There are many records of Zhou Yu in history books, and he lived in the Three Kingdoms era and became a great hero in the hearts of many people. Many people praised Zhou Yu, not only because his plan was excellent, but also because he himself was relatively handsome. Zhou Yu received the attention of Sun Quan because he helped Sun Quan achieve a great cause in Jiangnan, and his official position was very high, but Zhou Yu was very short-lived, and only lived to the age of 36 before he died.
Zhou Yu has a total of three children, two of whom are sons and one is a daughter. Zhou Yu's eldest son is called Zhou Xun, Zhou Xun is very popular with Sun Quan like Zhou Yu, and posterity says that Zhou Xun inherited Zhou Yu's general style, but they have a regrettable common point, that is, they also died young. Because Sun Quan loved Zhou Xun very much, he married his eldest daughter Sun Luban to him. Zhou Yu's second son was called Zhou Yin, and Zhou Yin was actually very popular with Sun Quan in the early days, but he had a high merit in the court with his father Zhou Yu, so he became very proud and indulged in wine. Later, he was demoted to Jiangxi because he verbally confronted Sun Quan and provoked Sun Quan's anger.
But later many ministers wrote to sun quan to forgive him for the sake of his father, Zhou Yu. Sun Quan thought about his relationship with Zhou Yu and forgave Zhou Yin's faults, but at this time, Zhou Yin just died of illness. Zhou Yu's only daughter was married to Sun Quan's son, and she was also the crown prince. It can be seen from Sun Quan's placement of Zhou Yu's three children that Sun Quan still attaches great importance to Zhou Yu's children, but unfortunately, in addition to his daughter, the other two sons died young like their father. Later generations speculated that it was likely that Zhou Yu had a family genetic history, so it was relatively early that both sons died.
When Zhou Yin died, his descendants took root in Ji'an, Jiangxi, and those who liked Zhou Runfa may understand that Zhou Runfa's family background was actually a descendant of Zhou Yu, and that he was also a descendant of Zhou Yu. But many people do not know that in addition to zhou yu's descendants, in addition to the current well-known big star Zhou Runfa, there is also a very famous writer, we can often see his name in textbooks, he is the modern writer and thinker Mr. Lu Xun.
In fact, Lu Xun is just a pen name, and his original name is Zhou Shuren. Zhou Yu's sixty-third generation descendant was called Zhou Baiquan, and in order to better understand the family history, he collected a large number of genealogies, and finally determined that Lu Xun and Zhou Runfa were both descendants of Zhou Yu, and Lu Xun was the sixty-first generation descendant of Zhou Yu. In this way, Zhou Yu's descendants are very good.
