Liu Chan was the second emperor of Shu Han and the king of national subjugation. He is the son of Liu Bei, a famous Liu Adou in history. However, when it comes to Liu Chan, it is actually controversial. In the eyes of many people, he is an out-and-out bad king, and his failure to make progress leads to the ruin of the country.

When Liu Chan acceded to the throne, he was not yet an adult, and Liu Bei became an orphan in his later years. State affairs were in Zhuge Liang's hands. According to Liu Bei's testament, "there are no details in political affairs, and the salt is determined by the light."

Objectively speaking, Liu Chan was not wrong during Zhuge Liang's auxiliary administration.

He reigned for 4 1 year and was the longest reigning emperor in the Three Kingdoms period. The reason why he was criticized as an out-and-out bad king is mainly because of three points.

First of all, in the later period of Liu Chan's rule, he liked to play tricks on the country and trusted eunuch Huang Hao. We know that once eunuchs use the emperor's favor to do evil, state affairs will inevitably be messed up. There are countless such cases. However, Huang Hao was at odds with Jiang Wei. Jiang Wei once suggested that Liu Chan get rid of him, but Liu Chan didn't agree. Although he asked Huang Hao to apologize to Jiang Wei, it was obvious that he was too ignorant of the way of the world to believe that the two would make up. ?

In private, Huang Hao was evil and attached to the DPRK. He was so scared that Jiang Weilian dared not go back to the imperial court. He went to live in other places directly, and it was impossible for him to settle down and deal with the military.

Second, in the last years of Shu Han Dynasty, when Wargo's army arrived in Chengdu, Liu Chan was determined to surrender without any resistance in the face of foreign invasion. His son was even very dissatisfied with him and committed suicide.

Third, after he was captured in the north, he once said at a banquet that "I am happy here and don't think about Shu", which became a great evidence for later generations to crusade. ?

First of all, this is entirely Liu Chan's fault, and he must be responsible for it. But strictly speaking, the second point is that he can't do anything about the situation at that time. You can say that he chose to surrender in order to survive, but this is not his ignorance. As for the third point, this does not reflect his fatuity. On the contrary, many people think this is his cleverness. ?

In fact, Liu Chan is not as fatuous as we thought. In Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Liu Chan is playful and willful, but the fact is that his ability is not bad.

It is not entirely his fault that he can become the king of national subjugation. Generally speaking, Liu Chan is not a "bad king", but a "mediocre king" at most.
