The crazy Emperor Wudi of Han forcibly broke into the people's house, violently opened the door, and a woman of the people let her get scared and went under the bed!
Emperor
Once, Emperor Wu of Han took the samurai around him to do a vote to force intrude into people's houses, and the behavior was barbaric enough! Violent enough!
On that day, Emperor Wu of Han was in a good mood, and he led a large group of people out of the Hengcheng Gate north of Chang'an City, and then went straight to Changling, the burial place of Liu Bang, the ancestor of Han Gao. He did not go to worship the high ancestors, but to do a big thing.
He arrived at a town near Changling, a mausoleum built by the Western Han Empire that had moved a large number of people. After the death of many emperors of the Western Han Dynasty, they often built a city next to their mausoleums, and then relocated the population to live, making the people around the mausoleum very popular, which was a feature of the Western Han Dynasty.

Emperor Wudi's men carried out martial law in front of the road, Emperor Wu was in a hurry, after reaching a lane, there was a door blocking the way, Emperor Wu ordered people to forcibly open it, and then drove in, until a house in front of the car to get off, the local people did not know what to do, only to see a group of warriors have surrounded this house, they all thought they were going to raid the house.
The people around Emperor Wu shouted and demanded to open the door, and this family made the six gods frightened and masterless, and there was a private woman in the house who directly went under the bed.
Emperor Wu's subordinates found this woman, but respectfully brought her to Emperor Wu, and Emperor Wu of Han actually cried: "My eldest sister, you really make me easy to find!" ”
Emperor Wu of Han with his sister
The woman was already frightened and unable to speak, and it was really stupid to hear that the handsome man in front of her was the current emperor! She didn't know why the emperor called her eldest sister, and Emperor Wu didn't explain it to her, so she let her get on the bus and go directly back to the Chang'an Palace. On the way, Emperor Wu issued a decree to inform the empress dowager quickly, saying that the emperor would arrive soon, and there was a surprise for her old man's home.
After entering the palace, the empress dowager Wang Shi had already waited: "What is the emperor going to do, is he not tired?" Surprise me! Emperor Wu of Han smiled happily at this time: "I went to help the empress dowager with big things." The empress dowager was puzzled, and Emperor Wu of Han immediately asked people to bring the daughter of the people to the empress: "Empress Dowager, I have found your daughter, my eldest sister." ”
The empress dowager also stayed, and went forward to hug her daughter who was kneeling on the ground and cried bitterly. Emperor Wu of Han gave a large amount of money to his sister, and the empress dowager was moved to tears. Emperor Wu also had three sisters, Princess Pingyang, Princess Nangong, and Princess Longxu, all came out to see their sister.
Emperor Wu of Han's mother and former husband, King Jin' grandson
What's going on here? Where did Emperor Wu of Han come from with a folk sister? To make a long story short, this woman was indeed Emperor Wu's sister, but she was a half-brother.
In the Western Han Dynasty, people did not exaggerate as the demand for women to remarry as later generations, and they did not yet reach the point where the Song Dynasty had heavenly reason, destroyed people's desires, and wanted chastity.
Emperor Wu of Han's mother was surnamed Wang, and was known as Empress Wang. Before marrying Emperor Wu of Han's father, Emperor Jingdi of Han, she married once, married the Jin family living in the Changling area, and had a daughter with her husband, King Jin, who was a folk daughter.
However, the empress dowager's mother hoped that the family would develop and find someone to tell her fate, saying that Emperor Wu's mother would give birth to a son of heaven in the future, so Emperor Wu's grandmother forcibly took her daughter away, and the Jin family desperately opposed it to no avail.
Golden customs
And Emperor Wu had a good friend Han Yan who heard this story and told Emperor Wu. Emperor Wu had already sent spies to Changling to secretly verify it before, and after knowing what he knew, he openly went to the brigade, and he also wanted to do filial piety, make his mother happy, and let the whole family come to a big reunion.
Emperor Wu of Han had money and status, and it was easy to find a sister who was hidden from the people. He did a beautiful thing for his mother, but it was also a harmful thing. Why?
