Brilliant since childhood, from the emperor to the minister, all appreciate him. During the conquest of Qiu Jian and Zhuge Dan, Zhong Hui built many towers. Some people compared him to Sean, a counselor of the Western Han Dynasty. He suggested that Si Mazhao should stop Cao Pi from seizing power, so Zhong Hui became Sima Yi's confidant. It was his idea that the famous Ji Kang was killed. In the first year of Jing Dynasty, Zhong Hui supported Si Mazhao's plan of cutting Shu alone, thus launching the war of cutting Shu. After the destruction of Shu, Zhong Hui made great efforts to make friends with celebrities in West Shu, and attacked Deng Ai and others, intending to stand on his own feet. However, because his officers and men did not support Zhong Hui's actions and launched a mutiny, Zhong Hui and Jiang Wei and others all died in the mutiny.

But the most powerful thing is the youngest son, Zhong Hui. Zhong Hui was very clever when he was very young. At that time, the famous minister Jiang Ji visited Zhong You's home. He was very surprised when he saw Zhong Hui. He said to Zhong You, "This child is not an ordinary person. You can tell by looking into his eyes. He has no stage fright at all. He is a brave wizard. " Later, Zhong You introduced them to Emperor Cao Rui. When Yu Zhong first met the emperor, he was scared and sweaty. Zhong Hui seems very calm, as if nothing had happened.

The emperor smiled.
