Why does Zhuge Liang always hold a feather fan, and why do you hold it when it s hot and cold?

Su Shi once wrote a poem, which contained a sentence, but it vividly depicted the image of a Confucian general who was calm and comfortable when fighting, talked and laughed elegantly, and mastered the situation on the battlefield. With a fan in his hand and a cyan turban on his head, he looks like a literati.

It was the old Taoist priest of the White Crane who plucked his fan made of forty-nine feathers, and shook the fan with that fan, and his wisdom would be like a spring.

It is said that it allowed him to come up with a clever plan immediately, which made him suddenly enlightened and refreshed, and many people followed suit, so it also became a symbol of elegance and wisdom.

The feather fan was given by Zhuge Liang's wife Huang Yueying, who wanted Zhuge Liang to cover his face with a fan to hide his mood swings and prevent others from finding out.

It shows that this fan is definitely not an ordinary fan used to cool off, and there must be some unknown secrets on it. It is said that this fan was Huang Yueying's dowry when he got married. Huang Yueying is not a simple character, so this fan is even more unsimple.

This is the image given to us by the TV series, Zhuge Liang has been holding a feather fan, just to create an image of ease and cleverness.

Because it was sent by his wife, it is said that when Zhuge Liang came out of the mountain, his wife Huang Yueying was very reluctant, Huang Yueying thought about it, so she gave Zhuge Liang a goose feather fan.

Because Zhuge Liang's feather fan was made by his wife with the feathers of the Dapeng bird, and gave it to Zhuge Liang, Zhuge Liang was asked to carry it with him, reminding him that he had to calm down first in case of trouble, so that he could deal with it calmly.

On the top of the fan, there are two words written on it: bright and bright. In these two words, there are many strategies for governing the country, stabilizing the people, and how to fight wars.

This is just the effect in the film and television drama, it should give people a feeling of Zhuge Liang's clever calculations and create the image of a strategist.

Hair fan! Zhuge Liang's goose feather fan represents wisdom and talent, so in operas about Zhuge Liang, Kong Ming always holds a goose feather fan in his hand. There is a story about the goose feather fan, Huang Chengyan's daughter, Huang Yueying, is not ugly, but a very smart, beautiful and talented girl.

Huang Chengyan was afraid that promising young people would not know Jingshan jade with eyes, so he called his daughter "ugly". Ugly Huang Yueying is not only sturdy, but also has excellent martial arts, she once studied under a famous teacher. When Yicheng went down the mountain, the master gave her a goose feather fan, with the words "bright" and "bright" written on it.

The two characters are also densely hidden in the strategy of attacking the city and conquering the land and governing the country and the country. And instructed her that whoever has the word bright in his name is your wishful husband. Later, Huang Chengyan's fast son-in-law was Zhuge Liang, the future prime minister of Shu who waited for the time and knew that the world was divided into three parts of the world before he came out of Longzhong.

When she got married, Huang Yueying gave the goose feather fan to Zhuge Liang as a gift. Kong Ming's love for goose feather fans is like a pearl in the palm of his hand, and he is inseparable. In doing so, he not only expressed the sincere love between their husband and wife, but more importantly, he skillfully used the strategy on the fan.

So no matter spring, summer, autumn or winter, always keep your hands on the fan. During the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty, Zhao Hongen, the Xiangyang observer, wrote in the "Zhuge Caolu Poems": "The fan shakes the battle moon and divides the three points, and the stone is dark and cloudy", which is enough to prove the function of Zhuge Liang holding a goose feather fan and the reason why his hand does not leave the fan.

In the TV series "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", no matter in the hot summer or the cold winter, Zhuge Liang always keeps his hands on the fan, and the goose feather fan has become an important "prop" for Zhuge Liang. It is said that after Liu Bei looked at the thatched house, Zhuge Liang unified out of the mountain to help Liu, before leaving, his old father-in-law in order to let his son-in-law serve the Han family loyally, he gave him a goose feather fan, and said: The goose is the most cautious and clever bird, such as sending the goose to keep vigil at night, when the wind blows, the goose will be alert to predict the enemy's movements to cover the same kind of escape.

Zhuge Liang kept in mind his father-in-law's teachings, and never left the fan at any time, so as to remind himself to act cautiously and cleverly at any time.

Originally, Zhuge Liang's feather fan was given by Huang Yueying, and this gift represents the light and affectionate gift. There is also a second meaning that I hope Zhuge Liang will be happier, because he is worried about the national problems of Cao Cao, Sun Quan and others, and hopes that he will use a feather fan to cover his face.

This only played a decorative role, because Zhuge Liang was just a strategist, it was impossible for him to hold a weapon without the strength of a chicken, and holding a fan could make the enemy think he was very powerful.

This is a habit of his thinking about problems, his hands will move when he thinks about problems, and the feather fan is also to hide him.

First of all, the image of Zhuge Liang's feather fan mainly comes from "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", however, Zhuge Liang's liking to hold a feather fan is not Luo Guanzhong's creation out of thin air. In Chen Shou's "Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms", there are also records such as "Ge scarf hair fan, commanding the three armies". The feather fan, which is made of bird feathers, is an ancient traditional handicraft of the Han nationality.

The lupine is the earliest in the fan family and has a history of more than 2,000 years. In the historical stage from the end of the Han Dynasty to the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, the feather fan became a favorite art for scholars and literati. In other words, the original function of the lupine fan may have been to cool off, but because the literati liked to write and paint on it, it gradually became a work of art.

Therefore, for Zhuge Liang, holding a feather fan is not a strange behavior, but it is in line with the trend of the time, just like people wear suits and ties now, for the scholars of the late Han Dynasty, Wei and Jin dynasties, they like to hold a feather fan. At the same time, the world-famous Zhuge Liang holds a big feather fan all year round, in addition to putting "cool" and showing his elegant temperament, a very important role is to block the wind. As we all know, after Liu Bei's death, Zhuge Liang led his army on several northern expeditions.

The places where Zhuge Liang and Sima Yi and other Wei generals fought were mainly in the area of present-day Gansu Province. For the area, it is dry and windy, and there may be sand and dust, so it is very reasonable for Zhuge Liang to use a feather fan to shield the wind and sand.

Moreover, for the goose feather fan that Zhuge Liang often holds in his hands, it is said that he has a close relationship with his wife Huang Yueying. Huang Yueying was a native of Baishui, Jingzhou (now Xiangyang, Hubei) during the Three Kingdoms, the daughter of Huang Chengyan, a famous scholar in Cangyang, and the wife of Zhuge Liang. After Liu Bei visited the thatched house three times, Zhuge Liang decided to go out of the mountain to assist Liu Bei.

Before Zhuge Liang left, Huang Yueying made a fan for Zhuge Liang with her own hands, and on the handle of this feather fan, Huang Yueying drew eight arrays and asked Kong Ming to carry it with him. Through a fan, Huang Yueying hopes to remind Zhuge Liang not to forget the love between husband and wife on the one hand, and to warn him to calm his anger on the other hand.

Finally, in ancient Chinese history, this pair of Huang Yueying gave Zhuge Liang a feather fan, and there is also a theory that it was because they were not worried about Zhuge Liang's safety. After all, during the Three Kingdoms period, Zhuge Liang often led his troops to fight, and if he encountered an ambush or something, he might end up with Pang. On this basis, Huang Yueying made a feather fan for Zhuge Liang and told Kong Ming:

The goose is the most alert, and when there is a wind and grass, it knows the movement. If you carry a goose feather fan with you, you can play an early warning effect. ”

It is worth mentioning that there is a point of view that Zhuge Liang is not holding a fan made of feathers, as mentioned earlier in the "Three Kingdoms", it is a "hair fan". There is also the Song magazine "Art and Literature Gathering" volume 67 quotes "Yulin" as saying: Zhuge Wuhou and the emperor fought in Weibin, and the emperor Xuanhuang served in the matter, which made people look at Wuhou:

Take the plain talk, the scarf, the hair fan, and the three armies, all follow it. Emperor Xuan sighed when he heard this: "It can be described as a celebrity!" ”

Zhuge Liang lupine scarf, holding a fan in winter. It is "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" to create an elegant image of Zhuge Liang, a dramatic effect.

It's cold. Because although Zhuge Liang is resourceful, he is a mortal after all, and he is afraid of the cold, but he is used to holding a feather fan, so he will feel cold in winter.

In winter, he feels cold, just like some people like to wear bracelets and necklaces, and he doesn't take a feather fan to fan a fan, it's just a special hobby of his personal.

Zhuge Liang held the feather fan to cover his expression and prevent others from seeing what he was thinking, and he didn't fan all the time.

In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Zhuge Liang waved a feather fan as soon as he appeared, wearing a Taoist robe, and carrying a fairy wind and bones floating out of the dust, and even many people mistakenly thought that the feather fan was his exclusive equipment. In fact, this is not the case, Su Shi's "Water Tune Song Head" wrote that "where the lupine towel talks and laughs, the canopy is in ashes", obviously referring to the protagonist Zhou Gongjin. There is also a sentence in the book "Jisheng of the Land", "Waving the shore scarf, thinking about the sharp of Gongjin back then".

It can be seen that Zhou Yu was also holding a feather fan back then, sitting in the army, talking and laughing to determine life and death. Although in the movie "Red Cliff" he is holding a pheasant tail pole, this should just be a misunderstanding.

In dramas and pictures, Zhuge Liang is always dressed in gossip clothes, holding a goose feather fan, with a posture of strategizing and winning thousands of miles. Legend has it that the goose feather fan was a gift from the Huang family. Zhuge Liang went out of the mountain to assist Liu Bei, before leaving, Huang made a fan with a Dapeng bird wing given to her by his father, and the fan handle was painted with eight arrays, and Zhuge Liang wanted to carry it with him, one did not forget the love of husband and wife, the second was of great benefit to the march and battle, and the third warned him to calm his anger.

Huang said to Zhuge Liang: "When you talk to your father about the world's major events, I find that when you talk about the great ambition in your chest, you are full of ambition; When Mr. Liu Bei wants to invite you out of the mountain, his eyebrows fluttered; When he talked about Cao Cao, he frowned; As soon as Sun Quan was mentioned, he was worried. The eldest husband must be calm when doing things, I gave you this fan to cover your face and cover your face. ”

I think that there must be a lot of witty tricks on that feather fan, of course, it also plays a role that can make people think calmly, when you are thinking about a problem, you may be embarrassed, but Zhuge Liang is a military advisor, if he is embarrassed, it will lower the morale of the soldiers, so, I think, he can, through the feather fan to relieve the tension of thinking, get more calm, plain, so, he has been holding a feather fan.

First of all, in the official history "Three Kingdoms", Zhuge Liang and"Feather fan"The three words have nothing to do with each other. However, it is mentioned in the "Shishuo Supplement": Zhuge Wuhou and Sima Xuanwang ruled the army in Weibin, Keri was at war, and King Xuan's service made people look at Wuhou, and he rode Suyu alone, Ge scarf, Mao Fan, and pointed to the three armies, and followed his advance.

King Xuan sighed: "Zhuge Jun can be described as a celebrity! Here, a kudzu scarf hair fan is used to compare with Sima Yi's "military clothes".

Because in the late Han Dynasty, Wei and Jin dynasties, those who wore secondary clothes were all dressed as Confucian generals. Therefore, I think that this is a technique to enhance the image of the characters, and the influence of ancient culture and theater culture in TV and movies, on this basis, deepen the depiction of the image of the literati.

The feather fan is just a deep-rooted impression of Zhuge Liang, perhaps, he doesn't like to take a feather fan, or it may be an emphasis of later generations on his literati image, in line with his scheming image, and an additional condition added to him, or it may be a take-out symbol specially set up by later generations for the distinct distinction and division of TV series and movie characters, all in all, I don't think that Zhuge Liang also holds a feather fan in winter.

Lupine scarf, talking and laughing, the canopy is gone. When it comes to this well-known poem, you will generally think of Zhuge Liang, who gently shook the feather fan on the battlefield and strategized to win a thousand miles. In ** and TV series, Zhuge Liang always fanned his hand no matter where he went, and the image of a strategist holding a feather fan has almost been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Taking a lupine is not Zhuge Liang's patent, and scholars during the Three Kingdoms period all took Eguan Bo belt and lupine scarf as fashion. It is said that the fan in Zhuge Liang's hand was a meeting gift given to him by his future wife Huang Yueying when he first came to ask for marriage.

Liang Hongda mentioned this question in his own program before, I don't know if it's correct, but it's also quite interesting. In the movie Chibi, others asked Mr. Kong Ming, you fan the fan in summer to be cool, what is it for in winter? Kong Ming said it was to calm down.

Mr. Kong Ming's wife, Huang Yueying, once gave Mr. Kong Ming a fan, because she felt that Kong Ming was happy, which was not conducive to his communication outside. If you have any ideas, you will fan them, and others will not see your face.

Historically, it was not necessary to hold a feather fan. I think this is the technique in the romance, but whenever Kong Ming appears, the lupine scarf, over time, the picture in the reader's heart is formed unconsciously. Now when it comes to Zhuge Liang, who didn't think of the appearance of wielding a feather fan, which proves that Luo Guanzhong is skillful in shaping the role.

For this problem, I have seen a lot of nonsensical on the Internet before, I remember that one is, in order to reduce, the high temperature after the high-speed operation of the brain, I feel, this makes a bit of sense, but when I think about it, it is not particularly right, if this is the case, then Zhuge Liang in winter, still take a feather fan? Therefore, I feel that a reliable answer is that Zhuge Liang's image comes from the records of the ancients, and because the content of the records is less, it can only be generalized.
