Recently, Chen Yanan, the daughter-in-law of Zhu Zhiwen, the daughter-in-law of "Brother Coat", announced her divorce and claimed that she had been kidnapped and her personal freedom was restricted. But what we can be sure of is that Chen Yanan married Zhu Xiaowei, the son of Zhu Zhiwen, definitely not just because of "love", even if there is love, it may not be able to withstand one-tenth of the ambition to make himself fire with the fame of "Brother Coat", and now Chen Yanan has more than 4 million fans in Douyin, and has also signed an early contract with MCN agencies to help him market, and live streaming is also making a lot of money.

Just like an old saying: "The first thing a blind man does to get the light is to throw away the crutch", Chen Ruonan, who got the light, no longer needs the Zhu family, and it is natural to throw away the "crutch", but brother Dayi and Zhu Xiaowei, who were originally damaged by the reputation of the daughter-in-law's live broadcast with goods, are now said to be kidnapped, whether it is true or not, it is inevitable that the face will be disgraced and the love will return to the west, it can be said that the entire Zhu family has been miserable by this daughter-in-law.

But in history, there are also many examples of being pit by their own daughters-in-law, some of which are also very strange, today I see you a plate of five of the most tragic historical figures who were pit by their daughters-in-law.

Ban Chao

Relying on the shadow of his ancestors and personal efforts, Ban Shi inherited his father's title and became Jing Zhaoyin during the reign of Emperor Shun of Han, and also married Princess Yincheng, the daughter of The Filial Prince of Shangqinghe. Princess Yincheng was the aunt of Emperor Shun, who was unscrupulous in her own capacity, often mingling with her beloved subordinates in the tent, and sometimes making Ban Shi prostrate herself on the edge of the bed to listen to them and watch their performances. Ban Shi couldn't stand this humiliation, and after a long time, he couldn't bear it anymore and drew his sword and killed the Princess of Yincheng. When Emperor Shun of Han heard that his aunt had been killed, the royal face was damaged, and he was very angry, so he ordered the banshi to be beheaded, and he was still angry, and he also killed his brothers and hung the corpse on the street for public display.

The second, Emperor Zhongzong of Tang, Li Xian, was destroyed by the empress

Emperor Zhongzong of Tang (26 November 656 – 3 July 710) was a Chinese poet whose original name was Li Zhe. The fourth emperor of the Tang Dynasty, the seventh son of Emperor Gaozong of Tang, Li Zhi, and his mother was empress Wu Zetian.

In november of the first year of Xianqing (656), Li Xian, born in Chang'an, was initially crowned King of Zhou and later king of Ying. After Li Xian, the crown prince of Zhanghuai, was deposed, Li Xian was made crown prince. In the first year of Hongdao (683), the emperor took the throne, and the empress dowager Wu Zetian was in charge of the dynasty. In the first year of Guangzhai (684), he was deposed as the King of Luling and moved to Junzhou and Fangzhou. In the first year of the Holy Calendar (698), Luoyang was recalled and restored as crown prince. In the first year of the Shenlong Dynasty (705), he was restored to the throne at the Tongtian Palace. During Li Xian's reign, he restored the old system of the Tang Dynasty, waived rent, set up ten inspectors, set up a scholar of the Wenguan, defeated the Later Turks, and made the Tang Dynasty begin to control the southern desert for a long time again. Develop economic and cultural exchanges with Tubo, and marry Princess Jincheng to Tubo Zampu ruler with Zhudan. It is considered to be a promising king, but he is still miserable by his own queen.

Empress Wei, according to legend, was originally named Wei Lian'er, and Empress Wu gave her the name Wei Xiang'er. It was Li Xian's second empress, who had been with Li Xian after his depose, and was much favored after Li Xian's reinstatement, but soon she drifted away, and her desire for power began to expand, and through collusion with Chancellor Wu Sansi, she was good at government affairs and nepotism, forming the Wuwei dictatorship clique, conniving with her daughter Princess Anle to sell official titles, wantonly building temples and Taoist temples, and extravagantly making Li Xian's great good country and mountains that were hard to clean up and make a miasma.

In Emperor Zhongzong of Tang, Li Xian's violent death, she also wanted to learn to support Li Chongmao, the King of Wen, as emperor and make the emperor of the dynasty. However, this caused serious dissatisfaction among Li Longji the Prince of Linzi and Princess Taiping, so the two launched a coup d'état, supporting the restoration of Li Dan the Prince of Xiang and killing Wei Shi in the palace.

The third, Song Guangzong Zhao Wei: forced by his daughter-in-law to become a neurotic disease

Emperor Guangzong of Song (30 September 1147 – 17 September 1200) was the twelfth emperor of the Song Dynasty, the third emperor of the Southern Song Dynasty, the third son of Emperor Xiaozong of Song, and the mother of Empress Guo of the Mu Dynasty. In the seventh year of Qiandao (1171), he was made crown prince. In the sixteenth year of Chunxi (1189), Emperor Xiaozong of Song ascended the throne, and Zhao Huan ascended the throne as emperor, changing his name to Yuan Shaoxi.

Li Fengniang (1144–1200), a native of Anyang (present-day Anyang, Henan). His father, Li Dao, was an envoy of the Guanqingyuan Army. Li Shi was born during the reign of Emperor Gaozong of Song, with a gorgeous posture and a noble face, and once a Taoist emperor fu tan looked at her face and said in surprise: "This woman is the mother of the world." Her beauty reached the ears of Emperor Gaozong of Song, and Emperor Gaozong immediately ordered his grandson Zhao Huan (later Emperor Guangzong of Song) to appoint Li Fengniang as a concubine, and to make Lady Rongguo and Lady Dingguo instead enjoy the honor.

Li Fengniang's beautiful appearance is recognized by everyone, but just like beautiful plants are often poisonous, she was born beautiful but her temperament was arrogant and sinister, she had a strong desire for power, and she was also jealous, and she was a famous jealous woman in history.

Because Song Guangzong favored another noble concubine, Huang Shi, Li Fengniang was deeply jealous, so she took advantage of Song Guangzong's sacrifice in the palace to kill Huang Guifei, and then falsely claimed to be "violent death". Song Guangzong knew that he was deceitful, but he had no choice. Another time, Song Guangzong washed his hands and saw that the hands of the palace maids waiting next to him were as white as jade, and he liked them very much, and couldn't help but say a "good" word. After a few days, Li Fengniang sent someone to send a food box to Song Guangzong, and when he opened it, it was the hands of the palace maid. Song Guangzong was too frightened to speak up, and the sadness in his heart could not be relieved, and he gradually accumulated depression, nervous breakdown, frequent illness, delirium, and even unconsciousness at every turn.

Song Guangzong, who was suffering from mental illness, reigned for only five years, and was faint and inactive, and was eventually forced to pass on to the crown prince Zhao Kuo under the impetus of his ministers. He died in the sixth year of the reign of Gyeongwon (1200).

The fourth, Peter III, was used by his daughter-in-law as a stepping stone to the throne

Peter III was the grandson of Peter I, whose full name was Karl Peter Ulrich, the son of Karl Frederick, Duke of Holstein-Gottorp of Sweden, and the mother of Princess Anna Petrovna, the eldest daughter of Peter I. According to the normal succession to the throne, Peter was at first the heir to the Swedish throne. But in 1741, Princess Elizabeth Petrovna, daughter of Peter I, staged a palace coup and ascended the throne as Empress Elizabeth. In order to consolidate the Romanov dynasty of Peter the Great, Elizabeth decided to elect her nephew Peter, the son of her sister Anna, as her heir, and Peter III became the first heir to the Russian throne.

In 1745, under the auspices of Empress Elizabeth, Peter married Princess Sophia of the Principality of Anhalt-Zelbust. The Principality of Anhalt-Zelbuster was a very small principality in central Germany, with a population of only 12,000 people. After Princess Sophia married Peter, she also converted to Orthodox Christianity and changed her name to Catherine Alexievna.

Peter was cold to Catherine from the start. The two were obviously not the same person, Catherine's cultural cultivation was far above Peter's, and her demeanor was decent, and Peter's intelligence level seemed to be still stuck in his infancy, and he liked to play military games. Nine years after their marriage, the two gave birth to a son, Paul.

In early 1762, Empress Elizabeth died of illness, and Peter became the seventh emperor of the Russian Empire, known as Peter III. Peter III, who had just ascended the throne, was actively involved in government affairs. In half a year, a large number of decrees were signed, a large number of reform measures were introduced, some good ones such as the dissolution of the secret criminal investigation office, the confiscation of the church's land, the establishment of the national bank, the support of the development of industry and commerce, the lifting of the ban on foreign trade, and the cessation of the persecution of the old liturgical believers.

But diplomatically, Peter III was in a mess, and as a loyal fan of King Frederick II of Prussia, he actually had Russia and Prussia sign a very humiliating contract: Russia would return all of East Prussia and all the lands occupied during the Seven Years' War. This treaty greatly harmed Russia's interests. Many nobles were extremely dissatisfied with Peter III's behavior, and even some nobles had already taken coup actions, but because there was no suitable replacement for Peter, many coups had been hidden, and at this time, perhaps out of dissatisfaction with Peter III or out of a desire for greater power, Catherine stepped forward and secretly provoked the banner against Peter.

On 28 June 1762, despite peter III's men repeatedly informing him of the coup plot, he was still unimpressed and, as usual, went to Oranienbaum for a celebration, while Catherine had already received the allegiance of the Forbidden Army, the Privy Council, the House of Elders, and the people of the capital in St. Petersburg, and then Catherine gathered the forbidden army and marched in the direction of Oranienbaum to capture Peter III.

Upon receiving news of the palace coup, Peter III panicked. His men advised him to leave immediately for Kronstadt, leading the navy and the forces loyal to him, relying on Prussia, to counterattack St. Petersburg. Peter III rejected this suggestion, and boyishly commanded his Army of Holstein to remain in a wooden castle that was usually used for training. Later, when she heard that Catherine had led the elite Forbidden Army, she changed her mind, took her mistress and retinue with her, and fled to Kronstadt. By the time he reached Kronstadt, the local garrison announced that they had sworn allegiance to Catherine and could not accept Peter III. After that, Peter III completely lost his fighting spirit and did not even have the courage to flee to Prussia, and obediently returned to Oranienbaum according to Catherine's wishes, signing the abdication edict and becoming a stepping stone for his wife to ascend the throne

A week later, Peter III died in Ropschu, thirty kilometers from St. Petersburg. The cause of death is still unknown. (probably poisoned and strangled), and Catherine claimed to have died of indigestion by Peter III.

Fifth, Edward II: Killed by his wife and lover

Edward II (25 April 1284 – 21 September 1327), the fourth son of Edward I, the sixth King of England of the Plantagenet dynasty (reigned 1307–1327), King of England, Lord of Ireland, Duke of Aquitaine.

After the death of Edward I in 1307, Edward II ascended the throne, but he did not care at all and did not want to run this powerful country. Thus, the power fell into the hands of Edward II's closest friend and lover, Pierce Gaverston.

In 1309, led by Thomas, Duke of Lancaster, nephew of Edward II, the nobles formed an alliance against the king. In 1310, the aristocratic group succeeded in forcing Edward II to form a reform committee. The Commission drew up a set of regulations limiting the power of the King, which was passed by Parliament. At the strong request of the nobles, Edward II expelled Gaverston from the country, but later secretly took it back; as a result, Gafston was executed by the angry nobles in June 1312.

By 1315, Thomas of Lancaster was in power. England was even in danger of a Scottish invasion that year: Robert I brought troops into England and sent his brother Edward Bruce to conquer the English possession of Ireland. In 1316, Edward Bruce had been proclaimed King of Ireland. Edward II at this time had two new favors: the Desipens fathers and sons, and his practice of dividing up the land for them was fiercely opposed by the nobles. In 1321, Congress declared the exile of the Despenser father and son, and Edward supported Despenser by force. Thomas of Lancaster led a rebellion against the nobility, which resulted in the defeat and execution of Edward II (1322). Edward II was able to escape the long-term control of the nobility as a result of this military success. In 1323, Edward recognized Robert I as King of the independent Kingdom of Scotland, thus achieving peace between the two countries.

The flying prowess of the Despenser father and son caused the displeasure of Isabelle of France, the queen of Edward II. In 1325 Isabel returned to France to arrange the marriage of her son, where she became the mistress of Roger Mortimer, a young nobleman exiled by Edward II for opposing Despenser. In 1326, Isabelle and Mortimer led the exiled nobles to invade England. Their activities were most likely supported by Isabel's brother, King Charles IV of France. The invaders won the victory with Edward II's domestic opponents, and they executed the Despenser fathers and sons.

In January 1327, the Parliament deposed Edward II. The queen forced Edward II to pass the throne to their son Edward III, and put the rebellious Edward II in prison.

In September 1327, legend has it that Isabel ordered the killing of Edward II. Because of her inflated ambitions, she hated her husband to the bone, so the method of executing Edward II was quite cruel, and the murderer was ordered to insert a red-hot iron bar into Edward II's anus, and the screams before Edward II's death spread to the villages miles away.
