    彘儿 means little tiger, in modern times it means more of a pig, and in the Han Dynasty it means a tiger. The Book of Mountains and Seas was written earlier, and it was recorded in the Nanshan Sutra that "there are beasts in the Floating Jade Mountain, the shape is like a tiger and the tail of an ox, the sound is like a dog barking, and its name is called 彘, which is a cannibal." ”

    Yes, the milk name is Liu Yu.

    Before the age of seven, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty's milk name was Liu Yu, and when he was seven years old, Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty abolished the original prince and made Liu Yu the crown prince, so he changed his name to Liu Che.

    Liu Che, the seventh emperor of the Han Dynasty, was the great-grandson of Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, and the tenth son of Liu Qi, Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty. He was made crown prince at the age of seven, ascended the throne at the age of sixteen, and reigned for fifty-four years (141 BC and 87 BC).

    Yes, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che was once called Liu Yu, and later Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty renamed him Liu Che after he made him the crown prince.

    Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty's real name is not actually called "Liu Yu", his real name is "Liu Che". After all, he is the biological son of Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty, and his name Liu Yu is obviously a bit of a ** view, but his nickname is "Liu Yu", and Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty also called him "Biao'er".

    There is such a legend about why Liu Che, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, was called "Liu Yu". Legend has it that Emperor Han Jing dreamed one night that Han Gaozu said that he would have a prince in the near future, and asked Emperor Han Jing to name this prince who had not yet been born "Liu Yu", and in the next few days, Emperor Han Jing dreamed of Porco Rosso every day, and his beloved Mrs. Wang also dreamed of Porco Rosso every day. Soon after, Mrs. Wang really gave birth to a prince, and in order to follow the will of his ancestors, Emperor Jing of Han named Mrs. Wang's son "Liu Yu", which was later Emperor Wu of Han.

    Of course, this is just a legend, and the real reason is because the ancients were very superstitious. As a royal family, of course, it is no exception, the ancients believed that children born in rich families are generally not easy to support, in order to be able to support their offspring, rich families often give him a lowly name after the child is born, such as cats, dogs, pigs and so on。And they also think that the more humble the child's nickname, the better.

    The word "彘" is cheap enough, so Emperor Han Jing gave Liu Che the nickname "彘er"!

    Liu Che finally became the emperor, so naturally it is impossible to use such a lowly name as "Liu Yu", so he must use his real name "Liu Che". And as an emperor, Emperor Han Jing was able to personally give Liu Che a nickname, which is enough to see Emperor Han Jing's love for Liu Che!

    The implication is that it is easy to feed, and there are not many heirs of Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty, so I hope that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty can grow up strongly.

    The ancients believed that the name could survive better, and the heirs of Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty were thin at that time, so in order to allow Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to grow up smoothly, he took this cheap name.

    Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty is Liu Che, even if he is called Liu Yu, it may be his father's name, and it has nothing to do with him.

    Because the ancients believed that a cheap name was easy to support, the father of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty at that time gave him such a cheap name in order to let him grow up better.

    It should be a rumor. Because in ancient times, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che's "Che" character was pronounced the same as "彘". Therefore, there was a misunderstanding when future generations recorded history.

    Because the ancients believed that cheap names would not be concerned by Lord Yama to make a living, they gave such a nickname.

    I think this is because the ancients were superstitious, because the name crossed the line, then the child would be easier to support, so he was given such a name.

    Liu Yu is Liu Che.

    Emperor. Liu Che (July 14, 156 BC, March 29, 87 BC), the seventh emperor of the Western Han Dynasty, was an outstanding politician, strategist, and poet.

    Liu Che ascended the throne at the age of sixteen, and in order to consolidate the imperial power, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty set up the Chinese Dynasty, set up the history of assassination in the local area, and created the inspection system to select talents. At the suggestion of the Lord Father, he issued a decree of grace to settle the kingdom's power and take back the salt, iron and coinage. Culturally, Dong Zhongshu was adopted.

    The suggestion is to "depose a hundred schools of thought and respect Confucianism alone", ending the situation of "different teachers, different people, and a hundred different schools" since the pre-Qin period. During the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, he expanded the land and spread the prestige of the country, annexed Korea in the east, swallowed Baiyue in the south, conquered Dawan in the west, and broke the Xiongnu in the north, laying the scope of the Han land, and also opened up the Silk Road, established the era name, promulgated the Taichu calendar, and Xingtaixue also had a far-reaching impact.

    Liu Che has made achievements in various fields, but in the later part of his reign, he was reckless in military force, which caused the scourge of witchcraft.

    Leave a negative review for its overall positive image. In the fourth year of Zhenghe (89 BC), Liu Che issued an edict against himself. In the second year of the Later Yuan Dynasty (87 B.C.), Liu Che collapsed in Wuqi Palace at the age of 70 and was nicknamed Emperor Xiaowu.

    The temple number is Sejong and he is buried in Maoling.
