Zhuge Jin

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Zhūgé Jǐn (諸葛瑾) (AD 174 - 241), courtesy name Ziyu (Wade-Giles: Tzŭ-yu) (子瑜), was a minister of the Kingdom of Wu of China and elder brother of the famous Shu strategist Zhuge Liang. He was greatly trusted by Sun Quan. His most important accomplishment was in smoothing relations between Wu and Shu. His son Zhuge Ke succeeded him, and became a great Wu general, but later failed as a regent, leading to the destruction of the Zhuge clan.

Zhuge Jin also had another son named Zhuge Qiao, who was adopted by his brother Zhuge Liang and his wife, Huang Yue Ying.
