Preface
We all know that the ancients liked to worship their ancestors when they were doing some things, and there were some well-known figures in history.
The people they worship are different in each line, for example, the underworld worships Guan Yu, the Qinglou worships Lu Dongbin, and so on, why do they worship these people? Is there anything special about this?
Why does the underworld worship Guan Yu?
In fact, in the past, the so-called underworld was not the underworld we think about now, the former underworld was used to describe the Mo family.
Why is there such a saying? It turns out that in the school founded by Mozi, everyone's face is black and yellow, hence the name.
Many of the people in the Mohist school come from all walks of life, and everyone knows that what the Mohists support is "love and love" and "non-justice", which is what we call peace.
At that time, some countries wanted to buy weapons from the Mo family, but the Mo family also had a "bottom line", that is, not to sell weapons to those who loved war.
There is also the fact that they are very respectful of helping others and uniting internally, and when the people encounter difficulties, the Mo family will also try their best to do what they can, so the Mo family quickly made its own reputation at that time.
So the underworld at that time was actually a positive image, and Guan Yu happened to be the embodiment of loyalty, and more importantly, Guan Yu's combat effectiveness was also very strong, so it was very normal for people in the underworld to worship Guan Yu.
When many people watch underworld movies or TV series, they will always find that those gangsters will be very "righteous" to their own people, which is why people in the modern underworld worship Guan Yu.
Why did the eunuchs worship Yue Fei?
Everyone also knows that eunuchs, that is, eunuchs, are unique products of feudal society, so why does there exist such a group of eunuchs?
This is mainly because the power of the imperial power was too great at that time, and the eunuchs were only the product of the imperial power, because the emperor needed some people to serve or do some heavy work in the palace.
However, to a large extent, women's physical strength is not as strong as that of men, but there are too many concubines in the harem, and the emperor is afraid that those concubines will have an affair with some men, so he came up with such a solution.
In the society at that time, although eunuchs were able to serve by the side of concubines and emperors, they were not completely "sound" people, and many people actually looked down on eunuchs at that time.
After a man becomes a eunuch, he can basically only spend time in the palace in the future, because if the outside is removed, all people will look down on them, and the outside society will not have their living environment.
However, there are actually huge benefits to following the emperor, the emperor knows the weakness of this group, and when the emperor does something, he will give some rights to the eunuchs.
After a long time, the eunuch also became a force, and by the time of the Ming Dynasty, the strength of the eunuch reached an unprecedented strength, but the emperor absolutely did not allow some unstable factors to exist.
The eunuchs also knew that in the imperial city, if they wanted to go steadily, they had to rely on the emperor, and in order to make the emperor feel at ease with themselves, the eunuchs chose to worship Yue Fei.
Because the Ming Dynasty admired Yue Fei the most, Yue Fei, as a famous general in the Northern Song Dynasty, treated his country the most "loyal", and what the emperor wanted was precisely this trait.
It is not so much that the eunuchs worship Yue Fei and are convinced, but it is better to say that they are using this behavior to cover up some of their own purposes, but there are not no good people among the eunuchs, such as Zheng He......
Why do tomb robbers worship Cao Cao?
Cao Cao can be regarded as the ancestor of the tomb robbery world, many people say that Cao Cao is a hero in troubled times, but he can earn a place in the chaotic Three Kingdoms, and Cao Cao is also very powerful.
After all, for the other two forces at that time, Cao Cao's background was indeed a little unsightly, Cao Cao's father was adopted by a eunuch named Cao Teng at that time, so Cao Cao was also regarded as a eunuch.
After becoming a force, Cao Cao also had hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, but in the troubled times, these soldiers and horses needed a lot of money and grain to maintain.
So Cao Cao thought of a solution, that is, "tomb robbery", you know, some princes and nobles will have a lot of burials when they die, which also provides Cao Cao with some opportunities.
So Cao Cao searched for such capable people all over the country and formed a team, and those people were also known as "Touching the Golden Captain", so some tomb robbers always had to pay homage to Cao Cao before carrying out their actions.
After stealing so many tombs, in fact, Cao Cao was also afraid that his tomb would be stolen, so when Cao Cao died, he set up a lot of "fake tombs" just to "confuse the public".
However, some people feel that Cao Cao is the ancestor of the tomb robbery world and was compiled by later generations, because Cao Cao could not do these things so blatantly.
Why does Qinglou worship Lu Dongbin?
In ancient society, a woman's status was inferior to that of a man, and if this woman fell into the dust, it would be almost impossible for her to get rid of the land of fireworks in her life.
The lifelong wish of many Qinglou women is to get rid of their "ninth-rate" identity, but for them, the degree of difficulty is equivalent to that of the sky.
Because after the Qinglou women earn money, they need to hand over the big head to the people above, and only a small part of them can stay on them.
It would be a good thing if someone ransomed them, but ordinary ordinary people were not willing to accept their identity at all, not to mention that they did not have enough money.
If it's a rich person, it's fine, but because of their former status, they can never be the "justifiable" hostess of the family, but this ending can't be better than other endings.
Because other people are either abandoned when they are aging, or they continue to move forward on the road of the lower ninth class by virtue of their many years of relationship.
In their painful lives, they also yearn for someone who can look at them without looking at them in a different light, and Lu Dongbin is just such a person.
For the women of the Qinglou, instead of disliking their status, he was very sympathetic to the situation of the women of the Qinglou and the injustice of the treatment they suffered.
There are some Qinglou women who have also changed their lives under Lu Dongbin's enlightenment, so in the minds of which Qinglou women, Lu Dongbin's position is irreplaceable.
