Historical Information
Wen Hu followed his brother and father to Shouchun as Wu officers to assist Zhuge Dan in his rebellion against the Sima family. When supplies were nearly depleted, Wen Qin requested that they should surrender to Sima Zhao, and Zhuge Dan replied by executing Wen. Upon seeing their father's death, Wen Yang and Wen Hu jumped over the castle walls to rejoin Wei, and Sima Zhao treated both brothers as guests. Seeing the warm treatment that Wen Hu and his brother received caused morale in Shouchun to plummet even further, and Zhuge Dan was eventually killed while trying to escape.
After Zhuge Dan's death, Wen Hu would continue serving Wei then Jin after Cao Huan abdicated the throne to Sima Yan. In 291, however, Wen Yang was falsely accused of collaborating with Yang Jun to commit treason, so he and his family were all sentenced to death. Wen Hu was among those who were executed.
