Prosperity Under Wu?

[edit]

"His reign brought a much needed political stability that laid the groundwork for prosperity under his grandson Emperor Wu." This statements strikes me as incorrect. There wasn't prosperity under Wu; Wu waged 40 years of costly war against all of China's neighbors. Maybe change "prosperity" to "expansion" or "conquest?" 207.23.202.135 (talk) 19:23, 26 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The picture is wrong

[edit]

It's a painting of Emperor Guangwu of Han but not Emperor Wen. The writing at the right-top corner is "○○武皇帝劉秀", means "Liu Xiu, Emperor Guangwu of Han"(The character "Han"(漢) and "Guang"(光) are not shown).--61.18.170.86 13:27, 8 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Dai capital

[edit]

Gu states that it was at Jinyang or (on the authority of Sima Qian) "Zhongdu" but Google eats the part of the book with the footnotes on which and which era's "Zhongdu" is meant. — LlywelynII 03:59, 24 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Emperor Wen's political beliefs

[edit]

This article seems to be biased towards Jia Yi for some reason. Emperor Wen and his son were influenced by the Huang-Lao idealogy and governed according to its tenets. There doesn't seem to be any clue that Jia Yi's advice were taken very seriously by Emperor Wen, even if the latter had valued his talent. Jia Yi would have found his calling under Wen's grandson, Emperor Wu, who favored Confucianism and gave it the elevated position that it would hold ever since. 128.106.161.45 (talk) 11:08, 28 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
