Zhuge Liang (181-234 AD), Han nationality, named Kongming, also known as Wolong layman. Born in Yinan County, Shandong Province, he was an outstanding prime minister of the Shu Han Dynasty during the Three Kingdoms period in China, as well as a statesman, military strategist, strategist, essayist, and diplomat. Historical records record that he was eight feet tall, which is about 1.84 meters today. Zhuge Liang's birthday: Xinyou, Bingshen, Guichou, Dingsi.
Zhuge Liang was born in Yangdu County, Langye County (now Yinan, Shandong Province) in the fourth year of Emperor Guanghe of the Han Dynasty (181 AD). County) an official's home. The Zhuge family is a prominent family in Langxie, and their ancestor Zhuge Feng once served as Sili Xiaowei (chief of the garrison of the capital) during the reign of Emperor Yuan of the Western Han Dynasty. Zhuge Liang's father, Zhuge Gui, whose courtesy name was Jungong, served as the magistrate of Taishan County in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. Zhuge Liang's mother Zhang died of illness when he was 3 years old, and his father died when he was 8 years old (one theory is that he lost his mother when he was 9 years old, and his father when he was 12 years old). Together with his sister and younger brother Zhuge Jun, he followed his uncle Zhuge Xuan, who was appointed by Yuan Shu as the prefect of Yuzhang, to Yuzhang. . The Eastern Han Dynasty court sent Zhu Hao to replace Zhuge Xuan, so Zhuge Xuan went to join his old friend Liu Biao, the pastor of Jingzhou.
In the second year of Jian'an (197 AD), Zhuge Xuan died of illness. Zhuge Liang and his siblings lost their livelihood, so they moved to Nanyang. The 17-year-old Zhuge Liang, his friend Xu Shu and others studied under Mr. Shui Jing, Sima Hui. He saw that Liu Biao was incompetent and not the master of the world, so he settled in Longzhong Mountain, twenty miles west of Xiangyang City, and lived in seclusion until the time came. This happened in 197 AD. Zhuge Liang has lived in seclusion in Longzhong for ten years. He has made many friends with famous people in the south of the Yangtze River. He "always compares himself to Guan Zhong and Le Yi". He loves to sing "Liang Fu Yin" and has friends with Pang Degong, Pang Tong, Sima Hui, Huang Chengyan, Shi Guangyuan and Cui Zhouping. , Xu Shu and other celebrities. His intelligence is recognized by everyone and he has the ambition to bring order to the world. He paid close attention to the development of the current situation, so he knew the world situation well. Known as "Wolong". Marry Huang Chengyan's daughter as his wife.
In the twelfth year of Jian'an (AD 207), when Zhuge Liang was 27 years old, Liu Bei visited the thatched cottage three times, met with Zhuge Liang, and asked about the plan to unify the world. Zhuge Liang analyzed the situation at the time incisively and proposed to capture Jing and Yi first. As a base, he reformed politics internally, united with Sun Quan externally, pacified the Yi and Yue in the south, and reconciled with the Rong in the west. Waiting for the opportunity, he sent troops from both directions to the north to unify the country's strategic thinking. This conversation is the famous "Longzhong Dui". After listening to Zhuge Liang's incisive and thorough analysis, Liu Bei's thoughts suddenly became enlightened. He felt that Zhuge Liang's talent was rare, so he sincerely asked Zhuge Liang to come out and help him complete the great cause of reviving the Han Dynasty. Zhuge Liang then went out to assist Liu Bei and joined forces with Sun Yat-sen to fight against Cao Cao. Cao's army was defeated in the Battle of Chibi. The three kingdoms formed a tripartite force and captured Jingzhou. In the 16th year of Jian'an, Yizhou was captured. Then he defeated Cao Jun and captured Hanzhong. In the twenty-sixth year, Liu Bei established the Shu Han regime in Chengdu. Zhuge Liang was appointed prime minister, but he did not open a government to preside over the government.
In the spring of the third year of Zhangwu (AD 223), Liu Bei was critically ill in Yong'an. He called Zhuge Liang to pay attention to the funeral and said: "Your talent is ten times that of Cao Pi, and you will be able to stabilize the country and achieve great things. If your heir can do it, If he is not talented, you can take care of him yourself." Zhuge Liang cried hurriedly: "I will do my best to help each other and be loyal to the chastity until death!" The emperor came to the throne.
Liu Chan, the later lord of the Shu Han Dynasty, succeeded to the throne, and Zhuge Liang was named the Marquis of Wuxiang and led the pastoral care of Yizhou. The Prime Minister's Office was established to handle daily affairs. At that time, all military, political, and financial matters in the country were decided by Zhuge Liang, with strict rewards and punishments. Externally, it formed an alliance with Soochow, and internally, it improved relations with all ethnic groups in the southwest, implemented farming, and strengthened war preparations. In the fifth year of Jianxing (AD 227), Liu Chan led his army to Hanzhong and made six northern expeditions to the Central Plains. Most of them were spent on food but without success. In the twelfth year, he finally became ill due to overwork and died of illness. In the original army of Wuzhang, he entrusted Jiang Wei with his funeral affairs.
Zhuge Liang was an orthodox thinker who upheld feudal principles and advocated Confucian loyalty and morality. However, Zhuge Liang did not adhere to Confucian dogma. He respected the king but did not resist the barbarians, and marched into the south. In the Three Kingdoms, Zhuge Liang implemented the best national policy in the Three Kingdoms, and became a model for later generations with his spirit of "devoting his life and dying".
China has portrayed Zhuge Liang as a leader for thousands of years. The embodiment of wisdom, Zhuge Liang's legendary story has been passed down to the world. He was skilled in strategy, resourceful, and good at thinking. He once innovated the "Liannu", which can fire 10 arrows continuously; he also made the "Wooden Ox and Flowing Horse" to facilitate military transportation in the mountains. The art of war, the "Eight Formation Diagram", and the invention of the "Kongming Lantern"
Zhuge Liang's uncle Zhuge Xuan was a famous scholar at the time. Zhuge Liang's brother Zhuge Jin served as an official in Wu Sunquan, serving as the general and the governor of Zuo, and led the shepherd of Yuzhou. Liang's younger brother, Zhuge Dan, served in the Wei Dynasty as a official, and later moved to Yangzhou as governor, Zhendong general, and Sikong. The three brothers were both famous, each in his own country. At that time, it was thought that "Sichuan has its dragon, and Wu has its dragon." Tiger, Wei got his dog'" ("Shishuo Xinyu·Pin Zao" notes that the dog is a "dog of merit". Although it is not as good as a dragon or a tiger, it is still a very meritorious person, so it has a great reputation.) .

The Five Northern Expeditions
In March of the fifth year of Jianxing (AD 227), Zhuge Liang submitted a "Departure Order" to his later master and led his army to Hanzhong to prepare for the Northern Expedition. He first trained in Hanzhong for about a year, and then attacked the north. The three counties of Wei Nan'an (governing Longxi, Gansu), Tianshui, and Anding (governing Jichuan, Gansu) immediately surrendered to Shu. Emperor Wei Ming personally went to Chang'an to supervise the battle, and used Cao Zhen to supervise the armies in Guanyou, adopting a defense-oriented strategy. The Shu army first threatened to capture the county from Xiegu Road, and asked Zhao Yun and Deng Zhi to lead an army to occupy Jigu (now northwest of Baocheng, Shaanxi Province) as a suspected army. Zhuge Liang led the main force to attack Qishan in the west. Joining the army, Ma Su led an army as the vanguard and stationed himself at the street pavilion. Ma Su's command was improper and he was defeated by the Wei army and lost the street pavilion. The Shu army lost its stronghold to advance and had to retreat to Hanzhong (official history does not mention the "empty city strategy" to retreat Sima Yi's army). Zhuge Liang beheaded Ma Di with tears in his eyes, and wrote a letter demoting himself to the third rank and assuming the position of prime minister as the right general.
In the winter of the sixth year of Jianxing (AD 228), the Wei army attacked Wu in three directions, leaving Guanzhong empty. Zhuge Liang once again led his army to the northern expedition. The Shu army left Dashan Pass this time and besieged Chencang for more than twenty days before retreating after running out of food.
In the seventh year of Jianxing (229 AD), Zhuge Liang led his army to the Northern Expedition for the third time. The Shu army headed west, taking the two counties of Wei Wudu and Yinping and returned. Zhuge Liang was reinstated as prime minister.
In the ninth year of Jianxing (AD 231), Zhuge Liang attacked Wei for the fourth time, using wooden oxen to transport grain and surrounding Qishan Mountain. Sima Yi was the commander in chief and oversaw the resistance. Zhuge Liang led the main force to fight against Sima Yi. Sima Yi knew that the Shu army had come from afar and had limited food and logistics, so he took the risk and refused to go to war. Zhuge Liang ordered Li Yan to be responsible for the logistics supply in Hanzhong. Li Yan failed to raise food and grass in time, so he wrote to Zhuge Liang saying that the emperor ordered the troops to withdraw. After Zhuge Liang retreated, he deceived the court and said that the retreat was to lure the enemy. When Zhuge Liang came back, he pretended to be surprised and asked: "The army rations are enough, why did you suddenly retreat?" So, Zhuge Liang took out Li Yan's letter as evidence when he went to court, and signed it with many soldiers to impeach Li Yan. , exempted him from being a commoner and exiled him to Zitong.
In February of the twelfth year of Jianxing (AD 234), Zhuge Liang launched his fifth Northern Expedition. He led his army out of Xiegu and occupied Wuzhangyuan (forty miles south of today's Qishan County, Shaanxi Province). This time we sent troops, we had made an appointment with Soochow to attack Wei at the same time. However, Dongwu delayed sending troops. It was not until May that Sun Quan sent Lu Xun and Zhuge Jin to lead troops to station in Jiangxia and Miokou (now Hanpu, Hubei) to attack Xiangyang. Sun Quan himself led a large army to surround Hefei Xincheng. In this regard, Emperor Wei Ming's strategy was to defeat Soochow first.
He personally led the navy to march eastward, and asked Sima Yi, who was guarding the west, to hold on without fighting, and let the Shu army retreat after running out of food. But when Sun Quan learned of the Wei Lord's intentions, he believed that his side had become the main battlefield and suffered a loss, so he ordered his troops to withdraw across the board. On the Western Front. In view of past lessons, Zhuge Liang divided his troops into fields and planned to stay there for a long time. In August of this year, Zhuge Liang suddenly fell ill and died on the front line at the age of fifty-four. The Shu army withdrew across the board. Zhuge Liang left a will during his lifetime: "To be buried in Dingjun Mountain in Hanzhong, just dig a grave in the hillside. The grave can hold the coffin. Wear ordinary clothes and do not carry any burial utensils."

Compiled by later generations, the "Collected Works of Marquis Zhuge Zhongwu" compiled by Zhang Shu of the Qing Dynasty is relatively complete.
Zhuge Liang's famous major works include: "The Master Before", "The Master After" (or the Yunhou Chapter was a forgery written by a descendant in Zhuge's name, and the authenticity is doubtful), and "The Book of Commandments to Sons".
"Please announce the posthumous edict of Emperor Daxing"
Emperor Fuwei Daxing has cultivated virtues and cultivated virtues. When the sun is about to rise and suddenly rise, my concubines will cry out, as if they were mourning their concubines. After taking into account the imperial edict, the affairs were for Emperor Taizong, and the whole family was affected by the loss and the loss; all the buildings mourned, and took off their clothes after three days, and after the funeral, it was the same as etiquette; the prefects, prime ministers, captains, and county magistrates of their prefectures and counties, took off their clothes after three days. Chen Liang personally received the edict and feared the gods, so he did not dare to violate it. Please declare it and implement it. ○ "Three Kingdoms" Volume 32 "Shu Shu Biography of the First Lord".
"Southern Expedition Table"
At the beginning, it was said that Gaoding lost his cave and gained his wife. At the end of his life, he had to return to his home to survive. However, Miao Man had a different intention, so he even killed people as allies, and gathered more than 2,000 of his kind, hoping to fight to the death. ○ "Beitang Shuchao" Volume 158.
"Execution Model"
The minister made it clear: The late emperor had not yet started his business, but the middle road collapsed. Today, Yizhou is weak and exhausted, and this is the time when our survival is in danger. However, the ministers of the bodyguard are tireless at home, and the loyal people forget about themselves outside. This is because they want to repay the special experience of the late emperor to His Majesty. It is sincerely appropriate to open Zhang Shengting to honor the legacy of the late emperor and to magnify the spirit of the people with lofty ideals. It is not appropriate to belittle oneself, to use metaphors that are unjust, and to block the road of loyalty and admonishment.
The palace and the mansion are all integrated into one body. There should be no similarities or differences between them. If there are those who commit crimes and are loyal and good, they should be punished and rewarded by a judge, so as to show that your majesty can govern the country in an orderly manner. It is not suitable to be partial and to impose different laws both internally and externally.
Shizhong, Shilang Guo Youzhi, Fei Yi, Dong Yun, etc., are all good and solid, with loyal and pure aspirations. Therefore, the late emperor simply removed them and left them to Your Majesty. If you are foolish and think that all matters in the palace are no matter how big or small, if you consult them carefully and then implement them, you will definitely be able to make up for the deficiencies and benefit a lot.
The general Xiang Chong was of good character and well-versed in military affairs. He tried to use it in the past. The late emperor called him Neng, and he was elected as the governor by public opinion. If you are foolish and think that all things in the camp are no matter how big or small, if you take them into consideration, you will be able to make the formation harmonious and the good and the bad will be settled.
To be close to virtuous ministers and to be far away from villains is why the early Han Dynasty prospered; to be close to virtuous ministers and to be distant to virtuous ministers is why the Han Dynasty has declined since then. When the late emperor was still alive, whenever he discussed this matter with his ministers, he would always sigh and hate Huan and Lingye. The ministers, ministers, chief historians, and soldiers who have joined the army are all ministers who have learned about the death of Zhenliang. I hope that your majesty will believe in it, and the Han Dynasty will be prosperous. You can count on it in the coming days.
I am a commoner, plowing the land in Nanyang, trying to survive in troubled times, and not seeking to gain knowledge and reach the princes. The late emperor did not think that his ministers were despicable, and he was in vain. He looked at his ministers three times in the thatched cottage, and his counselors were grateful for the affairs of the world, so they allowed the late emperor to drive away. Later, when the army was overthrown, he was appointed to the position when the army was defeated, and he was ordered to be in danger. He has been in the past twenty-one years.
The late emperor was cautious in informing his ministers, so he sent his ministers important information when he was about to die. Since receiving the order, I have been worried day and night, fearing that the entrustment would not be effective and would harm the late emperor's wisdom, so I crossed Lu in the fifth month and went deep into the barren area. Now that the south has been secured and the armored troops are sufficient, we should lead the three armies with rewards and secure the central plains in the north. We will wipe out the common people and the dull people, drive out the traitors, revive the Han Dynasty, and return to the old capital. (North) [This] is why I reported to the late emperor and was loyal. Your Majesty's duty. As for considering profits and losses, and giving honest advice, then you, yi, and yun are left to their own devices.
May your Majesty ask your ministers to bring the thieves back to life; if they fail, you will be punished for their crimes, so as to appeal to the spirit of the late emperor. If there are no words to promote virtue, then blame You Zhi, Yi, Yun, etc. for their arrogance to show their fault. Your Majesty, it is also advisable for you to seek your own advice, consult with others on good deeds, and listen to elegant words. I deeply follow the late emperor's edict, and I am deeply grateful for the kindness.
Stay away now. I am in tears and don’t know what to say.
"The Book of Commandments"
The conduct of a gentleman is to cultivate one's character through tranquility, and to cultivate one's virtue through frugality. Without indifference, there is no clear ambition; without tranquility, there is no far-reaching goal. Learning requires tranquility, and talent requires learning. Without learning, there is no way to expand talents, and without ambition, there is no way to achieve learning. If you are impatient and slow, you will not be able to stimulate your essence, and if you are dangerous and impetuous, you will not be able to cure your nature. The years go by with the times, the thoughts go with the sun, and they become withered and withered. Many people do not take on the world, and they stay in the poor house with sadness. How will they be able to get back to you!
Historical records
For details, see "Three Kingdoms". Volume 35? "Book of Shu: Biography of Zhuge Liang". Written by Chen Shou of Jin Dynasty.
Comments: Zhuge Liang is the prime minister of the country. He cares for the people, shows rituals, appoints officials, obeys the authority, is open-minded and sincere, and delivers justice. Those who are loyal and beneficial will be rewarded even if they are enemies, and those who violate the law and are negligent will be loved. Punishment is inevitable. Those who plead guilty and lose love will be released even if they are serious; those who use rhetoric and clever words will be killed even if they are light; good deeds will not be rewarded, and evil deeds will not be devalued; common things should be refined, physical principles should be followed, names should be followed and responsibilities should be fulfilled, hypocrisy Disdainful; finally in the territory of the country, fearful but loving, although the punishment and administration are severe but not resentful, because of their calm intentions and clear warnings. It can be said that he is a talented person who knows how to govern, and Guan and Xiao are inferior to each other.
However, he has been trying to mobilize the masses for many years without success, so he must adapt to the general strategy, which is not his strength!
Historical evaluation
Chen Shou: ① Zhuge Liang is the prime minister of the country, who cares for the people, shows rituals, appoints officials, obeys the authority, is sincere, and delivers justice; he is loyal and benefits the time. Those who commit crimes and neglect will be punished, even if they are close; those who admit guilt and lose love will be released, even if they are serious; those who use rhetoric and clever rhetoric will be killed, even if they are light; good deeds will not be rewarded, and evil will not be devalued. The essence of physics is to follow the name and be responsible, and to despise hypocrisy; in the end, within the territory of the country, one is fearful but loves it, and although the punishment and administration are severe, there is no resentment, because the intention is calm and the admonishment is clear. It can be said that he is a talented person who knows how to govern, and Guan and Xiao are inferior to each other. However, he has been trying to mobilize the masses for many years without success, so he must adapt to the general strategy, which is not his strength! ② When he is about to die, his heir will be young and weak, and he will be dedicated to everything, no matter how big or small. Therefore, we connected with Soochow outside and pacified Nanyue inside. We implemented laws and regulations, organized the military and brigades, and used industrial and mechanical skills to the utmost. We were strict in science and education. We must believe in rewards and punishments. No evil will be punished and no good will be shown. As for officials, they will not tolerate rape. Be self-reliant, do not pick up lost things, the strong does not invade the weak, and the demeanor is awe-inspiring. ③Li Shu thought about it and thought it was true. To this day, the people of Liang and Yi still hear the words in their ears from those who have consulted Liang. Although Gantang sings about Zhao Gong and Zheng people sing about Zichan, they are incomparable. Mencius once said: "If you use the way of leisure to make people work, you will not complain even if you work; if you use the way of life to kill people, you will not be angry even if you die." Believe it! Commentators may blame Liang for not being brilliant in his writing, but being too thoughtful and thoughtful about Ding Ning. I foolishly thought that Jiu Yao was a great virtuous person and the Duke of Zhou was a sage. He examined the ministers and found out that Jiu Yao was brief and elegant, and that Zhou Gong's edicts were troublesome and thorough. Why? Jiu Yao talked with Shun and Yu, and the Duke of Zhou and his subordinates swore an oath. Liang's words are meant for all ordinary people, so his writings cannot reach far. However, the last words of his teachings are all based on historical facts, and his sincerity and sincerity are reflected in his writings, which are enough to understand the person's thoughts and principles, and they can be useful to the current world. ④ However, a talented man is better at governing the army, a clever plan is a shortcoming, and he is better at managing the people than general strategy. However, the enemy we faced may have talented people, but the numbers were too small, and their attack and defense were different. Therefore, even though they mobilized the masses for many years, they were unable to defeat them. In the past, Xiao He recommended Han Xin, and Guan Zhong promoted Wang Zicheng's father. They both considered their own strengths and could not take advantage of both. A bright weapon can govern politics, but it can also control and Xiao's Yapi. At that time, the famous generals did not have Chengfu and Han Xin, so their achievements were delayed and their righteousness was not as good as evil? Destiny has its destiny and cannot be fought with intelligence. ⑤Liang rarely has the talent to stand out from the crowd and is the weapon of heroic domination. ⑥ Prime Minister Zhuge was brave, loyal and strong, forgetting about himself and the country.
Yang Xi: He is loyal and wise, offers advice to the riverside, climbs Wu and Lianshu, and has the power to be true in the world. After receiving the legacy of A Heng, he improved his martial arts and improved his writing, spread out his moral education, studied physics and changed the wind, and the wise and foolish competed with each other in their minds, forgetting their own bodies. In the country of Jingjing, the four descendants of Sui came to the enemy's court many times, showing off their power, studying the great country, and hating Wei Yi.
Zhang Yi: Rewards should not be far away, punishment should not be close, no title should be obtained without merit, and punishment should not be avoided by high power. This is why the virtuous and foolish people forget their own bodies.
Jia Xu: Zhuge Liang is good at governing the country.
Liu Ye: Zhuge Liang was wise in governing and became prime minister.
Fu Qian: Zhuge Liangda knows how to manage changes, is upright and thoughtful, and acts as the prime minister.
Liu Bei: ①The king is ten times more talented than Cao Pi, and he will definitely be able to secure the country and finalize major events. ② The solitary one has holes, just like a fish has water.
Cao Rui: Great ambition but no opportunity, many plans but few decisions, good soldiers but no power!
Sima Yi: He is a genius in the world!
Zhou Yu: Since Yu is born, how can Liang be born!
Historical status
In the Tang Dynasty, a martial arts temple appeared for the first time in Chinese history.
1. "New Tang Book - Rites and Music Five" records: "In the 19th year of Kaiyuan, the Taigong Shangfu Temple was built, and the Taigong was honored as King Wucheng. The ceremony was compared with that of King Wenxuan. The ten wise men of the martial arts temple are: Sun Wu of the Wu State in the Spring and Autumn Period, Sima Ranju of the Qi State, Wu Qi of the Wei State of the Warring States Period, Le Yi of the Yan State, Bai Qi of the Qin State, and Zhang of the Western Han Dynasty. Liang, Han Xin, Zhuge Liang of the Shu Han Dynasty, Li Jing and Li Shiji of the Tang Dynasty, and Yi Taigongwang was the chief worshiper of the Wu Temple."
2. Emperor Zhaozong of the Tang Dynasty named Zhuge Liang the King of Wuling and granted the temple to Longzhong.
The Song Dynasty not only worshiped Zhuge as a loyal minister (given Yinghui Temple and added "Renji"), but also still worshiped Zhuge as a famous general. His status was second only to Zhang Liang, who ranked first alone, and was still the same as Sun Wu. , Han Xin, Li Jing and others are on an equal footing.
"History of the Song Dynasty" Volume 105 "Book of Rites VIII": In the fifth year of Xuanhe, the Ministry of Rites said: "Wuchengwang Temple will worship seventy-two generals." So the memorial day was laid, and Zhang Liang was honored in the temple. Different grades are divided according to the direction:
First grade: Zhang Liang
Second grade: Guan Zhong, Sun Wu, Le Yi, Zhuge Liang, Li Ji and facing west, Tian Rangju, Fan Li, Han Xin, Li Jing, Guo Ziyi merged to the east
The third stage: Donglang, Bai Qi, Sun Bin, Lian Po, Li Mu, Cao Shen, Zhou Bo, Li Guang, Huo Qubing, Deng Yu, Feng Yi, Wu Han, Ma Yuan, Huangfu Song , Deng Ai, Zhang Fei, Lu Meng, Lu Kang, Du Yu, Tao Kan, Murong Ke, Yu Wenxian, Wei Xiaokuan, Yang Su, He Ruobi, Li Xiaogong, Su Dingfang, Wang Xiaojie, Wang Jun, Li Guangbi, and heading west;
< p>Fourth gear: Xilang, Wu Qi, Tian Dan, Zhao She, Wang Jian, Peng Yue, Zhou Yafu, Wei Qing, Zhao Chongguo, Kou Xun, Jia Fu, Geng Yan, Duan Yan, Zhang Liao, Guan Yu, Zhou Yu, Lu Xun, Yang Hu, Wang Jun, Xie Xuan, Wang Meng, Wang Zhene, Hu Luguang, Wang Sengbian, Yu Jin, Wu Mingche, Han Qinhu, Shi Wansui, Yuchi Jingde, Pei Xingjian, Zhang Rendan, Guo Yuanzhen, Li Sheng, and heading east.The Jin people followed the old system of the Tang Dynasty, but lowered the status of Guan Zhong and Han Xin, and eliminated Wang Meng and Murong Ke. Zhuge Liang's status as a famous general remained unchanged. Moreover, in the concept of "History of the Jin Dynasty", whoever says "Zhuge Liang does not know how to fight" proves that this person is "a big talker".
The number of worshipers in the Wu Temple in the Yuan Dynasty was greatly reduced, and many people were eliminated, but there was still Zhuge Liang, whose status was equal to that of Sun Wu and others.
1. "The Five Wucheng King Articles in the History of Yuan Dynasty Sacrifice" records: "King Wucheng established a temple to the west of the Privy Council Hall, and ten people including Sun Wuzi, Zhang Liang, Guan Zhong, Leyi and Zhuge Liang worshiped there. .
2. Emperor Yingzong of the Yuan Dynasty conferred Zhuge Liang the title of King Xu Lie Zhongwu Xianling Renji
