Liu Xun, whose original name was Liu Bingyi, was the great-grandson of Liu Che, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and the grandson of Liu Yuxin.
Shortly after Liu Xun was born, he encountered the famous "curse of witchcraft".
His grandfather Liu Ju committed suicide after defeat. His biological mother Wei Ruyun was forced to hang herself. Liu Ju's concubines, son, daughter-in-law and others were all killed.
Only the hungry Liu Xun saved his life and was imprisoned, thus becoming the only emperor in Chinese history to have been imprisoned.
After Liu Fuling, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, came to the throne, he granted a general amnesty to the whole country, and Liu Xun saw the light of day again.
After Liu Xun was released from prison, Taiji, Tingwei's supervisor, sent him to the hometown of his grandmother Shi Liangdi. Her grandmother was very sympathetic to the orphan, regardless of her old age and frailty.
Taiji also promptly reported the news of Liu Xunshe to Ye Ting, creating conditions for Liu Xun to ascend the throne in the future.
Because he has gone through many hardships, Liu Xun has been diligent and thrifty since he was a child, has a cheerful personality, and has a chivalrous demeanor.
After the death of Zhao Di, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, the powerful minister Huo Guangli made Liu He, king of Changyi, emperor.
When He Yi came to the throne, he placed close associates in an attempt to get rid of Huo Guang's control.
He was accused of violating protocol and was deposed within a month.
Then, Huo Guang welcomed Liu Xun, a civilian with a weak foundation, as emperor.
At that time, his experience won widespread sympathy, and the prophecy that "Sun's disease has become a reality" was a manifestation of the social trend that people yearned for.
Huo Guang did not dare to have contrary expectations based on what the people wanted.
In August 74 years ago, the eighteen-year-old Liu Xun officially ascended the throne, that is, Emperor Xuan of Han Dynasty.
Huo Guang assisted Han Emperor Xuan for 6 years, plus 13 years with Han Emperor Zhao Di, and nearly 20 years of emperor career.
He devoted himself wholeheartedly to it, and most of the time the country was in a stable and prosperous state.
Many of Huo Guang's measures followed one principle: recuperate and recuperate, and hide wealth among the people.
The long-term coherent policy is like a dose of mild Chinese medicine, slowly recuperating Dahan's body, which was deficient due to the militarism of Emperor Wu of Liang.
In the past 20 years, it has gradually achieved another prosperous situation after the "Wenzhi Shanshui", which is known as the "Zhao Xuan Zhongxing" in history.
Understand, Liu Xun, since Huo Guang has the ability to make himself successful, he also has the ability to make himself irreversible.
Liu Xun respected and feared him.
Every time Huo Guang stood next to him, Liu Xun felt very uncomfortable, as if someone had stabbed his back with a needle.
This is where the idiom “eyesore” comes from.
This allusion vividly summarizes the complex relationship between the monarch and his ministers.
In fact, if the monarch is really afraid of you, it is not a good thing for a loyal minister who has no ambition to usurp power.
This also paved the way for the destruction of the Huo family after Huo Guang's death.
Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and Emperor Xuan suffered a lot, and he understood the sufferings of the people very well.
He was clearly an ambitious and shrewd emperor.
In order to protect himself, Liu Xun had to keep a low profile. He had to remain silent and obey Huo Guang.
The Book of Han said: "The light of the Later Yuan Dynasty, holding a thousand opportunities and ascending the throne, is a return to politics. In terms of convenience, everything is to drop the white light first, and then beat the prince. Every time he appears in court, he is vain and smug, and he is very polite."
Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Emperor Xuan, respected Huo Guang in every aspect and did not want to take advantage of his power.
Huo Guang tentatively proposed "returning power", but he humbly refused to accept it.
He asked the ministers to first give the memorial to Huo Guang for reading and then read it out; every time he went to court, he had to stop smiling to show courtesy.
In addition, Liu Xun also gained Huo Guang's favor by adding the seal of Huo Guang Food City to reward Huo Guang's descendants.
However, like any successful politician in history, Huo Guang did not jump out of the circle of the times, could not get rid of the shackles of the idea of ????guangzongyaozu, and could not get rid of the tradition of being the leader and having descendants as kings.
