Wang, Wang Mang of the new dynasty, became emperor after Yuan Dynasty. When he became emperor, all brothers were appointed as officials in Yuan Dynasty, but only Wang Man died young. Wang Mang is the son of Wang Man and the nephew of the Yuan Dynasty. Because his cousin is the son of general Hou, he "uses time to swim with horses"; And he died young because of his father, "lonely and poor, because of frugality." When I was young, I was educated by Confucianism, diligent and knowledgeable. It's very thoughtful to serve mothers and widows and raise orphans. It is polite to make friends with handsome people and serve your parents. During the period of Yangshuo (24 ~ 2 BC1), Wang Feng fell ill and Wang Mang waited on him respectfully. When Wang Feng died, he recommended Wang Mang as assistant minister of Huangmen, and Wang Mang embarked on his official career.
A few years later, Wang Mang was praised by some celebrities, and in the first year of Yongshi (BC 16), Wang Mang was proclaimed emperor and made the new capital Hou. Before and after this, Wang Mang was promoted to riding captain, doctor Guanglu and assistant. At this time, he is "cautious" and "the more modest." He often makes friends with celebrities and officials by "exciting guests" with horses, chariots and costumes. Therefore, the secretary recommended that the tourists say that "the reputation is outside, and the parents are dumped."
In the first year (8 BC), Wang Mang was promoted to Fu at the age of 38. At this time, Wang Mang "wanted to surpass his predecessors in reputation, so he was tireless in self-denial." He hired some moral people as historians and distributed the rewards to his subordinates. He is very frugal, and his wife "does not mop the floor and covers her knees", just like a servant. Wang Mang was Fu for one year, and when he died, Emperor Ai ascended the throne (7 BC). In the New Han Dynasty, 30 consorts of Zhongquan were appointed by Ding and Fu, but Wang Mang abdicated and took refuge in Xindu (now Xinye, Henan Province), where he was in charge.
Aidi died in the second year of Yuanshou (4 BC). At the age of nine, Emperor Han Ping acceded to the throne and proclaimed himself emperor after Yuan Dynasty, with follwed as the fu. Wang Mang died as Fu in the second year of Yuanshou and took power for 24 years.
Anhan palace
In the six or seven years before Wang Mang assisted the government (65438 BC +0- AD 6), except for two consorts, Ding and Fu, "anyone who mourned the emperor's consorts and was in the position of a minister committed folly." At the same time, Kong Guang, a famous Confucian, and her husband Han Zhen were also wooed. He was afraid that his uncle Wang Houli would gossip in front of Queen Yuan, so he asked Kong Guang to play Wang Li's "Old Evil" and sent Wang Li back. Because Wang Mang is quite intimidating, "those who follow it will rise, and those who go against it will perish". In the first month of Yuan Dynasty, Emperor Han Ping retranslated and presented White Pheasant I and Black Pheasant II, and sent an imperial edict to three courtiers to commend the ancestral temple. The ministers then declared that "the merits and demerits of Mang made Zhou Ming shake the pheasant for thousands of years" and demanded that Wang Mang be made public. So he worshipped Wang Mang as a teacher, posthumous title An Hangong.

In AD 2, Emperor Han Ping was thirteen years old, and Wang Mang successfully pushed his daughter to the position of queen.
And Zhang Qi, a scholar, wrote a letter praising Wang Mang's merits as Duke of Zhou, and suggested "restoring the principality, making it like Duke of Zhou, making it like a bird". It's time for Lu Kuan to discuss this matter. At first, Wang Mang crossed the Yuan Dynasty and drove his mother Wei Ji and his uncles Wei Bao and Wei Xuan out of the capital. His son Wang Yu was afraid that Pingdi would resent him when he grew up, so he communicated with Wei Bao and taught him to try to return to Beijing. Wang Mang disagreed. Wang Yu privately consulted with his wife and brother Lu Kuan, trying to make the court owned by Zheng Weishi by superstitious means. However, Lu Kuan was arrested when he spilled blood on Wang Mang's family at night and committed suicide in prison. Wang Mang asked to kill his son Yu Wang, and Yu's wife didn't kill him until she was pregnant and in labor. As a result, Wang Mang destroyed Wei's prison, impoverished Lu Kuan's prison, even drew out heroes who criticized their own counties, and even implicated Princess, Wang, Hongyang and Hou Renping, forcing them to commit suicide. The death toll is hundreds. Wang Mang also wrote a book for this purpose, preaching that the crime of treating children is public forgetting private affairs to warn future generations; His minions also invited the book to be distributed throughout the country so that scholars could teach it and officials could understand its purpose.
After the Lu Kuan case, Wang Shun revisited Chen Chongzhi's suggestion. The minions incited "more than 8,000 people to write books" and demanded to follow Chen Chong's suggestion. So in April of the fourth year of Yuan Dynasty (AD 4), Wang Mang was worshipped as a butcher, and he became an official. Wang Mang also carved the seal of "Fu Sima, a teacher who carried Heng", which stood above the officials and was different from others.

At this time, Wang Mang attacked Tang Ming, Biyong and Lingtai, built 10,000 districts for scholars, made a market, and lived in Man Cang. The system was very prosperous. Set Jing Yue, there are five doctors and five classics. Recruit talents in the study of Confucian classics, as well as those who understand, care about, Shi Mao, Zhou Guan, Er Ya, astronomy, divination, clock rhythm, moon order, art of war and history. "The following tens of millions of strong people in Luo Tian have made it clear that the court will decide right and wrong, so it will be said separately."
Ministers invited Wang Mang to play. After the yuan dynasty, he promised to discuss the law of nine tin. In the fifth year of the Yuan Dynasty (A.D. 5), officials and people demanded a reward because Wang Mang was not given by Xinyetian. "Before and after the imperial edict, there were 487,572 people, and all the governors, princes, liehou and imperial clan saw him kowtow." Wang Mang wrote that he was humble and respected, and he was often afraid that he was incompetent. At present, "peace" in the world is the virtue of Yuan Zhen, and the merits of the same column are not his own, and he refuses to reward them. But he still received nine tins, and his power was very different from that of his ministers.
proclaim oneself emperor
Hou Liuqing of Leling wrote that now that the emperor is young, Wang Mang should be allowed to "do things like Duke Zhou". All the ministers said they should. At this time, Pingdi was ill, and Wang Mang made a plan. He is willing to take the lead, hiding the plan in a golden jar and putting it in the front hall. This is a story about cheating the Duke of Zhou into making a golden cup for the prince of Wu. Soon, Pingdi died young, and he wanted to choose an heir. Yuan Di was absolutely unique at this time, so he chose Zi Ying, the youngest of his great-grandchildren, who was only two years old, "believing that fortune-telling is the best".
At this time, it is said that Meng Tong, a martial arts master, dug a well and got a white stone. Under the circle above, there is a book by Dan with a stone written on it. Wen said, "Tell Han An to be the emperor." Gong Qing was reprimanded after beating Yuan, saying, "This slander is useless to the world and cannot be carried out!" Wang Shun mediated and explained to Hou Yuan that this matter could not be stopped, and Wang Mang did not dare to have other ideas. "But we should weigh our own strength and fill the ears of the world." After the Yuan Dynasty, he had no choice but to make a promise and ordered Wang Mang to "practice life, just like the story of the Duke of Zhou". So the princes invited Wang Mang to be regent, "all of them are like the emperor's system", and the next year they changed to "Jushe". Soon, Wang Mang named Zi Ying the Crown Prince and nicknamed him "obedient child".
In April of the first year of Jushe (AD 6), Hou Liu Chong of An Zhong encouraged the Liu clan to rise up against Wang Mang, and more than 100 followers attacked Wancheng, and they were not allowed to enter or lose. The world rebelled from then on. Liu Chong's father, Liu Jiayi, pleaded guilty and was pardoned, but praised Wang Mang's achievements, called Liu Chong a mess and affirmed Wang Mang's suppression of Liu Chong. Follwed was so happy that he named Liu Jia commander in chief. At this time, the ministers also said that Liu Chong rebelled because Wang Mang's power was light, and he wanted to improve Wang Mang's power to subdue the whole country. So Yuan ordered Wang Mang to call himself a "fake emperor" when he met her.
In September of the second year of Jushe (AD 7), after Wang Mang pacified Zhai Yi, he thought that Wade was getting stronger and stronger, and he had the help of heaven and man. In this year, Guangrao Hou Liujing and others ordered "taking the emperor immediately and truly", saying it was an act of god. So follwed said to Hou Yuan: When I reported to you, I called myself a "fake emperor"; Today, my date is over. If the world says anything to me, there is no need to say "photos". 1 1 month, I changed my residence to three years as the first year, in order to meet my fate. At this time, the officials and the people all knew that follwed had been instructed, and the minions began to seriously discuss and make suggestions. Wang Mang's "Truth" was put on the agenda. In 9 AD, he abolished obedient babies, became emperor on his own, and changed the name of his country to "Xin".
