What piano does Zhuge Liang play?

In everyone's eyes, Zhuge Liang was the prime minister of Shu Han during the Three Kingdoms period. We know him more because of his extraordinary military strategy and far-reaching vision, but in fact Zhuge Liang is also very excellent in art. Zhuge Liang can be fearless in times of crisis and dare to play the piano calmly on the empty city. Zhuge Liang can also play the piano quietly when no one is around to relieve his inner boredom.

Zhuge Liang is not only a strategist, but also has superb piano skills. When Zhuge Liang lived in seclusion in his early years, he often played the piano, recited poems and exchanged ideas with his "little friends". After coming out of the mountains, I also talk about a song in my spare time. On the one hand, in order to ease their emotions, on the other hand, they can keep a clear head. But when it comes to Zhuge Liang playing the piano, it is more important that Zhuge Liang is sitting alone on the top of the city in an "empty city plan", playing an elastic guqin and playing a melodious and powerful piano sound.

In Romance of the Three Kingdoms, ninety-five times. When Zhuge Liang fought against Sima Yi's soldiers, he resolutely went to Chengtou at the crucial moment and played an ambush on all sides. In the end, Sima Yi dared not enter the city on his own. Finally, such an empty city was preserved.

So, what kind of piano is Zhuge Liang playing at this time? Many people may say that it is a guzheng, but this is not right. The guqin played by Zhuge Liang is actually a musical instrument with low popularity. But it is indeed a favorite instrument of the ancients, because the sound played by guqin is melodious and long. Therefore, we need to know more about guqin, which can last forever.

Where is Zhuge Liang from?

The information of Zhuge Liang's birthplace included in Baidu Encyclopedia clearly states that Langya Yang Du is now yinan county in Linyi, Shandong Province, which should be a more formal and unified statement at present. Just because of the changes of past dynasties, there are many sources of textual research. Whether Nanyang is in Henan or Hubei, as mentioned in Zhuge Liang's article, is still controversial in historians.

Research on Zhuge Liang's family background: Zhuge Liang's father Zhuge Jue and his mother's surname Zhang. Stepmother's surname is Song. Uncle Zhuge Xuan. From the Zhuge family mentioned in the history books. There are also historical records that Zhuge Dan is the 28th generation and Zhuge Liang is the 5th generation, both descendants of Zhuge Feng. Zhuge Feng served as a captain in the Eastern Han Dynasty. Other history books also mentioned that Zhu Gejin was a native of Langya, Yang Du. Historical records are based on a certain degree, not fabricated, so it is concluded that Zhuge Liang is a descendant of Zhuge Feng, and the Zhuge family are all from Langya Yang Du.

Zhuge Liang was first born in various counties, originally surnamed Ge, and later moved to Langxie (now south of yinan county). Because there is a family named Ge, Zhuge's compound surname is used. It is also mentioned in the book that Zhuge Liang's ancestor was Ge, who was originally from Langxie and later moved. There is a man named ge now. At that time, Zhuge Liang's family was called Zhuge, so he took Zhuge's father's surname as his surname. County should be smaller than Yang Du.

When People's Education Publishing House compiled Zhuge Liang, it wrote "Nanyang, now Xiangyang, Hubei" on the website of Nanyang. Because of this ambiguity, there is a lot of debate in academic circles, but it has not been corrected.

Before the Tang Dynasty to the Ming Dynasty, disputes continued, and people who supported Nanyang and Xiangyang had their own opinions. Even Luo Guanzhong doesn't know the real source. It is written in the book that Liu Bei went to Xiangyang three times and Zhuge Liang lived in seclusion in Nanyang, and the address was wrong, which further increased the debate on this. In the Qing Dynasty, the dispute between Nanyang and Xiangyang became more and more fierce. Even local officials in Nanyang in the Qing Dynasty wrote couplets to persuade them to the effect that as long as the courtiers were loyal to the court, why should they care which was the first and which was the last? As long as they are famous in the world, why should they care about their birthplace? Although it was right, it didn't stop arguing.

Zhuge Liang's Daoism

It is said that at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the situation was turbulent. Strong thieves recruit soldiers, small thieves gather mountains. Heroes from all directions are waiting for chaos in the world, so that dragons can emerge from the clouds and occupy the high hall. Zhuge Liang is one of them. As a scholar, he can do nothing but study the art of war and Taoism, hoping to be of great use in the future.

In order to learn Taoism, Zhuge Liang found Mr. Shui Jing, not far from Wan Li, and learned from him with an open mind. Later, when he went down the mountain, he met a large number of talented people and kept learning and communicating with each other, so Zhuge Liang's Taoism became more and more sophisticated. As a beginner, Zhuge Liang enjoys it, attaching himself to scholars all over the country and constantly promoting himself. Later, Liu Bei and Liu Huangshu became famous. Zhuge Liang was originally in Lu, but in order to try his own technology and test Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang used the power of shrinking the land to go thousands of miles away at once. So his boy can only lie that Zhuge Liang went out to visit friends.

Since Zhuge Liang came out to assist Liu Bei, he has been using his Daoism, which makes the enemy very upset. Battle of Red Cliffs and Zhuge Liang not only made the east wind rise, but also killed and injured countless Cao Cao troops. Later, he used Daoism to make his former ally Zhou Yu seriously ill and finally died. Because frequent use of Daoism will damage his life, Zhuge Liang will not use Daoism unless he has to.

Later, when Qishan attacked Cao Pi, Zhuge Liang once again used the power of shrinking the land to escape Sima Yi's pursuit, saving the lives of all the soldiers, but his own life was greatly damaged and he soon died in the army account.

Zhuge Liang fortune-telling method

In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Zhuge Liang not only used soldiers as gods, but also used things as gods, and he could give orders and pass on beans to make soldiers. Although the real Zhuge Liang in history is not so powerful, he is very accurate in judging people and can tell fortune.

When Liu Bei visited Zhuge Liang for the first time, although Liu Bei did not see Zhuge Liang's true face, Zhuge Liang secretly saw Liu Bei's appearance. Zhuge Liang knew that Liu Bei must be the only thrill when he saw that his heaven was full, his figure was wide, his hands were knee-high, his eyes were phoenix, and his big ears could catch the wind and swallow the earth. Ladies and gentlemen, there is a long-standing fortune-telling method in China culture. Every reader has basically studied fortune telling, and even if he is not good at it, he can still approach it. Zhuge Liang is talented and quick-thinking. He especially likes Taoist magic when he is studying, so he is especially good at fortune telling. When Zhuge Liang visited Liu Bei for the first time, he didn't go to see him because he wanted to observe Liu Bei in the dark and use the fortune-telling method he had learned all his life to see if Liu Bei could succeed in his career.

Zhuge Liang refused to accept Liu Bei's visit for the second time, also in order to observe Liu Bei through fortune telling. Because in China, fortune tellers believe that a person's face and destiny are always linked, and they are not born immutable. If you do something good, the texture on your face will change very slightly, and your fate will change accordingly; If you do too many bad things, good luck will gradually turn into bad luck.

So Zhuge Liang pretended not to be at home twice in a row and refused to accept Liu Bei's visit, that is, he was telling Liu Bei's fortune by fortune telling. As soon as Zhuge Liang confirmed that Liu Bei was the only thrill, he immediately went out to see Liu Bei for the third time, accepted the invitation and went out to assist Liu Bei.

Zhuge Liang and Huang Yueying

Zhuge Liang was charming and talented when he was young. Studying all the way, peach blossoms are everywhere, but he is obsessed with learning. It can be said that every leaf in the flowers has not touched him. For a time, the names of Zhuge gifted scholars were widely circulated among the people.

Zhuge Liang wandered to Huangjiawan in Xiangyang and made friends with Huang, who had been forgotten for many years. They hit it off and enjoyed each other. Then meet in restaurants and teahouses every day to talk about what's going on in the world. It's very enjoyable.

One day, Huang took a thin boy. Although his face is ugly, his eyes are handsome and wise, but he followed around without saying anything. So it didn't have any effect on chatting with friends who forgot the year. Every day since then, the boy has been quietly following Huang and Zhuge Liang.

One day, half a month later, Zhuge Liang waited for Huang in the appointed tea room's elegant bag as usual, but he saw a beautiful and graceful young woman sitting down naturally after entering the room. Despite her reticence,

It turns out that Zhuge Liang has seen his daughter since the Facebook boy first appeared. For nearly half a month, although the boy didn't speak, every time he talked with Huang Weng, his expression and eyes were involved. It is more like three people talking than two people talking. So in Zhuge Liang's mind, he has recognized his daughter as a Facebook child, and concluded that she is Huang Weng's only daughter. Legend has it that she is an ugly but talented person in the countryside. I didn't think about it. The rumor is false.

After drinking three cups of tea, Miss Huang got up and left. As soon as he put on his black cloak, he became a Facebook boy.

Once you decide, you won't miss it. Even if you are extremely clever, you can't escape the secular aesthetic vision. Teacher Huang knows this better than anyone. No one knew that they met in this way.

Three days later, decorated with lanterns, Zhuge Caizi, the dream lover of thousands of famous families, married the ugly girl of the Huang family. It also became an anecdote at that time.

Descendants of Zhuge Liang

I haven't really thought about this problem. I have always regarded him as a god, and the question of whether God will have children has never really been considered.

Closer to home, Zhuge Liang's wife, an ugly girl who is not outstanding in appearance but outstanding in talent, is well known. Therefore, this talented counselor doesn't even have the same criteria for choosing a spouse as others. He doesn't like beautiful women and loves talented women. But what makes people depressed is that they have not had their own children for nearly 30 years after marriage. There is an ancient saying: there are three kinds of unfilial, and there is no big one after. Kong Ming was also anxious, so he had to adopt his eldest brother's second son as his son. Unfortunately, this son died at the age of 25. Fortunately, when he died, he left his own child Zhuge Pan. God's trick was that Zhuge Liang's family was hacked to death in Soochow, so Zhuge Pan went home and continued to burn incense.

Fortunately, Zhuge Liang was blessed with his son, Zhuge Zhan, in his later years. His son is very clever and has a good memory. He completely inherited his father's high IQ and was very popular with the people. His career was smooth sailing, and he died for his country. Zhuge Zhan's eldest son, Zhuge Shang, was in his prime. He followed in his father's footsteps, went into battle and died for his country. He was a brave man.

Zhuge Zhan's second son, Zhu Gejin, is still young and has not gone to war. Later, he was recruited as an official and served as the magistrate of Meixian County, which was also the unfulfilled wish of his grandfather Zhuge Liang to save money.

At this time, it was a descendant of Zhuge Liang recorded in historical books. What happened afterwards?

According to legend, the descendants of Zhuge Liang 14 generation Sun Zhuge Li, Zhuge Qing and their four sons are mostly distributed in Lanxi generation, Zhejiang Province. Now there is a Zhuge town in Zhejiang, where the descendants of Zhuge gather the most.

In my opinion, why care so much? Zhuge Liang's reputation as a generation of counselors has gone down in history. Do we really want to trace his blood and hope that another generation of counselors like Kong Ming will emerge? Zhu Gekongming, one person is enough.
