Anyone who has studied history should know that in the history of China, the Han Dynasty was divided into the Western Han Dynasty and the Eastern Han Dynasty, but the relationship between the two Han Dynasties is not clear to many people. The textbook is summarized in a few words. He said that after Wang Mang usurped the throne in the Western Han Dynasty, the people lived in the mire, so Liu Xiu, a descendant of the Han nationality, rose up and seized Wang Mang's world. Many netizens will have a question. As the founding emperor of the Eastern Han Dynasty, is Liu Xiu really a descendant of the royal family of the Western Han Dynasty?

In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Liu Bei also claimed to be a descendant of Emperor Xian of Han Dynasty, but we just can't figure it out. After all, Liu Sheng, the King of Zhongshan Jing, has more than 120 sons, and it is easy for Liu Bei to pretend to be one. Here we must consider whether Liu Xiu is a fake. In fact, after verification, Liu Xiu is indeed an authentic descendant of the Western Han Dynasty royal family.

Liu Fa, the son of Liu Xiu, was later named King of Changsha, and he was also a very important figure in history. He has many sons, such as Liu Mai or Qing Liu. The youngest son in the whole family tree is Liu Xiu. They have been officials for generations, and they are very real and don't look like fakes.

In troubled times, if you are descended from the royal family, then you will have a high appeal. But for Liu Xiu at that time, it seemed useless. After all, in the troubled times at the end of the Western Han Dynasty, there were many descendants of the royal family everywhere. Liu Xiu can be a boss because of his ability and talent. Some people have commented that Liu Xiu is the emperor who knows how to fight, who knows how to use people and who knows how to learn. It can be seen that Liu Xiu himself is still excellent.
