Those who have watched the Romance of the Three Kingdoms may not be unfamiliar with these two people, and of course it is impossible to remember them.
But these two people can hold power during the period of Emperor Cao Rui of Wei Ming, and it is unceremonious to say that if there were no these two people, there would be no Western Jin Dynasty behind, Sima Yi might be crushed by Cao Shuang, and he couldn't even turn over. can reach the point where the future generations will grasp the power of a country, and the two are definitely not mediocre talents.
And they can stand out in the Wei State, which has many talents, and their ability and wisdom are definitely not bad.
In addition, from the fact that Sun Zi and Liu Fang died of old age in the end, rather than being killed, we can see the survival wisdom of the two of them.
Cao Chong already has a lot of talents around him.
But there are not many people who can be trusted.
And Sun Zi Liu Fang is a person who can be trusted by himself.
There is no other reason.
None of them have a shadow of a family behind them, and in a way they are all from humble backgrounds.
There were three families in the front of the Jin, and three families returned to the Jin, and among the three families before and after, there happened to be a "Wei", which is a big coincidence in the history of the country.
Similarly, there is another coincidence that also occurred during this period, Sun Zi and Liu Fang, who were in charge of the affairs of the middle book in the early period of Cao Wei, played an important role in Emperor Tuogu of Wei Ming, which gave Sima Yi the authority of the third dynasty in Wei.
Later, Sima Yi relied on the coup d'état of Gao Pingling to turn the tables, completely embarked on the private cause of usurping Wei Jianjin, and completed the co-optation of Sun Hao and Liu Chan in the hands of his descendants.
In the end, after the fall of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, there were Sun En and Liu Yu, a pair of children and grandsons Liu, one Yu Lu Xun successively exhausted the economic foundation of the Jiangnan of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and the other stole the authority of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, which can be described as a defeat of Sun Liu.
The reason why Cao Chong is so concerned about Sun Zi and Liu Fang is precisely because of their resumes.
The resumes of Sun and Liu, except for the slightly different channels for entering the office, basically took the route of "confidential secretaries subordinate to the bureaucrats of the hegemonic government" and gradually rose to the current hussar general's palace staff.
Don't look at them as just staff, but the official position is the position of the hussar general and military advisor, which is equivalent to Cao Cao's position when he was the prime minister.
Their status is definitely not low, and it is not so easy for ordinary people to stand in this position.
First of all, they can be promoted step by step, and their ability is definitely not bad under the premise of not being a high gate.
Another point is the origin of Sun Zi Liu Fang.
The marriage between Sun Zi and Tian Yu, and the marriage between Liu Fang and Zhang Hua, were not married to the Gaomen clan of the county where they were from, so the two themselves were not the high-ranking families of the world, and they may not even be the county wang clans, they should belong to the Hanmen clan.
As the saying goes, "there is no cold door in the upper grade, and there is no powerful family in the lower grade." ” The "character" of the Wei and Jin dynasties is not only a moral character, but also a qualification for officials.
Therefore, this sentence can be said to be "the top grade is from the power family, and the lower grade is from the poor family".
It can be seen that the Han men of the Wei and Jin dynasties are not equal to the Han men of the Ming and Qing dynasties, and the Han men of the Wei and Jin dynasties do not refer to poor people, but bureaucratic landlords outside the powerful clan {national clan, local noble clan}, and they have the qualifications to serve as officials.
In other words, the "cold family" in the Wei and Jin dynasties refers to those middle- and low-level bureaucratic landlord families who have failed to marry with high-ranking officials for generations, and who have not even been able to attain the relationship between their protégés and former officials.
Born in a "poor" landlord, it is not only the reason why Sun and Liu were able to join the secretarial and confidential official positions such as the Hussar General's Palace, but also determined that the two were not considered for the establishment of the relationship network of the Hanoi clan at all, and they would not be swayed by the powerful families in the Kanto region, and they could not climb the high branches of these families.
Moreover, although the status of these two people is not low, it is definitely low compared to Cao Chong's.
Cao Chong subdued them to give them face.
And precisely, they are also people who know the times, after all, in later generations, they have been in the secret for many years, they can stand tall, and even gave Sima Yi a chance in the end, that is, his ability to see the wind and steer the rudder.
During the period when Emperor Cao Rui of Wei Ming was dying, there was a turbulence in the country, and the two seized the opportunity well and adapted to the situation.
It is not a combination of the origin of a big family and the power of a long-term secretary in charge of secrets, but the characteristics of Sun and Liu should actually be a generation of secretary-type officials who are good at observing the political situation, good at seeking their own interests, and have the most complete political information, relying on clerical talents, and have just achieved a class jump.
They have a keen sense of politics and a wealth of political intelligence, which allows them to actively speculate on their interests, rather than simply passively following the instructions of a politician.
If you follow Cao Rui's original intention to do the matter of entrusting orphans, the Cao family and Xiahou clan are the patriarchs and in-laws of the Cao Wei Dynasty, presiding over national affairs, and assisting the young lord is within their duties, and Xiahou Xian and Cao Zhao seem to have married Sun and Liu, so Cao Yu, Xiahou Xian, Cao Shuang, Cao Zhao, and Qin Lang's Cao Wei relatives are one-sided to support the orphans, even if they are in power, they will not share more political benefits to Sun and Liu.
Moreover, the young lord is on top, and the emperor's relatives are in full power, and the emperor's secretary is naturally less important than the secretary of the minister, and Sun and Liu are at risk of standing aside in the later years of their political careers.
This kind of standing on the side of the Wei and Jin dynasties is not only a trivial matter related to the retirement benefits of Sun and Liu, but also a major matter related to what kind of grade the descendants of Sun and Liu's two families will enter the government in the future family era.
In other words, the full ascension of power by Cao Weihuang's relatives will not only not bring any increase in political benefits to Sun and Liu, but will reduce the expected political benefits of Sun and Liu and even their families.
The auxiliary political structure of Cao Shuang and Sima Yi, which Sun and Liu strongly advocate, had two benefits for Sun and Liu.
First, the reason why Sima Yi rushed back to Luoyang after hearing the news was that he understood the political consequences of alibi and being late.
Sun and Liu helped Sima Yi when Sima Yi was not present, and they could get political rewards that the Cao clan and in-laws would not give.
Second, Cao Shuang represents the Cao Wei clan and Sima Yi represents the Cao Wei clan, and the two can achieve a kind of political balance in the infant period, and the power will not be tilted to one side in a short period of time.
But later, it was obvious that Sun Ziliu miscalculated.
Judging from the changes in the status of the descendants of the Sun and Liu families in the political changes during the Wei and Jin dynasties, the descendants of the Sun family entered the Taishou at the top, and the descendants of the Liu family only entered the middle and low-level official positions of the Yue cavalry captain, cavalry captain, and Langzhong, and did not enter the sequence of Wei heroes in the Sima Jin Dynasty.
It can be seen that Sima Yi's father and son do not seem to think that Sun and Liu have any special merits for the establishment of the Jin Dynasty.
It can even be said that the descendants of Sun Zi Liu Fang have not been blessed by any identity of "descendants of meritorious heroes of the Jianjin Dynasty", and have failed to achieve the transcendence of the starting officials and official careers.
After all, the merits of Sun and Liu can be considered senatorial candidates at best, and at worst, they are only senatorial and clerical procedures.
What's more, after Sun and Liu died in the coup d'état in Gaopingling, not only failed to participate in the future activities of Wei, but also were in a state of retirement at the time of the coup, and they were not even involved in the coup.

However, their miscalculation can only be said to be inaccurate.
They couldn't look at Cao Shuang accurately, they thought that Cao Shuang would not be too hasty and would not be completely defeated by Sima Yi in a short period of time, but unfortunately Cao Shuang's stupidity and arrogance still exceeded their expectations.
They couldn't look at Sima Yi accurately, they thought that Sima Yi would be grateful to them, after all, if it weren't for them, Sima Yi would not have been able to achieve anything later. pity Sima Yi, who looked at the wolf, did not have the slightest gratitude to them.
In addition to being inaccurate, the two of them are absolutely accurate in their control of the current situation.
And now Cao Chong needs such talents.
After all, Liangzhou is not small, and there is more than one enemy of his own, so it is impossible for Cao Chong to be separated.
And among the people he trusts, there are not many capable people, as for those talented people in the family, Cao Chong doesn't dare to say that he will hand over his back to them.
And so it goes.
Cao Chong is even more eager for Sun Zi and Liu Fang
