Lu Bu was scolded for thousands of years. In fact, for the Han Dynasty, Lu Bu was a good man. What happened afterwards?

What is the image of Lu Bu in the eyes of the world? Besides bravery, people first think of three surnames of domestic slaves, shameless, treacherous and selfish. Although Lyu3 bu4 is famous for his martial arts, and he can win the admiration of the world, people are still full of disdain when it comes to Lyu3 bu4, because killing the enemy again is just a military commander, and only people like Mr. Guan in Once upon a time in America deserve admiration.

However, as we all know, many figures in history gradually lost their forms in the process of recording and spreading in later generations, and even finally became traitors who were loyal to the monarch, which was quite different from his true colors. A typical example is Pan Mei in Song Dynasty. Although he was a loyal minister who bravely killed the enemy, he was renamed Pan Renmei in The Romance of Yang Jiajiang, and became a narrow-minded, sinister villain. Zhang He was a brave warrior in history, but The Romance of the Three Kingdoms also described him as a man who was beaten by the Shu army.

So what is the real Lu Bu like in history? Could he also be a reverse description? A reformed person? It can't be compared with Pan Mei, who can't tell right from wrong completely, but Lu Bu was a brave man in history, but he was greatly stigmatized in romance novels. Even for the Eastern Han Dynasty, when the building was about to collapse, Lu Bu showed loyalty.

What makes Lu Bu revile most is the so-called "three surnames of domestic slaves". First of all, these things are not the creation of romantic novels, but also exist in the official history. Lu Bu did go to Ding Yuan and Dong Zhuo, and then killed them respectively.

However, he did do it, and we can't generally assume that Lu Bu is a heinous villain who can trample on loyalty and filial piety for immediate interests. At least when he betrayed Dong Zhuo for the second time, he could not blame Dong Zhuo.

First of all, to define a person's behavior as "betrayal", then he must first meet a condition, that is, this person and the person he wants to target do have a friendship relationship and are as close as brothers. But one day, someone was blinded by interests and framed his brother for personal interests.

However, let's look at the relationship between Dong Zhuo and Lu Bu. According to the Records of the Three Kingdoms, Zhuo Zi was rude to others, afraid that others would make profits for himself, and often used cloth to defend himself. Dong Zhuo knows all about his arrogant and unreasonable behavior and knows that others hate him. In order to prevent others from sending assassins to murder him, he arranged for Lu Bu to defend him.

From this point of view, Lyu3 bu4 and Dong Zhuo are better called employment relationship, which means to use each other in plain English. As a figure who angered the world, Lu Bu was only in Kyoto, and because Dong Zhuo was powerful, he only took orders from Dong Zhuo and took on his defense work. If one day Lu Bu is careless and lazy, he can turn around and leave at any time. There is no question of treachery at all.

Of course, Dong Zhuo and Lu Bu are ordinary superiors and subordinates, but if Dong Zhuo is friendly to others and kind to Lu Bu, then Lu Bu can't escape an ungrateful hat, so let's see how Dong Zhuo treats Lu Bu. "The History of the Three Kingdoms" records: "Zhuo was headstrong, resentful and frustrated, pulling out his hand and throwing cloth. BuQuanJie avoid it, for solution, also solution. It is because of resentment. "

Dong Zhuo's moody temper made Lu Bu suffer greatly. He treated Lu Bu like a servant who was bought and used. Whenever something goes wrong with his mind, he takes it out on Lyu3 bu4. What kind of person is Lu Bu? Cleverly bowing horses, taking one hundred as a valiant soldier, but now Dong Zhuo is hiding under Dong Zhuo's account because of a whim. On the surface, Lu Bu was respectful to Dong Zhuo, but in fact he hated it. No matter which hot-blooded man can't stand this humiliation, Lu Bu has reason to kill Dong Zhuo.

In addition, Dong Zhuo is really not a famous person. It is well known that he brought disaster to the platform, bullied the young masters and controlled the state affairs. People who deserve to die like this deserve to be punished by everyone. Dozens of rebel armies have been assembled outside, ready to annihilate them quickly, and Dong Zhuo, Lu Bu's hand blade, is one of the pioneers of creation. Therefore, although the notoriety of Lu Bu's capriciousness is not groundless, it is unfair to evaluate other things.

On the other hand, there is another commendable aspect of Lu Bu, that is, he supported the Han Dynasty. Everyone thought that Lu Bu was a man of repeated contradictions. However, in the era when the Han Dynasty existed in name only, Lu Bu defended Emperor Xian of Han Dynasty and proved this point with practical actions. At this point, we can see from two things. The first thing was that Chang 'an was breached by the disorderly army, and when Wang Yun was in danger, Lu Bu was in danger at this time, but the enemy pursued him again and again and rushed to Wang Yun's side, shouting, "The situation is urgent! Tell Stuart to get on the horse and go through customs together. Don't try to make a good plan. "

When Wang Yun saw that Lu Bu was coming, he was afraid of dragging him down, and because the capital of the Eastern Han Dynasty was broken and he was determined to be a martyr, he refused Lu Bu. At the same time, he said to Lu Bu who came to the rescue: "Thank the Kanto princes for me and try to think of the country!" Lu Bu, who was denounced as a traitor, risked his life to rescue Wang Yun. Wang Yun was the initiator of eliminating Dong Zhuo who controlled Chaogang. At this time, out of kindness and loyalty to the Han Dynasty, Lu Bu came to rescue Wang Yun.

The second thing is an action of Emperor Xian of Han Dynasty. When Dong Zhuo held Xian Di hostage, he absurdly moved the capital to Chang 'an, which had been abandoned for a long time. Now that Dong Zhuo is dead, Emperor Xian of Han immediately raised money to return to the original capital. "Heroes" records: "The first son of heaven was in Hedong, and there was a calligraphy calling for cloth to meet him. The deployed troops can't do it by themselves without livestock. They sent an envoy to write a letter. The imperial court took cloth as the general of Pingdong and sealed Taohou. "

Now the Han Dynasty is not like the time when it dominated the world, and there are no sages in all fields. When Emperor Xian of Han Dynasty was isolated, it was actually Lu Bu who was able to summon people to help him. It can be seen that in the heart of Emperor Xian of Han Dynasty, Lu Bu is within his trust.

At the same time, due to the current poor situation of Lu Bu, he could not respond to the emperor's call. In this regard, he made no secret of it and played it to the emperor bluntly. The emperor did not doubt it and did not blame it at all. Afterwards, he was able to seal Lu Bu's official position. As a result, Lu Bu's behaviors in Chang 'an were recognized by Emperor Xian of Han Dynasty. In the heart of Emperor Xian of Han Dynasty, Lu Bu was a loyal and upright minister, and he didn't yearn for the Han Dynasty like Li Jue and Guo Si.

Lyu3 bu4 has many shortcomings, such as short-sightedness, greed and cheapness, but it is still remarkable. We can't deny him because of his one-sidedness. The description of him in The Romance of the Three Kingdoms is a bit exaggerated.
