Zhou Yu's joke that Zhuge Liang's wife was ugly was originally from the same camp. Why did Zhou Yu tease Zhuge Liang?

The reason is that Zhou Yu felt that he was always suppressed by Zhuge Liang in talent, so he finally found a shortcoming and couldn't help but make fun of each other. But in the end, he didn't succeed in teasing the other party, and he was teased by the other party in turn, because Zhuge Liang's reply bottom line suggested that Zhou Yu was cuckolded. Besides, the two of them have not worked together for a long time, so they are not in the same camp.

Zhou Yu is actually a talented person, but his light is always obscured by the presence of Zhuge Liang at the same time. So he was very angry about it, so he regarded Zhuge Liang as his competitor and always wanted to beat Zhuge Liang secretly. The appearance of Zhuge Liang's wife provided him with this opportunity. After all, Xiao Qiao's beauty is incomparable to Zhuge Liang's wife.

At a banquet, Zhou Yu deliberately suggested making friends to kill time. After getting the consent, he told the first couplet he had prepared long ago, which was directed at Zhuge Liang's mediocre wife. But Zhuge Liang did not get angry because of this, but gave the bottom line very calmly. The bottom line is simply that Cao Cao attacked Dongwu because he was greedy for Xiao Qiao. As Xiao Qiao's husband, Zhou Yu naturally couldn't hear such words, and he was so angry.

In fact, the truth of this matter remains to be verified, because it is not recorded in the official history. The real Zhou Yu in history is not as narrow as this story shows. In fact, he and Zhuge Liang get along very well. Both of them are talented people and cherish each other more than envy.
