Liu Bang is a grassroots hero, he relies entirely on the Peixian Meritorious Group, and there are also some military merit groups, such as Han Xin, Peng Yue, Yingbu and so on.
Liu Bang was not from a noble origin, and he used to be called a brother and a brother with the meritorious people, and he was also the head of Great Qin.
After Liu Bang became emperor, many meritorious men had the intention of rebellion, and they were all killed by Liu Bang one by one, but the Peixian Meritorious Group was rarely killed.
Only Lu Xian, the King of Yan, was forced to flee the Xiongnu, and Fan Duo, Xiao He, Zhou Bo, Cao Shan, and others were not killed.
However, in order to protect Lady Qi's mother and son and weaken Lü Yan's power, Liu Bang planned to kill Fan Duo before he died, but Chen Pingren left a hand and captured Fan Duo without killing.
Lü Yan was worried that Xiao He, Cao Shan, Zhou Bo, Dou Bao, and others were plotting rebellion, so he secretly did not mourn and wanted to kill all the heroes in Liu Bang's name.
Lü Hou did everything in the name of Liu Bang, otherwise the group of subjects would not be convinced.
Lü Hou assisted Liu Bang in killing Han Xin, a god of war, and coaxed Peng Yue back to Luoyang to cut him into meat sauce.
Zhang Liang, Xiao He, and others were afraid of Lü Hou and were therefore dissatisfied with Lü Hou.
Lü Hou knew that the Gongchen clique was dissatisfied with her, and was afraid that after Liu Bang's death, the Gongchens would liquidate her, so he wanted to kill the Elders first.
He was also from the Peixian Meritorious Group, but later he became the male favorite of Empress Lü, which was considered a foreign power.
He did not want to lose both, so he persuaded Lü Hou not to kill the heroes, otherwise the heroes in the field and the princes surnamed Liu would join forces, and Lü Hou's mother and son would be in danger.
Lü Yan was afraid that the ministers who held military power would launch a rebellion and killed both mother and son.
Therefore, Lü Yan planned to attack first and kill all the threatening elders, so that her position could be saved.
Who is going to kill these military elders? Obviously, it is not Lü Yan's old friend who is good at judging him, but her brother-in-law Fan Duo, who must know that Fan Duo is an army elder, not only has great achievements in battle but also is loyal to Lü Yan.
Later, he persuaded him to make peace, and he believed that the heroes would not rebel, as long as they surrendered their military power.
Lü Hou listened to the advice of The Judge, and did not attack the Gongchen clique, which also loyally assisted Liu Ying, the Emperor of Han, and Lü Yan took the throne as empress dowager.
Lü Yan's political means were clever, although she killed many heroes and Liu Bang's concubines and sons, but her ability to govern the country and the country did have.
Ma Qian of the Taishi Company praised Lü Yan's ability to govern the country: the government did not leave the house, the world was in chaos; the punishment was rare, the sinner was Xi; the civil affairs were harvested, and the food and clothing were nourished.
Lü Hou killed fiercely and decisively in the court of the court, but it was still good to the people of the world, and he did not send troops to attack the Xiongnu because of a momentary anger!
