In the second year of Tang Suzong (AD 759), Du Fu, a poet who had been wandering since the Anshi Rebellion, came to Chengdu. The following spring, with reverence for Zhuge Wuhou in the Three Kingdoms period, he came to the northwest suburb of Chengdu and visited the Wuhou Temple built in the Jin Dynasty. The giant cypress in front of the temple is said to be "planted by Kong Ming", which has experienced vicissitudes and is vigorous and tall; The oriole among the green trees is complacent. In the face of the dilapidated ancestral temple, the poet remembered Zhuge Liang's valuable spirit and brilliant achievements of "devoting all his efforts to death", and could not help but be moved and burst into tears, so he wrote such a seven-law book that has been passed down through the ages:
Where is the temple of the famous prime minister in a pine forest near the Silk City?
The green grass in spring dyed the steps red, and every leaf in Huang Peng made a wonderful sound.
The third call aggravated his state affairs, and he gave his sincerity to two generations.
But before he conquered, he died, and since then the heroes have been crying on their coats.
