Chapter 1 1. Not every Liu Xiu has a legend

The time when God wants to destroy Wang Mang is coming. Yesterday in history, Wang Mang stole the Liu family's imperial power; looking at the reality today, Wang Mang's position is in shambles, looking down, it turns out that many people are working hard, with a united effort, ready to dig his wall.Wang Mang took a closer look, and it was over, the one who rushed to the front and dug the most violently turned out to be a strange acquaintance. I say unfamiliar because I have never seen this person before; I say familiar because his technique of digging walls seems familiar.It seems that the sky has eyes, and it's not that they don't report things that hurt people, but it's just that the time has not yet come.

But if you want to see others digging the wall, don't rush, let's first look at the glorious growth history of the wall digging person in front of him. It is said that the first snow in the winter of 6 BC was a bit long and difficult.At that time, there was a palace in Jiyang, named Emperor Wu's Walking Palace, which was closed for many years.Jiyang ordered Liu Qin to open the palace and clean it up. He wanted to welcome the arrival of his fifth child here.After waiting until midnight, I finally heard a cry of heat, breaking the cold night sky. This child born in the dark is destined to bring light to the world.At that time, there were no lights and no fire in the palace, but when Liu Qin rushed to the delivery room, he found that his wife had given birth to a son.The Liu family did not lack sons. To Jiyang's surprise, the delivery room was filled with red light, like daytime.

Liu Qin immediately found a fortune teller to make a divination.The fortune teller told him that this was a good omen, and the child would be extremely valuable in the future.The child's father suddenly remembered that in that summer, his rice crops grew very well, with nine ears per stalk, larger than ordinary crops.In the dark, can all arrangements be God's will?Liu Qin was like a god possessed, so he named the child Liu Xiu. Legends are bizarre, myths are useful, but reality is cruel.The development history of Liu Xiu's family is to paraphrase the words of the old lady Jiujin written by Lu Xun, that is, one generation is not as good as the next.If counting from the great ancestor Liu Bang, Liu Xiu is the ninth grandson of Liu Bang.Counting the ninth world, it is more than two hundred years old, so far away that people feel unreliable.

Let's take a closer look.Liu Xiu's great-grandfather, Liu Wai, used to be a prefect; in the generation of his grandfather Liu Hui, he only served as a captain; and when his father Liu Qin, he only served as a county magistrate.But in Liu Xiu's generation, all the halo of the Liu family was like a cloud in the sky, completely swept away by the strong wind. Emperor Wu walked through the red light in the palace, which did not bring Liu Qin good luck.When Liu Xiu was nine years old, Liu Qin kicked his legs to the sky.Suffering strangled Liu Xiu's throat like a devil.In order to survive, he had to move, and lived with his brother and sister under the fence of his uncle Liu Liang.

Astrologers often say that throughout the ages, anyone who has accomplished great things and made great achievements in the world must be an extraordinary person.For extraordinary people, God will bestow an extraordinary appearance.After growing up, Liu Xiu's appearance became more and more amazing.Dakou, Longzhun, Rijiao, beautiful man, 7 feet 3 inches tall (about 1.73 meters). So, someone couldn't help exclaiming: This guy is simply a clone of Han Gaozu Liu Bang! It's a bit exaggerated, but not without reason.Du Fu, a poet of the Tang Dynasty, has a poem to prove it: the descendants of Emperor Gao are all long and accurate, and the dragon species is different from ordinary people.Long Zhun has a high nose, and the nose is rich and prosperous.In this world, there are more people with big mouths and tall noses, but there are fewer people with Changrijiao.

The sun angle is the bulge of the frontal horn bone.Physiographers say it is the look of a king. In the eyes of today's people, Liu Xiu's appearance is not only handsome, but also masculine.But in that era of war and chaos, being handsome can't be eaten as a meal. The so-called big mouth eats everywhere, and what you eat is only rough food. Suffering is a machine that can crush you or make you.Liu Xiu, who lives under the fence, has taught him to forbear and be afraid of things.His occupation is a small farmer, working at sunrise and resting at sunset. There are two elder brothers on Liu Xiu, the eldest brother is named Liu, and the second brother is named Liu Zhong.There are also two elder sisters, the elder sister Liu Huang is married and doing well; the second sister Liu Yuan is married and is not bad;

In that dynasty, a farmer who didn't want to grow good crops was definitely not a good farmer.Liu Ba couldn't catch up with good peasants in his life, he was just a gangster who wandered around the rivers and lakes. If he lived in a prosperous age, Liu might study hard, become an official, marry a wife, and have children.But this is just a hypothesis.He was forced to live in troubled times and wanted to stand out. Besides being a hooligan, was there a better way out?A corrupt government, like withered grass and trees, will eventually turn into passing clouds and rot into fertile soil.Then, after only a spring rain, countless rogue seeds were catalyzed, just like the garbage won Huhai, which gave birth to the great ancestor Liu Bang.

So at that time, Liu Chang compared himself to Liu Bang, and compared Liu Xiu to Gao Zu's second elder brother, Liu Xi, a small farmer.Liu wants to prove to everyone that he is the hope of the Liu family. If the Liu family wants to stand out, who else is there? The above thinking has been proved to be correct for quite a long time.However, the history is very funny. No one thought that it was not Liu Xiu who brought infinite glory to the Liu family in the end. Liu didn't see that Liu Xiu was conservative, but not pedantic; fearful, but not timid.One day, Liu Xiu told Liu that he was tired of staying at home and wanted to go out and see the world.Liu Xiu is not going to wander the rivers and lakes and idle around, but to learn art from a teacher.Where are you going?The masters of martial arts are all hidden in the caves; the masters who are famous for their literature and art are all in Chang'an.

By the way, the place Liu Xiu wants to go is Chang'an. Rebellion creates value, and reading changes destiny. On the road of life, I also want to forge my own path.In Liu Xiu's view, going to Chang'an to study is more realistic than those illusory martial arts. But Liu Xiu, who is eager to study, encounters a big problem: reading is also a career that costs money. He has no money, and neither does his family. What should I do?However, Liu Xiu, who was short of money, still went on the road.He lacks the money for studying, but he does not lack travel expenses.He had already figured it out, as long as he stepped into Chang'an, he would definitely not starve to death.Because in addition to his feet, he also has hands.There is no money to make, otherwise what would Bai Chang do with his hands.

The beautiful, enchanting and eerie city of Chang'an is like a smelting factory. If you are gold, Chang'an will give you a stage; if you are sand, it will sink you immediately.So, here is heaven and hell.It has never rejected the rich and powerful, nor has it rejected the vagabond.As long as you have the seeds, you can try them out. You may not be able to do it if you have the ability, but you must also have good luck.Whether Liu Xiu had good luck, he didn't know.To him, the world is like a beautiful swamp full of beautiful reeds.For the sight of reeds, he decided to cross the swamp and embrace them.

In any case, Liu Xiu came to Chang'an, the capital city of "thousands of people" in the hearts of the Han people.In the Han Dynasty, you had to learn from a teacher, and what you learned was nothing more than Confucian classics.Soon, Liu Xiu chose a major.What he studied was "Shangshu", and his teacher was Mr. Xu Ziwei, a doctor in the Han Dynasty. He was not particularly authoritative, but he was still an authoritative one. Compared to Chang'an, Baishui Township, Liu Xiu's hometown, is just a small place.The beautiful and majestic Chang'an City, which conceals signs of decay, opened Liu Xiu's vision.Here, his mind and soul are completely released.He found that in this world, there are more fun things than being a farmer. First of all, learning homework in Chang'an City is important, but not the most important.In addition to studying, Liu Xiu met many talented people.Soon, he was fascinated by politics and enjoyed talking about current events.Whenever there is a court meeting in Chang'an, Liu Xiu is always the first person to know about it.Ever since, Liu Xiu, a current affairs commentator, became famous among his classmates and the society. Liu Xiu became addicted to playing, but the problem came soon-the money in his pocket was about to be spent.Although Chang'an is beautiful, it is not a place to live for a long time.Did you just go back home?The answer is of course no. Life is alive, walking depends on the feet, labor depends on the hands.To come out to play around, in addition to having hands and feet, you must also have brains.Liu Xiu is short of money, very short of money.But he patted his head, and the way to get money was immediately available.He took his classmate Han Zi together and went to the street to buy a donkey.Do you know why he buys donkeys? If you say it out loud, you're not afraid of being fooled, Liu Xiu wants to rent out. In the Han Dynasty, you didn't have taxis or buses when you went out, but if you had money, you could enjoy the services of taxis or buses.At that time, their taxis were horse-drawn carriages; their big buses were bullock carts; their mini-buses were donkeys.Horses, cows, and donkeys were the best tools for transportation in the Han Dynasty. We know that in the era of Wenjing’s rule, Chang’an City was full of wealthy people, and people always felt ashamed to ride mares and young horses when they went in and out.Changed to today's saying, everyone has a private car, and they are all BMW series.If you have the nerve to drive a non-BMW car out for a stroll, it will definitely become a joke of others. But time has passed and circumstances have changed, it is not the same.When Liu Xiu went to Chang'an to study, the emperor was Wang Mang.In the current Chang'an City, if your family has a cow to ride, it will be a matter of glory to the ancestors.Therefore, it should be no problem for Liu Xiu and Classmate Han to raise money to rent out, cater to the market, and earn a small amount of money to spend. Before Liu Xiu, there were many people who had drifted west to Chang'an to seek employment or study, and there were many people who were too poor to make a sound.And Liu Xiu is the first person who pays for rental operations like this.Of course, he didn't have time to drive a taxi, so he hired a servant to be the driver, and picked up passengers on the streets of Chang'an.Huahua World Chang'an is like a big dye vat.After becoming a taxi boss, Liu Xiu's life seems to be getting richer and richer.He was obsessed with social activities again, making friends everywhere, fighting cocks and walking dogs. The prosperous life in Vientiane, like a dream, is gradually rinsing the small farmer Liu Xiu, creating a brand new Liu Xiu.
