Huo Guang's origins were actually related to his brother Huo's illness. As Huo Guang's half-brother, Huo Guang did indeed move steadily, and in the end he controlled the overall situation of the Western Han Dynasty, and even the abolition of the emperor was a matter of Huo Guang's words. This person first deposed Liu He, and later arranged for a Liu Yiji.
Fortunately, Liu Yi was already resourceful, otherwise Huo Guang estimated that he really had the intention of establishing himself as emperor. Liu Yiji was emperor Xuan of Han, who once again realized the zhongxing of the Western Han Dynasty after Emperor Wu of Han and was highly evaluated in history. The young emperor was full of political wisdom in his treatment of Huo Guang.
Liu Yiji first followed Huo Guang's thoughts and married Huo Guang's daughter Huo Chengjun, which made Huo Guang very satisfied. Since his daughter had become empress, Huo Guang naturally had to support Liu Yiji all the time. At the same time, Liu Yiji also showed great trust in Huo Guang, did not install his own cronies in the imperial court, and was even more obedient to Huo Guang, which also made Huo Guang very relieved. In addition, Liu Yiji has become an adult at the age of 18 and has not returned to politics.
Instead, he continued to trust Huo Guang, which made Huo Guang cao for several years, which was also the peak of Huo Guang's life. If Liu Yiji can become a good emperor by giving up power like this, it is also too easy. In fact, Liu Yiji also did a lot of things, including rehabilitating his relatives, burying them thickly, including Wei Zifu, Liu Zhao, Liu Jin, etc., re-erecting a temple for Emperor Wu of Han, and consolidating the Liu family's world. In order to establish his authority, Liu Yiji continued to attack the Xiongnu and succeeded.
It was only a few years later that Huo Guang finally passed away, and Liu Yiji ushered in his own power. What do you think?
