Nanyang Scenery

Nanyang City, formerly known as Wan, is a prefecture-level city under the jurisdiction of Henan Province, a sub-provincial city, a third-tier city, and an important transportation hub in the central region approved by the State Council. It is a regional central city in the border area of Henan, Hubei and Shaanxi. Nanyang City has a profound history and culture and is an important birthplace of Chu and Han culture. The allusions or legends of Three Visits to the Thatched Cottage, Sheep Continues to Hang Fish, Pangu Myth, Cowherd and Weaver Girl all originated here. It is the "Hometown of Chinese Roses", "World Ai Township", and "Hometown of Chinese Jade Carving". Regarding Zhuge Liang's "I am a commoner, farming in Nanyang", is it Nanyang or Xiangyang? The history book records: "Three Kingdoms Zhuge Liang Biography": Liang was orphaned early, and his father Xuan was appointed as the governor of Yuzhang by Yuan Shu, and Xuan brought Liang and his brother Jun to the official. The Han Dynasty re-elected Zhu Hao to replace Xuan. Xuan had an old relationship with Liu Biao, the governor of Jingzhou, and went to rely on him. Xuan died, Liang was farming, and he liked to sing "Liang Fu Yin". He was eight feet tall and always compared himself with Guan Zhong and Yue Yi, but no one agreed. Only Cui Zhouping of Boling and Xu Shu Yuandao of Yingchuan were friendly with Liang and believed it to be true. "Three Kingdoms Zhuge Liang Biography" Note: Liang's family is in Deng County, Nanyang, 20 miles west of Xiangyang City, called Longzhong. "Jin Shu Xizaochi Biography": Enter from the north gate, look west to Longzhong, think of the dragon's chant; look east to Baisha, think of the phoenix's voice. In the late Eastern Han Dynasty, Nanyang was initially occupied by Yuan Shu and later by Cao Cao. Liu Biao sent Liu Bei to guard Xinye, and Cao Cao was rejected to the north, more than 50 kilometers away from Nanyang. It is not ruled out that Zhuge Liang followed his uncle Zhuge Xuan when he was young. Zhuge Xuan was once an official of Yuan Shu and may have stayed in Nanyang for a short time. But after Zhuge Liang went to Jingzhou, he would not live in seclusion in Cao Cao's territory. Moreover, Nanyang Wolonggang is located near the downtown area and cannot be secluded. Liu Bei could not go to Cao Cao's territory, Nanyang, to visit Zhuge Liang. Although it is a fake, literati of all dynasties have also worked hard to sing and admire.
