When it was late autumn, the weather was cold and cold, and my friends drove to the bottom of Zibai Mountain, and met the Han Zhang Liuhou Ancestral Hall, known locally as Zhang Liang Temple, which is the ancestral temple of Zhang Liang, the founding strategist of the Western Han Dynasty. The ancestral hall is located in the purple surrounding mountains, surrounded by flowing water, the nine courtyards of the ancestral hall are connected, the architectural design is exquisite, and the sense of age is very strong.
The archway at the entrance is spectacular and majestic, exquisitely built, and is a landmark building of the Han Zhangliu Ancestral Hall. According to historical records, Zhang Liang was born in the city father, and his ancestors served as the minister of state of the Korean king for five generations in Korea, and Zhang Liang received a good education and family cultivation since childhood, laying the foundation for him to become a generation of famous people.
According to legend, after the Qin state defeated Korea, Zhang Liang ambushed Qin Shi Huang in Bolangsha and after the assassination failed, he fled to Xia Pi, met the old man of Huangshi, and obtained the "Taigong Art of War". Shortly thereafter, Zhang Liang persuaded Xiang Liang to make the nobleman of Han the King of Han and hold the position of Situ, until the King of Han was killed by Xiang Yu and Zhang Liang returned to Liu Bang and became a strategist.
Initially, Zhang Liang urged Liu Bang to humble himself and preserve his strength at the Hongmen banquet, and dredged Xiang Yuji's father Xiang Bo, so that Liu Bang could escape smoothly, showing Zhang Liangjie's strategy.
Later, during the Chu-Han War, Zhang Liang united with Yingbu, Han Xin, and Peng Yue to annihilate the Qin army. Zhang Liang, with his outstanding wisdom, assisted Liu Bang in winning the Chu-Han War, and was assigned to Liucheng in Jiangsu, known in history as "Liuhou".
Soon after Liu Bang ascended the throne, he successively killed Han Xin and other meritorious ministers, and Zhang Liang retreated with his whole body by relying on the wisdom of the people, staying on the Zibai Mountain in the depths of the Qinling Mountains to cultivate the valley, and the term "valley" was actually the place where Zhang Liang cultivated. From the perspective of the choice of geographical wind, Zhang Liang has long thought of a way out, which is also the superiority of Zhang Liang's wisdom.
Zhang Liang, together with Xiao He and Han Xin, was called the "Three Masters of the Early Han Dynasty", and Liu Bang once called him "a decisive victory thousands of miles away in the midst of planning and planning". However, Zhang Liang was well aware of Liu Bang's heart, and after achieving outstanding achievements, he pushed off many government affairs on the grounds of frailty and illness, and practiced behind closed doors at home. Until the establishment of the Western Han Dynasty, Zhang Liang resigned and left the government.
Zhang Liang was the head of the "Three Masters of the Early Han Dynasty", and Liu Bang himself said in this way: "I am not as good as Zhang Liang if I give advice and make a decisive victory over a thousand miles." Zhang Liang is not only brilliant in wisdom and strategy, but also does not love power, so he is respected by posterity as "the first saint in the world".
Until the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Zhang Lu, the 10th generation descendant of Zhang Liang, became the "King of Hanzhong", and in order to honor the superior wisdom of his ancestors who did not seek the title of emperor and did not regard himself as an extremely popular subject, he built this "Han ZhangLiu Marquis Ancestral Hall".
As for Zhang Liang's death, there are many theories, and it is rumored that after Zhang Liang lived in seclusion, he concentrated on cultivating in the valley and finally died of illness.
