先主少孤,與母販履織蓆為業。舍東南角籬上有桑樹生高五丈餘,遙望見童童如小車蓋,往來者皆怪此樹非凡,或謂當出貴人。 〈《漢晉春秋》曰:涿人李定云:「此家必出貴人。」〉先主少時,與宗中諸小兒於樹下戲,言:「吾必當乘此羽葆蓋車。」叔父子敬謂曰:「汝勿妄語,滅吾門也!」年十五,母使行學,與同宗劉德然、遼西公孫瓚俱事故九江太守同郡盧植。德然父元起常資給先主,與德然等。元起妻曰:「各自一家,何能常爾邪!」起曰:「吾宗中有此兒,非常人也。」而瓚深與先主相友。瓚年長,先主以兄事之。先主不甚樂讀書,喜狗馬、音樂、美衣服。身長七尺五寸,垂手下膝,顧自見其耳。少語言,善下人,喜怒不形於色。好交結豪俠,年少爭附之。中山大商張世平、蘇雙等貲累千金,販馬周旋於涿郡,見而異之,乃多與之金財。先主由是得用合徒眾。
