In the sixth year of Jing Yao, the Shu Han regime collapsed, and liu Chan, the last emperor of the Shu Han Dynasty, moved to Luoyang, the capital of the Wei state, and was given the title of Duke of Anle County. One day, Sima Zhao set up a banquet to entertain Liu Chan and specially instructed Ge Ji to play Shuzhong music. When the old courtiers of the Shu Han Dynasty saw the situation, they all remembered the pain of the subjugation of the country, and they all covered their faces and wept or bowed their heads in shock, but Liu Chan was at ease and did not have the slightest sadness.
Sima Zhao then asked Liu Chan, "Does An Le Gong miss Shu?" Unexpectedly, Liu Chan actually replied, "Happy here, don't think about Shuye." The old minister of Shu Han took advantage of the toilet to say to Liu Chan: "Your Majesty, Sima Zhao asked again, you first look at the top of the palace, and then close your eyes." After a while, he opened his eyes and said seriously, 'The grave of my ancestors is far away in Shudi, and I don't miss a day', so that Sima Zhao can let His Majesty return to Shu. After Liu Chan listened, he took it to heart.
After three rounds of drinking, Sima Zhao asked the same question again, and Liu Chan quickly repeated what Hao Zheng had taught him. As soon as Sima Zhao heard this, he knew that it was Hao Zheng who had taught him. Liu Chan was surprised and said, "How do you know?" After hearing this, the crowd laughed loudly, and from then on there was a pause in the words "Sima Zhao tempted Liu Chan - Le Bu Si Shu."
However, is Liu Chan really what people call "the unsupportable Ah Dou"? In fact, this was not the case, and after Liu Chan showed his honesty and loyalty at the banquet, Sima Zhao never doubted him again, thus allowing him to spend the rest of his life happily in Luoyang. In addition, it can also be seen from one thing that Liu Chan is pretending to be stupid, that is, he gave the nickname of "Five Tiger Generals".
As we all know, the "Five Tiger Generals" refer to Zhang Fei, Guan Yu, Zhao Yun, Ma Chao and Huang Zhong. After Zhang Fei's death, Liu Chan gave him the nickname "Huanhou". According to the ancient law, the word "Huan" has the meaning of "breaking the land and the country, and wuding the four sides". Therefore, this nickname is a beautiful title, which mainly commends Zhang Fei for his meritorious service in following Liu Bei's southern expedition to the northern war before his death.
Liu Chan gave Guan Yu the nickname "Marquis of Zhuangmiao". Guan Yu made many contributions to the establishment of the Shu Han dynasty in his lifetime, using the heavy rains of autumn to flood the Seventh Army, threatening the four directions, and worthy of the meaning of "Wei De Gang Wu, Victory over the Enemy and Chaos" expressed by the word "Zhuang". But the word "Miao" is a derogatory word, and the ancient thing that is not worthy of the name is called "Miao". Guan Yu's fame in the Shu Han Dynasty was not even comparable to Zhuge Liang, second only to Liu Bei, and he finally lost Maicheng. Liu Chan gave him this nickname because he thought guan Yu was not worthy of his name.
Zhao Yun was known as a victorious general during the Three Kingdoms period, and he had never suffered a defeat in his life. He was cautious, so he never made a mistake in front of Liu Bei. But he didn't do much compared to the others. So after Zhao Yun died, Liu Chan gave him the nickname "Marquis of Shunping". It means "Kindness and obedience are shunned, rule without hesitation, and deacons have a system of peace", which is more appropriate for Zhao Yun's life.
Ma Chao became famous at a young age, and his fame before he defected to Liu Bei was already very large, and he was known for his "jian yong and good war". Even Cao Cao wanted to win him over, but he didn't like Cao Cao. He was brave and courageous, so Liu Chan gave Ma Chao the nickname "Wei Hou". The word "Wei" has the meaning of "fiercely in the Congo, righteous and righteous", thus commending Mao Chao's deeds before his death.
Before following Liu Bei, Huang Zhong was old. He was resolute and courageous, and fought bravely. Therefore, after Huang Zhong's death, Liu Chan gave him the nickname "Ganghou". "Gang" in the ancient fa has the meaning of "strong and resolute, posthumously make up for the past", which is in line with Huang Zhong's life.
It can be seen from this that although Liu Chan is not good at brains on the surface, he knows everything about the achievements of these people. So, he's not really stupid, he's pretending to be stupid. Zhuge Liang once commented on him: "The court is eighteen years old, talented and benevolent, and corporal Ed. Zhuge Liang's view of people's eyes is self-evident. The reason why Liu Chan pretended to be stupid was perhaps in order to survive after the destruction of the country and not be suspected and monitored by Sima Zhao.
