The only lesson that mankind has learned from history is that mankind has not learned any lesson from history

In the chaotic world, the strong look at the world, and the power and opportunity to guide the country and the mountains, can be called heroes Haojie. The weak are stubborn and secretive, drifting with the tide, and are burdened by this world. At the end of the Han Dynasty, how many talents emerged at a time, the most worth mentioning is that Cao Cao, who is able to rule the world and the adulterous male of the chaotic world, especially how domineering he is to blackmail the Son of Heaven to make the princes, but today I want to talk about the unfortunate Son of Heaven in the story - Liu Xie.
Puppet Emperor Liu Xie
The emperor was the most dangerous profession in ancient times, especially in the chaotic world, although the person who was pushed to the god king was noble and had no power but actually had no power, wanted money and no money, had a vain name, and couldn't help himself! Liu Xie was such an unlucky emperor, and Liu Xie was destined to be a tragedy in his life from birth.
It is said that Liu Xie's mother was Wang Meiren of the Han Ling Emperor, and the harem has been a place of right and wrong since ancient times, and the favored and unfavored will inevitably be calculated. Wang Meiren's beauty and favor were jealous of Empress He, and she was poisoned after she gave birth to Liu Xie. Liu Xie, who had no mother since childhood, grew up trembling around his grandmother, and later Empress He's son was made emperor, and Liu Xie became the king of Bohai as a foil.
Soon after Emperor Shao of Han succeeded to the throne, there were successive eunuch rebellions, Dong Zhuo rebellions, liu xie was involved in political struggles, became emperor, and was known as Emperor Xian of Han. Dong Zhuo was arrogant and arrogant, and his subordinates were not good goods, burning and robbing everywhere, making the people in the city miserable, and Liu Xie, as a puppet emperor, was helpless against this. Soon after, powerful troops from all over the country rebelled against Dong Zhuo, and although Dong Zhuo was destroyed, Liu Xie's situation was even worse. Because he met Cao Cao.
Cao Cao directly staged a drama of "holding the son of heaven hostage to order the princes", firmly holding power in his own hands, in order to further consolidate his position, Cao Cao not only controlled the former dynasty but also intervened in Liu Xie's harem affairs. Since ancient times, the imperial heir was the foundation of the country, and Cao Cao married his three daughters, Cao Xian, Cao Jie, and Cao Hua, to Liu Xie, in order to integrate the bloodline of the Cao clan into the royal family.
Unwilling to succumb to Cao Cao, Liu Xie conspired to murder Cao
Liu Xie's side is not idle, there is still a sense of resistance, after all, it is his own world, there is still a group of loyal old ministers under his command, it is better to look ahead and give it a go, taking advantage of the fact that Cao Cao's foundation in the Han Dynasty is not yet stable, maybe there is still a chance to overturn. Therefore, Liu Xie secretly ordered Dong Guiren's father Dong Cheng to try to kill Cao Cao, but the matter was revealed, Dong Cheng was killed, and even Dong Guiren, who was pregnant with Liujia, was also killed by Cao Cao. Since then, Liu Xie has been very peaceful.
Soon after, Cao Cao once again forced Liu Xie to depose Empress Fu, and even wrote the edict for him. It turned out that Empress Fu had written a letter asking her father to assassinate Cao Cao, and the result was known to Cao Cao. Cao Cao was furious and directly attacked the people of the Fu clan, poisoned and killed two sons of Empress Fu, and then ordered Liu Xie to make his eldest daughter Cao Jie empress.
Empress Cao Festival
Cao Jie, unlike his father, was very clear about morals and ethics, and married Liu Xiehou. Liu Xie was jealous that she was Cao Cao's daughter and rarely got close to her, and at first the relationship between the two was not good. Later, Liu Xie made her empress, and they got along day and night, and the relationship between the two gradually improved.
For Cao Jie, since marrying Liu Xie, she has been a member of the Han family, and everything she has done is for Liu Xie and Liu Han. In the twenty-fifth year of Jian'an, after Cao Pi inherited the title of King of Wei and was preparing to replace the Han Dynasty, he sent emissaries to claim the jade seal. In this regard, Cao Jie was very angry, thinking that how could his brother disregard etiquette and openly make such a rebellious and rebellious act and refuse to hand over the jade seal.
However, Cao Pi could not stop there, Nian Zai's sister was not good enough to force him to send emissaries many times. In fact, Cao Jiehe didn't know that she was just doing this to no avail, but she was still stubbornly protecting Liu Xie's last bit of dignity. In the end, Yuxi was handed over, and Liu Xie was demoted to the title of Duke of Shanyang.
Liu Xie, who had been a puppet emperor for more than ten years, was finally liberated, and did not have to live a life of trembling and fear every day, the world was too cold to see, and after the great enlightenment, he took Cao Jie back to hiding. After returning to hiding, Liu Xie became a Langzhong, single-mindedly integrated into the people, treated the people, and although the life was clear, it was also considered to be stable.
Throughout Liu Xie's life, he was nothing more than burdened by the times, and even if the last emperor of a dynasty had great ambitions, he could not save the situation in which the building would fall, and could only be used by others, and he was also a poor person.
