During the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895, Gong and Wei Junior, two cowards who were afraid of death, ran away without firing a shot and gave a good Lushun city in the Great Qing Dynasty to Japan. The news spread and shocked the ruling and opposition parties, and the Qing government decided to severely punish them. Wei Dasan was simple-minded, confessed truthfully and sentenced to death. Gong Zhaoyu, an old fox, put all the blame on Wei Dasan, and ended up in prison for only three years. On the day he was released from prison, Gong Zheng went home smiling. Bowed respectfully and said, "My younger brother Zhang Lute has come to visit Liu." Gong didn't know this person, but he was respectful and didn't dare to offend. He quickly returned a gift. Zhang Lu added: "I have read several books recently and know that citizens are the masters of the country and should care about state affairs. Excuse me, brother Liu, did you give it to Lushun the year before last? Can you still pay it back? " Say and turn away.

Yu Zhao was just 60 years old after he was released from prison. He is the sixth, and June 6th is his birthday. He felt very lucky and decided to hold a grand banquet to celebrate. On the first day of the birthday, the housekeeper came to report: "I don't know who posted couplets on the door, and the people are watching." When he came out, he was ashamed and annoyed. He hurried to find someone to tear up the couplets, so he hid at home and dared not come out now. It turns out that this couplet is written like this:

My name is Uncle Liu. It's his 60th birthday. June 6th is a good day. It's perfect to meet him. I heard Mr. Zhang Lu striding through the door, calling Brother Liu Lvshun.

After three years in prison, accompanied by three beheadings, I earned three generations and three products, and my wish in life is enough. The three poorest old friends were not as small as ours, so I went to the grave.
