Politics
Lenient administration and lenient punishment
It is known in history that Liu Zhizhong is generous, benevolent and loyalKinshipMoreover, its decrees and punishments are indeed relatively lenient.For example, according to the Eastern Han Dynasty system, official corruption should imprison three generations, that is, three generations are not allowed to be officials.
Liu Xuan abolished this system.Liu Xuan's rewards to officials and nobles often exceed the prescribed limit, resulting innational financeAnd put these burdens on the people.It can be seen that Liu Gui's leniency is not entirely based on principles.
Develop trial officer system
In the first year of the founding (76 years), Liu Xuan formulatedTrial systemIt is stipulated that those who are recommended by filial piety and incorruptibility will first try to hold official positions, and those who are qualified will be formally appointed, while those who are unqualified will be eliminated.For those who are excellent in filial piety and fraternity and are not suitable for trial work, the emperor will decide whether to appoint them or not.[48][49]
Prohibition of torture
During the reign of Liu Xuan, he implemented a policy of leniency, except for the prohibition that relatives would be involved if one person committed serious crimes such as treason.
Order the offender to commute his sentence and move toBorder areas。The prohibition of torture was discussed in the book of chancery, with the exception of more than 50 articles on cruel punishment.

In the first year of Yuanhe (84 years), the price of grain was expensive, and the county officials were short of funds, which worried the court.Zhang Lin, the minister, said: "The reason why grain prices are expensive is because of the devaluation of the currency. We can stop issuing money and take cloth for rent to meet the needs of the whole world. Salt is a necessity of life, and even if it is expensive, people have to buy it. The government can sell it by itself. At the same time, we should charge interest on market trade in Yizhou and Yizhou, and implement the policy ofEqualizing levelingLaw. "Liu Xuan thought that these proposals were really convenient for the country, so he issued an imperial edict to implement them.[46-47]
In the first month of the second year of Yuanhe (1985), Liu Xuan issuedFetal maintenance order"Today, all pregnant women give birth to three people who raise grain and recover their husbands, not to be counted as one year old, so as to encourage people to have children.".[59]

Shule Dujun drew out his long sword and wept. He sighed to Tianchang, "The envoys of the Han Dynasty abandoned me, and our country will be destroyed by the Huns. Instead of dying the next day, it would be better to follow the envoys of the Han Dynasty and send their souls back!" Then he killed himself with his sword.
Although Ban Chao was reluctant to part with him, he had no choice but to turn eastward.Soon after arriving in Khotan, the people of Khotan blocked the road to meet Ban Chao. When they heard that he was going to return to the east, they cried bitterly. Nearby people lay on the ground holding the legs of Ban Chao's horse and refused to let him leave.Ban Chao had no choice but to stay. At the same time, he wrote to Liu Xuan and asked him to stay in the Western Regions.Liu Xuan agreed to Ban Chao's request.
