Volume 24 Han Ji XVI (4)

After the abolition of the king of Changyi, Huo Guang and Zhang Anshi's ministers discussed the establishment of a new monarch, but after thinking about it, there was no suitable one. Bingji said to Huo Guang: "The general military filial piety emperor is entrusted by the infant to take on the heavy responsibility of the world. Pondering. I don't want Emperor Xiaozhao to die early. For a while, the sea was afraid and wanted to hope for the heir. On the day of mourning, after the establishment of great friendship, it is not the same person, and it will be abolished with great friendship. People in the world are not convinced. Fang Jinshe's Jizong Temple's life was in one fell swoop. The ministers eavesdropped on the opinions of the people, and the princes and clans did not have a good name among the people. And the great-grandson of Emperor Wu raised by the edict is sick, and now he is outside the court, when Bingji made him live in the county mansion, he saw that he was young, and he has been eighteen or nineteen years old. In peace and moderation, may the general carefully examine the righteousness. If you think it is feasible, you can first make it clear to the people of the world, and then decide on a big policy. In this way, the world is very fortunate. ”

Du Yannian also knew that his great-grandson was of good character, and persuaded Huo Guang and Zhang Anshi to establish him.

In the autumn and seventh month, Huo Guang sat in the court, and the ministers below the prime minister of the church discussed the matter of establishing a prince. Prime Minister Yang Chang and others said: "Emperor Xiaowu's great-grandson is sick, eighteen years old, he is taught by poetry and filial piety, he is thrifty, benevolent and loving, and can be the heir to Emperor Xiaozhao." Fengcheng ancestral temple, Ziwan surname. The minister died to hear. ”

The Empress Dowager issued an edict saying: "It can be played." So Huo Guang sent Zongzheng Liu De to the emperor's great-grandson's family to wash and give him royal clothes. so that the servants will meet them with chariots. He lived in Zongzheng Mansion. Gengshen, enter Weiyang Palace, see the Queen Mother. He was named the Marquis of Yangwu. Immediately afterwards, the ministers played the seal, that is, the emperor's throne. Gao Temple, respect the Empress Dowager as the Empress Dowager, serve the imperial history Yan Yannian, impeach the general Huo Guang to abolish the lord, no one has the courtesy of the ministers, and it is a great rebellion. Although the fold was suppressed, the ministers of the court were in awe.

In August, Anping waited for Yang Changxue.

In September, amnesty prevailed.

Wu Yin, Cai Yi is the prime minister.

At the beginning, Xu Guanghan's daughter married the emperor's great-grandson at the age of one and gave birth to a son, Liu Zheng, and after a few months, the great-grandson was established as the emperor, and the Xu family was Jiefu. At that time, General Huo had a little daughter and was close to the Queen Mother. The ministers discussed the establishment of the queen, and they all thought in their hearts that they were the daughter of General Huo. But no one has mentioned it yet. The emperor issued an edict to seek the sword used when he was lowly. The minister knew the emperor's intentions, so he asked Xu Jieshu to be made the queen. In November, Renzi established the queen Xu. Huo Guang was not suitable for the monarchy because his stepfather Xu Guanghan was a person who was still in prison, so he was named Changchengjun after the age of death. The Empress Dowager returned to Changle Palace, and Changle Palace set up a guard army for the first time.

In the spring of the first year, an edict was issued to determine the merits of the temple of Anzong. The general Huo Guangyi sealed 17,000 households, plus the previous food, it has exceeded 20,000 households. The general of the chariot cavalry, Zhang Anshi, the Marquis of Fuping, was below 10 people, 5 people were feuded as marquises, and 8 people were given the marquis of Guannei. General Huo Guangji returned to power. The emperor humbly refused to accept it. Everything has to be closed to Bai Huoguang first, and then it can be carried out by the emperor. Since the time of Emperor Zhao, Huo Guangzi Huo Yu and his brother and grandson Huo Yun are all Zhonglang generals. Huo Yun's brother Huo Shan, Fengche Du Lieutenant led Hu Yuebing. Huo Guang's two sons-in-law are divided into the guards of the East and West Palaces, and the grandsons of Kundi's sons-in-law, all of whom were invited by the court. For Dr. Cao to ride the captain, in the matter, the party is conjoined, and the foundation is heavier than the imperial court. and the abolition of the king of Changyi, Huo Guang's power is getting heavier, and every time he sees the emperor, he is humble and polite.

In the afternoon of April in the summer, there was an earthquake. In May, there was a phoenix flying in Jiaodong Qiancheng Town, which gave amnesty to the world and exempted this year's land rent. In June, the edict said: "Therefore, the crown prince died by the lake, and he did not have a name, because he needed to sacrifice when he was old, and he should be called for him and set up a garden." "There is a priest to please, according to etiquette, the latter is the latter, and the identity is equivalent to his son. Therefore, his parents were only demoted and not sacrificed. This is an act of obedience to the righteousness of our ancestors. After His Majesty became Emperor Xiaozhao, he should inherit the sacrifice of his ancestors. foolishly thought that his father should mourn and his mother should mourn. Therefore, the crown prince is the wife, and Shi Liangdi is the wife. All were reburied.

In the autumn and July, Liu Jian, the crown prince of Yan Thorn, was appointed as the king of Guangyang. Liu Hong, the young son of King Guangling, was established as the king of Gaomi.

At first, Shangguan Jie and Huo Guang fought for power, Huo Guang both punished Shangguan Jie, and then obeyed the law of Emperor Wu, and punished the rope of the group, so the lay officials were still harsh and thought they could, and Henan Taishou Huaiyang Huang Ba, only known for the use of wide and good, the emperor was in the people, he knew that the people were the most bitter and strict law, and when he heard that Huang Ba held the law, he recruited as the court lieutenant, and the number of doubts in prison, and the court was peaceful.

In the spring of the second year, Daji Farmland was guilty of prolonging his life and committed suicide. At the funeral of Emperor Zhao, the director of Dasi Nong requisitioned the people's cars, increased the rent value by Yannian, and stole 30 million money. Yannian denied it and said: "It's all made up by the enemy, and there is nothing at all." Huo Guang said: "Since there is really no such thing, I will be poor to the end." ”

Tian Guangming, the imperial historian, said to the servant Du Yannian: "The righteousness of the Spring and Autumn Period, with merit, when the king of Changyi is abolished, if it is not for Tian Zibin's words, it will not be a big thing." How about the government now paying 30 million to atone for his sins? May I tell the great general my foolishness. ”

Du Yannian told the general. The general said, "Indeed, he is indeed a warrior. At that time, when such a great discussion was issued, it really shook the imperial court. I, Huo Guang, were shocked and touched my heart with my hand, which made me still have some heart palpitations. Please pay homage to Dr. Xie Tian, so that he Xiaoyu Dasi Nong, and hurry up and turn himself in, so that he can be judged by justice. ”

Dr. Tian sent someone to tell Tian Yannian, and Tian Yannian said: "I am honored that the government can lenient me, but what face do I have to go to prison, so that everyone will laugh at me, and the soldiers will spit on my back?" That is, he closed the door of the pavilion, and was alone in the fasting room, favoring the knife, and walking around in the room. A few days later, a messenger came to summon the court commander of the Extension Year. Hear the drums. Killed himself.

In the summer of May, the edict said: "Emperor Xiaowu bows to benevolence, might, and merit." And there is no corresponding temple music to match it. I am very sorry. It should be agreed upon with Dr. Lieuhou 2000 stones. So the ministers discussed in the court, and they all thought that they should agree on the temple music according to what the edict said. Only Changxin Shaofu Xiahou Sheng said: "Although Emperor Wu has the merit of conquering the vast land of Siyi, he kills many soldiers, exhausts the people's financial resources, and is extravagant, the world is wasted, the people are displaced, more than half of the people are dead, the locusts are large, and the red land is thousands of miles. or cannibalism among the people, and the accumulation has not been recovered to this day. If there is no virtue in the people, it is not appropriate to build a temple for him. ”

The ministers jointly questioned Xiahou Sheng and said: "This is a matter decided by the edict. ”

Xiahou Sheng said: "Even if it is an edict, it is not available. As a minister, you should insist on speaking upright, and you shouldn't be obedient, since I think it's right, I won't regret it even if I die. ”

So the prime minister Yu Shi impeached Xiahou Sheng to criticize the edict, destroyed the short emperor, the big way, and the prime minister Changshi Huangba A Zong Xiahou Sheng was not impeached, and both of them were imprisoned. Yousi invited the temple of Emperor Xiaowu to be the temple of Sejong and play the dance of the five elements of Shengde Wenshi. Emperor Wu patrolled the fortunate county country, and all built temples and were equal to Gaozu Taizong.
