Where can I find Zhuge Liang ancestral temple in Wuhou? In the dense cypress forest on the outskirts of Chengdu.
The green grass is reflected on the steps, showing the spring scenery, and the orioles on the trees sing through the branches.
It is believed that the ancestors of the world visited the cottage three times, assisted the founding of the two dynasties, and worked faithfully.
It's a pity that Wei died in the army before he started attacking Wei, which often made heroes of all ages burst into tears!

Distinguish and appreciate
This seven-melody book expresses the poet's reverence for Zhuge Liang's wisdom and virtue and his unfinished mood. The whole collection of poems combines emotion, scenery and discussion, which not only comments on history, but also contains reality. It is a swan song in the poems praising Zhuge Liang in past dynasties.
In classical poetry, questions and answers are often used to open sentences, highlighting the ups and downs of feelings. So is the first couplet of this poem. "Where is the famous prime minister's temple? In a pine forest near the Silk City. " Questions and answers have formed a strong emotional atmosphere from the beginning, covering the whole article. The last sentence, "Prime Minister's Ancestral Temple", hit the nail on the head, with a cordial and respectful meaning. "Where to find", ask without doubt, strengthen language potential, not where to find. In history, Zhuge Liang was deeply loved by the people, especially in Chengdu, Sichuan, and the temples dedicated to him were easy to find. The beauty of the word "Xun" lies in its portrayal of the poet's persistent pursuit of sages and his long-term thinking of pious creation. The next sentence, "In a deep pine forest near Silk City", points out that the poet paid tribute to Wuhou Temple on the outskirts of Chengdu. The cypress trees here are shaded, tall and dense, showing a quiet and solemn atmosphere. Cypress has a long life, never withers all year round, is tall and straight, has symbolic significance, and is often used as an ornamental tree in temples. The author grasps this scene of Wuhou Temple, showing the majestic, lush, vigorous and simple image characteristics of cypress, reminding people of Zhuge Liang's spirit and can't help but respect it. Next, what is displayed in front of readers is wormwood spring grass, which spreads under the stone steps and reflects a piece of green; Only orioles walk through the leaves of the forest and make clear calls.
The second pair of couplets, "Spring grass dyes the steps, birds sing under the leaves", is bright in color, clear in rhyme, quiet and natural, which makes the spring scenery of Wuhou Temple infinitely beautiful. However, the spring of nature has come, but the hope of rejuvenating the motherland is very slim. Thought of here, the poet inevitably has a sad feeling, so it is said that the intertextuality of "spring scenery" and "empty but good sound", "self" and "emptiness" describes a quiet and motionless environment. The poet infiltrated his subjective feelings into the objective scenery, traded in the scenery, and conveyed his inner sadness from the description of the scenery, which reflected the patriotic spirit of the poet concerned about the country and the people. Through the refraction of this patriotic thought, the image of Zhuge Liang in the poet's eyes is more brilliant.
"The third call made him shoulder the national affairs, and he gave his heart to two generations." The third part is full of colors and highly summarizes Zhuge Liang's life. Before the last sentence was written, Liu Bei visited the Caotang, and Zhuge Liang took countermeasures, pointing out that Zhuge Liang could foresee the political situation in Wei Shuwu at that time and formulated a set of policies for Liu Bei's reunification of the country. It can be seen that Liu Bei is a great talent for saving the world. The latter sentence is about mountains. Zhuge Liang helped Liu Bei create Shu Han, helped Liu Chan and praised his contribution to the country. In two sentences and fourteen words, people have been brought to the war-torn Three Kingdoms era, and in a broad historical background, they have portrayed the image of a saint who is loyal to the monarch and patriotic and helps the world. Memories of today. At this time, the Anshi Rebellion has not been settled, the country is divided and the people are displaced, which makes the poet worried. He longed for loyal subjects and sages to assist the country, rectify Gankun and restore the peaceful reunification of the country. It is this concern for the country that condenses into the poet's admiration for Zhuge Liang; In this historical figure, the poet pinned his beautiful vision for the destiny of the country.
The last couple of the poem "died before they could conquer, and the heroes cried on their coats", lamenting the historical misfortune of Zhuge Liang's failure in the army when he died of illness. The tragic ending of Zhuge Liang's dying ambition is undoubtedly a hymn of life. He practiced the oath of "do my best and die before you die" with actions, which further sublimated the spiritual realm of this ancient outstanding politician and produced the power to make people work hard.
This poem is divided into two parts. The first four sentences pay tribute to the ancestral temple of the Prime Minister, which reflects the reality from the description of the scenery and reveals the poet's concern for the country and the people; The last four sentences praise the talent of the Prime Minister and cherish the memory of the sages from historical recollection, which contain many expectations and longings for the destiny of the motherland. The whole poem has profound implications and profound sustenance, resulting in a deep and sad artistic conception. In a word, this seven laws discourse is very simple, but it has a large capacity and a high degree of generalization. In just 56 words, it tells the story of Zhuge Liang's life and shows readers an immortal Zhuge Liang. When patriots and ordinary readers of later generations recited this poem, they felt reverence for Zhuge Liang. Especially when I read the sentence "But before he conquered, he was dead, and the heroes cried on their coats", I couldn't help crying.
In artistic expression, questions are answered by themselves, facts are sketched, scenes are blended, narration and discussion are combined, the structure is seamless, the levels are agitated, and there is a language charm of refining words and cutting sentences and harmonious tone, which makes people sigh and have endless aftertaste. Du Fu's poems are called "gloomy and frustrated", and the book is a typical representative.
By visiting historical sites, this poem expresses the praise of Zhuge Liang's outstanding talent and loyalty to the country, and regrets that he died before he made a good start.
