There is no doubt that Emperor Wudi of the Han Dynasty was an emperor who was annexed by Wen Tao and Wu, and also one of the best among countless emperors in China for five thousand years!
Today we are mainly talking about the first empress of Emperor Wu of Han, Chen Ajiao. That is, the protagonist of Kanaya Zoji!
When Emperor Liu Che of the Han Dynasty was different from ordinary people when he was a child, when he was 5 years old, he first saw Chen Ajiao and said childishly: "When I grow up, I will build her a beautiful house and marry her as a daughter-in-law." Because of this sentence "Golden House Hidden Jiao", the eldest princess Liu Yan decided to help Xiao Liu Che to the position of crown prince.
Two years later, Princess Chang joined forces with Empress Dowager Dou and Liu Che's mother, Wang Meiren, to "frame" Emperor Jing's favorite Li Ji (李姬) and succeed. Li Ji was imprisoned, the former crown prince Liu Rong was deposed, and the 7-year-old Liu Che was successfully elected as the "prince".
In 141 BC, Liu Che, who had just turned 16, held a crowning ceremony at Weiyang Palace.
At that time, Liu Che and Chen Ajiao, who was a few years older than him, were ordered to get married, and the two spent a beautiful time as a teenager.
In 140 BC, Emperor Jing died of illness in the palace, Liu Che succeeded to the throne, and Chen Ajiao was made empress.
The 17-year-old Liu Che seems to be still indulging in the hormones of youth, and the words of the empress dowager Wang Xian made him enlightened!
"Emperor, you are the master of the Great Han Dynasty and the hope of thousands of li people. If you are only satisfied with the Golden House and don't think about how to be a good emperor, how to be worthy of the ancestors? ”
Empress Dowager Wang was born as a small farmer and was well aware of the suffering of crops, so she advised her son not to forget Ben, not to be obsessed with beauty, and not to lose his mind!
At this time, Emperor Wu of Han was very young and full of enthusiasm, but there was nowhere and powerless. Empress Dowager Wang knew that her son's ability to be emperor came from the help of the eldest princess Liu Yan and Empress Dou, and now that the old emperor had died and her son had become the new emperor, should she raise her eyebrows and breathe?
However, Liu Che's subsequent words made her fall into an ice cave!
"Empress Mother, now the whole court, inside and outside the palace, obey the old empress, and be careful!" It turned out that after Emperor Jing's death, Empress Dowager Dou had always held the imperial power, although it was not as fierce as Lü Yan's in those years, but it spared no effort to suppress Empress Dowager Wang and Emperor Liu Che. Therefore, few of the ministers dared to side with Liu Che, lest they offend Empress Dowager Dou.
Liu Che has been intelligent since childhood, and when he was a teenager, he was calm and atmospheric, and he could hide things.
Half a year after ascending the throne, he had already touched that there was no one of his own inside and outside the Qing Dynasty, and he understood even more that the smartest thing he could do now was to "do what the puppet had to do" and could not have two thoughts. Therefore, at least half of the obsession, obedience and attachment he showed to Chen Ajiao were illusions!
Since the death of Liu Qi, the Emperor of the Han Dynasty, various princes surnamed Liu have coveted the throne, and the Xiongnu in the north have always been percussive, which can be described as walking on thin ice.
After Liu Che succeeded to the throne, he advocated for tat against the Xiongnu, but the soldiers and horses of the Han Dynasty were undertrained at that time, and they suffered several defeats in a row, and the imperial court was very dissatisfied with him. Some ministers complained to Empress Dowager Dou, adding oil and vinegar to say that Empress Dowager Dou also thought that Liu Che was too young and too reckless.
Fortunately, Liu Che married a good wife - Chen Ajiao!
Although Chen Ajiao is very arrogant and often loses her temper, she still understands the principle of "one glory and one loss". Therefore, once someone sued her husband Liu Che with Empress Dowager Dou, she and her mother, The Eldest Princess Liu Che, could immediately know about it and quickly help Liu Che repair her relationship with the old empress.
It was under these circumstances that Liu Che remained intolerant until Empress Wang, who was born from a small peasant, took the lead in picking out the pattern, which set out Liu Che's inner words. Both mother and son knew that the secret fight in the palace seemed to be uneventful, but in fact it was thrilling, so they met to quietly develop their own forces, waiting for the opportunity.
Knowing mo ruomu, Empress Wang was still worried that Liu Che, who had been stubborn since childhood, would reveal her horse's feet, so she advised him: "You have just taken the throne, and Empress Dou and the eldest princess can only offend one, not the second, remember, remember!" ”
In 139 BC, Liu Che went to visit his sister Princess Pingyang, met Wei Zifu, who was good at singing and dancing, and took her back to the palace.
Empress Chen Ajiao was furious and drove Wei Zifu to be a rude messenger, which made Liu Che very dissatisfied. The following year, Chen Ajiao actually sent someone to murder Wei Zifu's younger brother, Wei Qing, completely angering Liu Che.
This time, Liu Che did not act recklessly, but took out 90 million yuan from his private treasury to wish the old lady a happy birthday and please her. Then, he demonstratively promoted Wei Zifu as a "lady" and Wei Qing as a general of Jianzhang, etc., in order to declare his existence.
Chen Ajiao went to her mother, the eldest princess, to cry, but the eldest princess had no choice! Who let their girlfriend not be angry, and entered the palace for a few years without a pregnancy at all? You can't let the emperor ruin his descendants, can he?
Chen Ajiao went to Empress Dowager Dou, who loved her, to ask for an explanation, but was severely reprimanded by Empress Dowager Dou!
In this way, under the envious, hateful, annoyed and angry gaze of Chen Ajiao, Wei Zifu gave birth to several daughters of Emperor Liu Che of the Han Dynasty one after another... Fortunately, the things that made Chen Ajiao worry never happened: that is, Wei Zifu did not give birth to a son.
In 135 BC, the elderly Empress Dou died, and Liu Che finally lit up his sharpened claws!
Although Chen Ajiao's appearance was gradually declining, she was still arrogant, and Liu Che never went to her palace to sleep with her again. From Kanaya's vows to fulfillment, from two sideburns to indifference, it took exactly 7 years to survive the legendary "7-year itch."
The following year, Liu Che, who was gradually becoming more and more full-fledged, invited ministers loyal to Empress Dowager Dou out of the court and began to select and use loyal and capable ministers. In just a few years, the princes inside and outside the court and in various places already knew Liu Che's great name, and his status was as stable as Mount Tai.
In 130 BC, Empress Chen Ajiao, because she planned to perform the art of "flattery", was discovered by Liu Che and deposed the empress and imprisoned in Nagato Palace (this period of history is very strange, and will be explained separately later, which is too long). Soon, Wei Zifu gave birth to a son for Liu Che and was made empress.
In Nagato Palace, Chen Ajiao washed her face with tears every day and cried out that there was no door. Her mother, the eldest princess, asked to see Liu Che, but Liu Che comforted her: "Although the empress is abolished, everything used is still preferentially treated according to the empress's law, and you don't have to worry!" ”
At this point, Emperor Liu Che of the Han Dynasty completely made a decision with his past self and began the glorious journey of dominating the world and conquering the north and conquering the north!
However, putting down the history books to cover up the contemplation, who in the end made Liu Che the Emperor of the Han Dynasty? Thinking about it, there is only one answer: Chen Ajiao!
If it were not for the eldest princess Liu Yan's hope that her daughter would become empress in the future, she would not have supported Liu Che, nor would she have helped him after he offended Empress Dowager Dou. Without these two key factors, it is really not certain whether Liu Che can become Emperor Wu of Han!
The first half of Chen Ajiao's life can be said to be happy, but the second half of her life is miserable. The arrival of Wei Zifu, the slander and planting of bribes by the adulterous villains, made her completely lose Liu Che's heart, and even made Liu Che want to get rid of it quickly, although Chen Ajiao tried her best to save it, and finally she was deposed and retired to Nagato Palace.
Unfortunately, a great emperor like Liu Che was always widowed and unrighteous, let alone threatened. Therefore, the eldest princess Liu Yan originally wanted to find a good home for the queen, but in the end she harmed her daughter
In fact, the ending of this story of Kanaya Zojiao is a tragedy, the first half is very beautiful, and the second half is a tragedy! In the end, it is still the curse of jealousy, since ancient times, only the imperial power is the first, let alone in that feudal society!
