Liu Penzi (; born 10 AD)〔 (【引用サイトリンク】title=Sinan Period ) 〕 was a puppet emperor placed on the Han dynasty throne temporarily by the Red Eyebrows (Chimei) rebels after the collapse of the Xin dynasty, from 25 to 27 AD. Liu Penzi and his two brothers were forced into the Red Eyebrows to be child soldiers. When the Red Eyebrows submitted the new Emperor Gengshi of Han, his older brother Liu Gong fled to support the new emperor. Later, Red Eyebrows rose again into rebellion, and chose Liu Penzi as new emperor. When they took Chang'an, Liu Penzi was officially Emperor of China, but never had actual powers. When Liu Xiu definitively defeated the Red Eyebrows, he spared the 17 years old puppet emperor.〔 〕 == Family background == Liu Penzi was a descendant of the Western Han prince Liu Zhang, Prince Jing of Chengyang, from whose principality many Chimei men came. The people of the principality had long worshipped Prince Zhang as a god. Penzi's grandfather Liu Xian (劉憲) was created the Marquess of Shi by Emperor Yuan, and Penzi's father Liu Meng (劉萌) inherited the march after Marquess Xian's death. When Wang Mang usurped the Han throne and established the Xin Dynasty in 8, the march was abolished.〔 Penzi was the youngest of three brothers. His older brothers were Liu Gong (劉恭) and Liu Mao (劉茂). As Chimei forces rose late during the Xin Dynasty, the Liu brothers were forced into the Chimei to be child soldiers. Later, when the Chimei general Fan Chong (樊崇) temporarily submitted to Emperor Gengshi's authority after Emperor Gengshi overthrew Wang Mang, Liu Gong accompanied Fan to the then-capital Luoyang, and was created the Marquess of Shi to inherit his father's title. He did not accompany Fan when Fan later fled from Luoyang back to the Chimei stronghold of Puyang (濮陽, in modern Puyang, Henan), but remained a follower of Emperor Gengshi. Mao and Penzi remained in the Chimei forces and were made cattlemen. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Liu Penzi」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
