In 14 AD, 19-year-old Liu Xiu left his hometown to study in Chang'an, the capital city, and took the first step in the real sense of the journey to reign over the world.

During the two or three years of studying in Chang'an Taixue, Liu Xiu's tutor was named Xu Ziwei, and the course was "Shangshu".

Here, he not only had a deeper and more systematic understanding of Confucian culture, but also met people from all walks of life

All kinds of social information that may never be accessed in remote countryside witnessed the prosperity and hustle and bustle of Chang'an as the largest city in the world at that time

A world that you can't see in the countryside.

However, this is a troubled time.

This person is Wang Mang.

Alas, children have no mothers, and it's a long story.
