Video spoilers history, starting with the blitzkrieg on Poland

The sky curtain continues, and also shows the absurd and unruly Liu He in film and television dramas.

And the scene where Huo Guang deposed him.

[Huo Guang chose an emperor, but he couldn't stand it and deposed him in less than a month.]

【This was also a big mistake made by Huo Guang. 】

[The fact that he deposed and enthroned the emperor as a minister created his biggest black mark. ]

【Liu He was deposed, and the throne was vacant again. 】

【At this time, the whole court suddenly realized: Wait! Have we forgotten about the emperor's great-grandson who was feeding pigs among the people?】

[After some investigation, Huo Guang learned that Liu Bing had grown up in the palace.]

[At the age of 18, he was not only well-read, but also frugal, kind and loving.]

[Looks like a good emperor material. ]

【So Huo Guang reported to the Empress Dowager, suggesting that Liu Bingyi be made emperor.】

【Liu Bingyi, surrounded by the crowd, entered the Weiyang Palace.】

[He first met the Empress Dowager and was conferred the title of Marquis of Yangwu.]

【Afterwards, the ministers presented the seal and ribbon, and Liu Bingyi officially ascended the throne and paid homage to the Emperor Gao, becoming the tenth emperor of the Western Han Dynasty, known in history as Emperor Xuan of Han.】

【Liu Bingyi went from being a commoner to becoming the ruler of the world.】

[Thus opened a new chapter in his legendary life. ]

【Why did Huo Guang choose Liu Bingyi? 】

[Perhaps it was because he saw that Liu Bingyi was a talented person and a good candidate to be an emperor.]

[Perhaps because they felt that Liu Bingyi had no background and was easy to control.]

[But in any case, after Liu Bingyi ascended the throne, the power of the Han Dynasty was still in the hands of Huo Guang. ]

[After the death of Emperor Wu of Han, Huo Guang served under Emperor Zhao and King Changyi, becoming a veteran of three dynasties and having great power in the government and the country. ]

[The Huo family's power is so intertwined that they almost control the entire court.]

[Faced with such a powerful Huo family group, Liu Bingyi knew that he had just ascended the throne and his foundation was unstable, so he could not rashly confront Huo Guang. ]

[Otherwise, the same fate would have befallen Liu He, the King of Changyi.]

[So, he chose to remain silent and accumulate strength. ]

【When Huo Guang proposed to return power to the emperor. 】

【Liu Bingyi showed great trust and respect for Huo Guang. 】

【Not only did he reject Huo Guang's request to return power, he also continued to entrust him with important tasks and let Huo Guang continue to preside over the government. 】

[In order to further dispel Huo Guang's suspicion.]

【Liu Bingyi issued a series of edicts, highly praising Huo Guang for his contribution to the throne.】

[An additional 7,000 households were granted, bringing his fief to 17,000 households, the highest in the Western Han Dynasty.]

……

Outside the sky curtain, seeing this, Liu Che couldn't help but glare at Huo Guang who was standing in the audience.

Huo Guang, whose status was far from that high at that time, was already scared to death.

But he still managed to keep himself calm and stood there with a seemingly calm attitude.

He was neither in a hurry to explain nor showed any guilty expression.

Although Liu Che was somewhat angry, he did not rush to rebuke Huo Guang, but thought about it in his heart.

Huo Guang himself was very clear about his abilities.

When he died, it was very likely that he would let a talented young man like Huo Guang become the regent.

Don’t even mention that the original Liu Che in history would do this.

Even Liu Che, who is now in his prime and strong, has already seen it.

In addition, Huo Guang was a relative of Huo Qubing, so it was natural for him to trust him.

But if you think about it this way, the Huo family already has a general with great military achievements like Huo Qubing.

If Huo Guang in later generations became the regent minister again.

Then their power might indeed be a little too great.

However, judging from the content given on the sky curtain.

The power that Huo Guang possessed was not obtained through illegal means.

But I arranged it myself.

It was he who asked Huo Guang to assist the new emperor, and why did the new emperor need a regent?
It was because he accidentally killed Crown Prince Liu Ju!

So, the problem lies with myself.

The edict of repentance should have been issued long ago.

I did make a mistake.

After Huo Guang came to power, although he arbitrarily deposed and enthroned emperors, what role did he play as a powerful official in charge of the Han Dynasty?
Is he a complete careerist?
Or was he a powerful official like Lu Buwei, who threatened the imperial power but also made outstanding contributions to the Han Dynasty?
This point...may really need to be considered.

Moreover, although Huo Guang was very unhappy about deposing the emperor, he found a new emperor, Liu Bingyi, after deposing Liu He.

According to the sky curtain, he is the grandson of Crown Prince Liu Ju and has the legal right of inheritance.

At the same time, he was well-read, upright, and a potential emperor.

Tianmu has been watching for such a long time, and powerful officials in later generations have appeared on the scene quite a few times.

As a powerful official in charge of the world, it doesn't seem to be a bad thing for him to find a good emperor for the Han Dynasty.
It’s even worthy of recognition.

After all, if Liu He was really absurd, then Liu Bingyi would definitely be a better choice for the country. And if Huo Guang was really ambitious and wanted to completely override the imperial power.
He could even choose a child who was only a few years old to be emperor, so that he could at least guarantee a decade of peace of mind.

But Huo Guang did not do so.

So, how should Huo Guang be defined as a powerful official?

The sky continues.

……

[However, a certain historical anecdote may be able to slightly reflect Liu Bingyi's thoughts during this period.]

[After Liu Bingyi ascended the throne, the selection of the harem master became the focus of the court. ]

[At that time, Huo Guang's youngest daughter, Huo Chengjun, had not yet married. The ministers in the court speculated on the emperor's intentions and most of them were inclined to make Huo Chengjun the queen.]

[After all, Huo Guang played a great role in supporting Liu Bingyi, so this seemed to be a natural thing.]

【But in Liu Bingyi's heart, from beginning to end, there was only a place for his first wife Xu Pingjun. 】

[He and Xu Pingjun met and got to know each other among the common people. Although their married life was hard, they were very loving.]

[Faced with the ministers' proposal, Liu Bingyi did not directly refute it, but issued a meaningful edict. ]

[The edict stated: When I was poor and humble, I once had an old sword that I treasured very much.]

[Although I am in a high position now, I still miss that old sword. I hope you can help me find it. ]

[Once this edict was issued, the whole court was in an uproar. ]

[Smart people quickly understood Liu Bingyi's deep meaning.]

[This is to hint to everyone that even though he is now the emperor, he will never abandon his wife who has been with him through thick and thin.]

[When the ministers saw this, they jointly wrote a petition to make Xu Pingjun the queen.]

[This edict from Liu Bingyi seems to be euphemistic, but in fact it is firm.]

[It also left us with the allusion of "deep affection for an old sword". 】

……

When the barrage saw this, they all flew out.

"So affectionate, so affectionate!"

"This was the only thing Liu Bingji did not back down on when Huo Guang was alive."

"Love left in Nanyuan, deep feelings for the old sword, so sad and beautiful, I like it!"

"Liu Bingyi and Xu Pingjun knew each other in prison, and their relationship is very strong!"

"When I was little, I liked Huo Shuixian the most."

"I didn't expect Huo Shuixian to be a villain in history."

"Huo Shuixian is not a villain, but her position is indeed very awkward."

"It's a pity that Liu Bingyi was too sentimental and passed the throne to Gu Jian's son, which led to the country's decline. "

"The one who caused chaos in my family was the prince. I knew he was not very capable, but I still passed the throne to him."

"It is not a good thing for an emperor to be too sentimental."

……

The sky continues.

Huo Guang saw that Liu Bingyi insisted, and considering that the emperor usually cooperated, he did not force him.

[However, Huo Guang's wife Huo Xian was determined to make her daughter Huo Chengjun the empress.]

[She was very unwilling to see Liu Bingyi make Xu Pingjun the empress despite all the opposition.]

[In the third year of Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty, Empress Xu was ill when she was about to give birth, and the female doctor Chunyu Yan entered the palace to serve her.]

[Huo Xian did not tell the rest of the Huo family and found Chun Yuyan in private.]

[Chun Yuyan and Huo Xian were close friends. Under Huo Xian's coercion and inducement, Chun Yuyan mixed aconite powder into the pills prescribed by the imperial physician and fed them to Xu Pingjun, who was weak after giving birth.]

[After Empress Xu took the medicine, she died of the poison soon after.]

[Liu Bingyi was extremely saddened when he learned of the tragic death of his beloved wife, but due to the influence of Huo Guang, it was difficult for him to find out the truth.]

[Although Huo Guang was also dissatisfied with this matter, he naturally chose to protect the Huo family.]

【Liu Bingyi endured the severe pain in his heart and posthumously conferred the title of "Queen Gongai" on Empress Xu.】

[He buried her in the South Garden of Duling (also known as Shaoling), and told her to wait for him there.]

Seeing the protagonist who was deeply in love with Gu Jian being killed, the commentators were also very angry.

"What a pity, a model emperor couple was killed by Huo Guang's wife."

"Xu Pingjun was murdered at the age of 19."

"Huo Guang's family is finished."

"Huo Xian may not have consulted Huo Guang before doing this."

"Huo Guang really didn't know about this beforehand."

"Even Huo Guang's sons and daughters didn't know until the eve of their liquidation."

"When the Huo family rebelled in the end, they had no idea that Huo Xian was so abstract. They were stunned when the incident happened, and then they could only hastily prepare for the rebellion. "

《Before knowing that Huo Xian poisoned the Queen - Huo brothers: We have made contributions to the Han Dynasty! We have shed blood for the Han Dynasty! Emperor, you can't do this! I want to see His Majesty! 》

"After knowing that Huo Xian poisoned the Queen - Huo's brothers: Suddenly I felt that I was not wronged. "

"This is the importance of matching up in ancient times. Huo Guang's original wife would not do such a thing. Huo Xian was a concubine who became a wife, so she took Huo Guang's surname." (End of this chapter)
