In 180 BC, Chen Ping and Zhou Bo rushed into the home of Lü Hou's sister Lü Yan with great interest, and ordered lü yan to be pushed to the ground and flogged. Lü Yan was immediately beaten to the skin, but before she died, she still cried out: "Hate sister did not listen to my words, did not cut the grass and remove the roots, so that the Lü family died without a place to bury!"
Lü Hou was born into a rich family, and their family had a total of three daughters, the youngest daughter was Lü Yan. And Lü Yan's husband was the butcher Fan Duo, who was an indispensable member of Liu Bang's process of establishing the Han Dynasty.
And the reason why the young and beautiful Lü Hou married liu bang, who was poor and white, was entirely because her father took a fancy to Liu Bang's appearance, even if Liu Bang at that time was a bastard who did not do the right thing, he was still convinced that Liu Bang would become a great instrument in the future.
But the strange thing is that the young and beautiful Lü Yuan actually married Fan Duo, who slaughtered dogs and sold meat, and before Fan Duo became famous, Lü Yan was willing to marry a butcher who killed dogs, which was indeed surprising.
In fact, Lü Hou's father Lü Gong was quite rich, but after Lü Hou married Liu Bang, his life was not good, he was so poor that he was jingling, and Liu Bang basically threw up his hands and often needed help from his mother's family.
At that time, Fan Huan was a pig killer, slightly richer than Liu Bang, and his family background was simpler. Fan Huan was originally Liu Bang's fox friend, often playing in Liu Bang's house, and Lü Yan, as Lü Hou's sister, often walked around Liu Bang's house.
In this way, Lü Yanchun's heart was budding, and she was willful enough to make up her own mind and not marry Fan Duo, after all, Fan Huan was tall, had spare money in his hand, and ate and drank spicy all day long. And with a brother-in-law like Liu Bang, if Lü Yan had an iron heart to marry Fan Duo, Lü Gong naturally had no way to speak of.
In the end, Lü Yan successfully married the butcher Fan Duo. However, the life of the two after marriage is still quite good, after all, although Fan Duo can't make any big money, but at least there is meat at home, even Liu Bang often runs to Fan Duo's house to eat and drink, and also invented a dish called "turtle juice dog meat".
The economic base determines the superstructure, and the early material life of Lü Yan and Fan Duo is much stronger than that of Liu Bang and Lü Yan. After Liu Bang won the world in the later period, the beauty of the harem was like a cloud, and she had long ago left the old and yellow Lü Yan behind, and almost deposed Liu Ying, the crown prince born to Lü Hou.
And the relationship between Lü Yan and Fan Duo after marriage can also be regarded as harmonious, and Fan Duo does not have any scandals. Coupled with the fact that Fan Huan herself is still quite good at being a person, and her wife will not be bad, it is enough to show that Lu Yan's vision of choosing a mate is still quite good.
After Liu Bang rebelled, his strength grew day by day, and Fan Duo has always followed him around, made great military achievements, and also became a brave and enterprising general, assisting Liu Bang in establishing a great cause.
After the establishment of the Western Han Dynasty, on the merits of rewards, the former butcher Fan Duo was crowned as the Marquis of Wuyang. I have to say that the daughter of the Lu family is indeed Wangfu.
Liu Bang and Fan Duo were consorts, so this is also the reason why Liu Bang successively eliminated foreign kings such as Han Xin when he established the Western Han Dynasty, but only retained Fan Duo.
In fact, before Liu Bang died, Lü Hou had already become the actual ruler of the Western Han Dynasty. It was also at that time that Lü Hou's family, including Lü Yan and Fan Duo, had already begun to abuse their rights, and no one could stop them.
Fan Huan himself is indeed capable, but he is also a full wife and strict, and he obeys Lü Yuan.
Before Liu Bang died, in order to curb the power of Lü Hou's family, he intended to get rid of Fan Duo, so he sent Chen Ping to kill Fan Duo. But after Chen Ping, an old fritter, did not dare to offend Lü, he simply escorted Fan Duo back to Beijing slowly and leisurely, which was also a way back for himself.
But who admitted that on the way back to Beijing, Liu Bang died, and Chen Ping could only quickly release Fan Huan and rush to Lü Hou to explain, but Lü Fei hated Chen Ping from then on.
After Liu Bang's death, Lü Hou completely took power. Since then, Lü Hou's family has begun to be a mighty blessing without scruples, and Lü Yan has even been crowned as a prince, and it should be noted that there are not many examples of women being crowned kings in history, and Lü Yan is one of them.
It can be seen that at that time, Lü Hou was extremely powerful, and Lü Yan, like her sister, also tried her best to exclude dissidents after gaining power. Chen Ping, Zhou Bo and others who had offended her before became the target of her retaliation.
Lü Yan was tyrannical, did no evil, often beat people or scolded, and had overthrown many ministers, and everyone was afraid of her.
Chen Ping was lü yan's first target of murder, only because he had offended lü yan once. In order to win Lü Hou's trust, Chen Ping did not hesitate to drink and have fun all day, paralyzing Lü Hou's family and safely lurking in the palace.
At that time, another civil official in the court, Zhou Bo, was also hated by Lü Yan because he had written to persuade Lü Hou to manage Lü Yuan. Since then, every time Lü Yan saw Zhou Bo, she would speak harshly and hurt people.
However, although Lü Yan is willful and domineering, she is indeed far-sighted. Because Lü Hou was old, before her death, in order to ensure the rights of the Lü family, Lü Hou made his nephew Lü Lu a great general and put the military power into his hands.
However, after Lü Hou's death, Lü Lu did not have the will to become an official, and actually wanted to give up the military power of the Northern Army and return to his own fiefdom, and after being learned by Lü Yan, he scolded: "If you are a great general who gives up military power, then Lü Shi is estimated to be dead and buried!"
Sure enough, as soon as Lü Lu left the Northern Army, the Lü family lost the protector for a while, and then all of the nearly a thousand people in the Lü family were cleansed.
After the rule of the Lü clique was completely overthrown, the civil and military officials began to count the various crimes of the Lü family, especially the once most powerful Lü Yan became the target of criticism and put Lü Yan in prison.
As soon as Lu Yan was caught, those she had offended once took revenge. Among them, Chen Ping and Zhou Bo, who were deeply persecuted by Lü Yan, naturally bore the brunt of it, and repeatedly tortured Lü Yan under the pretext of interrogation, so that they finally beat Lü Yan to death.
Overall, Lu Yan was lucky in this life. Unfortunately, she was born in the Lü family, and when she gained power, she bullied others, and when she lost power, she was beaten to death by people, after all, under the big situation of Lu Lu, she had no choice.
