In the last years of the Qin Dynasty, the world was in chaos. At this time, the Qin Dynasty was facing various rebel armies, and at this time, the Qin Dynasty was heading for extinction. At the end of the Qin Dynasty, there were very many rebel armies, so Liu Bang was one of them. It is worth mentioning that when Liu Bang revolted, a white snake was killed, which made Liu Bang at that time worshipped by people.
According to the records of the history books, the snake was very large, but the people at that time did not dare to kill it, so Liu Bang stepped forward. At the time of Liu Bang's uprising, the county order of Pei County at that time was good with Lü Bus, that is, Lü Yan's father was good friends. Just as Liu Bang was going to He Xi's home in Pei County, Liu Bang met Lü Gong.
When Lü Gong first saw Liu Bang, he thought that this person was not a small person, and he would definitely achieve great things in the future. Under such circumstances, Lü Gong wanted to marry his daughter to Liu Bang. The woman to be married was Lü Yan, who was Empress Lü in the Western Han Dynasty. You know, Lü Yan is nearly 20 years younger than Liu Bang, and under such an age gap, Liu Bang can be Lü Yan's father.
In ancient times, age gaps were common. After marrying Liu Bang, Lü Yan had children until the establishment of the Han Dynasty, and at this time Lü Yan underwent great changes. That is, Lu Yan began to become fierce. For example, in terms of designing to kill Han Xin, Lü Yan was a strategist. Regarding Han Xin's death, it must have been controversial.
The controversy is whether Lü Yan killed Han Xin or whether Liu Bang instructed Lü Yan to kill Han Xin. This is all off-topic, then again, after the establishment of the Western Han Dynasty, Lü Yan was no longer the original wife and mother. After all, Liu Bang's identity is not the original "little bastard", at this time Liu Bang needs a woman who can assist him.
After Liu Bang conquered the world, he began to have three wives and four concubines, and at this time Liu Bang had Lady Qi. In other words, Lady Qi became Lü Yan's "love enemy". The biggest feature of Mrs. Qi is that she is very beautiful, and secondly, Mrs. Qi is good at singing and dancing. Nowadays, Madame Qi has become the earliest female dancer in the Han Dynasty and the earliest female singer in the Han Dynasty.
How could such a woman Liu Bang not like it? Mrs. Qi's piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, singing and dancing are omniscient, so that Liu Bang must be immersed in the beauty of Lady Qi. Lady Qi and Liu Bang were like glue, and after that, the two had children, which was Liu Ruyi. At that time, Liu Bang had already made Liu Ying crown prince.
After Lady Qi gained favor, she always said bad things about Liu Ying, the crown prince, by Liu Bang's side. The crown prince Liu Ying was benevolent and cowardly, and Liu Bang thought that Liu Ying was not like himself, and often planned to depose the prince and establish Ruyi, and the reason why Liu Bang thought so was definitely related to Lady Qi's words. However, Liu Bang thought of Lü Yan and had to give up this idea.
Liu Ruyi continued to grow up, Liu Bang was more and more fond of him, and Lü Yan felt pressure at this time. If one day Liu Bang really changed the prince, then the problem will definitely arise. At this time, Lü Yan began to cultivate his own confidants in order not to let Liu Bang change the crown prince. During Liu Bang's reign, Lü Yan's power in the harem continued to expand.
Lü Yan's power continued to expand, and after that, Lady Qi's good days came to an end. After Liu Bang's death, the pheasant carried out an almost crazy suppression revenge on Lady Qi. It was at this time that Lü Yan made Lady Qi into a human figure, that is, chopping off the limbs, going out the eyes, injecting copper into the ears, making her deaf, and so on, in short, it was very miserable under such circumstances.
Therefore, people's evaluation of Lü Yan is fierce. Lady Qi knew that if she could not fight Lü Yan in the future, she would definitely not have a good end, so Lady Qi wanted to replace Lü Yan. Liu Bang's death shattered all of Lady Qi's plans, and even if she wanted to replace Lü Yan, it was impossible at this time. At this time, Lü Yan's son Liu Ying took the throne.
So Lu Yan began to cover the sky with one hand. So now it seems that people think that Lü Yan is fierce, but the question is, who can understand Lü Yan's pitifulness? Liu Bang became increasingly distant from Lü Yan, and who knew about lü Lu's inner loneliness at that time? Without Lü Yan's father's insight and pearls, marrying his daughter to him, I am afraid that there is no possibility for Liu Bang to establish the Western Han Dynasty.
After Liu Bang's uprising, Liu Bang's view of Lü Yan began to change. As a woman, Lü Yan needs more love, but Liu Bang has Lady Qi, who understands Lü Yan's heart? Lady Qi and Liu Bang, who is willing to take care of her a little? Who would give her a little sympathy? Nowadays, it seems that Lu Yan is the most pitiful woman.
