Introduction to the tomb owner
Lu Su, Zi Jing, was born in Dingyuan County of Anhui Province in the Eastern Han Dynasty. At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Wu was an outstanding statesman and militarist. Wu Zhi, the annals of the Three Kingdoms, said that he had few virtues and was good at planning. His family was rich in wealth and his nature was good at giving. At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, when warlords were fighting, he gave up his family property and went to Sun Quan with Zhou Yu. When Sun Quan met with him for the first time to discuss the national policy in secret, he made the conclusion that "the Han Dynasty can not be revived, Cao Cao can not be killed, for the general's sake, only to make full use of Jiangdong to observe the world's quarrels". His views are similar to Zhuge Liang's Longzhong DUI. Before the battle of Chibi, he strongly advocated uniting Liu against Cao. During the war, he mediated in many ways to mediate the contradiction between Zhou Yu and Kong Ming, and finally helped Zhou Yu win the battle of Chibi, which laid the foundation for Sun Quan to occupy the east of the Yangtze River. After the battle of Chibi, he urged to strengthen the ally relationship with Liu Bei by taking advantage of Jingzhou and Liu Bei, increase Cao Cao's adversaries, and promote the tripartite confrontation. When Cao Cao heard that Sun Quan had borrowed land from Liu Bei, all the pens he was holding in his hand to repair books fell to the ground.
personal honor
Li Tiaoyuan, a poet of the Qing Dynasty, praised in his poem Lu Su's tomb: "if you can get Cao Gong's pen by borrowing Jing, don't despise the people in the tomb.". In 210, Zhou Yu wrote to Sun Quan on his pillow when he was critically ill in Yueyang. He strongly recommended Lu Su to take his place. He said: today, he is against Cao Cao, Liu Bei is close to the public security, the border is very close, and the people have not yet fully attached to him. Therefore, he should have a good general to guard and pacify Ba Qiu. Lu Su is resourceful and resourceful. Please let him replace me. Even if I die, I have no worries. After Zhou Yu died, Sun Quan ordered Lu Su to guard Yueyang. In Yueyang, Lu Su went to Yiyang to attend the meeting with Guan Yu alone. He explained to Guan Yu with reason and moved him with emotion. Finally, he convinced Guan Yu to agree to take Xiangjiang River as the boundary, thus establishing the boundary between Wu and Shu. In Yueyang, he stationed troops to build a city, consolidate the border defense, build a military reading tower, train generals, and caress the people of Bachu, so that the people in the war can recuperate. Therefore, Yueyang people in the past dynasties deeply engraved their virtues and regarded them as sages. They built a temple for general Lu to offer sacrifices to him. In addition, his memorial tablets are also provided in the "Sanxian Temple" and "Minghuan Temple". All these show that as long as we have done good deeds for the people sincerely, the people will never forget it.
Historical development
Lu Su's tomb is recorded in the annals of Baling county during the reign of Tongzhi and Guangxu in the Qing Dynasty. In 1889, Zhou Zhide, the magistrate of Baling County, repaired the tomb once. In 1915, when Cao Kun, a northern warlord, came to Yueyang, he had his tomb re engraved. On the stone pillars on both sides of the tombstone is carved a pair of couplets: "to help Emperor Zhu and Cao Jian, you can see them on Xun Yu; to serve Wu and Han Zhou, you have the same heart as Marquis Wu." There is a small pavilion on the top of the tomb, and a stone tablet in the center of the pavilion is engraved with an inscription written by Cao Kun: "in 1698, the 22nd year of Jian'an in the Han Dynasty, Lu Su, a water general of the eastern Wu Dynasty, died here, and baling people were buried here because of his virtue. I was in Yueyang, passing through his grave, and wanted to see him as a man, and lingered for him. There are pavilions in the old tombs, which are blasphemous and intolerable. I repair them. The inscription says: public virtue is here, death is here, and burial is here. Hoo Hoo This is the tomb of Lu Su that people saw 40 years ago. Later, the pavilion was destroyed and the stele was lost. Only the tomb ridge remained.
The tombs and pavilions were destroyed at the beginning of the cultural revolution. In order to develop tourism and restore historical sites, Yueyang Municipal People's government decided to rebuild the tomb of Lu su. In 1984, Yueyang City was rebuilt according to its original appearance. In 1956, it was listed as a cultural relic protection unit in Hunan Province. Unfortunately, there are several tombs of Lu su. Whether the tombs are true or false remains to be further studied. In 1985, it was funded by Hunan Rubber Factory, and the Yueyang cultural relics administration department was responsible for the reconstruction work, adhering to the principle of "renovating the old as the old". Its scale was restored according to the photos of Lu Su's tomb taken in the early years of the Republic of China. The tomb is 8 meters high, surrounded by stone barriers, with a large stone tablet engraved with Lu Su's biography standing in the pavilion, and a hexagonal pavilion covered with glazed tiles on the top, covering a total area of more than 800 square meters. The former Tomb of Lu Su has a large stone square gate facing east. It is about 3.5 meters high and 1.2 meters wide. There are stones directly in front of the monument. Now it is changed to the main gate in the west, with an additional archway facing Dongting Lake. It is listed in Yueyang tourist area and open to tourists.
Social evaluation
There are five tombs of Lu Su in China, which are distributed in Yueyang, Hanyang, Zhenjiang, Dantu and Jurong. He Guangyue thinks that the tomb of Lu Su in Yueyang is a legacy of the relocation tomb. "In the heat of Yueyang, Lu Su died in the dog days, so he could only send a coffin for burial temporarily to stabilize the morale of the army. In addition, Wei and Shu always harassed Jianglu, and Lu Su's coffin could not be transported back from the Yangtze River to Dongwu for burial, so there were sent tombs.". Later, Lu Shu, the son of Lu Su, moved his father's tomb to Guishan mountain in Hankou, so Guishan mountain was also known as "Lushan Mountain".
The legendary tomb of Lu Su in Yueyang is very mysterious. It is said that the huge red lacquer coffin in the tomb was hung with copper cable and iron chain. The big oil tank in front of the coffin was burning a long bright lamp, and the wall was hung with the green sword Lu Su used in his life. If the coffin falls to the ground, there will be a big fire in Yueyang. When the "Cultural Revolution" dug the air raid shelter, some people wanted to play the role of this large tomb. After accurate calculation, they dug from the north and south sides. As a result, the two groups joined forces underground, but nothing was found. In fact, the tomb of Lu Su was recorded in the annals of Baling County by Tongzhi of the Qing Dynasty. At that time, there was suspicion of "boot tomb", and some even said that it was "affiliated" by later generations. However, all these did not affect Lu Su's image of "sage" in Yueyang people's mind.
