The puppet in people's eyes - Emperor Xian of Han Liu Xie actually reigned for 31 years, surpassing most of the mighty emperors in Chinese history. The powerful ministers under his command were all fierce and evil, Dong Zhuo , Li Jue , Cao Cao ..., and eventually died in front of him.
No power to tie a chicken, no power in his body. How did he do it? This question is indeed puzzling. Looking at a few details, you may find some clues.
Dong Zhuo has a counselor Li Ru , who is responsible for the abdication Hongnong King Liu Bian, who was later ordered to poison Liu Bian to death. This kind of person should have returned with Dong Zhuo, but he turned out to be a fish that missed the net.
Wait until the Wang Yun was killed by Dong Zhuo's general Li Jue, and Li Ru appeared again. For the sake of his former colleagues and in order to cultivate his own power, Li Jue forcibly asked Emperor Xian of Han Liu Xie to grant Li Ru the title of Shizhong. According to common sense, Liu Xie could only nod and said yes, and there was no other choice.
However, Liu Xie refused sternly, which is understandable because Li Ru was the murderer who killed Liu Bian and killed his brother's enemy. Strangely, Li Jue was helpless and silently accepted Liu Xie's attitude. Liu Xie, the puppet emperor, was obviously not at the mercy of others.
Liu Xie was only 11 years old at that time, but his opponent Li Jue was a more rude and cruel warlord than Dong Zhuo. To do this, it requires not only courage, but also means and skills. Obviously, in front of a group of powerful officials who killed people without blinking, we seem to be weak Liu Xie has good survival skills.
And as you grow older, Liu Xie's skills will definitely increase day by day. You can also get some advantage against Cao Cao, who is both cruel and cunning. Otherwise, how could a person who longed for the world like Cao Cao could endure it for more than twenty years until he endured himself to death and Liu Xie was still on the throne of emperor.
Let’s talk about the second detail. After Liu Xie abdicated, he continued to retain the style and treatment of the emperor and could still have a good ending. This is simply a miracle. How many emperors who abdicated and gave way to the country will not be killed? Not poisoned?
So, some people suspect that Liu Xie’s abdication was actually a perfect deal. Who's dealing with whom? Liu Xie and Cao Pi transaction. Liu Xie wisely took advantage of the opportunity when Cao Pi and Cao Zhi fought for power and throne, betting on Cao Pi with the throne, and exchanged for peace for the rest of his life.
Of course, it can be imagined that Liu Xie should still have cards to play, otherwise with Cao Pi's temperament, he could turn against others at any time. This further proves that Liu Xie, a puppet emperor, has achieved his level and style!
When Liu Xie died, the emperor had been replaced by Cao Pi's son Cao Rui . Cao Rui brought his ministers to mourn himself, and cried very sadly. He used the emperor's ritual specifications to bury Liu Xie, and the tomb was called " Chanling ". Although there is a word Zen, it is still a tomb after all.
Cao Rui's memorial to Liu Xie, there is a sentence in it praising Emperor Xian of Han for "a hundred virtues and a hundred kings, and a merit in Songyue". His gratitude is beyond words.
When the puppet emperor is Liu Xie, the emperor of Han Xian, it is worth his life. Dong Zhuo, Li Jue, Cao Cao, Cao Pi... I have to say that Liu Xie is a master!
