Life of the characters

Early experience

When Zhu Gejin was young, he visited Luoyang, and also read the book of songs, Shangshu and Zuo's spring and Autumn Annals. Zhugejin's mother died early. During the period of filial piety, zhugejin was polite and respectful in serving his stepmother.

In the fifth year of Jian'an (200 years), zhugejin avoided the chaos of Jiangdong because of the war in the Central Plains. Qu ahongzi, Sun Quan's elder brother-in-law, met Zhuge Jin and was surprised by his talent. He recommended him to Sun Quan and treated him with Lu su.

Zhuge Jin had a close relationship with Bu and Yan. In the sixth year of Jian'an (201), the three people traveled around Wuzhong together and gradually became famous. They were all known as the outstanding talents of the time. Later, zhugejin served as the magistrate of Haiyan County. Later, he became Sun Quan's chief historian and transferred to Sima.

notable exploits

In 215, Sun Quan sent Zhuge Jin to make friends with Liu Bei. He met his younger brother Zhuge Liang at the residence and did not talk about private affairs. Finally, the two sides ended up with a demarcation line.

Zhuge Jin and Sun Quan never spoke out in a hurry, but expressed their inclination and intention. If he was not in accord with Sun Quan's mind, he would give up what he was doing and turn to other topics. Gradually, he would start from the beginning with other things and seek Sun Quan's approval with his views on similar things. Therefore, Sun Quan's thoughts were often opened up. Zhu Zhi, the prefect of Wujun County, was a general who recommended Sun Quan to be a filial and honest man. Where Sun Quan had ever complained about him, he could not get rid of his resentment because he respected him very much and could not blame him personally.

Zhugejin figured out the reason, but did not dare to say it openly and clearly. So he asked himself what Sun Quan meant. In this way, he wrote a letter in front of Sun Quan, extensively expounded the common sense of things, and used his own thoughts to speculate and analyze Sun Quan's inner activities. After writing, he submitted the letter to Sun Quan. Sun Quan was very happy and said with a smile, "my pimples have been untied by you. Yan Yuan's virtue is to make people more loving. Is that what he means? " Sun Quan also reproached Yin Mo, the captain of the school, and the name of his conviction was unpredictable. Many ministers pleaded for Yin model, Sun Quan was more angry, and argued with the pleaders repeatedly, only Zhuge Jin was silent. Sun Quan said, "why didn't Ziyu speak?" Zhugejin left the seat and said: "because of the fall of his native land, his subordinates and Yin mo were exterminated. They abandoned their ancestral graves, took the old with the young, cut through the thorns and thorns, and came to conform to the Enlightenment of Shengming. Among the exiled bitches, they were blessed by the Lord's life. They could not supervise each other to repay one thousandth of their kindness. As a result, Yin Mo failed to live up to the grace of the emperor and fell into sin. It's too late for me to plead guilty. I really dare not say anything. " After hearing this, Sun Quan was very sad, so he said, "I'll forgive him for you."

In the 24th year of Jian'an (219), he followed LV Meng to seek Guan Yu and was granted the title of Xuancheng marquis. He took the place of the general of suinan, who led the prefect of Nanjun to garrison the Public Security Bureau.

Zhifang dare to remonstrate

In 221, Liu Bei conquered Wu. Sun Quan asked for peace. Zhuge Jin wrote to Liu Bei: "Your Majesty came all the way to Baidi, I'm afraid it's because the king of Wu invaded Jingzhou and harmed Guan Yu. You should not make peace. This is the heart of a small person. You are not willing to focus on the big things. I try to judge the weight and size for your majesty. Your majesty, if you want to suppress your Majesty's anger, can make a decision immediately without consulting the generals. How does the intimacy between your majesty and Guan Yu compare with that of the Han emperors? How does the size of Jingzhou compare with that of domestic States? Who should take precedence over these hatreds? If you think about it carefully, isn't it very simple? "

In the third year of Huangchu (222), Sun Quan was granted the title of king of Wu, Zhuge Jin, general Zuo, governor of public security, and Wanling marquis. In the same year, Cao Zhen and Xia HOUSHANG surrounded Zhu ran in Jiangling. Zhuge Jin sent troops to rescue him. When he crossed the river, he was defeated by Xia HOUSHANG's burning ships and attacking both land and water. Pan Zhang did not know that he came to the rescue, but the Wei soldiers continued to cross day by day. He said, "Wei's power began to flourish, and the river was shallow, so we could not fight." Then he took it to the upper reaches of Wei Dynasty and cut down millions of reeds to make rafts. He wanted to set fire along the current and burn the floating bridge. At the end of rafting, Xia HOUSHANG and Cao Zhen retreated. Although they didn't make great contributions, they also made contributions to the smooth entry of the security division.

Yu Fan was exiled because of his frankness. Only Zhuge Jin interceded for him many times. Yu Fan said in his letter to his relatives and friends, "ZHUGE Jindun is kind and righteous. He imitates heaven to save the living beings. Recently, he has been very kind to me and saved my reputation. But I have too many grievances and too many crimes, and I am deeply hated by your majesty. Although there are people like Qi Xi to save me, but I have no such virtue as yangsheshi. There is no hope to save me."

Zhuge Jin was graceful and gentle, and people at that time admired his elegant temperament. Sun Quan also attached great importance to him and consulted him on every major event.

Several attacks on Xiangyang

In 226, when Sun Quan learned of Cao Pi's death, he sent troops to attack Wei in August. He ordered Wu Zuo general Zhuge Jin's troops to attack Xiangyang in two ways, and personally led the troops to attack Jiangxia county. Sun Quan was defeated by the Wei army all the way, so he withdrew. Zhugejin was defeated by Sima Yi, and killed Wu General Zhang Ba, beheading more than 1000 levels. In December, he was promoted to general Hussars.

In the first year of Huanglong (229), Sun Quan called himself Emperor and granted zhugejin the rank of general and zuoduhu, and led the Yuzhou herdsman.

In the fifth year of Jiahe (236), the great emperor made an expedition to the north and sent Lu Xun, the right governor, and Zhuge Jin, the central commander, to attack Xiangyang. Lu Xun sent a relative, Han Bian, to report the memorial to the imperial court. On his way back, he met the Wei army, who captured Han Bian. After hearing this, Zhu Gejin was very frightened and wrote to Lu Xun, saying: "Dajia has been returned. The enemy has got Han Bian and has made clear all our facts. And the river is running dry. It's better to leave soon. " After receiving the report, Lu Xun did not reply, but urged Fengdou (a vegetable) to play chess and archery with the generals, as usual. When Zhuge Jin knew about it, she said, "Lu Boyan is resourceful and resourceful. He must have his own consideration in doing so." So I came to see Lu Xun in person. Lu Xun said: "the Wei army knew that Dajia had returned, so they no longer had to plan for it, so they concentrated on dealing with us. Now that the Wei army has guarded the vital place and the generals have been sent out, we should first calm down to stabilize the troops, and then skillfully use a stratagem to get out of here. If we make it clear to the Wei Army today that we are going to leave, the Wei army will think that we are afraid and will come to bully us, and that is the inevitable defeat. " So they secretly decided to send Zhuge Jin to Xiangyang by boat. Lu Xun led all the troops to Xiangyang. The Wei army had always been afraid of Lu Xun. Seeing that Lu Xun wanted to attack Xiangyang, they immediately returned to the city. Zhuge Jin then led the boat out, and Lu Xun slowly straightened out the team and went on board with great publicity. The Wei army did not know what it was, but did not dare to pursue it, so Lu Xun's whole army withdrew safely.

Political disturbance

In the seventh year of Jiahe (238), Nongzheng minister LV Yi was executed. Previously, Zhuge Jin, Lu Dai, Zhu ran, and BU Xiang thought they were military officers and did not interfere in the case of Lu Yi. After the death of LV Yi, Sun Quan sent the Chinese scholar Yuan Li to reprimand the four, pointing out that they were as good as flesh and blood, and that they shared weal and woe. They made mistakes in politics, so they should give advice and should not stay out of the affair.

In April 241, Sun Quan divided his troops into four groups to attack Wei: Wei general Quan Cong led tens of thousands of troops out of Huainan to conquer the water of shaopi (now Huishou county), Wei general Zhuge Ke attacked Lu'an (now northeast of Lu'an, Anhui), former General Zhu ran attacked Fancheng (now Xiangyang, Hubei), and general Zhuge Jin attacked zuzhong (now manhe River Basin, Nanzhang, Hubei). In May, Quan Cong invaded shaopi, Zhu ran and sun Lun besieged Fancheng, Zhuge Jin and bu Lu invaded and plundered Liu, and Sima Yi asked himself to send troops.

In the same year, Zhuge Jin died at the age of 68. Before her death, she told her to buy coffin clothes and make funeral simple.

Anecdotes and allusions

Life and death are not easy

It is used to describe loyalty to ideals, beliefs, friendships and alliances.

At that time, some people slandered Zhuge Jin, saying that he exchanged information with Liu Bei, and the rumors were very popular. Lu Xun tried his best to protect Zhuge Jin. Sun Quan replied: "Ziyu and I have been together for many years, and we have the oath of life and death. He is a man who is not able to do justice. When Kong Ming visited the state of Wu, I asked Ziyu to keep him. Ziyu said to me, "my younger brother has followed others, and he is righteous. My younger brother will not stay, just as I will not leave. " His words and deeds are so wise. On the great righteousness of the world's monarchs and ministers, Ziyu and I can be said to have "divine friendship", not that others can alienate. I know your mind, and I will send the letter to Ziyu again, so that he can understand your good intentions. "
