Zhuge Caoluting Historical Relics
During the three hundred years from the Jin Dynasty to the Sui Dynasty, Zhuge Liang often maintained the thatched cottage in Longzhong. Sheng Hongzhi's "Jingzhou Ji" records: "Qi Jianwu Middle School (AD 494-497) repaired a well by one person, and got a stone pillow, which was one foot two inches high and nine inches long, and was a king cat in Jin 'an". Well water dried up in Sui Dynasty.
Soon after the founding of the People's Republic of China in the Tang Dynasty, "Zhenguan Prosperity" appeared, and the economy and culture developed rapidly. The architectural scale of Zhuge's former residence in Longzhong has also developed greatly. In the third year of Tang Dynasty (AD 849), Long Zhongli was the public monument of Hou Zhuge, the loyal prime minister of Shu. Li Jingrang wrote an article and Sun Qiao wrote an inscription. The article has infinite admiration for Zhuge Liang's achievements and military talents. More than 500 years after Zhuge Liang's death, people in Han Liang are still praising his achievements, which makes people feel deeply. In Li Sannian (AD 900), the Tang court changed Zhuge Liang to King Wuling, and wrote an inscription with Dragon Dragon. At this time, Zhuge Liang's thatched cottage and Wuhou Temple were not comparable to those in the past.
In the Song Dynasty, Zhuge Cao Lu had a statue of Zhuge Wuhou. Su Dongpo, a great poet in the Northern Song Dynasty, went to Longzhong to pay tribute to the portrait of Wuhou and wrote poems praising Zhuge Liang as a "teacher of thousands of times". According to "Ji Sheng Yu Di", Sangumen was built in the Song Dynasty. In the Yuan Dynasty (A.D.1341-kloc-0/368), guangde temple Academy moved to Zhuge Caolu in Longzhong until it was called Longzhong Academy in the early Ming Dynasty. At the beginning of Chenghua in Ming Xianzong (A.D. 1465- 1470), the observation of Jingnan Road promoted Wu Shou to Longzhong to suppress "Jingxiang refugees" and repaired Zhuge Cao Lu. In the second year of Hongzhi (A.D. 1489), Zhu Jianshu attacked (Xiang). He is superstitious about Feng Shui. "Mulong is wonderful in Zhongshan, so he chose it as a graveyard." The Longzhong Mountain opposite the valley is a face mountain, and the mountain far to the east is a flag mountain, which serves as the background of the imperial clan mountain. Eliminate Zhuge Cao Lu, and build another Cao Lu in the left arm of Longzhong Mountain (now the location of Xiao Yong Villa). Moving the Academy to Xiangyang, closing mountains to drive people away, and building cemeteries made the original civil buildings and stone carvings disappear, which was the biggest catastrophe that Zhuge Liang encountered after leaving Longzhong/KLOC-0 for more than 200 years.
In the second year of the Ming Dynasty (AD 1507), Guanghua Wang Zhu, who was temporarily in charge of Xiangyang's government affairs, invited the Ming court to move Zhuge to the present Wuhou Temple 50 meters below, about 200 meters away from the original site (that is, the mausoleum) with the approval of the central government of the Ming Dynasty. In the 20th year of Wanli in Ming Dynasty (A.D. 1592), Li Zhen, assistant minister of Duchayuan, and his boss Yan Qinxuan saw Zhuge Caolu's insect infestation, which was already dilapidated and shaky, so they rebuilt Cao Lu in Dongshan Depression. In the 14th year of Chongzhen in Ming Dynasty (A.D. 164 1), Zhang once again raised the banner of righteousness in Gucheng, sent troops to Huguang and captured Xiangyang. 1in April 643, Li Zicheng, the king of aggression, changed Xiangyang to Xiang Jing, called Xinshun King, and established Xinshun peasant regime. The rebel army killed the vassal king and excavated the tomb of Zhu Jianshu, the king of geomantic omen, which created conditions for the restoration of Zhuge Cao Lu in Longzhong.
In the fifty-ninth year of Emperor Kangxi of Qing Dynasty (A.D. 1720), the observation of Xiangxiang made Zhao go to Longzhong to look for the former site of the thatched cottage. However, seeing that the grass clothes were messy and the tablet was lying in the water, he built a thatched cottage next to the tomb of King Xiangxiang as a memorial to the site of the thatched cottage. In the seventh year of Yongzheng in Qing Dynasty (A.D. 1729), Yayin, Xiangyang Prefecture, with the support of Zhao, rebuilt the thatched cottage, that is, 1984 was transformed into the Yeyun Temple in the depths of Wolong.
The thatched cottage built by Zhao was a single-story hexagonal pavilion, which was changed into a double-story hexagonal pavilion in the 16th year of Jiaqing in Qing Dynasty (A.D. 18 1 1) and used stone pillars. In the 9th year of Guangxu reign in Qing Dynasty (A.D. 1883), Cheng Wenbing, the magistrate of Hubei Province, went to Longzhong and saw that the ancestral temple was deserted, and there were few thatched cottages left, and all the places of interest recorded in local chronicles were submerged beyond recognition, so he built "Wolong Deep" in the so-called thatched cottage.
In the thirty-second year of Guangxu reign in Qing Dynasty (AD 1906), Liu Baolin, a soldier, also built a thatched cottage between Sangutang and Wuhou Temple. Although these relocated and newly built thatched cottages were all well-intentioned, they lost their authenticity and were not recognized by future generations. Therefore, until today, people only recognize the grass pavilion built by Zhao beside the tomb in the 59th year of Kangxi as a symbol of Zhuge. Others have either disappeared, disappeared naturally or changed their names. In the 21st year of the Republic of China (A.D. 1932), Chiang Kai-shek, Chairman of the Military Commission of the Republic of China, went to Longzhong and saw Zhuge Caolu in disrepair, with the same landscape and different scenery. He repaired Cao Luting and changed it into a brick wall tile pavilion.
The story of three visits to Mao Lu has been passed down through the ages. Now Zhuge Liang's thatched cottage is not a thatched cottage, but a small wooden pavilion. According to the staff of the scenic spot, Zhuge Liang has always been highly respected, and Zhuge Liang Caotang has also received special care and maintenance. In the Ming dynasty, a prince named Zhu Jianshu came here to worship Zhuge Liang, took a fancy to the thatched cottage, a treasure trove of geomantic omen, and was selfish from then on. He wants to use it as his own grave to bless future generations. So he tore down the thatched cottage and built a grave. The following year, the monarch who occupied the hut died. Later, Li Zicheng, the conquering king, attacked Xiangyang City and dug Zhu Jianshu's tomb. The prince finally lost his bones. Chen Xinjian said that the ancients had the custom of not demolishing the yin house and building the yang house, so Zhuge Liang's thatched cottage was not rebuilt. 1932, Chiang Kai-shek lived in Gulong for a week and allocated 5,000 yuan to repair the pavilion.
After the founding of New China, Hubei Provincial People's Government, Xiangyang District People's Government and Xiangyang Municipal People's Government maintained the thatched cottage several times in 1954, 1957, 1964 and 1979 respectively. Cao Lu Pavilion is now a two-story hexagonal pavilion with a wooden ladder leading to the second floor. The front door is engraved with the words "Cao Lu Ruins", and the stone pillars on both sides of the door are engraved with couplets of "Fan Yaoding March, Shi Yun Eight Arrays", which spoke highly of Zhuge Liang's political and military talents.
