為什么說關公雕塑像是忠義的化身呢

《三國演義》這本書一問世，關羽的影響力在民間越來越大，到了后期甚至被神話了。除了民間影響，歷代朝廷對關羽也多有冊封，導致關于徹底成為“忠義”的化身。那么為什么說關公雕塑是忠義的化身呢？

As soon as the book "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" was published, Guan Yu's influence became more and more popular among the people. In the later stage, it was even mythologized. In addition to the influence of the people, the imperial courts of the past dynasties also conferred many titles on Guan Yu, which led to the question of thoroughly becoming the embodiment of "loyalty". So why is Guan Gong's sculpture the embodiment of loyalty?

關羽自“劉關張桃園三結義”之后，一生跟隨劉備，忠義勇武、堅貞不二。關羽去世后，逐漸被神化，被民間尊為“關公”，又稱美髯公，后又被尊崇為“武圣”，與“文圣”孔子齊名。

Guan Yu has followed Liu Bei all his life since "Liu Guan and Zhang Taoyuan became sworn brothers". He is loyal, brave and loyal. After his death, Guan Yu was gradually deified, and was honored as the "Duke of Guan", also known as the "Duke of Beauty" by the people. Later, he was honored as the "Saint of Martial Arts", and was as famous as the "Saint of Literature" Confucius.

而我們熟悉的小說《三國演義》本就有“尊劉貶曹”的色彩，所以《三國演義》為表現關羽的忠義勇武也絲毫不吝嗇筆墨，并尊關羽為蜀國“五虎上將”之首。

The novel "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", which we are familiar with, has the color of "respecting Liu and belittling Cao", so "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" shows Guan Yu's loyalty and bravery, and respects Guan Yu as the head of the "Five Tiger Generals" in Shu.

此外，清初文學批評家毛宗崗版的《三國演義》中“尊劉貶曹”的色彩就更明顯了，毛宗崗更是稱關羽為“演義三絕”之“義絕”。

In addition, in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms published by Mao Zonggang, a literary critic in the early Qing Dynasty, the color of "respecting Liu and belittling Cao" is more obvious.

久而久之，關羽忠義勇武的形象就深入人心了，生意人因此認為關羽最講義氣，所以取“和氣生財”之意將關公像擺放在店里或家里。

Over time, Guan Yu's image of loyalty and bravery became deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Therefore, businessmen believed that Guan Yu was the most loyal, so they put the image of Guan Yu in the store or home with the meaning of "harmony makes money".
