The phrase "dedicate one's work to one's best and then die" was originally used to describe Zhuge Liang. However, many people now use this sentence to describe some loyal people. Of course, Zhuge Liang was a very famous military strategist and statesman in ancient China. At that time, people called Zhuge Liang a man of miraculous calculations. However, when mentioning Zhuge Liang, I believe everyone will think of Liu Bowen. It is said that Liu Bowen stole Zhuge Liang's tomb at that time. In fact, I am still very curious, why did Zhuge Liang do this? What is the purpose of stealing Zhuge Liang's tomb? Let’s take a look at the details!
There are a few poems often circulated among the people:
1. Liu Bowen wrote: The Three Kingdoms were established by Zhuge Liang and unified the world by Liu Bowen. It means that I, Bowen, am a hundred times stronger than you, Zhuge Liang.
No matter how powerful you Zhuge Liang is, you can only control three parts of the world, but I, Liu Bowen, can rule the world. Therefore, he wants to dig Zhuge Liang's grave and prove that he is better than Zhuge Liang.
2. Liu Bowen dug up Zhuge Liang’s grave, and then saw words on the stone tablet. It said: I can count the descendants of Bowen, but you can count who of the descendants? This poem was written by Zhuge Liang. .
It shows that Zhuge Liang is far superior to Liu Bowen a hundred times. Because Liu Bowen really couldn't predict what kind of big shot he would be a few hundred years after his death. But Zhuge Liang knew that a smart man named Liu Bowen would appear in a thousand years.
During the Three Kingdoms period, Zhuge Liang was knowledgeable about astronomy and geography, how to control the clouds and clear skies, and how to call for wind and rain. He had a thorough knowledge of history, was well-versed in planning, and had good judgments. Assist Liu Bei to conquer the world, strategize and win every battle; govern the Shuhan Kingdom in Tianfu, devote himself to death, and die.
Zhuge Liang was a man of extraordinary talent, well-known for his outstanding achievements, and was regarded as a role model. People of all ages have respected it, and heroes have been impressed by it.
At the end of the Yuan Dynasty, another wise star appeared in China. This person's surname is Liu and his given name is Bowen. He is good at the Three Tao and Six Strategies. He is good at foresight and foresight. He can control the wind and rain and predict events like a god.
Assisted Zhu Yuanzhang in colluding with the people to kill the Tatars on August 15th, raised troops to destroy the Yuan Dynasty and seize Jinling, and became a famous founding hero of the Ming Dynasty. At that time, Liu Bowen was said to be the reincarnation of Zhuge Liang, and Kong Ming was reincarnated again.
Liu Bowen believed that he was highly talented and highly respected, and often made gossips and comments about Zhuge Liang. His inner dissatisfaction was clearly revealed both in his words and in his words.
"Kong Ming's knowledge is profound, and I am only one cent short of it; Kong Ming's virtue and ability are extraordinary, and I am only one cent short of it; Kong Ming's wisdom is extraordinary, and my comparison is only one cent less; Kong Ming's foresight After the test, I have no idea, but I am definitely not inferior to him. According to the article, before his death, Zhuge Liang had planned who would come to pay homage and who would come to dig the tomb after his death, and recorded it in a book and engrave it on a stele. All are true. I am determined to go to the cemetery to pay my respects in person. If Kong Ming has any expectations, I will kneel down and kowtow a thousand times. If Kong Ming has no expectations, he will laugh at him as being three feet shorter than me."
Liu Bowen has no sages. , made disrespectful remarks, everyone was shocked and did not dare to say anything.
One day, Liu Bowen led several of his entourages to pay homage to Kongming's cemetery in person on an eight-carriage sedan. Go through the tall archway. Just went up the flower stone steps. A giant stele stands in front of us. On it are five large seal characters written by a Wolongshan native: "No one will come when I arrive."
Liu Bowen cupped his fists and gave a deep salute, raised his eyes and glanced up and down, and couldn't help laughing. "Wolong Mountain Man" is a good calligrapher, with vigorous and powerful strokes and majestic characters, which is no less impressive than that of Xizhi and Zhenqing.
It’s just that the foreknowledge is bad, and it’s under my feet. I don't want the dignified Prime Minister of Shu to have only front eyes and no back beads, trying to achieve a false and distorted reputation by knowing five hundred years in advance and a thousand years in the future. Bowen dared to laugh at you for being three feet shorter than me. I didn't expect you to come and I will come too! The prophecy on the monument is wrong and deceptive. It is better to tear it down and smash it to avoid being an eyesore and confusing the public. "
As soon as Liu Bowen finished speaking, his entourage took two steps forward. He raised the iron stone guy and broke the monument into three pieces. He was very arrogant. Seeing the monument fall to pieces, Liu Bowen couldn't help but sneer.
"Zhuge Liang has always been called the most capable man in the world, but I have personally verified that his reputation is not worthy of the truth. From now on, who else can replace Bowen as the most capable person in the world?"
Liu Bowen cut his hands behind his back, got carried away with himself, shouted to left and right, and walked back with a swagger. In less than twenty steps, a A huge monument with a round head blocks the way. The stone is pink and purple in color, with a rough surface covered with moss marks and faint writing.
I was ordered to wipe off the dust and dirt, and carefully identify each stroke. I was suddenly startled. I felt flustered and out of my mind. I kept shouting, "Sin, sin! The student was so arrogant that he didn't know the heights of the sky. He destroyed the monument and broke it into pieces." Jie is guilty of humiliating his master and deserves to die."
It turns out that the inscription on the stele was written by Kong Ming himself in regular script with the words "Only Bowen arrived." Bowen's face was full of shame and embarrassment. He quickly bowed respectfully, knelt on his knees, and kowtowed a thousand times sincerely. After the ceremony, my body was as heavy as a mountain, my knees were as soft as mud, and I couldn't stand up no matter how hard I tried.
When he was in trouble, he suddenly saw a line of small words engraved on the bottom of the round-headed stele: "Bowen put on his helmet and saluted, took off his helmet and stood up." Bowen seemed to feel that Kong Ming was in front of him, and suddenly felt his scalp tightening. , with his hair standing straight up, he hurriedly took off his golden helmet, threw himself to the ground, bowed to him repeatedly, and then stood up. Unconsciously, I broke out in cold sweat and soaked my underwear.
When Liu Bowen saw the first tube of monument, he was arrogant and indifferent. When I saw the second tube monument, I was frightened and timid, dumbfounded. The majestic and majestic figure was suddenly killed without a trace, and I was convinced.
After returning from the cemetery, he deliberately and respectfully went to the Kongming Temple to burn incense and bow down to worship his master. I saw a bowl of cold water on the table, and the fragrance hit my nose. Under the bed is a pair of boots with straight sides and fine needle points.
Out of curiosity, I picked up the water glass and drank it in one gulp, then put on my boots and walked three times in a row. Laughter: "Drink my master's water with integrity and not be greedy; wear my master's boots and the road will be straight and straight." When I got out of the door, I looked up and saw two lines of gold characters written by Zhuge Liang on the large screen wall in front of me: "Wear my boots and drink." When I walk to the sand dunes, I will encounter disaster."
Bowen didn't look at it. He knew that this trip was not good. He was so frightened that his ears were ringing, his eyes were blurry, his face turned pale with panic, and his stomach was filled with fear. Li secretly called thatch.
Liu Bowen Bowen has always been ambitious and courageous. He can only win but not lose in battles in his life, and he can only do good things but not bad things. Today, when Kong Ming was being taught in front of him, he felt that he was three feet inferior and timid. Seeing that Zhuge Liang had foreseen that he would be in trouble, he expected that the situation would be unpredictable and disaster would be imminent.
Looking back, I stared at the gold characters on the wall for a while, and sighed leisurely: "Everyone has his own aspirations in life, everyone has his own way of serving the country, everyone has his own experience of wind and rain, and everyone has his own end of life. You deserve to die, you can't live, you deserve to die. You will not die alive." Then he bowed deeply to the statue of Kong Ming, then slowly walked out of the gate and got into the sedan chair.
After walking through the path and heading south onto the main road, I felt hesitant and suddenly thought again. He hurriedly asked: "How far is it from here to Shaqiu Town?" The bearer replied: "It's about eighty miles at least."
Bowen frowned, lifted the sedan curtain and stuck his head out. He waved his hand and said: "Turn around and go diagonally southeast for fifty miles, then southwest for fifty miles, making a big circle and bypassing Sand Dune Town." The bearer obeyed the order and was silent all the way.
Bowen and his party walked dozens of miles more, far away from Sand Dune Town, and embarked on the post road back to Kyoto. While crossing a sandy river bed that had dried up for a long time, I encountered two groups of urchins from the east and west, each occupying a sand dune and playing and fighting.
On one side of the east sand dune is the Bagua formation, and on one side of the west sand dune is the long snake formation. They throw rocks and gravel at each other, sticks rise and fall, both attacking and defending. Shouting to kill. "East Sand Dune wins! West Sand Dune loses!" Bowen was so surprised that he broke into a cold sweat when he heard the word sand dune. He suddenly felt that the world was spinning and he was dizzy.
Immediately stopped his horse and sedan chair, and ordered around him: "My master Zhuge Kongming is a master of calculations in the sky and in the earth, and his divine words are astonishing. I can hide through the Shaqiu Town, but I cannot escape the Shaqiu River. I understand clearly that I will die. I will die without any regrets, and I would like to leave some words to warn future generations."
The follower took out his pen and ink, and Bowen wrote: "The mountains are high and have a top, but the sky is big but boundless; when you sit in a well, you can see the sky is small, but when you climb high, you can see the sky is vast. . If you plan to win and worry about defeat, you will never be defeated; if you know your mistakes and correct them, you will always be good; if you know your mistakes and correct them, you will never be ashamed. It will lead to death. It is too late to wake up now and regret it. I hope everyone will pass on my message and warn future generations." Bowen wrote this and put down his pen, vomiting blood and getting angry. Absolutely dead. The people covered their faces and cried loudly. He quickly put on white clothes and mourning, bought a coffin for burial, rented a car overnight and hired people to carry the coffin. Weeping and lamenting all the way: "Your Excellency is both civilized and military, possesses both political integrity and talent, and is a generation of heroes.
Following Taizu in the southern and northern wars, he went through life and death, laid the foundation for the Ming Dynasty, and suffered hardships. Everyone in the country knows his merits and deeds. , Heaven and earth all know. Unfortunately, I have a strong and arrogant nature and cannot tolerate others. I ended up on the sand dune and river beach and fell into this misfortune.
The master realized the mistakes of his life before he died, and left the golden and stone mantras to instruct future generations. It was really an act of a wise man, which is awe-inspiring and will be missed for thousands of years. ”
Bowen’s coffin returned to Beijing, held a grand memorial ceremony, and was buried in his hometown. He printed a message worth a thousand dollars and spread it widely in the capital and countryside. Everyone in the country has a copy of the book, and everyone can read it, and women can carry their children on their backs. It has been passed down from generation to generation.
The above is recorded in unofficial history.
The official history records:
Zhu Yuanzhang gave poison after he became emperor. Liu Bowen was poisoned. Zhu Yuanzhang sent Prime Minister Hu Weiyong to send poison to Liu Bowen's hometown and asked Liu Bowen to commit suicide.
