Quotes by Rafe de Crespigny (?)

“When Emperor Shun died in 144, the government came into the hands of his widowed Empress Liang, now regent Dowager, and her brother Liang Ji. The emperor’s only son died in infancy a few months after his father’s death, and in such circumstances the Dowager had absolute right to choose any male of the imperial clan for the succession. The Dowager and her brother selected the seven-year-old Liu Zuan, but after he showed signs of resenting their control he became ill and died.”
