So Wang Mang wrote to the queen mother, saying to the queen mother, "The emperor has been on the throne for a few years, but the queen has not yet been decided, and the harem concubine system has not been established. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info For many years, the country **** is a big reason, that is, the emperor has no children. Now we are in charge of the emperor's urgency, and we will select the queen and harem concubines as soon as possible according to the system of 'the Son of Heaven marrying twelve daughters' in the Zhou Dynasty."

The Empress Dowager agreed and ordered the relevant departments to determine the roster of candidates for the harem. The departments concerned were very efficient and the roster was handed over very quickly. Wang Mang's daughter is among them. But on this roster, there are many daughters from the Wang family at the same time.

After Wang Mang got the roster, he was auspicious for a long time. He realized one thing: so far, Wang Mang had rarely made a mistake in his life of power operations, but this time he realized that he had made a serious mistake. Because on this roster, his daughter's name is inconspicuous, and it is almost submerged in it. If remedial measures are not taken, the daughter is in danger of being squeezed out by her own brother's daughters, and the consequences will be serious!

Wang Mang decided to change his strategy. So he played to the Queen Mother again, "I have no talent and no virtue, and my daughter is even less talented, so I decided to let my daughter abstain and not participate in the queen election"

The Empress Dowager really didn't understand what Wang Mang meant, so she had to issue an edict: "Since Wang Mang's daughter took the initiative to abstain, the queen candidate does not have to consider her." There are also other daughters of the Wang family, and they don't think about it."

Could it be that when it comes to the fat in his mouth, Wang Mang can't watch it being taken away by others like this? Hold your horses! Everything this time was in Wang Mang's calculations. Even the Queen Mother was unknowingly fooled into by Wang Mang and cooperated with him to put on a show! Only by doing so will the "noble character" of Wang Mang of Anhan be infinitely elevated. In response to Lao Tzu's words "indisputable, so there is no competition in the world" Wang Mang created momentum through indisputable ways to fight for his daughter to the position of queen. I have to say: this trick is too high!

Sure enough, the edict of the Empress Dowager had just been announced, and Chang'an City was already surging. Whether it is government officials, ordinary people, or Confucian intellectuals, more than 1,000 people gather outside the palace every day.

What are they here for? There is only one thing: to petition for Wang Mang's daughter, "An Hangong's merits are immeasurable, if her daughter is not competent, then whose daughter can be qualified for the queen's position" The slogan is shouted like this, who dares to come out and fight?

The show isn't over yet. At this time, Wang Mang sent his subordinates out to dissuade him, do a good job of reassuring the people, and said that he must not put too much pressure on the Empress Dowager... At this time, the Han Dynasty was already crazy. The more Wang Mang persuaded, the more the crowd shouted excitedly.

The Empress Dowager Wang was very helpless and had to issue an edict again, asking the relevant departments to recommend Wang Mang's daughter. At this time, Wang Mang came out and spoke again, "You can recommend my daughter, but the scope should be enlarged to include all the daughters of the Wang family on the original roster"

As soon as Wang Mang's words fell, the ministers protested unanimously, "We only consider Wang Mang's daughter" Wang Mang pretended to be helpless and sighed, "Okay, then send someone to investigate my daughter"

In the spring of the 3rd year of the Yuan Dynasty (3), the Empress Dowager Wang sent three ministerial-level high-ranking officials, Xiahou Fan of Changle Shaofu, Zongzheng Liu Hong, and Shangshu Ling Pingyan, to inspect Wang Mang's daughter. Soon, the inspection report was handed over to the Empress Dowager "Our respected daughter of Duke An Han has enjoyed high-quality education since she was a child, and she looks dignified, which is very suitable for bearing the mandate of heaven and serving the emperor"

At this time, poor Kong Guang was forced to stand up. led a group of high-ranking government gangsters such as Ma Gong, Zhen Feng, Sun Jian, Yin Xian, Liu Xin, and Taibu and Taishi Ling, pretending to go to worship God, divining a hexagram in front of the altar, and then reporting to the Queen Mother "Good Omen"

Then, the relevant departments will give Wang Mang a dowry. Lu Pheasant, the founding queen of the Han Dynasty, once formulated: the queen's dowry gift is 200 catties of gold and 12 horses; The bride price of the lady is 50 catties of gold and 4 horses. But later Lu Pheasant broke this rule himself, and used 20,000 catties of gold when he gave his son Liu Ying, Emperor Hui of the Han Dynasty, a dowry. Why did Lu Pheasant break the rules? That's because Liu Ying married the queen, a close relative of Lu Pheasant's family...

Now, the relevant departments have decided to give Wang Mang a dowry of 20,000 catties of gold, equivalent to 200 million yuan, according to Lu Pheasant's exceptional standards. But Wang Mang replied, "It's too much, I only need 40 million of them" Then, Wang Mang only left 7 million, and divided the remaining 33 million equally among the 11 wives of Emperor Liu Jin of Hanping. For this reason, the ministers played "the concubine dowry of 3 million and the queen's dowry of 7 million, which does not reflect the dignity of the queen and should be added", so Wang Zhengjun issued an edict to give another 23 million, plus the previous 7 million, a total of 30 million money. But Wang Mang took out 10 million of it and gave it to the poor family members of the Wang family... After all, Wang Mang also took a dowry of 20 million yuan, which is very kind.

The ministers also played, "According to the ancient rites, the father of the queen should be given the title of a hundred miles of land." Today, please add the title of Anhan Gong to 25,600 acres of Xinnoda", which was rejected by Wang Mang.

In the summer, according to Wang Mang's suggestion, the car uniform system was formulated. Officials and people health, send-off, marriage, slaves, farms, and equipment. Set up officials and scholars: the county is called the school, the county road is called the school, the township is called the school, and the gathering is called the order. 1 school and school teacher; Zhen and gather 1 teacher of the "Book of Filial Piety".

When you're all set, it's time for the wedding. But at this moment, a fire suddenly broke out in the backyard of Wang Mang's house, burning countless innocent people to death!

Here's the thing, Wang Mang's eldest son Wang Yu didn't know when he started, and he couldn't get used to his father's tricks of power. He decided to start accumulating merit and doing good deeds.

What does Wang Yu want to do? It is estimated that if his father Wang Mang knows, he will hit the wall! He actually hooked up with Wei Bao, a relative of the Wei family!

Wang Yu told Wei Bao, "If you want to enter Chang'an City, you have to take a clear stand and show your attitude" Wei Bao said, "No problem, as long as you can enter the city, you can do whatever you ask me" Wang Yu told Wei Bao, "Then call Wei Ji to express his gratitude, and scold Fu and Ding's relatives are not things, so that they can be recalled to Chang'an" Wei Ji was very obedient, so she did what Wang Yu said... Sure enough, it was not done in vain, Wang Mang handed Wei Ji's recital to the Queen Mother, and then expressed it in the name of the Queen Mother! What people didn't expect was that Wang Mang just added 7,000 food estates to Wei Ji, so he didn't say anything!

Next, Wang Yu taught Wei Ji to use a woman's trick, crying, making trouble and hanging herself, saying that she wanted to go to the city for nothing else, but wanted to reunite with her son... After Wang Mang heard about it, he was still unmoved, and still added some more food to her, which was regarded as a dismissal!

Wei Ji made trouble twice, but it didn't work, and she seemed to be a little disappointed. She asked Wang Yu what else he had to do? Wang Yu gritted his teeth and said, "The trick is gone, and you can't curve into Chang'an, so let's do it directly!" Directly play to Wang Mang "Wei Ji played again, this time Wang Mang was also very direct and refused!" Wei Ji hit the wall three times in a row, and her heart was cold!

At the same time, Wang Yu is also cold. Wang Yu finally understood: he is still very tender, and with his own strength, he is not his father's opponent at all! So he went to find a helper, searched for it, and found two people: teacher Wu Zhang, and his wife Lu Yan's brother Lu Kuan.

The three of them got together, grinded and discussed for a long time, and finally came to the conclusion that it was impossible to conquer the treacherous An Han Gong with a book. If you want to convince him to hand over power, the only way to do it is to use his truce words!

What is the trick of Wang Yu and others? It's so untechnical to say it. That's what his dad is left over from playing - pretending to be a ghost.

This is the inspiration of Wang Yu's teacher Wu Zhang. What kind of teachers there are, what kind of students there are. The reason why Wang Yu's level is inferior is estimated to be related to the teacher's level. Wu Zhang thinks so: "Wang Mang fears ghosts and gods, so he might as well pour a jar of blood on the gate of Wang Mang's house at night." Then I can pretend to fool Wang Mang and say: If you want to avoid trouble, you have to return power to Wei's relatives."

Want to rely on a basin of blood and a stinky mouth to bluff Wang Mang? Since the founding of the Han Dynasty, I have seen stupidity, but I have never seen such stupidity! Wang Yu agreed with his teacher Wu Zhang's method and handed over the work of spilling blood on the door of his house to his brother-in-law Lu Kuan.

The night is dark and the wind is high, and it is the time to pretend to be a ghost. I don't know if it was dark enough that night, if the wind blew hard enough. I only know: When Lu Kuan poured blood on the gate of Wang Mang's house, he was discovered and taken down on the spot!

The conspiracy was revealed, Wang Mang was not polite at all, and threw his eldest son Wang Yu and daughter-in-law Lu Yan into prison together. Wang Yu saw that he couldn't bear it and committed suicide. Lu Yan is pregnant and about to give birth. Soon after, Lü Yan gave birth to a child, and Wang Mang executed Lü Yan in prison. At the same time, Wu Zhang was beheaded and his body was at the east gate.

At this point, Wang Mang has killed his two biological sons with his own hands. Truly achieve: for the sake of political power and interests, the realm of perfection that the six relatives do not recognize. Wang Yu was defeated, and the fate of Wei's relatives can be imagined. Wang Mang only left Wei Ji, the mother of Emperor Liu of Hanping, alive, and the rest of the Wei family were all killed!

The fire is burning here, and it should almost be over? But Wang Mang thinks: This is not an accidental incident, and the fact that Wang Yu, the son of his own family, can be pulled into the water, indicating that there must be an anti-Wang Mang group inside and outside Chang'an City! And the power of Wei's relatives is just the tip of the iceberg... So Wang Mang decided to follow the vine, expand the attack area, and wipe out all the anti-Wang Mang forces!

Wu Zhang had more than 1,000 disciples during his lifetime, and Wang Mang regarded them as an evil party and ordered him to be imprisoned. All the living beings denied it and refused to recognize Wu Zhang as a teacher. Only the great Situ Peng Yunchang not only had the courage to admit the identity of Wu Zhang's disciple, but also collected Wu Zhang's body for burial, winning praise from the people of Chang'an. It was Wang Shun, the younger brother of Wang Mang, who also praised Yun Chang's move, which was comparable to Luan Bu who collected Peng Yue's body back then, and Wang Mang did not dare to add guilt.

Wang Mang's political imagination is rich, and he touched and touched along the vine: Princess Jingwu, the daughter of Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty, Wang Mang's sixth uncle Wang Li, cousin Wang Ren, Wang An, He Wu, Bao Xuan, Xin Tong, Xin Zun, Xin Mao, Xin Bo and hundreds of others were all killed, and the sea was terrified. The people of Beihai are staying in Chang'an at this time. Seeing this situation, he sighed to his friends and said, "The three outlines are gone." If you don't go, disaster will come to you" So he untied the crown and hung it at the gate of the eastern capital, left Chang'an in a hurry, took his wife and children to the sea to cross to the east, and went to Liaodong to avoid trouble...

In January of the 4th year of the Yuan Dynasty (4), Emperor Liu Yin of the Han Ping Dynasty issued an edict: change Yin Shaojia Gong to Song Gong, Zhou Chengxiu Gong to Zheng Gong.

Liu Yin issued an edict: Women who have not committed crimes themselves, and men who are over 80 years old or 7 years old, unless they have committed a major crime of rebellion and have been specially arrested by the edict, shall not be arrested without reason. If there are any persons who should be questioned, they will be questioned at their homes.

On February 7, the second of the three princes of the Han Dynasty: Da Situ Ma Gong and Da Sikong Zhen Feng personally led a team and went to Wang Mang's house to welcome his relatives with the royal honor guard. Awarded the queen's seal to welcome Wang Mang's daughter into Weiyang Palace. Amnesty to the world. Officials below Jiuqing to 600 stones, and those who have subordinate titles in the clan. Give the people of the world a first-class title. Widows, lonely and elderly.

In February, 8 people, including the servant Wang Yun, were ordered to celebrate the holiday, branch the world, and observe the customs.

The Queen Mother, who was played by her own nephew Wang Mang, must have thought that she could take a break. However, the old man thought it was so beautiful, and it was still far from the end of the play...

In the summer, Taibao Wang Shun suddenly led a group of officials and more than 8,000 people to the palace. Collectively shouted slogans, asking the Empress Dowager to grant them a request: Be sure to reward the Duke of Anhan...

Wang Zhengjun did not express his opinion, and directly sent the recital to the relevant departments. The leaders of the relevant departments soon introduced a set of plans to reward Wang Mang: 1. Seal Xinxi, Zhaoling 2 counties and Huangyouju and Xinye's fields; 2 With the titles of Yiyin and Zhou Gong, Wang Mang is called Zai Heng and is ranked as the Upper Duke; 3 gave Wang Mang's mother the title of meritorious king, and Wang Mang's two sons Wang An as the new marquis and Wang Lin as the marquis of the capital; 4. Add 37 million yuan to the queen's dowry.

The Queen Mother immediately followed the proposal and came to the front hall in person to confer canonization. Wang Mang led his second son into the court, but he resigned and did not dare to be sealed. Wang Mang, after the next dynasty, wrote another letter: "I accept the title of my mother." As for sealing myself and my son, I have received it in my heart, so don't get it."

At this time, Taishi Kong Guang stood up and spoke again, "An Han Gong has done his best for the country and worked hard. No amount of reward can be worth his contribution to the Han Dynasty" The Empress Dowager Wang watched Kong Guang open her eyes and talk nonsense, and she was about to lose her temper. But she didn't say much, and ordered the Great Situ Ma Palace and the Great Sikong Zhenfeng to go to the festival to reward him, and Wang Mang accepted it. But he still refused to seal himself with Zhaoling, Huangyou, and Xinye's fields.
