刘循 / Liu Xun (Yizhou heir)

Overview

刘循 / Liu Xun is 刘璋’s eldest son in the Hanji 1055 Yi Province branch. He is primarily important as a succession and marriage-link marker because 庞羲’s daughter is married to him, making Pang Xi look both useful and threatening inside Liu Zhang’s household politics.

Current Profile

Liu Xun does not act independently in the episode. His role is relational: as Liu Zhang’s eldest son and Pang Xi’s son-in-law, he helps explain why Pang Xi’s old service to the Liu family can become politically uncomfortable. The page is explicitly disambiguated from 刘勋, the Lujiang figure already present in the wiki.

Key Characteristics

• Serves as Liu Zhang’s eldest-son succession marker.
• Links Pang Xi’s household to Liu Zhang’s ruling family through marriage.
• Helps explain why Liu Zhang could fear Pang Xi’s influence despite Pang’s prior favor.
• Requires disambiguation from the separate late-Han figure 刘勋 / Liu Xun.

Evidence

• Succession and marriage tie: Hanji 1055 names Liu Xun as Liu Zhang’s eldest son and says Pang Xi’s daughter is married to him.
• Suspicion context: Hanji 1055 uses the tie as one of the reasons Pang Xi becomes a figure Liu Zhang might suspect.

Qualifications

This page records a relationship marker, not a full political biography. Hanji 1055 does not describe Liu Xun’s decisions, offices, military role, or later career.

What Changed

• Created a disambiguated page for Liu Zhang’s son 刘循.
• Marked the distinction from Lujiang 刘勋.

Relationships

• 刘璋 - father and provincial ruler whose succession field Liu Xun marks.
• 庞羲 - father-in-law whose household tie to Liu Xun increases political sensitivity.
• 益州 - provincial setting where the marriage link affects suspicion.
• 刘勋 - separate namesake page kept distinct from Liu Zhang’s son.
