贾寿 / Jia Shou (Western Han)

Overview

贾寿 / Jia Shou is presented as a Western Han palace official whose return from Qi brings 吕产 urgent intelligence about the outside coalition against the Lü family.

Current Profile

Hanji 206 part 2 identifies Jia Shou as a langzhongling returning from a mission to Qi. He reportedly rebukes Lü Chan for not withdrawing earlier, reports that 灌婴 has aligned with Qi and Chu against the Lü household, and urges immediate action. Because 曹窋 hears the warning and relays it to 陈平 and 周勃, Jia Shou’s report also accelerates the opposing coalition’s seizure of the Northern Army.

Key Characteristics

• Returning envoy whose report links the Qi front to the Chang’an crisis.
• Adviser who urges Lü Chan to act after warning that outside forces have aligned against the Lü family.
• Unintentional source of intelligence for the anti-Lü ministers because Cao Ku overhears his warning.

Evidence

Warning and information spillover:

• Hanji 206 part 2 supplies Jia Shou’s office, return from Qi, warning to Lü Chan, coalition report, and Cao Ku’s presence.

Qualifications

This one-source profile does not establish Jia Shou’s wider biography, mission instructions, exact office, independent knowledge, loyalty, dialogue, timing, or later fate. The coalition report and its causal effect remain episode-attributed.
