Who was the first princess to marry the Huns in the Western Han Dynasty?
Speaking of pro-princesses in history, Wang Zhaojun and Princess Wencheng should be the most household names. However, what I want to say most is the first princess in history-Sara. When we keep telling the story of Wang Zhaojun and Princess Wencheng as an enduring story in history, don't forget the first Liu Xijun who made contributions to the Han nationality.

Speaking of Sara, first of all, we should introduce her life experience. Sara was originally the daughter of Liu Jian, the king of Jiangdu, and the granddaughter of Liu Fei, the half-brother of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. As early as 12 1 years ago, during the royal feud, Liu Jian, the father of Xijun, and Cheng Guang, the mother of Xijun, were executed for treason, which implicated their families and wiped out the three clans. Xijun survived his childhood, but his value plummeted. She grew up with the pity of her parents and relatives. Although she still maintains the identity of the royal family, the splendor of the royal family has nothing to do with her. The ups and downs of life experience and indifference to the world make the lonely western army taste the suffering of life and the helpless complex in the face of the cold world prematurely. Fortunately, Xijun, after all, has royal blood and natural beauty, so he was chosen as a princess at the age of 16.

In 140 BC, Emperor Liu Che ascended the throne. He opposed the pro-Xiongnu policy and made up his mind to invade the north by force, but failed to conquer it. At that time, there were more than 30 kingdoms of different sizes in the Han-Hungarian border area, most of which were controlled by Xiongnu. Only Wusun Kingdom (the most powerful kingdom in western countries) dared to compete with Xiongnu and was willing to associate with Han Dynasty. Zhang Qian, who was familiar with the situation in the western regions, suggested to Emperor Wu that he should contact Wusun with generous gifts and form an alliance with Wusun to deal with the Huns. Emperor Wu appreciated this and immediately sent Zhang Qian to see Wu Sun. After Zhang Qian was ordered to arrive in Wusunguo, he explained to Wusunguo Wang Kunmo that Emperor Wu was willing to form an alliance with Wusunguo. When Kunmo heard about it, he specially called ministers to discuss the matter, and sent messengers with dozens of good horses as gifts to accompany Zhang Qian to Chang 'an, thanking Emperor Han Xian for knowing the truth of the Central Plains.

When Wu Sun's emissary arrived in Chang 'an, what he saw was a magnificent scene, which made them envy. After returning to China, the emissary truthfully told King Kunmo what he saw and heard in Chang 'an. After hearing this, Kun Mo decided to accept Zhang Qian's proposal of alliance and marriage, and immediately sent an envoy to Chang 'an with a thousand horses as a wedding invitation to propose to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, indicating that friendship will last forever. After listening to the ambassador's statement, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty agreed to the marriage, and decided to let Sara, the princess of Jiangdu, leave the fortress.

In the sixth year of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty (BC 105), on his wedding day, the court sent hundreds of attendants, bands, handymen and maids to the western regions with a large amount of gold, silver and jewels. Because of the language barrier and living habits, Xijun was different from the Han nationality when he married Wusunguo, and Xijun was very uncomfortable. In particular, a young woman who is homesick, doesn't speak the language, and is as beautiful as flowers and pure as jade, marrying a 70-year-old Xin Mo has added a lot of sadness to her. From 2000 to 2008, my inner desire weaves a better life in the future. However, the reality does not allow me to make any choice. I can only listen to the fate and let the sand in the desert take away all my inner desires and hopes for the future. The girl's sentimental heart is even more miserable, so she wrote that well-known poem:

My family married me.

King Wusun in a foreign country.

The vault is a room, the carpet is a wall,

Eat meat and cheese as pulp.

I often feel homesick, and my heart is hurt.

I would like to go back to my hometown Huang Yi.

Although the content of the poem is plain and simple, it is sincere, showing the sad feelings in the heart and making people sad.

Two years later, King Cuomo died. Before he died, he left his last words, asking Xijun to marry his grandson according to the custom of Wusun. Cenweijun, who was the same age as Xijun and succeeded to the throne, must be defeated. This decision is not in line with the traditional etiquette of the Han family, but also deviates from the moral ethics that Xijun received since he was a child. Therefore, Xijun refused to accept it and wrote to the Han family, asking Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to be his own master. Although Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty sympathized with Xi Jun's experience, for him, political needs always came first. He wrote back to Xijun, asking her to think about the national plan and act according to Wusun's custom. Xijun was helpless, so he had to put the overall situation first, obey with tears and become the wife of Kunmo's grandson.

Soon, Xijun gave birth to a daughter, a young woman, for the new king. However, due to years of melancholy and excessive sadness, coupled with physical weakness shortly after delivery, it was convenient to leave her infant daughter and died early in 87 BC. For the sake of national interests and national unity, she made great contributions, sacrificed her good years and ended her short and miserable life.

In the early years of the Republic of China, the famous master of Chinese studies, Liu Passionately wrote Princess Wusun, which expressed the deep memory of her hometown people.

Poetry cloud:

Hu Zheng resents the golden emblem, and the dust hub is fragrant.

In the mirror, Qingluan knows parting, and in the song, Huanggu flies away?

The wolf looks at the snow accumulation in spring flowers, while the dragon piles up the autumn grass and the sun shines.

At this point, we should lose Zhong Qing's bones, and the fragrant soul will return to the ring.

In addition, the outstanding Buddhist leader and calligrapher Zhao Puchu also left "Sai Qiu Hong" shouting:

The marriage of Wu Sun, the daughter of the emperor, bears the word "Golden Cup of Prince". To be friendly to the pro-nation, to make love, and to spread culture. The important task is to support the family and cross the snow mountain glacier. On Xiao Fang's meritorious service?

In 2005, Jiangsu Province built the Liu Xijun Memorial Hall in Yili, Xinjiang, and named it "Princess Memorial Hall of the Han Dynasty", which was officially opened in June of that year. On June+10, 5438, experts verified that Wusun ancient tomb group at the mouth of Xiate Grand Canyon was the tomb site of Princess Xijun of Han family, and erected a monument to commemorate it.
