The first crown prince during the Reign of Emperor Jing of Han was the eldest son Liu Rong, but it was the tenth son Liu Che who eventually ascended the throne. Speaking of this, many people believe that the key role in this is Liu Yan, the sister of emperor Jingdi of Hanjing, who is a conspiracy carefully planned by this woman in order to put her daughter on the crown prince during the Han Jingdi period.
At first, she wanted to marry her daughter Chen Ajiao to Liu Rong as a crown princess, but Liu Rong's birth mother Li Ji was not uncommon. Liu Yan, who touched a nose of ash, turned to Find Liu Che's mother, Lady Wang, and the two of them immediately hit it off, fanning the flames in front of Emperor Jing of Han, framing Li Ji, causing Li Ji to fall out of favor, and Liu Che naturally became the crown prince.
We often say that Emperor Jing of Han was not an incompetent person, he and his father Emperor Wen joined forces to create the rule of Wen Jingzhi, so that the Great Han continued to be strong, it can be said that he is still very capable.
So why did he change the crown prince from Liu Rong to Liu Che in a vacuum?
The reason why Emperor Jingdi of Han replaced the crown prince was indeed a great credit to Liu Yan. Don't look at Liu Yan as just the sister of Emperor Jingdi of Han, a princess, but this person's energy is still very large.
Her mother was Empress Dowager Dou, which was also a very powerful presence at the time. Empress Dowager Dou was blind at an early age, and the only one who accompanied her was this daughter. This daughter was not so honest, she used the connivance of Emperor Jing of Han and the favor of Empress Dou to act recklessly, and at the same time her influence was still very large.
Offending such a person is really not a wise choice. The empress dowager of the Han Jing Emperor was bo, but their union was a political marriage, and she did not have a son, so she gradually fell out of favor. Li Ji was a good substitute, but Li Ji was not broad-minded enough, and if no one sued her, it didn't matter if Emperor Jing of Han, but she was targeted by Liu Yan.
Liu Yan reported to Emperor Jingdi of Han many times that Li Ji was engaged in witchcraft, so that Emperor Jingdi of Han could not stand such a wind. Emperor Jingdi of Han jing was also quite critical of her jealousy, after all, emperor Jingdi of Han had more than a dozen sons, and he had to consider these sons and harem concubines. If Li Ji becomes a figure like Lü Hou, then he is the maker of all this.
On the contrary, Liu Yan also blindly said that her relative Wang Concubine was Also Liu Che's mother. Although Wang Ji was not favored by Li Ji, he was also quite loved by Emperor Jingdi of Han, otherwise he would not have given birth to three daughters and a son for Emperor Jingdi of Han.
What directly destroyed Li Ji and the crown prince Liu Rong was the chancellor's request to make Li Ji empress. Although the childless and spoiled Empress Bo was deposed, but who to make empress, Emperor Jing of Han did not have his own plans, but it was precisely at this time that the chancellor's performance was tantamount to making Emperor Jing of Han hate Li Ji even more, and the crown prince Liu Rong was also directly deposed.
The crown prince Liu Rong was deposed, but Emperor Jing of Han was not only a son of Liu Che, so why did Liu Che stand out?
At that time, the conspiracy of Liu Yan and others was not just to abolish the crown prince, but to make the Han Jing Emperor change Liu Che. Therefore, in this and other ways, Liu Che has received more and more attention in the heart of the Han Jing Emperor.
At the time when Liu Rong was made crown prince, and at the same time Liu Che was named the King of Jiaodong, it can be seen that Liu Che himself was valued by the Han Jing Emperor, and it was obvious that other princes could not rank up.
Not long after the deposing of the crown prince, Emperor Jing made Wang Xie empress, and a few days later, Liu Che, who was seven years old, was made crown prince, and Liu Che finally succeeded smoothly, opening up a generation of emperors.
