The Three Kingdoms is a period of splendid and talented people in the history of the mainland. Because of this, many dramatic novels have created many interesting stories that will be known to future generations on this theme. However, many people only have a superficial understanding, resulting in many historical truths being ignored and becoming "cold knowledge", so what is the cold knowledge in the Three Kingdoms that is not well known to the public?
One
The Three Kingdoms are actually very short.
The Broad Sense of the Three Kingdoms refers to the ninety-six years from the Yellow Turban Rebellion (184) at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty to Sima Yan's elimination of the Wu State and the unification of the world (280), while the Narrow Sense of the Three Kingdoms refers to the 60 years from Cao Pi's usurpation of Han (220) to the fall of the Wu State. Among them, the coexistence of Wei, Shu, and Wu was only thirty-four years from sun quan's claim to the title of emperor (229) to Liu Chan's surrender (263), which in an extreme sense did not last long for the three kingdoms.
Two
These historical events are false.
Because of the strong popularity of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", many people regard it as a canonical history, in fact, many of its plots are original or based on Luo Guanzhong's dramas. If we combine history books and research and revise it according to the order in which the Romance of the Three Kingdoms developed, then we can conclude that the plot is false several times.
First time:
"Feast Taoyuan Haojie Three Knots of Righteousness".
In fact, the three did not become brothers, in the history of the Three Kingdoms, just
"The Lord and the two of them sleep in the same bed, Brother Enruo."
Although there was no worship, from the grief of Liu Bei after the death of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, we can still glimpse the deep friendship between them.
Second time:
"Zhang Yide angrily whipped the post".
According to the history books:
"When the overseer goes to the county on official business, he first asks for advice from the Lord, but if he does not pass, he goes straight into the postmaster, and the staff is two hundred, and the silk is tied to his neck and the horse is tied, and the official is abandoned."
In fact, Liu Bei did it himself, and he beat the inspector with two hundred rods.
Fourth time:
"Mou Dong Thief Meng De Sacrifice Knife".
In fact, in history, Cao Cao did not flee in a hurry after murdering Dong Zhuo, but felt that Dong Zhuo would be defeated sooner or later, so he fled from Luoyang, but later killed Lü Bohao's family due to misunderstanding and stayed
"I'd rather bear someone than someone else!"
The famous sentence is recorded in the history books.
Fifth time:
"Breaking the barrier soldiers three British battle Lü Bu".
The incident of the Three Yings Fighting Lü Bu did not exist, and even Lü Bu did not block the combined forces of the princes at tiger prison pass, and this time Guan Yu's warm wine chopping Huaxiong was actually a figment, and the real beheading of Huaxiong was Sun Jian.
Sixth time:
"Hidden Jade Seal Sun Jian Reneged on the Promise".
In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, the Great Book of Sun Jian obtained the Chuanguo Jade Seal and was taken away by Yuan Shu. However, there is no record of the Jade Seal of the Chuanguo in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Just to create a sense of mystery, it has been adrift in word of mouth.
Eighth time:
"Wang Situ qiao makes a serial count".
This time it was Wang Yun who let the mink cicada separate Dong Zhuo and Lü Bu. And historically, the mink cicada didn't even exist, historically it was
"Bu and Zhuo's servants have an adulterous affair, and they are afraid that they will find out, and their hearts will not be at ease."
This maid is the prototype of the mink cicada. Since the mink cicada does not exist, the serial meter naturally has no way to talk about.
In fact, if you count further, almost every one or two articles are created by later generations, in the final analysis, "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is a novel after all. As a novel, it is already quite excellent, it combines the history of the Three Kingdoms, as well as the word of mouth of the people of the city from the Three Kingdoms to the next millennium, and the creation of many opera artists and jianghu artists, and it is also deserved to be listed among the four famous works.
However, if you want to understand the real Three Kingdoms, it is necessary to abandon many novel creation contents that were originally thought to be historical facts, read the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", and in the process of reading, these "cold knowledge" will be presented one by one in front of the eyes, revealing a more real Three Kingdoms.
