【Haichuan Teahouse】 Since Zhao Yun possessed both talent and virtue, why didn’t Liu Bei become sworn brothers with him? ?

In terms of status: in the \"Records of the Three Kingdoms: Annals of Shu\", the ranking of the Five Tiger Generals of the Shu state was originally Guan, Zhang, Ma, Huang, and Zhao. The change in order in \"Romance of the Three Kingdoms\" is due to Luo Guanzhong’s personal preference for Zhao Yun. In terms of military ranks, during the Han Dynasty, the ranks of generals were ordered as Grand General, General of the Cavalry, General of Chariots and Cavalry, General of the Guard, followed by those in charge of the east, south, west, and north. In the 16th year of Jian’an (211), Ma Chao joined the Shu forces. In the 24th year of Jian’an (219), he was appointed Left General, and in the first year of Zhangwu (221), he was promoted to General of the Cavalry. Huang Zhong also became a rear general when Liu Bei proclaimed himself King of Hanzhong. Zhao Yun was not appointed as General Who Guards the South until the first year of Jianxing (223), and later was promoted to General Who Guards the East. Before his death, he accompanied Zhuge Liang on the northern expeditions and suffered a minor defeat at Ji Valley; as a result, he was demoted from the positions of Central Guard General, General Who Pacifies the East, and Marquis of Yongchang to General in Charge of the Army. And died after being demoted. In terms of leading troops: Zhao Yun never became the governor of any region in his life, and he also had few opportunities to lead troops on his own. In this regard, he is not only inferior to Guan, Zhang, Ma, and Huang, but even inferior to Wei Yan, who was appointed as the governor of Hanzhong. We see Zhao Yun more often guarding the central army or serving as a vanguard. Moreover, when Liu Bei entered Sichuan, “at that time, the lord’s wife was arrogant and domineering, employing many Wu officials and soldiers to act recklessly and lawlessly.” The Lord President believed that Zhao Yun was serious and capable of maintaining order, so he entrusted him with the responsibility of taking care of his wife, Lady Sun” (Records of the Three Kingdoms: Biography of Fa Zheng), and trusted Zhao Yun to look after his wife with confidence. Judging from posthumous titles: In ancient times, the posthumous titles given to a person after their death could reflect their status during their lifetime. After Zhuge Liang’s death in the Shu Han dynasty, he was posthumously titled “Marquis of Loyalty and Valor”; Guan, Zhang, Ma, and Huang were respectively given the titles of Marquis of Error, Marquis of Perseverance, Marquis of Might, and Marquis of Strength. Zhuge Liang’s posthumous title of “Loyal” reflects his achievements in civil governance, while “Martial” denotes his military exploits; his extraordinary prestige goes without saying. However, when it comes to military generals, single-character posthumous titles are usually more honorable than two-character ones. After Zhao Yun’s death, the Shu Han dynasty delayed granting him a posthumous title. General Jiang Wei and others could no longer bear to watch this, so they submitted petitions requesting that Zhao Yun be granted a posthumous title. It was not until March of the 4th year of Jingyao (261), more than 30 years after Zhao Yun’s death, that he was posthumously granted the title of Marquis of Shunping. The imperial edict states: “Kindness and gentleness are called ‘submissiveness’; proper organization in handling affairs is called ‘order’; putting an end to chaos and disorder is also called ‘order’” (Records of the Three Kingdoms, Biography of Zhao Yun). Such an epithet certainly does not represent great honor; rather, the description of her as gentle, virtuous, and submissive led some people in later generations to suspect that Zhao Yun was actually a woman. In summary, Zhao Yun’s status within the Shu Han regime was actually much lower than what people imagine. Throughout the 21 years he followed Liu Bei, he was never truly given important responsibilities by Liu Bei and his son. Liu Bei’s trust in him was more based on his character than on his abilities. This is naturally very different from the absolute trust that exists among Liu, Guan, and Zhang, as if they were brothers.

:) The age difference between the two is a bit large; they are from different generations. . . :(:(:(:(:(

The interests of the original shareholders at the beginning of the company’s establishment were already determined; once the company grew, no one wanted to allow others to join and enjoy these special benefits. However, those who tell stories and perform operas truly referred to Zhao as the “fourth brother”; his role was more that of the head of the central security force, a position that entailed absolute trust.

:“Being gentle, kind, and obedient is called ‘obedience’; having order in one’s tasks is called ‘balance’, and bringing an end to chaos and disorder is also called ‘balance’” (In modern terms: obeying arrangements, respecting discipline, and being able to work independently)

I don’t ask to be born on the same day as you, but I do hope to die on the same day

Hasn’t anyone said that Zhao Yun is a woman? I. Do not grow a beard ； II. Seven in and seven out to save A Dou – boundless maternal love ； Well, I can’t remember the rest.

It was quite popular between 2015 and 2017. Besides the two points mentioned above, it is also said that when Liu Bei first met Zhao Yun, he held his hand tightly and cried, regretting that they had met so late; later on, Zhao Yun followed Liu Bei. It is also interpreted from the perspective of relationships between men and women.
