Emperor Wudi of han was a majestic emperor in Chinese history, during his reign, the Han Dynasty conquered the north and conquered the north, opening up the territory, no one was a rival of the Han Dynasty, even the invincible Turks were almost killed by the Han Wudi Emperor. The achievements of Emperor Wudi of Han's martial arts are worthy of recognition, but behind the prestige of Emperor Wudi of Han is the suffering of the people of the Han Dynasty.
During the reign of Wen Jing, the Han Dynasty was powerful, the people were rich, and there was too much grain in the granary to eat. However, after decades of conquest by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the Han Dynasty's finances could not make ends meet, and the army's salaries were difficult to sustain. In order to raise military salaries, Emperor Wudi of the Han Dynasty levied a lot of money and set up a clever name, and even many rich people were forced to go bankrupt, not to mention ordinary people.
Where there was exploitation, there was resistance, and the oppression of the people by Emperor Wudi of the Han Dynasty aroused the people's indignation, and many people had no way out and were forced to rebel, and for a time the domestic smoke was everywhere and the turmoil was unstable. In response to this situation, Emperor Wu of Han appointed a large number of embroidered imperial histories to pacify the displaced people and suppress them if necessary.
The embroidered imperial history is equivalent to the Chincha ministers of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and their official positions are not too high, but their power is huge. After their arrival, many embroidered imperial historians indiscriminately sent troops to suppress the rebellious people, and many innocent people were also slaughtered by them to fulfill their military merits.
At that time, there was an embroidered imperial history named Wang He, who was completely different from his colleagues. Wang He was born in Xiangmendi, and his father was a famous scholar of the Western Han Dynasty and was highly respected. Under the guidance of his father, Wang He was virtuous, kind in character, and benevolent and generous. At a time when many colleagues were frantically slaughtering the people to compete for merit, Wang He's heart was like a knife. Wang He knew that many people were cornered in rebellion, and he was unwilling to wave the butcher's knife at the people. So Wang He beckoned the displaced people to negotiate with the rebellious people and make them surrender. Some people have already committed crimes, but Wang He has not reported them, helping them to conceal them.
With the help of Wang He, tens of thousands of people escaped the catastrophe. However, Wang He's behavior naturally caused dissatisfaction among others, and some people impeached Wang He to Emperor Wu of Han, saying that he had dereliction of duty, and even more that he had an affair with the anti-thief. Emperor Wu of Han was furious when he learned of this, and he immediately deposed Wang He. However, Wang He, who was deposed, was not depressed, and he once said to the people around him: "I have heard that thousands of people have descendants, and there are more than 10,000 people who live in my life, and the future generations will be happy!" ”
Wang He's words were more of a comfort to himself and an encouragement to others, but what he didn't know was that his casual words were actually realized in the future.
After being deposed, Wang He returned to his hometown, but what awaited him was not respect, but exclusion and suppression. Wang He's hometown of Dongpingling has many famous and prestigious clans, and the best of these clans is to fall into the well. After the loss of power of the Wang family, the local clan continued to exclude Wang He, and the life of the Wang family was difficult.
In the end, Wang He couldn't bear it, and he moved his family to Yuancheng, Wei County, which was the place where he once appeased the displaced people, and his reputation here was very high, so after he came here, the Wang family gradually recovered. Wang He had two sons, both of whom talked about not being a material to be made, among whom Wang Ban was idle and indulged in beauty on weekdays, and his wives and concubines were numerous. The other embroidered imperial historians laughed at Wang He and said that his descendants were not useful.
However, no one expected that Wang Zhengjun, the daughter of Wang Ban, would marry into the Eastern Palace of the Crown Prince and become an empress. Subsequently, the Wang family rose rapidly, and the power fell to the opposition. Many of the sons of the Wang family entered the court, and the most famous of them was Wang Mang. Wang Mang's ability was outstanding, and with the support of Wang Zhengjun, he finally seized the Han family's world, established a new dynasty, and established a new dynasty on behalf of the Han Dynasty.
