Liu Xiu was the first emperor of the Eastern Han Dynasty, known as Emperor Guangwu in history. Liu Xiu, Emperor Guangwu of Han Dynasty, was highly praised in history, saying that he inherited the destiny, brought order out of chaos, stabilized the world and devoted himself to national rejuvenation, and was the "Lord of Zhongxing". Wang Fuzhi, a great thinker in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties, evaluated Guangwudi as "the rule under three generations", and thought that "after three generations, the talents in the world were taken", and even thought that after three generations of Xia, Shang and Zhou Dynasties, "the talents were the crown of a hundred kings".
Why did Guangwudi Liu Xiu win the hearts of the people, and why did Guangwudi win the hearts of the people, creating the Eastern Han Dynasty era of Guangwudi's revival?
First of all, Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu is good at winning people's support. According to historical records, during Liu Xiu's administration, he paid attention to national construction and people's sufferings. He issued nine orders to release handmaiden, forbidding the killing of handmaiden, and also issued several imperial edicts to pardon sinners as Shu Ren. He reduced taxes and corvees, distributed relief supplies and built water conservancy projects. Cut more than 400 counties and streamline officials. After the unification of the whole world, Liu Xiu basically stopped fighting, mainly to appease the ethnic minorities in the border areas and turn enemies into friends. These measures are very popular.
Secondly, the tolerance of Guangwu Emperor Liu Xiu is the key to win the hearts of the people. With tolerance, I let go of my "rebellion" heart. In AD 24, Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu attacked Handan, wiped out Wang Lang and seized a large number of confidential documents. Unexpectedly, he found thousands of letters that states and counties colluded with Wang Lang to slander Liu Xiu, and even dozens of loyal letters that subordinates secretly wrote to Wang Chang. However, Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu did not investigate the traitor, but immediately burned all the letters and reduced them to ashes. Wu Han said regretfully, "If you leave these letters, you can find out the hidden mole." Liu Xiu replied disdainfully: "If you burn loyalty, the other side will be safe. He is no longer a spy. " This settled people's hearts and convinced people allied with Wang Lang that Guangwu Emperor Liu Xiu was completely convinced.

Secondly, tolerance conquered the hearts of "Yimin", "Hermit" and unruly characters. There is a man named Zhou Dang in Guangwu County, Taiyuan, who is very famous in the local area. The court asked him to be an official several times, but he refused. Later, as a last resort, on Monday, pedestrians wore short coats and wrapped their heads in bark to meet court officials, but Emperor Guangwu personally summoned them.
When Zhou saw him, he not only didn't say his name, but also directly said that he just didn't want to be an official and didn't force him. Later, Dr. Fan Sheng wrote that the Zhou Party was arrogant and rude in front of the emperor and should be punished for "great disrespect". Liu Xiu said: "Since ancient times, some people have been reluctant to be ministers for others. Boyi and Shu Qi don't eat Zhou Su. On Monday, one party refused to accept my salary, which was their own will. They gave him 40 silks. "
After the bronze horse was broken, Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu paid tribute to the generals who got off the bronze horse and made them princes. These people are suspicious. Therefore, Liu Xiu asked them to return to their original departments and lead their own troops. Liu Xiu personally inspected the ministries by car. These generals all said with emotion, "It's no use pushing Xiao Wang's heart into his stomach!"
In addition, Liu Xiu is also good at winning the hearts of courtiers and creating "harmony between monarch and minister". On one occasion, Emperor Guangwu gave a banquet in honor of a hero. He asked, "What would you have achieved if the situation hadn't changed much?" First of all, Deng Yu said, "I studied it when I was young, and maybe I can become a doctor of county literature." Liu Xiu thought Deng Yu was too modest and said, "You are a son.
Hearing this, Emperor Guangwu smiled and said to Ma Wu, "As long as you don't become a thief and don't get caught, it's very good to be a village director." Everyone laughed. It can be seen that the intimate relationship between Liu Xiu and these heroes is so happy that Wang Fuzhi, a beginner in the Qing Dynasty, praised that "under three generations, the monarch and the minister are all beautiful, and the Eastern Han Dynasty is the only one". It is said that Liu Xiu, Emperor Guangwu of Han Dynasty, is good at winning people's hearts. In fact, Emperor Guangwu is concerned about the sufferings of the people. Win the hearts of courtiers, but be good at choosing, using and loving talents. In China's history of more than 2,000 years, this is very valuable, and it can set an example of governing the country by itself. Based on the superficial understanding of school easy search, the Lord of Zhongxing in the Eastern Han Dynasty was probably only Guangwu Emperor Liu Xiu.
