After Sima Yi's father and son came to power, especially during Sima Zhao's reign, in order to speed up the usurpation of Cao Wei's Jiangshan, he used many conspiracies and tricks, so he was spurned by the righteous people in the world, including many close friends who were very close to him. Among these people who broke off relations with Sima Zhao, Chen Tai's identity was very special, and the final outcome was also stifling. So, what kind of character is Chen Tai?
Xun Yu was Chen Qun's father-in-law and Chen Tai's grandfather
Chen Taizi Xuanbo, the grandson of The Late Han Dynasty Shang Shu Ling Xun Yu, the son of Cao Wei Sikong Chen Qun, was known for his ability and seriousness. Sima Zhao had been friends with Chen Tai since childhood, and once asked another of Chen Tai's confidants, Wu Jie, about the difference between Chen Qun's father and son, and Wu Xi replied that Chen Qun was well-versed and elegant, knowledgeable and skillful, and superior to his son in terms of his duty to educate the world; Chen Tai was strict and disciplined, simple and capable, and better than his father in fighting for the country. Sima Zhao nodded frequently after hearing this, and agreed with Wu Xian's statement.
King Sima Jing and King Wen were all friends and relatives of Tai, and Wu Shu of Pei guo was also with Tai Shan. King Wen asked Qi Yue, "Why is Xuan Bo like his father Sikong Ye?" "It is better to be able to take the world's voice and religion as its own responsibility; the Ming Dynasty is simple and simple, and the meritorious deeds are too much." See Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms, Vol. 22, Wei Shu 22, Huan Er Chen Xu Wei Lu Biography. King Sima Jing was Sima Shi, and King Wen was Sima Zhao.
Chen Tai initially served as a loose horse attendant, serving as an adviser to the Wei Ming Emperor Cao Rui, and after the death of his father Chen Qunxue, he took the title of Marquis of Yingyin, but it was not reused until the early years of the Wei Emperor Cao Fangzheng's reign (240-243 years), but he did not achieve the position of guerrilla general. The guerrilla general was a miscellaneous general, a sipin military attaché, subordinate to the middle leader, and the general of the Horse Rider was in charge of the post of Su Wei, but he was a mid-level general.
Chen Tai only began to be reused during the reign of Emperor Cao Fang of Wei
A few years later, Chen Tai served as a general who held the festival and protected the Xiongnu, led the prefecture to assassinate shi, and was given the title of General Zhenwei, in charge of the military, political, legal and other affairs of the prefecture, and was responsible for monitoring the various tribes of the Xiongnu. During His term of office, Chen Tai was rewarded by the imperial court for his obedience to the administration of the Various Tribes of the Xiongnu. Not only that, in the face of gifts and requests from the powerful people in the capital, Chen Tai sealed them all, and when he returned to Beijing, he returned them all, and the honesty of the officials was comparable to that of his father Chen Qun.
In the ninth year of the reign (248), Chen Tai was promoted to Shangshu by the general Cao Shuang and returned to the court as an official. The following year, the Gaopingling Rebellion broke out, and Sima Yi demanded that Cao Shuang surrender his military power and promise to ensure his safety and prosperity. When Cao Shuang hesitated, Chen Tai and the attendant Xu Yun together persuaded him to accept the other party's conditions, and Cao Shuangpingsu trusted the two, and under their persuasion, agreed to surrender the military power, but was eventually destroyed.
Chen Tai was ordered to persuade Cao Shuang to surrender, but the latter was condemned to the Three Tribes
Cao Shuang's murder made Chen Tai geng, and in order to leave the court, a place of right and wrong, he asked for an external transfer, and as a result, he was appointed by the imperial court as the Assassin of Yongzhou to assist the famous general Guo Huai in fighting against Shu Han. Chen Tai stationed in the Yongliang Battlefield for seven years, repeatedly setting up odd risks, repeatedly defeating the invasion of the Shu Han general Jiang Wei, and was an opponent that made Jiang Wei extremely headache. After Guo Huai's death, Chen Tai succeeded him as the general of Zhengxi and became Cao Wei's highest military commander in the northwestern region.
In the first year of the reign of Emperor Cao of Wei (256), the second year after Sima Zhao's reign, Chen Taihui served as the right servant of Shangshu, responsible for the election and appointment of officials, during which he twice participated in the war against Wu, and increased the number of food for his merits, and one of his sons was named the Marquis of Ting and the marquis of Guannei, which was extremely glorious.
Although Chen Tai had been good friends with Sima Zhao since childhood, he claimed to be a loyal vassal of the Wei Dynasty, and he was very disagreed with Sima Zhao's behavior of seizing power and weakening the imperial family, and gradually distanced himself psychologically from him. The gap between the two sides deepened, and finally after the Wei Emperor Cao Was killed, the relationship was completely severed.
Cao Xian led a crusade against Sima Zhao, and was killed as a result
In the fifth year of Ganlu (260), the Wei emperor Cao Xian, unwilling to be humiliated and held hostage by Sima Zhao, commanded the guards and slaves in the palace to attack Sima Zhao, only to be stopped by Sima Zhao's confidant Jia Chong at Nanque. Jia Chong not only did not talk about the way of the monarch to Cao Xi, but instead instructed the general Cheng Ji to kill the king, which temporarily horrified the world. After the incident, Chen Tai and Sima Fu, the taifu, wept bitterly on Cao Xian's corpse, which made Sima Zhao, who came later, feel embarrassed.
Sima Zhao, seeing that his uncle and Fa Xiao were so "dismantling the stage", was upset with the boss in his heart, but he could not openly attack, so he was quite embarrassed to ask Chen Tai how the people of the world would look at themselves and how they should deal with this matter. Chen Tai replied indignantly, "Only by killing Jia Chong can we thank the people of the world." Sima Zhao tentatively asked if there was any other way, and Chen Tai said angrily, "Don't you need me to say something ugly?" Sima Zhao was bored with himself and walked away with a gray face. Not long after, Chen Tai was so mournful that he eventually vomited blood and died.
Because of Cao Xian's murder, Chen Tai broke with Sima Zhao
Emperor Zhiye, Sima Fu of Taifu and Shangshu's right servant, shot the corpse of Emperor Chen Tai pillow in the stock, and cried out in sorrow. When the great general entered the forbidden place, Taimi mourned, and the great general also wept at it, saying, "Uncle Xuan, what is it like me?" Tai Yue: "Unique to chop Jia Chong, less can thank the world's ears." The Great General Jiuzhi said, "Qing is thinking more about anything else." Tai Yue: "How can you make Tai relapse?" "Then vomit blood." See Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms, Vol. XXII, Huan Er Chen Xu Wei Lu Biography, citing the Wei Jin Chunqiu.
After Chen Taixue's death, he was posthumously awarded the title of Sikong (司空) and his courtesy name muhou (穆侯). Chen Tai's descendants served as prominent officials in the Wei and Jin Dynasties, and even Chen Baxian, the founding emperor of Southern Chen, was also his descendant, and his influence was evident.
