When we describe the friendship between two people as very firm, we often say that these two people are eight worship friends. However, in Chinese history, which eight prayers are referred to at the turn of the eight prayers? I believe that after reading these eight prayers, you will definitely have more respect for this idiom, and then I will introduce it to you one by one.

Guan Zhong and Bao Shuya are a pair of good friends of Qi Guo, and when they were young, they chose to do business together with a huge disparity in identity. However, when collecting money, the poor Guan Zhong was always able to get more money, so Bao Shuya's servants saw it and said this to Bao Shuya. "This Guan Zhong is really strange, there is no ability to invest money, but the ability to make money is quite large." Bao Shuya heard the servant's words, so he said to him: "But don't say this, Guan Zhong's family is poor, so he wants to take more money to support his mother, it doesn't matter if he takes more." On the battlefield, Guan Zhong was at the end every time, and everyone said that Guan Zhong was a greedy person who was afraid of death, and Bao Shuya would speak for Guan Zhong every time, "You misunderstand Guan Zhong, he is not greedy for life and afraid of death, he has to leave his life behind to take care of the old mother at home." "Later, after Gongzi Xiaobai became king, he decided to make Bao Shuya the prime minister, but Bao Shuya said to Xiao Bai that Guan Zhong was better than me in all aspects, and you should invite him to be the prime minister." Gongzi Xiaobai listened: "Guan Zhong wanted to kill me, he was my enemy." "Bao Shuya" said that he could not be blamed for this, he was also the master of all of you. Later, the company Xiaobai listened to Bao Shuya's words, and asked Guan Zhong to be the prime minister, and sure enough, Guan Zhong helped Gongzi Xiaobai to govern the Country of Qi very well, and posterity praised the friendship between them, and when the friendship was firm, they would say that they were Guan Bao's friends.

The intersection of the necks
It is actually a story of Lian Po and Lin Xiang. This story is from the chronicle of Lin Xiang. At first, Lian Po looked down on Lin Xiangru very much and was very jealous of him, but after listening to Lin Xiangru's national ambitions for him, he had such an enviable legend as Xianghe.

The fifth one is talking about the intersection of the rubber knees
