Chapter 512 The originator of tofu
Liu Chang not only did not use Han law in Huainan, but also appointed officials at all levels, and the small Huainan Kingdom became another country that was not under the rule of the Han Dynasty.
Later, Liu Chang secretly sent people to collude with the crown prince Qi and others, and planned to unite the Minyue and the Huns to join forces to rebel, it is obvious that it is not easy for a prince like Liu Chang to achieve a great thing, his plot was soon discovered by the imperial court, and he himself was arrested and taken to the capital.
Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty did not punish Liu Chang to death according to the law because of his brotherly love, but exiled him to Shu County, Liu Chang died of hunger strike on the way to distribution, and was posthumously called the King of Huainan Li, after Liu Chang's death, Huainan was canceled and returned to the central management.
Two years later, Emperor Wen of Han remembered Liu Chang's younger brother who committed suicide, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt bad in his heart, so he issued an edict to seal Liu Chang's four sons who were only seven or eight years old, and later, Emperor Wen of Han issued an edict again, dividing the original Huainan Kingdom into three and giving them to Liu Chang's three sons, of which the eldest son Liu An inherited his father's title and served as the king of Huainan.
Liu An is good at reading and playing the piano, does not like to gallop hunting dogs and horses, concentrates on governing the country and the country, writes books and says, Liu An loves the virtuous and thirsty, Corporal Lixian, Huainan Shouchun has become a place where literati gather, Liu An and the guests wrote "Huainan Zi", there are 21 articles of "Inner Chapter", 33 articles of "Outer Chapter", two articles of "Taoist Training", and 82 poems of "Huainan Wang Fu", 44 articles of "Qunchen Fu", four articles of "Huainan Song and Poetry", 19 volumes of "Huainan Miscellaneous Stars", and "Huainan Wanbishu", the content is all-encompassing, including many thoughts.
Liu Anhao Huangbai art, convened scattered cultivators, Taoists, Confucianists, Langzhong and Jianghu practitioners of alchemy medicine, the most famous are Sufi, Li Shang, Tian You, Lei Quilt, Wu Quilt, Jin Chang, Mao Quilt, Zuo Wu, known as the "Eight Princes", in Shouchun Beishan to build a furnace alchemy. Occasionally, it became tofu, and Liu An was respected as the originator of tofu, and Bagong Mountain was also named after it.
It is said that Liu An is a filial son, and during his mother's illness, Liu An used soaked soybeans to grind soybean milk and add maltose to his mother every day, and Liu's mother loved to drink it very much. After that, Liu's mother's illness soon recovered, and since then, soy milk has gradually become popular among the people.
Liu An's idea of controlling the country is Lao Tzu's inaction, improving Taoist thought, not following the first law, not abiding by the old rules, following the laws of nature to formulate a series of policies to punish lightly and encourage production, make good use of talents, sympathize with the people, so that Huainan has a scene of national peace and security.
Although Liu An's statecraft policy was supported by the people. However, in that era of exclusive respect for Confucianism, the Taoist ideas he pursued were repeatedly slandered, and Emperor Wu sent troops into Huainan on charges of Liu An's "conspiring with guests, following the people, and doing rebellious things", and sent many Confucian disciples to besiege and kill Liu An.
Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty admired Liu An's talent very much. However, the ruling ideology of "overthrowing the hundred schools of thought and respecting Confucianism alone" strongly promoted by him was at odds with the Taoist doctrine of inaction advocated by Liu An. And the death of his father Liu Chang has become a dead knot in Liu Anxin, so while Liu An is holding a wide range of guests for academic discussions, he is also constantly accumulating strength to prepare for a rebellion one day, but. Like his father, Liu An's rebellion had not yet had time to be carried out, and it came to an end due to the complaint of Menkelei, as well as the informant of Menkewu and grandson Liu Jian.
Huainanzi was besieged by many great Confucians and fled into the Jixia School Palace. Dedicated to learning, I don't know why today, I actually went to Langyuan Immortal Island and asked to meet Feiyang.
Feiyang is the same son of a hundred schools as him, so naturally he can't be seen, otherwise, the students of the hundred schools will criticize him for being in power once he is in power, and he will ignore his peers, so he let the disciples invite this Huainanzi in.
"Meet the head of the Xuan family", although he is also one of the sons of the hundred families, but his own miscellaneous family is far inferior to the Xuan family, for so many years, it is a great luck to be able to keep the Taoist system from extinction, and his strength is far inferior to Feiyang, he is also a true immortal, and he is not as good as agarwood, which has only been cultivated for more than ten years, let alone a quasi-saint powerhouse like Feiyang.
"I've seen the head of the miscellaneous family, the head of the miscellaneous family is not in the Jixia School Palace, what do you do here", Fei Yang asked even though his tone was not respectful but not arrogant.
"In the next place, there is a benefit, dedicated to the head of the Xuan family", Huainanzi naturally couldn't be angry because Feiyang was disrespectful to him, and immediately said in a proper manner.
"Benefits", as soon as Feiyang heard this, he was speechless for a while, Kunpeng looked for him before, and wanted to give him a benefit, how can this Huainanzi now look for him, and also give him a benefit, moreover, Emperor Wu of Han caused him to be hunted down, although he escaped, but the family was unlucky, and Feiyang helped Emperor Wu of Han to pacify the witch curse, Huainanzi should not have a good impression of him, how could he send him benefits.
"What are the benefits of the head of the miscellaneous family, I want to give it to the next."
"I found an innate spiritual treasure in Xia, although I couldn't get my hands on it, but I knew his whereabouts, and I was willing to tell the head of the Xuan family the whereabouts of this spiritual treasure, in exchange for the head of the Xuan family, the protection of my miscellaneous family, help my miscellaneous family, and resist the continuous suppression of the Xuan family."
"This Liu An is very calculating, his cultivation of true immortals, even if he gets the innate spirit treasure, he is not guilty of his crimes, it is better to give it to the power and get the protection of the power, but if it is just a low-grade and medium-grade spirit treasure, I am not stupid, and I can't go against the current prosperity of Confucianism for such a treasure", Feiyang suddenly muttered in his heart.
Seeing that Feiyang didn't speak, Huainanzi, as one of the sons of the hundred families, was also an old man, and saw what Feiyang was thinking, "I know that the powerful cultivation of the Xuanjia family's quasi-saint should not be interested in ordinary treasures, but this treasure that I know in Xia is a top-grade innate spirit treasure."
"Top-grade innate spirit treasure", Feiyang's first thought was not why he would know such a treasure, but ...... Immediately, he asked, "Since you have a top-grade innate spiritual treasure, why don't you sue the second son of Lao Zhuang in exchange for the protection of your miscellaneous family by the Taoists."
This Huainanzi, although he is the director of each family, but in the final analysis, the most admired is the Taoist doctrine, otherwise how would he pursue the rule of inaction, and he was unlucky at this point, at that time, Confucianism was about to flourish, how could he be willing to sit idly by, Huainanzi implemented Taoism, and affected their great prosperity, which would send dozens of Confucian Confucians to besiege and kill him at once.
"At that time, I admired Taoism, and when I implemented the rule of inaction in Huainan, I established a small country with a small country and a widow Lao Tzu's ideal country, but when I was hunted down by Confucianism later, Taoism did not take any action, which naturally made me unwilling, found treasures, and did not want to fall into the hands of Taoists."
