Yi Zhongtian: How did Zhou Yu die? Some time ago, I gave a speech in the provincial library, and some listeners asked me how Zhou Yu died. I replied that I died of illness. He asked, isn't it irritating? I saidno. The audience said disapprovingly, "Sanyu", you don't even know this? This is really wrong. Not only Zhou Yu was wronged, but Zhuge Liang was also wronged. Yes, in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, there is a story of "San Yu" and the saying that "He Shengliang was born in", all of which are well known. But that's a novel, not history. Zhuge Liang in history has never been angry with Zhou Yu. Even if I am angry, I'm afraid I won't die. Why? Because Zhou Yu's generosity is great. The History of the Three Kingdoms rated him as "broad-minded", that is, cheerful and generous. His contemporaries also spoke highly of him. Liu Bei said he was "very talented" and Jiang Gan said he was "magnanimous". By the way, Jiang Gan has also been wronged. He has been to Zhou Ying, but it was in Battle of Red Cliffs two years later. Of course, he has not been cheated or stolen any books. Jiang Gan has no white nose on his face, but he is a handsome boy. Cao Cao sent Jiang Gan as a lobbyist. When Jiang Gan arrived in Zhou Ying, he immediately found Zhou Yu immobile, so he was well-advised and said nothing. When he came back, he told Cao Cao that Zhou Yu was "generous beyond words". This is the real Zhou Yu and Jiang Gan in history. In fact, Zhou Yu is an excellent person and a hero. In my opinion, this gentleman can be summed up in eight words: handsome boy, good friend, famous soldier and loyal minister. Zhou Yi Zhongtian, Yu Shuai, a professor at the School of Humanities of Xiamen University, was a household name at that time. The reflection said that he was "fit". At the age of 24, he was appointed as the corps commander of Jianwei by Sun Ce, who galloped the battlefield and made great achievements. Everyone in Wuzhong is called Zhou Lang (Sun Ce is called Sun Lang). Lang is a young man. To call someone lang is to praise them. So "Sun Lang" is "handsome grandson" and "Zhou Lang" is "handsome week". Of course, a person's "handsome" is not only appearance, but also inner temperament. Zhou Yu is just a noble and generous person. He has a good character, high self-cultivation, can fight, knows art, and is especially proficient in music. Even after three rounds of drinking, I can still hear whether the band's performance is accurate. If not, he will go back and have a look. At that time, it was said that "the song was wrong and Zhou Lang dealt with it". So I even doubt that he can command the army like a famous lecture hall band, turn the war into art, and play beautifully, just like a work of art. Zhou Yu's battle was really beautiful. Battle of Red Cliffs, commander-in-chief of Sun Liu's allied forces at the front. At that time, Cao Cao's army was arrayed in the Yangtze River, warships were connected, military flags were hunting, and the people in Jiangdong were frightened. However, Zhou Yu was unhurried and unhurried. He casually wore a black scarf, shook the feather fan lightly, planned and directed, and finally defeated the enemy, winning more with less. How thrilling it is! Therefore, Su Dongpo said, "Think back to Gong Jin, how magnificent Xiao Qiao was when he first got married. Feather fan nylon scarf, laughing and laughing, strong ashes. " At this time, Zhou Yu is really a young hero, full of energy and radiant! Of course, war is not an art, it can't be so chic, so elegant, so charming, let alone laughing and laughing, and the arrogant "strong" will be "eliminated". At this time, Zhou Yu has been married to Xiao Qiao for 1O years, not "Xiao Qiao got married for the first time". Su Dongpo said this only to focus on portraying Zhou Yu's heroic image. Actually, Zhou Yu is really beautiful. People are beautiful and things are done beautifully. There are generally two possibilities for such a beautiful person's interpersonal relationship: one is that everyone is jealous of him, and the other is that everyone likes him. Now it seems that Zhou Yu's situation is the second. The saying in the "History of the Three Kingdoms" is that "those who have a high rate will win people's hearts", that is, they will win the favor of others, and the only unfriendly thing will be a period.
