Xu Jun: "The rear party started a war and the provocation was over. Longbeard suddenly fell down and escaped with his life. If Lu Fu did not die first, he might not be able to keep his name."
Zeng Guofan "The person with the strongest masculine spirit must have a great theory that cannot be concealed when he reaches the truth of affairs. He must have a heroic demeanor that cannot be violated. The Hongmen of Kuai is covered with curtains. He draws his sword to cut the pig, and he and his husband The overlord's request to return the army, and his advice to eliminate Tao when he was ill, were all the result of masculine spirit."
Liang Qichao: "If he remonstrates the love of dogs and horses in Xianyang, he will correct the failure of sleep, illness, and fatigue. , how obvious it is to the general."
Later generations know Fan Kuai because of the Hongmen Banquet, so he is branded as "loyal, brave, resourceful, and resourceful", but the real Fan Kuai is loyal, brave, and majestic.
Zhongyong: When the Hongmen Banquet was already tense and dangerous, Fan Kuai asked Zhang Liang: "How are things going today?" When he learned that "Xiang Zhuang drew his sword and danced, his intention was always with Pei Gong", Immediately after the attack, "I invite you to come in" shows the righteousness of Lord Xu (xù), the life and death of the Lord, and the righteousness of a monarch and his ministers who share the same fate and adversity - his unyielding loyalty, whether through fire or water, even to the death. Then, "bringing a sword and supporting a shield" broke into the camp. "If you want to stop, you can't stop" shows that the guard is tight, and "guards serve the ground" also shows that he is brave and powerful, and the image of a brave and fearless warrior is fully displayed.
Majestic: "Then he entered, draped in a curtain and standing to the west, looking at King Xiang angrily, with his hair pointed upward, and the canthus of his eyes cracked." Aggressive, swallowing mountains and rivers with anger, his domineering command The overlord of Western Chu was also afraid, how could he not be majestic? Fan Kuai's rudeness was rewarded with Xiang Yu's "strong man" courtesy: wine, meat, and a seat. "Fan Kuai threw his shield on the ground, put it on his shoulder, drew his sword, cut it and ate it."
Wife: Lu Yu. After Fan Kuai's death, Lu Yu became the Marquis of Linguang. "I am absolutely afraid of him." The minister hated him to the core. After Empress Lu took charge of the government, she took over the affairs of the court, and all ministers were afraid of her. Nine years later, Empress Lu died. Chen Ping and Zhou Bo led the ministers to kill the relatives of Lu Pheasant and Lu Yuhua.
Sons: Fan and his wife, who were direct descendants. After the Zhulu Rebellion, ministers executed the Lu clan and Lu Yu's relatives, and Fan and his wife were killed. Wuyang Houzhong died for several months. The Fanshi people who were born as concubines later succeeded Wuyang Marquis and restored their original title and food. A native of Fan City died in the 29th year of his reign, and his posthumous title was Huanghou.
Sun Tzu: Fan Taguang inherited the title of Marquis of Wuyang, but a member of the Hou family of Wuyang offended Fan Taguang and was punished by Fan Taguang. He felt resentful, so he secretly reported to Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty that he : "The people of Huanghou Fanshi actually have hidden diseases that are inhumane. Fan Taguang is not the son of Fanshi people. He is the child that Fanshi people ordered his wife to have with the brother of Fanshi people. Therefore, Fan Taguang should not have any diseases. Qualifications for inheriting the title of Fanshi people. "In 143 BC, the fourth generation of Wuyang Marquis Fan Taguang was "deprived of the title of commoner, and the country was eliminated."
Great-grandson: Introduction to Fan Zhang and Fan Kuai, Han Dynasty. In the second year of the Yuan Dynasty of Emperor Ping, the heirs of Fan Kuai's family died out. Emperor Ping of the Han Dynasty granted Fan Zhang, the son of Kuai's great-great-grandson, the title of Marquis of Wuyang, with a population of thousands of households.
77th generation grandson: Fan Xiantao, now the general manager of Fan Kuai Dog Meat Company in Peixian County. Fan Xiantao said: For two thousand years, the ancestral motto of "only do business and not be an official" has been circulated within the Fan family. From Fan Taguang to his generation, 73 generations of "common people" have passed, and almost every generation has been a farmer, but the Fan family's dog meat with turtle juice has also been passed down. Even when the Japanese invaded Peicheng, the 76th generation grandson Fan Huaiyu took almost nothing with him except a can of turtle juice and dog meat soup when he fled. "Because our ancestors sacrificed their lives to protect him, the secret skills passed down from ancestors can be passed down."
At that time, Fan Kuai was running a dog meat business in the old county town. Liu Bang, the director of the Sishui Pavilion, loved to eat the dog meat he made, but he often ate it for free. Fan Kuai was embarrassed to argue with him, but if he didn't care about business, he would lose money, so he avoided Liu Bang later. But Liu Bang always pursued him. If he caught up, Fan Kuai would have to feed him.
One day Fan Kuai crossed the Sishui River with a load and went to Xiayang Town on the east bank to sell. Liu Bang couldn't find Fan Kuai in the county market. He was so anxious that he asked around. Later, someone told him that Fan Kuai had gone to Hedong. Liu Bang came to the bank of the Surabaya River, but he had no money and the ferryman refused to punt for him. When I was in trouble, an old turtle as big as a tabletop came swimming in the river.
Liu Bang said to Lao Gui that I am Liu Bang and I want to cross the river. Can you carry me across? After hearing this, the old turtle took the initiative to swim to the shore and carried Liu Bang across the river.
Statue of Fan Kuai
When Liu Bang came to Xiayang Town, he quickly found Fan Kuai. Fan Kuai was stunned for a moment and then cut him a piece of dog meat. Liu Bang didn't say much and just sat on the ground and ate it. . Fan Kuai knew that Liu Bang had no money, so he asked him how he crossed the river. While Liu Bang was eating, he said that there was an old turtle in the river. He said he was Liu Bang, and the old turtle carried him over. After hearing this, Fan Kuai rolled his eyes and had an idea.
The next day Fan Kuai came to the river with a rope and a knife. He shouted into the river: "Old Turtle, Old Turtle, I am Liu Bang, and I want to cross the river." The old turtle didn't know if it was a lie, but soon Just swam over. Fan Kuai swung the rope and roped the old turtle up. Fan Kuai introduced that he killed the old turtle in a few seconds, then took the turtle meat home and put it in a pot to cook with the dog meat.
While the food was cooking, Fan Kuai’s house was surrounded by people, and all the dog meat was sold out that day. Fan Kuai was puzzled and thought carefully that turtle meat might have played a role in it, so he saved the pot of soup and continued to use it to cook dog meat.
When Liu Bang heard that Lao Gui had been killed by Fan Kuai, he angrily came to his door and cursed him, and confiscated his knife. From then on, Fan Kuai did not use a knife to sell dog meat, but shredded it with his hands, so the Fan family Dog meat has been sold for generations by tearing it up by hand. In order to preserve the old pot of soup, Fan Kuai used the soup and soil to make a paste and dried it in the sun. When cooking the dog meat, he broke off a piece and soaked it in water to settle, and then put the water in the pot. This became a secret recipe handed down from his ancestors.
