Cao Wei's 88 civil and military generals, there are 35 people who can't find the women around them, that is to say, 53 people are written before and after, that's all, who has the ability, find out again, there are red envelopes.

Shu Han's, "Five Tiger Generals" has been written before, and I will not repeat it.

On the Internet, the civil servants and generals of Shu Han are separated, and there are very few deeds, and there are very few about women, and they can't be written into chapters, so they have to be how many are and how many are less, and if they are less than one chapter, several people make up together. Fight for it all.

…… ……

Then, go past Lu Zhi and Sun Qian, and write Jian Yong.

Speaking of the hardcore brothers around Liu Bei, everyone's first reaction must be Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. wanted to tie up in Taoyuan back then, the three of them were like-minded, relied on each other in words and deeds, and became brothers of the opposite sex.

In fact, the story of Taoyuan Knot is fictional, which was made up by Luo Guanzhong in order to build the relationship between the characters and highlight the plot. In real history, there is only one person who can be called a hardcore friend with Liu Bei, and that is Jian Yong.

Jian Yong (year of birth and death unknown), the word Xianhe. A native of Zhuo County (now Zhuozhou City, Hebei Province). His surname was Geng, and the people of Youzhou said Geng as Jane, so he changed his surname to Jane. At the end of the Han Dynasty, Liu Bei was a strategist.

Jian Yong met Liu Bei when he was young, he was in the same class in primary and middle school, and he once chased a girl together - oh, it's a bad deal, it's not Jian Yong and Liu Bei, it's you, and your filthy buddy, but the meaning is similar.

When it comes to Jian Yong, many people first think of the comment of Mr. Sima Hui in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", "Sun Qian, Mi Zhu, and Jian Yong's generations are white-faced scholars, looking for chapters and sentences, and they are not people who help the world, how can they become evil people who dominate the industry?" ”

Is that really the case?

In fact, Sima Hui's words are not recorded in the history books, and it is purely a fictional paragraph made up by Luo Guanzhong here.

So, does Jian Yong have any talent? What kind of position did he hold in Liu Bei's group? And how much of a role did it play?

Regarding these questions, let's open the historical records and take a good look at the real image of Jian Yong in history.

There is a separate biography of Jian Yong in "Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms", which is listed in "Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms, Shu Shu VIII, Xu Lusun Jian Yiqin". Imagine how Chen Shou cherishes ink like gold? Being able to get such treatment as "independent biography" in his pen shows that Jian Yong can at least be regarded as a character with a certain weight.

"The Biography of Jian Yong" is very short, and the full text is only 272 words.

First of all, the biography records the origin of Jian Yong and Liu Bei, not only fellow villagers, but also partners who played together from childhood to adulthood. It can be seen that Jian Yong is indeed the earliest person to join Liu Bei Group, and he is a real entrepreneurial partner, and his qualifications are much older than Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.

Moreover, the biography also wrote that Jian Yong's personality was simple and direct, quite casual in front of Liu Bei, and he did not pay attention to the etiquette between monarchs and ministers. Even when Liu Bei later took Yizhou and proclaimed himself the king of Hanzhong, Jian Yong was still informal, and at the public banquet where everyone was sitting in danger, he was disheveled, half-lying down and drinking big......

It can be seen that the relationship between Jian Yong and Liu Bei is by no means ordinary, it can be described as a real hardcore sworn friend, a brother who knows the roots completely, otherwise he would not have been so casually indulgent in front of Liu Bei.

Since they are hardcore brothers, what kind of work is Jian Yong engaged in under Liu Bei?

According to the records in the biography, Jian Yong "followed around, often talked about guests, and exchanged missions".

It means that Jian Yong not only deals with various affairs by Liu Bei's side, but also often helps Liu Bei travel around, traveling to various places, as a lobbyist...... This shows that Jian Yong is in Liu Bei's group, doing work such as followers, assistants, internal affairs, and miscellaneous work, and also serves as some diplomats.

Jian Yong's highest moment was in the nineteenth year of Jian'an, when Liu Bei's army besieged Chengdu. At that time, Jian Yong, as Liu Bei's envoy, risked going and never returning, and entered the city single-handedly. In the end, with his incorruptible tongue, he persuaded Liu Zhang to surrender, which played a vital role in Liu Beibing's bloodless capture of Chengdu.

It can be seen from this that Jian Yong must be a person who is articulate, active in thinking, and clever and eloquent. In the position of diplomat, Jian Yong is still doing quite well.

In addition, there is also a story recorded in "The Biography of Jian Yong", which probably says that after Liu Bei entered Shu, there was a severe drought in one year, so the whole country banned wine-making in order to save food. The officials in charge of enforcing the prohibition of alcohol found the tools of brewing wine from the homes of ordinary people, and felt that they had the intention of making wine, so they prepared to punish them.

One day, Jian Yong and Liu Bei were walking on the road together, and when they saw a couple of men and women walking by, Jian Yong said to Liu Bei, "They are going to commit adultery, why don't you arrest them and punish them?" ”

Liu Bei felt strange and asked him, "How do you know?" ”

Jian Yong replied solemnly: "They all have tools for adultery hidden in their clothes, just like the wine-making utensils found in the people's houses, so they should also be punished." ”

Liu Bei was stunned when he heard this, then laughed, and then ordered to release the common people who had secretly stored the brewing vessel.

It can be seen that Jian Yong's language ability and artistic level of speaking can be described as very clever. This humorous and subtle form of advice is undoubtedly the easiest for the king to accept.

Finally, at the end of "The Biography of Jian Yong", it is also recorded that "Yongzhi is funny, all like this". It means that Jian Yong has many humorous and funny things like this.

rummaged through the wild history again, and saw that Jian Yong and Liu Bei were the same Geng, and the two played from childhood to adulthood. When Liu Bei pulled the pole to build the team, Jian Yong followed.

Liu Bei married different women at different times, but Jian Yong was unmoved. Liu Bei persuaded him, especially after entering Sichuan and Shu, to persuade him to marry a family so that he could have children to succeed. However, as soon as Jian Yong heard Liu Bei say such things, he shook his head with a smile and said, "I don't need someone to take over, what do I do if I have children?" ”

Jian Yong never married.

Could it be that he, like Zhong Hui, is a homosexual?

No, according to the records of "Three Kingdoms Shu People", Jian Yong often lingered in the flower street and willow lane, and traveled all the Chang advocates in Chengdu, and there were no advocates in it who were not familiar with him, and they all coquettishly called him "Jian Lang".

- Assuming that this is apocryphal, it is indeed in line with Jian Yong's character.

…… ……

Jian Yong's talent may indeed be limited, and it can't compare to Zhuge Liang, Guo Jia, Fu Zhu, and Zhou Yu, who can guide the country. He can't govern the country and the world, he can't go on the horse to set the world, he is relatively low-key in history, and there are not many shining points. However, he is by no means like Luo Guanzhong said in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", through the mouth of Sima Hui, he is a flashy "white-faced scholar".

It should be said that Jian Yong still has a certain talent, whether it is logistics and administrative work, or diplomatic affairs, he can do it well. More importantly, Jian Yong, as Liu Bei's staff, especially as a staff member who is close to Liu Bei, deeply trusted, and able to speak, is also quite competent.

He witnessed the development of Liu Bei Group throughout the whole process, from starting a business on the grass, to drifting around, and then to later laying down the country and becoming a prince, which can be described as a living fossil of the Shu Han Empire.

After Liu Bei pacified Yizhou and ascended to the throne of Hanzhong, Jian Yong was named "General Zhaode", with the same status as Sun Qian, second only to Lu Zhu. This is also a good ending for Jian Yong, who has limited talents, a poor family, and no background, and it is not in vain that he has worked hard all the way, and has followed Liu Bei to work for most of his life.

Today, Jian Yong's statue still stands in the Wuhou Temple in the southern suburbs of Chengdu, ranking second in the Wenchen Gallery, second only to Pang Tong, which is enough to prove his status in Shu Han.
