Referring to 3 brothers Zhuge Liang, Zhuge Liang and Zhuge Liang, people often call them with the nickname “Dragon Tiger”.
Although it does not have a large number of members like other clans, the Zhuge family is still a well-known family in Chinese history.
Among the characters of this family, the most famous is Zhuge Liang – the powerful Prime Minister of the Shu Han Dynasty during the Three Kingdoms period.
However, few people know that the Gia Cat family is not the only famous talent of Khong Minh. And the fact is that that family was once considered a famous family that produced many talents in the land of Lang Nha and Tu Chau in the past.
In fact, the Gia Cat family is not only famous for Khong Minh, but there have been many famous characters in the official place. (Illustrations).
Regarding the origin of the Zhuge family, the quote in “Three Kingdoms” states that their ancestors were originally the Cat people.
The book “Kung Minh Zhuge Liang” again asserts that the word “Cat” in the double family “Gia Cat” originates from the lineage of Cat Anh – a general who followed Tran Thang in revolt against Qin in the past.
Accordingly, although Cat Anh had merit, he was unjustly killed by Tran Thang. By the time of Han Van De, this general was cleared of wrongdoing, the king sent someone to find his descendants, giving Gia land as a place to eat.
A genus of the old Cat Anh clan was changed to Gia Cat, which is a combination of the word “Cat” in the old family name and the word Gia in the land “Gia”.
The ancestor of the Zhuge family is said to be Zhuge Liang, who held the position of Ti Le chaplain from the Emperor Yuan Dynasty of the Western Han Dynasty. Most of the genera of this family in the Three Kingdoms period belonged to this character’s lineage.
From there, it can be seen that Zhuge Liang’s lineage from early on entered the official position.
Towards the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms period, the Zhuge family appeared many important figures serving the key vassal forces at that time.
Before the time when Khong Minh stepped onto the political stage, his father, Zhuge Liang, used to work as the governor of Thai Son. His biological uncle Zhuge Liang was also a former Crown Prince Yu Zhang.
Therefore, it would not be an exaggeration to say that the family of Khong Minh has a long tradition of writing books and has built a foothold on the political scene from a very early age.
Because of that, in Lang Nha’s hometown, the Gia Cat family is known to be a famous family in this place.
Referring to the famous talents of the Zhuge family in the Three Kingdoms period, it is impossible not to mention the three brothers Zhuge Liang, Zhuge Liang and Zhuge Dan. (Illustrations).
Among the descendants of the Zhuge family living in the Three Kingdoms period, the most famous are three brothers, Zhuge Liang, Zhuge Liang and Zhuge Liang.
If Zhuge Liang was the dedicated Prime Minister of the Shu Han Dynasty, famous for his strategic talent, then his brother Zhuge Liang in Dong Ngo also served as an official of the General, once held the position of Yu Chau Mu, while others Zhuge Dan’s cousin is the famous General Tran Dong of Cao Wei.
Out of these three Zhuge family members, only Zhuge Liang is not a sibling to the other two.
In fact, Zhuge Liang and Zhuge Liang also have a younger brother, Zhuge Liang. This person used to follow Khong Minh to support Luu Bei and became the Head of the State.
However, if you objectively evaluate talent and reputation, Zhuge Liang can hardly keep up with Zhuge Liang – General of the Cao Wei Dynasty.
This is also the reason why Khong Minh’s youngest brother cannot stand in the same ranks as his two older brothers like Zhuge Liang.
Referring to the names of three famous Zhuge family brothers during the Three Kingdoms period, people at that time also called them with another mixed name, “Dragon Tiger Dog”.
In it, majestic images such as “dragon” and “tiger” are used to refer to the two brothers Zhuge Liang and Zhuge Liang, while the word “crau” refers to his cousin Zhuge Liang.
Because of that, the folk at that time still often handed down the saying: “Shu gets a dragon, Wu gets a tiger, Wei gets a dog”.
However, according to the explanation of the Sina newspaper (China), the word “Cau” in the phrase “Dragon Tiger Dog” about the three Zhuge family brothers does not have a negative connotation as many people think.
In fact, the word “crau” in this case is taken from the word “construction”, derived from a classic in “History” Sima Thien.
Specifically, the “National National Title” section of “History” once recorded, in the past, when Liu Bang awarded the award, he awarded Tieu Ha to the top of the ranks of 18 great ministers holding the title of Lieh marquis.
At that time many people expressed disapproval, Han Cao To immediately said:
“When hunting, chasing and biting wild animals is hunting dogs, but discovering their whereabouts and showing their whereabouts are hunters. But now you can only catch wild animals, merits are the same as hunting dogs. That’s it (public dog). As for Tieu Ha, who discovered the whereabouts and pointed out the target’s location, the merit was like a hunter.”
If based on the explanation of Han Cao To Luu Bang in the record of “History”, then the word “public dog” in this context can be understood as the merit of killing the enemy.
From then on, this word was used to talk about those who killed the enemy and made merit with a positive connotation. And the word “crau” in the phrase “Dragon Tiger Crane” used to refer to Zhuge Liang is also understood in this sense.
Looking back at the lives of the three famous Zhuge Liang brothers of the Three Kingdoms, it is not difficult to see that despite serving in three different political groups, the descendants of this family are all core officials and hold many important positions. important positions.
However, it cannot be denied that the glory of outstanding descendants like Zhuge Liang, Zhuge Can or Zhuge Liang cannot be separated from the solid foundation of the tradition of writing as well as the main character. rulership and reputation in the official place that the Zhuge family had once established for them.
