Another fifty or sixty years passed.

All the concubines in Su Mingzhe's harem gradually died of illness, leaving only one concubine Li by his side.

During this period, the former prince Liu Xu died after more than thirty years of reign. His posthumous title was "Emperor Xiaowen" and his temple name was "Taizong".

The current emperor is Liu Ke, the eldest son of Liu Xu, who has been in power for twenty years.

Liu Ke lived in a honeypot, and his position as prince was stable. After he ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, he drafted a large number of women and filled the harem.

He had fun and left all state affairs to the ministers of the three provinces and six ministries.

Fortunately, most of today's ministers in the DPRK know that Emperor Gaozu is still alive and have no other thoughts.

However, as Liu Ke became more and more foolish and absurd, ministers began to rush to Luoyang to complain to Su Mingzhe.

Su Mingzhe originally didn't want to take care of this matter, but he couldn't bear to be bothered by the old ministers coming over one after another.

On this day, Su Mingzhe took Concubine Li back to Xianyang and asked Liu Ke to give the throne to Prince Liu Zhi.

Liu Ke did not dare to refuse and chose to take the Zen position at the end of the year.

After Liu Zhi succeeded to the throne, he immediately began to make troubles.

In the spring of the next year, he ordered 600,000 border troops to take the initiative to attack the Huns, who were already a border trouble.

The Huns at this moment are far less arrogant than they were in history. They were suppressed and beaten by three emperors: Su Mingzhe, Liu Xu, and Liu Ke.

It's just that the grassland tribes are like leeks. If you don't keep rooting, you can't get rid of them all.

Basically every ten years or so, the Huns would invade south.

Liu Zhi was an ambitious emperor, determined to conquer all dissenters.

Six hundred thousand troops were dispatched successively to attack from three directions: northeast, north, and northwest, sweeping across the entire Mobei.

This battle directly knocked the Huns out of their temper.

Some of the Huns asked to surrender, and some moved westward.

At the same time, more than a dozen large grassland tribes such as Donghu, Xiqiang, and Dawan were also impressed by the powerful strength of the Han and asked to surrender one after another.

Liu Zhi followed the trend and established thirty-six counties outside the Great Wall to manage these naturalized tribes.
