After the demise of the Western Han Dynasty, Wang Mang established a new dynasty, and the Central Plains was filled with smoke. Until AD 25, Liu Bang's ninth grandson, Liu Xiu, swept all forces and established the Eastern Han Dynasty. Liu Xiu is one of the few emperors in the history of China. He is a country boy. He once said a famous saying: "An official who married Jin Wu deserves Yin Lihua. When she was a teenager, Liu Xiu often walked in the undulating rice fields in the Spring Ridge. He enjoyed this happy and quiet country life until one day, the appearance of a woman became a turning point in his fate. After Guan Zhong, who helped realize the hegemony of a generation, Yin's family was called "Doctor Yin" after later generations moved from Qi to Chu, so it was later called Yin's family. Yin family is very rich in Xinye, with more than 700 hectares of land. The scale of slaves in chariots and horses can be compared with that of governors at that time. The declining Liu Xiu knows that there is a big gap between herself and the famous family, but she still looks for opportunities to chat with Yin Lihua every day.

His brother thinks that Liu Xiu has no fame and family. How can Yin's daughter marry a farmer who has no home? Seeing that this mortal love is about to be cut off by the secular world, God seems to have pity and a political change, which has won Liu Xiu a chance to make a comeback. In the last years of Wang Mang, various forces competed for the rule of the Central Plains, and Liu's descendants also took the opportunity to rise up and try to restore the Han Dynasty. Liu Xiu's younger brother was among them, holding high the banner of "Liu Bang and nine grandchildren" and walking in the street to pull people to revolt. As a younger brother, Liu Xiu did not hesitate to put on his shirt, and Brother Yin Lihua also brought 1000 people to join. Subsequently, the Liu brothers took this patchwork army of 10,000 people and began the journey of "resisting the new Han Dynasty". On the battlefield, Liu Xiu gradually revealed her outstanding military and leadership skills, and gathered people from all walks of life to surrender. When she attacked Wancheng for the third time, their strength had reached 65,438+10,000.

When Liu Xiu only used 20,000 troops to fight hundreds of thousands of people, the situation can be imagined. At the gates of Kunyang, the two sides fought to the death, and the accumulated bodies were lying in the river of blood. Because of the disparity in strength, I think Liu Xiu's life is in danger. I didn't expect him to survive and turn the corner. This is also the famous battle of Kunyang in history. As recorded in "Learning from each other", "Xiu dares to die, and 3,000 people rush to the strong from the west of the city". After learning that his brother was killed, Liu Xiu was heartbroken and secretly vowed to avenge his brother. Then he did two incredible things. Yin Lihua's eldest brother also fulfilled the contract and got married as scheduled. Liu Xiu got her sweetheart as she wished. However, at this time, he can't enjoy the love of his children. He wants to create a piece of land and overlook it with her. A few months after the marriage, he was named General Lu and asked to conquer Hebei, but he did not send a single soldier, saying that Wang Mang was dead and there were many children named Liu in Hebei, so it was easy to conquer Hebei. Liu Xiu certainly understood that Liu Xuan wanted to get rid of it as soon as possible and realized that his life was worrying.

He assembled 20 thousand troops along the way, but in the face of 100 thousand soldiers guarding Hebei, it was still a drop in the bucket. Liu Yang, who is stationed in the city, gave him two choices: 1. Either you succeed or you die. 2. Liu Xiu's decisive refusal to marry his niece, Guo Shengkun, aroused the suspicion of the army soldiers. There was no temptation to capture the city, so that tens of thousands of soldiers knelt down and begged Liu Xiu to marry Guo Shengtong. He was pushed into a loveless city by soldiers and got 654.38 million+soldiers. In the following days, the giant deer were surrounded, Handan and bronze horses were destroyed, and the team reached one million. In AD 25, Liu Xuan was killed by mutinous soldiers in Chang 'an. Liu Xiu officially proclaimed himself emperor, moved the capital to Luoyang, and married his wife Yin Lihua. A year later, the candidate for the post of Zhonggong was also put on the agenda. Liu Xiu did her work on the grounds of Yin Lihua's "elegance and generosity, beauty of mother instrument". But Yin Lihua resolutely refused, saying that she was not qualified to be a queen. She knew that Guo Shengtong's uncle and the army led by him, except his niece, would never agree to be a queen. She chose to grieve herself for her husband's eternal career. Two nobles were knighted and named after Yin's brother Yin's hometown.
