Chapter 221: The Loser in the Political Struggle

Why was the Marquis of Haidun deposed?

In the official version, Huo Guang's reason for abolishing Liu He, Marquis of Haidu, was that he was extravagant and ignored the government.

The charge is to do 1,127 ridiculous things in 27 days.

This is obviously an exaggeration, no matter how mediocre Liu He is, it is impossible for him to do so many ridiculous things in 27 days.

In fact, according to this record, it is more likely that after Huo Guang supported Liu He, the king of Changyi, as the emperor, Liu He was disobedient, and violated various disciplines by arriving late for work and leaving early, and the probationary period did not reach for a month, so Huo Guang abolished him.

In other words, it was Huo Guang who was dissatisfied with Liu He not being an emperor, so he abolished him.

But is this really the case with real history?

Huo Guang is really a red star towards the Liu family, after supporting Liu He, he found out that Liu He was "not like a human monarch" in only 27 days, and then for the stability of the Han Empire, in order to be able to have a virtuous monarch in power, he abolished Liu He again?

I'm afraid not at all.

In the final analysis, for a powerful minister, an obedient emperor is a good emperor in the hearts of powerful ministers.

But for the emperor, how can the power of the subjects be above the power of the military?

How can the emperor listen to his courtiers, and what the courtiers say they want to do, the emperor will do it?

Obviously, there is only one reason why Liu He was deposed, after ascending the throne as emperor, Liu He wanted to take power, but Huo Guang was unwilling to give power.

As a result, Huo Guang felt that this emperor was very ambitious.

I am afraid that if Liu He's foundation is stable in the future, he will be like Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty back then, and he will drive Zhou Bo, who supported him, back to the fiefdom to farm.

And then settled the accounts after the autumn, and arrested Zhou Bo on the grounds that Zhou Bo attempted to rebel.

Although, in the end, Zhou Bo did not die because of this, but he also left the famous saying: "I have a million troops, but I know the value of the prison guards?"

Therefore, Huo Guang felt that Liu He was not "kind" at all, and if he was made the emperor, the Huo family would definitely be finished.

So Liu He was abolished and replaced with Liu Xun, Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty, who seemed to be very kind, well-behaved, and obedient.

After Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty was put on the throne by Huo Guang, it can be said that he listened to Huo Guang's words very much, not only asked Huo Guang's opinion on all matters in the court, but also abolished his original wife and took the new queen arranged by Huo Guang for him.

All in all, when Huo Guang was alive, Emperor Xuan of Han was a well-behaved little sheep and was very well-behaved to Huo Guang.

But it turns out that the emperor of the old Liu family, at least the lineage of the Western Han Dynasty, has no one who is easy to get along with, all of them are very black-bellied, and they know how to settle accounts after the autumn.

From Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty to Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, this is the case.

The same is true of Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty.

When Emperor Xuan of Han really mastered the government and the opposition, and Huo Guang also died, Emperor Xuan of Han immediately turned his face.

The entire Huo family was uprooted by Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty, who had endured for a long time, and settled accounts after the autumn!

Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty, who was revived in the history books, finally showed his sharp fangs!

Calculated and calculated, abolished two emperors, and in the end, Huo Guang did not keep the Huo family.

And Liu He, the loser in the political struggle with Huo Guang, is naturally even more tragic.

In the history books, the few records related to him are usually described as absurd and confused, losing the emperor's etiquette, and chaotic Han system, such an image of "pure madness and unfavorable".

But in fact, is he, the deposed emperor who has only been the emperor for 27 days, really such a person?

It's just that Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty, as the emperor after Liu He, in order to maintain the legitimacy of his imperial power, must characterize Liu He as such a mediocre and unreasonable image of the Son of Heaven.

"The Legend of the Fairy Tree"

Even if all of Huo Guang's political legacy was erased by Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty, the Huo family was also knocked into the quagmire.

However, when Huo Guang abolished Liu He, Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty did not characterize it as wrong, but vigorously defended it.

There is no way, if Huo Guang did not abolish Liu He, then Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty would still be herding cattle and plowing the fields among the people.

He must maintain the correctness of Huo Guang's abolition of Liu He, and then he can prove that it is reasonable for him to sit in the world and that it is the destiny of heaven.

Otherwise, if Huo Guang's behavior of abolishing Liu He was wrong, then would Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty now want to return the throne to Liu He?

After all, people ascend the throne first!

Therefore, Liu He's image is destined to be a person who is absurd and confused, loses the emperor's etiquette, and messes with the Han system!

He must be recorded in the history books!

However, if the tomb found in Nanchang now is the tomb of the Marquis of Haiding, then perhaps a real, living story of Liu He that is not exactly the same as the literature will be found from the tomb!

This is of great significance to the political struggle between the history of China and the exploration of BC!

After thinking of this, all the archaeologists of the Nanchang Archaeological Institute and the Jiangxi Archaeological Institute were excited.

"Don't get excited just yet!"

Wen Yuangen said calmly: "It's uncertain whether this tomb is the tomb of the Marquis of Haidu, maybe it is the tomb of King Ning of the Ming Dynasty." ”

"Besides, even if it is the tomb of the Marquis of Haiding, the Marquis of Haihuang has been passed down for four generations, even if the last Marquis of Haihuang is removed, there are at least three generations of Marquis Haihuang who can establish a tomb in Nanchang."

"This tomb is not necessarily the tomb of Liu He, the first Marquis of Haidu!"

Wen Yuangen's words made everyone's hearts burn up, and they quickly calmed down again.

Yes, there are four generations of Marquis Haidu, and no one knows which Marquis Haidun belongs to the tomb under this robbery cave.

Maybe in the end, there will be a lot of joy, not even the tomb of the Marquis of Haiding, but the tomb of King Ning of the Ming Dynasty!

It's too early to tell!

The twenty or so archaeologists all calmed down and looked at Wen Yuangen.

"Let's do some exploration first, at least determine the age of the tomb, and the approximate size!"

Wen Yuangen gave an order, and everyone took the Luoyang shovel and began to explore within the scope of this thief cave.

The results of this exploration are amazing!

Through professional archaeological investigation and exploration work, the archaeological team at the site soon discovered that this was not just a tomb, and found that it also had a burial tomb, a lady's tomb, and a large number of tombs!

With the expansion of the exploration area again and again, the more and more exploration holes are played, and the situation of the entire tomb is becoming clearer and clearer!

This is not just a simple underground tomb!

It is a high-standard mausoleum with a complete cemetery covering an area of more than 46,000 square meters!

The perimeter of the entire cemetery wall is 868 meters, there are north gates, east gates, and double gates outside the gates, and the gate site is composed of doorways, gate piers and rammed earth foundations!

And it can be determined that the age of this tomb is indeed a tomb of the Han Dynasty!

In other words, eighty percent of them are definitely the tombs of the Marquis of Haidu!

But after coming to this conclusion, the members of the archaeological team were even more puzzled.

According to the previous archaeological discoveries in China, it can be determined that the imperial tomb of the Western Han Emperor was built with an above-ground cemetery, represented by the Yangling Tomb of Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty in Chang'an.

In the same way, one level below the emperor is the prince-king, and the prince-king also has his mausoleum.

For example, the well-known tomb of King Liang during the period of Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty has a supporting cemetery.

But!

Like the rank of liehou, is there a complete cemetery or cemetery?

So far, there has been no conclusion in the archaeological community.

Although it is said that the tomb of the Western Han Dynasty Liehou such as Mawangdui has been discovered, due to various special reasons, no complete cemetery has been found on Mawangdui.

The stolen Han Dynasty tomb in Nanchang is a high-standard tomb with a cemetery.

It can be determined that Nanchang was sealed without the princes and kings of the Han Dynasty in history!

The most famous is the Haiduhou series.

In other words, the discovery of this cemetery also inadvertently proved that the Han Dynasty was not only emperors and princes, but also able to have an above-ground cemetery for worship.

At the level of liehou, you can also enjoy the cemetery!

This discovery has solved a major mystery in the field of archaeology in the Han Dynasty in China!
