    太元二年正月,封和爲南陽王,遣之長沙。〈《吳書》曰:和之長沙,行過蕪湖,有鵲巢于帆檣,故官寮聞之皆憂慘,以爲檣末傾危,非乆安之象。或言鵲巢之詩有「積行累功以致爵位」之言,今王至德茂行,復受國土,儻神靈以此告寤人意乎?〉四月,權薨,諸葛恪秉政。恪即和妃張之舅也。妃使黃門陳遷之建業上疏中宮,并致問於恪。臨去,恪謂遷曰:「爲我達妃,期當使勝他人。」此言頗泄。又恪有徙都意,使治武昌宮,民間或言欲迎和。及恪被誅,孫峻因此奪和璽綬,徙新都,又遣使者賜死。和與妃張辭別,張曰:「吉凶當相隨,終不獨生活也。」亦自殺,舉邦傷焉。

Zhang Fei was the consort of Sun He of Eastern Wu and Zhuge Ke’s niece. She appears in volume 59 of the Records of the Three Kingdoms; the Romance of the Three Kingdoms does not mention her.

Deeds

Before Sun Jun stripped Sun He of his seal and sash, sent him to Xindu, and ordered him to die, Sun He bade farewell to Zhang Fei. Zhang Fei said, “In fortune or misfortune, we should share it; I will never live alone,” and then killed herself to join him. (As recorded in the histories)
