"In March of the second year of Wei Qinglong's reign, Duke Shanyang passed away. From his abdication to his death, it was fourteen years. At the age of fifty-four, he was given the posthumous title of Xiaoxian Emperor." "In August of that year (the twelfth year of Jianxing), Liang He died of illness and died in the army at the age of fifty-four." This is recorded in "The Book of the Later Han Dynasty, Volume 9, Chronicles of Xiaoxian Emperor" and "The Chronicle of the Three Kingdoms, Volume 35, The Biography of Zhuge Liang".
When we look at the almanac, we will find that the so-called second year of Wei Qinglong and the twelfth year of Jianxing of the Shu Han Dynasty are actually the same year, that is, 234 AD. If we look at the resumes of the two people, we will find that not only did they die in the same year Both died in the same year - in the fourth year of Emperor Guanghe of the Han Dynasty (181), and their zodiac signs were Rooster.
The zodiac sign is Rooster, one is the True Dragon Emperor, and the other is Mr. Wolong. Han Xian Emperor Liu Xie and Prime Minister Zhuge Liang were born in the same year and died in the same year. What is the secret behind this? Could it be that Zhuge Liang is really Liu Xie who changed his name?
Zhuge Liang is the Han Xian Emperor Liu Xie who changed his name. This can only be said to be a good wish. In the sky of history, such a thing will never happen:
When Zhuge Liang came to prominence, Cao Cao still respected Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty; when Zhuge Liang came out, Liu Xie was a trump card in Cao Cao's hand, and he would never let it go easily. Therefore, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty Liu Xie wanted Jin Chan to escape his shell and assist Liu Bei, which was impossible and unnecessary: if Liu Xie had Zhuge Liang's literary, Taoist and military strategies, he would have killed Cao Cao long ago or taken the power to himself.
It wasn’t that Liu Xie had no chance to kill Cao Cao, it was just that he was unwilling, unable to bear it or did not dare to do it: “After Cao Cao came to the palace to do something, the emperor did not allow him to be angry, because he said: ‘If you can help each other, you will be generous; You, thank you for your kindness.' Cao lost his color and looked down to ask for it. According to the old ritual, the three princes led the troops to the court, and ordered Huben to hold it with a sword. Cao came out, looked around, sweating, and did not dare to come back to the court. "Book of the Later Han Dynasty" ·Volume 10Ⅱ·Queen's Chronicle"
If Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty was half as resolute and courageous or cruel as Zhuge Liang, ten Cao Cao would have died. Readers who are familiar with the historical materials of the Three Kingdoms of the Later Han Dynasty will know that the most important force that cannot be ignored at that time was the noble family. This group has generations of senior officials who are deeply entrenched, rich and powerful. Cao Cao has never received their sincere support. Later, Cao Pi instituted the "nine-level Zhongzheng System" to please the powerful nobles. However, in the end, Cao Wei did not escape the power of the powerful Sima family. The fate of destruction.
The actual situation at that time was probably that Cao Cao's group fell into disarray - Xun Yu, Xun You, Cui Yan and others were probably more loyal to Liu Xie than to Cao Cao, so Cao Cao was killed, and Liu Xie did not need to pay for his life, as long as he found a few Just a scapegoat is enough, such as Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei when Xu Tian was hunting (Guan Yu wanted to assassinate Cao Cao, which is recorded in many official histories).
From this point of view, Liu Xie is Liu Xie and Zhuge Liang is Zhuge Liang. It is impossible for Liu Xie to transform into Zhuge Liang to assist Liu Bei: first, Huang Chengyan and Huang Yueying will not do it; second, Liu Bei will not do it. Liu Bei would not let the emperor be his adviser. Maybe one day Zhuge Liang (Liu Xie) would become Pang Tong's second best and be shot away by a stray arrow for no apparent reason.
Since Wolong Zhuge Liang is not the incarnation of Han Xian Emperor Liu Xie, then why were they born in the same year and died in the same year? Analyze everything according to the cause and effect and the butterfly effect.
It may be an accident that these two people were born in the same year, but it would seem unnatural for people not to have some associations with the death of two of the most important figures in the Later Han and Three Kingdoms periods in the same year.
We can analyze it this way: If Zhuge Liang dies first and Liu Xie is still alive, then Duke Shan Yang will lose his last chance to return to the throne of the emperor, his hope will be shattered, he will have no interest in life, and Liu Xie will die with regrets. But the actual situation is that Duke Liu Xie of Shanyang died in the Principality of Shanyang in March (he was no longer qualified to die). In August of the same year, the Marquis of Wuxiang, the Prime Minister, the Lieutenant, and the Ling Yizhou Mu died in the army.
In other words, Liu Xie died first and Zhuge Liang died later. This way we can know that it was Zhuge Liang, the loyal minister of the Han Dynasty, who was really anxious and disappointed.
Not long ago, Zhuge Liang also described to his political enemy Li Yan the good life of everyone after the restoration of the Han Dynasty: "If Wei Zhanrui is destroyed, the emperor returns to his former residence, and he is promoted alongside the disciples, even if he can bear ten lives, it will be worse than nine evils!" The words are translated like this:
If we work together to destroy Cao Wei, kill Cao Rui, and return the emperor to the old capital, we can all be promoted and make a fortune together. At that time, not to mention adding Jiuxi, I will not refuse even if I receive ten orders - the great cause has been successful, and we deserve it High officials and generous salaries!
Here is a question: Who is the "emperor" that Zhuge Liang said "returned his former residence"? If it is Liu Chan, should his former residence be Zhuoxian, Zhuojun or Xinye, Jingzhou?
Everyone knows that Zhuge Liangliang has two things that he is determined not to do in his life: the first is to betray Liu Bei, and the second is to attack Soochow. Zhuge Liang refused to do anything, and they combined into one thing: "Assist Liu Bei with all his strength to destroy Cao Xinghan." As for Sun Quan of Soochow, it seems that he is a rookie who can be destroyed with his backhand. After killing Cao Wei, Sun Wu naturally gave up and his attitude If he has a good attitude, he will be given the position of a prince. If his attitude is bad, he will become the second Ma Teng in the capital.
Just when Zhuge Liang was ambitious to send troops to attack Wei and the frontline war was in a stalemate, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty disappeared. For Zhuge Liang, this was a bucket of cold water or even a blow to the head: Liu Xie, who was more intelligent and capable, died, who would be able to thrive in the old capital? Where is the Fuhan Room? That Adou Liu Chan who can’t be helped up?
In this way, we can answer the question that Zhuge Liang, the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty, and Liu Xie, the Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, lived and died in the same year: Zhuge Liang loyally assisted Liu Bei and never left, in order to revive the Han Dynasty; Zhuge Liang dedicated himself to death and then camped Shu Han (Ji Han), also in order to revive the Han Dynasty. The Han Dynasty; using a small number to attack the masses, using a weak enemy to defeat the strong, persisting in attacking the Wei Dynasty, is also to revive the Han Dynasty. Zhuge Liang shared the same destiny with the Han Dynasty (whose representative could be Liu Bei, Liu Chan, or even Liu Xie).
Zhuge Liang also knew that Liu Chan would not succeed. Even if he was given a kingdom, there was no guarantee that he would not follow in the footsteps of Emperor Huanling of the Han Dynasty. If Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty was still alive and Zhuge Liang "conveniently rescued" Shanyang Gong Liu Xie on his way to attack Wei, then the internal friction in the Shu-Han camp (Xichuan Group and Jingzhou Group) would be reduced, and talents from all over the world would flock in (Zhuge Liang is most lacking in talents) , at that time, Sun Quan could only bow his head obediently and achieve twice the result with half the effort in the great cause of unification.
Liu Xie passed away, Liu Chan was in mourning, and Zhuge Liang was exhausted both physically and mentally and his future was bleak. Seeing that the great cause of restoring the Han Dynasty has become a mirror, Zhuge Liang passed away five months after Liu Xie's death.
The two events may seem unrelated, but when analyzed from another perspective, another causal relationship can be seen - of course, readers have the right to express their own opinions on any historical event. :
Some people say that it is destiny that Zhuge Liang and Liu Xie lived and died in the same year. Some people say that Zhuge Liang and Liu Xie are the same person. Some people say that Zhuge Liang did not take Liu Xie seriously at all.
The author does not object to any of these views, because history becomes more exciting because of bold speculations, and the truth often emerges gradually because of debates...
But regardless of Liu Xie or Zhuge Liang, both of them were too tired, and they both worked hard for the big man. After all, they could not withstand the wheel of history. The dead are gone, let them rest in peace.
