The eighth of the top ten beauties of the Three Kingdoms is Sun Shangxiang, which we have talked about in three chapters in 021, 022, and 023, and will not repeat it in line with the principle of "not redundant".

Then, the ninth beauty is Mrs. Step.

Mrs. Step, whose name is Foot Trainer (?) -238), a native of Huaiyin (now northwest of Huaiyin, Jiangsu), was of the same clan as Prime Minister Buzhi (骘zhì), and was the favorite concubine of Emperor Sun Quan of Wu. She is the most beautiful of Sun Quan's many wives.

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the mother of the foot trainer took her to migrate to the Lujiang River, and later, the Lujiang River was captured by Sun Ce, so they crossed the Yangtze River together.

Because of his beauty, he was favored by Sun Quan, and the step trainer was the most favored by Sun Quan among Sun Quan's wives and concubines.

Because the foot trainer is not jealous of people's character, he recommends many beauties to Sun Quan, so he can be favored by Sun Quan for a long time. and gave birth to two daughters, Sun Luban and Sun Luyu, for Sun Quan.

012,013 talked about the "big tiger chaos", it is her eldest daughter Sun Luban, she is also called the big tiger, basically she is the one who made Sun Wu's world a miasma.

Sun Quan later became the king of Wu and called the emperor, and he planned to establish a step trainer as the queen and empress, but the courtiers all thought that the adoptive mother of the crown prince Sun Deng, Lady Xu, should be appointed as the empress.

Sun Quan intended to be a step, so he never accepted the request of the ministers, and did not officially establish a queen for more than ten years.

Although the queen's name is not given to the foot trainer, the people in the palace call the foot trainer the queen, and the relatives of the foot trainer use the word Zhonggong to call the foot trainer.

In the first year of Chiwu (238), the foot trainer died, and the ministers, according to Sun Quan's wishes, requested to posthumously crown the empress of the foot trainer.

In February of the same year, Sun Quan posthumously crowned the foot trainer as the queen, posthumously gave the seal and ribbon, and issued a policy.

The curator wrote:

"On the first day of the leap month of the first year of Chiwu, the emperor said: Woo Hu Empress, miss the queen to assist the mandate of heaven, and bear heaven and earth with me.

"Reverent and pious day and night, as hard and industrious as I am.

"Good cultivation and dignified conduct, never lose etiquette.

"Be tolerant and benevolent, and have the virtue of being virtuous and beautiful.

"The government and the people of the whole country expect to admire and return to their hearts from far and near.

"Because the war has not been pacified, the world has not yet been unified, and because of the noble taste of the queen herself, she always has a humble heart, so I did not confer the title in time.

"I thought that the queen must enjoy the heavenly years, and she will always follow me in person and praise the blessings of God.

Suddenly, her life ended.

"I hate that my original intention was not revealed earlier, and I mourn the death of the queen and the failure to enjoy the blessings of heaven.

"The condolences are so painful.

"Now send an envoy to hold the festival, the prime minister, and the Marquis of Liling, Gu Yong, to hold the book and confer the title, and to be sacrificed like the deceased queen.

"If the soul has a spirit, it will appreciate the grace it receives. Alas! ”

Then, the remains of the foot trainer were buried in Jiang Ling.

In the Battle of Chibi, why could the main descendant Buzhi (骘zhì) replace Lu Xun as the prime minister? Because of the step trainer?

In 208 AD, Cao Cao led an army to conquer Jingzhou, and due to Liu Biao's death, Liu Cong (琮có

g) Surrender, so that Cao Cao's soldiers achieved the goal of the southern expedition without bloodshed.

After that, because some people in Jingzhou were still resistant to Cao Cao, Cao Cao should have managed Jingzhou well and gradually turned Jingzhou into a part of the Cao Wei regime.

But Cao Cao was carried away by the sudden results, coupled with the fact that he had defeated Lu Bu, defeated Yuan Shao, and pacified the north, and no one could stop him along the way, so Cao Cao did not fight steadily, but decided to conquer Liu Bei and Sun Quan non-stop.

After all, at this time, Liu Zhang of Yizhou had already sent someone to show him goodwill, and Ma Teng, the prince of Guanzhong, was under house arrest in Ye (Ye yè) City, as long as Liu Bei was destroyed and Sun Quan was attached to him, Cao Cao could easily dominate the world.

At this time, Jiangdong was also divided into two factions, the main battle and the main surrender, and Sun Quan was unable to make up his mind to resist Cao Cao because of the dispute between the two factions.

At this time, Lu Su and Zhuge Liang went to Eastern Wu together, and the purpose of Zhuge Liang's envoy to Eastern Wu at that time was to persuade Sun Quan to resist Cao Cao with Lu Su as an envoy.

In "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", there was a wonderful confrontation between Zhuge Liang and the main surrender faction, when Zhuge Liang fought against Confucianism and said that several courtiers who advocated surrender in Eastern Wu were speechless.

At that time, Zhuge Liang suppressed Zhang Zhao and Yu Tuo successively, and then one person challenged Zhuge Liang, saying that Zhuge Liang's behavior was not just to follow Su Qin and Zhang Yi to lobby Dongwu?

At that time, Zhuge Liang responded calmly, saying that Su Qin and Zhang Yi not only had the strategy of helping the people, but also were not afraid of swords, guns and swords, and they were heroes among the people, and the ministers present at the moment were all advocating surrender because they were afraid of Cao Cao, how could they dare to laugh at Su Qin and Zhang Yi?

Zhuge Liang's words made the other party speechless.

And this courtier who was suppressed by Zhuge Liang after Zhang Zhao and Yu turned over was Buzhi (骘zhì).

In "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", Bu Zhi (骘zhì) is an out-and-out main surrender faction, he not only advocated surrender before the Battle of Chibi, but also captured Fan Jiang and Zhang Da during Liu Bei's Eastern Expedition, and returned Shu Han with Zhang Fei's head, which shows his small courage.

But in fact, before the Battle of Chibi, Buzhi (骘zhì) was just a Haiyan chief, and he was not qualified to persuade Sun Quan to surrender, so the main surrender of Buzhi (骘zhì) was just a plot made up by Luo Guanzhong.

However, although Bu Zhi (骘zhì) was not famous, it was surprising that he was able to replace Lu Xun as the prime minister of Eastern Wu later.

What kind of ability did that step zhi (骘zhì) have to have such a high status in Soochow?

The reason why Bu Zhi (骘zhì) was able to become the prime minister of Eastern Wu was because he did have this qualification and ability.

You must know that Jiaozhou is remote, and at the same time, the forces of all parties are intertwined, but Buzhi (骘zhì) actually took only 1,000 people to the south, and directly leveled Jiaozhou, and then he also assisted Yizhou County's big surname Yongkai (闿kǎi) to disturb the rear of Yizhou, and returned safely with 10,000 people.

Later, during the battle of Yiling, Ma Liang plotted against Wulingman, and there were signs of rebellion in all counties of Eastern Wu.

The most important thing is that Buzhi (骘zhì), who has such extraordinary ability, also has a high emotional intelligence.

Buzhi (骘zhì) was stationed in Xiling for twenty years, and Cao Wei's border soldiers admired his prestige.

He has a generous temperament, is very popular, moody and emotional, and always behaves very respectfully both internally and externally.

Because of this, whether it is Zhuge Jin, Yan Yan, and Wei Jing, who befriended the northerners in his youth, or the rising star Lu Xun he befriended later, or even Pan Jun, who was born as a general in Jingzhou, Bu Zhi (骘zhì) can get along happily with him.

When the two palaces were fighting, even if Bu Zhi (骘zhì) was regarded as the Lu Wang Party, Lu Xun, who was standing opposite him, also admired him, which shows that Bu Zhi (骘zhì) was very good at being a person.

It is precisely because Buzhi (骘zhì) is capable and liked by others, and he is a Maocai recommended by Sun Quan, so Buzhi (骘zhì) is deeply appreciated by Sun Quan, and finally can be in a high position.

Whether his family's son-in-law has blown the pillow wind of Emperor Sun Wu for his promotion, only God knows.

After all, the harem does not interfere in politics, which is an explicit rule of the Qing Dynasty.

They are the Three Kingdoms.
