Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang were a pair of great military and political leaders who joined forces to create the Shu Han regime. However, their relationship has not always been smooth sailing.
In one incident, Liu Bei once wanted to kill a person, but was saved by Zhuge Liang. However, not long after, Zhuge Liang died, and this person said to Liu Bei: "It's a happy event."
That person was Ma Liang. Under Liu Bei's rule, Ma Liang was an excellent general and strategist who made great contributions to the Shu Kingdom. However, at some point, for some reason, Liu Bei decided to kill Ma Liang.
Liu Bei's decision shocked and puzzled some important officials of Shu. They turned to Zhuge Liang for help, hoping that he could salvage this unfortunate situation.
Zhuge Liang knew that Liu Bei was doing other things, and he was very dissatisfied with Liu Bei's decision. He understood the value and importance of Ma Liang, and he believed that Ma Liang was an important pillar of Shu and could not be easily lost.
So, Zhuge Liang chose an ingenious way to save Ma Liang. He consulted with Ma Liang and hatched a plan to fake his death. Zhuge Liang made a seemingly dead device and asked Ma Liang to fit it in. Then, he asked a trusted confidant of his to bring the device to Liu Bei, and told Liu Bei that Ma Liang was dead.
When Liu Bei heard the news, he was very shocked and saddened. He didn't want to kill Ma Liang originally, but out of some misunderstandings and impulses, he made this decision. Now, he realizes that he has misunderstood and wronged Ma Liang, and he is deeply remorseful.
Just when Liu Bei was immersed in pain and self-blame, Zhuge Liang suddenly appeared in front of him. Liu Bei was pleasantly surprised, he couldn't believe his eyes.
Zhuge Liang told Liu Bei that Ma Liang was not actually dead, it was just a plan to fake his death. He explained that this was to make Liu Bei realize his mistakes, and at the same time it was a punishment for Liu Bei.
Liu Bei regretted it after washing all the lead, he hugged Zhuge Liang gratefully, and expressed his willingness to follow his arrangements and instructions. He vowed to atone for his sins, repair his relationship with Maleonn, and cherish this precious friendship even more.
However, just when Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang were getting closer, Zhuge Liang suddenly died of illness. Liu Bei felt very sad and lost about Zhuge Liang's death, and he even fell into depression and confusion for a period of time.
At this moment, Ma Liang walked up to Liu Bei's side, and he said in a gentle tone: "Lord, do you know? Mr. Zhuge passed away is a happy event for me. ”
Liu Bei listened to Ma Liang's words, Huo Ran raised his head and looked at Ma Liang with a puzzled face: "Why do you say that? Aren't you full of respect and gratitude to Zhuge Liang?"
Ma Liang smiled and explained, "Lord, please forgive me for my blunt remarks. I am not happy about Zhuge Liang's passing, but I am relieved and grateful for his happy event.
Mr. has always been a loyal servant of the country and the people, he put aside his selfish desires and enjoyments, and wholeheartedly worked for the welfare of Shu and the people. He often emphasized to us that 'the destiny of heaven should be known when happy events', and even when he was dying, he never forgot this saying. ”
Liu Bei's eyes became deeper, and he asked, "Ma Liang, can you tell me in detail what Zhuge Liang had to say to you before he died?"
Ma Liang solemnly recalled and began to tell the story of Zhuge Liang before his death: "My lord, at that time, I and other courtiers gathered in front of Mr. Zhuge 's sickbed, and he said to us: 'I can no longer contribute more to the Shu Kingdom, and now it is time to hand over the power to you to protect the country.
I have never regretted dedicating my life to my country. I hope you can unite as one and work together to develop Shu into a stronger country. For me, my departure is a happy event because it will be the best ending for me when I leave. ’”
After Ma Liang finished speaking, tears flashed in his eyes, which was not only a remembrance of Zhuge Liang, but also a deep grief for himself.
Liu Bei stared silently into the distance, and he fell into deep thought. Zhuge Liang's words echoed in his mind, and he understood that Zhuge Liang was telling him that as the heir of the Liu family, he should take on greater responsibilities and continue to protect and lead the Shu Kingdom and seek happiness for the people.
Gradually, Liu Bei picked himself up from his grief and confusion, and he was determined to carry on Zhuge Liang's legacy and continue to make more contributions to the Shu Kingdom. He understood that as a monarch, he must be as wise and courageous as Zhuge Liang, and always uphold his responsibilities to the country and the people.
Time passed, and the state of Shu continued to prosper under Liu Bei's leadership. Liu Bei kept in mind Zhuge Liang's teachings, listened to the voices of the people, formulated fair policies, promoted agricultural reform, and promoted economic prosperity. His reign led the Shu Kingdom to a new era of glory.
