In the five-thousand-year history of China, the Three Kingdoms period is definitely an era of capable people, especially Zhuge Liang, who bowed down and died, and is definitely an idol in the minds of many people. On the other hand, Liu Chan, who served and loyal to Zhuge Liang in his later years, was the object of many people's scorn, and then Liu Chan was really so weak and incompetent in film and television dramas? This is not the case!
Most of the friends who liked the Three Kingdoms only saw the ancestors of the Shu Han Dynasty fighting bravely to kill the enemy outside, while Liu Chan was just enjoying himself peacefully in the rear. This is not the case. Liu Chan's life was actually very bumpy, in the early years, Liu Bei was leading the army outside, there was no time to take care of this little baby, so Liu Chan did not feel much fatherly love when he was young, until Liu Bei entered the main Hanzhong, the situation of Shu Han was stable, and Liu Chan, a small child, could also live a stable life.
In addition, there are many people who believe that Liu Chan does not learn and has no skills, but in fact, as the son of the shu Han clique boss, Liu Chan is also full of books, according to ancient books, in the early years, Zhuge Liang personally copied articles and ancient books many times to teach Liu Chan. After all, zhuge liang, a person with near wisdom who was close to the demon, personally taught, even if the talent was not good, he would be able to have good results. It's just that in the early years, with his father Liu Bei and his father Zhuge Liang in front of him, he didn't need Liu Chan to have too much performance.
Although Liu Chan had already taken the throne after Liu Bei's death, he really handled government affairs on his own after Zhuge Liang's illness and death in Wuzhangyuan, and the Shu Han at this time had been hollowed out by Zhuge Liang's six out of Qishan Before, whether it was manpower or material resources, compared to Wei and Wu, they were very weak, and the problem of talent withering away also made Liu Chan unusable, even so, Liu Chan also led the Shu Han clique to persist for nearly 30 years before being annexed by the State of Wei. If Liu Chan was really a mediocre lord who only knew how to enjoy pleasure, he would definitely not be able to persist for such a long time in the face of the powerful Wei Jun.
Later, Liu Chan led the Shu Han clique to choose to surrender, and was put under house arrest by Sima Zhao. Everyone knows the story of Le Bu Si Shu, and I will not dwell on it here, but Sima Zhao, a person with a deep heart, will not believe that he will not have a reaction because of Liu Chan's words of happiness and thought about Shu, and what makes Sima Zhao really rest assured is another thing.
Folklore has it that one day Liu Chan wrote the three words "Zhongshan Village" in his residence, Sima Zhao saw it and then decided not to kill Liu Chan, and the ministers questioned why, Sima Zhao asked the hundred officials to read these three words backwards, and in turn, the hundred officials suddenly realized that Liu Chan had no intention of reorganizing and only wanted to go to the mountains and forests to enjoy his old age. Of course, in fact, it is not so playful, and it must be read in reverse to hint at deep meaning. In fact, Liu Bei and Liu Chan were both after the King of Zhongshan Jing, so Zhongshan represented his ancestor Liu Sheng, the King of Zhongshan Jing, who had no great ambitions in his life, only knew that he was greedy for pleasure, and was a well-known playboy at that time, even so, as the king of Zhongshan Jing, he should also live in "Zhongshan Province" instead of "Zhongshan Village". Why did Liu Chan write "Zhongshan Village"?
In fact, Liu Chan wrote Zhongshan Zhai to imply that he and Zhongshan Jing Wang are the same, but as long as he can enjoy himself in peace, he does not want to have too high a status, even if he is an ordinary person, it is also possible to live in the village. After Sima Zhao saw this layer of deep meaning, he completely relaxed his heart for Liu Chan and arranged a title of "Duke of Anle" for Liu Chan to spend the rest of his life peacefully, which was also the best result for Liu Chan.
