The reason why the ancient emperors killed the founding heroes is that they threatened the imperial power, and they will still be merciful to the founding heroes who are not threatened.
Let me tell you whether Liu Bei will kill Zhuge Liang and Guan Yu Zhang Fei after he unifies the world.
Zhang Fei
Zhang Fei and Guan Yu had followed Liu Bei since taoyuan and sold their family property to help Liu Bei form an army, which was very important to Liu Bei in the early days. Later, he traveled with Liu Bei to various places, ate and slept together, and was a brother in suffering.
After Liu Bei unified the world, how could he kill his brother in distress, and besides, Zhang Fei's personality was no threat to Liu Bei. Zhang Fei has a violent personality, jealousy and hatred, courage and no strategy, no ambition, but some small cleverness can not be counted as a strategy. And there is no way to govern the army, and there is no grace in treating generals and soldiers, and there is no military heart.
Zhang Fei also did not spend flowers and intestines, very loyal to Liu Bei, once Zhang Fei lost the battle and lost the city, his sister-in-law also did not have time to rescue him in the city, after seeing Liu Bei, he was ashamed and difficult to draw his sword and kill himself, fortunately Liu Bei blocked it in time to avoid a tragedy.
Guan yu
Since ancient times, Guan Yu has been the embodiment of loyalty and righteousness, and has been revered by later generations as a martial saint, and in ancient times, the good men of the green forest worshiped and worshiped Guan Yunchang.
The traditional virtues of the Chinese nation, benevolence, righteousness, courtesy, wisdom, and faith, Guan Yu are all readily available, and I would like to ask how many people in history have been able to do it.
Next, let's talk about Guan Yu's deeds in Liu Bei's period. In the fifth year of Jian'an, Liu Bei was defeated by Cao Cao, Liu Guanzhang was also scattered, and finally Guan Yu was surrounded by Cao Cao for escorting Gan Mi's two wives, and had to surrender to Cao Cao.
After Guan Yu was captured by Cao Cao, he did not know what to do with Guan Yu, and Cao Cao admired Guan Yu very much, and in order to keep Guan Yu, he asked Zhang Liao to persuade Guan Yu with personal feelings. Guan Yu sighed at Zhang Liao, "I know cao gong's great love for me, but I have been generously favored by general Liu Bei, and I swear to die together, not to turn my back, I will never stay, and I will leave after making merits for Cao Gong." When Cao Cao learned of this, he did not blame Guan Yu, and sighed: "The emperor does not forget his roots, and the righteous soldiers in the world are also." ”
After that, Cao Cao did not give up on retaining Guan Yu, and tried to keep Guan Yu by reward. Later, guan Yu learned of Liu Bei's whereabouts and killed Yan Liang for Cao Cao, leaving a letter of resignation. When Cao Cao found out, he did not embarrass him, but let him leave.
Guan Yu attaches great importance to loyalty and righteousness, and will not do anything harmful to Liu Bei, Guan Yu has a very high self-esteem throughout his life, and naturally will not form a party for personal gain for the sake of greed for power.
Guan Yu Zhang Fei, as Liu Bei's brother with a different surname, was right and left arm, and at the same time did not covet power, and had no dissent for Liu Bei, and Liu Bei naturally would not kill them after seizing the world.
Zhuge Liang
The only person who could be killed was Zhuge Liang, who had been very wary of strategists since ancient times, especially the founding heroes. Zhuge Liang has followed Liu Bei since the early days of Liu Bei, and Liu Bei once said: "Everything important in the army is decided by the military division, and there is no need to ask me." "It is conceivable how great Zhuge Liang's rights are.
Liu Bei's fight against the world was Zhuge Liang's advice, so his reputation in the army was extremely high, and even Guan Yu Zhang Fei had great respect for him. Before the world was fought, Liu Bei naturally tolerated it, after all, he had to rely on Zhuge Liang to fight the world for himself, and when Liu Bei unified the world, Zhuge Liang became a threat to Liu Bei, after all, the emperor's most taboo thing was to cover the lord. Of course, killing Zhuge Liang or not also depends on his own performance, if he knows how to delegate power and nurture his heavenly age, Liu Bei will naturally not move him.
In history, the emperor slaughtered too many founding heroes, whether you have different intentions or not, as long as you are a threat to the imperial power, the emperor will regard you as a big problem, and it is only a matter of time before you extend the butcher knife to you. For example, Han Xin and Liu Bowen were killed without the heart of rebellion.
Liu Bei may have killed Zhuge Liang, but he would never have killed Guan Yu Zhang Fei, and I really can't think of a reason to kill both of them.
This is just my personal opinion.
Do you think Liu Bei will kill Zhuge Liang, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei after unifying the world, and you are welcome to leave your opinion in the comment area.
