Listen to the Songtao at Wuhou Temple_3100 words

"Where can I find the ancestral hall of the Prime Minister? Outside Jinguan City, there is a lot of cypresses. The green grass reflects the spring color on the steps, and the oriole's voice is heard in the sky through the leaves. Three visits frequently make plans for the world, and two dynasties open up the hearts of old ministers. Before leaving the army. He who dies quickly will make the hero burst into tears." This is a poem left by Du Fu, a great poet of the Tang Dynasty, when he visited Wuhou Temple in Chengdu.

If he had come to Nanyang Wuhou Temple, seen the ancient beauty of Nanyang Wuhou Temple, and recited Prime Minister Zhuge's "I am a commoner, and worked hard in Nanyang" before and after the "Departure of the Master", he would definitely have exclaimed. A deeper sigh. As a native of Nanyang, Henan, I came to Wollongong for the first time today. With unspeakable admiration and solemnity, I visited the world-famous Wuhou Ancestral Hall. The weather is clear and clear, without a trace of cloud, but looking at the Wuhou Temple from a distance, with a forest of pines and cypresses and waves of pine waves, the hot and hot mood feels cool and light for no reason. Could it be that the heroic soul of Zhuge Wuhou is silently Guard it? Nanyang Wuhou Temple, also known as Zhuge Temple, is located in Wolonggang, southwest of Nanyang City.

It is an ancestral hall built by the ancients to commemorate Zhuge Liang, a famous politician, thinker and military strategist during the Three Kingdoms period, who worked hard in Nanyang. Nanyang Wolonggang was first built in the Wei and Jin Dynasties and flourished in the Tang and Song Dynasties. Liu Yuxi's "Inscription on the Humble Room" says: "Zhuge Lu in Nanyang, Yunting in Xishuzi". Li Bai's "Travel to the Southern Capital": "Whoever knows Wolong Guest will sing long and worry about the spots on his temples." It can be seen that Wollongong has become a famous cultural landscape in the Tang Dynasty. The temple was destroyed by war in the early Yuan Dynasty. In the second year of Dade of the Yuan Dynasty (1298), the Nanyang government funded large-scale reconstruction, and in the second year of Yanyou (1315), Kongming Academy was added. Unfortunately, at the end of the Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, it was burned again in a military disaster. During the Chenghua period of the Ming Dynasty, the "Kongming Academy" was restored. Later, it was repaired by Hongzhi, Zhengde, Jiajing, Longqing, Wanli and Chongzhen dynasties.

In 1528 AD, Emperor Jiaqing of the Ming Dynasty specially gave the "Zhongwu" temple forehead and sacrifices to Wuhou Temple in Nanyang. In the fifty-first year of Emperor Kangxi's reign in the Qing Dynasty (1712), Luo Jing, the governor of Nanyang County, carried out another large-scale renovation and expansion. During this construction, a stone carving chanting the Ten Scenes of Wollongong was discovered. Luo Jing restored it based on this stone carving. Today, the main architectural layout of Wuhou Temple still maintains the form of the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties. There are currently 267 halls and buildings in Wuhou Temple. The main buildings are arranged on a central axis from east to west, divided into front and back levels. From the mountain gate to the main worship hall, the left and right corridors are the front part, where people worship Zhuge Liang. The thatched cottage, Gubai Pavilion, Yeyun Temple, Gonggeng Pavilion, Bingyue Platform, Xiaohong Bridge, Baoxi Stone, Laolong Cave, and Gonggengtian at the rear are monumental buildings built based on Zhuge Liang's daily life during his "Gonggeng" period. things. Finally, there is Ningyuan Tower, also known as Qingfeng Tower. Outside the mountain gate are "Zhuge Well" and "Danning Reading Table". The left courtyard is related to Zhang Hall, Sangu Hall, etc.

There is Zhuge Academy under the stage. The entire Wollongong area covers an area of ??120,000 square meters. The mountain gate with the golden plaque "Eternal Dragon" is the starting point of Wuhou Temple. Climb up the stairs, pass through the stone stele square and the Immortal Bridge engraved with "The Three Visits of Emperor Zhaolie of the Han Dynasty", and face the main building of the ancestral hall - the Dabai Hall. There is a statue of Zhuge Kongming in the hall, wearing a turban and a feather fan, with an elegant and lifelike expression. On both sides are the statues of his son Zhuge Zhan and his grandson Zhuge Shang. The scroll shed outside the main hall is full of plaques and couplets, and the two walls are also inlaid with handwritings and stone carvings of famous literati from past dynasties, in genuine, cursive, seal and official script, each with its own characteristics. After passing the main hall, there is the Zhuge Thatched Cottage, which is as fluffy as an umbrella, simple and beautiful.

Zhuge Thatched Cottage, also known as Zhuge Nunnery, today’s thatched cottage has a brick and wood structure with octagonal overhangs, an octagonal corridor around the periphery, and the roof is covered with thatch. On the main entrance of the thatched cottage hangs a plaque of "Zhuge Thatched Cottage" written by Guo Moruo. It is said that this is where Zhuge Liang lived in seclusion and studied. On the left side of Zhuge Thatched Cottage is Yeyun Nunnery, which is where Zhuge Liang meets his friends. Yeyun Nunnery is three rooms deep. On both sides of the door are carved bricks with the couplet "The clouds return to the desert and roll up, and the door faces the cold current from ancient times to the present". Its exterior is decorated with brick carvings of pines and cranes. According to legend, he and his four close friends Boling Cui Zhouping, Yingchuan Shi Guangyuan, Runan Meng Gongwei, Xu Shu and Xu Yuanzhi often gathered here to discuss poetry and books. On the right side of the thatched cottage is an ancient cypress pavilion. Today, Bai is no longer here, but Zhuge Ying's name is still remembered by people. Going further is the accompanying platform. People say that Zhuge Liang is really a god for his ability to pinch and calculate.

In fact, he is not a god. He is just a well-read hundreds of books and familiar with astronomy and geography. The reason why he borrowed the east wind in the Battle of Chibi was not because he could actually borrow it, but because he had already observed the sky and knew that the east wind was coming. After entering the temple and continuing to walk forward, we soon came to the Danning Reading Table, where "without indifference, one cannot clarify one's aspirations, and without tranquility, one cannot reach far." This is where Zhuge Liang's wealth of economic knowledge originated. The two strands of Confucianism and Taoism ran through Zhuge's life. After he came out of the mountain, Confucianism naturally became the mainstream. For the sake of the country of the Han Dynasty, he fought in the north and south, and spent his entire life as a soldier. But from what he told his younger brother before leaving the mountain, "I have been favored by Uncle Liu Huang three times and will not leave. You can work hard here and don't let the fields become barren. When I succeed, I will go into seclusion." It can be seen that Taoism Zhuge Liang's thought of transcendence has always influenced him. On the right side of Wuhou Temple is a newly built courtyard during the Tongzhi period of the Qing Dynasty. This was specially built to commemorate Liu Bei's three visits to the thatched cottage. Behind the courtyard is the Sangu Hall, which contains large statues of Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang. Another major attraction of Wuhou Temple is the orderly arrangement of more than 400 stone tablets, which ranks first among many Wuhou Temples across the country and is known as the "Wolong Forest of Steles".

Among them, the stele "Before and After" written by Yue Fei can be regarded as one of the "three unique" stele.

According to the stele and postscript, in the eighth year of Shaoxing in the Song Dynasty (1138), Yue Fei stayed in Wollongong at night when it rained. He was filled with emotions and wrote "Execution Model" in handwriting with tears to express his feelings. The so-called "three masterpieces" are: first, the outstanding writing, which has been famous for thousands of years; second, the outstanding calligraphy, Yue Fei's calligraphy can be said to be vigorous and steep, with dragons flying and snakes soaring, especially the spirit of loyalty and martial arts flowing through the pen; third, the carving is outstanding, just like handwriting . The combination of the three is a perfect match, complementing each other. The visit to Wuhou Temple passed unknowingly in half a day. Looking back at the distant temple gate, I felt as if I had watched the rise and fall of a dynasty in half a day. Although Zhuge Liang had unparalleled talents, it was a pity that he died of illness as soon as the three-legged power was formed, leaving only a trace of regret. Just as the poem says, "He made three parts of the country and became famous as the Eight Formations; the stone in the river will not turn, and he will swallow Wu with regret." However, Zhuge Liang dedicated his life to his whole life, and his full wisdom and loyalty made him a sage who will remain famous throughout the ages. name. For two thousand years, Zhuge Liang has become the embodiment of wisdom and is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. His existence is the unique pride of Chinese history and the Chinese nation!
