In the early years of the Western Han Dynasty, in order to consolidate his power, Liu Bang, the ancestor of Han Gaozu, successively eliminated seven princes with different surnames, such as Han Xin, Peng Yue, and Yingbu, who were divided into princes in the Chu-Han struggle for hegemony, and later named the sons of the Liu family as princes, and Liu Qing, the king of Lu'an, immediately entered the stage of history in 121 BC as a prince of the same surname who was divided.
In 121 BC, Emperor Liu Che of the Han Dynasty took the meaning of "peace in the six lands, never rebel", placed the state of Liu'an, and made Liu Qing the prince of Gong the first king of Lu'an. Thereafter, Lu'an was a fief of five princes, which lasted for 132 years until the end of Wang Mang's period.
The first generation of Lu'an king - Liu Qing
Liu Ji, the father of Liu Qing, the King of Lu'an in the Western Han Dynasty, was a half-brother of Emperor Liu Che of the Han Dynasty, and died of anxiety after the defeat of RenJiaodong. Emperor Wu of Han made his youngest son Liu Qing the Prince of Lu'an, reigning for 38 years. After Liu Qing's death, the courtesy name Gong (恭), in recognition of his good moral character and respect for the obedient emperor, was given the burial system of "yellow intestine inscription" that only the emperor could enjoy.
In 2006, Lu'an Shuangdun unearthed the no. 1 tomb of the huge "Yellow Intestine Inscription" burial system, and the owner of the tomb was Liu Qing, the Prince of Gong (Gong).
