Before Zhuge Liang died, Liu Chan sent someone to ask him a question, and Zhuge Liang knew that he was not stupid!
Introduction: Before liu bei died, he handed over the power of Shu Han to Zhuge Liang, telling him that if Liu Chan could assist him, he would assist him, and if he did not become talented, he could also replace him. After Zhuge Liang heard this, he was grateful to Shu Zero, and immediately made a statement with Liu Bei that he would do his best to assist Liu Chan and then restore the Han Room. Liu Bei was very relieved to hear this, so he wrote to Liu Chan to be kind to Zhuge Liang. After Liu Chan ascended to the throne, he directly worshipped Zhuge Liang as his "father" and built the Xiang Mansion for him, so that all the ministers of the DPRK and the Central Government sent administrative affairs to Zhuge Liang Mansion. After Zhuge Liang came to power, he first reconciled with the Armistice of Eastern Wu and restored the people's livelihood internally, and after a few years, the Shu Han Dynasty recovered its vitality, and Zhuge Liang also started the Northern Expedition.
At the beginning of the war, Cao Wei was not prepared, and several counties in the Longxi region were quickly taken by Zhuge Liang, and When Emperor Wei learned of this, he quickly sent Sima Yi to the western front to unify the troops against Zhuge Liang. Sima Yi's first thing he did when he took office was to rectify military discipline, behead the soldiers who could not contribute to the work, and then take 100,000 elites and confront each other, and then send the general Zhang Jaw to attack the Jieting Fortress. The Wei army's weapons and equipment were better than those of the Shu army, and under Sima Yi's reward and punishment system, morale was also high, and the Jieting Fortress was quickly taken by the Wei army, and the victory began to tilt towards the Wei army. Zhuge Liang felt in vain after some resistance, and had no choice but to retreat. Although he later made many northern expeditions, he also returned without success, and before his death, he wrote to Liu Chan to explain his posthumous affairs. After receiving Zhuge Liang's letter, Liu Chan quickly sent emissaries to comfort him, and at the same time asked Zhuge Liang a question.
The messenger asked Zhuge Liang, "Your Majesty asks you, after your death, how should your son Zhuge Zhan be arranged?" Zhuge Liang was very surprised to hear this question, and after considering it for a moment, he replied: "Your Majesty does not have to bother, there are still eight hundred mulberry trees in the courtier's house that can feed him." After the messenger got the answer, he instructed Zhuge Liang to rest well, turn around and go back to liu Chan to resume his life. Zhuge Liang saw the emissary's distant back and realized that Liu Chan was not really stupid, it was all pretended by him!
In a simple sentence, why can Zhuge Liang think that Liu Chan is not stupid? It turned out that although Zhuge Liang was a noble minister, he alone in the imperial court had the final say, and Liu Chan's role was more of a mascot, and he was only used when he was sacrificed or needed to be stamped, and he stayed in the palace at other times. Once Cao Rui sent emissaries to submit the state letter to Shu Han, and this letter of state was sent to Zhuge Liang's hand, which many ministers felt was very natural, but no one considered Liu Chan's attitude.
And Liu Chan now asked him how his son arranged, that is, he wanted to ask him how to transfer power, whether it was for your son, or for others, or for me? A simple sentence contains so many meanings, Liu Chan can ask this sentence, he is naturally not really stupid. And Zhuge Liang's reply to him was that I did not intend to give power to my son and I intended to give it to anyone, but only to you. So we can see that after Zhuge Liang's death, Liu Chan revoked the post of Chancellor, and then set up the Great Sima and the Great General, the Great Sima controlled the political power, the Great General controlled the military power, and Liu Chan controlled the two of them, and shu Han extended his life span for another thirty years.

Conclusion: Because Zhuge Liang knew how to back down, Liu Chan was very kind to his son Zhuge Zhan, and Liu Chan not only arranged for the great Confucian sect zhuge Zhan in China to stand up as a man, but also arranged for veteran generals in the army to hand over Zhuge Zhan's art of war. When Zhuge Zhan became an adult, he summoned him as a donkey, and soon after he was sent into the army, eventually becoming the second in command of the Shu Han army.
