《王闳 - Wang Hong 》 | English translation: AI and Chinese Text Project users [?] | Library Resources |
| 1 | 王闳: | 王闳者，王莽叔父平阿侯谭子也。王莽篡位，潜忌闳，乃出为东郡太守。闳惧诛，常系药手内。莽败，汉兵起，闳独完全。 |
| Wang Hong was a son of Wang Mang's uncle Pinga Hou Tan. When Wang Mang usurped the throne, he secretly resented Hong and therefore exiled him as governor of Dongjun Prefecture. Hong feared execution, so he often kept medicine tied to his hands. After Wang Mang's downfall and the rise of Han forces, Hong alone remained intact. |
