刘恒 / Emperor Wen of Han

刘恒 / Emperor Wen of Han enters the wiki through 《资治通鉴·秦纪》117-1|啪啪打脸!历史上“爽文”的开山鼻祖 as the later fulfillment of 许负’s prediction about 薄姬. The episode says Wei Bao hears that Bao Ji will bear a future royal or imperial son, but the child who matters is Liu Heng, son of 刘邦, not a Wei heir.

The source places Liu Heng’s accession in 180 BCE and uses it to explain why Xu Fu’s physiognomy becomes memorable. In this wiki branch he is not yet a full Western Han ruler biography; he is the historical payoff that turns 魏豹’s self-interested interpretation into an ironic misreading.

Qinji 135 番外篇2 adds Liu Heng’s own patron role. After becoming Emperor Wen, he honors Xu Fu and asks her to read 邓通, a favorite linked in the episode to an imperial dream. Liu Heng then tries to prevent Deng Tong’s predicted poverty by granting copper-mountain and minting wealth, but the source later fulfills the warning after 汉景帝 / Emperor Jing of Han succeeds him.

Hanji 150 part 3 adds Liu Heng as the post-吕雉 succession endpoint in 陈平’s political-survival story. After Lu Zhi dies, Chen Ping, 周勃, and Liu-family forces remove Lu-family power and install the king of Dai as emperor, making Liu Heng the ruler under whom Chen Ping’s three-court survival reaches its official peak.

Hanji 150 part 4 keeps Liu Heng in that endpoint role and adds reception of Chen Ping’s later usefulness. The episode says Chen Ping assists Emperor Wen after the anti-Lu transition, making Liu Heng the ruler whose reign confirms the practical payoff of Chen Ping’s earlier low profile and factional timing.
