Of course, Emperor Wen of Han was not thinking about the dispute between Chu and Han, but Emperor Wen of Han was thinking about some things about his mother Bo Ji.

Bo Ji (?-155 BC), a native of Wu County, Wu County (now Suzhou, Jiangsu), was the concubine of Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, and the biological mother of Liu Heng, the Emperor of the Han Dynasty. Liu Heng ascended the throne and respected Bo Ji as the queen mother, known as the Bo Empress Dowager in history.

Originally the wife of Xiang Yu's general Wei Bao, after Wei Bao was defeated by Han Xin, Bo Ji was summoned to the Han Palace, but after entering the palace for more than a year, he had not even seen Liu Bang's face. When Bo Ji was young, she befriended Mrs. Guan and Zhao Zi'er, and agreed: "Whoever among the three of us gets rich first, don't forget everyone!" Later, Mrs. Guan and Zhao Zi'er were favored by the King of Han successively. In 203 BC, when the two beauties were waiting for Liu Bang, they met and laughed at the first agreement with Bo Ji. Liu Bang asked the reason, and the two told each other the facts. Liu Bang felt sad and pitied Bo Ji, and summoned Bo Ji that night. After that, Bo Ji became pregnant. Liu Heng was born in the middle of 202 years ago. Liu Heng was named acting king when he was eight years old. After having a son, Liu Bang rarely met Bo Ji. After Liu Bang's death, because Bo Ji rarely saw Gaozu and her status was not high, she was allowed to leave the palace, from her son to the country, for the acting queen mother. The Empress Dowager's brother Bo Zhao can also follow. After the death of Empress Lu. After the ministers made a decision, they thought that the foreign Lu family was not good, and they all called the Bo family benevolent, so they welcomed Liu Heng, the king of the dynasty, as the emperor, respected the Bo family as the queen mother, and named Bo Zhao as the marquis. During this period, Empress Dowager Bo married a woman in her mother's family, Bo, to the crown prince Liu Qi as the crown princess. After the death of Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty, the crown prince Liu Qi ascended the throne as Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty, and his biological mother Empress Dou was the empress dowager and his grandmother Empress Dowager Bo was the empress dowager.

Bo Ji was a native of Wu County, and her father, Bo Shi, had an affair with Wei Yuan, the daughter of the former Wei clan, during the Qin Dynasty, and gave birth to Bo Ji, whose father died in Shanyin and was buried there. At the end of the Qin Dynasty, various places rose up against Qin, Wei Bao established himself as the king of Wei, and Wei Yuan sent his daughter Bo Ji to the palace of the king of Wei. Wei Yuan went to Xu Cheng to look at her appearance and calculate the fate of her daughter Bo Ji, and Xu Cheng said that Bo Ji would give birth to the Son of Heaven. At that time, Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, was competing with Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, in Xingyang, and the general trend of the world was not yet clear. Wei Bao began to attack Xiang Yu with Han Gaozu, and when he heard Xu Cheng's words, he was happy alone, so he betrayed Han Gaozu and held a neutral attitude, and then made peace with Xiang Yu. Han Gaozu sent Cao Shen and others to attack and capture Wei Bao, reorganized the Wei state into a county, and sent Bo Ji to the palace weaving workshop. Wei Bao was dead, and Han Gaozu once went to the weaving workshop and saw that Bo Ji was very attractive, and the edict was included in the harem.

Bo Ji entered the palace for more than a year, but he did not get the royal luck of Han Gaozu. When Bo Ji was young, she fell in love with Mrs. Guan and Zhao Zi'er, and agreed: "Those who are noble first should not forget their companions and friends." Later, Mrs. Guan and Zhao Zier were favored by Liu Bang first. In the fourth year of Han Gaozu (203 years ago), Han Gaozu sat on the Chenggao Platform (Yizuo Chenggao Lingtai) in the Henan Palace, accompanied by two beauties, Mrs. Guan and Zhao Zier, and they talked and laughed about the meeting with Bo Ji that year. When Han Gaozu heard this, he asked them what they were laughing at, and the two told Han Gaozu the truth. Han Gaozu felt sad in his heart, took pity on Bo Ji, and summoned Bo Ji to have sex with her that day. Bo Ji said: "Last night I dreamed that there was a dragon entrenched in my belly. Han Gaozu said, "This is an auspicious omen for the nobles, and I will bring about this good deed for you." This time, Bo Ji was pregnant, and in the fifth year of Han Gaozu (202 BC), she gave birth to her son Liu Heng. In the eleventh year of Gaozu of the Han Dynasty (196 BC), Liu Hengnian was appointed as the acting king at the age of eight. Since then, since Bo Ji gave birth to her son Liu Heng, she has rarely had the opportunity to see Han Gaozu again.

In the twelfth year of Han Gaozu (195 BC), Han Gaozu died, and those who were fortunate to be honored by Han Gaozu were Mrs. Qi, etc., and Empress Lu hated them, and they were all imprisoned and could not leave the palace. And because Bo Ji was rarely loved by Han Gaozu, he was able to leave the palace and follow his son Liu Heng to the fief and become the queen mother of the king. Bo Ji's younger brother Bo Zhao also followed him to Daidi.

In the seventeenth year of Liu Heng's reign, that is, in 180 BC, Empress Lü died. The ministers discussed supporting the succession to the emperor, hating the strong power of their relatives Lü, and praised Bo's benevolence and kindness, so they welcomed back the acting king Liu Heng and established him as the emperor, which was for Emperor Wen of Han. Bo Ji was renamed the Empress Dowager from the Queen Mother, and her younger brother Bo Zhao was named Marquis. In March of the same year, the ministers asked for the empress, and Bo Ji said that all the princes and kings were born to the same mother, so he made Dou Yifang, the mother of the crown prince Liu Qi, the empress. So Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty established Dou Yifang as the queen, that is, the later Empress Dowager Dou.

Bo Ji's mother, Wei Yuan, also died long ago and was buried in the north of Liyang. Therefore, the imperial court posthumously honored Bo Ji's father as the Marquis of Lingwen, and set aside 300 households of land in Huiji County to set up a garden, and the officials below the Changcheng Dynasty guarded the tomb, and the Lingmiao worshipped food and sacrifices according to the etiquette system of the Hou. In the north of Liyang, the Lingwenhou Lady Garden is also set up, and all the rituals are compared with the Lingwenhou Garden. Bo Ji believed that her mother was a descendant of the King of Wei, and that she had lost her parents at an early age, and that those surnamed Wei, who had contributed the most to Bo Ji's care, issued an edict exempting them from taxes and servitude, and giving them rewards according to their relatives. There is one person who has been named a marquis by the Bo family.

In the seventh year of Emperor Wen of Han (157 BC), Emperor Wen of Han died, and his grandson Liu Qi, Emperor Jing of Han, ascended the throne and honored Bo Ji as the empress dowager. Two years later, in the second year of Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty (155 BC), Bo Ji died and was buried in Nanling. Because Empress Lu and Han Gaozu were buried together in Changling, Bo Ji specially erected a mausoleum alone, close to the tomb of Emperor Wen of Han. [(To be continued......)
