Lü Hou, who is well known to the world, killed Han Xin and Peng Yue, and cruelly made his lover Lady Qi into a "ren yan", and was the first woman to claim the title of emperor after Qin Shi Huang unified China, and was called "Lü Wu" together with Wu Zetian of the Tang Dynasty. But what makes it so cruel and decisive? This is inseparable from the ruthless harm of Liu Bang, a scumbag.
Lu Hou
Lü Hou's name was Lü Yan (劉雉), the original wife of Liu Bang, who called empress dowager empress dowager and had a son and a daughter, whose son was the later Han Hui Emperor Liu Ying, and whose daughter was Princess Lu Yuan. How did Lü Hou marry Liu Bang? It was only because Lü Hou's father saw Liu Bang blowing a bull at a banquet, his face was not red, his heart was not beating, he was calm and self-assured, and he looked in line with the appearance that he could achieve great things in his heart, so he married his beautiful and flower-like daughter to a lewd uncle who was over forty years old. The key is that this obscene uncle Liu Bang was only the head of the Surabaya Pavilion at that time, and his family situation was not good, and Liu Bang's life style at that time was also problematic, although he was not married, he raised a son. At this time, Lü Yan, who married him, is more embarrassed, not to mention the family situation, the age gap, that is, this marriage is going to give a person who may be about the same age as her as a stepmother, it is not something that ordinary people can bear, it is worth a cry, two troubles and three hangings. However, at that time, Lü Hou did not have much resistance, and may be unwilling, but still obeyed her parents' arrangements and handled these problems well. Moreover, Lü Yan led his children to engage in nongsang knitting, filial piety to parents and raising children, and lived a life of self-sufficiency. Generally married to such a virtuous and beautiful wife, you are not allowed to steal pleasure, do a good job, and support your family. However, Liu Bang did not, still hanging Er Lang Dang, cheating everywhere, and did not bring a shred of help to this family that was not rich. It can be seen from this that when Lü Hou first married Liu Bang, she grew from a gentle young girl to a virtuous and industrious young woman, diligently taking care of the uninhibited Liu Bang and this family that was not rich.

The petty officials of the Qin Dynasty were not easy to do, and if Liu Bang did not do it, he would do something wrong. Liu Bang, as the chief of the Surabaya Pavilion, needed to escort the servants to Lishan Mountain, but on the way many people fled, Liu Bang thought, this sent to Lishan is almost finished, then he is also a capital offense, so he took advantage of the wine, there is also the meaning of wine to encourage people's courage, he let everyone go, and from then on fled in the Generation of MangzhongShan. This is a bitter woman like Lü Yan, first of all, according to the laws of the Qin Dynasty, this is to be sat together, so Lü Yan is going to be arrested. When he was arrested, Lü Yan was about twenty years old, just such a beautiful young woman was arrested, life in prison was definitely not good, and later I did not know how Lü Yan got out of the big prison, anyway, he was implicated by Liu Bang and suffered from prison. Even after Lu Yan was released from prison, his life was still not good, not only to take care of the family's children, but also to deliver food to this indisputable husband in the mountains. These experiences may be a major transformation of Lü Yan to maturity and fortitude, her husband's escape, so that she suffered from prison disasters, at the same time, in the eyes of the children, she is still the pillar of the family, once this identity is established, there are many hardships that only the parties themselves know.

Later, Chen Sheng and Wu Guang revolted, and Liu Bang also took the opportunity to rebel. While Liu Bang was outside the battlefield, Lü Yan and the child stayed in Pei County, thanks to the care of the sheren. He was later Lü Yan's gossip boyfriend, and the rumored male favorite of Lü Hou. The uprising was successful, and Liu Bang successfully captured Xianyang and was crowned King of Han. After being crowned king of Han, Liu Bang also wanted to take the old and young families together, but was blocked by Xiang Yu. When the Chu-Han rivalry began, Liu Bang took advantage of Xiang Yu's attack to take Pengcheng, and after entering the city, he "received his goods baomeiren, and put wine on the day." "It's like a sense of déjà vu that has left the wife of the chaff behind. Later, Xiang Yu brought troops to fight, and the Han army was defeated. Liu Bang wanted to carry his family when he fled to Pei County, but Xiang Yu sent someone to chase after him and take his family first. Liu Bang had no choice but to continue to flee, and when he met his son and daughter on the way, he fled with them. However, this scumbag actually suspected that the two people were in the way, and wanted to kick the two people off the car several times, thanks to Teng Gong, he saved the two and escaped with Liu Bang together. At this time, Lü Hou and Liu Bang's father,too much, accidentally bumped into Chu Jun under the care of Emperor Qi, and from then on they became Xiang Yu's hostages. For more than two years after that, Lu Lu lived a hostage life. In the middle, it also happened that Xiang Yu took Liu Bang and his father as a hostage and threatened Liu Bang to cook his father, and Liu Bang actually said, If you are going to cook our father today, then I will also share a piece of my pie. In my opinion, Lu Yan, who was also a hostage at that time, must have been present, how did she feel when she saw this situation? It may be a feeling that the heart is like ashes. This hostage's life ended until the Chu-Han divide was negotiated, and Lü Yan was able to return to Liu Bang's side, but what was the face of returning to Liu Bang's side?

After the peace was negotiated, Lü Yan returned to Liu Bang's side, and Liu Bang also won the Chu-Han war and established an empire. However, time has changed, and Liu Bang has many more women around him, especially Lady Qi is the most favored. History records: "Qi Jixing, often from the Upper Pass", that is to say, Lady Qi was the person who Liu Bang often carried around to spoil, while Lü Yan was "Lü Hou was older, often stayed behind, and hoped to see Liu Bang" Lü Hou was because he was older (in fact, he was less than thirty years old), often stayed at home, and basically could not see Liu Bang. It is reasonable to say that at this time, Liu Banggui was an emperor, and this kind of thing was also normal, and Lü Hou herself experienced so many things, and she was no longer the gentle and lovely housewife she was. However, Lady Qi's pillow wind wanted Liu Bang to depose the crown prince Liu Ying and make his son Ruyi the crown prince, and Liu Bang not only wanted to act, which completely angered Lü Hou and made her "most resentful of Lady Qi and her son King Zhao". It also laid the groundwork for the tragic experience of Lady Qi later.
During Liu Bang's eight-year reign, Lü Hou rebuked Han Xin, killed Peng Yue to assist Liu Bang, suppressed rebellion and cracked down on separatist forces, played an important role in consolidating the unified power of the Han Dynasty, and made full preparations for her to take power in the future. After Liu Bang's death, Liu Ying succeeded to the throne, and Lü Hou took sole power, carrying out retaliatory attacks on Liu Bang's favored concubines during his lifetime, especially Lady Qi, who was made a "human figure". Lü Houchu followed Liu Bang and was gentle and pleasant, but half of his life was upside down and displaced, and he returned to Liu Bang's side and found that Liu Bang had no place in his heart. The upheaval and displacement made Lü Hou strong and resolute, and the encounter of returning to Liu Bang's side made his heart like ashes, so that there was also an extra cruel part of his personality.
Lü Hou's blackening is not so much a blackening as a helpless growth, if you can live happily for a lifetime, who wants to carry such a heavy shackle?
