Liu Chan of the Shu Kingdom and Sun Hao of the State of Wu were the two fallen monarchs of the Three Kingdoms, and later generations had different opinions and opinions about the personality and intelligence of these two fallen monarchs. So, who is liu chan or sun hao with higher intelligence?
Let's take a look at Liu Chan first.
When liu chan is mentioned, the world first thinks of such an allusion: Ah Dou who cannot be supported. Ah Dou is Liu Chan's nickname, and the reason why he "can't afford to support" is very simple: Ah Dou has the help of Gestapo talents such as Zhuge Liang, and as a result, because of the reuse of villains, he eventually becomes the king of the country.
At the same time, it is widely believed that Liu Chan's "intelligence" was low, because after he was demoted, Sima Asked him at a banquet that he wanted to miss the Shu kingdom. Liu Chan replied with 7 words: "Here is happy, do not think about Shu"! It is because of these 7 words that Liu Chan was put on the hat of ultra-low intelligence.
However, modern experts rehabilitated Liu Chan, saying that he "could not afford to support" was completely imposed on his head, and the demise of the Shu state was not Liu Chan's responsibility, but caused by objective factors and forced by historical trends. The objective factor refers to the 6 Northern Expeditions and 9 Northern Expeditions of Zhuge Liang and Jiang Weilao's division, and it should be known that Liu Bei died of illness in the White Emperor's City because of the defeat at the Battle of Yiling, and at this time the Shu State had been tossed to pieces. After Liu Chan succeeded to the throne, he took Liu Bei's advice in mind, regarded Zhuge Liang as his "father", and handed over all the power in the dprk to him. After Zhuge Liang's death, Ah Dou remained in power alone for 30 years, during which he certainly reused eunuchs and villains such as Huang Hao, but this was not the main reason for the demise of the Shu state.
In short, Liu Chan's 41 years of rule in his life are enough to prove that he is not "unable to support", on the contrary, he is quite capable of governing the country. And after he was forced to surrender, the phrase "happy here, do not think" is not a manifestation of mental inferiority, but a manifestation of resourcefulness. After all, at that time, he was already under the fence, and his fate was in the hands of others, and he said this, which completely dispelled Sima Zhao's vigilance and concern for him. It was precisely because of this that he was given the title of Duke of Anle, and Liu Chan was finally able to die well.
Second, let's look at Sun Hao.
Sun Hao is Sun Quan's grandson. Sun Hao was not eligible to succeed to the throne, but because Sun Quan's most favored and important crown prince Sun Xiu died prematurely, the other sons were killed and injured because of the struggle for power and profit. In the end, in desperation, Sun Quan had to look for an heir from his grandchildren and finally chose Sun Hao.
As everyone knows, Sun Quan, who is a man of great talent, has lost his eyes this time, because Sun Hao is the one who really "can't afford it". After Sun Hao succeeded to the throne, he soon indulged in alcohol and brutally killed, and as a result, Eastern Wu soon declined. Finally, in 280 AD, Eastern Wu was destroyed by the Western Jin Dynasty after the Shu state, and Sun Hao was made the Marquis of Guizhi by Sima Yan!
After Liu Chan surrendered, he was made a duke, but Sun Hao was only Hou?
Some people believe that Liu Chan and Sun Hao face different monarchs. When the Shu state was destroyed, the ruler of the State of Wei was Sima Zhao, and by the time of the fall of Eastern Wu, the ruler had been replaced by Sima Yan, and the different monarchs led to differences in their status and rank after surrender.
In fact, the real reason is that Sun Hao is the real "unaffordable" Ah Dou. Sun Hao's talent is not only much lower than Liu Chan's, but also his intelligence is much lower than Liu Chan's, as evidenced by some examples.
After Sun Hao surrendered, probably borrowing from Sima Zhao's strategy toward Liu Chan, Sima Yan held a banquet to entertain Sun Hao and Wu Guo's former ministers. As a result, after three rounds of drinking, Sima Yan asked Sun Hao to write a poem with "Erru Song" to help the wine.
Sun Hao is not Bai Ding, his mind turned, and soon he chanted: Once with Ru as a neighbor, now with Ru as a subject, a glass of wine on Ru, so that Ru Shou Wanchun!
The word "Ru" refers to Sima Yan, the king of a country, how can he make his subordinates call him "Ru"? Sun Hao's poems are obviously a great disrespect and insult to Sima Yan! Sima Yan was very angry after hearing this, but the topic was self-inflicted, and he was not good at attacking, so he had to break his teeth and swallow it in his stomach.
Coincidentally, on another occasion, Jia Chong, a minister of the Jin Dynasty, asked Sun Hao: "Wenjun is in the south, every time he chisels people's eyes and peels off people's faces, what kind of punishment is this?" This, of course, is a criticism of the brutality and inhumanity of Sun Hao's rule in Eastern Wu. And Sun Hao was not a fuel-saving lamp, and immediately retorted 15 words: "Those who kill the king and those who rape and return disloyalty will be punished." "This means that for the unscrupulous thieves who kill the king, they should goug their eyes and peel their skins!" It alludes to the "evil deeds" that Jia Chong did--the crime of killing the king. Jia Chong had killed Cao Wei's emperor Cao Wei, and he became a confidant of the Sima family.
It is precisely because of Sun Hao's unobstructed mouth and great disrespect that he finally lived only four years before he "suddenly left". Although the history books do not record the internal cause of his death, historians speculate that the murderer behind Sun Hao's death is likely to be Sima Yan or Jia Chong. After all, Sima Yan and Jia Chong directly poisoned Sun Hao for the sake of their reputation, so they chose to kill secretly.
As a prisoner, Mingzhe's self-preservation is the first priority, but Sun Hao is quick to talk for a while, and finally ends up with a bad ending. This is in stark contrast to Liu Chan's surrender to the Jin Dynasty, and the intelligence of the two is self-evident.
