From 22 1 AD, Liu Bei proclaimed himself emperor in Chengdu, which continued the unification of the Han Dynasty. The title was decided by the Han Dynasty. After 263 AD, Liu Chan, the main ruler, destroyed Wei and passed it on to the second emperor for 43 years. It was the court with the least number of emperors and the shortest founding time among the three countries.
Liu Bei died after three years as emperor. Although his son Liu Chan was incompetent, he sat in the dragon chair for 465,438+0 years. The history of Shu is actually the history of Shu.
Shu Han has three famous royal tombs: two tombs and one tomb. That is Liu Bei and Zhao Lie's Hui Ling, the Nanling of Queen Liu Chan and Liu Chan's own Adou Tomb.
This paper first talks about the mystery of Liu Bei's rise.
Among the Three Kingdoms, Emperor Liu Bei may be the least prominent, but as far as the feudal ethical order is concerned, he is the most real one.
Liu Bei (A.D. 16 1-223) was born in Zhuozhou, Hebei Province (now Zhuoxian, Hebei Province). Liu Bei is of royal blood, and his father, Likas, is a descendant of Liu Sheng, the son of Emperor Han Jing.
Liu Zhen, the son of Liu Sheng, was named Hou Ting in Lucheng, Zhuoxian County in the sixth year of the founding of Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty (1 17 BC), and the Liu family has lived here ever since. Liu Bei's grandfather Xiong Liu is a local gentleman. He is the county magistrate of Fan County (in the southeast of Old Fan County in Henan Province). But times have changed, and by the generation of Liu Bei's father, Likas, his family had declined. Ricas died young again, and his life was very sad. It can be said that Liu Bei suffered from human suffering when he was very young.
Cao Cao once ridiculed Liu Bei for selling children's shoes, saying that Liu Bei lived in his early years. Because of lack of financial resources, young Liu Bei had to follow his mother and make a living by selling straw sandals and weaving reed mats.

Extraordinary people always have extraordinary things, and so does Liu Bei. It is said that Sun Quan became emperor because his ancestral grave was buried in a treasure trove of geomantic omen, and where Liu Bei's ancestral grave was buried is not stated in the history books, but Liu Bei's Yang Zhai seems to be built on a treasure trove of geomantic omen.
The History of the Three Kingdoms, Huayang and other books have recorded that there is a big mulberry tree more than 50 feet high near the fence wall in the southeast corner of Liu Beijia's old house, with lush foliage. From a distance, it looks like the roof of the car when the ancient emperor traveled. The locals were surprised to see it, and predicted that the Liu family would be a noble person.
Liu Bei is also ambitious, playing under a tree with children from the same family. He once said that I must use this feather to build a car! It means that I will definitely give Tianzi a beautifully decorated car in the future. Liu Bei may have said this sentence more than once. It used to be taboo, and the official knew it and beheaded it. So his uncle Liu Zijing warned him to be careful what he said-don't talk nonsense and destroy our door!
Many people think that Liu Bei can be emperor because his old house has good feng shui, but it is not. After all, Feng Shui is a very mysterious thing. Judging from Liu Bei's life track, it is precisely because of one thing his mother did that she corrected and guided her son's development direction-
Liu Bei's mother is a woman with great vision. When Liu Bei 15 years old, she decided to let her son go out for a study tour, in today's words, let him go out for a stroll. If Liu hadn't decided to encourage him to be a drifter, Liu Bei wouldn't have produced so many right-hand men. Without these right-hand men, it is basically impossible for him to become emperor. Therefore, a good mother in the world should not give her child a rich life, but should give him a correct direction of life development.
When Liu Bei was studying abroad, he joined Liu Deran and Gongsun Zan (a native of western Liaoning) to learn from his predecessor, Jiujiang satrap and county magistrate Lu Zhi. Liu Deran's father Liu Yuanqi is very optimistic about Liu Bei and often regards Liu Bei as his own. Liu's wife is very unhappy, and Liu Bei is not our family. Why are you so kind to him?

Liu Yuanqi may have seen that Liu Bei can make great achievements in the future and become an emperor. He told his wife that this child in my family is not an ordinary person!
Since the age of 15, Liu Bei has made a group of like-minded comrades on the road to becoming emperor and founding the country in the future. Gongsun Zan, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and others all became close friends of Liu Bei during this period. The most important ones are Guan Yu in Hedong and Zhang Fei in the same county. They are Liu Bei's right-hand men. According to historical records, Liu, Guan and Zhang are as good as one: sharing the same bed, eating and living together.
In Romance of the Three Kingdoms, their relationship is regarded as the Three Oaths of Taoyuan. The three vowed to remember Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, although their surnames are different, but Qi Xin should work together to help the poor; Serve your country, rest in peace. I don't want to be born on the same day in the same year, I just want to die on the same day in the same year After heaven and earth, learn this heart, be ungrateful and kill heaven and man! After the oath, Liu Bei was sworn as his younger brother, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei as his younger brothers.

Zhang Shiping and Su Shuang, wealthy businessmen in Zhongshan, also thought that Liu Bei had a bright future and gave him a lot of money. This money is very important to Liu Bei and should be the first bucket of gold for Liu Bei to make a fortune. Liu Bei used it to organize a group of troops and began his military career.
There is nothing to do after that. Liu Bei fought in a magnificent battle all his life: he was awarded the title of Anxi county captain for suppressing the yellow turban insurrectionary army; Cook wine with Cao Cao to discuss heroes; Zhuge Liang, a genius who cares about the cottage; United with Sun Wu, Battle of Red Cliffs defeated Cao Cao; Take Hanzhong and become the king of Hanzhong. In the second year of Wei Huang (AD 22 1 year), when Cao Pi forced Emperor Han Xian to abdicate and the State of Wei was established, Liu Bei took Shan Zhinan as emperor in Chengdu and succeeded to the Han Dynasty, with the title Zhangwu ... Because of the popularity of Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Liu Bei was as well known as Cao Cao and Sun Quan.
Liu Bei died in April in the third year of Zhangwu (AD 223) in Yong 'an Palace in Baidicheng (now Fengjie, Chongqing). In August this year, posthumous title Zhaolie was buried in Hui Ling.

However, the burial place of Liu Bei, such as Cao Cao's tomb, has different opinions, especially in modern times, because of the tourism economy fever brought by celebrity benefits, the dispute over Liu Bei's cemetery is very fierce.
