First, strange names. When Emperor Ai of Han Dynasty ascended the throne, there was a great scholar named Liu Xin in the Western Han Dynasty, probably because he was afraid of changing his name. In the twelfth lunar month, the third son of Liu Qin, the current magistrate of Lankao County in Jiyang, was born just in time for a bumper harvest. He had nine ears in one crop, so his father named him Xiu, the word Uncle Wen. Since Liu Bang, his generation has been the ninth. Although he is of noble descent, he has basically become a grassroots. When he grew up, Liu Xiu was 7 feet 3 inches tall. According to the Eastern Han Dynasty, one foot is equivalent to 23.4 centimeters, or about 1.7 meters, which is equivalent to the current average height. With a high nose and a square mouth, a broad forehead and beautiful hair and beard, it should be said that it is ok, so it is called "Emperor Xiang" in later generations.
The second is the wonder of prophecy. After Wang Mang usurped the throne, his cousin Wang She kept a Taoist named Simon Junhui at home. Simon Junhui likes astronomical predictions and things like that. He told the king that the stars appeared. Liu Fu came back to life, and the son of heaven called. So, he and the then Buddhist Liu Xiu conspired to kill Wang Mang. When the story came to light, Wang Mang sent someone to arrest him and kill him. When he was finally taken to the execution ground, he said with a smile that Liu Xiu was indeed your son of heaven. Liu Xiu once went to visit his brother-in-law Chen Dengjia, and everyone was talking about it. This Liu Xiu should be the Buddhist Gong Liuxin, right? Liu Xiu said, how do you know it's not me? Made everyone laugh. Chen Deng secretly happy for Liu Xiu. After the establishment of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Chen Deng said to Liu Xiu, I finally got it for you, and Liu Xiuxiao laughed.
The third is the strangeness of character. Generally speaking, Liu Xiu is kind, cautious, forbearing and resourceful. When Liu Xiu was a child, he liked to grow crops. Because of this, his brother laughed at him for being worthless, but he was as angry and annoyed as ever. Later, in the war, everyone said that he was "timid as a mouse." When his brother was killed by Liu Xuan, he pretended to be calm and secretly hurt himself when he came home. At night, tears wet his pillow, and he didn't make a sound. Later, he found an opportunity to eradicate the murderer who framed his brother. When he came home in rags, his aunts all smiled and said that Uncle Wen was cautious and honest when he was young, but he was straightforward and soft. I didn't expect to become an emperor today. Liu Xiuxiao said, I also rule the world with judo. His old classmate Yan Guang didn't want to be an official like Chao Chao, and he didn't have to. He just laughed and drank, leaving a joke about sleeping with his classmates and making a guest star an emperor star.
The fourth is the wonder of experience. At the age of twenty-eight, Liu Xiu started fighting in Kunyang, patrolling Hebei, calming the south of the Yangtze River and settling in Bashu. He once rode an ox to fight, and finally got the support of 28 generals. /kloc-after 0/5 years, the whole country will be unified. In the battle of Kunyang, in the face of the disparity between the enemy and ourselves, Liu Xiu was not afraid of danger and led 13 cavalry out of the city to mobilize reinforcements. Finally, we recruited 17000 soldiers from outside, and defeated Wang Yi's 420,000 troops, just in time for the bad weather. Wang Yi's 420,000 troops were killed and drowned in the water, and the water stopped flowing. When he first arrived in Hebei, Wang Lang offered a reward for him everywhere. He asked Wang Ba to recruit soldiers, but as a result, no soldiers were recruited. Raoyang Wu Lou Lou has no food to eat. Feng Yi got bean porridge to satisfy his hunger, and when he got to Nangong, he was caught in heavy rain. He had to eat wheat rice and wild vegetables and go to Raoyang City to find food. If the doorman won't let him go, it will be very difficult. When crossing the Hutuo River, Wang Ba was asked to see if the river was frozen. As a result, Wang Ba saw that it was not frozen, but the situation was urgent. He could only lie and say that it was frozen. When he reached the front line, the river was frozen, and he successfully crossed the river. Before people finished, the ice melted again. It can only be said that it is a lucky day, and the story of Wang Mang expelling Liu Xiu should come from this.
The fifth is the miracle of marriage. As a teenager, Liu Xiuyou had a dream: to be an official and his wife to be Yin Lihua. Later generations of lean Zhu Wen and Wu Sangui also let out a glorious sigh. After the Battle of Kunyang, Liu Xiu married Yin Lihua, but his life experience was sometimes beyond his control. Facing the uncertain fate, he sent Yin Lihua back to his hometown in Nanyang and went north alone. Later, he married Guo Shengkun in Hebei Province for political needs. Later, Liu Xiu did not forget the old feelings and found Yin Lihua. /kloc-after he ascended the throne in 0/7, he was made a queen, and his son, Liu Yang, was a prince, later Emperor Xian of Han Dynasty. Generally speaking, after being emperor for 33 years, Guo Jianwu was abolished in 17, and Guo and Yin gave birth to five sons and 1 daughter respectively, with good endings.
