The discovery of the Han Wen Emperor's tomb has made people refocus on this Emperor Wen more than 2,000 years ago.
Starting from the Qin Dynasty, in 2132, the 83rd dynasty feudal imperial system produced a total of 403 emperors, large and small.
Being an emperor is also a profession, high risk, high return, almost no textbooks, no opportunities for trial and error, most of them rely on understanding and experience of predecessors.
It should be said that the more the emperor goes to the back, the better it is, for example, most of the emperors of the Qing Dynasty are more qualified, because the predecessors have left a variety of positive and negative lessons, which are enough to be used as a reference.
The emperors who originally built the temple and established the sect were completely talented, and the probability of subversive errors was relatively large.
By thumb, Emperor Wen of Han was the third emperor of the Han Dynasty and the fifth emperor in history.
There were two dynasties and four emperors in front of him, Hu Hai of Qin II and Liu Ying, the Emperor hui of Han, naturally could not be compared, and the first emperor Won Zheng and Han Gaozu Liu Bang were all great figures with outstanding merits and glorious achievements.
But big people also have the disadvantages of big people, they can achieve great things and create disasters, there are always some imperfections, and the people will also suffer.
Qin Shi Huang was the most typical strongman, he unified the Six Kingdoms, but did not change the strategy of governing the country in time, and the biggest failure was the wrong choice of successor.
A large empire, fell into the hands of Hu Hai, who lacked intelligence, coupled with the vicious and deceitful Zhao Gao, the two people jointly demolished the beams of the old lady's house.
It was not only ordinary people who were unlucky, but even the Ying clan royal family was almost killed, making people seriously doubt Zhao Gao's starting point, and it was difficult to say that there was no conspiracy behind it.
Gaozu Liu Bang was known as the most powerful person and the most bitter person.
When he became emperor, he could not live in peace, he only achieved unity in form, many people were dissatisfied, there were rebellious generals everywhere, so old he had to lead the army around to extinguish the fire.
In 195 BC, the eighth year of his reign as emperor, Liu Bang, who was in his 60s, had to take his troops to fight against Yingbu.
The emperor who personally went to the battlefield at such an old age was probably no one left.
The key is to go to the battlefield and not engage in bureaucracy, and actually fight and be seriously injured.
The injury was so serious that he could not give up with peace of mind, and he had to make an "alliance with the ministers on the white horse" and let them protect Liu Hanjiangshan well, so that he could close his eyes and go west.
Liu Bang, the emperor, said it was not difficult?
Thousands of careful, Liu Bang guarded against the heroes and fierce generals, but did not defend his wife.
When his son Liu Ying became emperor, he did not have the slightest sense of existence, because the old Liu Family Lü Hou had the final say.
I have to say that the women of the old Liu family are stronger than one, Empress Lü, Empress Dou, and Empress Wang, none of which are fuel-saving lamps.
Liu Ying let his mother die of depression.
Empress Lü did not have the courage of Wu Zetian, and she did not dare to call herself emperor, so she casually held two small dolls as emperors, but history could not recognize their status.
It was not until Lü Hou's death that it was really the turn of Liu Heng, the Emperor of Han, to appear.
At this time, the founding heroes of the Great Han Dynasty were almost dead, and the rest also saw the situation clearly and could not move.
Although Liu Heng's relationship with Liu Bang's father and son is almost zero, his roots are miao hong, his age is right, his virtues match, and the vacant throne is none other than him.
In this way, Liu Heng, who had no ambitions and was free to become a king in the daiji, was asked by the ministers to ascend to the throne of the Ninth Five-Year Supreme.
There is nothing advisable about the short-lived violent Qin, the old father Liu Ji seems to be very unreliable, the brother Liu Ying also hangs an emperor name, how to be a good emperor no one knows, then grope for it yourself.
Liu Heng went to live in a bitter and cold place since he was a child, knew the suffering of the common people, and after becoming emperor, he also wanted to be frugal and simple, so that the people could rest and recuperate and live a peaceful and stable life.
Corporal punishment and inhumane torture such as sitting were abolished, the princes canceled the hukou of the capital and returned to the fiefdoms, and all localities could mint their own money, as long as they did not rebel and make trouble, everything was easy to say.
After 23 years as emperor, Liu Heng always wore rough black silk, did not decorate his own carriages and horses, and even made it very simple to build a mausoleum.
Such an emperor who does not toss and turn is really a blessing for the people of the Great Han Dynasty.
China's first rule of the world has finally come, and the rule of Wenjing began with Wen, flourished in Jing, and finally wu.
Emperor Wen's eldest grandson, Liu Che, was the first in martial arts, but he also tossed the common people enough, which is a later story.
On the whole, the first good emperor in history was none other than Emperor Wen of Han.
Latecomers who can learn Emperor Wen's fur will not do too badly.
However, these emperors who ruled inaction and rested with the people were often not respected by later generations, and they were said to be the Qin Emperor Han Wu, the Tang Emperor Song Zu, and a generation of Tianjiao.
In fact, the real benefit to the world is Emperor Wen, who is not tossed around.
