During the Three Kingdoms period, the name of Liu, Guan and Zhang Taoyuan was left in history. What was the ending of their descendants?
In 263 AD, Jiang Wei heard that the general of Wei State Zhong Hui was in Guanzhong , so he wrote a letter to Liu Chan to prepare early.
To be honest, since the death of older generation Shu Han leaders such as Liu Bei , Guan Yu , Zhang Fei , Zhuge Liang , Shu Han has been tired for so many years, and Liu Chan has long been tired. Deep down, he also understood that Shu Han was at the end of his strength and could not hold on anymore.
Therefore, when Deng Ai army approached the city, the king of northern land Liu Chen requested to fight against the water , but Liu Chan refused; the military supervisor of the South Central Army Huo Yi requested to lead troops to defend the capital, but Liu Chan still refused.
But when Guanglu doctor Qiao Zhou proposed to surrender, Liu Chan immediately agreed and hurriedly sent someone to submit a surrender form to Deng Ai.
Although Jiang Wei's army was trapped in Jiange , Shu Han was not without the power to fight. Chengdu has high walls and strong city. It is probably not as easy as Deng Ai's attempt to invade the city before the arrival of reinforcements from all over the Shu Han.
So, why did Liu Chan surrender impatiently?
Because Liu Chan is a smart person, and he has long had enough of a worried life, and he doesn't want to live forever under the fear of the Wei army coming.
More importantly, Liu Chan knew that even if he surrendered, he could still enjoy wealth and prosperity safely, and the people of Shu could be protected from the invasion of war.
So, Liu Chan would rather bear the infamy than surrender to Cao Wei . After surrendering, he was indeed treated preferentially by Cao Wei and was named "Dule of Anle County" and lived a happy retirement life.
Liu Chan's surrender was very wise. The only drawback was that his eldest son, the prince of Shu Han, was killed in the chaos army.
Of course, Liu Yu was killed and couldn't blame others. Who told him to be involved in Jiang Weizhong's uprising?
It seems that Liu Xuan has been the crown prince for more than 20 years and still can't bear to be the emperor.
After the demise of Shu Han, Liu Bei's descendants, as the royal family of Shu Han, were basically treated preferentially by Cao Wei. So, what happened to the descendants of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei? What fate do they face when Shu Han was destroyed?
What is more surprising is that no one dared to move Zhang Fei's descendants when the fall of Shu Han, but Guan Yu, who once shocked China, his family was searched and exterminated.
is also a famous general in Shu Han, and has also killed many generals under Cao Cao and . Why is the gap between the two families so big? The reason is actually very simple, mainly because of their personalities.
Guan Yu's personality was too arrogant, and even Zhuge Liang was not taken seriously by him. This also led to his lack of friends in Shu Han except for the brothers Liu Bei and Zhang Fei.
Sun Quan , who was once the Eastern Wu, admired his fame and sent someone to propose marriage to his son, hoping to become a family with him. But Guan Yu scolded Sun Quan's envoy on the spot and said that how could his tiger girl marry Sun Quan's dog?
Guan Yu's combat effectiveness was indeed unquestionable. If Guan Yu could have been twenty years younger in the battle of Xiangfan in , he might have been able to push him to Cao Wei's hometown all the way.
Unfortunately, Guan Yu was almost 60 years old during the battle in Xiangfan, and he had already passed the peak moment of his life. Otherwise, it would be not necessarily true that whoever loses and who wins.
However, although Guan Yu was nearly 60 years old at this time, his temper was still hot. He did not change his hot temper until his death, and offended all those who could offend him. Not only did the enemy hate him, but even the people on Shu Han themselves had no good impression of him.
How many people did Guan Yu offend? When Guan Yu was desperate, even Liu Bei's brother-in-law Mi Fang would rather surrender to the Eastern Wu than save him. Liu Bei's son Liu Feng also chose to stand by and watch, which eventually led to Guan Yu's defeat.
When Shu Han was destroyed, Guan Yu's family was hit again. Pang Hui killed Guan Yu's whole family in the name of revenge for his father, and no one extended a helping hand at this time.
In Romance novels, Guan Yu's image is very similar to that in historical books, but Zhang Fei's image is actually seriously distorted by the novelist.
Zhang Fei in the novel is reckless and irritable, has a bad temper, and looks very bold. In fact, Zhang Fei is both literary and martial, and looks very handsome. Although he has a bad temper, he is not the kind of unreasonable person.
In addition, Zhang Fei's handwriting is very well written and he is also good at drawing pictures of beauties and ladies.
More importantly, Zhang Fei never offended people casually in Shu Han, and he also had many good friends in the officialdom, and Guan Yu was not as good as him in this regard.
After Liu Chan reached the age of starting a family, the ministers recommended to Liu Bei that Zhang Fei's eldest daughter Zhang's can be the crown princess, and no one recommended Guan Yu's daughter.
So Liu Bei and Zhang Fei became in-laws, and the two families became more and more kinship. Zhang Fei's eldest daughter married Liu Chan, which is the future Queen Jing Ai .
Because Zhang Fei is very popular among the ministers of Shu Han, after Empress Jing Ai passed away, Liu Chan made Zhang Fei's second daughter the queen, that is, Queen Zhang . After the demise of Shu Han, Empress Zhang was moved to Luoyang with Liu Chan, and since then she has enjoyed her blessings.
In addition, Zhang Fei has two sons, the eldest son Zhang Bao died young, and the second son Zhang Shao later surrendered to Cao Wei with his brother-in-law Liu Chan and was named Liehou.
Another reason why Zhang Fei's descendants were favored by Cao Wei is that Zhang Fei has a relationship with the Xiahou family of the famous Cao Wei family, who is the son-in-law of the Xiahou family.
Zhang Fei's wife Xiahou's wife is the niece of Cao Wei's famous general Xiahou Yuan, and the Xiahou clan is quite powerful in Cao Wei. When Xiahou Yuan's second son Xiahou Ba defected to Shu Han, Liu Chan once pointed at his son to comfort him and said that this was also the descendant of Xiahou's .
has this relationship, so naturally no one dares to cause trouble for Zhang Fei's descendants.
