Faced with the raging fire burning on all sides and the incessant Chu Ge, Wang Mang was extremely angry and panicked.

Especially when the news of Liu Xuan's proclamation as emperor came, he was like five thunderbolts. In order to keep this hard-won position of the first brother, as the biggest "bad currency", he decided

We will continue to do whatever it takes to lose our conscience.

In 23 AD, not long after Liu Xuan became emperor, in order to hide his fear and whitewash the peace, Wang Mang decided to remarry.

Speaking of this, or every time I read the relevant records of historical materials, I can't help but feel sick while being angry.

Our great Chinese nation has a kind people, excellent culture, and abundant resources, so why are there so many disasters and difficulties?

In addition to the bullying of outsiders, what are the problems of ourselves?

Why did the phenomenon of "bad money driving out good money" happen, so that Wang Mang and his ilk succeeded and caused disaster for decades?

Wang Mang's unbearable politics have repeatedly broken the moral bottom line of our nation, is this avoidable?

How can we break the "bad money driving out good money effect" and minimize the price paid by our nation?

…………。

Now, Wang Mang decided to use the state's official instruments and people's fat and people's ointment to handle his marriage on a large scale.

He sent a number of working groups, went to various places to select many virgins, and personally interviewed them, and selected 121 of them to be put into the harem.

Among these unfortunate girls, he took a fancy to the daughter of Shi Chen, a native of Duling (now Shaanxi Province), and wanted to be the queen.

Wang Mang's continuation cannot be said to be a private matter, because he not only used the state's official instruments and the people's fat and people's ointment for this purpose, but also made this matter political.

He issued an edict to choose Shi's daughter as his successor, called her father Shi Chen, and gave him 30,000 catties of gold, treasures and brocades, and countless carriages, horses, slaves, and maids, which were counted as dowries.

At the same time, he also named his father-in-law Shi Chen as the Marquis of Peace and the General of Ning Shi.

Lao Shi had two sons, who were also awarded the position of servant.

However, at this time, Wang Mangnian was 68 years old, and his hair and beard were all white.

In order to show that he was still in the midst of puberty and was strong, and at that time chemical hair dyes had not yet appeared, he took a very environmentally friendly approach to the problem: using carbon

Scribble your hair, dye your beard with ink, wrap yourself up well, and look like a middle-aged man.

Next, Wang Mang held an extremely grand wedding ceremony, which was far from being comparable to Liu Xuan's enthronement ceremony.

He arranged for Shi's daughter to go out of the city, and then take the phoenix into the palace, he personally went to the front hall of Weiyang Palace to greet him, and then entered the cave room together.

Different from ordinary people's weddings, he also announced the registration of 120 other shortlisted girls, and awarded them based on various factors such as eye-catching index

The four different grades of harmony, concubine, beauty, and royal are all given the corresponding national cadre treatment:

and for the upper class, 3 people, enjoy the treatment of the public;

The concubines are inferior, counting 9 people, and enjoy the treatment of the secretary;

The United States is third-class, with a total of 27 people, enjoying the treatment of doctors;

The royal is the fourth class, with a total of 81 people, and enjoys the treatment of Yuanshi.

The problem of dyeing black hair and beard and arranging the political and economic treatment of these girls has been solved, and a new problem has come, that is, Wang Mang's own body.

The harem is already as beautiful as a cloud, and if so many young girls come in, with his decrepit body, he can't bear it no matter what.

After all, Wang Mang is a master of evil, and arranges people to find monks everywhere to enter the palace, asking them to concoct immortal elixirs that can rejuvenate people (in fact, they are aphrodisiacs).

so that it is convenient for oneself to engage in fornication between men and women.

Western proverb: Whoever God lets perish, he must first make him crazy.

This should be very appropriate for Wang Mang.

He is so crazy, and he is also approaching extinction step by step.
