Although Emperor Wu of Han had six sons, the crown prince Liu Zhu committed suicide in the "Scourge of the Witches", and afterwards, Emperor Wu of Han regretted it, and the second son died early. After the death of the crown prince, Emperor Wu of Han has been delaying the appointment of a crown prince. Among the remaining four sons, Liu Dan wanted to be made crown prince, but his performance was too obvious, and he eventually attracted the disaster of killing himself. Li Guangli and liu Quyi plotted to make Liu Kui crown prince, and after the incident, Li Guangli surrendered to the Xiongnu, and Liu Quyi was beheaded. A year before the death of Emperor Wu of Han, Liu Ji died. And Liu Xu only knows how to play, not to become a tool, and not to be an heir. During the three or four years of Zhenghe (90 BC - 89 BC), Emperor Wu of Han believed that Liu Fuling, who was only five or six years old, was physically strong, intelligent and clever, much like when he was a teenager, he especially favored Liu Fuling and had great expectations for him, so he made him crown prince, and after the death of Emperor Wu of Han, 8-year-old Liu Fuling ascended the throne and regarded him as Emperor Han Zhao.

The Mystery of the Life of Liu Fuling, Emperor of the Han Dynasty: Is Liu Fuling the Son of Jiang Chong?

Emperor Zhao of Han – Son of Jiang Chong

Some people believe that Liu Fuling, the Emperor of Han Zhao, was the son of Jiang Chong. Emperor Wu of Han was already in his old age when he favored Lady Hook Yi, and when Lady Hook Yi gave birth to a son, Emperor Wu was over 60 years old, and the chances of having children were very small, so it seems that it is not impossible for Liu Fuling to be The son of Jiang Chong. Moreover, according to common sense, it is impossible to conceive in 14 months, and it must be that Lady Hook Yi colluded with Jiang Chong, Su Wen and others to deceive the emperor and make him pregnant and born at 14 months like Emperor Shanggu Yao, in order to make Emperor Wu of Han value this young son.

The "curse of the witches" was the collusion between Lady Hook Yi and Su Wen, Jiang Chong and others to frame the crown prince Liu Zhao, and their purpose was to make their son the prince. The reason why Emperor Wu of Han "set up his son to kill his mother" is likely that he discovered Lady Hook Yi's indiscretion, brought himself a green hat, hindered his face, and could not let everyone know that he was taken a green hat, hated Lady Hook Yi, and killed her. Emperor Wu of Han entrusted Huo Guang with his orphans, and it is also possible to explain that Liu Fuling was not his son, let him get rid of it as soon as possible, otherwise, how could the healthy and strong Han Zhao Emperor die violently for no reason when he was only 21 years old?

How did Jiang Chong die?

Jiang Chong (?–91 BC), whose real name was Qi (齐), was a native of handan (present-day Handan, Hebei) in the Western Han Dynasty.

His real name was Jiang Qi, he was well versed in medical skills, and his sister was good at singing, dancing, drumming, and piano, and married Liu Dan, the prince of the Zhao Kingdom. Jiang Qi became a guest of Honor, Liu Pengzu, the King of Zhao Jingsu. Crown Prince Liu Dan sent people to hunt down and kill Jiang Qi, and Jiang Qi fled into Chang'an and changed his name to Jiang Chong, and Emperor Wu of Han summoned Jiang Chong at the Inudai Palace in Shanglin Garden.

He was an envoy to the Xiongnu and an official to the capital of Shuiheng. Jiang Chong wrote to Emperor Wu of Han That Liu Che had accused Liu Dan of committing adultery with his sisters and harem, and Liu Che immediately arrested Liu Dan and imprisoned him. Emperor Wu fell ill in his later years, and Jiang Chong instructed Hu Wutanhe to deceive Emperor Wu, saying: "There is a lot of deceit in the imperial palace, and if you don't get rid of it, the disease will not be worse (the disease will not heal). Emperor Wu believed it to be true and sent Jiang Chong to set up a special team to strictly investigate. For a time, Jiang Chong's power fell to the opposition.

Jiang Chong had a vendetta against Crown Prince Liu and framed the crown prince, and Jiang Chong dug up a doll made of tung wood in the womb. Fearful, Liu sent troops to kill Jiang Chong. Jiang Chong's henchmen fled to Ganquan Palace to report to the emperor that the crown prince had rebelled.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty ordered liu quyi to mobilize troops to quell the rebellion, and the two armies fought in Chang'an for five days, killing tens of thousands of people. In the end, the crown prince fled in defeat and committed suicide in Huxian County, east of Chang'an. Empress Wei Zifu also committed suicide. History calls it the "Scourge of witchcraft".

Later, Emperor Wu of Han knew that the crown prince Liu Zhaoben had no remorse, destroyed the three tribes of Jiangchong, executed Su Wen, and built a "Si Womb" in Hu County.
