Who is Wu Qian? Why was he regarded as a good friend by Cao Pi, but after his death, he was called "Ugly Marquis"

How deep is the friendship between Wu Qian and Cao Pi. We can get a glimpse of it from an article we once read in our middle school, "Book with Wu Qian", this article was written by Cao Pi, who was still Shizi at that time, which roughly means that the outbreak of the epidemic in Xuchang, many friends unfortunately passed away, through this letter with his friend Wu Qian to express their feelings, sigh current events, and the deep feelings between the lines of cao Pi and Wu Qian can be seen. Then, as a friend of Emperor Cao Pi of Wei, why did Wu Tian eventually set off a storm on the title, I think this probably has to start from the following aspects.

Wu Quality Stills

First of all, the social background at that time. The Shi clan controlled the entire social resources, although Cao Cao was born in the Cold Gate of the Fa family, but they all relied on the brothers xiahou and Cao surnamed Cao to fight the world, although there was also the help of Xun Yu Xun You and other shi clans, but they were still looked down upon by the Great Confucian at that time, and the killing of Kong Rong and Yang Xiu was not so much that these two people rebelled against Cao Cao's intentions, but rather that Cao Cao attacked the family clan. Cao Pi was different, he needed to inherit the unification, consolidate his rule, and realize his own wenzhi martial arts, driven by this ideal, Cao Pi adopted the suggestion of Chen Qun, the representative of the Menmen Clan, and finally reached an agreement with the Shi Clan, that is, the "Nine Pins Zhongzheng System", which absorbed a large number of Shi clans to fight for the Cao Wei regime.

Secondly, he offended the children of the warrior clan and even the people of the city in this context. The first was to insult Dong Zhao, the head of the state, and demand that he kneel down and beg for forgiveness; second, he retaliated against Cui Lin and used public favoritism to suppress Cui Lin in disguise and demote him; third, Wu Qian liked to make friends with powerful people, but he was critical and harsh on the people in the townships, which was not tolerated by the people, and also laid the mass foundation for his future nickname of "ugly waiting."

Again, Wu Qian's origins, as well as his own debauchery. He was originally a cold door in Shandong, had no background and no backing, and completely relied on his own ability to play a role, especially to help the Wei Emperor Cao Pi win the victory in the battle with Cao Zhi's son, the contribution was indispensable, won the trust of the Wei Wen Emperor Cao Pi, and the officials worshiped him, but this did not change the same vision that the children of the Shi clan looked at him. Coupled with the fact that he himself has a mentality of "a villain is enlightened, pampered and proud", he is even more unscrupulous, which aggravates the bad attitude of the people around him.

In the end, Wu Qian offended the two people who should not be offended the most, namely the two auxiliary ministers who were later left by Emperor Cao Pi of Wei, one was Cao Zhen, a relative of the emperor and the emperor's uncle, who created "Say Fat Dao Thin" to allude to Cao Zhen's obesity and had a fierce conflict with Cao Zhen; the second was Chen Qun, a representative of the Gate Valve Clan, accusing Chen Qun of being "a non-state minister". These two people also made a big fuss about the title of Wu Qian after his death, and eventually gave Wu Qian the nickname of "Ugly Waiting".

Stills of Cao Zhen

In summary, it can be seen that Wu Zhi himself is quite talented and has also helped Cao Pi a lot. However, in dealing with the relationship between the people of the upper clan, the relatives of the emperor and the state, and the people of Pingtou, he ignored his origins and was too childlike, and eventually buried the excellent situation, and was called "ugly".
