During the Three Kingdoms period, the heroes who could leave their mark were all heroes Haojie, and Zhuge Liang, the chancellor of the Shu Han Dynasty, was known as the "embodiment of wisdom", and he made great contributions in many battles, burning Chibi and the Northern Expedition to the Central Plains, which were his masterpieces, and thus left his name in history.
The "Table of Teachers" even appeared in chinese textbooks, and his name has been remembered by everyone for thousands of years, and another Sima Yi with the same name as him is also a hero, but he is slightly dim under Zhuge Liang's aura.
Still
Sima Yi
He initially followed Cao Cao, and had always been hostile to Liu Bei's Zhuge Liang, and was also a defeated general under him, but the Romance of the Three Kingdoms may have deified Zhuge Liang Sima Yi, and it was not useless, after all, his ability to qualify as an opponent would not be bad.
Zhuge Liang also resisted the Northern Expedition in the Central Plains, otherwise the Northern Expedition might have really succeeded.
Sima Yi was not a small and unknown person from the family but a general who had made military achievements, and he himself was a talented man who was "very clever and erudite".
When he followed Cao Cao in his conquest of Zhang Lu, he made a suggestion that "Liu Bei's trajectory captured liu Zhang, which was a rare and good opportunity to take advantage of this opportunity to attack", but Cao Cao did not adopt it, but it did not affect his prestige.
Sima Yi had the strength, ability and ambition to eventually seize Jiangshan from the Cao family, and it is said that he left a will before his death and did not allow his descendants to visit the grave.
Generally speaking, the concept of family in feudal society is heavy, and the more descendants the ancients like to have more children and grandchildren, the more they represent prosperity, especially the sons are more things worth celebrating, and after death, the descendants can come to pay tribute and be blind.
This is where the concept of son preference comes from. In ancient times, it was believed that people had an afterlife, and that dying to reach another world was similar to the mortal world, so everyone would prepare items such as coffins before they died.
And the emperor will use funeral goods, Qin Shi Huang's terracotta warriors are this role, so that he also has military strength underground, basically no one will specifically advise future generations not to pay tribute.
Sima Yi made this decision and everyone was puzzled, and it was only a thousand years later that he understood his old treacherous giant, and this had to start from the Coup d'état of Gao Pingling.
Sima Yi, the ruler of Cao Cao, did not show ambitions, and Cao Pi trusted him very much after he ascended the throne, so during the many years of Cao's rule, Sima Yi has always been a loyal old minister.
However, he was later ostracized by Cao Shuang, when Cao Shuang, the emperor of Cao Fangdeng, was dissatisfied with the fact that his own political power was still in charge of outsiders, so he united a large number of old ministers to isolate the other side, and also moved to Taifu, who had no real power.
Enraged, Sima Yi took advantage of Cao Shuang's visit to GaopingLing to sweep the graves of a coup d'état, and the Cao family regime fell into the hands of Sima Shi. In this coup d'état, he killed many members of the Cao family.
Later, the days were not good, a coup d'état took away the efforts of several generations of the Cao family, and some people analyzed that he was afraid of others taking revenge and digging graves, so as not to let future generations worship.
According to this statement, Sima Yi did not pay too much attention to the etiquette of death.
The renewal of the imperial court was bound to have bloody sacrifices, but he did not accept the pleas of Cao Shuang and others to directly exterminate the three tribes, and he also executed all the ministers who were close to him, and more than 5,000 people died before and after.
The fierce behavior may also leave a shadow on themselves, afraid of the revenge of future generations to dig graves, so they do not let future generations worship, and they have not been found so far.
The history books record that the mausoleum was built on Shouyang Mountain, but Sima Yi asked that there be no traces on the ground, so it has not been found, and how many great tombs have been found by tomb robbers, but he has not, and has to admit that this is indeed a good way to prevent being excavated.
Extension Extension:
Sima Yi's fifth son, Sima Ling, married Zhuge Zhi's eldest daughter, so sima Yi and Zhuge Liang, the old enemies, were actually the sons and daughters.
