Story:
During the Three Kingdoms period, Wang Lang of the Wei kingdom, due to his family's poverty, was born with a delicate and frail physique in his youth.
After he grew up, once while fleeing by boat with Hua Xin, a person asked to join them. Hua Xin immediately expressed difficulty, but Wang Lang agreed.
When the rebel soldiers caught up, Wang Lang suggested abandoning the person they had picked up. However, Hua Xin believed that saving a person should be thorough and immediately ordered the boat to set sail, ensuring everyone's safety.
