"Appointing subordinates to the masses and cursing ministers is not satisfactory." These are Liu Rixuan's words about his nephew Xiao Baojuan. Xiao Baojuan was born in 483 and was the son of Emperor Ming of Qi. In 494, Xiao Baojuan was made crown prince. Logically speaking, Liu Rixuan, as a subordinate, should not evaluate the Son of Heaven in this way. But the opposite is true.
So what kind of story does Xiao Baojuan have on his body? Why did he bear the infamy of the first emperor of the ages? It all started when Xiao Baojuan was a child. Because Xiao Baojuan's biological mother died very early, the emperor gave him to other concubines to raise. Xiao Baojuan has been very playful since he was a child, and has been mixing with the eunuch palace women all day long. So why did the emperor make Xiao Baojuan, who did not learn any skills, the crown prince?
Because Emperor Qi Ming had no other choice. Although Xiao Baojuan was only his second son, his eldest son was a disabled person and had no way of inheriting the throne. In addition, the eldest son is also a common son, so it does not meet the patriarchal inheritance criteria at all. Therefore, Xiao Baojuan barely won.
Before Xiao Baojuan took the throne on September 1, 498, he acted only playfully. But when he actually became emperor, things became very different. At first, Emperor Qi Ming was afraid that Xiao Baojuan was too young to take on the task of governing the country, so he selected six ministers for him, but Xiao Baojuan was suspicious all day, so he finally decided to kill the killer.
Without the auxiliary chancellor, Xiao Baojuan again entrusted everything to the eunuchs. Over time, the whole country became a mess. In addition to killing innocents indiscriminately, Xiao Baojuan also especially loved Pan Yu'er. As early as 499, Xiao Baohuan made Pan Yu'er a noble concubine.
Xiao Baojuan not only gave Pan Yu'er supreme rights, he also took good care of her emotions. Especially after the death of Pan Yu'er's beloved daughter, Xiao Baojuan built three palaces for her. On weekdays, the two of them are also very affectionate.
Xiao Baojuan also specially created a golden lotus so that his concubine could dance on it without clothes. Xiao Baojuan also particularly likes to travel, but he has a quirk. As long as there is an object in front of his eyes that obstructs his vision, then he will go on a killing spree.
Not only that, but wherever Xiao Baohuan went, he would expel the people. But many times the people did not have time to retreat, and they lost their lives. Once there was a cripple with inconvenient legs and feet who had no time to escape and was ordered to be executed by Xiao Baojuan. Another time, a woman was too late to escape.
Xiao Bao asked her why, and after asking carefully, he realized that she was already pregnant. Although normal people in modern society will give courtesy to pregnant women, Xiao Baojuan does not. He also disemboweled pregnant women to see the sex of the baby.
