From the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty to the Three Kingdoms period, wars continued, but talented people came forth in large numbers. The theme of this issue is to fight for hegemony among the heroes, fight with the counselors and go forward bravely. However, there are also some talented and skilled people, such as Hua Tuo, an imperial doctor, Zhu Jianping, a master of physiognomy, Zhou Xuan, a master of dream interpretation, Guan Ju and others, who shine brilliantly on the historical stage of the Three Kingdoms.
Zhou Xuan, a master of dream interpretation, was born in Lean County, Qingzhou (now gaoqing county) in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. He is an official of the county.
Yang Pei, the local satrap, had a dream. In the dream, someone said to him, "Cao Cao will definitely give you a cane and medicinal liquor when he comes in August." Yang Pei asked Zhou Xuan to explain his dream. Zhou Xuan said: "crutches can help the weak, and medicinal liquor can cure diseases." On August 1, the yellow turban insurrectionary thief will be destroyed. " August 1 day, the yellow turban insurrectionary army really lost.
Later, Liu Xie, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, was in Zen, and Cao Pi, son of Cao Cao, proclaimed himself emperor and established the State of Wei. Cao Pi heard that Zhou Xuan was good at interpreting dreams. If he didn't believe it, he called him to the palace.
Cao Pi asked Zhou Xuan cunningly, "I dreamed that two tiles in the palace fell to the ground and became a pair of mandarin ducks. What is the sign? "
Zhou Xuan solemnly replied: "This indicates that someone will die suddenly in the harem."
Cao Pi couldn't help laughing and said, "I lied to you! I never had that dream at all. "
Zhou Xuan suddenly turned black and said seriously, "Dreams are people's thoughts. If you describe dreams in words, you can predict good luck or bad luck. "
Before Zhou Xuan's words were finished, a eunuch manager hurried to report to xelloss that someone in the harem was killing each other.
Xelloss was shocked by the report and immediately persuaded Zhou Xuan.
Cao Pi remembered last night's dream and asked Zhou Xuan seriously: "I dreamed last night that a green gas rose from the ground to the sky. What is the sign? "
Zhou Xuan replied, "There should be noble women who die unjustly."
At that time, Cao Pi had sent messengers to write to Empress Zhen to commit suicide. At this time, xelloss listened to Zhou Xuan's words and immediately regretted it. He sent someone to chase the messenger. Unfortunately, it was too late, and Empress Zhen died.
Later, Cao Pi asked Zhou Xuan: "I dreamed of grinding the words on the coins, trying to grind them off, but making them more obvious." What is the sign? "
Zhou Xuan suddenly became melancholy and said nothing. Xelloss was very unhappy and asked Zhou Xuan again.
Zhou Xuan had to answer: "This is your majesty's family business. Your majesty wanted to do something, but she was opposed by the queen mother. "
At that time, Cao Pi wanted to punish his compatriot Cao Zhi, but was opposed by the Queen Mother and had to demote Cao Pi.
Someone asked Zhou Xuan, "I dreamed of a straw dogs last night. What is the sign? " Zhou Xuan replied: "This indicates that you will get delicious food!" Soon, the man went out and got food treatment.
Later, the man asked Zhou Xuan again, "I dreamed of another straw dogs last night. What is the sign? " Zhou Xuan replied: "This indicates that you will fall off the carriage and sprain your foot. Be careful! " Soon, as Zhou Xuan said.
Later, the man asked Zhou Xuan again, "I dreamed of another straw dogs last night. What is the sign? " Zhou Xuan replied: "This indicates that your home is going to catch fire. Be careful! " Soon, the man's house caught fire.
The man was puzzled and asked Zhou Xuan, "I made up all the dreams I told you the other day just to test your dream interpretation skills." Why does everything you say work? " Zhou Xuan replied: "This is because the gods drive you to speak, so it is the same as a true dream."
The man asked Zhou Xuan again, "I told you three times that I dreamed of a straw dogs, and your dream interpretation results were different. Why? "
Zhou Xuan replied: "Pigs are food sacrificed to the gods, so the first time you dream about them, it indicates that you will get delicious food. After the sacrifice, the pig will be crushed by the wheel, so you dream about it for the second time, which indicates that you will fall off the car and sprain your foot. After straw dogs is crushed, it will be used as firewood for the fire, so your third dream of it indicates that there will be a fire in your home. "
Nine times out of ten, Zhou Xuan's dream interpretation skill will have an effect, which is really amazing. Now people usually think that this Duke of Zhou is Zhou Gongdan of Zhou Dynasty in Duke of Zhou, but although Zhou Gongdan created Zhouyi, there is no story about his dream interpretation ability, so I prefer to think that this Duke of Zhou is Zhou Xuan.
Dreams are really amazing things. Zhuangzi dreamed that he had become a butterfly. When he woke up, he realized that he was Zhuangzi. So Zhuangzi thought: Did my dream become a butterfly or did my butterfly dream become me? In the Tang Dynasty, Chunyu Kun dreamed that he had gone to Huai 'an and married a princess to be a satrap. When I woke up, I found that it was a dream, and Huai 'an was just an ant nest.
