During the Three Kingdoms period, Lu Xun was a famous general, he killed Guan Yu one after another, won the Battle of Yiling, the Battle of Shiting, and guarded Jingzhou for many years. As the minister of the society of Eastern Wu, Sun Quan really trusts him?
Lu Xun comes from the family family Wu County Lu family, which is a big family with a long history. Lu Lie, the ancestor of the Lu clan of Wu County, served as the county magistrate of Wu County in the early years of the Western Han Dynasty, and his descendants have lived in Wu County since then, but he did not immediately grow into a great family. Sun Quan's elder brother, Sun Ce, suppressed many great clans, especially the Lu family, during his conquest of Jiangdong. Lu Xun's biological father died early, and he followed his grandfather Lujiang to guard Lu Kang since he was a child. Lu Kang and Yuan Shu were at odds, Yuan Shu sent Sun Ce to fight Lu Kang, and in the end, after holding on for two years, Lujiang was still captured, and Lu Kang also died because of it.
But what made Lu Xun most helpless was that after Sun Quan succeeded to the throne, the Sun family became more prosperous, and they had no way to overthrow Sun Quan. Of course, in order to consolidate his power, Sun Quan also had to reuse the Jiangdong Shi clan. Sun Quan and Lu Xun had to guard against each other, but also had to rely on each other, after all, China was not unified at that time, and they also had common enemies. Lu Xun himself is very talented and a representative of the Lu family, and Sun Quan doesn't want to completely tear his face with these Jiangdong clans, so he welcomes Lu Xun very much and sends Lu Xun to attack Shanyue. During this period of time, Lu Xun showed very good military talent, so Sun Quan paid more and more attention to him, in order to show his trust in Lu Xun, Sun Quan directly married his niece to Lu Xun, which means to tell Lu Xun that since then, the grudge between Sun and Lu has been written off, and everyone is a family!
After Lu Xun joined the Sun regime, he made many military exploits. In 219, Lu Xun plotted for Lü Meng and attacked Jingzhou. In 221, Liu Bei decided to attack Wu, but the early stage was like a bamboo, and the Wu army was completely unable to resist. Later, Lu Xun adopted the strategy of holding out, ordering his subordinates to withdraw from the mountains and not to fight without authorization, successfully dragging down the Shu army, and using the fire to turn defeat into victory. In 228, Lu Xun defeated Cao Xiu, a famous general of Cao Wei, in the Battle of Shiting, captured more than 10,000 Wei troops, captured 10,000 oxen, horses, mules, donkeys, and carts, and directly Cao Xiu to death. Lu Xun has basically become a famous general in a hundred battles and is the humerus minister of Eastern Wu.
But Sun Quan didn't trust Lu Xun very much. Sun Quan wants to unify the world, but these Jiangdong clans have been dragging their feet. Although Lu Xun helped Sun Quan win many battles, in Sun Quan's eyes, Lu Xun was still a threat. After all, the Sun group is a foreign group, so Sun Quan instigated the fight between the crown prince Sun He and Sun Ba, the king of Lu, in his later years, and the Jiangdong Shi clan was divided into two groups, one group supported Sun He, and the other group supported Sun Ba. Sun Quan wanted to take the opportunity to eradicate a group of Jiangdong scholars, but he didn't expect Lu Xun to actually support the crown prince Sun He, and Sun Quan was afraid that he would be forced to abdicate. After the relationship between Sun Quan and Sun He's father and son deteriorated, Sun He's envoy hid under Sun Quan's bed and overheard Sun Quan and Yang Zhu talking about wanting to take Sun Ba as his prince. Sun He was afraid, so he secretly summoned his confidant Lu Yin and asked him to take the opportunity to go to Wuchang to ask his patriarch Lu Xun to come forward to defend himself. And the crown prince Fu Wucang also exchanged news with Lu Xun several times. Lu Xun listened to the words of the two, repeatedly stated the difference between the concubines and the concubines, and asked to go to Beijing to meet in person. Sun Quan found out that the forbidden Chinese language was leaked, and successively put Yang Zhu, Lu Yin, and Wu Cang into prison for interrogation. Although Lu Xun was not immediately questioned, he was also sent to write a letter to reproach him for inquiring about the secrets of the palace. In prison, Yang Zhu confessed to Lu Xun's 20 pieces of incriminating evidence, and Lu Yin did not say a word about Sun He's existence. Lu Xun was very angry and finally died of depression.
