From a very young age, we have a deep understanding of Zhuge Liang from stories such as The Three Gu Maolu and the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, and we are also amazed by his various deeds.
But Zhuge Liang had never been heard of and two brothers, and little was known about their deeds, and although they belonged to the same clan, they were each their master.
First of all, Zhuge Liang, who we are most familiar with, is also the most accomplished and talented of the three brothers, he lived a tragic life at an early age, lost his mother at the age of 3, lost his father at the age of 8, was displaced, followed his uncle Zhuge Xuan to Jingzhou, since the death of his uncle Zhuge Xuan, Zhuge Liang has lived in seclusion in Longzhong.
Corporal Liu Beilixian, Sangu Maolu, and Zhuge Liang came out of the mountain, and since then, Zhuge Liang's career has officially begun. During the Three Kingdoms period, three feet stood tall, heroes were born, Liu Bei Lixian corporal, invited Zhuge Liang three times, Zhuge Liang was very grateful to Liu Bei, so he has always followed Liu Bei and served Liu Bei, which has never changed.
Although Liu Bei was in a shortage of power and strategy, he had high moral character, persuaded people with reason, and harvested many talents, such as Zhang Fei and Guan Yu, so he could be in an undefeated position in the situation of the Three Kingdoms, of course, Zhuge Liang's credit was great
。
Zhuge Liang followed Liu Bei on his southern expedition to the north, until Liu Bei declared himself emperor, established shu Han, and worshiped The official worshiped The Chancellor, after Liu Bei's death, entrusted to Zhuge Liang, hoping that Zhuge Liang could continue to assist his son Liu Chan after his death, Zhuge Liang kept his promise, and after Liu Bei's death, he was still contributing to the country.
Later, for the sake of national stability, Zhuge Liang decided to be northernly attacked, and wrote the "Table of Renshi" to advise Liu Chan, hoping that Liu Chan could become a generation of Ming Jun, Zhuge Liang calculated when he would die, so he not only arranged his own posthumous affairs, but also arranged the marching arrangements later.
He was only 54 years old when he died, and he was really jealous of the talents, he had been working hard all his life to revive the Han Dynasty, and had always repaid Liu Bei's kindness and dedicated everything he had to Shu Han.
He single-handedly made great contributions to the politics, military, economy, culture and other aspects of Shu Han to level the world, set the country, and people lived and worked in peace and contentment, creating a happy land for people in the chaotic world.
He was a clean official in his life, never left a little property, even his children were self-sufficient, and after his death, there was not even anything to be buried, and his life could be described as beautiful and resourceful.
Zhuge Liang was known as the "dragon" of the Zhuge family, while his brother Zhuge Jin was called "tiger". His life was not as brilliant and colorful as Zhuge Liang's, and his life could be described in four words: doing nothing.
Some people may wonder, he has a younger brother like Zhuge Liang, how can he be bad? Since he is called a "tiger", how can he do nothing?
Although he has achieved nothing in this life, he can walk in peace, since he met Sun Quan's brother-in-law, his life is like a hanging, has been serving Eastern Wu, Sun Quan admired Zhuge Jin very much, not only let him rise to the rank and get rich, but also defended zhuge Jin when he was framed.
Zhuge Jin is a very special existence for Sun Quan, around Sun Quan, Zhuge Jin has been a civilian official, a military general, but he has not done anything, presumably Sun Quan is also helpless, but he has not reduced his love for Sun Quan at all, why is this?
Because Zhuge Jin is very good at guessing Sun Quan's mind, originally this kind of thing is a big taboo for the monarch, but Sun Quan is very happy to have a person who understands himself, Zhuge Jin knows Sun Quan very well, he knows what Sun Quan wants and wants to express.
He can help Sun Quan get what he wants, so Sun Quan has always attached great importance to Zhuge Jin, so Zhuge Jin can rise all the way to fame without doing anything, and even after Zhuge Jin's death, Sun Quan can reuse his descendants, and no one else has this treatment.
The other person is Zhuge Liang's younger brother Zhuge Shi, he started from scratch, conquered the battlefield, he lived a completely different life from his two brothers, Zhuge Shi and Zhuge Liang are quite different in age, when Zhuge Shi wants to come out and break in, Zhuge Liang has broken out of a world.
But Zhuge Shi did not go to his brother, but chose to break in on his own, and his life was not as smooth as the other two brothers. He started from Cao Wei's county order, step by step, down-to-earth upwards.
He spent all day hanging out with some of the sons of the family and talking about the government of the dynasty, which made the emperor at the time very dissatisfied, and directly dismissed them all, until the death of Emperor Wei Ming, he had a chance to re-enter the career.
In order to oppose Sun Quan, Zhuge Shi turned his back on Sima Yi and went to the battlefield, and then because Wang Ling plotted against him, Zhuge Jin rose step by step, and after he got the military power, the imperial court ordered him to go back to sikong, Zhuge Jin was afraid that after he returned to the dynasty, the military power would be confiscated, and Sima Yi would kill him.
Moreover, he thought that he could fight and show his ambitions, so Zhuge Zhi reversed, and this war lasted for a year, ending in Zhuge Birthday's failure. Although Zhuge Shi failed, none of his men accepted the surrender, and none of them were afraid when they were killed, and they all admired Zhuge Shi very much.
Because he has courage and strategy on the battlefield, he is called "dog" by the world, to show that Zhuge Xiang can fight a good war, but also to praise a generation of famous generals, "dog" is not what we think of as a derogatory term.
The three brothers of the Zhuge family have their own characteristics, Zhuge Liang and Zhuge Jin have all got a good ending on their own road, while Zhuge Zhi's birthday ended in tragedy, they all lived out their own style, adding a strong and colorful stroke to China's thousands of years of history.
