But the real Liu Xie has one of the best endings among the conquerors in the history of China. Liu Xie has always been a puppet emperor, but Cao Cao never overthrew him. After forcing him to be the abdicated emperor, Cao Pi made him the Duke of Yang Shan, allowed him to offer sacrifices to Han Zhengshuo and Junze on his own fief, built a Han ancestral temple to offer sacrifices to the Han people, and even said, "You and I can enjoy the best things in the world."
Liu Xie died at the age of 54, and posthumous title mourned Xian Di. Of course, as a resigned king, Liu Xie must have experienced all kinds of turmoil and humiliation in his life. 189, Dong Zhuo deposed Liu Bian, a small emperor of the Han Dynasty, and helped Liu Xie to ascend to the throne, with the intention of controlling the world. Thinking of Li Jue, Liu Xie staged a coup in tears at first, and then fled Chang 'an with the support of Yang Feng and Dong Cheng. /kloc-in 0/96, Cao Cao, then the secretariat of Yanzhou, welcomed Liu Xie into Luoyang and began to stage the famous legend of "relying on the emperor to make princes" in history.
Legend has it that Liu Xie was unwilling to be Cao Wei's puppet. He once ordered Dong Cheng to find a way to kill Cao Cao, but the result was exposed and failed. The interpretation of this passage in the novel Romance of the Three Kingdoms is extremely wonderful, but later many researchers have always doubted the authenticity of this article. Because according to official records, the so-called band editing is entirely claimed by Dong Cheng himself, which is probably an excuse for him to attract military forces to compete with Cao Cao for power. Cao Cao gave his three daughters to Liu Xie as guests. After Cao Cao killed Queen Fu, he appointed his daughter Cao Jie as the new queen of Liu Xie. In 234, Liu Xie died of illness, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was buried in Changling with a ceremony. After Cao Jie's death in 260, he was also buried with Liu Xie according to Han etiquette.
