When it comes to the "acting skills" of the characters of the Three Kingdoms, I am afraid that many people will think of Liu Bei first, because Luo Guanzhong wrote a lot of liu bei's crying passages in the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", so some people interpret it: Liu Bei has benevolence and righteousness in his heart, and as soon as he cries, the people's hearts will return to him.
It is precisely because of this kind of description that there are so many paragraphs that Lu Xun commented:
"Liu Bei's virtue is almost pseudo"
Later generations of readers also praised, believing that Liu Bei's crying scene was fake and used to buy people's hearts, for example
Liu Bei fell on the slope of Changshan
Fools
It was also to buy Zhao Yun's heart.

stop! The so-called "Liu Bei loves to cry" is actually the acting image created by Luo Guanzhong, and in the history book "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", Liu Bei does not have so many crying scenes, and there is no use of "acting" to buy people's hearts; if you really want to talk about acting, the author is here to talk about
Sun Quan, Sima Yi
story of it.
Sun quan
Sun Quan called Cao Pi a vassal and promised to hand over his son Sun Deng, so Cao Pi sent emissaries to crown Sun Quan the Prince of Wei, one of whom was once a prisoner of Sun Quan's order, and this person was Hao Zhou.
Hao Zhou originally followed Yu Ban and others to fight Guan Yu, but as a result, Guan Yu took all of them as prisoners, and when Sun Quan sent troops to sneak up on Guan Yu, Yu Ban and Hao Zhou these prisoners were taken by Sun Quan.
Sun Quan was a wise man, and did not immediately release them, but at the critical moment when he needed to ease relations with Cao Pi, he first released Hao Zhou and others, and treated Hao Zhou kindly, hoping that they would be able to help themselves say good things when they returned.
Hao Zhou's brain was inflexible, he believed that Sun Quan was sincere, and even used the lives of hundreds of people in his family as a guarantee in front of Cao Pi, and when Cao Pi saw the situation, he believed it to be true.
This time, Hao Zhou went to see Sun Quan as an emissary, and Sun Quan personally set up a banquet for Hao Zhou, and at the banquet, Hao Zhou said, "O Great King! Before I came, Your Majesty (Cao Pi) did not trust you, but I guaranteed the lives of hundreds of people in my family. Hearing this, Sun Quan immediately burst into tears, pulled Hao Zhou, cried a handful of snot and tears, and said to him: "Qing can do this, what else can I say?" ”

At the end, when Sun Quan and Hao Zhou were separated, Sun Quan also pointed to the sky and swore a poisonous oath, saying that he would not fail to live up to Hao Zhou's guarantee, and would definitely send his son to Cao Pi as a hostage.
afterward...... As a result, everyone knows that Sun Quan originally fooled Cao Pi in order to stabilize Cao Pi, and finally freed up the air to fight a decisive battle with Liu Bei's revenge army. Until Lu Xun defeated Liu Bei's vengeful army at Yiling, Sun Quan did not send his son to the State of Wei.
Cao Pi was still a little unbelieving in evil and continued to send people to urge Sun Quan to fulfill his promise, but Sun Quan continued to fool around, and after more than two months, Cao Pi finally realized the reality that he was deceived by Sun Quan!
In September, Cao Pi issued an edict, and the Wei army divided into three routes to cut down Wu, and the result was that the whole line was not conquered, and they returned home in sorrow.
Sun Quan successfully resolved the crisis, and from then on, the world was divided into three points, and Sun Quan also had the ambition to become emperor.
Didn't expect that? Sun Quan's acting skills can make Hao Zhou and Cao Pi fool the letter, this level is comparable to the film emperor, right?
Sima Yi
During the reign of Emperor Cao Fang of Wei, Sima Yi and Cao Shuang were also ministers of The Orphan, Cao Shuang was young and a junior, in the early days, he had great respect for Sima Yishang, in fact, Cao Shuang, under the influence of his staff Deng Biao, Ding Mi and others, became more and more contemptuous of Sima Yi, plus Sima Yi served in the local area, and was not in the capital for several years, and Cao Shuang was in the beijing division to monopolize power and promote his cronies.
Sima Yi was an ambitious man, and his sons, brothers, and others were also officials in the Capital Division, but Sima Yi was not willing to do so, and wanted to calculate how to seize cao Shuang's power.
For a period of time after Sima Yi returned to The Beijing Division, he publicized that he was bedridden. When Cao Shuang heard that Sima Yi was unwell, he sent his close associate Li Sheng to explore the truth.
Li Sheng was in charge of the Jingzhou Assassination History at that time, and on the grounds that he was about to leave the Capital Division, he went to see Sima Yi and bid him farewell. Sima Yi naturally knew Li Sheng's intentions, so he lay on the bed and received him.
Sima Yi talked to himself on the bed and asked the maid to feed him porridge, which flowed from the corner of his mouth to his chest, looking scruffy. Li Sheng said that he was going to Jingzhou, and Sima Yi pretended to listen to the merger of the prefecture, and after Li Sheng corrected it, Sima Yi continued to pretend to be stupid.

After Li Sheng resigned and left, he quickly reported the situation to Cao Shuang, saying that Sima Yi would not live long, so Cao Shuang gave up his guard against Sima Yi and became even more unscrupulous.
In the first month of the tenth year (249), Cao Shuang and his brothers and cronies accompanied the Wei emperor Cao Fang to pay homage to Gao Pingling, when someone reminded Cao Shuang that if the capital did not keep a little confidant, there might be an accident, but Cao Shuang did not think so. really! After Cao Shuang accompanied the emperor away, Sima Yi and his sons Sima Shi, Sima Zhao, and his cronies staged a coup d'état to close the gates of Luoyang and issue an edict to Empress Guo, demanding that the general Cao Shuang and his brothers be stripped of power.
To tell the truth, at that time, Cao Shuang had the emperor and Shang Shutai in hand, and he could also issue the emperor's edict, and Sima Yi knew the stakes, so he continued to "act" and lured Cao Shuang to give up resistance.
Sima Yi asked the eunuch Jiang Ji to come forward (for Cao Shuang, Jiang Ji was also an elder), and asked Jiang Ji to write to Cao Shuang, promising that the coup d'état was only to deprive Cao Shuang of his power, and to ensure that he and his brothers were still alive and could continue to enjoy a rich life.
This was not to be counted, Sima Yi again found Lieutenant Colonel Yin Damu of the Palace. Yin Damu was once Cao Shuang's domestic slave, and because of Cao Shuang's connections, he was promoted to lieutenant colonel of the palace and worked in the palace.
Sima Yi continued to act, pulling Yin Damu to express the same wish again, and Yin Damu actually believed this bad old man. So Yin Damu also wrote a similar letter to Cao Shuang.
The people in charge of delivering the letter were Shang Shu Xuyun and Chen Tai, and Sima Yi took Jiang Ji, Yin Damu, and other cadres to send them off, and Sima Yi pointed to Luoshui outside Luoyang and swore a poisonous oath, saying that he would definitely abide by the agreement in the letter, and if he violated the oath, he would not die well.

In this way, after Cao Shuang received the letter from Jiang Ji and Yin Damu, and after hearing about Sima Yi's oath, even though there was a great si nong Huan Fan around him who strongly advised Cao Shuang to raise an army against Sima Yi, Cao Shuang and several brothers decided to surrender to Sima Yi.
In the later story, as everyone knows, soon after Cao Shuang surrendered, he was accused of treason by Sima Yiluo and exterminated the three tribes. He wanted to save the family and continue to enjoy the glory and wealth, but in the end the bamboo basket was empty.
On the other hand, Sima Yi relied on his superb acting skills to defeat Cao Shuang in political struggles, seize the power of the Cao Wei Empire, and embark on the road of power and vassaldom.
