After the death of his brother Liu Xiu, Liu Xiu often lived alone. And he does not eat wine and meat. There is a sobbing spot between the pillows. The main bookkeeper Feng Yidu kowtowed widely, and Liu Xiu stopped him and said: Don't talk nonsense in the master book. Feng Yiyin said: At the beginning of the political turmoil, the people had nothing to rely on, and people were in a state of hunger and thirst for a long time, and it was easy to be full. In terms of the current lord's special order, the officials should be assigned to the counties and counties to announce the benefits.

Liu Xiu adopted his opinion, rode the capital captain Song Zi Gengchun, met Liu Xiu in Handan, and retired to see the military art of the official generals, who would be different from him, so he accepted each other deeply.

Therefore, Liu Lin, the prince of Zhao Miao, lobbied Liu Xiu to make a decision to fill the river to irrigate his red eyebrows, but Liu Xiu did not comply. So he left and went to Zhending. Liu Lin is a man between Zhao and Wei. During Wang Mang's time, there were people in Chang'an who claimed to be the emperor's son and were killed by Wang Mang. Wang Lang, the diviner of Handan, therefore falsely claimed to be the true son, claiming that his mother was the palace maid of the emperor, and he still saw the yellow gas from top to bottom, so she became pregnant. Empress Zhao wanted to harm him and exchanged with other people, so he was able to be preserved. Liu Lin and others believed him, and worked with Zhao Guohao, Li Yu, Zhang Shen, etc., to establish Wang Lang. At this time, it was rumored that the red eyebrows would cross the river, and Liu Lin and others therefore declared that the red eyebrows would establish Liu Ziyu. With the hearts of the audience. Most of the people believed it. In December, Liu Lin and others led hundreds of cars to ride hundreds of cars, entered Handan City in the morning, stopped at the palace of the late King Zhao, and established Wang Lang as the Son of Heaven. The detachment commander is in the dark. Moved to the north of Zhao, west of Liaodong, all in response to the wind.

In the first month of the spring of the second year, the great Sima Liu Xiu took Wang Lang Xinsheng, so he went north to Jizhou.

Shen Tu Jian, Li Song moved the capital from the beginning of Chang'an. In February, he set off to Luoyang. The three auxiliary heroes are pretending to punish Wang Mang, and everyone wants to be a marquis. Shen Tujian not only beheaded Wang Xian, but also threatened that Sanfu Erlang was a cunning person and killed his master together. The officials and the people were panicked, the county was hoarded, and Shen Tujian and others could not be captured. From the beginning to Chang'an, it was an edict of amnesty. Except for the son of Wang Mang, all others are removed from their sins. So Sanfu Xihei. At that time, in Chang'an, only Weiyang Palace was burned, and the rest of the palace rooms were used for accounts, warehouses and official mansions, all of which were blocked as before, and there was no difference between the city and the past. He also lived in Changle Palace. Ascension to the front hall. The officials were listed in the court in order. He was even more ashamed, bowing his head and not daring to look at it. The generals came later, and they began to ask how much they had obtained from the plunder, and the attendants on the left and right were all officials in the palace for a long time, so they looked at each other in astonishment. Li Song and Jianyang Zhao Meng said that at the beginning, they should be crowned as kings, but Zhu Kun thought it was impossible, because Gaozu had an appointment, and he was not the king of the Liu family. At the beginning, it was the first to seal the clans. Liu Zhi is the king of Dingtao, and Liu Qing is the king of Yan. Liu She was the king of the Yuan family, and Liu Jia was the king of Hanzhong. Liu Ci is the king of Wan. Liu Xin is the king of Ruyin. Then Wang Kuang was established as the king of Zhuyang, Wang Feng as the king of Yicheng, Zhu Kun as the king of Jiaodong, Wang Chang as the king of Deng, and Shen Tujian as the king of the Ping family. Chen Mu is the king of Yinping. Zhang Wei, the general of the guard, was the king of Huaiyang. Liao Zhan, the general of Jinwu, was the king of Xuan. Shangshu Hu Yin is the king. Li Tong, the general of Zhutian, was the king of Xiping. Wuwei Zhonglang made Li Yi the king of dancing yin. Cheng Dan, the general of Shuiheng, was the king of Xiangyi, and Zong Tong, the general of the hussars, was the king of Yingyin. Yin Zun is the king of Yun. Only Zhu Kun refused to resign, so Zhu Kun was the left big Sima, and Liu Ci, the king of Wan, was the former big Sima, so that he and Li Yi and others pacified the Kanto. He also made Li Tong town Jingzhou, and Wang Changxing Nanyang was too guarded. With Li Song as the prime minister, Zhao Meng as the right big Sima. Together, we will take office. He also accepted Zhao Meng's daughter as his wife, so he entrusted Zhao Meng to the government. Feasting and drinking day and night*, the ministers want to talk about things, but they can't see it when they are drunk. Sometimes, as a last resort, he ordered the attendant to sit in the curtain and talk to him. Mrs. Han is especially fond of alcohol, and every time she drinks and sees something often performing, she will get angry and say: The emperor just drank with me, why do you bother me with those bad things at this time? Get up and crack the bookcase.

Zhao Meng is authoritarian. Life and death are self-indulgent, and Lang officials say that Zhao Meng is indulgent, and he is even more furious, drawing his sword and killing him. No one dared to speak out anymore. As a result, a group of small chefs were all arbitrarily awarded official titles. There is a nursery rhyme in Chang'an that says: Zhu (stove) is raised, and Zhonglang will be. Rotten sheep stomach, ride the captain. Rotten sheep's head, Guan Neihou.

Li Shu, the general of the military division, wrote a letter and said: Although Your Majesty's determination is due to the power of the soldiers of Pinglin in Xiajiang, it is only a temporary relief, and you cannot stick to the routine when the country is stable. Now the people of Jiafei are expected to benefit a lot, just like the edge of the wood to seek fish, and the mountains to dive pearls, the people in the sea can measure whether Hanzuo can be revived when they see this. When he heard this, he was furious and imprisoned him. And all the generals who are outside will be rewarded and guarded. The states and counties are staggered, and I don't know what to follow. So Guanzhong centrifuged, and the four seas resented. Kui Huan and his uncle Cui Kuiyi, etc., Kui Huan will be done, Fang Wang's success or failure is unknown, and he strongly advises him not to move, but Kui Huan does not listen. Fang Wangliu left a letter of thanks and left. Kui Huan waited until Chang'an, and began to take Kui Huan as the right general, and Kui Cui Kui Yi was all under the old name. Geng Guo made his son Geng Yi Feng play Chang'an. Geng Yi was twenty-one years old, and when he went to Song Zi, he would rise from Wang Lang, and Geng Yi said from the official Sun Cangweibao: Liu Ziyu is the orthodox emperor of Cheng, and if he doesn't return, what do you want to do far? Geng Yi pressed the sword and said: Ziyu is a thief, and he will be captured in the near future, I will go to Chang'an, and the country will go to Chen Shanggu Yuyang soldiers and horses, and after returning, he will suddenly ride to the rabble, just like urging the withering and rotting, seeing that you are so ignorant of going, it seems that it is not far from the extinction of the clan. Sun Cangwei Bao then died and surrendered to Wang Lang. Geng Yi heard that the great Sima Liu Xiu was in Lunu, so he galloped north to meet him. Liu Xiu kept him by his side and signed it as a long history. Go north with him to Jizhou.

Wang Lang moved to buy Liu Xiu's head with a reward of 100,000 households, and Liu Xiu ordered Gong Cao to order Shi Yingchuan to be the king of Wangba, and went to the market to recruit troops to attack Wang Lang. Everyone in the city laughed, raised their hands to tease him, and Wang Ba returned in shame. Liu Xiu will return to the south, and Geng Yi said: Now the soldiers are coming from the south, and they cannot go south. Yuyang is too shou Peng Pet, a fellow of the lord, and Shanggu is too shou, that is, the father of the family. Send the soldiers of these two counties, and you can control the strings and ten thousand horses. Handan is not something to worry about. Liu Xiu's officials and subordinates were unwilling, saying: Even if you die, you still have to go south, why do you want to go north into someone else's pocket. Liu Xiu pointed at Geng Yi and said: This is the master of my northern road, and it is right to go north. At this time, the late prince of Guangyang, Liu Jie, raised troops in the thistle to respond to Wang Lang. Disturbance in the city. It is said that the envoy of Handan arrived, and all the people below 2,000 stone came out to greet him. So Liu Xiuqu drove out and went to the south city gate, which was closed. Assault gets. So he galloped south in the morning and night, and did not dare to enter the city. Next to the esophagus. To Wupu Pavilion, the weather was cold at that time, and Feng Yi served bean porridge. To Raoyang, the officials and subordinates were short of food, Liu Xiunai called himself the messenger of Handan, entered the herald, the herald just wanted to eat, the servant was hungry, and scrambled to grab food. The herald suspected that they were fake, so he deceived them and said that General Handan had arrived, and the officials and subordinates were all disgraced when they heard the words, Liu Xiu climbed into the car and wanted to escape, and then considered that he was afraid that he would not be able to avoid disaster, so he slowly sat back in his seat and said: General Handan, please enter. After a long time, there was no movement, and then I drove away in a hurry. Walking in the morning and night, covered with frost and snow, the head and face are cracked. to the lower Quyang. It is rumored that Wang Langbing is behind, and everyone is afraid. When they arrived at the Hutuo River, the subordinate officials at the front station came back and said that the river was flowing fast, and the river could not be crossed without a boat. Liu Xiu asked Wang Ba to check, Wang Ba was afraid to alarm everyone, so that the army's heart was confused, and when he came back, he lied and said: Bing Jian can be crossed. Officials and subordinates are happy. Liu Xiu smiled and said: The outpost is really talking nonsense. Then he led the people on their way, and when they came to the river, the ice on the river was hard enough to cross. So he ordered Wang Ba to escort the crossing. Just after the horses, the ice collapsed because it could not withstand the huge force of the impact. To Nangong, in case of heavy wind and rain, Liu Xiu led the car to the empty house next to the road, Feng Yi hugged the salary, Deng Yu lit the fire, and Liu Xiu baked clothes on the stove. Feng Yi re-entered the wheat rice. Entering the west of Xiabo City, wandering in confusion, I don't know what to do, there is an old man in white on the side of the road, pointing to them and saying: Work hard, Xindu County is guarding Chang'an City, eighty miles away from here. Liu Xiu galloped away quickly. At that time, all the counties and kingdoms had been surrendered to Wang Lang. Duxin is too guarded by Nanyang Renguang, and Rong is too trustworthy and unwilling to obey. Ren Guang thought that he was alone in the city, and he was afraid that he would not be able to do it all, and he was overjoyed to hear Liu Xiu. The people all said long live. Pi Wei also came to the meeting from Herong. The speaker said that because of the letter that the soldiers sent themselves to the west to return to Chang'an, Pi Wei said: It has been a long time since the folk songs of the officials have missed the Han government, so they have begun to raise the honorific number, and the world responded. Sanfu Qing Palace in addition to the Tao to welcome him, today the diviner Wang Lang, pseudonym, because of the obsession, gathered the rabble, and then shook the land of Yan Zhao. There is no fundamental solidity, and the soldiers of the two counties of Ming Gongfen will crusade against him, why not resist it? Wouldn't it be in vain to lose Hebei now. It will also alarm Sansuke, and the fall will be heavy. Not for the above count. If the Ming Duke no longer has the intention of conquest, it will be difficult to make it meet even if he believes in the soldiers of the capital. Why? If the Ming Duke goes west, the power of Handan will grow, and the people will refuse to donate their parents and become the master, and send the Ming Duke thousands of miles. Its dispersion and flight are inevitable.

Liu Xiu no longer insisted on going west. Liu Xiu was weak in the second county, and wanted to enter the city head road, and he was in the army. Ren Guang thought it was impossible. So he levied and sent to the side county, and got 4,000 elite soldiers. Bai Renguang is the general of the left. Li Zhong, the commander of Xindu, was the right general. Pi Wei was the later general. And Rong is too stubborn. Xindu made Wan Xiu a partial general. All of them are feudal marquises. Staying in Nanyang Zong is too obedient to receive letters. Let Ren Guang, Li Zhong, and Wanxiu generals follow. Pi Wei's generals were in front, and Ren Guang wrote more essays, saying: The great Sima Liu Gong, the head of the city, Zilu, and Lizi all had millions of soldiers, and came from the east to fight the captives. Sent to gallop to the giant deer realm, and the people got the letter and turned to tell each other. Liu Xiu took advantage of the evening to break into the Tangyang realm, and many horses rode fires, filling the Daze. Tangyang immediately descended. He also captured and surrendered the county. Chengtouzi Road, is the Dongping thief, between the river and Ji, there are 200,000. There are sixty or seventy thousand sons. Therefore, Liu Xiu wants to rely on them. Liu Zhi, a native of Changcheng, gathered thousands of troops, according to Changcheng to welcome Liu Xiu. Liu Xiu took Liu Zhi as the cavalry general. Geng Chun led more than 2,000 clan guests, and the old and sick were all accompanied by wood to welcome Liu Xiuyuyu. Bai Gengchun is a former general. Attack Xiaquyang, Xiaquyang surrenders. The crowd merged to tens of thousands of people, and returned to the north to hit Zhongshan. Geng Chun was afraid that the clan family had different intentions, so that his younger brother Geng Yu returned and burned down the clan house to prevent him from looking back.

Liu Xiu pulled out Lunu, and wherever he passed, he sent a levy for his life, moved to the border county, and attacked Handan, and the border county responded. At that time, King Yang of Zhending raised troops to attach Wang Lang, and there were more than 100,000 people. Liu Xiu sent Liu Zhi to lobby Wang Yang, and Wang Yang surrendered. Liu Xiuyin stayed in Zhending. Accept Wang Yang's niece Guo as his wife to marry Wang Yang. Attack Yuan's and defend the son, all of them. To Shan, he killed Wang Lang's general Li Yun. To the Bai people, the general Li Yu of Wang Lang was restored. Li Yu returned to the city and defended it, and he couldn't attack it.
