Liu Bei weaves mats and sells shoes for a living. This is the biggest joke I have ever heard. Can you believe it?

"The History of the Three Kingdoms, Shu, Biography of the First Master" records: "The first master (Liu Bei) was lonely and made a living with his mother. There are mulberry trees on the southeast fence, which are more than 50 feet high. From a distance, I can see Tong Tong's hood. People coming and going all blame this tree for being extraordinary, or a noble person. ..... When I was fifteen, my mother went to school. "

From this historical data, we can know that Liu Bei lost his father and could not go to school for economic reasons. In his early years, he and his mother made a living by selling shoes and weaving mats, while Liu Bei didn't go to school until he was fifteen. I wonder now, are respectable people like Liu Bei and Liu Huangshu so poor that they can only make a living by selling shoes and weaving mats?

Liu Bei, at least an aristocrat, will not be reduced to making mats and selling shoes.

Liu Bei claimed to be "the son of Emperor Xiaojing, Sun Yat-sen and Wang Liusheng", and this "Liu Huangshu" came from Luo Guanzhong's Romance of the Three Kingdoms. In order to prove the identity of "Liu Huangshu", Luo Guanzhong specially arranged for Liu Bei to meet with Emperor Xian of Han Dynasty in the twentieth time, and Emperor Xian of Han Dynasty recognized this "uncle". The official history of the Three Kingdoms only mentions his grandfather Xiong Liu and his father Ricardo.

It doesn't matter whether Liu Bei is the successor of Liu Sheng, the king of Zhongshan Jing, but one thing is certain: Liu Bei belongs to a "noble", and the answer can be found in the History of the Three Kingdoms. Zhuge Liang recorded: "General (Liu Bei) is the emperor's palace, and his letter is everywhere. When you look at heroes, you can think of saints. "

"Biography of the Three Kingdoms and Zhuge Liang" records: "Liu Yuzhou (Liu Bei) is a royal family with outstanding talents, and many people admire him if he returns to the sea." The first paragraph was told by Kong Ming when he met Liu Bei in Nanyang. The second paragraph is what Kong Ming said when he lobbied Sun Quan before Battle of Red Cliffs. From these two paragraphs, it can be proved that Liu Bei belongs to the "noble" class

As Liu Bei was a nobleman, his father died early. Let's look at his grandfather again. "The History of the Three Kingdoms" records: "Zu Xiong, Fu Hong, was born in Shishi County. Xiongju Xiaolian, the official to Fan Ling, Dongjun. " Xiong Liu, Liu Bei's grandfather, is a dutiful son and an official in Dongjun. You know, if you want to be an official in the Eastern Han Dynasty, you must be recommended as Lian Xiao by the local government before you can enter the official career.

It can be seen that Liu Bei's ancestors were not so bad. Even when Liu Bei's generation was poor, there were "noble people" who supported him on the way to school. "The History of the Three Kingdoms" records: "Jiujiang is the satrap of Lu Zhi, and is in the same county as Liu Deran and Gongsun Zan in western Liaoning. Dylan's father kept giving money to his late master, and so did Dylan. "

When Liu Bei 15 years old, he joined Liu Deran, the same clan, and Gongsun Zan to worship Lu Zhi, the satrap of Jiujiang County. In the Han Dynasty, you should know that an apprentice needed money, although Liu Deran's father Liu Yuan helped Liu Bei to go to school. The tuition problem has been solved, but new problems have emerged.

"The History of the Three Kingdoms" records: "My late master was not very happy in reading, and he liked dogs, horses, music and beautiful clothes. ..... young people compete for this. " Although some people support Liu Bei, Liu Bei doesn't like reading, dogs, horses, music and beautiful clothes. Put it in a "rich second generation". Now, think of a family that lives by making a mat. You just don't study hard. As for Liu Bei's preferences, how many shoes his mother sells and how many seats he knits are enough for Liu Bei to "squander".

What is worth pondering is that Liu Bei's mother made a living by selling shoes and weaving mats in the History of the Three Kingdoms. Just like a child born in a very poor family, the family barely makes ends meet, and suddenly the child bought a very popular mobile phone. Is this possible? So history is worth pondering. A letter is better than no book!
