First of all, Taiping Yu Lan records that Zhu Gejin's younger brother is famous for his birthday, and he lives in the same country. At that time, I thought that Shu got its dragon, Wu got its tiger and Wei got its dog. ? That is to say, Zhuge Liang, Zhu Gejin and Zhuge Dan are called by historians? Dragon, tiger and dog? . In view of these three officials in Wei, Shu and Wu, many people think that Zhuge family did it on purpose, that is, betting on three sides. No matter which side dominates the country in the end, Zhuge family can continue to prosper. However, in my opinion, the reason why Zhuge Liang's three brothers were torn apart in Wei Shuwu was mainly because the war at that time led to their displacement, and it was also directly related to their own choices. ?
Specifically, Zhuge Liang, Zhu Gejin and Zhuge Dan were all from Yang Du, Xuzhou (now yinan county, Linyi). If they stay in their hometown all the time, they may end up on Cao Wei's side as officials, because this area eventually became Cao Wei's territory. However, at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Xuzhou, as a battleground for military strategists, had a direct impact on the war. As for Zhuge Liang and Zhu Gejin, it was precisely because of the constant war in the last years of the Eastern Han Dynasty that they left their hometown and started their journey of being displaced from place to place. Accordingly, Zhuge Dan was finally within Cao Wei's sphere of influence. When Zhuge Dan came of age, Shang was appointed as Wei's Xingyang Order, which is in today's Zhengzhou City, Henan Province. ?
Correspondingly, in the fifth year of Jian 'an (200 years), Zhu Gejin avoided the Jiangdong Rebellion because of the Central Plains War. When Qu Ahong, Sun Quan's sister-in-law, met her, she was surprised by her talent and recommended her to be a guest with Lu Su and others. Since then, Zhu Gejin has been trusted by Sun Quan, so he gained power in Wu Dong. After the deaths of Zhou Yu, Lu Su and Lu Meng, Zhu Gejin became the general of Wu Dong. Then the question comes, because the oldest Zhu Gejin is gradually being reused in Wu Dong, why didn't he invite Zhuge Dan and Zhuge Liang to join him? In this regard, in my opinion, although historians often call Zhuge Liang, Zhu Gejin and Zhuge Dan brothers, Zhuge Liang and Zhu Gejin are brothers. Is their relationship with Zhuge Dan just the same brother?
Finally, further, the relationship between Zhuge Liang and Zhu Gejin is relatively distant, and there is no record of how many contacts he had with these two brothers in historical materials. At the same time, as far as Zhuge Liang is concerned, reflection? Zhuge Liang's biography of Pei quoted Yuan Zi as saying:? Zhang Zibu recommended Zhuge Liang to Sun Quan, but Liang refused to stay. People asked him why, saying: General Sun can be said to be the master of the people. However, judging from his education, he can be brilliant but not brilliant, so I won't stay. ? Someone in Soochow recommended Zhuge Liang to Sun Quan, but Zhuge Liang didn't want to follow Sun Quan. After that, Zhuge Liang waited for Liu Bei in Jingzhou and trusted each other. Finally, Zhuge Liang, Zhu Gejin and Zhuge Dan became officials in Wei, Shu and Wu respectively.
