谢万年 / Xie Wannian (Western Han)

Overview

谢万年 / Xie Wannian enters the wiki through Hanji 541 as the Jiangzuo Dajiang connected to 汉成帝’s Changling works. The episode uses him narrowly as a project-responsibility figure punished after the court reverses course on the Changling construction burden.

Current Profile

Hanji 541 presents Xie Wannian as part of the same punishment field as 陈汤. After Chengdi accepts arguments against continuing Changling palace-city works and rewards the proposal to stop them, Xie is blamed for having overseen works that harmed the people and is ordered to be moved to Dunhuang with Chen Tang.

His current profile is therefore administrative rather than biographical. The source does not give his broader career or inner motive; it records that when a public-works project becomes politically toxic, the official attached to implementation can be recoded as disloyal or harmful even while other actors are rewarded for cancellation.

Key Characteristics

• Western Han project official tied to the Changling works.
• Identified in the source as Jiangzuo Dajiang.
• Punished after the same Changling policy field produces rewards for cancellation advocates.
• Moved toward Dunhuang with Chen Tang.
• Functions as a narrow example of implementation responsibility after a public-works reversal.

Evidence

• Project role: Hanji 541 says Xie Wannian was the Jiangzuo Dajiang connected to the works.
• Punishment: Hanji 541 says he was condemned after the Changling works were criticized.
• Frontier relocation: Hanji 541 says Xie Wannian and Chen Tang were to be moved to Dunhuang.

Qualifications

This page is bounded to Hanji 541. It does not reconstruct Xie Wannian’s complete office history, exact technical responsibility for Changling, legal charge wording, or later fate. Wang Hong’s identity in the same episode remains source-scoped rather than merged into an existing Wang Hong page.

What Changed

• Created the page from Hanji 541 as the Changling works responsibility figure punished alongside Chen Tang.

Relationships

• 陈汤 - fellow punished figure in the Changling reversal.
• 汉成帝 - ruler whose court condemns the Changling works.
• 公开理由与私下动机错位 - adjacent concept because Xie is punished in the same event where other actors are rewarded for reasons beyond the public explanation.
• 西汉 - dynastic setting.
