114 Dragger War
However, it is said that Emperor Guangwu has two sisters and one sister, the eldest sister is named Liu Huang, and the second sister is named Liu Yuan. Liu Yuan is Deng Chen's wife, who has been martyred. The younger sister's name is Liu Boji, and she is married to Li Tong as her stepmother. In the second year of Jianwu, Liu Xiu posthumously named Liu Yuan as the eldest princess of Xinye, his eldest sister Liu Huang as the eldest princess of Huyang, and his sister Liu Boji as the eldest princess of Ningping. Summoned Li Tong into the guard, sealed the first marquis, and worshiped Dasi Nong. The eldest princess of Huyang was widowed, and Emperor Guangwu took pity on her and asked her about the merits of the ministers. Princess Huyang said: "I look at the great Situ Song Gongwei's Rongde weapon, which is beyond the reach of the ministers!" Guangwu nodded and said, "I see." When Song Hong saw him, he ordered the princess to sit behind the screen and said to herself: "As the saying goes: 'You are easy to make friends, and you are rich and easy to wife,' do you know?" Song Hong said: "The ministers should not forget the friends of the poor and the low; The wife of the chaff does not go to court! Emperor Guangwu looked back at the princess and said, "Things are not harmonious!" The princess returned in a huff, and Song Hong also slowly retired, and a marriage discussion was dismissed. Later generations have poems praising Song Hongdao:
A husband should keep a righteous woman,
Ritual and religious prosperity began;
After all, Song Gong can be upright,
The dregs do not give up the two full names.
After the eldest princess of Huyang was rejected by Song Hong, Emperor Guangwu was particularly merciful and generously gifted property. Therefore, the princess supported hundreds of domestic slaves. There are good and bad among the domestic slaves, and there is a man who leans on the power to run rampant in the city, and hides in the master's house after killing people during the day, and the magistrate is inconvenient to arrest and become an unsolved case.
One day the princess went out to wander, that is, let the pale head ride proudly. Luoyang ordered Dong Xuan to wait many times because of the previous case, but he happened to meet the princess, so he parked the car and dismounted and stopped in front of the princess. The princess angrily yelled at Dong Xuan. Dong Xuan pulled out his saber and slashed the ground, reprimanding the princess for arson and slavery as a violent crime. On the one hand, he made the cangtou get out of the car, and the cangtou had no choice but to get out of the car to apologize. How do you know that Dong Xuan waved the treasure knife in his hand, and he was about to split his head into two sections; Then let the princess pass. The princess was inconvenient and quarreled for a while, and after returning to the palace, she cried to the emperor. Emperor Guangwu couldn't help but be angry, and immediately summoned Dong Xuan to enter, and accused him of rushing into the princess, so that the left and right were in charge of Xuan. Dong Xuan kowtowed and said, "Rong Chen said a word, and then executed!" Emperor Guangwu said angrily: "What do you say? Dong Xuan said: "Your Majesty's holy virtue is prosperous, but the eldest princess is ordered to set slaves and kill people, how to rule the world?" Don't be angry, please commit suicide! As he spoke, he banged his head against the pillar and bled profusely. Emperor Guangwu heard the words and discerned the colors, and also felt that Dong Xuan was right, so he asked Xiaohuangmen to hold Dong Xuan from bumping again, but asked him to thank the princess. Dong Xuan refused to obey, and then Xiao Huangmen grabbed Xuantou and asked him to kowtow to the princess. Dong Xuan refused to bow down with both hands. The princess looked back at Emperor Guangwu and said: "Uncle Wen hid his life when he was clothed, and the servants did not dare to come to the door. Emperor Guangwu smiled: "The Son of Heaven is different from Buyi. At this point, Dong Xuan said: "The strong order can go out!" Dong Xuan came out according to the order.
Dong Xuanzi Shaoping, Chen Liuren, later died of illness in the fifth year of his tenure, at the age of 74. There is an edict to send an envoy to see, only a cloth is covered with corpses, wives cry to each other, only a few barley in the inner room, a car ride, so that people also report to Emperor Guangwu. Emperor Guangwu sighed very much and ordered a doctor's ceremony to be buried. The historian was included in the biography of the cool official because he had just been killed. But he is not afraid of being strong and very honest, and he is a good official.
However, it is said that in the last years of the new dynasty, Jia Fu worked as a small official in Champion County, which can be regarded as a civil servant. Soon, the Green Forest Army started the violent mode, and Wang Mang's regime quickly collapsed, and the world became not the most chaotic, but more chaotic. Jia Fu couldn't be a civil servant with peace of mind, so he had to gather hundreds of people to become the king of the mountain.
In 23 A.D., the first emperor Liu Xuan destroyed the new mang, and Liu Jia, a son of the clan, was named the king of Hanzhong. As a native of Nanyang, Liu Jia wrote an enthusiastic letter to Jia Fu, and Jia Fu led the crowd to join Liu Jia, and was immediately appointed as a lieutenant and returned to the civil service establishment.
The name of the first emperor does not match the truth, not only does not change with the people, but makes the world more and more collapsed. Jia Fu persuaded Liu Jia to break away from Liu Xuan as soon as possible and set up his own banner. But Liu Jia refused to betray Liu Xuan. However, he saw that Jia Fu would not stay here and wait for death with peace of mind, so he wrote to his cousin Liu Xiu to recommend Jia Fu.
At this time, Liu Xiu had gradually come out of the trough with the help of Deng Yu. Jia Fu met Deng Yu first, and the two chatted with the folk voice. Deng Yu prides himself on being young and erudite, but he didn't expect that the young fellow was more erudite than himself, and his martial arts were so outstanding, and his ideals were so lofty, so he immediately recommended it to Liu Xiu.
Liu Xiu immediately summoned Jia Fu and talked about it, Liu Xiu liked Jia Fu very much, and immediately appointed him as the general of the prisoner, responsible for supervising the army and arresting thieves, and specially rewarded him with the left horse of his car.
In this way, those colleagues who are older than Jia Fu can't stand it anymore, and they have arranged Xiao Jia's no, and begged Liu Xiu to change him to the county lieutenant of Shanxian County, not to become a general all of a sudden, after all, a fifteen-year-old general is too eye-catching, which makes everyone feel uncomfortable.
Liu Xiu was unmoved after listening to everyone's criticism, and he solemnly said to everyone: "Don't think that Jia Du despises him when he is young, I think Jia Du has the divine power to break the enemy for thousands of miles, and he is qualified for the post of general." Besides, he has just taken up this position, how can he be removed at will? ”
After Liu Xiu arrived in Xindu, he worshiped Jia Fu as a partial general. In May of the same year, Liu Xiu got rid of Wang Lang, who had chased him in embarrassment, and Jia Fu moved the capital to protect the general because of his merits. In the ensuing battle against the Qingcalf Peasant Army, Jia Fu took the lead in defeating the enemy, and the generals had to believe that this little brother who came from behind was really brave.
In April 25 AD, a peasant army of the Five Schools, which arose in Hebei and usually operated mainly in the Puyang area of Henan, was inseparable from Liu Xiu's army. At this time, Jia Fu was covered with a white robe, wearing silver armor, and dancing a silver halberd in his hand to rush to the enemy's ramparts. Jia Fu's silver halberd was flying, the war horses were jubilant, and the enemy soldiers were dying next to each other, and they were about to chisel through the enemy formation. Suddenly, one of the enemy generals took advantage of his unpreparedness, raised his spear and stabbed Jia Fu, Jia Fu was anxious to flash, and a big knife came to the head of the car again, Jia Fu had to let the knife go, and received a shot alive. The spear pierced the silver armor with a sharp edge, leaving a deep scar on his lower abdomen.
Jia Fu didn't care about bandaging, turned the silver halberd and stabbed the enemy general off the horse, and then dragged the intestines that slipped out of the wound to break the formation. The Han army was greatly encouraged, and they rushed into the Fifth School Army as if they were not going to die, and suddenly there was an irrepressible loosening of the strong formation, and some frightened Fifth School sergeants began to turn around and flee. Jia Fu, who had just rushed through the enemy formation, ripped off his battle robe and hastily bandaged it, came back again, and the silver halberd was swung out frequently, each time bringing up a blood mist. Seeing that General Jia Fu was so brave, the sergeants of the fifth colonel had no intention of fighting again, and hurriedly scattered and fled.
I don't know how long it took, Jia Fu opened his eyes, and his face was full of exhaustion after losing too much blood. He saw Liu Xiu holding his hand and crying. The general smiled and said: "Jia Fu is fortunate not to disgrace his life, the lord should not be sad!" Hearing Jia Fu's words, Liu Xiu was even more heartbroken, choked up and said to him: "General Gu Suzhi is loyal and brave to the enemy, and often charges into battle. How can he meet a general, it is really a blessing. Hearing that the general's wife is pregnant, if the general does not give up, he is willing to marry the general, and if your wife gives birth to a daughter, let her son marry her; If a son is born, Lone's daughter will marry him. In short, don't let the general worry about his wife and children! The young general's eyes were filled with tears when he said this, and he fainted in excitement. Liu Xiuyan ordered the medical officer to provide emergency rescue.
Liu Xiu relied on Jia Fu's procrastination battle to defeat the peasant army of the Five Schools, but he started a bad habit of marriage that later generations blamed. Liu Xiu's original intention was to express his hospice care for Jia Fu, a person's intestines flowed out, blood came out like pulp, and he still fought with a halberd, under ancient medical conditions, the probability of cure was almost zero, and it was understandable that Liu Xiu cared about the general's aftermath in advance. However, with Liu Xiu taking the lead, what is favored by the upper and lower must be worse, and the bad habit of fingering for marriage has been inherited to this day.
However, Liu Xiu, who was a golden mouth, later broke the appointment, and later Jia Fu's wife gave birth to a son smoothly, but none of Liu Xiu's five princesses married the Jia family, and it was not until Jia Fu's great-grandson Jia Jianshi married the eldest princess of Linying, the emperor.
That year, Jia Fu broke through from the clutches of death, and he miraculously returned from his injuries. After that, he followed Liu Xiu to capture Yecheng, an important town in Hebei.
In June of the same year, Liu Xiu was proclaimed emperor in Qianqiu Pavilion in Shanxian County. Jia Fu was the champion of Jinwu because of his merits, and he was promoted to the champion marquis. At this time, Jia Fu was only sixteen years old. Jia Fu became the champion Hou two years before Huo Quai, and his appointment as the ruling Jinwu was Liu Xiu's dream back then. It can be seen that although Liu Xiu broke his promise on the marriage of his children, he still took care of Xiao Jia in other aspects.
After that, Jia Fu crossed the surging river with Wu Han and went to Luoyang to fight against the Great Sima Zhu Kun of the First Emperor. At that time, there were still more than 300,000 people under Zhu Kun and Chen Qiao, the White Tiger Gong, and the army led by Wu Han also had more than 200,000 people.
Jia Fu's main opponent at that time was Chen Qiao. It's a pity that he met Jia Fu, who specializes in tough battles, and he can only admit that he is unlucky, Chen Qiao has been defeated repeatedly, and finally he was killed out of the list of historical celebrities, and even Du Niang can't find him. Because of Jia Fu's big victory over Chen Qiao, he added Fengqi and Chaoyang two counties to eat.
Liu Xiu captured Luoyang and surrendered Liu Xuan's main force, which established his dominant position in the Han Dynasty in one fell swoop. However, there are still many generals of the original regime who have not been dealt with, and they still pose a threat to the Jianwu regime by supporting their own troops. For example, Yin Zun, the king of Yun who was crowned by the first emperor, refused to lie down. Liu Xiu's persuasion was fruitless, so he summoned the generals to ask who was willing to go and destroy Yin Zun. Jia came back to the squad and said: "Please hit Yin Zun!" Liu Xiu laughed: "Zhijin Wu is willing to fight Yin Zun, I don't have to worry about it!" ”
So Liu Xiu immediately sent Jia Fu to lead the cavalry commander Yin Zhi (Liu Xiu's eldest brother) and the cavalry general Liu Zhi to cross Wushejin to attack Yin Zun. There is an old and serious Uncle Yin Guo, who can just control Jia Fu's unnecessary impulses. The three complemented each other and cooperated tacitly, and it only took more than a month to beat Yin Zun to raise the flag.
In 55 AD, the resolute and upright Jia Fu died of illness at the age of 46, nicknamed "Gang". After Jia Fu's death, he returned to his hometown to bury the champion, and the champion Hou died and returned to the champion, which can be said to be well-deserved.
In February of the second year of the Middle Yuan Dynasty, Emperor Guangwu was old and weak, and he returned to heaven in the front hall of the South Palace, and his son Liu Zhuang succeeded to the throne, respected the queen Yin as the queen mother, and buried Emperor Guangwu in the original mausoleum, and the temple number was the ancestor.
Liu Jing, the king of Shanyang, is the same brother of Emperor Ming, and he likes to harm people. He pretended to be the great Honglu Guo Guo and wrote a letter to Liu Qiang, the king of the East China Sea, who was surprised when he read it. But see what is written:
Gaozu started the pavilion chief, and the first emperor Xingbaishui. The king is the eldest son of the first emperor, when he asks the world to avenge his mother, the sincerity of the gold and stone is open, and the autumn frost is not the sheep; May the king be the emperor of the ancestors, not the prince of Qin, and call the heavens in vain!
The book came but there was no signature, and the person who came said that it was written by Da Honglu Guo Guo. Guo Guo is Liu Qiang's maternal uncle, Liu Qiang does not ask whether it is true or not, and he will hand over the books to Emperor Ming for investigation. Emperor Ming quickly found out the truth, it turned out that Liu Jing, the king of Shanyang, did it, and he wanted to compete with the clam for the fisherman's profit. Emperor Ming remembered that he and he were brothers of the same mother, and Emperor Guangwu was ordered to return to the country after the funeral.
Liu Jing saw that Emperor Ming didn't move him, thinking that he could do it a little bigger. In the tenth year of Yongping, the Qiang rebelled, and Liu Jing followed at the same time, but before he could do anything, Emperor Ming renamed him the king of Guangling.
But Liu Jing still didn't want to repent, and after arriving at the fiefdom, he asked Xiangshi in private: "I look like the first emperor, the first emperor won the world at thirty, and I am also thirty years old this year, can I raise an army?" "I will deal with it, and report it to the magistrate as soon as it comes out. The magistrate immediately heard about it, and Emperor Ming cut his guards and retinue, and did not pursue it too much.
Soon Liu Jing arranged for a sorcerer to curse Emperor Ming, and the prime minister was only afraid that he would be guilty, so he reported it in detail, and the courtiers impeached him and cursed him. Before Emperor Ming could issue an edict, Liu Jing committed suicide. Why rebel against such cowardice? Emperor Ming was particularly merciful because he was the same brother and gave him the title of King Si. and named his son Yuanshou as the Marquis of Guangling, and the other three sons as the Marquis of Xiangling.
Liu Ying, the king of Chu, was born to Xu Meiren, and the Xu family was not favored, so although Liu Ying was crowned king, the country was the poorest. Emperor Ming was close to his relatives, but he also gave rewards repeatedly, but Liu Ying had no hopes, made friends with guests and coveted artifacts, and made golden turtles and jade cranes in the feudal country, engraved with Fu Rui, and actively prepared for rebellion.
Suddenly, a man, Yan Guangyi, changed his mind and impeached Liu Ying, the king of Chu, for misconduct. Emperor Ming got the book and handed it over to the department for review. Some divisions sent personnel to find out the recital, and it was slightly said that Liu Ying, the king of Chu, had recruited treacherous and fabricated diagrams, and he should be sentenced to death for his great rebellion. Emperor Ming took the title of Liu Ying, migrated Liu Ying to Danyangjing County, and gave Muyi 500 households; He also sent the Great Hung Lu to escort him, so that the musicians, slaves, and maids advocated and accompanied him. The Empress Dowager of Chu, Xu, did not have to return the scarf and still stayed in the Chu Palace.
Before the king of Chu rebelled, someone told Yu Yan that Yu Yan did not raise it because he was a close relative of Emperor Ming. After Yan Guang sued, Emperor Ming reprimanded Yu Yan for not playing, and Yu Yan committed suicide in fear of sin. Liu Ying was afraid that she would also suffer a strange disaster, so she simply committed suicide. In fact, the king of Chu is the younger brother, and Emperor Ming may not have killed him.
Empress Guo's two sons, Liu Kang and Liu Yan, also made friends in the feudal kingdom and plotted against them, but because they were not as serious as Liu Jing and Liu Ying, they were only reduced to fiefdoms.
When Liu Zhuang was the crown prince, Dr. Huan Rong was his teacher. Later, he succeeded to the throne as the emperor, "still honoring Huan Rong as a teacher". After Huan Rong fell ill, Liu Zhuang sent people to make a special trip to condole, and even visited the door in person, every time he visited the teacher, Liu Zhuang got off the car and walked to the street as soon as he entered the street to show respect. After entering the door, he often held the teacher's hand and wept silently, and he went for a long time. The emperor was like this to Huan Rong, and the other people who asked about the disease naturally did not dare to take the car to the door, and they all bowed under the bed. When Huan Rong died, Liu Zhuang also changed his clothes to send the funeral in person, and made proper arrangements for his children.
