Huang Hao
When the eunuch Huang Hao rose to power in the Shu government around the 250s, many officials fawned on him in the hope of receiving favours from him. Luo Xian was one of the officials who refused to have any dealings with Huang Hao. As a result, Huang Hao resented him and found an excuse to send him out of Chengdu, the Shu capital, to serve as the Administrator of Badong Commandery (巴東郡; around present-day Fengjie County, Chongqing) near the border between Shu and its ally state Wu. At the time, as the Shu general Yan Yu (閻宇) was already in charge of guarding Badong Commandery, the Shu emperor Liu Shan reassigned Luo Xian to be an Army Commandant (領軍) and ordered him to serve as Yan Yu's deputy.
