In the post-Zhuge Liang era, Shu Han basically continued Zhuge Liang's policy, and its political and military power was also controlled by Zhuge Liang's successor. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Jiang Wan is Zhuge Liang's first successor, but because of his illness, Jiang Wan's own political achievements are limited.

【Liu Chan's Initiatives】

Before Liu Bei died, he issued an edict to Liu Chan and said: "You are engaged in it with the prime minister, and things are like fathers", so Liu Chan trusted Zhuge Liang very much, and handed over the national power of Shu Han to him, and Zhuge Liang did not live up to Liu Chan's trust, and did his best to die. After Zhuge Liang's death, Liu Chan immediately took Shi Jiangwan, the prime minister, as the governor of the government, as the secretary of the decree and the president of state affairs. Soon, Jiang Wan was given the protection of the capital, the fake festival, the history of the Yizhou assassin, the general moved, the Shangshu was recorded, and the Anyang Pavilion Marquis was sealed, and Fei Yi, another heir of Zhuge Liang, was in charge of internal affairs.

It can be said that after Zhuge Liang's death, Liu Chan did not change his line, and split the power of the original Zhuge Liang, and controlled the military power with the general (or Sima), because Jiang Wan, Fei Yi and others served as generals, they basically went north, so the political power actually fell into the hands of Shang Shuling, and Zhuge Liang's original position of prime minister has no successor, so only Zhuge Liang has served as prime minister in the history of Shu Han, integrating military and political power, and the others are the highest as Sima, Either in charge of military affairs, or in charge of politics.

【Jiang Wan's Origin】

Jiang Wan, whose name is Gongyan, is a native of Lingling Xiangxiang. Liu Bei followed Liu Bei after occupying Jingzhou, and after he pacified Shudi, Jiang Wan was appointed as the county commander of Guangdu County, and Zhuge Liang was more optimistic about Jiang Wan from the beginning in history.

When Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang and others once went out on patrol to Guangdu County, they found that Jiang Wan ignored government affairs and was drunk and unconscious. Liu Bei was furious and wanted to put Jiang Wan to death, Zhuge Liang persuaded Liu Bei: "Jiang Wan is a tool of the society, not a talent of a hundred miles. Liu Bei always respected Zhuge Liang, so he exonerated Jiang Wan, but still deposed him.

After Liu Bei became the queen of Hanzhong, Jiang Wan was transferred to the central government to serve as Shang Shulang. After Liu Chan ascended the throne, Prime Minister Zhuge Liang opened the mansion to govern affairs, dismissed Jiang Wan as Dong Cao Peng, and promoted him as Maocai, Jiang Wan was humble and did not accept, and repeatedly recommended Liu Yong, Yinhua, Pang Yan, and Liao Chun. Zhuge Liang repeatedly encouraged him, and in a message to him, he said: "If you abandon the virtuous people in order to avoid relatives, it will cause the people to suffer, and since the people are uneasy, and indeed the internal and external officials do not understand the reason, you should do your best to display your talents, so as to show that this kind of election is fair and prudent." Later, he moved to join the army as prime minister.

When Zhuge Liang was transferred to Hanzhong, he was preparing for the Northern Expedition to Cao Wei, and Jiang Wan and Zhang Yi stayed in charge of all the affairs of the Prime Minister's Mansion. Later, Jiang Wan succeeded Zhang Yi as the prime minister and the general of the army. Every time Zhuge Liang went on an expedition, Jiang Wan often raised food, organized transportation, and replenished troops. Zhuge Liang often said: "Jiang Gongyan is loyal, elegant and generous, and should work with me to revive the Han family." Zhuge Liang then secretly said to Liu Chan: "If there is any accident among the ministers, all military affairs can be handed over to Jiang Wan." ”

[Jiang Wan in power]

After Zhuge Liang just died, the situation in Shu Han was relatively turbulent, and people near and far felt in danger. Jiang Wan, as the heir of Zhuge Liang, is very outstanding, he is above the hundred officials, he has neither a sad expression, nor a happy face, and his speech and behavior are the same as usual, so the expectations of the public are gradually convinced.

After Jiang Wan took power, he did not get carried away because of his high position, but always maintained his self-knowledge, and his actions were basically moral.

Dong Cao Peng Yang has always had a brief personality, and when Jiang Wan talks to him, he sometimes should not fail to answer. Someone wanted to frame him in front of Jiang Wan, so he said to Jiang Wan: "Isn't it too much for you to talk to Yang Xi and he doesn't answer, his arrogance to his superiors!" Jiang Wan replied: "Everyone has a different heart, just like people have different appearances, and they should admit criticism behind their backs in person, which is what the ancients warned people to pay attention to." Yang Xi wants to approve of me, but it's not his heart, he wants to disapprove of me, and he is afraid of exposing my no, so he shouldn't be silent, this is his honesty! ”

Yang Min, the superintendent, once slandered Jiang Wan and said: "I am dazed in doing things, and I am indeed inferior to my predecessors." Someone told Jiang Wan with this that the officials in charge asked them to investigate the matter and punish Yang Min, Jiang Wan said: "I am indeed inferior to my predecessors, what is there to blame Yang Min?" The official in charge said again, but Jiang Wan was not allowed to investigate. The official in charge asked Jiang Wan to interrogate Yang Min and say that he was in a daze. Jiang Wan said: "If you are not as good as your predecessors, you will be unreasonable, and if you are unreasonable, you will be dazed." What else is there to ask? Later, Yang Min committed a crime and went to prison, and everyone was worried that he would definitely die, but Jiang Wan had no prejudices in his heart, so Yang Min was exempted from serious crimes.

On the military front, Jiang Wan had earlier prepared to attack Jingzhou with Wu, and later sent Jiang Wei to seek the northwest.

In the first year of Yanxi (238), Emperor Cao Rui of Wei Ming sent Sima Yi to invade Liaodong, and Liu Chan then ordered Jiang Wan to say: "The thieves have not been eliminated, and Cao Rui is fierce and arrogant, and the people of the three counties of Liaodong can hardly endure the tyranny, so they connect with each other and separate from Wei." Cao Rui raised troops and recruited husbands on a large scale and attacked each other. In the past, the Qin Dynasty fell, Chen Sheng and Wu Guang were the first to attack, and now there is this change, this is a godsend. You should strictly manage the army, and always lead all the armies to settle in Hanzhong, and wait for the Eastern Wu to raise troops to advance northward, and the two countries will form a horn in the east and west, waiting for an opportunity to attack. He also ordered Jiang Wan to establish the Prime Minister's Mansion, and the following year, Jiang Wan was appointed as the Great Sima on the spot. Jiang Wei garrisoned Hanzhong with the general Jiang Wan, and Jiang Wan took Jiang Wei as the battalion Sima and led the partial army to fight in Qiangzhong many times.

Jiang Wan thought that Zhuge Liang had sent troops to Qinchuan many times during his lifetime, and the roads were difficult and dangerous, and it was inconvenient to come and go, so it was better to go east along the Han River and the Chu River, so Jiang Wan built a large boat and prepared to attack Wei Xing and Shangyong in Wei, but unexpectedly the old disease recurred and failed to make the trip. Most officials in the DPRK and China believe that it is easy to send troops by water, but it is not easy to return in case of failure, and it is not the best policy. The imperial court sent Shang Shu Ling Fei Yi and Jiang Wei of the Central Supervision Army to Hanzhong to try to dissuade Jiang Wan, but Jiang Wan finally gave up the original plan, and after discussing with Fei Yi and others, he sent Jiang Wei to seek the northwest.

At that time, Jiang Wan wrote to the later lord Liu Chan: "It is my duty to remove the filth for the Han family. Now Cao Wei crosses Kyushu, deep-rooted, it is not easy to get rid of it, if we join forces with Eastern Wu and form a horn force, even if we can't quickly annex Wei, we will slowly eat it away. But Wu period two or three, even not the fruit, struggling, waste sleep and forget to eat, so with Fei Yi and others to discuss, that Liangzhou terrain is dangerous, advance and retreat, Qiang, Hu people have the Han family, in the past to partial army into Qiang, Guo Huai broke away, calculate its length and short, should be the first thing, it is appropriate to use Jiang Wei for Liangzhou to assassinate the history, Jiang Wei out of the northwest, I should lead the army to follow, and Fuxian water and land access, in case there is a change in the northeast, it is not difficult to deal with. "In the sixth year of Yanxi (243), Jiang Wei was promoted to the general of Zhenxi and led the history of Liangzhou.

However, after Jiang Wan was transferred to Fuxian, his condition did not improve, but worsened day by day. After Jiang Wan left, Sun Wu's Buqi, Zhu Ran and others also thought that Shu might betray the alliance and asked Sun Quan to take precautions as soon as possible.

In the ninth year of Yanxi (246), Jiang Wan died of illness and was posthumously honored as Gonghou. His son Jiang Bin inherited the title and served as the general of Suiwu and the protector of Hancheng.
