Zhuge Liang (181-234), also spelled Kong Ming,Wolong,ancestral home of Langya Yangdu,Hansi colonel Zhuge Feng, father Zhuge Jue, stepmother Xie Shi, eldest brother Zhuge Jin, younger brother Zhuge Jun. Uncle Zhuge Xuan, wife of the Wang clan, had two daughters. Zhuge Xuan entered taixue in his early years and became acquainted with Yuan Shu, Yuan Shao, and Liu Biao.
Zhuge Liang lost his mother at the age of five, and when he was eight years old, his father left Jingshi with his stepmother and eldest brother to take up the post of Taishan Commandery, and Zhuge Liang and Zhuge Liang both passed on to his uncle Zhuge Xuan and stayed in Luoyang.
In the last year of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Dong Zhuo was chaotic, and in the first year of the Eastern Han Dynasty (190), Dong Zhuo was in turmoil, and the thirteen princes of the Thirteen Roads allied with Dong Zhuo, and in February, Dong Zhuo saw that the situation was critical, and burned Luoyang, and the two hundred miles of the Beijing Division was divided into ashes, and then moved the imperial court to Xi'an, from the town of Luoyang, hunting down and killing the relatives of various rebel princes, more than fifty of yuan's deceased, Yuan Shu escaped from Luoyang, and temporarily took refuge in Luyang.
At this time, in order to escape the chaos of war, Zhuge Xuan also took his whole family to Live in Ye County, and recommended Zhuge Xuan to be the Taishou of Yuzhang in Yuan Shu of Luyang, The Chronicle of the Three Kingdoms. The biography of Zhuge Liang records: "Liang Early lonely, from his father Xuan for Yuan Shu signed Yu Zhang Taishou ..."
At that time, Yuan Shu was already in opposition to Dong Zhuo, who controlled the government, so his recommendation could only be a blank cheque and needed To be appointed by Liu Biao. Zhuge Xuan took his family and continued to go south to defect to Liu Biao. "Xuan Su and Liu Biao have an old relationship, and they have relied on it..." (Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Biography of Zhuge Liang). At this time, Liu Biao, the mu of Jingzhou appointed by Dong Zhuo, had also sent emissaries to Xi'an to pay tribute to Tianzi, and the Han court also officially named his zhennan general and Jingzhou mu, and gave him the title of Marquis of Wu, holding the Tianzi Rune Festival, and had the right to appoint himself as a subordinate official. Zhuge Xuan, who had settled in Yicheng, was also officially appointed by Liu Biao as the Taishou of Yuzhang. Yuzhang was driven out of Nanchang by Zhu Hao's borrowed troops, and he returned to Yicheng along the river.
The birth of Zhuge Xuan's own son Zhuge Shi around 194 AD put Zhuge Liang, who was a consort, in a very embarrassing situation, and the contradiction between his aunt Wang Shi and Liang and Jun continued to intensify.
In 196, his father who stayed in Ye County was seriously ill, and Zhuge Xuan left his wife and children behind, so he rushed back to Ye County with the zhuge liang brothers to take care of his father, and both of them were infected with the epidemic, died of no cure, and were buried at the foot of Pingshan (now Pingdingshan City). After the expiration of the period of filial piety, the seventeen-year-old Zhuge Liang and his younger brother moved to Longzhong Wollongong in the west of Nanyang City, built a grass hut, lived down, and began a life of self-sufficiency in the rain and rain.
In 207, Liu Beisan took care of Maolu and Zhuge Liang began to assist Liu Bei, and it was not until after he was appointed chancellor of shu Han that Zhuge Jun left Nanyang with his family and went to Chengdu to reunite with his brother.
Let's talk about Zhuge Birthday, who stayed in Xiangyang. Zhuge Birthday, the word Gong Xiu, Zhuge Liang's brother-in-law, the date of birth is unknown. After the Chronicle of the Three Kingdoms records that he was Zhuge Feng, a lieutenant of the Han Dynasty, it is not clear whose son he was, and the scholar Yu Jiaxi believed in the "Notes on the New Language of the World" that Zhuge Sheng should be the son of Zhuge Xuan. Emperor Wen of Wei entered the throne during the reign of Emperor Huang (220-226). Chu Yi Shang Shu Lang was appointed Xingyang Ling.
Who was Zhuge Shi's biological father? Modern scholars believe that Zhuge Shi's father should be Zhuge Xuan, because according to the "Three Brothers of Zhuge In the New Language of the World", "Zhuge Jin's brother Liang, and his brother's birthday, and have a great reputation, each in one country." At that time, it was thought that 'Shu got its dragon, Wu got its tiger, wei got its dog", the book records that Zhuge Zhi was Zhuge Jin's brother-in-law, and at that time, Zhuge Sheng's brother referred to the same grandfather, but the father was different, and Zhuge Jin's father, there is only one brother of Zhuge Xuan, so it is believed that Zhuge Xuan's son. However, this record is different from that in the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", which records that Zhuge Zhi was Zhuge Liang's brother, which is different from the record of the "New Language of the World" Some people think that Zhuge Liang had been living with Zhuge Xuan when he was a child, if Zhuge Liang was really Zhuge Xuan's son, how could Zhuge Liang not mention him? This matter was not until 2016, the emergence of Zhuge Liang's "Book of Youzi", and the mystery was revealed.
In 234 AD, Zhuge Liang left a letter to his son Zhuge Zhan before his death. The Book of Sending Sons reads: "Yu Zilongzhong was a person who was in the Wollong Gang, not self-willing and poor, grandfather Ju Han famous minister, Xiangyang City, Menge He Gaogaoye, but born in a chaotic world, wanted to set up a house in Nanyang, in order to cultivate the crops, the first emperor three Gu Zhilong, righteousness is difficult to refuse, had to pay agricultural affairs to Ru ZhiZhi Junye, Yu Jin's post is based on the minister, appointed as a military division, left in the four (West) Chuan, will wish also, look forward to Xiangyang, and then want to meet with his brothers. ......."
Translation: "I built a hut under the Wollong Gang in Longzhong, not to be self-righteous and poor, my grandfather and father are all famous courtiers of the Han Dynasty, in Xiangyang City, the door is very tall, but born in a chaotic world, I would rather set up my own farm in Nanyang to facilitate the cultivation of crops, I did not expect that the former emperor (Liu Bei) three Gu Maolu, righteousness is difficult to refuse, I had to entrust agricultural affairs to your uncle Zhuge Jun, I am now an official, as a military teacher, staying in the Four (West) River, this is not my wish, looking forward to Xiangyang, but can no longer meet with my brothers." ......."
The letter said that Zhuge Liang no longer went to Xiangyang Zhuge Xuan's house, but in Nanyang Longzhong Wollongong, where the courtyard of the deep mansion could not be lived, and he built his own grass house, not to be poor and lowly, but to be more convenient for him to cultivate Longmu? This reason is rather far-fetched, and there should be deep-seated factors such as family conflicts, which is not easy to explain.
The "Xiangyang Brothers" in Zhuge Liang's text refer to his brother Zhuge Zhi and his two sisters and brothers-in-law, and some people believe that the "Xiangyang Brothers" in the letter are his own brother Zhuge Jun, which is wrong, because Zhuge Jun at this time has long left Nanyang Wollongong and served as a lieutenant in Changshui in Shu Han.
History is like this, the three brothers of the Zhuge family belong to the three camps of Wu, Shu and Wei, Zhuge Liang and Zhuge Jin, everyone has already understood, and the status of the younger brother Zhuge in the early Jin Dynasty far exceeded that of the two brothers, and achieved the most brilliant achievements of the Zhuge family.
