第253部分(3 / 7)

 when he saw the condition of the great leader; crying; 〃I have foiled the great designs of the state!〃

However; presently Zhuge Liang's eyes reopened and fell upon Li Fu standing near his couch。

〃I know your mission;〃 said Zhuge Liang。

〃I came with the royal mand to ask also who should control the destinies of the state for the next century;〃 replied Li Fu。 〃In my agitation I forgot to ask that。〃

〃After me; Jiang Wan is the most fitting man to deal with great matters。〃

〃And after Jiang Wan?〃

〃After him; Fei Yi。〃

〃Who is next after Fei Yi?〃

No reply came; and when they looked more carefully; they perceived that the soul of the Prime Minister had passed。

Thus died Zhuge Liang; on the twenty…third day of the eighth month in the twelfth year of Beginning Prosperity; at the age of fifty and four (AD 234)。

The poet Du Fu wrote some verses on his death。

A bright star last night falling from the sky;

This message gave; 〃The Master is no more。〃

No more in camps shall bold men tramp at his mand;

At court no statesman ever will fill the place he held;

At home; his clients miss their patron kind;

Sad for the army; who were lonely in this world。

In the green wood stones and creeks are crying;

No more of his lute; birds have hushed singing。

And Bai Juyi also wrote a poem:

Within the forest dim the Master lived obscure;

Till; thrice returning; there the prince his mentor met。

As when a fish the ocean gains; desire was filled

Wholly the dragon freed could soar aloft at will。

As king's son's guardian none more zealous was;

As minister; most loyally he wrought at court。

His war memorials still to us are left
