2022-06-28

In China's more than 2000 years of feudal society, more than 400 emperors have emerged. So, are there any emperors who were born in Shandong and who were buried in Shandong after their death? In 2015, a tomb of Marquis haihun was excavated in Nanchang, Jiangxi Province, and tens of thousands of rare treasures of the Western Han Dynasty were unearthed. A large number of lacquerware inscriptions bear the word "Changyi", and many of them are dedicated to the emperor. Among them, the seal proving the identity of the tomb owner was also cleared out: Liu He. Historical records: Liu he was born in Juye, Shandong Province! From Changyi king to Emperor And then to haihunhou After Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, his youngest son liufuling inherited the throne of the Han Dynasty, namely emperor Zhao of the Han Dynasty. Liu Fuling, Emperor Zhao of the Han Dynasty, had no children. In 74 BC, Emperor Zhao of the Han Dynasty died, and his nephew, King Liu He of Changyi, succeeded him as the new emperor. Liu he lived in Changyi since he was a child and was lucky to become the emperor of the Han Empire. According to the Zizhi Tongjian, Liu He is a dandy. He is extravagant and does not pay attention to etiquette. When his grandfather Emperor Hanwu died, he was not filial and went hunting. On his way to Beijing to succeed to the throne, he also indulged his cronies in robbing beautiful women and acting recklessly. When he arrived at the gate of the capital, the ritual officer made him cry. He said, "I have a sore throat. I can't cry." When Liu he became emperor, he was even more unrestrained. He placed a group of followers from Changyi in the court, often drinking and discussing business with them. The ministers in the court could not stand it. They said that he was "dissolute and confused, lost the courtesy and friendship of the emperor, and disordered the Han system". They asked Liu He to be deposed and set up another office. According to the book of Han Dynasty: "(Huo) played the king he fornication, please abolish it." In the end, after only 27 days as emperor, he was abolished. When Liu he returned to Changyi after being abandoned, he became a man without identity. Huo Guang and the Empress Dowager did not embarrass him either. They thought that the things he had used were unlucky, which made him return to Juye from Chang'an. Some people also think that Liuhe is very deep. In the early days, he never showed his strength and saved his life. After the death of emperor Zhao, Huo Guang originally wanted to find a puppet emperor. Unexpectedly, after Liu he became emperor, he wantonly installed his followers in the court, excluded Huo Guang's cronies and threatened Huo Guang. Huo Guang first deposed Liu He. Many years later, Liu he was sent to Yuzhang County in the Yangtze River Valley and named Haihun marquis. He transported his belongings from Juye to haihun. Here, Liu he was reported for his contacts with local officials. After his death, the Marquis haihun was abolished. Liu he lived in Changyi for nearly 30 years and never returned to his hometown Juye again. After Liu he came to haihun Marquis, he always missed Changyi. The capital he built was also renamed Changyi, that is, nanchangyi. With the passage of time, it later evolved into Nanchang. Why is there no year of Liu He in the chronology of Chinese history? That is because Liu he was the emperor for only 27 days, which was very short, and he was the deposed emperor. Juye tomb It's actually an abandoned grave Liuhe died in Nanchang and was buried there. Why is there Liu He's tomb in Juye? Hanchangyi country is located in the lower reaches of the Yellow River Basin. The Yellow River often bursts and silts up. The ancient city of Changyi has been deeply buried underground. Hanchang is located in the southwest of Juye County today. Through exploration, the ancient Changyi city is located in Changyi, daxieji Town, Juye County. In the Xia and Shang Dynasties, the ancient Changyi was Jiafu state. At the beginning of the Western Zhou Dynasty, King Jifa of Wu granted uncle Mao, the son of Duke Zhou, the state of Mao. During the Warring States period, due to convenient transportation and important geographical location, people stationed troops and trade here, and gradually gathered to form a city - Changyi. In the Qin Dynasty, Changyi county was established. At the end of Qin Dynasty, Xiang Liang ordered Liu Bang and Peng Yue to attack Changyi county. At the beginning of the Western Han Dynasty, Liu Bang granted Peng Yue the title of king of the Liang Dynasty. His capital was Dingtao. Changyi was under his jurisdiction. At that time, Changyi was already a famous big city. After Peng Yue was killed, the capital of the state of Liang moved westward. Prince Liu Hui, LV Chan, the younger brother of empress Lu, Liu Yi, the fourth son of Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty, and Liu Wu, the second son of Empress Dowager Dou, were successively crowned king of Liang. After years of operation, the state of Liang became the most powerful feudal state in the Western Han Dynasty, with more jewelry and jade than the capital. When it was the largest, it had more than 40 cities. Liu Wu once helped his brother emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty maintain his political power and was deeply trusted. Later, he also wanted to be an emperor. After exposure, he stepped aside. In 144 BC, Liu Wu died, and the state of Liang was divided into five. The capital of the state of Shanyang was settled in Changyi. In 97 BC, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty made his son Liu Xiang king of Changyi and changed Shanyang into the state of Changyi. After his death, his son Liu he inherited the king of Changyi. Liu He buried his father in Juye Hongtu mountain. In the last century, he conducted archaeological excavation on Liu Xiang's tomb and unearthed more than 1000 cultural relics. At the south foot of Jinshan mountain nearby, Liu he started to select sites early to build his own tomb. But later, he was unexpectedly promoted, demoted and moved. After his death, Liu he was buried in Nanchang city. The unfinished tomb he built in Juye Jinshan was abandoned. Today, we can still clearly see the tomb path excavated that year. The tomb path is long and narrow, and the tomb room is spacious. The tomb path has been exposed for a long time, and has not been backfilled or deliberately damaged. There are a large number of later generations' steles on both sides of the tomb path. During the Jin and Yuan Dynasties, the abandoned tomb was transformed into a Buddhist temple. During the Yongping period, it became Changyi County under Shanyang County. During the reign of emperor Han'an, Yang Zhen, a famous incorruptible official, spent the night in Changyi on his way to become the governor of Donglai. His disciple Changyi ordered Wang Mi to give Yang Zhen ten jin of gold at night. Yang Zhen refused. Leave the world with the beautiful talk of "four knowledges". It happened right here. It is also the location of "misty rain in Changcheng", one of the eight scenic spots in Juye. In history, the Liuhe tomb in Jinshan has always been full of mystery. According to folklore, it was the first place where Qinshihuang spent the summer during his Eastern tour. According to the annals of Yanzhou Prefecture, this is the summer palace of the first emperor when he was on a cruise. It is also said that lishimin, king of Qin, had a rest here during the eastern expedition. Therefore, there is a more resounding name here - Qinwang summer resort. (outlook new era)
