In the patriarchal society, it is not easy for women to get ahead, so all the women who come out are amazingly talented. The first person in Chinese history to stand up to the traditional pattern of men in a patriarchal society is also the first woman in history to hold the power of the state. She is Lu Yan.
She was the only woman in Sima Qian's pen who could be recorded in the Twelve Books of History, and was on an equal footing with the First Emperor Yingzheng and the Chu King Xiang Yu. However, she was originally the wife of Liu Bang, the ancestor of Han Gao, and was the first empress in history. But now, when people in the hereafter think of her, they can only think of her sad and cruel life.
She was Lü Yan, born in Shandong Province in 241 BC. Ben was a prominent family girl, but his father pointed out to a nearly forty-year-old who was still idle. Liu Bang in the movie "The King's Feast" described their life when they first got married in one sentence: "At that time, we were like the spring water in the well, humble and calm. ”
At this time, they were like ordinary ordinary people, living peacefully. Liu Bang's prodigal son turned back and stopped messing around. Lü Yan also did not play the temper of everyone's miss, and was at ease to follow Liu Bang to suffer hardships, be a city woman, wash and cook for his laundry and have children. Life seems to be good, calm and beautiful.
But father may not be mistaken, Liu Bang, this, maybe it is really a dragon. Since 209 BC, Liu Bang raised the anti-flag from a small Pei County and soared to become a hero Haojie. But Lü Yan was walking step by step into the abyss, and Gai was the wife of the man named King Han.
Only because he was the wife of Liu Bang, he was abducted several times and bullied at will. Every time Xiang Yu was in a weak position, Lu Yan was the best shield. But her husband, the father of her children, the king of Han under the heavens. But he did not have the slightest pity for his wife, who had knotted hair, and did not pay any attention to it.
And in 203 BC, Lü Yan finally returned from liberation from the Chu camp. In the harem of Liu Bang, the King of Han, there was also a woman, Qi Ji. Liu Bang's favor for him was almost going to heaven, and even under the wind in Qi Ji's ears, he wanted to depose their concubines and make Qi Ji's son King Zhao the crown prince. Lu Yan finally couldn't stand it, the child was her reverse scale. She finally saw the man clearly, and finally decided to live well for herself, for the child. She began her almost crazy climbing path, Zhang Liang surrendered to her, Xiao He also fell under her, and Fan Duo and Zhou Bo also began to help each other. Lü Hou came to the dynasty.
Liu Bang couldn't help but be shocked and wanted to seize power several times. But in the end it still failed, and a woman was not afraid of anything without feelings. In 195 BC, Liu Bang died, and Lü Yan began a sixteen-year reign. The man that Lü Yan hated the most had died, and for Qi Ji, she actually did not have the same hatred for Liu Bang.
But Qi Ji touched her reverse scales, which were her children. So he imprisoned Qi Ji in the court, ordered her to eat rice as revenge, and then began to concentrate on the front of the court. But perhaps having been spoiled by Liu Bangjiao for too long, this Lady Qi seemed to be unable to bear a little bit of suffering. Mrs. Qi in The Rice Actually Wrote and directed a song by herself:
"The Son is king, and the Mother is the thief;
Twilight all day long, often associated with death;
Three thousand miles apart, when the messenger says goodbye. ”
Such a song naturally sang the voice of Lady Qi, and this brainless woman directly informed Lu Hou of her intentions. Determined that his son would definitely avenge himself, Lü Hou was furious after all, and King Ruyi of Zhao had been almost made crown prince many times, and his own children were almost killed.
As a result, Lady Qi was made into a human body, and King Ruyi of Zhao was also killed by a cup of poisonous wine. Later historians, after reading this history, will condemn Lü Hou's fierce heart. However, he rarely sympathized with Qi Ji, except for Lü Hou's own kind son, Emperor Hui. In this life, Lü Hou finally got nothing.
