Spoiling History: Starting from the Three Kingdoms

Speak to the wild dogs... Liu Bei smacked these words repeatedly, but remained silent.

As a ruler, wouldn't it be a breach of integrity for him to betray his ministers' trust?

Looking at his brother's face, Zhang Fei hesitated:

Brother, I'm going to kidnap Li Miao right now!

Sit down! Liu Bei was a little bit dumbfounded when Zhang Fei interrupted him:

It's just a small person, why should I take it to heart?

Seeing that Liu Bei's face was not as solemn as before, Zhang Fei just ran over and pinched Liu Bei's neck and said:

Didn't you tell me before? That hapless guy Wei Yan has a personal vendetta against Yang Yi. It's impossible to say that Wei Yan's Yi clan reported it privately to Yang Yi.

Looking at it this way, wouldn't Adou be as benevolent as Emperor Xiaowen?

Zhang Fei's words reminded Liu Bei of Emperor Wen of the Wei Dynasty, and he couldn't help but shake his head when he thought of his actions.

I just hate that Adou is still young... Liu Bei said to himself.

Kong Ming heard this and suggested: If my lord misses you, why don't you send someone to bring Adou and the two ladies?

Liu Bei was quite moved, but after thinking about it he decided to let it go:

The public of peace and happiness is born in sorrow and dies in peace and happiness.

Yizhou has Shu Road in the north and Yi Road in the east. It controls the most dangerous points in the world and is self-sufficient in fertile fields for thousands of miles.

Emperor Gaozu held Hanzhong but did not enter Shu, and Liu Adou should do the same.

As he spoke, Liu Bei also made up his mind:

Yi Xiu Shu, Yun Chang and Shang Xiang should strictly discipline Adou.

Now that the eldest brother had made up his mind, Zhang Fei said no more and just defended Adou by saying:

The final surrender may not be Adou's disaster. Perhaps the bones of the Yizhou people are too soft.

Zhang Song, Fazheng, Liu Ba:?

Zhang Fei waved his hands hurriedly: I'm talking about Qiao Zhou!

The two military advisors looked back and recounted Jiang Boyue's words. Pang Tong returned to his old ways and gently poked Kong Ming with his elbow:

What? How about sending someone to Tianshui to invite Jiang Wei?

Kong Ming would object before, but now he is a little hesitant.

Putting aside his talent, his ambition is simply too satisfying for him. Why should a good man become a thief?

It's a long way from Tianshui to here...

Moreover, the other party was still a young child. Thinking of this, Kong Ming still shook his head:

If I want to meet Jiang Wei, I still need Shi Yuan to show off his skills first. I'll wait and see how to capture Hanzhong.

Pang Tong was flattered.

[Brother Boyue is undoubtedly a loyal minister, but he is also a lonely minister.

The victorious Wei and Jin Dynasties needed a target to attack in order to win over Ji Han's old ministers. Ji Han's old ministers also needed someone to take the blame. Without too much hesitation, both sides felt that Brother Bo Yue was worthy of a great responsibility!

From the perspective of the Wei and Jin Dynasties, Jiang Wei rebelled and then surrendered, surrendered and then rebelled, which was a heinous crime!

In Ji Han's opinion, you, Jiang Wei, are a villain by resorting to military warfare and sacrificing national power to gain a private reputation!

Therefore, the evaluation of Jiang Wei in the annals of history is basically deeply tied to militarism.

Why couldn't you speak for Jiang Wei? Because they all died in the battle.

The descendants of Zhao Yun, Zhang Fei, Zhuge Liang, Huang Quan, Fu Wei, Liu Bei, etc. either died in battle or committed suicide. Even Jiang Wei was defeated and died.

The source of Jiang Wei's life's tragedy is that he truly inherited Zhuge's legacy.

But it is a pity that Jiang Wei's name is not included in Marquis Wu's deathbed instructions and list of departures.

After Wuhou, the two appointed successors were pessimistic about the Northern Expedition. In this case, Jiang Wei had no choice but to fight until he died.

After Fei Yi's death, although Jiang Wei was appointed military commander, Huang Hao's rise to power became a stumbling block for Jiang Weixin.

In the end, even when Liu Chan ordered to surrender, Jiang Wei still planned to fight to the death in order to recover sight from the sun and the moon, which can be said to have shed the last drop of blood for the Han Dynasty.

And while the ministers were being loyal, what was Liu Chan, the lord, doing? Unfortunately, Liu Chan was defeated by Cao Wei's sugar-coated bullets...

Compared with Emperor Ji Han and Duke Anle of Wei and Jin, which one had a better life? Unfortunately, no matter how you look at it, it does seem that An Le Gong is more comfortable.

For example, compare the lives of the nobles in Wei, Jin and Jihan:

The Marquis of Xia had a settlement of 2,500 households, and his family members also had a fiefdom of 1,000 households. His seven sons and two grandchildren were all granted the title of Marquis of Guannei.

Manchu favored 9,600 households and all his descendants were granted marquis status. Deng Ai even had 20,000 households living in the city.

Emperor Cao Rui himself established eight music studios, each with thousands of people, and tens of thousands of concubines and maids in the harem.

There are thousands of people who sweep the courtyard and practice singing and dancing, is Wei's own record.

In comparison, Ji Han is very shabby:

For example, Marquis Wu's family had fifteen hectares of thin farmland. According to the Jin Shu Food and Huo Zhi, the first-ranked person occupies fifty hectares...the eighth-ranked one has fifteen hectares, and the ninth-ranked one has ten hectares.

In other words, the treatment of Wuhou is similar to that of the lower class in Wei and Jin Dynasties, and considering that most of the officials in Wei and Jin Dynasty embezzled land, the land property of the ninth rank should be far more than that of Wuhou.

Was it because Marquis Wu was the only one who treated him harshly? No, you will find that compared with other people, Wuhou has become a big landowner.

According to the Records of the Three Kingdoms: Fei Yi's family had no money, his son always wore common clothes, his food was not meaty, and he could only rely on two legs when going out.

Dong He was also made of rough wood and linen. After his death, the remaining wealth of his family was less than a stone of food.

Jiang Wei did not take concubines, had no money or land, and lived with his wife in a government-issued house.

Deng Zhi did not manage the land. When he was alive, he would occasionally starve his wife because of poverty. After his death, the family was still very poor.

Zhang Yi was in the worst situation. He was not allowed to lead the army because of his illness. He went to the Guanghan governor to borrow money to cure his illness, and then he was allowed to lead the army.

Under such circumstances, Liu Chan's life was certainly not much better. The Chronicle of the Three Kingdoms records that Liu Chan wanted to have more concubines, but Dong Yun scolded him back.

Dong Yun said that the number of concubines in the harem of the ancient emperor could not be more than twelve. You have already reached the upper limit, what else do you want?

In this environment, even if Adou degenerates, there is actually not much to have fun with. Just like in the film of Lao Sanguo, no matter how mediocre Adou was when he was in power, he was just fighting crickets...

It wasn't until he came to Luoyang that Fat Man Adou found that his life had turned to a new chapter.

Sima Zhao gave Adou the title of Marquis of Ten Thousand Households, which meant that although he could not enjoy the level of Cao Pi and Cao Rui, he still ranked above ten thousand people.

Wearing beautiful clothes, feasting to excess, and singing every night are just the most basic enjoyments.

A spittoon for beauties, a wine pool and a forest of meat, and five stone powder to add to the fun, it’s not something you can’t afford to sink your teeth into.

This kind of indulgent and hedonistic life is completely different from the hard life in Shu. 】

On the light screen, the ministers in the hall saw two scenes that made them extremely divided.

They watched the pale-haired Jiang Wei, surrounded by rebel soldiers, forcing those around him to dare not get close to him with a sword, and finally committed suicide with no choice but to leave a sentence:

If my plan fails, it's destiny!

Then it rained heavily, and Wei Chen came to close his eyes and salute him.

As soon as the scene turned, they saw a plump and fat middle-aged Adou in rich robes and fine clothes, watching his concubine dancing and tasting wine, and said leisurely:

I am happy here and don't miss Shu.

Heroes die, but mediocrities live forever.

Liu Bei was stunned.

He only felt that there was still anger in his chest that had nowhere to vent. It was surging back and forth in his chest, getting stronger and stronger. Finally, he drew his sword with a scratch sound and slashed at several cases.

A wooden table turned into a pile of broken wood in an instant.

Facing the worried faces of the ministers, Liu Bei waved his hands helplessly:

I'm not angry at Adou, I'm angry at this world!

Liu Bei stood up proudly without sheathing his sword. He put the long sword in front of his eyes and flicked it lightly. The blade made a clanking sound.

Since the three brothers and I started the army, I have seen many loyal ministers as bloody and loyal as Jiang Boyue.

At that time, the three of us brothers said to ourselves, we, the Han people who want to prosper, should make our righteous and loyal ministers not in this dilemma!

result……

With a long sigh, Liu Bei sheathed his sword and stared at the light curtain in silence.

If there was one person who made the deepest impression when commenting on the generals at Wuhou Temple, Zhang Yi would undoubtedly be the first to Liu Bei.

He went to war when he was ill, led a useless flying army and fought a bloody battle with Cao Wei, and fought until the last man died for the country. He can be called a hero.

As a result, such a hero doesn’t even have money for medical treatment...

In addition, those names were all heard more than once in the light curtain. They were Ji Han's loyal ministers and good generals, but they did not receive matching treatment at all.

By this time, Liu Bei's anger towards Adou had surprisingly calmed down:

Is this Adou's fault? How can a child who only knows how to fight crickets resist the temptation of this prosperous Luoyang?

Even Liu Bei couldn't help but think of the time when he was a student when he was young.

Dog fighting, horse riding, racing, and beautiful clothes occupied all of his time and attention at that time.

Looking back now, he regretted not reading more books and asking his teacher more questions.

I am Liu Xuande...

Liu Bei looked serious and bowed to everyone in the hall:

I am truly ashamed of the ministers who care about the Han Dynasty!

[But even so, when Sima Zhao asked Adou for the second time, he expressed a completely different idea:

My late father’s grave is far away in Longshu, and I miss him every day.

Personally, I feel that Adou's two answers are just like his evaluation in history, kind but incompetent.

The fat man Adou's first real reaction was to be reluctant to miss Shu, but after being admonished by Quezheng, the kindness in his heart regained the upper hand. He respected this minister who gave up everything to follow him in times of crisis, and expressed his thoughts clumsily.

There is no doubt that Adou is the kindest monarch in the Three Kingdoms.

This kind of nerdy nature is actually no different from Liu Bei's love for dog fighting and beautiful clothes when he was young.

The difference is that Liu Bei experienced troubled times and saw with his own eyes that human life was like nothing. After going through ups and downs, he planned to end the troubled times and rebuild the Yanhan.

Adou has been well protected by Liu Bei for as long as he can remember. There are natural dangers in Shu and a father-in-law in military and political affairs. This piece of Liu's jade lacks the opportunity to be forged into strength.

When Liu Bei was beaten over and over again by this troubled world, he made up his mind to seek fame and visit virtuous people, chasing the slim hope that belonged to Ji Han.

Liu Chan, who was of the same age, was raised in a deep palace. All he could see was a square of sky drawn out by the courtyard wall, and the only people he could play with were two crickets handed over by the chamberlain.

For Emperor Zhaolie's bloodline, the stability of the deep palace and court may be the place where ambitions are locked up. 】
