Liu Xiu, everyone is very interested, from today will be changed every day, please continue to pay attention
Second, the fun butterfly effect
When many people talk about Liu Xiu, they often think that Liu Xiu is a descendant of the Han family, the Western Han was usurped by Wang Mang, and a new dynasty was established, Wang Mang's year name is Xin, the new dynasty changed the law and reformed, it was very trendy, it sounded very new, but in fact, it was unpopular with the people, many people missed the days of the Han Dynasty, and missed the strong era of "those who violate the strong Han from afar, although far away". Therefore, under the impetus of this trend, Liu Xiu naturally emerged, raised his arms, restored the Han Dynasty, and established the Eastern Han Dynasty. Just like after the fall of the Northern Song Dynasty, Emperor Gaozong of Song and Zhao established the Southern Song Dynasty.
Zhao Zhi We also know that he crossed the river on a muddy horse, repeatedly encountered dangers, was dragged by the golden soldiers in the sea, did not dare to land, seasickness and stunned the golden soldiers. And Liu Xiu, it seems that in the impression of many people, the emperor is easier than Zhao Shu. Or in other words, many people have no impression of Liu Xiu at all. Liu Xiu, it sounds, is just a very common name.
One of my elementary school classmates, named Liu Xiu, is still a girl. Although it is not taboo for New China to give a child the name of the emperor, it is certain that her parents must not know that their daughter has the same name as a former emperor. If you don't believe it, search on the Internet, there are definitely fewer people called Liu Bang than those called Liu Xiu, and there are much fewer.
In fact, Liu Xiu's difficulty in establishing the Eastern Han Dynasty was even greater than that of Liu Bang's founding of the Western Han Dynasty. It is also a "founding game", Liu Bang's level of clearance is "difficult", and Liu Xiu is "extremely difficult". This is what Wang Fuzhi said:
Guangwu wins the world, and it is especially difficult to be a higher emperor!
Wang Fuzhi's "Theory of Reading Through Jian"
Translated, the difficulty of Liu Xiu getting the world is more difficult than Liu Bang.
Of course, Wang Fuzhi is also a family word. Whether it's more difficult, let's start at the beginning.
Liu Xiu and Liu Bang are also self-made.
From the identity of the character, before the uprising, Liu Bang was a pavilion chief, and he also belonged to a township cadre. Before Liu Xiu's uprising, he was not even the pavilion chief, just an ordinary cattle herder and a crop man. Cloth of the Eight Classics, grass roots. The first time he fought a war, he went to war, he rode on an ox.
We have to ask, isn't Liu Xiu a descendant of the royal family? It is said that this day should be good, how can it be a cowherding baby?
Generally speaking, the so-called descendants are often suspected of misconduct. The most famous in this regard is Liu Bei, a small merchant peddler, according to the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", it was his brother Tucai who took the fortune of flying to the righteous qi, sold his family base, and recruited troops, which turned from the shoe industry to the big business. Liu Bei's technique I think is the study of shoes, how to make people's shoes comfortable, how to wear small shoes for people who are uncomfortable, he is an expert. As for his descendant status, the so-called "Queen of King Jing of Zhongshan" is likely to be a "brand", not an authentic one. King Jing of Zhongshan was called Liu Sheng, and his son alone was more than one hundred and twenty. Then to Liu Bei, for more than three hundred years, as long as it is said to be, it will not be able to fight counterfeiting. This is also where Liu Bei is clever. He can't impersonate the descendants of Dumiao Dianchuan, they are all limited editions, and the family tree is the number.
So, will the identity of Liu Xiu's royal family also be fake?
If we think so, we are wrong to blame Liu Xiu. Liu Xiu himself is indeed a descendant of the royal family, and speaking of it, his vein, and Liu Bei's vein, are both from Liu Qi, the emperor of Hanjing, and there are indeed records in history. However, there are some inconsistencies in this, which are very dramatic, and if you go to the root, it comes from an unexpected nightlife of Liu Qi, the emperor of Hanjing.
According to the "Records of History": One night, the Hanjing Emperor Liu Qi wanted to go to a concubine named Cheng Ji to spend the night to prepare for Cheng Ji. According to the title evaluation of the harem of the Han Dynasty, Ji's status is lower than that of Madame, equivalent to the emperor's concubine, and there are not many opportunities to be favored by the emperor, Cheng Ji should usually very much hope that Emperor Hanjing will come, the emperor can come, for Cheng Ji, it is a very happy thing, but on this day, Cheng Ji was not happy at all when she learned that Emperor Hanjing was coming, and wanted to avoid it and push off the matter.
Emperor Jing summoned Cheng Ji, but Cheng Ji was reluctant to enter.
"History"
In the commentary of the Book of Han, it is explained like this: There is a refuge: it is a matter of the moon. That is to say, this day, just in time for Cheng Ji, every month there are a few days of discomfort.
At that time, according to the relevant regulations, a woman with a regular holiday was absolutely not allowed to receive the emperor. The commentary to the "Records of History" says: The princes and concubines of the Son of Heaven enter the royal court in succession, and there are moon events that do not stop. So, how can you know this?
Not to mention, with Dan's gaze as a knowledge, let the female history see.
"History"
Chinese is subtle, and the more exquisite, the more subtle. The palace has always been the most exquisite place, and the emperor's women come for a holiday, and they can't shout to themselves: My great aunt is here. Not a system. However, it is also necessary to reflect your physical condition in time before being selected. Chinese will also find a way to let the palace maid who came to take a holiday to smear a kind of dan's red on her face, so that the eldest aunt would smile brightly on her face. In this way, female officials will avoid it when selecting. Dan Hong is equivalent to a leave slip, the female official looks, oh, this leave, menstrual leave, according to the custom, is excluded.
On this day, Cheng Ji made some exceptions.
The reasons for the exception are not documented in history. We can only mention a few maybes.
Perhaps Cheng Ji looked forward to Emperor Hanjing's eagerness; Maybe it was her momentary negligence, and it happened that she couldn't find Dan Hong that day, and she didn't even have a spare Sultan Red... It came out without erasing anything.
Maybe when she came out, she felt that she couldn't pick herself at all, originally basically every day was a Sunday, please take leave or not...
However, it was such a coincidence that Cheng Ji was picked.
This is a big problem for Cheng Ji, how to deal with this level at night? There are no leave procedures, if you say no, then it is not a violation of the law? If Emperor Han Jing found out, this is a crime of cheating, how can he hide this matter? Is his own momentary negligence really going to cause a big mistake?
Cheng Ji is still relatively witty, she thought about it and finally came up with a way. This method can be said to be the solution of no way. She found one of her maids, surnamed Tang, and she asked the maid surnamed Tang to lie on the bed and replace herself to accompany Emperor Jing of Han. The status of women in feudal society is very low, even if Cheng Ji's status is low enough, Cheng Ji's maid, there is no status, for anything, there is no right to choose, let you do anything, you have to do anything, at that time there were no feminists to speak for them, although Tang Nu was sent to sleep with the emperor, but she herself may not be willing ah. Who wants to be a stand-in? Or naked? However, I believe that she may be relieved to know that this mistake brought so much change to Chinese history, adding nearly two hundred years of history to the subsequent Han Dynasty.
Now, the most important thing is, can this matter be concealed from Emperor Han Jing?
Emperor Han Jing was drunk on this day, and really regarded Tang Nu as Cheng Ji, but he didn't find it.
I didn't know how to get drunk, but I thought Cheng Ji was lucky.
"History"
Emperor Jing of Han... What kind of alcohol is this? He drank this "broken piece"! Maybe he was also young at that time, did not experience some later tribulations, the Rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms is still waiting for him behind, men will not mature without tribulations, and immature will always do wrong things.
There is a saying: Emperor Han Jing was drunk by Cheng Ji. I think that no matter how drunk I am, I won't be drunk like this, I don't even know my own woman, and at the critical moment, it is not impossible to make a mistake.
Emperor Hanjing was confused and spent a night of spring breeze and intoxication. Although this incident is absurd, it is indeed recorded in historical records, in addition, according to my personal speculation, the next day, Emperor Hanjing opened his eyes, which can really frighten him. Looking at the person next to him, he was surprised: "Cheng Ji, have you done plastic surgery?" Where is the whole thing, so much change? ”
Tang Nu had to explain the truth: "Back to the emperor, not Cheng Ji, not surnamed Cheng, surnamed Tang, is Cheng Ji's maid, last night, Cheng Ji she forgot to ask for leave, and she couldn't be absent from work, so let me be a stand-in, I can't help, she is my leader, I can only listen to her, this is also an unspoken rule." ”
No matter what, Emperor Han Jing really understood at this time. The wine also woke up, the heart was cold, and the emperor's style was again. But how to deal with this?
From the perspective of Emperor Jingdi of Han, there are three methods:
First, official business. Cheng Ji and Tang Nu committed the crime of cheating, the nature of this matter is too bad, fortunately it is to change a maid, if you change Lu Zhishen, won't Liu Qi be finished? So it's killing the head, it's not too much. However, Emperor Han Jing was not a cruel emperor, Cheng Ji was also kind, and Tang Nu also sacrificed her life to kill them, and she couldn't bear it.
Second, private affairs are handled publicly. Since the raw rice has been made into cooked rice, he will marry the maid Ming Media and seal Ji Lihou. Turning this private matter into a public matter and taking a formality, it can also be considered complete. If you think about it, it won't work. After all, the emperor and the maid, the difference in rank is too big, it can't be said that the seal is sealed, if next time, other maids do the same, what should I do? Through temporary substitution, he made himself prosperous and wealthy, and became a fishing law enforcement. In addition, if it really spreads, Liu Qi is very faceless, the son of the great Han Tianzi, drunk and gaffe and immoral, what will the ministers think of this emperor? This emperor should be too confused.
Therefore, Emperor Han Jing used a third method: private affairs. He wanted to hide this matter, this method was often used by feudal emperors, pretending to be confused, when he didn't know. At that time, Emperor Han Jing did not have any promises to the maid surnamed Tang, at most, to use an Internet buzzword, that is, "Don't be obsessed with brother, brother is just a legend".
However, this legend really became a brother's legend.
The Tang girl became pregnant and gave birth to a handsome little man for Emperor Hanjing.
This little handsome man was born and first changed his mother's fate. Liu Qi saw that this matter was not easy to hide, and the Tang girl was also regarded as a contribution to the reproduction of the Han family, so he reluctantly named the Tang girl as Tang Ji - yes, you also have a treatment with Cheng Ji.
In history, this incident is the famous "Tang Ji misunderstanding". The ancients have a saying called "the wind starts at the end of Qingping", which means that some big events always start from some very inconspicuous little things by chance, like the "butterfly effect" proposed by meteorologists, there is a very classic expression about the butterfly effect, "A butterfly flapping its wings in Brazil can cause a tornado in Texas a month later." "Emperor Han Jing's inadvertent drunkenness coupled with Cheng Ji's regular holidays accidentally allowed the Liu Han dynasty to last for one hundred and ninety-five years.
Because Liu Xiu's vein came from this "Tang Ji misunderstanding".
Liu Xiu is the descendant of this little handsome man.
Therefore, it can also be said that this little handsome man also changed the fate of the Han Dynasty.
