During the Northern Song Dynasty, the Central Plains was in chaos, and the people were struggling to make a living. During this period, the folklore of Yangsanbo became a gathering place for heroes. "Water Margin" tells the story of 108 heroes of Liangshan, showing their heroism in resisting oppression and fighting for justice. Among these many heroes, the image of the jade unicorn Lu Junyi is particularly prominent, he is not only outstanding in martial arts, but also has the personality charm of benevolence and righteousness, and has become the best among the heroes of Liangshan.
In the last years of the Song Dynasty, Lu Junyi, a son of a wealthy family, nicknamed Jade Qilin, was tall and handsome, strong in martial arts, and upright, and was a well-known hero inside and outside the capital. He originally lived a prosperous and stable life, until a fortuitous shuffle of fate thrust him onto an extraordinary path.
One day, Song Jiang, a good man in Liangshan, in order to strengthen the power of Liangshan, sent Zhiduoxing Wu Yong to Lu Junyi's mansion and approached Lu Junyi as a fortune teller. After some maneuvering, Wu used ingenious design to let Lu Junyi write a Tibetan poem, which became the key to the turning point of Lu Junyi's fate in the future.
Soon, because of this poem, Lu Junyi was misunderstood by the imperial court, his family was in the middle of the road, and his wife and servant Li Gu colluded with each other and betrayed him. Lu Junyi was forced to have no choice but to take his loyal servant Yan Qing and flee to Tai'an. Fate seems to play even more tricks on people, and they unfortunately fall into an ambush by Liangshan on the way, and Lu Junyi is forced to join Liangshan.
On Liangshan, Lu Junyi's martial arts and personality charm quickly won everyone's recognition and respect. Although Song Jiang had great ambitions, he knew that Lu Junyi's joining was of great significance to Liang Shan, so he proposed that Lu Junyi become Liang Shan's second in command. When Lu Junyi first arrived, he was reluctant to participate in the life of robbers in Liangshan, but after careful consideration, he learned about the chivalrous deeds of the heroes of Liangshan and decided to stay for the time being.
Lu Junyi's real rise was in a confrontation with the Liao army, and he single-handedly challenged the four major generals of the Liao State, Yelu Zongyun, Yelu Zonglin, Yelu Zonglei and Yelu Zongdian. In that fierce battle, Lu Junyi showed amazing martial arts and military talent with one enemy and four enemies, and finally defeated the Liao army and became famous in the first battle.
After this war, Lu Junyi's reputation became famous and he was known as the first master of Liangshan. He and Song Jiang jointly planned and led many battles against the official army, and each time he won the respect of everyone with his outstanding performance. And the banner of "Hebei Lu Junyi No. 1" has become a symbol of the Liangshan army, inspiring every Liangshan hero to fight for justice.
There is a time when the hero will come to an end. After the official pardon, Lu Junyi joined the imperial court with Song Jiang and others and went to the Liao State. In a battle, Lu Junyi died heroically, ending his legendary and bumpy life. Before his death, he left his last words, hoping that the world would remember his spirit of loyalty to his friends and country, not just his martial arts.
Lu Junyi's life is a heroic epic. From a son of a wealthy family who was tricked by fate, to the soul of Liang Shanbo, and then to a loyal minister who sacrificed his life for the country, his life was full of twists and contradictions, but what remained the same was his heroic nature and benevolence. Lu Junyi's story tells us that the real hero lies not only in how he started, but also in how he faced challenges and how he persevered in his beliefs in the face of wind and rain. This kind of calmness and righteousness to confront the injustice of the world is an example worth learning from in every era. In the complex arena of life, everyone can be the hero of their own destiny, as long as we are willing to uphold justice and show courage.
