How will future generations commemorate Lu Xiufu
Gongfang Ancestral Hall
In the Ming Dynasty, Lu Zhonglie Gongfang was built on Yancheng West Street, and a monument to the hometown of Lu Gong, Prime Minister of the Song Dynasty, was erected on Confucian Street. Inscribed on it is Gu Zhong of Haiguo. The monuments built in the memorial hall have been destroyed by many wars. However, the Lu Zhonglie Ancestral Hall built on Confucian Street in Yancheng in the 10th year of the Jiajing reign of the Ming Dynasty (1531 AD) still exists and has been restored for people to pay their respects. It is a provincial key cultural relic protection unit.
Cemetery replacement
"Sanhe Town Chronicles" stated that after Lu Xiufu threw himself into the sea and died for his country, his body floated to the seaside, was picked up and buried in Xinhui Second City ( That is now Yicheng Village, Duhu Town, Taishan City). After the Yuan Dynasty was overthrown, around 1370 in the early Ming Dynasty, someone built a solemn tomb for Lu Xiufu here, with stone horses and lions placed in front of the tomb. There is also a house built next to the tomb and a tombkeeper's house. It is said that Ercheng Village was developed by the original tombkeepers. [18]
The tomb was later destroyed. "Sanhe Town Chronicles" records: Around the middle of the Qing Dynasty, Lu Xiufu's descendants struggled to restore the old tomb but were unable to find it, so they decided to find a geomantic treasure land to build a tomb. So we chose to rebuild Lu Xiufu's tomb on the "Ma's Tongue" on Mashan Mountain in Lian'an, Sanhe Town. The tomb is made of earth, facing east. The tombstone is 78 cm high and 44 cm wide. The tombstone is made of granite. It is engraved on the tomb of Lord Zuofu of the Song Dynasty Zuozhu, the posthumous title of Xiufu, Zhongzhen Lufujun, and the inscription is "Sacrifice to the Sun" Zu, Jinquan, etc. were rebuilt.
"Kaiping County Chronicle" also records: There is an ancient tomb at Ma's tongue, Mashan, Dongshan Town, Dongshan Town, this city (county), where Lu Xiufu, the left prime minister at the end of the Southern Song Dynasty, was buried. The tomb is a mound tomb, facing west to east, 5.1 meters long and 4 meters wide. There is a granite tombstone 78 centimeters long and 44.5 centimeters wide on the front of the tomb. The inscription reads: "The tombs of Lu Xiufu, the prime minister of the Zuozhu Kingdom of the Song Dynasty, posthumously named Zhongzhen Lufu" and other 17 words.
