There was no general Liao Hua in Shuzhong as a vanguard, but did Shuzhong just lack a general in command? Of course not, Liu Bei and even Liu Chan's men lacked wisdom and resourcefulness, so that Zhuge Liang had to bow down to the best of his ability, and died before he could succeed, making the hero cry. Turning to the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", it seems that the Shu Han camp is a smart man like Zhuge Liang, and the others are marionettes. And those who don't want to be puppets, die dead, degraded, there are seven or eight warrior heroes who are useless, even the Cao Wei camp, who is as fierce as the clouds and the rain, is reluctant to waste it.
Zhuge Liang once commented: "Pang Tong, Liao Li, Chu Zhi Liangcai, when the praise of the world industry also." Pang Tong died, and Liu Bei's attendant, Liu Chan's Changshui Lieutenant Liao Li, was also spared from the end for his words, and died of illness. Li Yan, who was also ordered by Gu, was also driven back to his hometown. Liu Weishuo, a general who was second only to Li Yan, was pulled to the street and beheaded (abandoned) because he slapped his wife twice. As for Liu Feng and Wei Yan, that's not to mention. What everyone may not know is that there is also a top talent in the Shu Han camp, who has also been innocently killed, and the reason is really not because of Ma Chao's whistle-blowing - a closer look at the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" we will find that Ma Chao really should not bear the black pot for Peng Xi's death - he needs to bear half of the responsibility at most.
Peng Xi was jointly recommended to Liu Bei by Pang Tong and Fa Zheng (tong da shan zhi, and Fa Zheng Su knew himself and caused the first lord), and Liu Bei was also quite important to Peng Xi: "The first lord also thought it strange, and several orders xi publicized the military, instructed the generals, gave the envoys the praise, and met the day and the day. Chengdu was established, the first lord led the Yizhou pastoral, and the pulling was engaged in the rule of the middle. "From a tonged apprentice (tortured as a coolie) to a state muscular zuoyi (in charge of the state election office and public affairs) above ten thousand people under one person, Peng Xi was a bit arrogant, and there was some estrangement with Zhuge Liang, the military commander of the left general's office (although Liang received Jiao outside, he could not be good internally). So Zhuge Liang went to Liu Bei many times to make a small report (repeatedly secretly saying the lord): "With a broad heart and broad ambitions, it is difficult to be safe." Because Liu Bei's most trusted adviser was Zhuge Liang, he demoted Peng Xi to become the Taishou of Jiangyang.
From one of Liu Bei's confidants, he became a Jiangyang Taishou, and it is said that this official position is not small, but Peng Xi wants to do big things and make great contributions, so he has resentment, and should never complain to Ma Chao. Everyone knows that Ma Chao, the pit daddy, has no friends in his eyes, so he reported Peng Xi's complaints to Liu Bei. However, when we look closely at Peng Xi's complaints, it seems that there is no intention of rebellion at all, and the absolute sin does not lead to death.
For the sake of fairness, let's first look at the record in the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms": Chao Asked Qiu Yue: "Qing cai has a beautiful pull, the lord and prince treat each other most seriously, that is, Qing should be on the same foot as Kong Ming and Xiao Zhi, and it is better to be a small county, and the lost people are expected?" (This remark was obviously intended to arouse Peng Xi's anger) He said, "The old ge is absurd, but it can be restored to evil!" Some people say that Peng Xi is scolding Liu Bei for being a veteran, but this is not a big deal, there was a saying in the past, called "who has not scolded the emperor behind his back", not to mention that Liu Bei is not yet the emperor, calling a veteran, it is really not a big deal, it is estimated that Liu Bei will not go too far to his heart.
The most taboo sentence reported by Ma Chao is that "the secretary is outside, I am inside, and the world is not determined." This statement really did not violate Liu Bei's taboo, because Liu Bei could not be personal in everything, in the past, it was Guan Zhang who was outside the lord, Zhuge Zhao Yun inside the lord, Peng Xi and Ma Chao set up a team to fight with Zhuge Guan Zhang, which was really a good thing in Liu Bei's eyes. Therefore, Peng Xi wrote a letter to Zhuge Liang in prison, which meant that he confessed his mistake and was soft and wanted to find a way to live. However, in this letter, in addition to admitting his mistakes and reviewing his own defense, Peng Xi also had a few sentences that were particularly puzzling: "Promoting a national soldier from the cloth, stealing Mao cai." The thickness of the molecule, who has repeated this. "The thickness of the molecule", some people say that "the generous grace of Liu Bei's son" means that Liu Bei's kindness to Peng Xi is extremely high, and he cares for him as much as his own son. But this "son", in ancient times, seems to have another interpretation, that is, an honorific title that calls the other party.
And the most puzzling thing is that Peng Xi wrote such a passage at the end of the letter: "Heaven and earth are observed, the gods have a spirit, and what words are repeated!" Your servant's own ear is clear. Work hard, self-love, self-love! In particular, the ten words "Heaven and Earth, gods have spirits, self-love, self-love" are also Peng Xi's last words, but I don't know whether this is an encouragement or a curse to Zhuge Liang, and the author has never understood why Peng Xi said this...
