But said that after the death of Emperor Hui of Han, Empress Lu was very aggrieved, and she really wanted to ask him a few questions:

First, are you sick because you see someone? You kid is too kind and too timid, I think the vixen wanted the old rascal to replace the prince, did she sympathize with you? I'm just letting you see what happened to her, if you don't thank me, forget it, and scold me for not being human!

Second, what's wrong with me looking for a trial of his cheating? Didn't your father find many lovers too? Why don't you scold him? Times are different, men and women are the same! You see how I killed Han Xin, how I killed Peng Yue, and how I forced Yingbu to rebel, you have to be ruthless. You are so cowardly, how can you be an emperor?

Third, I am a vicious person, will others be like me? Once I lose my rights, will they take me under the knife? Will you make me an adult too?

Because of thinking about these questions, Empress Lu didn't have time to cry after Emperor Hui's death, but just pulled her throat and howled.

Zhang Liang has a son named Zhang Piqiang, now fifteen years old, as a servant, obedient by nature, guessing the meaning of the Empress Lu, and not telling others, he came to see the left prime minister Chen Ping alone and said: "The queen mother has only one son on the master, and now the lord has died, the queen mother cries but does not mourn, do you know the reason?" Chen Ping was also surprised when he heard this, and he couldn't guess for a while, so he asked, "Why is this?" Zhang Biqiang said: "The lord has not grown up son, and now the young monarch is the heir, and the queen mother is afraid of chaos, so she has no intention of crying." The monarch and others are suspicious for no reason, why not quickly ask the queen mother to use Lu Tai and Lu Chan as generals to command the northern and southern armies, and to give Zhu Lu officials to use things in the middle, so that the queen mother can feel at ease, and you and others can also avoid disaster. Chen Ping thought to himself that this was a good statement. At this time, Dan Gu protected himself, and no matter what happened to him in the future, he listened to Empress Lu according to his words. When Empress Lu heard this, she was naturally happy.

One day, Empress Lu came to the dynasty and wanted to establish Zhu Lu as the king to explore the minister's intentions. First asked the right prime minister Wang Ling, Wang Ling said: "Emperor Gao once killed the white horse and swore an oath to the people: 'If the Liu family is not the king, the world will attack it.'" 'Now I want the king Lu to break this covenant. Empress Lu was displeased when she heard this, and asked Chen Ping, the prime minister of Zuo, and Zhou Bo, the chief lieutenant, and the two said to each other: "Emperor Gao set the world and made his sons kings. Lu Houjian said that he was overjoyed.

At this time, Wang Ling heard what the two said, and couldn't help but be furious. When the court withdrew with the ministers, Wang Ling reproached the two people: "On that day, the ministers and Emperor Gao were allied by blood, wouldn't the monarch be included?" Now that Emperor Gao has collapsed, the Queen Mother wants to be the king of the Lu family, and the monarch will obey his will and violate the previous covenant, what will be the face of Emperor Gao in the underground in the future? "A thousand people are not as good as a gentleman. Chen Ping saw that Wang Ling was angry, and he didn't distinguish with him, but said: "I am not as good as you, and the whole society is not as good as me." When Wang Ling heard this, he did not say anything more, and dispersed with each other.

About ten days later, the queen mother issued an edict, posthumously honoring his biological father Lu Gong as King Xuan, and his eldest brother Lu Ze as King Wu mourning. Chen Ping immediately wrote to ask Zhu Lu to be crowned king. Please seal it today, and kill it tomorrow, it is better to oppose it from the beginning, and give Zhu Lu's life in vain. Empress Dowager Lu has words to borrow, that is, she named Lu Tai as the king of Lu, and her sister Lu Xiao was also named the Marquis of Linguang, why not be named the queen?

Empress Dowager Lu was afraid that Liu Lu would not get along, so she came up with a plan to kiss and kiss

However, it is said that Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, has a total of eight sons, but none of them were born to the same wife: the eldest Liu Fei, the second Liu Ying, the third Liu Ruyi, the fourth Liu Heng, the fifth Liu Hui, the sixth Liu You, the seventh Liu Chang, and the eighth Liu Jian.

Liu You is the sixth son of Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, and his biological mother is unknown. In March of the eleventh year of Gaozu of the Han Dynasty (196 BC), Peng Yue, the king of Liang, was exterminated by Empress Lu on charges of rebellion. The prince Liu Hui was named the king of Liang, and the prince Liu You was named the king of Huaiyang. After Liu Ruyi left the Zhao Kingdom, Empress Lü moved Liu You to the king of Zhao and forced him to marry a girl from the Lü clan as queen. Liu You hates this queen who is sent to the door, and there is no love between husband and wife. Liu Youben has several Ai Ji, so he often makes fun at Ai Ji, and rarely goes to the Lu Palace. The Lu family was jealous, and relied on the power of Empress Lu to suppress King Zhao and prevent him from getting close to Zhu Ji. Liu You was unwilling to be suppressed by her, so he turned against the Lu family. Lu was furious and immediately packed up and returned to Chang'an.

According to common sense, when Lu Nu saw Lu Hou, she just cried that King Zhao favored his concubine and deceived his wife, and asked the Queen Mother to be the master and order King Zhao to bow to her, and it was just that she had to do so in the future. Who knew that Lu Nu was vicious but similar to Empress Lu, thinking that it was not enough to satisfy her, and she had to kill her husband to vent her hatred, so she concealed the truth and did not say anything, but pinched and said: "King Zhao hates the Lu family the most, and said loudly: 'How can the Lu family be the king, and after the queen mother is 100 years old, I will send troops to attack her according to the oath of the first emperor.'" 'I am afraid that the Lu clan will be harmed by King Zhao in the future, so I have come to report this matter. When Empress Lu heard this, she was furious, and immediately sent an envoy to summon King Zhao. Liu You thought to himself that Empress Lu, as the elder, must have wanted to reconcile the feelings between our father and wife, and now he just ordered me to come to Beijing to pick her up, and it must be no big deal to go, so he set off with the envoy.

In the first month of the spring of the seventh year, King Zhao arrived in Chang'an, and when Empress Lu heard that King Zhao was coming, he did not meet him, and sent troops to surround him in the palace, and did not give food and drink. Poor King Zhao was starving alive in his prison mansion, and he was indignant and had nowhere to tell, so he sang:

Zhu Lu uses things to do Liu Shiwei,

Coerced the prince and the prince to forcibly give me a concubine.

My concubine is jealous and accuses me of evil,

Slanderous women have been in trouble with the country.

Why did I abandon my country without loyal subjects?

Self-determination is wild and straight.

I would rather be a thief sooner rather than a thief if I don't regret it,

Whoever starves to death for the king has mercy!

The Lu clan is absolutely unreasonable to take revenge.

The song whined and hungered, and the result was starvation to death in the mansion. According to the folk funeral, Liu You was buried next to the graves of the people of Chang'an. Because he died of seclusion, he was given the nickname of King You.

After Liu You starved to death, Zhao Di was suspended, and Liu Hui, the king of Liang, was renamed King of Zhao, and Liang Di was handed over to Lü Chan, the nephew of the Empress Dowager Lü.

Liu Hui's title of King Liang was originally sealed by Han Gaozu when he was alive, but now he was renamed King Zhao by Empress Lu, and Liu Hui was very unhappy. First, he grew up in Liangdi and didn't want to leave his homeland; Second, the terrain of Zhao is remote, far less fertile than Liangdi; But the queen mother arranged, and if she was unhappy, she had to obey.

After Liu Hui arrived in Zhaodi, in order to completely control him in the palm of his hand, Empress Lü resorted to the trick of Liu Lu's marriage and ordered him to marry Lü's daughter as the queen. Liu Hui is the son of Gaozu, and Lü's daughter is the niece and granddaughter of the Empress Dowager Lü, so it stands to reason that Liu Hui is a generation higher than her. Empress Dowager Lu doesn't care about these, as long as Liu Lu marries, it doesn't matter if the senior generation is later or later! He used to ask Emperor Hui to marry the daughter of his sister Princess Lu Yuan! Empress Dowager Lu is just nonsense!

Empress Dowager Lu is doing nonsense, but Liu Hui doesn't want to do nonsense. Before that, he already had a concubine whom he loved, and the two were very affectionate. Queen Lu, like her aunt Empress Dowager Lu, has a ruthless personality and is vicious. She said, "You don't make love to me, and I don't let you make love to anyone else!" I'll kill whoever you make out with! If no one makes love to you, you can only come back to me! ”

Liu Hui was intimidated by obscenity and retreated, but there was always a certain limit to patience, so he often carried the queen behind his back to have trysts with his beloved concubine. Queen Lu did what she said and sent someone to poison Liu Hui's beloved concubine!

In the face of this blatant assassination, Liu Hui was extremely sad, but there was nothing he could do. In addition to anger, he was more desperate and afraid. She no longer dares to like any woman, because whoever she likes is equivalent to harming anyone! Liu Hui was depressed and depressed. He composed four elegiac songs for his dead concubine, which were recited by the musicians every day. Only four months after Aiji's death, Liu Hui committed suicide by relying on medicine due to excessive grief, Liu Hui is a lover.

When Empress Lu heard that Liu Hui committed suicide, she did not pity her, but said that the king of a country was martyred for a woman, and she did not want to flatter Zongmiao and lose her filial piety, so she did not set up her heir. He also sent an envoy to sue Liu Heng, the king of Zhao, intending to move him to the king of Zhao. The acting king said that he was willing to guard the border of Dai County, and did not dare to move the big country, and the envoy reciprocated. Empress Dowager Lu then established Lu Lu as the king of Zhao and stayed in the capital. Lu Lu's father was Lu Shizhi, who had passed away, and Lu Lu was also the nephew of the Empress Dowager Lu.

Liu Bang's eighth son, Liu Jian, the king of Yan, died of illness and left behind a son, and the Empress Dowager Lu did not want him to inherit the title, so she sent assassins to Yan to assassinate Liu Jian's son, and named Lu Tong, the son of Lü Tai, as the king of Yan. As a result, the Lü clan already had three kings: Lü Chanliang King, Lü Lu Zhao King, and Lü Tongyan King, which were equivalent to Liu's power. Moreover, Lu Chan and Lu Luyao led the feudal domain, still standing in the court, holding the power of soldiers and horses, and the Liu family has changed several times to become the world of the Lu family!

But said that Zhang Liang has always been sick, since Zuo Gaozu pacified the world, and was sealed to stay as a marquis, because he saw that Gaozu was suspicious, he wanted to be obscure, so he learned to guide and did not eat grains. After the collapse of Gaozu, Empress Lu felt that Zhang Liang offered a plan to protect Emperor Hui, so he forcibly persuaded Zhang Liang to return to eating, and said: "Life is like a white horse, why bother yourself." Zhang Liang had no choice but to eat as usual until he died.

Empress Lu was very sorry, and became the Marquis of Wencheng, so that his eldest son Zhang Budo attacked the Marquis of Jue, and the second son Zhang Pijiang was only fourteen years old, and Empress Lu used it as a servant. He also made Fan a marquis of Wu, and his son Fan was a knight.

Time was fast, and it had been four years since Empress Lu came to the dynasty, and the young emperor gradually grew to more than ten years old and learned that he was not born to Empress Zhang. I also heard that my biological mother had been killed by Empress Lu, and I naturally resented it in my heart. In the end, the child didn't know how to endure, so he said angrily: "Empress Dowager Lu is a bad woman, she not only poisoned my mother, but also killed many beauties!" I'm still young, I can't do anything, and when I grow up, I'll avenge them! "[The ambition is not small, but it's a pity that it is a little reckless]. This kind of words was listened to, and it was immediately reported to the Empress Dowager Lu. The Queen Mother was taken aback, thinking that he had such wild words at a young age, and he would be able to pay it back when he grew up in the future? It is better to get rid of him as soon as possible. [The young emperor is her grandson, and he can also do it, how poisonous it is! ] 】

Empress Lu's idea was established, and he secretly sent his confidants to close the young emperor in Yongxiang, and even the left and right servants were not allowed to meet him, and then issued an edict to abolish the young emperor and order the people who should be established at the meeting of the ministers.

The young emperor soon starved to death. Empress Lu motioned to the ministers to set up Liu Yi, the younger brother of the little emperor and the king of Changshan, who was also born to the beauty of the harem, as the emperor. After Liu Yili, the king of Changshan, became the emperor, he changed his name to Liu Hong, and the Empress Dowager Lu was still in the dynasty.

However, it was said that after Lu Tai died, Empress Lu wanted to establish Lu Chan and Lu Lu as kings. There is already a precedent for the younger brother and stepbrother, and the Empress Dowager Lu pretends to be fair, and she still has to go through the Council of Ministers before she can be sealed. The ministers had already received Chen Ping's signal, so they sponsored Lu Chan and Lu Lu. The Queen Mother was very pleased, and issued an edict to establish Lü Chan as the king of Lü and Lü Lu as the Marquis of Huling. There is also Liu Ze, the Marquis of Yingling, who was originally a cousin of Gaozu, and later married the daughter of Lu Xiao as his wife, I don't know if he was called Lu Hou's sister-in-law or aunt, and he was also named King Langyu.

Chen Ping's name is Prime Minister, but he is actually the spokesperson of Empress Lu! After Empress Lu died, he immediately helped Liu to destroy Lu and became a hero. In fact, his character is much worse than Wang Ling! Zhou Chang, who did not dare to follow the edict, was even more incompatible.

Since then, everyone in the Liu family has been afraid, and they have tried to protect themselves, but they are afraid of touching the anger of Empress Lu.
