Huang Quan

Chinese
t=黃權
s=黄权

Huang Quan (? - 240) lived during the time of the Three Kingdoms period of China. He first served the warlord Liu Zhang in the Yi Province. In 211 A.D. Huang Quan warned Liu Zhang of the designs that the ruler of the Kingdom of Shu, (Liu Bei) had on the Yi Province. He pleaded strenuously for Liu Zhang to heed his warnings, but to no avail.

When Liu Bei took over the Yi province, he employed Huang Quan employed by Liu; Liu even sought him at his household. Huang Quan took part in the campaign against the Kingdom of Wu and as the camps were burning he surrendered to the Kingdom of Wei. In that moment, some of Liu Bei's vassal suggested that Liu Bei kill his family but Liu Bei admitted his failure of this campaign and ordered Huang Quan's family spared. Then, his family was spared but his reputation was smeared, for many commanders fought to the end.Afterward, when Liu Bei died due to illness, Cao Pi's vassal celebrated, but only Huang Quan mourned in his house without visiting the Palace. Cao Pi heard of this, and trusted him more than ever. After Huang Quan learned that what he did in his own house was reported to the Cao Pi, he became extremely prudent for rest of his life and was most famously known for his ability to not showing any emotions in public.
Sima Yi did not believe Huang Quan was able to not showing any emotions so he ordered Huang Quan's cart to be sabotaged in secrecy. When Huang Quan went out next day, the axis of the cart broke and Huang Quan fell to the ground. Sima Yi agents watching from hiding were shocked to see that even Huang Quan did not say a single word and showed any emotion, just calmly got up and went back to home, even under the condition when nobody else was watching. Sima Yi was finally believing Huang Quan's self-control.
