在《三国演义》中有这样一段记载:刘备亲率大军与陆逊大战,遭到惨败,逃入白帝城,至次年四月病死。他于病重时,遣人到成都召诸葛亮,于是有了千古流传的“托孤”一幕。白帝城距成都约600公里,而古代蜀道艰难,往返颇费时日,说明刘备肯定是死于病程较长的绝症。 In “The Romance of the Three Kingdoms,” there is such a record: Liu Bei led the army to defeat Lu Xun and was defeated. He fled to Baidi City and died of illness in April of the following year. When he was seriously ill, he was sent to Chengdu to call Zhuge Liang. Therefore, there was a scene of “to alone” which spread through the ages. Baidi City is about 600 kilometers away from Chengdu, and the ancient roads are difficult and it takes a long time to go back and forth, indicating that Liu Bei must have died of a terminal illness.
