In the face of Wei Jun falling from the sky, the garrison commander of Fucheng surrendered, and then Zhuge Zhan was defeated, which was too fast. At that time, Zhuge Zhan's troops greatly surpassed Wargo, and no one expected to lose so quickly. Wargo went deep into the hinterland of Shu and Han alone, and should have been surrounded and wiped out, but he won. Liu Chan, the late ruler, was terrified out of her wits when she heard that Zhuge Zhan was completely annihilated.
Therefore, Liu Chan, the late ruler, called his ministers to discuss. But at this time, the whole court was gloomy, and few ministers could make comments. At that time, some ministers were willing to lead the troops from other parts of Shu and Han to help defend Chengdu, and there were a large number of troops in Chengdu at that time. However, Liu Chan is very afraid of failure. Zhuge Zhan died in Mianzhu, which made him timid. Living a good life is what he pursues. At that time, Liu Chan's son, Liu Chen, the king of the North, also suggested sticking to Chengdu. If the monarch and the minister are single-minded, Chengdu is likely to be able to hold on. In addition, troops from other regions can also help. Jiang Wei also led some troops to rescue Chengdu. But what the soldiers are waiting for is a paper of surrender. Liu Chan gave Chengdu to Wargo without resistance.
In the face of Liu Chan's practice, it is strange that only a few ministers oppose it. The most fierce resistance was Liu Chan's fifth son, Liu Chen. At that time, Liu Chen's words were fierce and he vowed to do or die with Wei Jun and Chengdu. Even if it fails, there is still the first emperor Liu Bei under the grave. But Liu Chen and a few others were turned away by Liu Chan in the main battle, and there was nothing they could do.
Liu Chen was very sad to see his father so fatuous that the country had perished. So Liu led his family to the fierce temple. His family knew what Liu Chen was going to do, and everyone followed Liu Chen silently without any fear. Liu Chen screamed and cried in Zhaolie Temple. His three sons and his wife also knelt in Zhaolie Temple and wept bitterly.
Liu Chen pointed his sword at his sons and said, "Are you afraid of the country's death?"
"Not afraid!" Although the three sons are young, they have Liu Chen's personality.
"Start with me," said Liu Chen's wife.
Liu Chen looked at his wife and gave her one last hug. Mrs Liu Chen slowly fell to the ground with tears in her eyes. Liu Chen's children also slowly fell beside their mother, and never separated. Liu Chen looked at his wife and son who fell to the ground and burst into tears. He wiped his sword around his neck and then slowly fell down beside his wife and son. Poor Liu Chen, the cleverest son of Liu Chan, died with Shu Han. What he didn't know was that his father, Liu Chan, later said, "Be happy here, don't think about it." In this case, in order to survive, he is so humble.
When he arrived in Wei, Si Mazhao gave his concubines and other ladies-in-waiting to the soldiers of Wei. At this time, your concubine Li Zhaoyi stood up and said, "I am deeply ashamed of Shu's death." Today, you are going to give me away to others. This is another insult to me, and I will never obey. " Li is also one of the few people with backbone in the Shuhan regime. In order to stop being humiliated, she chose to commit suicide. It's amazing to have such a person around Liu Chan.
Later generations also respect Liu Chen, the king of the northern land. Now there is a statue of Liu Chen in Wuhou Temple in Chengdu, Sichuan, which is located in Liubei Temple. And it is engraved with Liu Chen's life and his constancy.
Luo Guanzhong once said this. "This subject is willing to bend your knees and be sad alone. Going to Xichuan is a great event for the Northern King. Donate the remains to repay the ancestors, scratching their heads and crying. If there is still awe, whoever is Han Yun will die. " This is the most pertinent evaluation of Liu Chen.
