The youngest emperor in history
He stepped down because he was dead. After 220 days in office, Emperor Liu Long died. The youngest emperor in ancient times was Liu Long, the emperor of the Han Dynasty. He is the youngest son of Emperor Liu Zhao of the Han Dynasty and the fifth emperor of the Eastern Han Dynasty. Why is he the youngest emperor? Because he inherited the unification for only one hundred days, he is the youngest emperor in the whole history of China. Not only that, but his life span is also the shortest, because he died at the age of one.

Many sons died while his father, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, was alive, so he thought that eunuchs and maids in the palace were murdering his sons, so he decided not to keep his son in the palace, but to raise the rest of his sons among the people. Originally, after the death of Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty, Liu Long should not succeed to the throne because he was a younger son.

The eldest son of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty should have succeeded to the throne, but this Liu Shengsheng suffered from a strange disease and has never been cured. So Deng, the queen of Han and Emperor, thought that he was not fit to be an emperor. On the other hand, in order to control the affairs of the state, she created this baby which was just born for 65,438,000 days, because it was only a baby at that time, and all the government affairs were handled by the then Queen Deng and ministers.

Unfortunately, the baby who succeeded to the throne died after only 220 days in office, only one year old, so he was called "August Emperor" or "Hundred Days Emperor" by later generations. When Queen Deng was in power, she also did a lot of good things. Empress Deng believes that the country should not be ruled by criminal law, but by enlightenment. However, Queen Deng was a consort herself, so during her reign, the power of the Deng family expanded rapidly.
