许训 / Xu Xun (late Han)

Overview

Xu Xun is a late-Han high official in Hanji 891’s 169 CE Three Excellencies turnover, with the source placing his name in both a removal and a later appointment notice.

Current Profile

Current evidence is narrow and transcript-bound. Hanji 891 says a sikong named Xu Xun is removed in May 169, then says the court promotes a Runan man and taichang named Xu Xun to situ in June. The page keeps that as a source-scoped office sequence rather than resolving whether the transcript has compressed or repeated a name.

Key Characteristics

• High official named in the 169 CE office-churn sequence.
• Connected in the source to both sikong removal and situ appointment language.
• Presented as an office-turnover marker rather than as a developed factional actor.
• Requires later source checking before the wiki can settle the exact appointment identity.

Evidence

• Removal notice: Hanji 891 says sikong Xu Xun is removed in May 169.
• Appointment notice: Hanji 891 says taichang Xu Xun of Runan is promoted to situ in June.
• Churn context: Hanji 891 places Xu Xun beside Wenren Xi, Liu Chong, and Liu Xiao in the Three Excellencies reshuffle.

Qualifications

The source may reflect a transcript normalization issue around Xu Xun’s office path. This page records the episode’s wording and should be revised only after a later source disambiguates the exact officeholder.

What Changed

• Created the page from Hanji 891’s May-June 169 office notices.

Relationships

• 闻人袭 - fellow high official in the same removal sequence.
• 刘宠 - official appointed taiwei in the same June 169 sequence.
• 刘嚣 - sikong appointee in the same sequence.
• 汉灵帝 - ruler whose court carries out the reshuffle.
• 朝廷开府任官失序 - broader office-churn frame.
