In 496 BC, He Lv, the king of Wu, sent troops to attack the State of Yue, and was defeated by the State of Yue. He Lv was seriously injured and died. He Lv asked Wu Zixu to choose his successor. Wu Zixu loved Fu Cha alone and chose him as king. Since then, Gou Jian heard that Wu wanted to build a water army, and despite the opposition of others, he sent troops to destroy the water army. The result was surrounded by Fucha Jones and was defeated. The general also died. Fu Cha wanted to capture Gou Jian alive, but Fan Li made a plan and pretended to surrender, leaving a green hill without firewood. Fu Cha didn't listen to the advice of veteran Wu Zixu, leaving Gou Jian and others behind. After three years of humiliation, he was finally put back to Yue. Gou Jian secretly trained elite soldiers, sleeping every night without a mattress, just laying some firewood (called salary in ancient times), and hanging a bravery in the house. In order not to forget the shame of the past, he will taste bitterness from time to time. In order to inspire the people, Gou Jian joined the work of the Queen and the people, and made the country stronger with the help of Vietnamese Qi Xin. On one occasion, Fu Cha led most of the troops in the country to hold a meeting and asked Gou Jian to lead troops to cheer. Seeing that the time had come, Gou Jian pretended to go to the meeting, took 3,000 chosen men, captured the main city of Wu, killed the king of Wu and captured Fu Cha. Fu Cha regretted not listening to Wu Zixu and left Gou Jian behind. Before he died, he just asked not to hurt the people of Wu.

In 74 BC, Emperor Liu Fuling died. He didn't have a son, so Huo Guang, the great-grandson of Emperor Wu, who was in power, became emperor. This is Xuan Di of the Han Dynasty.

In 68 BC, Huo Guang died of illness. According to the historical lessons and the arbitrary behavior of the Huo family, ancient scholars suggested taking measures to weaken the influence of the Huo family. Huo, who hates and fears, is ready to kill first, and then nullify it under the pretext of the order of the heavenly queen. When Xuan Di learned of this incident, he took pre-emptive measures and took action to kill Khodorkovsky.

From then on, Emperor Xuan Di personally handled state affairs, pulled himself together and made efforts to make the country prosperous and strong. He directly listened to the opinions of ministers and strictly examined and demanded officials at all levels; It also reduces the price of salt, advocates economy and encourages the development of agricultural production. Wei Xiang led officials to perform their duties, which was in line with Xuan Di's wishes. With the cooperation of Wei Xiang, Xuan Di, the Emperor of the Han Dynasty, took a series of effective measures to develop production, reduce the burden on the people, and finally make the country rich and strong. He reigned for 25 years and revived the declining Western Han Dynasty.
