Liu Yu said coldly: "Since ancient times, people with different paths have not conspired with each other. Lu Yuanlong (Lu Xun's diminutive), please don't make such an idea. I don't believe in fate, nor do I believe in such nihilistic things as ghosts and gods. Moreover, from now on
From you old childhood friends, I have finally seen through your Celestial Master’s ways. From now on, it’s best if we don’t interfere with each other and everyone can live in peace.”
Lu Xun smiled slightly: "Jinu, you have never thought about why I want to join Tianshi Dao?"
Liu Yu said angrily: "Because your Lu family can't be an official in Dajin, so you just gritted your teeth and joined the Tianshi Tao. With these famous names, you may be able to find another career."
Lu Xun sighed: "Jinnu, don't be like this. We are all downgraded people from the end of the world. You may not know much about my Lu family's family background. The Xie family knows it very well, but it is unlikely that they will tell you that today is a good day."
How about we take this opportunity to open our hearts and talk about what's on our minds?"
Liu Yu's heart moved. When he was in Jingkou, the Lu family was different from other families. They were rarely brave and aggressive. Lu Xun's father, Lu Gu, kept his hands on books all day long, didn't do farm work, and didn't know how to make a living.
, they were so incompatible with the fellow villagers in Jingkou. Later, the Xu family took advantage of the chaos and revolted, and the Lu family also fell into decline. Xu Daofu and Lu Xun left Jingkou when they were young, and no one cared about the family's origins.
, but today Lu Xun took the initiative to mention this matter, which could satisfy his curiosity for many years.
So Liu Yu nodded: "I have only heard that your family seems to be a famous family in the north. I don't know why you settled in Jingkou. I just have some time today. You might as well tell me."
Lu Xun nodded and said: "My Lu family has a glorious history. At the earliest, it was the clan of the Qi State during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. It was enfeoffed in the land of Lu. It got its surname because of the fiefdom. Later, there was civil strife in Qi, and the Tian family replaced Jiang.
, my Lu family also fled because of this, and finally settled in Huaibei, Chu land, which was still a wild land at that time, which is also the Pengcheng area of your ancestors."
Liu Yu opened his eyes wide and asked curiously: "What? Are your ancestors from Pengcheng?"
Lu Xun smiled slightly: "Jinu, I know that your family is the younger brother of Liu Bang, the emperor of Han Dynasty. After Liu Jiao, the king of Chu Yuan, his ancestral home is Pengcheng. Coincidentally, the ancestor of my Lu family is the close friend and hometown of Liu Bang, the emperor of Han Dynasty.
He was named Lu Wan. Later, Liu Bang raised his army, and Lu Wan stayed with him all his life. Finally, he became the king of Yan and guarded the northern border. It can be said that he broke the soil and sealed the territory, which was a glorious moment. "
Liu Yu suddenly laughed: "Lu Yuanlong, are you bullying me into not studying? I may not be clear about other things, but I am familiar with the struggle between Chu and Han, whether it is history books or military books. What you are talking about
Lu Wan, didn’t you later rebel against the Han and join the Huns? In the end, you died among the Huns, so why did you become your ancestor again?”
Lu Xun's face turned slightly red and said: "Since you have read this history well, you should know that the fault is not with the ancestors, but with Liu Bang after he ascended the throne and became emperor. He was too jealous and treated the old brothers who conquered the world together one by one.
Who among the old brothers who made great contributions to the founding of his country, including Han Xin, Peng Yue, and Yingbu, met a happy death? Our ancestors also saw the fate of these people and were forced to separate their own empires. They just wanted to seek stability.
, otherwise why would he, an old man over sixty years old, raise an army and rebel?"
Liu Yu sighed: "It seems that what you said makes some sense. But did your ancestors stay with the Huns?"
Lu Xun shook his head: "No, after all, the Huns are a barbarian country. It is okay to take refuge for a while, but it is impossible to live for a long time. Later, my descendants of the Lu family returned to the Han from the Huns. At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the master of Confucian classics, and at the same time
Lu Zhi, also a famous general and the great hero who pacified the Yellow Turban Army, is the ancestor of my Fanyang Lu family."
Liu Yu nodded: "I've heard of Lu Zhi. He's very famous. I didn't expect him to be the ancestor of your family. But wasn't he in Fanyang, Youzhou? Why did you come to Jingkou again?"
Lu Xun smiled slightly: "Your ancestors, Liu Yu, didn't live in the south of the Yangtze River for generations, didn't they also move from the north? During the Yongjia Rebellion, various warlords and barbarians established themselves one after another, and the Western Dynasty (Western Jin Dynasty) was destroyed.
My fifth ancestor Lu Gong, who held the post of minister, concealed his ambition and sacrificed his life to defend the last emperor of the Jin Dynasty. Finally, he was captured by the Hu army on the way to King Qin. Together with several of his sons, he died heroically. It can be regarded as defending the country with passion.
.”
Speaking of this, Lu Xun's eyes were red, his expression was solemn, and his tone became sad. Even Liu Yu, who had always listened to stories and jokes, couldn't help but feel sad. Thinking of the tragic history of the barbarians in Luchen, China, he couldn't help but feel sad.
Gritting his teeth and clenching his fists.
Lu Xun calmed down his emotions and continued: "Only Zhi Gong's eldest son, Lu Gong said, who is also my great-grandfather, survived. He successfully escaped the pursuit of the Hu people and defected to the north at that time.
Liu Kun, the Jin general who was still resisting, became his right-hand man."
Liu Yu clapped his hands suddenly: "The man should be Liu Kun, Zu Ti, in the face of national crisis, he rose up to defend his family and the country. I know what you said. Before Liu Kun finally failed, he wrote a poem, and the name of the poem is "Giving Lubie"
"Dear, what's the meaning in it? A hundred steels are made, but it turns into softness around the fingers. This is a desperate poem written by a great hero before he was cornered and about to die. Even a person like me, who is proficient in writing, will feel the same when I read it, and my clothes will be wet with tears."
Lu Xun sighed: "Don't leave Lu, as our ancestor Lu Gong said, I, the Lu family, have worked hard to protect the Jin Dynasty. Generations of people have been fighting for it, but in the end, I can't resist the general trend of the world. The Jin Dynasty is in the south.
After the crossing, they were unable to make the Northern Expedition, and the wealthy families who stayed in the north looked at Wang Shi year after year. Finally, they just sighed. In order to save the Han people in the north, they had to do something against their will in the Hu court. After all, this could still help to some extent.
Some Han Chinese in the north."
Liu Yu curled his lips disdainfully: "To put it nicely, it's not like being a slave to the barbarians. If you really want to be ambitious, you should do what the Wang family and the Xie family did, and move the family south to help the Jin Dynasty in crisis."
Lu Xun shook his head: "Liu Jinnu, don't stand and talk without hurting your back. The Wang family and the Xie family fled across the river before the Hu people occupied the north. They didn't even resist. Of course it was easy to escape, but my Lu family was
But I went north to defect to Liu Kun. After Liu Kun failed, the entire north fell into the hands of the Shizhao Empire. It was impossible for my ancestors to come back even if they wanted to. They could only stay in the Shizhao regime and wait until the Shizhao Empire fell.
I, a descendant of the Lu family, immediately took advantage of the chaos and came to the south. Isn't this loyal enough?"
Liu Yu sighed: "What happened later? Why didn't your Lu family get high officials and titles like the Wang and Xie families?"
A trace of resentment flashed in Lu Xun's eyes: "Ask the Emperor of the Jin Dynasty about this matter and ask him how he treated the northern scholars who traveled thousands of miles and risked their lives to surrender!"
