The emperor of Shu tried to control the land of Wu and conquered as far as the Three Gorges but he was mortally wounded, and died in his palace in Chongqing. It was a time of good fortunate at the jade palace, not a wild temple in the empty mountains. Water cranes nested in the pines. The elders were honored at festivals. The Wu temple is nearby now; the emperor and his subjects worship there together.
蜀主窥吴幸三峡,崩年亦在永安宫。 翠华想像空山里,玉殿虚无野寺中。 古庙杉松巢水鹤,岁时伏腊走村翁。 武侯祠堂常邻近,一体君臣祭祀同。
