From 19 12 to 1926, Lu Xun worked in the Ministry of Education for more than 14 years, which was regarded as his "stain" by his opponent and critic Chen Xiying. Although Lu Xun argued with Chen Xiying, he still couldn't get rid of the criticism behind him. Lu Xun's officialdom experience has also become a history that researchers intentionally or unintentionally avoid.

In people's impression, Lu Xun and Geng Jie, as standard-bearers in the literary world, are stubborn, neither tolerant nor uncompromising. His article is a spear, not a dagger, just like him. You may not imagine that the same Lu Xun, from 19 12 to 1926, spent more than ten years in the office, trying to play the role of a conscientious civil servant.

Extended data:

In Lu Xun's personal life, two things hit him hard. One is his married life, and the other is the disharmony with his younger brother Zhou Zuoren. Lu Xun and Zhou Zuoren have been reluctant to talk about this matter to others, which makes it even more confusing and becomes the most puzzling event in the history of modern literature in China.

Over the years, the research community has formed three views on this: economic theory, disrespect theory and family dispute theory. "Economic theory" holds that Zhou Zuoren's wife Yu Taixin spends too much money, which often causes the family to make ends meet, and finally leads to a gap between brothers. People think that Lu Xun had an affair with him, which led to the discord between the Zhou brothers.

It is generally believed that the dissatisfaction of the Zhou family led to the tension between brothers. As far as denying that "brother discord" is due to ideological differences, these three views are consistent. But beyond that, academic research has basically not made much progress, and the three viewpoints can't really convince readers.
