You can refer to the former model, the latter model and Zhuge Liang's suicide note to Liu Chan. (old watch)
Pre-model
I'm a commoner, I've done my best for Nanyang, I'm willing to risk my life in troubled times, and I don't want Wenda to become a vassal. . . When I was appointed as the defeated army, I was ordered to be in danger: I have been here for twenty years. The first emperor knew that I was cautious, so he sent me to be a minister in case of collapse. . . . . . The minister was therefore loyal to His Majesty and the first emperor. . . . Your majesty should also ask for help, consult the good way, and make a thorough study of the imperial edict. I am very grateful! Stay away from it today, and you will cry and be confused.
Among them, these three sentences show Zhuge Liang's personality characteristics, caution, loyalty and indifference to fame and fortune:
If you put your life in troubled times, you don't want Wenda to be a vassal, showing his indifference to fame and fortune, not striving for progress, and showing noble character as an official.
The first emperor knew that his ministers were cautious, which showed that he was cautious and good at being entrusted by others.
Since I was appointed, I have been worried all night, fearing that my entrustment will be invalid and loyal to your majesty. Show its "loyalty and purity" character, serve the country wholeheartedly and report to the monarch.
After the model:
The last paragraph:
It is difficult for a husband to make peace, and things are also. Yesterday, the first emperor was defeated in Chu. At this time, Cao Cao clapped his hands and said that the world was settled.
The first emperor marched eastward to wuyue, took Ba and Shu from the west, transferred troops to the north, and chopped Xia Houdun.
Meter, and Korea's things also became. -then Wu Geng violated the alliance, Guan Yu was defeated, Zigui fell, and Xelloss proclaimed himself:
Everything is like this, and it is hard to see irreversibility. I try my best to die; As for failure and outspoken, it is not the minister's knowledge.
I can look backwards.
It can be seen that Zhuge Liang is loyal and has "confidence" in himself, hoping to gamble, thus serving the country and repaying the late emperor.
Finally, Zhuge Liang's legacy:
I live in Chengdu, where there are 100 mulberry trees and 50 hectares of fertile land. I have my own spare time to make children's clothes. As for my work outside the home, I was deeply involved in the official movement and didn't care about production, so I grew up. On the day I died, I didn't make much money inside, but I won money outside to show my gratitude to your majesty.
It can be seen that Zhuge Liang is an honest official, dedicated to the country and king, with clean hands and a white and respectable official style. This is also where today's society and today's officials should study hard. We are really not as good as the ancients!
Finally:
At the age of 54, Zhuge Liang wrote the Book of Commandments to his 8-year-old son Zhuge Zhan. "If you are not indifferent, you will have no ambition. If you are not quiet, you will be far away." This is not only a summary of Zhuge Liang's life experience, but also a requirement for his son. Here Zhuge Liang used the sentence pattern of "double negation" and expressed his teaching and infinite expectations for his son in a strong euphemistic tone. In modern words: "If you don't look down on the immediate fame and fortune, you won't have a clear ambition. If you can't study calmly and concentrate on your studies, you can't achieve your lofty goals. "
As can be seen from the above, Zhuge Liang's integrity can be said to be "a generation of great men", and listening to his life has to be awe-inspiring.
