There is a saying called "A Dou who can't be supported", which is not a good sentence, referring to the mediocre and incompetent people, also called "Ah Dou Prince".
The allusion comes from the story of the Three Kingdoms, that is, there are people as clever as Zhuge Liang who teach and assist, but Ah Dou is still so ignorant, and the great cause of the unification of Shu Han is doomed to failure.
Ah Dou has become synonymous with ignorance and incompetence, in addition to the two idioms mentioned above, but also derived a lot of related afterwords, such as "Ah Dou dang official - there is no real name", "Ah Dou dang emperor - weak and incompetent", "Liu Bei wrestled A Dou - buy people's hearts (to show people)", "A Dou's Jiangshan - white delivery" and so on.
The image of Liu Chan in film and television dramas
"Ah Dou" is from the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms and the Biography of Liu Feng", and Meng Da's letter to Liu Feng mentions: "Since Ah Dou has come as a prince, people of insight are cold. ”
However, in the Chronicle of the Three Kingdoms and the Chronicle of Emperor Ming, Taihe II notes the Yufu "Wei Luo", and the edict of Emperor Wei Ming's edict to the world calls Liu Chan "Liu Shengzhi": "(Zhuge Zhuge) Liang is the name of Mu Li lonely outside, and the inner greed is good at it." Liu Shengzhi's brothers only guarded the empty city. ”
The above two examples are orphan evidence, is Liu Chan called Ah Dou or Liu Shengzhi?
In the Three Kingdoms period, there were small names and small characters
It is customary to call people "A mou"
Whether Ah Dou is Liu Chan's nickname or small characters, we do not know, but we know that people in the Three Kingdoms era took names in addition to names and characters, as well as small names and small characters, and also used to call others "A Mou".
Those with small names and small characters, such as Cao Cao, The Character Mengde, the Small Name Jili, and the Small Character A qi;
There are small names, such as Wen Qin's son Wen Qi (tì), nicknamed Duck. Cao Cao's youngest son, Cao Gan,nicknamed Liang, was raised by Cao Pi from an early age, often referring to Cao Pi as "Awong" (during the Three Kingdoms period, his father was called Awung), and Cao Pi repeatedly corrected his younger brother, "I, Brother Ru'er." ”
Those with small characters, such as Cao Cao's son Cao Biao, small characters Zhu Hu; Cao Cao's adopted son Qin Lang, small characters Aso; Hu Lie's son Hu Yuan, small characters Harrier; Li Tong, small characters trillion; Cao Shuang, small characters Mo;
There are those who do not know whether it is a small name or a small character, such as Xun You's concubine named Ah Yuan; Cao Cao's son Cao Lin, also known as Cao Bao (Pan Mei Jian, "Leopard is the original name of Lin") or Cao Ji Leopard (Lu Ji's "Hanging Wei Wu Wu Wen" called Ji Leopard, when it is a small character);
There are those who call it "A"+ by name, such as Huang Chengyan called "A Cheng", and there is a proverb in the Three Kingdoms: "Mo is a woman who chooses a woman, and is an ugly woman who is a Cheng." Yilang Dongjing called his fellow hermit Jiao Xian "A xian"; Lu Su called Lü Meng "Amon"; Sun Quan called his close supervisor Gu Li "A Li", and later because of Tega's respect, he only called his surname "Gu" and no longer called him by his first name.
There are also those who use "A" + a certain word as a nickname, such as Cao Wei Huang's early years, the scattered riding attendants are generally held by Gao Cai Yingru, but Meng Kang relies on his status as a foreign relative to worship the scattered riding attendants, and people despise him at the time, giving him a nickname "Ah Jiu", because Meng Kang belongs to the list of nine relatives of Empress Guo.
The habit of calling people by name or nickname with "A Mou" has continued from ancient times to the present. In the Three Kingdoms period, "A Mou" could be a small character, or it could be a small character or a + name, but there was no case of "A Mou" as a small name. Adou can be a small character of Liu Chan, but it cannot be a small name, and the small name of Liu Chan can be called a bucket, and then called Adou, and the small character is promoted.
The names and table words taken by the ancients are generally related, and either have the same meaning, including similar or opposite, or compared to the same kind. Such as Cao Cao, the word Mengde, the exercise is the exercise of moral exercise. Cao Shuang, the word Zhaobo, "Zhao" and "Shuang" have bright meanings, Bo, is the rank, he is cao Zhen's eldest son, the small word "Mo" is also associated with the word "Shuang", according to the "Guangyun", Mo has the meaning of darkness and black, and the word "Shuang" just means the opposite. When Cao Shuang was young, he may have been called Amer.
Lü Meng, the word Ming, the meaning of Meng is foolish, confused, dark and unclear, without knowledge, such as ignorance and enlightenment, which is the opposite of the "Ming" in the table character. The "Biography of Jiang Biao" says: (Lu) Su (Lü) Meng's back: "I am called the eldest brother but I have a martial ear, and as for the present, I am knowledgeable and knowledgeable, not Fu Wuxia Amun." Meng Yue: "Three days of shibetsu, that is, more impressive." Here "Amun" counts as a pun, which is not only the customary title of "A + name", but also praises the "Amun" of today's "learned Andying", which is not comparable to the "Amun" ("no knowledge") of the past Wuxia Amun.

Ah Dou and Liu Shengzhi
Which is Liu Chan's name
Ah Dou, from Chen Shou's "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", Liu Shengzhi, from the Fish Feng "Wei Luo", the credibility of "Wei Luo" is not as good as the "Three Kingdoms", such as "Wei Luo" records that Liu Chan and Liu Bei were separated in the war, and among the tramps, they were sold to Liu Kuo as an adopted son, which has been examined by Pei Songzhi as a false statement. However, Liu Shengzhi's name comes from the edict of Emperor Wei Ming quoted in the Wei Luo, and has been exposed to the world and reported to Yizhou, and it is unlikely to be false.
What do scholars who study the Romance of the Three Kingdoms think? Qing Dynasty scholar Zhao Yiqing believed that the name "Liu Shengzhi" may have been misremembered in the literature, and at the same time he felt that if the minor name of the later lord was Ah Dou, the word Shengzhi also conformed to the rules of the association between the name and the word. Zhou Shouchang said more affirmatively, "The little name of the later lord is Ah Dou, so there is a zigzag of ascension." Chen Jingyun, a Qing Dynasty bibliophile and collator, believed that the bucket was regarded as "ascension". He said, "Gu Sheng and Dou characters are easy to mix, which can be seen in the "Book of Han and Food And Goods". ”
The left side rises, the right bucket word
It is a very common problem in the circulation of the literature version, such as qin lang small characters as a su, Song Ben's "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" "Asu" as "A su". The Commentary on the Sayings of the World quotes Wei Luo as also known as "Ah Ma" (阿鳔). It is not surprising that Ah Sheng was mistakenly written as Ah Dou.
According to Chen Jingyun's point of view, we have always thought that the child who was rescued by Zhao Yun's seven-in-seven-out fight and was thrown to the ground by Liu Bei was "A Dou who could not be supported", but in fact, people called "A Sheng", small names or small characters called Shengzhi, and when he became an adult, he was named Zen and the word Gonghei.
Tarzan sealed Zen
"Zen", as Zen concession, grant, and "heir" have the meaning of inheritance, and it is no problem to give each other names. Netizen Fat Mi found that Zen, when it is used as the meaning of sealing Zen, "sheng" and "Zen" are also related. Feng zen is a large-scale ceremonial event in which ancient emperors sacrificed heaven and earth to show their accomplishment. Climb Mount Tai to build soil for the altar to sacrifice the heavens, repay the merits of the heavens, called the seal; in liang father's removal of the earth as the sacrifice of the land, the merits of the earth, called Zen. The Book of Feng Zen records: "Since ancient times, the emperor was appointed, did he taste Zen? "History of Xiaowu Benji": "Sui Dengfeng Taishan, as for Father Liang, and then Zen Solemn." The Book of Han and the Chronicle of Emperor Wu added a "sheng" word before "Zen": "Sui Dengfeng Taishan, as for Father Liang, then ascend Zen solemnly." "Sheng" and "Zen" are linked, so it seems fine for Liu Chan to call "A Sheng" or "Shengzhi".
"Dengfeng Taishan" and "Sheng Zen Solemn" correspond safely, Taishan and Suran are both mountain names, Dengfeng and Sheng are synonymous, and Feng and Zen are close to each other. The Book of The Great Dai Li says: "It is to seal Mount Tai and Zen Liang Father." This is naturally reminiscent of Liu Bei's adopted son, who is also the titular eldest son Liu Feng and the second son Liu Chan, one letter after the other, such as the procedures for sacrificing heaven (sealing) and sacrificing land (Zen) in the Great Ceremony of Emperor Wu of Han. Liu Bei's ambitions, or great ambitions, can be said to be obvious.
Unfortunately, Liu Bei killed Liu Feng in order to pass on the throne to his son, and finally failed to seal Zen, and Liu Chan also gave Jiangshan to others. It is the fulfillment of the words of Zhou Zhou in the Book of Xiangyang: "The first emperor is secretly prepared, his training equipment is also, and the later lord is secretly Zen, and his training is also, such as Liu Liu has been equipped, and he should be given to people." "Bei" has the meaning of having, "Zen" has the meaning of granting, Liu Bei has the world, and Liu Chan should let Zen teach people.
Lord Liu Bei of Shu
Does the above rule out the possibility that Liu Chan is called Ah Dou? Not really. The shape of the liter and the bucket is almost error-prone, and the rise is related to the meaning of Zen, which indirectly proves that Liu Chan is also called Liu Shengzhi is reasonable, and it is also very likely that Liu Chan is called A Sheng. Dou and Zen are indeed not directly related, but dou and sheng belong to the unit of measurement, can be related in the same kind, Liu Chan small name or small character called Shengzhi, can be linked to the Zen character by the meaning of "Sheng Zen", can also be borrowed from the meaning of "Shengdou", associated with Adou. If Liu Chan's nickname is Shengzhi, the small characters A sheng or Adou can make sense, if the small characters are called Shengzhi, and the nickname is Dou, it is no problem to call Adou. After all, Ah Dou's name comes from the original text of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, and even if the biography is incorrect, it is prudent to use the original text as the basis in the absence of other direct evidence.
