Spoiling History: Starting from the Three Kingdoms

Han Chinese?

Aren’t they Han Chinese?

Everyone in the hall was refreshed. Ever since Shizong (Emperor Wu) swept across all directions, the people of the Han Dynasty were proud of Han. They were all called Han people regardless of Qin, Chu or Wei. They took the name of their country and called them Han people.

"After more than a thousand years and more than ten dynasties, future generations have praised the Tang Dynasty more, regretted the Song Dynasty more, and praised the Ming Dynasty more, but they still call themselves Han people?"

Everyone instantly felt a lot closer to the juniors, and even the two young men who walked over just now looked much taller and taller.

"Well, although I am thin, I have the bearing of a Han family man. Not bad!"

Even Liu Bei's expression softened a lot when he looked at the men, women, and children posing in various poses with unknown small boxes in their hands at the entrance of his temple.

Forget it, forget it, after all, we are all juniors, just be happy.

[An interesting thing about the inscription on the memorial tablet is that it is signed by General Yue Feiyue.

According to the inscription, the general who insisted on the Northern Expedition to resist the Jin Dynasty and the prime minister who launched the Northern Expedition to restore the Han Dynasty resonated with each other across time and space.

So General Yue wrote the order of departure in front of us with a splash of ink. The entire calligraphy begins in regular script and ends in cursive script. The characters are thick and exciting, and the writing is strong but not soft.

However, there are many historical materials in the Song Dynasty, and there is no record of Yue Fei's visit to Wuhou Temple in Nanyang. Therefore, this calligraphy is generally considered to be fake but not inferior. 】

"This General Yue Mingfei is the general of Ninth Sister Wan Yangou?"

Basic information was pieced together from a few words:

"This Song Dynasty is like the Shu Han who wants to conquer the north and is treacherous and rebellious. It's a pity!"

"This Song Dynasty minister is also capable of turning the tide, so respectable!"

"This Song Dynasty has no allies like Sun Wu, so lucky!"

Jiang Wan smiled and said:

"But General Zhang, judging from the conversation between the two boys just now, the horseback emperor Wan Yangou has a particularly bad reputation. It seems that he is far from the general's guess."

Although I don't understand the slang of later generations, the two comments just now don't sound like good words.

Zhang Fei didn't say anything harsh, he was just a little distracted when he looked at the writing on the light screen.

[We pass through the Zhaolie Temple to reach the Wuhou Temple. Because there are differences between monarchs and ministers, we need to go down a few steps.

I won’t go into details about the three familiar couplets located in the entrance hall. There is also a handwriting of the painter Xu Beihong behind the plaque in the hall.

The inscription "A feather in the sky of eternity" comes from a poem written by Du Fu, the prime minister's biggest fan in the Tang Dynasty, praising the prime minister for being like a phoenix in the sky. 】

Although already prepared.

Although the previous light curtains have already felt the impact of being a master.

But now Kong Ming still feels a little hot on his face. How can he be so praised and missed by future generations?

Kong Ming felt a lot of pressure at the moment.

Others smiled and pointed:

"Brother, it took you three times to invite the military advisor back, and future generations will know."

“Kong Ming Longzhong’s views on the opposition were far-reaching and worthy of such praise!”

[After passing the hall is the Wuhou Temple, which is also a place where literati and poets have worshiped for thousands of years.

The most famous one is undoubtedly the couplets hanging on both sides of the door, which not only comment on the prime minister's achievements, but also contain many subtle remarks.

Co-writer Zhao Fan also used this pen to remonstrate with the Sichuan governor who suppressed the uprising at that time. Although the failure of his remonstrance resulted in his demotion, it also allowed Zhao Fan to see through the corrupt nature of the Qing Dynasty.

This also allowed Zhao Fan to make the most important decision later: I revolted! Joined the Revolution of 1911 to sound the death knell for the Qing Dynasty. 】

This word is so eye-catching that everyone can't take their eyes away.

"The words of the younger generation are so full of praise. Do you think their kingless dynasty was born out of this?" The younger generation mentioned too little, so Liu Bei could only try his best to guess:

"Changing the destiny and complying with the people should be the foundation for the dynasty of future generations." Kong Ming thought of the copybook he gave to his descendants, saying that the glory belongs to the people, and made a guess.

"There is neither an emperor nor a prince, the aristocratic family is not prominent, and the country is governed by the common people." Kong Ming still finds it difficult to imagine what the dynasty of his descendants will be like.

Does corruption in the imperial court require revolution? Liu Bei remembered the astonishing sentence "The sky is dead and the yellow sky must stand", and the judgment of later generations at this time: "The powerful people invaded the mausoleum, divided the fields and robbed the country. The name is thirty tax, one, but the actual tax is five." Ask yourself: Was the Later Han Dynasty corrupt?

It is difficult to have an answer to this question. On the sidelines, Kong Ming was enthusiastically commenting on the final conclusion of his coffin by later generations.

"The theory of attacking the heart and being lenient in this couplet is quite good. The idea of ​​attacking the heart is similar to that of attacking the enemy. Eliminating the rebels is to attack the dissenters. This method is also similar to that of Taizu in later generations who made many friends. There is a similar meaning."

"This second couplet also believes that leniency and severity should be combined. The Legalist's 'Crime and gold are a hundred yi, and thieves will not break the soles' and the Confucian's 'Punishment of the world is light and the world is heavy' need to be adopted according to the situation."

“To be lenient is to compensate for the strong, and to be lenient is to compensate for the lenient. Combining lenience and severity is the most correct decision to govern a place.”

Jiang Wan and Ma Liang were full of admiration: "Congratulations, military advisor!"

[You can see the Jingyuan Hall behind Zhuge Liang's statue after entering the door.

Why is it called Jingyuantang? Looking up, we can see that the main hall of Wuhou Temple is a piece of ebony, with the words "Indifferent, Mingzhi, Tranquility and Zhiyuan" engraved on it.

These eight characters come from the "Book of Commandments" written by the Prime Minister. They are also the Prime Minister's motto in life and the origin of the name of Jingyuantang. 】

"Although it is not as grand as the Zhaolie Temple, the Wuhou Temple is particularly thoughtful!" Liu Bei sighed. Although the temple is not big, it can be revealed in every aspect, whether it is the couplets and inscriptions, the choice of the name of the temple, or the special carvings on the temple beams. Later generations respect and care for Kong Ming.

"Hey, brother, haven't you already said it? We are all just using the military advisor's incense." Zhang Fei laughed and patted Liu Bei's arm:

"Although I, Lao Zhang, am your eldest brother's chaperone, if you think about it from another perspective, we are all the strategist's chaplains. Didn't you see that the name of the temple is gone, eldest brother?"

Guan Ping whispered: "But at least there are still a lot of people worshiping uncle... And third uncle, look at the statue of You that has been made like that."

Zhang Fei's face was suffocated.

"Moreover, Uncle Baidi entrusted Gu Gu's name to be passed down to future generations, so he deserves to be named a virtuous person."

Zhang Fei became even more speechless when he thought about the way he died.

snort! As expected, I, Lao Zhang, still feel that Guan Xing is closer to my nephew!

Liu Bei's disappointment was relieved a lot.

[The Wuhou Temple is similar to the Zhangfei Temple. It is also worshiped by three generations, namely Zhuge Zhan, the son of the prime minister, and Zhuge Shang, the grandson of the prime minister.

Zhuge Zhan was thinking far ahead. When he came to power, he did not correct Liu Chan's behavior of favoring and trusting eunuchs internally. Externally, he wasted the opportunity to fight, leading to his defeat and death.

But to be fair, the prime minister had been busy with the Northern Expedition, and when he died, he only had time to leave a "Book of Commandments" to eight-year-old Zhuge Zhan.

There was a lack of education for children, and in the late Shu Han Dynasty, the number of outstanding talents had been exhausted. Liu Chan was also ill and sought medical treatment in the hope that Xiangfu's son could create miracles.

But in the end Mianzhu fell, Zhuge Zhan died in battle at the age of thirty-seven, and Zhuge Shang died with his father at the age of nineteen. 】
