Mentioning Liu Bei, the lord of the Shu kingdom of the Three Kingdoms, the world praised him, he was benevolent and generous, and he was also heroic and strategic, and he counterattacked from a "cloth" to a hegemon, creating many magical moves. And the love history about him is also full of twists and turns, which is quite fascinating.
Liu Bei's first wife was Lady Gan.
According to historical records, Lady Gan's real name was Gan Mei, she belonged to the type of virtuous wife and good mother, she was not only beautiful, but also very virtuous, very loyal to Liu Bei, and also gave birth to Liu Bei's eldest son Liu Chan, Liu Chan's nickname was Adou, and later after Liu Bei established the Shu state, Liu Chan became his heir. However, Lady Gan followed Liu Bei to live a life of licking blood from the knife edge.
In 208 AD, Cao Cao led a large army to the south, and Liu Bei, who was alone and alone, knew that he could not resist, so he had to abandon Fancheng and flee south. As a result, in the process of escaping, Lady Gan and Liu Chan were taken for the long board slope. Tiger Zhao Yun rushed into Cao Ying's thousands of troops and horses alone, just to rescue her from danger. Among them, Liu Bei's other wife, Lady Mi, threw herself into a well and died in order not to drag Zhao Yun down. Zhao Yun entered the siege, picked up Ah Dou, who was still a baby, protected Lady Gan, and desperately killed them to save them from death.
As for The Lady Mi who threw herself into a well and died, there are few historical records. It is only known that when Liu Bei was in distress in Xuzhou, Mr. Mi married her to Liu Bei. For the sake of the overall situation, Mrs. Mi would rather sacrifice herself, which shows that she is also a remarkable woman.
Liu Bei's third wife, Lady Sun, was originally named Sun Shangxiang, and she was the sister of Sun Quan, the lord of Eastern Wu. After the Battle of Chibi, Sun Quan adopted Zhou Yu's plan and used the beauty to plan his life to capture Liu Bei, and as a result, Liu Bei, with the help of Zhuge Liang, not only went into the tiger's den unharmed, but also embraced the beauty.
Of course, Liu Bei and Sun Shangxiang are political marriages after all, and the relationship between them is not very harmonious. After Liu Bei later led the army into Shu, Sun Shangxiang stayed in Jingzhou, and as a result, Sun Quan "tricked" her into returning to Eastern Wu, and as a result, she never returned to Liu Bei's side, and its ending became a small mystery, and there are historical records that she later committed suicide by throwing herself into the river, but the truth is still undecided.
After entering Sichuan, Liu Bei once again ushered in his second spring, and married his fourth wife, Liu Zhang's brother Liu Mao's widow Wu Shi.
That is to say, Liu Bei married a widow this time. Why would Liu Bei marry a widow? The real cause was a shock.
In fact, Wu Shi is not an ordinary person, she has a good father - Wu Kuang. Wu Kuang is from the Chen Liu Wu clan, and the ancestors of the Chen Liu Wu clan can be traced back to the famous Wu You of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and when the party was in trouble, Wu You, in front of Liang Ji, openly accused the famous Ru Ma Rong at that time, saying that Ma Rong drafted a chapter for Liang Ji and slandered Li Gu, a famous minister at that time. Liang Ji was furious, after which Wu You resigned and returned to his hometown, living in seclusion and not dying until the age of 98.
When he arrived at Wu Kuang, although he was a famous person, Yu Wei was still there, and coupled with his outstanding talent, he became He Jin's right-hand man, and participated in He Jin's "decapitation operation" to kill the Ten Constant Attendants.
Wu Kuang and Liu Yan were like brothers in the key iron, and when Liu Yan later entered Shu, Wu Kuang died young. However, Wu and his brother Wu Yi's family followed Liu Yan to Sichuan. Later, Liu Yan had his third son Liu Mao marry Wu.
Not long after the marriage, Liu Mao suddenly fell ill and died, which is what the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms And Liu Ermu Biography" said, "crazy disease", and Wu became a widow.
Shortly after liu bei's Battle of Chibi, Lady Gan died of illness, so she embarked on the road of political marriage and "forcibly married" Sun Quan's sister Sun Shangxiang. After Liu Bei entered Sichuan, Lady Sun returned to Eastern Wu alone and never returned to Jingzhou. As a result, in this case, Liu Bei married Wu under the mediation of others.
Who knows, Wu has become Liu Bei's favorite. In the twenty-fourth year of Jian'an (219 AD), Liu Bei was proclaimed the King of Hanzhong, and Wu became the queen of Hanzhong. Two years later, Liu Bei was proclaimed emperor, and when he established the Shu Han regime, he immediately made Wu empress.
In August of the eighth year of Yanxi (245 AD), Empress Dowager Wu died, and she was buried in Liu Bei's Huiling Tomb, with the courtesy name Empress Mu.
