History live broadcast: the beginning is Qin Shihuang's live broadcast of the subjugation of th

"Originally, with the support of General Wei Qing, it was difficult for anyone to unseat the crown prince, but unfortunately Wei Qing died of illness."

"So Jiang Chong took advantage of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty's superstition about ghosts and gods, and set up a trap to trick the prince Liu Zhi into using witchcraft to curse Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty."

"With the support of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Jiang Chong conducted a purposeful and thorough investigation."

"This incident is connected with the time when Zhu Anshi sued Gongsun Jingsheng. People have to wonder whether Jiang Chong sent someone to help Zhu Anshi secretly. He first broke the prince's arm and then attacked the prince."

"It seems that Mrs. Gou Ge at that time was suspected to have given birth to a child after 14 months. From a modern medical point of view, it is impossible. Either the historical records at that time were exaggerated, or it was Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty~" Zhang Yanxi did not say I didn’t finish the last few words, but everyone knew what I was going to say next.

Cao Cao: Otherwise what? Miss Zhang has to finish her words.

Cheng Yaojin: Can you really pretend? Not sure?

Zhu Di: Cao Cao has to dare to speak, haha!

Mrs. Gou Ge: My concubine gave birth in more than nine months, this historian is harming me!

Liu Bang: Liu Che! Check it out! Everyone understands!

Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty: Check this concubine yourself! I suspect that your concubine is the mastermind behind the witchcraft disaster.

Liu Che: Maybe there will be different results.

"Shortly after the "witchcraft disaster" ended, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty began to regret that he was mean and unkind to the prince, which made him have to rebel."

"So while he was remembering the prince, he ordered the eradication of those who had contributed to the "scourge of witchcraft"."

"These people were originally ordered by the emperor to suppress the prince, but ended up dying because the emperor went back on his word."

"The ancients said, "Accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger." However, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was more terrifying than a tiger."

"The "witchcraft disaster" caused Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and Prince Liu Ju to have "sons rebel against their fathers, and fathers to kill their sons," and led to the execution of the queen, the prince, and a large number of upper-level figures in the court."

"This not only seriously damaged the authority of the royal family, but also greatly shook the foundation of the Han Dynasty."

"Although Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty wrote a written edict, he still faced the embarrassing situation of not having a suitable heir. In the end, he had to pass the throne to Liu Fuling, who was only eight years old. As a result, Huo Guang's monopoly was created."

Liu Che: Huo Guang?

Yang Jian: There are a few people who were in power at a young age and still survived. Not everyone is the First Emperor. Only after hearing the history again and again can we realize how terrible and powerful his victory was!

Li Shimin: Yes! It is said that Qin Shihuang Ying Zheng was a tyrant, and we think so too, but now we know how difficult it is to do what he did.

Liu Che: So Huo Guang killed Liu Fuling?

Zhao Kuangyin: I didn’t kill him, but Huo Guang was also in power at that time.

Huo Qubing: How could my brother do this? How could he be a traitor!

"No, no, no, no, no, General Huo is overthinking. Huo Guang is definitely not a treacherous minister. In my opinion, he is not. But in ancient times, it depends on how you see ministers controlling government affairs?"

"But the emperor at that time was only eight years old! How could he, Huo Guang, who was so powerful, be called a traitor?"

"I will tell you about Huo Guang's deeds, and you can evaluate whether he is a loyal or treacherous minister."

"Huo Guang was born in Pingyang, Hedong. His father was just a minor official in a county, but Huo Guang's elder brother was Huo Qubing, who was a hussar general at the time."  "Speaking of Huo Qubing, everyone knows that he is a household name. Although he served in the army for seven years Although he was short-lived, he won the entire army in the first battle and was awarded the title of champion. The "Feng Lang Ju Xu" even caused "the Huns fled far away, and there was no royal court in Monan".

"Although Huo Qubing died young, his achievements are admired by all generations."

"As the younger brother, Huo Guang is a bit inferior. Many people even know Huo Qubing but not Huo Guang."

"However, having a brother with unparalleled martial arts and outstanding military exploits, and the support of the huge Wei family, Huo Guang is equally extraordinary."

"Not only did he become a supreme minister step by step, but he was also the first person to depose an emperor since the Six Dynasties."

"By chance, Huo Guang, who was only in his teens at the time, was taken to Chang'an by General Huo Qubing and lived with him."

"Huo Guang was already very smart at the time. With Huo Qubing's help, Huo Guang soon entered the imperial court and held an important position."

"Whether it is Wei Qing, Huo Qubing or Huo Guang, their rise is very sudden."

"On the one hand, the heroes during the periods of Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty and Emperor Wenwen of the Han Dynasty either died of old age or illness, and under the emperor's suppression, it was difficult for their descendants to regain the power of their ancestors."

"On the other hand, the power of relatives was needed to compete with the Empress Dowager and the Queen Mother's party, so they promoted their own queen Wei Zifu and his family. Fortunately, Wei Qing and Huo Qubing were both generals who were good at conquering and fighting. Under the favor of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Soon the Weihuo clan became the new rich of the Han Dynasty."

"And under the care of his brother Huo Qubing, Huo Guang was appointed as a Langguan, and then moved to various Cao officials, servants, and other officials, which established a good political foundation."

"Huo Guang is cautious and careful in his work. He has not made a single mistake in more than 20 years of serving Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. Therefore, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che trusts him very much."

"There is a saying in historical records to describe Huo Guang, "Guang was a calm and thoughtful man, seven feet three inches tall, fair, with sparse eyebrows and beautiful beard." It can be seen that he was a standard handsome man."

"When Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty almost killed all his son's relatives due to the "Witch Rebellion", he chose eight-year-old Liu Fuling as his crown prince and designated Huo Guang as the Great Sima General. This was obviously Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty's affection for Huo Guang. Extremely trusted and valued.”

"Thus, Huo Guang became a powerful minister below one person and above ten thousand people at that time."

"Emperor Zhao of the Han Dynasty, who ascended the throne as emperor, has always admired Huo Guang's talents and believed that he had the ability to govern the country."

"So, during the period of Emperor Zhao of the Han Dynasty, Huo Guang took over the power, and he adopted a series of policies that enabled the Western Han Dynasty's national power to develop to a certain extent."

"Even though he is a very popular minister, Huo Guang is still cautious, walking on thin ice, not daring to have any inappropriate thoughts, and has always been dedicated to assisting the young emperor."

"Another Tuogu minister, Shangguan Jie, was friends with Huo Guang, and the two were also married. However, Huo Guang objected to the six-year-old Shangguan becoming the queen, and objected to the Shangguan family's decision to confer the title of Marquis on Ding, the adulterer of Princess Gai, the elder sister of Emperor Zhao. With the request of Dr. Guanglu, he repeatedly prevented other relatives of the Shangguan family from being appointed officials."

"During the time of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Shangguan Jie had already been ranked among the nine ministers, and his official position was above Huo Guang. Now the Shangguan family "has the weight of the palace in the jiaofang, and the queen has a daughter." All these combined are not as good as Huo Guang. Shangguan Jie was jealous of Huo Guang's ability to dominate court affairs, so he began to fight for power with Huo Guang."

"In order to bring down Huo Guang, Shangguan Jie and his son teamed up with Princess Gai, who was resentful for not being able to knight her lover, Sang Hongyang, the imperial censor who couldn't allow his relatives to serve as officials, and King Dan of Yan, who was resentful of his brother. In the name of King Yan, he said that Huo Guang was a treacherous minister and wanted to push him away."
