贾逵 / Jia Kui (late Han)

Overview

贾逵 / Jia Kui (late Han) enters the wiki through Hanji 1056 as the Jiang County defender in 河东郡 during 郭援 / 郭元’s Yuan-family western campaign. The episode uses him as a local-office and reputation case: even after military defeat, his standing with local elders, officials, and common people limits what the occupying commander can safely do to him.

Current Profile

When Guo Yuan attacks Hedong, Jia Kui defends the Jiang County position. The local elders eventually agree to surrender, but only on the condition that Jia Kui not be harmed. Guo Yuan initially agrees, then becomes angry when Jia Kui refuses to accept service under him and attempts to punish or kill him. Officials and people protect Jia Kui, and Guo Yuan ultimately confines him at Huguan in a pit or cellar rather than executing him immediately. 祝公道 secretly rescues Jia Kui at night, turning a defeated local defense into a survival story grounded in public protection.

Key Characteristics

• Hedong/Jiang County defender whose profile is currently bounded to Hanji 1056.
• Local official whose authority survives military defeat through community protection.
• Refuses to serve Guo Yuan after surrender, making political loyalty visible under coercion.
• Protected by local elders, officials, and common people as a people-based security case.
• Rescued from confinement by Zhu Gongdao, making his survival depend on local networks rather than battlefield strength.

Evidence

• Defense and conditional surrender: Hanji 1056 says Jia Kui guards the Jiang County branch of Hedong and that local elders accept surrender only if Guo Yuan spares him.
• Refusal under coercion: Hanji 1056 says Jia Kui refuses Guo Yuan’s demand for cooperation, drawing Guo Yuan’s anger.
• Public protection and rescue: Hanji 1056 says officials and people protect Jia Kui from execution and that Zhu Gongdao later rescues him from confinement.

Qualifications

This is a single-source entity page. It does not yet supply Jia Kui’s full career, exact office title, later service, or independent corroboration of the Jiang County events. The page therefore treats Jia Kui’s local standing and rescue as Hanji 1056’s bounded contribution, not a complete biography.

What Changed

• Created this page from Hanji 1056’s Hedong/Jiang County branch.

Relationships

• 河东郡 - campaign region where Jia Kui’s defense and local protection occur.

• 祝公道 - rescuer who extracts Jia Kui from Guo Yuan’s confinement.
• 民心型政治安全 - concept illustrated by the way local protection limits Guo Yuan’s coercion.
• 道德名望政治资本 - adjacent concept because Jia Kui’s public standing becomes a usable survival resource.
• 守官赴死 - contrast concept: Jia Kui’s office loyalty creates risk, but Hanji 1056 emphasizes rescue rather than death.
