In the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Wu ShuSI, and the Biography of Liu Shutai Shi Cishi Xie", Liu Sui beheaded by Liu Ji and listed together with Liu Ji (Liu Sui's eldest son), Tai Shi Ci, Jing Rong, and Shi Xie Shi Hui, and passed on as one.
Chen Shou's arrangement for Liu Xuan and others was a bit puzzling at first. For Liu Xuan: Liu Ji was a son, Tai Shi Ci and Jing Rong were generals. Four people put together, it is understandable. And Shi Xie and Liu Xuan couldn't beat the eight poles, how could they put them together to pass the pass. In fact, Chen Shou's arrangement is in line with the principle of "the body of the column is followed by things". (From Pei Songzhi's view when he annotated the "Chronicle of the Three Kingdoms, Wei Shu X Xun Yu Xun You Jia Xue Biography", that is, to give people a biography, the ability of the people in the biography should be equal.) Both Liu Xuan and Shi Xie were princes at the end of the Han Dynasty, and were eventually annexed by Sun Wu.
Back to the point. The Chronicle of the Three Kingdoms records Liu Sui: Liu Sui character Zhengli, Donglai Muping people also. The young son of King Xiao of Qi was made the Marquis of Muping, and his descendants were born. Uncle Xuan's father was favored, and he was a Lieutenant of Han. Brother Dai, Zi Gongshan, Shi Zhong, Yanzhou Assassin History. Judging from these five or six crosses, although the resumes of Liu Xiu and Liu Bei are similar (both are descendants of the princes of the Western Han Dynasty and are relatives of the Han Dynasty), there are also very different places (they are in different classes, which are the relationship between unification and reunification).
You may wish to straighten out Liu Xuan's origin.
First of all, the Han Dynasty.
During the Two Han Dynasties, the surname "Liu" was a national surname and a golden signboard; the Han dynasty was the royal family and was Zhang Chunjin's business card. Liu Sui's ancestor was Liu Fei, the eldest son of Liu Bang, the Emperor of Liu Gao, and Liu Fei the Prince of Qi; Liu Bei's ancestor was Liu Bang's fourth son, Liu Heng, the Emperor of Han. The Eastern Han Dynasty was founded by Liu Xiu, emperor of Han Guangwu, as a descendant of Liu Yu, the ninth grandson of Han Gaozu and the sixth son of Liu Qizhi of the Han Jing Emperor, The Prince of Changsha. More importantly, the Eastern Han Dynasty still recognized the clan status of the descendants of the Liu clan during the Western Han Dynasty. Therefore, Liu Sui, Liu Bei and others, although they were princes and princes of the Western Han Dynasty, were the sons of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and they could also be regarded as one of the members of the royal family (that is, the blood relationship was a little long).
As we all know, the Eastern Han Dynasty was a dynasty that paid great attention to the great righteousness and fame and attached importance to the relationship between honor and inferiority. The ancestral family of the Han Dynasty is a status symbol that can be encountered and cannot be sought. After all, the Han Dynasty clan was a rarity that was either born or never existed during the Two Han Dynasties. No wonder liu bei, since his debut, has said the phrase "I am the queen of Zhongshan Jing" every time. All in all, the identity of the Han Dynasty's clan relatives provided Liu Sui with pure gold stepping stones for entering his career.
Then, the official eunuch family.
The Han Dynasty stipulates: Soldiers, farmers, industrialists and merchants, and the four people have jobs. Among the "four peoples", the soldiers ranked first, and only the "soldiers" could enter the DPRK as officials. Liu Miao's uncle Liu Yu (劉宠), not only held the ranks of the Three Dukes (Sikong of the Second Emperor of Huanling, Situ of the Ling Emperor, and Tai Wei), but also had the title of "One Money Taishou"; Liu Dai's elder brother Liu Dai was not only in the position of Shizhong (侍中) and the Assassin of Yanzhou, but also one of the eleventh road princes (written in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms) against Dong Zhuo in the first year of Chuping (190). In Pei Songzhi's note "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", Liu Sui's family lineage is also very bullish: his grandfather Liu Ben was not only promoted to be a good and virtuous fangzheng to be a general chief (the county magistrate of Ban County), but also a Confucian who read a lot of books and was called Tongru (a Confucian who has penetrated Confucianism in ancient times and has penetrated Confucianism); his father Liu You, who was not only promoted to filial piety, but also an official to Shanyang Taishou. In the Eastern Han Dynasty, although the Liu Sui family was not as good as the Yuan Shao family of the "Fourth Dynasty and Three Dukes", they did not know how to throw off the Liu Bei family, which "sold mats", a few streets. Therefore, although the Liu Family is more Confucian and master of classics than Shangma Rong and Zheng Xuan, it is also a family of noble families with family roots. Therefore, the origin of family learning is a family precipitation that is accessible and difficult to find. After all, the origin of family learning in all dynasties and dynasties has been a kind of scarcity that either grows up or needs to be accumulated over generations. In the final analysis, the tradition of poetry and book inheritance provides Liu Sui with a high gold content stepping stone to embark on his career.
Liu Xuan's grandparents and fathers, by virtue of their status as a relative of the Han Dynasty and the tradition of poetry and book inheritance, were high-ranking officials. Liu Xuan's contemporaries themselves relied on the status of the sons of the clan and the power of famous and prestigious families to appoint officials. Since then, Liu Xuan has embarked on a path of becoming an official that is incompatible with the times and is different.
Author's Note: Different, refers to being different from other people. Liu Xuan's background is not only a relative of the Han Dynasty, but also a family of officials and eunuchs, but also a family of poetry and books. Such a birth has laid the foundation for Liu Sui to go to the stage of history, although he has created an innate advantage, and thus stepped out of a career that is incompatible with reality. As the saying goes: Birth determines character.
