Emperor Xuan of Han was also the only emperor in Chinese history to have suffered imprisonment before taking the throne. The reason why he became emperor was caused by an "accident".
In April of the first year of Yuan Ping (74 BC), emperor Zhao of Han, who was only twenty-one years old, suddenly fell seriously ill, and died suddenly in Weiyang Palace due to ineffective medical treatment.
Emperor Han Zhao died, and who would inherit the throne became a problem. If we follow the custom that Liu Bang set down in those years, it must be the son of Emperor Han Zhao to become emperor. But the problem was that until the death of Emperor Han Zhao, there was no son and a half son in his harem.
Emperor Han Zhao had no queen, so the successor to the throne naturally had to choose another "Xianjun" from the sons of Emperor Wu of Han. However, Emperor Wu of Han's only two surviving sons, Liu Dan the Prince of Yan, was forced to commit suicide by committing his own sins, and Liu Xu, the King of Guangling, was also a "unable to support Adou", who was excluded from the emperor's choice by Emperor Wu of Han that year, and Huo Guang, the "regent" in this dynasty, naturally would not put him on the emperor's throne again. Therefore, the emperor's candidates were selected from the grandsons of Emperor Wu of Han, that is, from the "nephews" of Emperor Zhao of Han.
Huo Guang was first liu he, the son of Liu He, the fifth son of Emperor Wu of Han, Liu He the Prince of Changyi, but Liu He, because of his absurdity, had just arrived in the capital and did several things that undermined the "imperial prestige", and Huo Guang, under the pressure of public opinion, had to summon the ministers of the court to depose Liu He.
After abolishing Liu He, who was "faint and absurd", it seems that the grandchildren of Emperor Wu of Han are also "no successors", and then they can only be selected from the great-grandchildren of Emperor Wu of Han. At this time, Huo Guang gave full play to the practice of democracy and conducted a "sea election" with the intention of electing a virtuous monarch who was "virtuous and virtuous."
Liu Yiji was the grandson of Liu Zhao, the Crown Prince. At that time, Liu Zhao, the crown prince, had a concubine named Shi Liangdi and gave birth to emperor's grandson Liu Jin. Liu Had three sons, and in order to distinguish them, he called Liu Jin emperor Shi's grandson by his maternal grandmother's family name. When Emperor Shi grew up, he married his wife Wang Wengshu and gave birth to a son, Liu Yiji. A few months later, in the second year of Emperor Wu of Han's reign (91 BC), the "WuJiao Gate" broke out, and Prince Ji, Shi Liangdi, Shi Huangsun, Lady Wang, and other members of the family were killed one after another, and only the infant Liu Yiji, who was waiting to be fed, retained a life and was sent to prison.
The warden feng ji knew that the crown prince Liu Zhao was more wronged than Dou E, and saw that Liu Yi was pitiful, so he specially kept Liu Yiji and did not kill him. Not only that, but Instead, Hee-gi chose two female prisoners in prison to be his grandmothers.
Later, some people said that there was Tianzi qi in Chang'an Prison, and Emperor Wudi of Han ordered the execution of all prisoners. As a result, only for the words of Emperor Wu of Han, the inquisitor Guo Yong took the soldiers to the prison late at night to carry out the order to shoot and kill. However, at this critical juncture of life and death, Feng Ji gave Guo Yong a "closed door soup", on the grounds that those who did not commit capital crimes should not be sentenced to death, and besides, there were still great-grandchildren of the emperor in prison, how can you act rashly?
As a result, the two sides had a stalemate for one night, and Guo Yong had no choice but to go back to the army of Emperor Wu of Han to general Feng Ji, thinking that Emperor Wu of Han would definitely make decisions for him and give him justice. However, when Emperor Wudi of Han heard this, he actually sighed a long sigh: "That's it, that's it, this is Providence, and Providence cannot be violated." Therefore, the sober Emperor Wudi of Han revoked the order to "shoot and kill". In this way, Liu Yiji miraculously escaped another disaster.
Time was like an arrow, and after the case of Liu Zhao, the prince of The Imperial Guard, liu was already five years old, and Feng Ji once again carried him to his car seat and sent him to lu to live with his grandmother Shi Liangdi's family. Shi Liangdi's mother, Zhenjun, was very fond of this poor child and took care of his life in spite of his old age and frailty. Feng Ji also promptly reported the news that Liu Yiji had been pardoned to the ye court official office. Since then, Liu Yiji's name has been recorded in the genealogy of the clan, and his living expenses have all been provided by the imperial court. At this time, Zhang He, who had previously been the head of the imperial court Liu Zhao, cared about his master's old kindness and cared for the emperor's great-grandson. He used his own private money to provide Liu Yiji with school.
In this way, Liu Yi had already worked hard and finally kept the clouds open to see the moon. In July of the first year of Yuan Ping (74 BC), the seventeen-year-old Liu Yi had changed his name to Liu Zhen and was made emperor, as Emperor Xuan of Han. Emperor Xuan of Han was also the only emperor in Chinese history to have suffered imprisonment before taking the throne. After he took office, "the political and religious Ming, the law and the law, the border security, the four Yiqing, the Shan Yu Qiansai, the world is rich, the people are happy, and his reign is too much for Emperor Taizong (Emperor Wen of Han)". His reign with his predecessor Liu Fuling, the Emperor of Han Zhao, was collectively known as "Zhaoxuan Zhongxing".
