Historically, Lu Yi did exist. What is Lu Yi like in real history?
Lu Yi was born in Lushi, Pinghu, a very prominent family in the history of Ming Dynasty, and served as an official for 600 years from Sui and Tang Dynasties to Ming Dynasty. My grandfather is Xing's bodyguard, my grandmother is Emperor Jiajing's wet nurse, and my father, Liu Bing, is Lu Ting in the TV series. He grew up with Emperor Jiajing and was the supreme commander of the Royal Guards.
Lu Yi is Liu Bing's third son. The two brothers in front of him didn't live long. One died young and the other died at birth. Therefore, after the death of Liu Bing, the task of inheriting his father's title fell to Lu Yi.
He first served as the commander of the Royal Guards, and later became the commander of the Royal Guards step by step. He is the highest-ranking official of the Royal Guards and belongs to the imperial court.
Royal Guards was a very important intelligence agency in Ming Dynasty. It is directly subordinate to the emperor and can arrest anyone, including the royal family and relatives, and conduct secret trials. Can do such a job, we can see that Lu Yi is definitely a powerful role.
According to Ming History, his original wife Wu is the fifth daughter of Wu Peng, a senior official, so Yuan is just a fictional character in this summer's TV series.
It is true that the Lujia family was robbed in the finale of Under the Golden Clothes. Liu Bing offended many powerful ministers and royal relatives before his death, but after his death, he was blamed by Ming, confiscated his family property and demoted to the people.
It was not until he succeeded to the throne that the family was rehabilitated with the help of Zhang and others. It can be said that Lu Yi's life was successful because of his father Liu Bing and failed because of his father Liu Bing.
