In 188 BC, Liu Ying died, and her mother Lü Hou did not shed tears, Zhang Peiqiang said to Chen Ping meaningfully: "The empress dowager only has one son, Emperor Hui, and now that she is dead, she does not shed tears when she cries, do you know what the reason is?" Chen Ping pretended not to know and asked, "What is the reason?"
Zhang Peiqiang replied, "The empress dowager is afraid of your old courtiers, and now you should ask to worship the three nephews of the empress dowager as generals, and let everyone in the Lü family enter the palace, so that the empress dowager will be at ease and you can avoid disasters!"
Therefore, Chen Ping did it according to the method zhang Peiqiang said, and Lü Hou was really happy, and the cries of his son Liu Ying became sad.
Liu Ying, the eldest son of Liu Bang and Lü Hou of the Han Dynasty, when Lü Hou first married Liu Bang, Liu Bang was still the head of the Surabaya Pavilion pavilion, and his life was also very poor, so Lü Hou took Liu Ying and Princess Lu Yuan to the fields to do farm work and live a life of self-sufficiency.
In April 205 BC, Liu Bang was defeated by Xiang Yu at Pengcheng, and Liu Bangcang escaped in a carriage, encountering Liu Ying and Princess Lu Yuan on the way, and took them to the car to escape together.
However, the Chu army was in hot pursuit behind, and the horse was also very tired, Liu Bang kicked the brother and sister out of the car many times, but each time he was carried to the car by Mafu Xiahou Baby, although he finally escaped, but Liu Bang was so angry that he almost killed Xiahou Baby.
In the same year, Liu Ying was made crown prince, and after three years, Liu Bang defeated Xiang Yu, and subsequently, various princes wrote to liu Bang to ask Liu Bang to be called emperor, and after Liu Bang became emperor, queen Lü Yan changed her title to empress, and crown prince Liu Ying was called crown prince.
Later, Liu Bang always felt that Liu Ying was not like himself, and Liu Ruyi, born to Lady Qi, was more like himself, so he often wanted to abolish Liu Yingli Liu Ruyi.
In 198 BC, Zhang Ao, the king of Zhao, was deposed, and Liu Ruyi was made the king of Zhao, but Liu Bang did not let him go to the fiefdom, but left him in Chang'an, for which the young and beautiful Lady Qi, in order to replace Liu Ying with her son, cried day and night and begged Liu Bang to make Liu Ruyi the crown prince.
The following year, Liu Bang wanted to depose the crown prince, so he consulted with the Qunchen, but the Qunchen all objected, and the stuttering minister Zhou Chang said angrily: "The subject cannot speak, but the minister knows that he cannot!" His Majesty wants to depose the Crown Prince, and the subjects will not obey the edicts during the period. Liu Bang had no choice but to suspend the abolition of the crown prince.
However, Liu Bang still wanted to replace the crown prince, and when Lü Hou was afraid that she did not know what to do, someone suggested that she go to Zhang Liang, and Zhang Liang asked Lü Hou to ask Liu Bang to invite Shangshan Sihao, who could not move, so Lü Hou sent his brother Lü Ze to bring the prince's letter and ask Shangshan Sihao to come out of the mountain, and the results all came.
In 196 B.C., when King Yingbu of Huainan plotted a rebellion, Liu Bang planned to let Liu Ying lead his troops forward, and Lü Hou followed Shangshan Sihao's plan to persuade Liu Bang: "Yingbu is a fierce general in the world, and he is good at using soldiers. After Liu Bang listened, he had no choice but to lead his troops to personally conscript.
In 195 BC, Liu Bang was seriously ill, so he once again wanted to depose the crown prince, Zhang Liang saw that the advice was useless, pretended to be ill and did not go to the court, and his uncle Sun Tong gave advice to him in death, and Liu Bang had to pretend to agree to him.
It wasn't until Liu Bang saw that Liu Ying was accompanied by Shangshan Sihao that he said to Lady Qi: "The prince's wings have become complete, and it is difficult to change anymore." At this point, Liu Bang no longer mentioned the abolition of the crown prince, and issued an edict to let Liu Ruyi go to the fiefdom.
In April of the same year, Liu Ying succeeded to the throne, and Lü Hou was honored as empress dowager, and because she hated Lady Qi's mother and son, she ordered Lady Qi to be locked up in the palace, shaved off her hair, and let her do the work of scooping rice. At the same time, liu ruyi was summoned to Chang'an, and Liu Ying knew that her mother was going to kill her brother Liu Ruyi, and they ate and slept together.
In December 194 BC, Liu Ying went out hunting, did not wake up Liu Ruyi, who was sleeping, and when he returned, he found that Liu Ruyi had been poisoned by Lü Hou.
Soon after, Lady Qi was made into a human figure by Empress Lü, and Empress Lü invited Liu Ying to watch it, and when Liu Ying learned that it was Lady Qi, she sent someone to say to Empress Lü: "This is not what people do, and as the son of the empress dowager, I cannot rule the world after all." Therefore, Liu Ying had a serious illness and it took more than a year to get better.
In October 193 BC, Liu Fei, the King of Qi, came to Chang'an, and Liu Ying received him with family gifts and let his brother sit on the upper seat. Unexpectedly, Lü Hou was furious and secretly poured two glasses of poisonous wine in front of Liu Fei, Liu Ying, aware of her mother's actions, also picked up one of the glasses of wine to toast to Lü Hou, but Lü Hou beat it off.
In the end, Liu Fei cut chengyang county and dedicated it to his sister Princess Lu Yuan, and honored him as the empress dowager of qi, before Lü Hou released him back to the state of Qi.
A year later, Lü Hou actually married Princess Lu Yuan's twelve-year-old daughter Zhang Yan to Liu Ying as empress, but Liu Ying could not accept it and never came to Zhang Yan. However, when Lü Hou saw this, he claimed that Zhang Yan was pregnant, took the princes born to other concubines as his own, made him crown prince, and killed his birth mother.
In August 188 BC, Liu Ying died depressed, at the age of twenty-four.
After Liu Ying's death, Lü Hou only cried and did not see tears, when Zhang Liang's son Zhang Peiqiang, who was serving as a waiter and was fifteen years old, said to the chancellor Chen Ping: "The empress dowager only has one son, Emperor Hui, and now when she is dead, she only cries and does not grieve, do you know what the reason is?" ”
Therefore, Chen Ping did not know it, so he asked Zhang Peiqiang for advice, and Zhang Peiqiang said: "Emperor Hui has no elderly sons, and the empress dowager is afraid of your old courtiers, and now you should ask Lü Tai and Lü Lu to call Lü Chan a general, and let everyone in the Lü family enter the palace, so that the empress dowager will be at ease and you can avoid disasters."
Therefore, Chen Pingsong asked Lü Hou's three nephews to be generals to command the Southern and Northern Armies, and Lü Hou was very happy, and on the grounds that Emperor Liu Gong was young, he began to make the imperial system.
In 180 BC, Lü Hou died, Chen Ping and Zhou Bo and other old ministers rebelled against lü shi, and then killed Liu Ying's sons on the grounds that they were not biological, and then established Liu Heng as emperor, and Liu Ying's lineage was extinct...
