Tracing other people’s ancestors and digging other people’s ancestral graves reach the same goal by different routes, both of which hope to get the information and wealth of other people’s ancestors. One difference is that tracing other people’s ancestors is to obtain spiritual wealth in the form of genetic code, while digging other people’s ancestral graves is purely to obtain material wealth.
Obtaining the genetic code of Liu Bowen’s family is not so difficult. We can easily trace back to his 11th ancestor Liu Huaizhong in the annals of history, but this is also the limit, and we can no longer trace back. From the eleventh ancestor Liu Huaizhong to the seventh ancestor Liu Guangshi, Liu Bowen’s family was in the era of “passing on the family by martial arts”. Years later, Liu Bowen still clearly remembers that spring afternoon when his father unfolded the family tree in front of him. The family tree shone yellow on his father’s solemn and proud face. Liu Da did not directly into the topic, but first to a prologue: “Our ancestors of the old Liu family is abundant people.”. Do you know whose hometown Fengpei is? The hometown of the big fellow founding emperor Liu bang, ah, and just we also surnamed Liu. Therefore, we must have a history with Han Gaozu. Liu Bowen bypassed his father Liu Kui’s shining eyes to look at the family tree, which did not have the name of “Liu Bang”.
Liu Bowen came to look for Liu Da’s eyes again, hoping that he could give a DC-DC converter. Liu Da found Liu Bowen waiting for his eyes, he explained: “This is normal.”. From the Western Han Dynasty to the Northern Song Dynasty, more than a thousand years, during which there was chaos in the Three Kingdoms, the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the Five Hu and Sixteen Kingdoms, the Sui and Tang Dynasties and the Five Dynasties, only a few days of peace? Therefore, our family tree was blank before the Northern Song Dynasty. After the Northern Song Dynasty, the big shots of our family sprang up like bamboo shoots after a spring rain. He is pointing to a name: “This, it is Liu Huaizhong of ancestor of your 11 generation, that can be the character that goes down in history.” Father Liu did not lie. Liu Huaizhong served as a senior military officer on the national defense line in the western part of the Northern Song Dynasty. At the beginning of the Western Xia War, Liu Huaizhong was a war advocate and died in a battle with the Western Xia. Liu Bowen’s tenth and ninth ancestors served as senior military officers on the western national defense line of the Northern Song Dynasty and withstood the test of long-term war.
Liu Yanqing, the eighth ancestor of Liu Bowen, and Liu Guangshi, the seventh ancestor of Liu Bowen, raised the family honor by a large margin. Liu Yanqing’s highest position was Deputy Commander-in-Chief of the Northern Song Dynasty Cavalry Corps (Deputy Commander of the Ma Army), who had followed Tong Guan, a great eunuch of the Northern Song Dynasty, to exterminate Fang La’s anti-government armed forces. During the disaster of Jingkang, Liu Yanqing was ordered to defend Kaifeng. After the city was breached by the Jin army, Liu Yanqing died heroically.
