Just when Wang Mang was busy usurping the throne and grabbing power, Liu Xiu was busy growing.

Just when Wang Mang was busy with retro restructuring, Liu Xiu returned to his hometown from his uncle in Xiao County to farm.

Just when Wang Mang annoyed the people of the world and rebelled everywhere, Liu Xiu wanted to go to university for further study.

In 14 AD, when Liu Xiu was 19 years old, he put down the crops in the field, bid farewell to his relatives, and went to the capital to study.

Today, 19 years old to go to university, is not too young. But at that time, it didn't matter, because in Taixue, there were many people with gray hair who were still studying, and who had gray hair and green lights who studied hard for most of their lives.

It was here that he attained what would later be widely praised for his highest academic qualifications compared to previous kings.

It is worth mentioning that Liu Xiuneng had the opportunity to go to college this time, thanks to Wang Mang for providing the opportunity.

According to the research of historians, human beings have had the phenomenon of education since the primitive society, and there were various schools including universities in the Xia and Shang periods in China.

However, the universities of the Xia, Shang, and Zhou dynasties were not universities in the sense they are today.

Because the so-called universities at that time were mainly private in scale, such as Confucius had 3,000 disciples, including 72 virtuous people, and Mozi claimed to have students

300 people, 180 people dared to go to the soup; The government also undertakes a variety of social functions at the same time, and is to be used as a nursing home, a warehouse, and a training ground.

Therefore, we can only say that universities originated in the Xia Dynasty, and universities in the true sense of education appeared in the Western Han Dynasty.
