For ordinary people, they all envy the glorious and rich life of the imperial family, with clothes to stretch out their hands, food to open their mouths, and call the wind and rain. However, there are also difficult scriptures to be read in the imperial family, power struggles, conflicts of interest, and the 7-character exclamation issued by a 10-year-old prince in the Southern and Northern Dynasties, which is lamentable and has also become a cautionary maxim that has been passed down through the ages.
The prince's name was Liu Ziluan. Liu Ziluan was the eighth son of Emperor Xiaowu of Song, Liu Jun. Liu Ziluan is a special child, special because of the identity of her mother Yin Shuyi. Yin Shuyi looks very beautiful and is a standard beauty. It seems that there is nothing special about being accepted as a concubine, but what is even more peculiar about Liu Ziluan's mother, Yin Shuyi, is that she and Liu Jun are cousins.
Liu Jun had been dying for this beautiful cousin for a long time, and he was not satisfied with sitting in the three palaces and six courtyards, and regardless of the ethics and routine, he took his cousin to his harem. Then the cousin was transformed, repackaged, and attached all the harem favors to her alone.
Yin Shuyi's stomach was also very contentious, and soon gave birth to Liu Jun's eighth child, Liu Ziluan.
AiWu and Wuxia, Emperor Xiaowu was very fond of Liu Ziluan, and he had to go to see him almost every day, which was unmatched by other princes. When Liu Ziluan was 5 years old, he was crowned the Prince of Xiangyang.
When Liu Ziluan was 6 years old, Yin Shuyi fell ill with a serious illness, and as a result, she died of an illness.
Grieving the loss of his beloved concubine, Emperor Xiaowu attached all his feelings to Liu Ziluan's body and constantly gave him the title of official. When he was 8 years old, he sat in the position of prime minister, a position that no one else could pursue in his lifetime. Subsequently, Emperor Xiaowu wanted to pass on his throne to him, however, in ancient times, it was always a tradition of standing up for a long time and not a child, so Emperor Xiaowu's move was unanimously opposed by the ministers of the Chinese. Emperor Xiaowu had no choice but to press this idea for the time being.
A year later, Emperor Xiaowu died of illness and was succeeded by his eldest son Liu Ziye.
As the eldest son of the concubine, the heir to the throne, he should have been loved, but Liu Jun ignored him and cared for Liu Ziluan. It should be known that Liu Ziye was once held as a hostage when he was a child, so he experienced various persecutions and difficulties since he was a child, which also created a special distortion in his soul. At the same time, he was criticized by the emperor many times for not learning any techniques, and there has always been a shadow in his heart. This made Liu Ziye very jealous of Liu Ziluan. In addition, Emperor Xiaowu had proposed that he wanted to make Liu Ziluan the crown prince, and he sprinkled a handful of salt on Liu Ziye's wounds. Liu Ziye turned from hatred to hatred towards Liu Ziluan.
When Liu Jun was there, he could do nothing about Liu Ziluan, but when Emperor Xiaowu Liu Jun died, the first thing Liu Ziye, who had inherited the throne, did was to liangjian to his brother, who was loved by his father. He first deprived Liu Ziluan of the same "power" that his father had given him, and then gave Liu Ziluan a glass of poisonous wine.
Man for knife tricks, I for fish meat. When he learned that his brother had sent someone to send poisonous wine, how could Liu Ziluan, who was only 10 years old, disobey. But Liu Ziluan's overall performance was also very calm, and he did not express much sadness, but before drinking poisoned wine, he said a sentence, 7 words: May the body not be reborn in the Royal Family. This means that it is hoped that in the next life, I will not be born in the imperial family again. The simple 7 words express the helplessness and sadness of the royal family, and from the beginning, they could not dominate their own destiny, and became a famous sentence that has been passed down through the ages.
