In China's long feudal society, there were about 400 emperors. There were the Qin Emperor Han Wu, the Emperor zhongxing of Tang Zong and Song Zu, and more mediocre and incompetent. There are even a few unscrupulous emperors who don't know how many absurd things they have done, and today we will understand how unreliable Liu Hong, the Emperor of Han Ling, really is.
1. Clearly marked prices, open selling officials. Selling officials has been taboo in the dynasty throughout the dynasties. In particular, the emperor hated this even more, and once it was verified, he decided to make a decision! And this Han Ling Emperor actually opened an office specifically to be responsible for the affairs of selling officials at all levels in various places. Prices are mainly based on the number of official positions and the wealth of the place of office. Payment methods are fully self-pay and semi-self-payment, can be paid in one time, can also be paid in installments, to say that it is as simple and convenient as we buy a house and do a mortgage. Among them, Cao Cao and his father Cao Song also bought a position as a lieutenant. There are 2 people in the official selling business who cannot fail to mention.
One was Sima Zhi, who was a qing official, a prestigious chinese official. By being ready to promote him to be a giant deer too shou, do this too shou according to the price is 20 million two silver. This Liu Hong knew that he had no money and gave a preferential price to reduce 3 million taels of silver, and at the same time he could pay half of it first, and then pay the rest of his post, but Sima Zhi still couldn't get it, so he pretended to be ill and resigned to Liu Hong, Liu Hong said I don't approve your resignation? Every day, the eunuchs were allowed to come home to urge them to take office, and Sima Zhi was forced to commit suicide and escape!
There is also a celebrity called Cui Lie, took the back door to buy a 50% discount to buy a Situ, by the spring breeze proud, Liu Hong was not happy after seeing it, a pang of Chen flesh pain, even murmured that the sale lost, sold the loss, but unfortunately could have sold 10 million, only sold a friendship price half sold half sold only 5 million. Later, Cui Lie was promoted one after another, but he was always uneasy about buying an official, so he asked his son Cui Jun what others thought of him? Cui Jun said that others hate you because you are full of copper smell. This is also the earliest source of the term copper stink.
2. Open a court market. Liu Hong reigned for more than ten years, using ostrich tactics to bury his head in the soil for major state affairs, and all major state affairs were invisible, did not happen, did not hear this, and hollowed out their minds to do some absurd things. He specially selected a place in the palace, developed a commercial street, and took out the rare treasures in the palace and the officers and soldiers on duty in the palace court of the palace eunuchs and concubines played the pawns and peddlers, bargaining like a market for real transactions. He himself dressed as a big boss to brag about the market, buy and sell with various merchants, in order to increase the real scene of the market, he also specially asked people to pretend to be thieves to steal things, and there were special people to fight and fight, so it was not lively. Liu Hong is here every day, and he is very happy! And those treasures were lost by fish in the muddy waters.
3. After playing the market without freshness, Liu Hong found a new excitement point, opened a zoo, and raised a large number of dogs and donkeys. Every day, the dog was teased and donkeyd, and one day a eunuch had a sudden idea and asked someone to dress up the dog. Put on the dog's official hat, wear the official uniform to print silk, and then swing to go to the court, Liu Hong felt very interesting, close to see that it is a dog, Liu Hong clapped his hands and laughed, loudly praised: A good dog official, Manchu Dynasty Wenwu has no self-respect, although he feels strange shame and humiliation, but dares to be angry and dare not speak.
There are other piles, pieces, only you dare not think that there is no Han Ling Emperor Liu Hong does not dare to do. Zhuge Liang commented on Liu Hong, the Emperor of Han Ling, in the Table of Famous Masters of the Ages: "Pro-villain, far-reaching and virtuous subjects, after that, Han fell into decadence." When the former emperor was there, whenever he discussed this matter with his subjects, he did not hesitate to sigh and hate Yu Huan and Lingye.
If you come to the list of the top ten worst emperors in history, I believe that Liu Hong, the Emperor of HanLing, can definitely be on the list by strength, and there is no dispute!
