In the early Western Han Dynasty, there was such a strange emperor. He does not love beauties or precious treasures. He has a sufficient treasury in his 23 years in power, but he never repaired gardens and did not increase vehicle honors. As an emperor, he has two sleeves and breeze. He wears straw sandals woven on his feet. When his dragon robe is torn, he is patched. He is the protagonist of the Tomb of the Great Tomb in Jiangcun, Xi'an, Shaanxi- Hanwen Emperor Liu Heng. Previously, people thought that his tomb was at Phoenix Mouth in Bailuyuan, Xi'an, Shaanxi Province. However, Liu Heng’s was found in Jiangcun Grand Tomb on December 14.
Life is short. If Liu Heng did not become an emperor by accident, there would only be one more mediocre king in Chinese history, but a generation of Mingjun would be lost. So how did Liu Heng become the Emperor of Hanwen?
Liu Heng's mother Bo Ji , although she is not glamorous, she is also a good choice. She was originally the concubine of Wei Wangbao . After Wei Wang was defeated, she entered the harem of Liubang . Bo Ji entered Liu Bang's harem and did not imagine all kinds of pets. On the contrary, after Liu Bang pampered Bo Ji once, he forgot to do so, and specially favors Mrs. Qi and other beauties. This time Bo Ji got pregnant and gave birth to our actor, Liu Heng. Although Liu Bang was basically missing in Liu Heng's growth, Bo Ji has always taught Liu Heng to be low-key and tolerant, teach him to do nothing and let nature take its course, because only in this way can he survive in the harem. BC On June 1, 196, Liu Bang died. All the beauties once favored by Liu Bang were killed by Queen Lu , Madam Qi was made into a human being, Liu Ruyi was poisoned to death, and Liu Bang’s harem was cleared by Queen Lu after his death.
In fact, Empress Lu also wanted to kill Liu Heng. Once, Empress Lu asked Liu Heng to enter the palace in the name of a discussion. After seeing through the trick, Liu Heng replied: "I am willing to guard the border for his aunt." This border refers to Taiyuan, Shanxi, which was a desolate frontier fortress during the Western Han Dynasty. In addition, Bo Ji usually respects Lu Heng very much, and Liu Heng’s wife is a woman from the Lu family, so Lu Heng doesn’t have to worry about Liu Heng making trouble. So Liu Heng and his mother Bo Ji stayed in on behalf of the country.
A generation of emperors
The opposite of the dynasty is the Xiongnu , so they are often harassed by the Huns. When Liu Heng was still young, Bo Ji took him away from local disputes. Bo Ji taught well and often worked in weaving by herself, which set a good example for Liu Heng. Liu Heng's character is more kind, and he is also cautious and prudent in dealing with others. Under his governance, Dai Guo began to gradually become rich. However, at this time, Chang'an City was embarrassing and bloody. After Han Huidi Liu Ying died of depression, Empress Lü set up three young emperors one after another, and took power to dominate the Liu family's descendants. Liu Heng is located in a remote area, and Raoxing escaped the hands of Queen Lu.
Liu family was suppressed by the Lu family until 180 BC, when Lu Hou died of a serious illness. The Lu family was killed by Liu Bang's old ministry Chen Ping Zhou Bo, and the Lu family forces were uprooted. After the court civil strife, the problem of the throne was resolved. Anyone related to the Lu family is excluded. At this time Liu Zhang and Liu Chang are the most prestigious, but Liu Chang was raised by Queen Lu, and Liu Zhang’s wife is the daughter of Queen Lu and holds a heavy hand. . Everyone knows the truth of the rabbit death dog cooking, so these veterans turned their attention to Liu Heng, who was acting in the country.The humble concubine Ji and the unfavorable prince will not pose a threat to them. As for his Queen Lu and the four children, they died one after another within three months.
At this time, Liu Heng was 23 years old. He was not ecstatic about the throne that suddenly fell on his head. Instead, he felt like a boulder was crushed in his heart. So after discussing with Bo Ji, he first confirmed the authenticity of the matter before leaving for Chang'an City. When he was approaching Chang'an City, he sent his uncle Bo Zhao to investigate. Only then did I really believe that he really wanted to make him the emperor.
Maybe when Liu Heng was made emperor, Zhou Bo and Chen Ping did not even consider whether Liu Heng had the ability to govern the country. After Liu Heng took office, he showed extraordinary political talent. After Liu Heng succeeded to the throne, the country was still poor, so he implemented the policy of recuperating and rejuvenating, and many times free land rent. Repelled the Huns from outside, but never took the initiative to attack and did not go deep into the desert. For South Vietnam is also mainly to appease.
Liu Heng reigned for 23 years, Guotai Min'an. A life of frugality also requires a thin burial after death, so this time Liu Heng Ba tomb is not as rich as the funeral objects of other emperors.
But he is remembered by generations.
