The head belongs to one of the most controversial figures in Chinese history, Wang Mang. Wang Mang, a reformer who once held the power of the Han Dynasty, why his head was valued by successive emperors?
Wang Mang was born in the noble Wang family, which was one of the most prominent relatives in the Western Han Dynasty. However, he is very different from other members of the family vying for power. Wang Mang is cautious and low-key, diligent and studious, staying away from the struggles within the family and focusing on the affairs in his own hands.
After entering the central government position, Wang Mang showed a cautious and serious work attitude, won the appreciation of his uncle Wang Shang, and obtained a part of the fief. He did not bully others, but won the favor of many people in the court. Unlike the extravagant life and scheming of other members of the family, Wang Mang is known for being low-key, hardworking, and philanthropic.
When Wang Mang was 24 years old, he began to hold an official position in the center and began his career. With a cautious and conscientious work attitude, he gradually gained significant power over the Han Dynasty. In the end, he usurped the throne in December of the first year of the New Deal and changed the name of the country to "Xin" at the age of 54.
Although he introduced a series of reforms in the early years of his administration, he eventually had to abandon them due to the pressure caused by the New Deal. Dissatisfaction with the new policy led to uprisings against Wang Mang, and eventually the new dynasty collapsed.
However, Wang Mang's head was regarded as a treasure in the hands of successive emperors, why is it so eye-catching?
Wang Mang had both achievements and demerits in his life, and put forward new trends of thought in politics, economics, and culture, and put them into practice. He strengthened the centralization of power and consolidated his rule through measures such as reforming the ** institution and redividing the counties and counties.
However, due to the dissatisfaction caused by the new policy at the time, and the fact that rebellion has always been taboo, successive emperors used Wang Mang as a negative teaching material to warn future generations of officials and nobles not to follow in his footsteps.
According to wild history and rumors, Wang Mang's head has a cold appearance and a very prominent appearance. It is believed that this face can ward off evil spirits and keep ghosts away.

At the same time, Wang Mang was considered to be vicious, and even his own son did not hesitate to kill. This makes his head not only have a scaring effect in appearance, but also outperform ghosts psychologically, becoming a weapon for fighting poison with poison.
In ancient China, once the rules set by the emperor were established, the younger generations often did not dare to change them easily. Traditional ideas were crucial to the emperor at the time, and Confucianism as the mainstream thought had a profound influence. The emperors of previous dynasties did not easily change the rules, so as not to put "dirty things" on their bodies and threaten their lives. As a result, Wang Mang's head became a symbol of the preservation of tradition, and successive emperors treasured it.
For Wang Mang, the historical evaluation is mixed. Some believe that he was the first visionary social reformer in Chinese history, and was even praised as the socialist emperor. The series of reforms he proposed, although unsuccessful at the time, showed merit in some respects.
However, some scholars believe that Wang Mang is a political opportunist, using reformism and retroism as a cover for political speculation. His reforms were seen as a means of manoeuvre, rather than real reform.
