high and sleeps too hard", but he asked farmers to sing it in the fields, and Liu Bei heard it.
Liu Bei and the others returned to Xinye. "A few days later, Xuande sent someone to inquire about Kong Ming. They reported back: 'Mr. Wolong has returned.'" So Liu Bei visited Kong Ming again. When Liu Bei visited Kong Ming for the first time but did not meet him, he "told the boy: 'If Mr. Liu comes back, Liu Bei can pay him a visit.'" Another spy found out that Kong Ming had returned, but he failed again. I thought that the boy would not fail to tell about Liu Bei's first visit after Kong Ming came back, and Liu Bei's spies would not be so cowardly that they couldn't even find out whether Kong Ming was at home. However, the strange thing is that Kong Ming went on a trip again. Liu Bei also got some information this time, which was a duet song sung by Shi Guangyuan and Meng Gongwei. The lyrics were very long and will not be quoted again. They were all "political songs." In Kongming's house, Zhuge Jun "cuddled his knees by the stove and sang: 'The phoenix is ??soaring over thousands of feet, and it cannot rest on a parasol tree; the scholar is crouching on one side, and cannot depend on his master. I am willing to work on the long acres, I love you. My house; I am proud of my music and writing, waiting for the right time. '" clearly expresses the meaning of "waiting for the right time."
During his second visit, Liu Beite left a letter to Kong Ming. However, from the "midwinter" to the "new spring", Kong Ming still delayed coming after reading the book, so Liu Bei's "Three Visits to the Thatched Cottage" came about. This time Liu Bei learned to be "good". He regarded the previous two "unexpected encounters" as bad luck, so he specially "ordered the fortune teller to pick up the seeds, choose an auspicious day, fast for three days, take a bath and change clothes, and then go to Wolonggang." Pay a visit to Kong Ming. "As the saying goes, things can only take three steps. Perhaps it was because of the "bathing fast" that I finally met Kong Ming this time. However, the meeting was also very troublesome and very interesting: I met Zhuge Jun less than half a mile away from the thatched cottage, but Zhuge Jun did not introduce him and "drifted away". When we arrived at home, it happened that Kong Ming was sleeping. After listening to Liu Bei's words of "stop reporting," the boy actually refused to report. He allowed Liu Bei to wait at the foot of the steps and Guan and Zhang to wait at the head of the courtyard without even looking at them. I guess Zhang Fei's voice was not soft, but when "Zhang Fei was furious, he said to Yun Chang: 'How arrogant this gentleman is! Seeing my brother standing at the foot of the steps, he was lying down high and couldn't sleep! Wait!" I'll go and light a fire behind the house to see if he can get up!" But the loud shouting didn't wake up Kong Ming. I don't know how deep he was sleeping! An hour later, Kong Ming woke up. As soon as he opened his eyes, he recited a poem: "Who wakes up first from the big dream? I know myself in my life. I sleep enough in the spring in the thatched cottage, and the sun gets late outside the window." What a strange habit! Then he scolded the boy and said, "Why don't you report early? Shang Rong changes his clothes." "Then he went into the back hall. After a while, Fang straightened his clothes and came out to greet him." After showing Liu Bei his talent and strategy, Liu Bei "asked" Kong Ming to come out, but he refused and said: "Liang Jiule is plowing and hoeing, too lazy to cope with the world, and cannot obey orders." After seeing "Xuan De wept... tears stained his robe" "The sleeves and skirt of the clothes were all wet", "Kong Ming saw that his intention was very sincere, so he said: 'General, I will not give up on each other, but I am willing to do the work of dogs and horses.'"
