Liu Ying was only sixteen years old when he succeeded to the throne, which was very young, and the imperial power was actually in the hands of Empress Lu. As soon as Empress Lu was in power, she sent all the women that Liu Bang had loved before his death to live in Yongxiang. Yongxiang is the place where the concubines and palace maids who make mistakes are imprisoned in the palace, similar to the cold palace of later generations. Empress Lu hated Mrs. Qi and Liu Ruyi's mother and son the most, she took special care of Yongxiang Ling, shaved Mrs. Qi's hair, and let Mrs. Qi wear prison clothes and shackles to do the rough work of rice all day long. used to be the most favored concubine in the palace, so that she was not even as good as an ordinary palace maid.

The brain is a good thing, but it's a pity that Mrs. Qi doesn't have it.

Anyone who has a little brain, either suicide is no longer insulted, or he is left to survive and delay the coming of death. Mrs. Qi No, in the days of bitterness, she sang an original song of her own while licking rice: "The son is the king, and the mother is the captive." All day long, twilight, often with death, three thousand miles apart, who should tell you? "This is as childish as a teenage girl. She was also worried that Liu Ruyi, the son of the princes and kings, could come to her rescue. As everyone knows, Liu Ruyi is just a prince and a king, and he is a scum in front of the supreme imperial power, not to mention that Liu Ruyi is only in his early tens, he is still a child, and he is still difficult to protect, how can he have the ability to rescue you!

Someone made a small report to Empress Lu, and Empress Lu was furious when she learned that Mrs. Qi was not at ease with the labor reform and dared to sing reactionary songs. Empress Lu was ready to kill Liu Ruyi, the king of Zhao, and completely shatter Mrs. Qi's hopes. Liu Ruyi will be killed sooner or later in the hands of Empress Lu, but it is his mother's singing that sounded the death knell for him in advance.

Empress Lü ordered to summon Liu Ruyi, the king of Zhao, to Beijing. Liu Ruyi is young and relies on Zhao Guoxiang Zhou Chang for everything. Zhou Chang was entrusted by Liu Bang, he did not dare to let Liu Ruyi come to Chang'an, and wrote that Liu Ruyi was sick and it was inconvenient to come to see the Queen Mother. Empress Lu was recruited three times, but all three times were blocked by Zhou Chang. Lu Hou was mad, and she came up with a poisonous plan: draw salary from the bottom of the kettle.

Empress Lü first ordered the dismissal of Zhou Chang and Zhao from his post as prime minister, and summoned Zhou Chang to Beijing. Zhou Chang had to go back to the capital, and Empress Lu summoned him and scolded: "Don't you know how much I hate Mrs. Qi's mother and son!" Why stop me! ”

Zhou Chang looked at the somewhat hysterical woman on the throne, his mood was complicated, he didn't say a word, bowed twice, and turned to leave.

Empress Lu recruited Liu Ruyi into Beijing for the fourth time. Without Zhou Chang's protection, Liu Ruyi obediently came to the capital. Emperor Liu Ying knew that his mother was not well-intentioned. He personally went out of the city to Bashang to greet his younger brother, and took Liu Ruyi to his dormitory, where he ate and lived with him. Liu Ying did her best to protect her younger brother. Empress Lu was so angry that she gritted her teeth and couldn't find a chance to start. Don't worry, people are in Chang'an, can you still fly? There is always a gap.

One day, Liu Ying got up early in the morning to go hunting. The young man has a good physique and loves sports. Liu Ruyi was young and snooze, so he didn't get up and followed. Empress Lu finally seized the opportunity. She sent someone to send poisoned wine and forcibly poured it on Liu Ruyi, killing him. Poor Liu Ruyi is only twelve years old. When Liu Ying came back from hunting, he only saw the bloody and cold corpse of his younger brother.

When Empress Lu killed Liu Ruyi, he ordered to tell Mrs. Qi the bad news, first mentally destroy her rival, and then ordered Mrs. Qi's hands and feet to be cut off, stripped of her clothes, gouged out her eyes, smoked her deaf ears, cut off her nose, poured dumb medicine, and threw Mrs. Qi into the toilet. Empress Lu also gave her work a name: Renbi. 彘 is a pig, which means human pig. Such cruel and vicious methods are unprecedented in the past, and it is estimated that there will be no one in the future! Liu Ying is angry and saddened by his brother's death, and his good mother is brewing to give him an even bigger scare.

Empress Lu was probably dissatisfied with her son's kindness and kindness, nor was she satisfied with her son's daring to disobey her own wishes. He ordered the palace people to lead Liu Ying to the toilet and visit the people. Liu Ying saw a blood-stained monster wriggling in the dung pit, and asked in surprise, "What is this?" ”

The left and right answers were Mrs. Qi.

Liu Ying fainted on the spot and was carried back to the dormitory. When he woke up, he cried profusely. Liu Ying experienced two strong stimuli in a short period of time and fell seriously ill. After he recovered from his illness, he sent someone to reproach Empress Lu, "This is not something that people can do." I am the son of the Queen Mother, and I can't govern the world! ”

Since then, Liu Ying has given up on herself, drunk and anesthetized herself every day, and finally fell to the root of her illness. When Zhou Chang learned that Liu Ruyi had been killed, he felt that he had failed Liu Bang's entrustment, and felt guilty, so he no longer saw Empress Lu, and died of depression three years later.
