It can be found in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms: Back 54, "Wu Guotai Buddhist Temple meets the groom Liu Huangshu's bridal chamber to continue the love affair" and back 55, "Xuande's wisdom inspires his wife Kong Ming Zhou Gongjin".
But it ended in failure ... lost his wife, lost his soldiers.
When Liu Qi died of illness, Soochow immediately sent Lu Su to see Liu Bei and demanded Jingzhou in the name of mourning. Under the planning and arrangement of Zhuge Liang, the purpose of Lu Su's trip was not achieved, and he only got back a piece of paper like waste paper. It is empty talk of "borrowing Jingzhou temporarily and sending it later". Lu Su was forced to make a bet with Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang. Zhou Yu gnashed her teeth at the result. Just then, the news of the death of Mrs. Liu Beigan came from Jingzhou, and Zhou Yu was overjoyed. He immediately designed a scam, using Sun Quan's sister's daughter-in-law to put Liu Bei under house arrest as a hostage, and then coerced Zhuge Liang and others to return Jingzhou.
When Lu Su met Sun Quan with Zhou Yu's letter, Sun Quan immediately approved Zhou Yu's plan and appointed Lv Fan to propose to Jingzhou. Liu Bei knew Zhou Yu's intention and was reluctant. Zhuge Liang was a shoo-in and urged Liu Bei to agree to this marriage. He confidently said to Liu Bei, "Although Zhou Yu is resourceful, he always fails to meet my expectations. As long as I make one or two moves, I can guarantee that Zhou Yu is at a loss. I guarantee that your master has a wife, and Jingzhou has lost 10 thousand. " In October of the 14th year of Jian 'an (209), after everything was ready, Zhuge Liang sent general Zhao Yun to lead 500 soldiers to Wu Dong to get married with Liu Bei. Before he left, Zhuge Liang gave Zhao Yun three clever schemes to collect in person, and then confessed in this way.
When Liu Bei and his party arrived in Wudong, Zhao Yun opened the first kit. So he called 500 soldiers and ordered them to wear red clothes and go to Xu Xu, the capital of Soochow, to buy holiday gifts and articles. Everyone said that the news that Liu Bei married and had children in Soochow made it known to the whole city. In his sleeve, Kong Ming also taught Liu Bei to visit Sun Ce and Joe Lao Guo, Er Qiao's father, Zhou Yu's wife, and Liu Bei followed. He took sheep and wine, went to worship Joe, and told about his special trip to get married.
Joe Lao Guo got the news and went to the palace to congratulate Sun Quan's mother, Wu Guotai. When Wu Guotai heard this, he was scared. He sent someone to ask Sun Quan to reply, and at the same time he sent someone into the city to inquire. The dispatched people came back soon and said that what Joe said was true. The couple had already rested in the inn, and the accompanying 500 foot soldiers also bought pigs, sheep and fruits in the city to get married. Wu Guotai was taken aback. When Sun Quan arrived, Wu Guotai was so angry that he burst into tears.
Sun Quan knew that he was betrayed, so he had to tell the truth. He said, "It was Zhou Yu who planned to get married. In the name of marriage, he earned Liu Bei and wanted Jingzhou. If Liu Bei doesn't return Jingzhou, get rid of him first. " Mrs. Guo was even more angry when she heard this. She cursed Zhou Yu and said, "That boy Zhou Yu had no intention of taking Jingzhou at all, but he made up his mind about my daughter and used this honey trap. If Liu Bei is really killed, my daughter will be a widow. How will she be a person and a matchmaker in the future? This will not miss her life! " Joe also played the drums from the side. He said: "If you use this plan, even if you win Jingzhou, you will be laughed at by the whole world. How can this work! " Sun Quan was stupefied and speechless. Wu Guotai was still very angry. He kept cursing Zhou Yu. Joe Lao Guo advised her: "Liu Xuande is a relative of the Han Dynasty. It is better to go with the flow and recruit him as a husband, so as not to make public and lose face." Sun Quan disagreed again. Just as Sun Quan was arguing with Joe, Mrs. Guo spoke again. She said that she would meet Liu Bei in Kanluoji tomorrow and have a blind date face to face. You can do whatever you want if you don't like it; If I like it, I will decide to marry my daughter. Sun Quan pursues filial piety. Although he is reluctant, he is helpless.
Qiao Guozhe told Liu Bei what Sun Quan and Wu Guotai wanted to see, and taught Liu Bei to pay attention. The next day, Sun Quan and Joe met Liu Bei in Karez. When Wu Guotai saw Liu Bei, he was overjoyed and said to Joe Lao Guo, "What a good son-in-law!" Joe also said that Liu Bei had a "dragon and phoenix posture" and a "sun, moon and sky table", which greatly praised Liu Bei. In this way, the marriage between Liu Bei and Sun Quan's sister was finalized by Guo Tai on the spot.
It turns out that Sun Jian's wife Wu has four sons, the eldest son Sun Ce and the second son Sun Quan. Mrs Wu's sister also married Sun Jian as her second wife. Sun Jian's second wife had a son and a daughter named Sun Ren, who wanted to marry Liu Bei's grandson's sister. Sun Ren was a martial artist since he was a child, and he often let ladies-in-waiting and maids fencing for fun. Sun Jian's wife Wu has passed away. Wu Guotai, Kanluoji's blind date, is Sun Jian's second wife and Mrs Wu's sister.
After Liu Bei and Sun Ren got married, the couple fell in love. When Sun Quan saw that the scam had come true, he sent a letter to Zhou Yu for advice. Zhou Yu is really a clever man. He soon planned to build a palace for Sun Quan, choose more beautiful women to entertain Liu Bei's eyes and ears, lose Liu Bei's heart, and make Liu Bei as famous as Zhuge Liang, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. This move really worked. Liu Bei fell in love with wine and wine in the gentle village arranged by Sun Quan, and never mentioned Jingzhou again.
Seeing that the year is approaching, Liu Bei still has no intention of returning to Jingzhou. Zhaoyun hurriedly followed Zhuge Liang's original instructions and regarded it as the second trick. Later, he went as planned, eager to see Liu Bei. He told Liu Bei, "This morning, Kongming sent someone to report that Cao Cao is sending 500,000 troops to Jingzhou. Please come back as soon as possible." When Liu Bei heard the news, he secretly discussed with Mrs. Sun and arranged to take advantage of the opportunity of going to the riverside to worship his ancestors on New Year's Day to leave Soochow. In the fifteenth year of Jian 'an (2 10), on the first day of the first month, Liu Bei and his wife announced that they would go to the riverside to worship their ancestors. Without telling Sun Quan and others, they embarked on a difficult journey back to Jingzhou. When Sun Quan learned that Liu Bei had left, he immediately ordered him to catch up. Later, still uneasy, he sent the second batch of troops, gave his sword to the Ministry, and ordered them to kill Liu Bei and his sister Sun Ren first when they caught up with him. It turned out that Zhou Yu had long been wary of Liu Bei and sent generals to command 3000 troops to station and intercept on the way to Jingzhou. In this way, Liu Bei's situation is very sinister, with Zhou Yu's men intercepting in front and two groups of pursuers sent by Sun Quan. In this critical situation, Zhao Yun moved out of Mrs. Sun's house after the third move was lifted. With her special status of loving her daughter too much and being Sun Quan's sister, Mrs. Sun tried her best to deal with the team arranged by Xian Jun and Zhou Yu. Finally, Liu Bei and others finally saved the day with the clever arrangement and support of Zhuge Liang. Just as Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang and others boarded the ship against the current, I saw Zhou Yu personally leading countless warships to chase after them angrily. When Liu Bei and others saw it, they abandoned the ship and went ashore and stopped riding horses. Zhou Yu also chased after him and went ashore to continue to catch up. When chasing the Huangzhou border, he was ambushed. Guan Yunchang, Huang Zhong and Wei Yan joined forces to kill him, and Zhou Yu was defeated. When Zhou Yu got off the boat and fled for his life, he heard Liu Bei's soldiers shouting in unison on the shore: "Zhou Lang's clever plan to secure the world, but he lost his wife and lost his soldiers." At this point, Zhou Yu's "honey trap" was shattered. Shame and anger, he let out a cry and fainted.
In ancient times, an enemy country that was difficult to conquer by direct force should be "supplemented by lewd pleasure, with wide loyalty and generous pearls and jade, to entertain beauty." Hearing this, the humble resignation Committee coincides with life. He won't argue, he won't rape, he won't settle. "It means to encourage the hedonic behavior of the enemy monarch and expand his dissolute interest. Bribe him with a lot of pearls and jade and please him with beautiful women. So he forgot to fight with me. Playing beauty tricks is universal in the world, and "heroes are sad about beauty." With the development of the times, honey trap has been widely used in diplomacy, business war, public relations, advertising, intelligence and other fields.
