Chapter 10: History, Romance, and Truth
Li Yulan frowned, stood up, and broke Cao Longxuan's hand.
Cao Longxuan didn't care about this kind of thing, he still stared straight at Wei Baozhu, although his voice was low, it had an irresistible meaning:
"When you said it just now, I thought that there was a legend on your ancestors, but it was not necessarily in the tomb of your ancestors. Now that I think about it carefully, I have some doubts, so can you tell me if there is this 'summoning heavenly wheel' in the tomb of your ancestors? ”
Wei Baozhu was alert again, and his body had retreated to the edge of the bed, unable to retreat any further.
"You, robbing the treasure, are you also here for the treasure?"
She cried out in horror.
Maybe their brother and sister don't usually use Chinese as their daily language, so it sounds a little jerky and messy, and once they are flustered, they are even more out of order.
Bai Yunfei saw that this situation was not right, so he pulled Cao Longxuan behind him with force.
Then he said to Wei Baozhu: "You misunderstood again, you decided to tell us the truth just now because he is a descendant of Cao Cao, it seems that you are not disgusted that he is a descendant of Cao Cao."
Immediately, he turned around and squeezed his eyes at Cao Longxuan, Cao Longxuan understood, so he no longer pressed Wei Baozhu excitedly, but retreated to a dilapidated wooden stool and sat down.
Seeing Cao Longxuan sitting farther away, Wei Baozhu felt a little relieved, but he still kept staring at Cao Longxuan, for fear that he would make any more scary moves.
Li Yulan hugged her gently and patted her on the back, which gave her some security.
In order to ease the atmosphere, Bai Yunfei deliberately laughed loudly:
"Haha, little sister, don't be afraid, don't be afraid, he's a person, don't look at his fierce face, in fact, he is a good person."
Then he turned around and pointed at Cao Longxuan: "He's a person, he ate a lot of bitter melons when he was a child, so he always had a bitter face, this is 'single diet syndrome'." Come on, give your little sister a smile. ”
After speaking, he winked at Cao Longxuan a few times.
To say that in this "Eight Immortals of the Earth" expedition, it is impossible for anyone to influence Cao Longxuan, except for one person, and that is Bai Yunfei.
Maybe Bai Yunfei doesn't know, Cao Longxuan has always had an idea, wanting to calmly use a saw to open Bai Yunfei's skull like in the American movie "Chainsaw", and then see how his brain is different from other people's structure.
If Cao Longxuan said this idea, he would definitely be shocked Bai Yunfei into a cold sweat, and he might even wet the bed when he slept at night.
But ideas are ideas, Cao Longxuan sincerely admires Bai Yunfei's wit, admires his meticulous thinking, quick thinking, and complex and changeable inspiration.
Therefore, when Bai Yunfei asked him to give Wei Baozhu a smile like a child, the famous boss Cao of Jiangsu and Zhejiang did not feel a trace of displeasure, but smiled at Wei Baozhu very cooperatively.
Although this smile was very reluctant and stiff at first glance, and everyone thought it was incredible and funny, it seemed to have really played a role in relieving Wei Baozhu's tension.
In Li Yulan's gentle embrace, the girl's expression slowly relaxed and slowed down her breathing
After that, she began to tell.
Before the mysterious girl Wei Baozhu told everyone about her ancestor's burial, she asked everyone a question:
"You, what do you think, Zhuge Liang, Cao Cao, these two people?"
"What is there to evaluate about this? Isn't this a long time ago? Han Debang replied with some puzzlement.
"What? Eternal... Discuss? ”
After all, there are some barriers to communication, and Wei Baozhu, a girl who did not grow up in a Chinese-language environment, has questions about some Chinese content.
"Ah, well, I'll answer it on everyone's behalf, everyone should be on the same page."
Han Debang finally seized the opportunity to perform, and he will definitely not miss it.
"This Zhuge Liang has been known as the embodiment of wisdom by the world since ancient times, the first wise man in ancient and modern times, and an ancient sage who has been praised by all dynasties; And this Cao Cao..."
He glanced at Cao Longxuan with evil eyes, and saw that Cao Longxuan glanced at him calmly, and was not nervous about what he was about to say.
He gritted his teeth and said a little excitedly: "This Cao Cao, whether it is opera or classics, all say that he is a generation of traitors, insidious and cunning, and he should be regarded as a villain."
After speaking, he glanced at Cao Longxuan again, and saw that this big boss Cao still had a flat expression, so he breathed a long sigh of relief.
But no one thought that the descendants of the ancient Han people, who had never lived in China, the mysterious girl Wei Baozhu, immediately refuted Han Debang's point of view:
"Wrong!"
I only heard her say unquestioningly:
"Cao Cao is a generation of masters, although in later generations, there are many infamy, but that is Du... made up. ”
Then she said: "Zhuge Liang, although he can't be said to be a heinous person, he can't be recognized by others' beautification of him, he is deified."
Then, I heard her say with some anger:
"In the world, there are only people, where is there a god?!"
Before everyone could understand why she was commenting on these two influential figures of the Three Kingdoms period, she began her narration.
And as she spoke, everyone's eyes widened in shock, and they almost fell out of their eye sockets and fell to the ground.
It is said that Zhuge Liang is a virtuous minister of the Shu Han generation, and he is also Liu Beituo's lonely old minister, the pillar that Liu Chan relies on, and his evaluation can only be described as "superior wisdom and wisdom through the ages".
It can be said that Zhuge Liang really did his best for the sake of Shu Han, and after his death, he was even more loyal to the Han family.
For thousands of years, later generations have always worshipped Zhuge Liang as a god, but there has always been mixed controversy about his design to kill Wei Yan before his death.
This controversy has also become a wind direction that shakes Zhuge Liang's position on the altar of history.
Of course, to kill Wei Yan, the conclusion given in the classics or romances is that Wei Yan rebelled.
But with the research and research of modern historians, in fact, Wei Yan has no objection at all.
And regarding Wei Yan's personal image, it is not at all as depicted in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", he is a character with "a backbone in the back of his head".
So Wei Yan rebelled, which was the most Shu Han formed by trauma
A case of great injustice.
Wei Yan had a very high status in Shu Han at that time, and when Zhuge Liang was in power, he was already the first person in the Shu Han military circle.
At that time, he was already the general of the expedition to the west, coupled with his extraordinary bravery, he was especially favored by Liu Bei.
It can be said that except for Zhuge Liang, basically no one can control him.
It is precisely because of this that Wei Yan's tragic foreshadowing was laid.
When Zhuge Liang was alive, he also relied on Wei Yan's bravery to fight against Cao Wei, so he trusted him very much.
But if he dies, who will control Wei Yan?
The smart Zhuge Liang naturally thought of this, and besides, Zhuge Liang had already designated a successor before his death, that is, Jiang Wan.
"Liang Pingsheng is a secret finger, with a narrow manner, which is intended for Jiang Wan."
There is another character involved here, called Yang Yi.
This Yang Yi was also the minister relied on by Zhuge Liang during the Northern Expedition, and Wei Yan, one article and one martial arts.
The most important thing is that Yang Yi and Wei Yan are completely incompatible.
"Only Yang Yi does not fake Wei Yan, and Yan thinks that he is angry, like fire and water."
So, Zhuge Liang thought of a plan.
"Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms" records: Before his death, Zhuge Liang held a confidential bedside meeting, which was attended by Yang Yi, Jiang Wei, Fei Yi and others.
Zhuge Liang's last order: After his death, he was not allowed to continue the Northern Expedition, and all of them were withdrawn to Shu.
When evacuating, let Wei Yan break off, Jiang Wei second.
And said, "If it is delayed or disobeyed, the army will spontaneously."
This means that if Wei Yan does not obey the order, you can leave him alone and manage your own army.
This couch meeting was the only thing missing Wei Yan, who had the highest military rank at that time, why is this?
Zhuge Liang's plan to withdraw the army, Wei Yan didn't know, and he didn't even consider Wei Yan's thoughts at all.
Isn't this Zhuge Liang's clever foreshadowing?
Wei Yan was an active anti-Cao element, so how could he easily withdraw his troops?
When Yang Yi sent Fei Yi to ask Wei Yan if he was going south together, Wei Yan said:
"The prime minister is dead, and what about me, should I continue to fight, why should one person abolish the great cause of Shu Han?! And who am I, Wei Yan, why should I give you Yang Yi a broken queen?! ”
Originally, Wei Yan and Yang Yi were incompatible, so at this time, it finally broke out.
Yang Yi felt that it was an excuse to kill Wei Yan, and Wei Yan also felt that it was an opportunity to eradicate Yang Yi, and the two fought for power.
As a result, Wei Yan was defeated by the joint efforts of Jiang Wan, Wang Ping, Yang Yi, and Ma Dai, and was killed for treason.
And these people are Zhuge Liang's henchmen!
Wei Yan is a famous general who is the mainstay of the Shu Han Dynasty, why did Zhuge Liang design to kill him before he died?
Is it really because he rebelled? Of course not.
Historians believe that Wei Yan's rebellion was an internal strife between the Shu Han and was led by Zhuge Liang.
Zhuge Liang did this because of several concerns:
First: Wei Yan is uncontrollable.
After Zhuge Liang died of illness, the Jingzhou system headed by Jiang Wan in the central government, which was Wei Yan's opponent, once Wei Yan took power, the consequences could basically be expected.
Second: Wei Yan's army
Thing course.
From the beginning of Wei Yan's reign in Hanzhong, he had his own military policy for the Northern Expedition.
After Zhuge Liang died, it was expected that he would not give up the Northern Expedition, and he would definitely insist on fighting, and it was a very risky way of playing, which was inconsistent with Zhuge Liang, who had been cautious all his life.
In order to protect Shu Han, Shu Han's army could not be tossed by Wei Yan, an adventurer, so he could only endure the pain and abandon Wei Yan.
Zhuge Liang used the little trick of breaking off the queen to make Wei Yan and Yang Yi conflict and kill Wei Yan.
And Yang Yi's final fate was "(Yang) Yi committed suicide, and his wife returned to Shu".
The final beneficiary is Zhuge Liang's heir Jiang Wan, who seems to be sitting in the rear and is quiet, but in fact secretly cares about every move of the front-line pattern.
Zhuge Liang designed except for Wei Yanhou, thinking that Shu Han would sit back and relax since then, but he never thought that there was a person who had always been hidden behind Wei Yan, although he was unknown, but he had the ability to penetrate the heavens and the earth.
This person is Wei Yan's brother Wei Zhenliang.
Originally, this person was not called "Wei Zhenliang", but Wei Ting, and he had always been Wei Yan's deputy general in the military tent.
This person seems to be unknown on the battlefield, but in fact he is a talented person!
Zhuge Liang's myths and legends that shine in history are actually many of them because of his help.
For example, the famous legends such as "Seven Captures of Meng Huo" and "Wooden Ox Flowing Horse" in history actually have his indelible credit.
Even, long before the Three Kingdoms period, long before Emperor Yan defeated Chiyou, there was the power of the Wei Xiaoliang family in play.
With the soft narration of Wei Baozhu, the descendant of Wei Xiaoliang, some of the fog and veils full of mystery in history were unveiled one by one, and the historical truth was restored.
After Wei Yan's death, the grief-stricken deputy general Wei Ting was disheartened and had no intention of serving Shu Han again.
and hated Zhuge Liang for making a plan to kill his eldest brother Wei Yan, so he took his relatives and cronies with foreign surnames to break away from the Shu army camp and set up his own door.
Originally, this Wei Ting wanted to take refuge in Cao Cao, to deal a head-on blow to the Shu army who "unloaded the mill and killed the donkey", and avenged the murder of the eldest brother to relieve the hatred at the end.
But Wei Ting knew very well that the eldest brother Wei Yan was the most advocate of resisting Cao during his lifetime, and he was a staunch supporter of fighting against Cao Wei.
If he defected to Cao Cao after his death, how could his eldest brother be blind under Jiuquan?
Cao Cao couldn't take refuge, and he refused to stay in Shu Han for one more day, and since then he has sworn to Shu Han, especially Zhuge Liang's faction, so how to go?
Wei Ting, who has strange ambitions, good plans, and magical beast control abilities, decided to set up his own door and create a great cause.
When the great cause is successful, it will definitely come with the army one day and set foot on the Shu Han army, especially the faction of Zhuge Liang, in order to avenge the blood and the sea of revenge.
