But after careful calculation, the Western Han Dynasty and the Eastern Han Dynasty add up to 25 emperors, and at least 10 is bisexual, which is interesting. Especially in the Western Han Dynasty, except for those who were short-lived and quickly ousted, almost all the troops were wiped out.
Regardless of the official unofficial history, let's take a look at these interesting and capricious Han emperors:
Toy Boy and Jiru of Liu Bang were greatly written into a small book by Sima Qian, and they were included in Biography of Historical Records. It is pointed out that this person has no talent because he is lucky enough to be favored by Liu Bang, and he is "charming and lying with his boss". Unofficial history also recorded that Ji Ru and Liu Bang had a close relationship and were very popular because of their handsome appearance and gentle manners.
There is also a record in Historical Records Fan Haoteng's Biography of Irrigation. BC 196, Ying Bu, the king of Huainan, rebelled, and Liu Bang said that he was ill and stopped fighting. However, when the situation was urgent, Fan Kuai and other ministers rushed into the palace, only to find Liu Bang sleeping on a handsome man.
Although the record did not point out that this person was Ji Ru, Ji Ru was in charge of Liu Bang's daily life at that time, and he often slept with Liu Bang. The common view of gossip is that who else can this person be besides Ji Ru?
After Liu Bang's death, Ji Ru's fate is hard to test. However, considering Lv Hou's ruling, I'm afraid Ji Rumei can only ask for help.
Later generations often say that Liu Bang made a bad start, which led the emperor of the Han Dynasty to raise Toy Boy, but in fact, there were many such things in the pre-Qin period, and people thought it was an "elegant addiction". How do you know that Liu Bang didn't bring bad atmosphere, but it may be that the atmosphere brought "bad" Liu Bang?
Hui Di Liu Ying, the second emperor of the Western Han Dynasty, was in office for a short time, but this did not prevent him from talking about male tickets.
Liu Ying has a strong mother-Lv Hou, which is an elegant li mountain. But he is a soft-hearted boy. He is very sympathetic to his younger brother Ruyi and Mrs. Qi, and also has great feelings for the male ticket scholar.
There is a famous Toy Boy who wants to eat it, and Liu Ying is very unhappy with this guy. However, Lv Hou's influence was used for evil, and Liu Ying could do nothing about it. Finally, once, this guy was caught by Liu Ying and put in prison.
Later, Ping Yuanjun Zhu Jian found Hongru and asked him to intercede.
Zhu's way of asking for help is very special, directly threatening Hongru: "If you don't save Shen Shi, you will die soon." This logic is particularly convincing: if Shen Shi dies and Lv Hou wants revenge in a rage, he will naturally take care of the emperor's pet, Hongru.
For his own safety, Hongru had to convince Hui Di, so Liu Ying changed his mind and pardoned Shenshi.
Liu Ying is not easy to be true. Under the arrangement of Lv Hou, he married his sister's daughter, that is, his niece zhangyan, who was still very young, as the queen.
Therefore, Liu Yingben was very upset, and Lv Hou also killed the maid-in-waiting who was with him, and remembered the son of the maid-in-waiting as the son of zhangyan. (Actually, zhangyan was a virgin until her death. )
Under the control of his mother, Liu Ying often drowned his sorrows by drinking, and finally died of depression. And what happened to Hongru in the end, there are not many records in later generations.
"The rule of cultural scene" has always been regarded as a key stage to help Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty lay a solid economic foundation. It shows that Wendi and Jingdi have made great achievements in their political achievements.
But this does not prevent people from paying for men's tickets. Wendi Deng has more than one famous boyfriend.
The most famous male ticket of Wendi was naturally Deng Tong, who was not only included in the historical records, but also blacklisted and framed by Sima Qian and later poets. "However, Deng Tong has no other talents, and he can't recommend anyone. He just wants to be charming alone. "
Deng Tong has two most famous stories, both of which changed his fate.
Wendi Deng dreamed that she wanted to live forever, but she couldn't. A beautiful teenager helped him. Later, he finally found the girl of his dreams. He is Deng Tong.
Wendi is an emperor who is famous for his simplicity. Even the harem is frugal. However, the way he pursued Deng Tong was totally inhuman. Deng Tong not only built a luxurious mansion, sealed the official position, but also donated a lot of money. The fortune teller said that Deng Tong would die of poverty and hunger in the future. This prediction made Wendy very uneasy. Therefore, Wendi directly gave Deng Tong Tongshan money.
The outstanding people in the world are interlinked, saying, "If you are poor, you will starve." . Emperor Wen said, "I am also rich and versatile. What is poverty? " So he gave Deng a strict road to Tongshan, and he got the money himself. "Deng's money" was distributed all over the world. Too rich.
Although Wendi Deng did everything for Ailang, Deng Tong did not escape his fate. The official story says that he died in a stranger's house, and unofficial history also said that he starved to death in the street. Either way, they are as poor as death.
This is because of another allusion related to him. On one occasion, Wendi had a sore on his back, and Deng Tong helped him suck out pus. Wendi Deng asked Deng Tong who loves herself the most in the world. Deng Tong replied that it must be the prince. It was supposed to put in a good word for the prince, but it backfired. Because Wendi Deng asked the prince if he would help him suck pus, and the prince didn't want to. How can the prince endure such a bright face? He just hates Deng Tong.
Then, after Han Jing ascended the throne, Deng Tong's property was confiscated. In addition to the most famous Deng Tong, it is said that Wendi's male tickets include Zhao Tan and Gong Beibozi, so I won't elaborate.
Jingdi's male ticket is called Zhou Ren, who is not only beautiful, but also has a good medical skill. Legend has it that it is descended from the royal family of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. When Jingdi was the Prince, Zhou Ren was appointed as the Prince Scheeren. By the end of Emperor Wendi, he had become a doctor in Taichung. Thanks to his contribution, he was promoted. Personally, I think this beautiful doctor has good personal ability.
When Jingdi ascended the throne, Zhou was a doctor, a close minister of the son of heaven and one of the nine ministers. This one is said to have outlived Jingdi and died of natural causes. It can be seen that while the iron is hot, you need to be hard-working, capable and skilled, not completely attached to the king, be low-key, and not hinder the eyes of the new emperor, in order to last forever.
There are many wives and concubines in Liang Wudi, from Chen Ajiao, who lives in a golden house, to Wei Zifu, who is dominated by Wei Zifu, to Li Furen, who lives in a beautiful country, to Mrs. Gou, who holds a jade hook to treat the king. All the women in Liang Wudi came to no good end, but they all left their names in history.
But what many people don't know is that there are also many male tickets for Emperor Wu. Moreover, his high quality and wide popularity are simply unmatched by his grandparents and grandchildren.
The first is Han Yan, who is also a handsome man. He was recorded in a small notebook by Sima Qian and blacklisted. Han Yan was born in a prominent family. He is the great-grandson of Han Xin, the king of korean king. (Han Xin here is not Han Xin, the marquis of Huaiyin, but a warlord with the same surname in the early years of the Western Han Dynasty. He was the grandson of Han Xiangwang Jicang during the Warring States Period. )
When Liu Che was the king of Jiaodong, they were inseparable, which was a feeling of "bamboo horse". Their feelings are inseparable. Han Yan can freely enter and leave the harem and often sleep with Emperor Wu.
"When I acceded to the throne, I wanted to attack the Xiongnu, but Yan Yan first learned from Hu Bing, which benefited me. I was a doctor and rewarded Deng Tong."
Han Yan is not only beautiful, but also of Hun descent and tall. However, Yan Han is famous for being "rich and willful", and the legend of "chasing gold pills" is used by later generations to describe the luxury of life.
"Miscellanies of Xijing" Volume 4: "Han Yan is a good chess player, who often takes gold as a pill and loses more than ten people every day. Chang' an is the language day:' Hungry and cold, chasing golden pills. Every time children in Shi Jing play Yan Wen, they need to follow, hoping that the pills have dropped and need to be picked up. "
Besides, Han Yan is very proud. He became a doctor himself, but he treated the ministers who served in the same dynasty badly. King Jiangdu was also offended, and the defendant sued Empress Wu. It doesn't matter, there is a saying that he exposed the scandal that the Queen Mother remarried after giving birth to a daughter, and found that the daughters of the Queen Mother and Wangsun Jin were monarchs and gold customs, so they were hated by the Queen Mother. Finally, Han Yan was executed because of the palace disorder after the Queen Mother, and the intercession of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty failed to save the male ticket. This was a great blow to the young Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty.
In memory of Han Yan, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty later called Han Yan's younger brother Han Shuo into the palace, and his similar younger brother became body double. It can be seen that all kinds of "body double terriers" in the novel are not completely fabricated at will, and they all have certain factual basis.
The third male ticket of Emperor Wu is also very famous, which is the famous Li Yannian. He was born to admire the family and was imprisoned, but he was "good at singing and dancing". He recommended his sister Li Furen to Emperor Wu through Song of Beauty: "There are beautiful women in the north, and they are peerless and independent, taking care of the city first and the country later. Would you rather not know about this country and this city? Beauty is hard to get again. "
Sima Qian didn't like Emperor Wu very much, and everyone knew the reason. Emperor Wu's three confidants were blacklisted by him. Another classmate was put into a small book by Sima Qian. Not only has he always been the object of rotten girl YY, but also many historical fans cry for him. Here, let's not count him as a male ticket for Emperor Wu. Let's introduce him first.
Wei Qing is the younger brother of Queen Wei Zifu. He rode a slave all the way to be a general Fu, with outstanding military achievements, and was appointed as a long-term marquis. Wei Qing's first expedition was a surprise attack on Longcheng, which opened the prelude to the victory of the Sino-Hungarian War. He won seven wars and seven victories, recovered Heshuo and Hetao areas, broke Khan, and made great contributions to the development of the northern territory.
Wei Qing died and was buried in the northeast of Maoling. Many people, especially rotten women, judge from the tomb of the Empress of the Han Dynasty that Wei Qing's tomb is in the position of the Empress, but actually the Empress's tomb is empty. Well, this adds a bit of mystery to the already ambiguous relationship between him and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.
However, some people say that because Wei Zifu died of suicide and there are written records that she has been abolished, there are actually no concubines buried with the emperor except Li Furen, who was later moved to Maoling by Huo Guang. So the so-called "queen's position" is probably just a coincidence.
The story about Emperor Gaozu Zhao Di is inconclusive and has not been widely circulated. After all, the emperor died at the age of 2 1, so it's hard to say what an affair is. Let's not talk about how those romance novels fabricated his love history, only that there was a golden reward on the blacklist of historians, which was accused of having an unusual relationship with Emperor Zhao. This notebook is not as big as Sima Qian's, but as big as Ban Gu's.
Han Shu Yi Wen Zhi: When Emperor Zhao was Emperor Zhao, Hou Jin, a general and heir to his father's car, was honored as Hou, and both of them prized mediocrity and ingratitude.
Shanxi merchants are not ordinary people. He is the son-in-law of General Huo Guang and married Huo Guang's sixth daughter. When Emperor Gaozu arrived, Huo Guang rebelled, and his wife was given a golden reward, which saved her and made her the only son-in-law who did not sit together.
Yes, you are not mistaken. Liu Xun, Xuan Di of the Han Dynasty, actually had male tickets. It's Han, the only man in the N-word romance novel.
This time, it was not Sima Qian who made a big mistake, but Ban Gu who made a big mistake, just like what was written in Han Shu Xing Xing Chuan.
"When proclaimed himself, the corps commander had studied with Wei Di, and the emperor was the statue. Peng Zu gave Yang Du Hou an old favour, and he often participated in it, so he loved it. He is sincere and has nothing to lose. He was poisoned by his little wife and the country was excluded. "
Who is this ancestor? Speaking of his grandfather, you must know that he is Zhang Tang, a cruel official in the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. When Liu Xun was still in Liu Bingyi, he was taken care of by Zu's uncle Zhang He, so he had the opportunity to study with Zu. After the witchcraft disaster, Liu Bingyi was adopted in the county jail, grandmother historian and Ye Ting, which was also considered impersonal. Therefore, for young peer ancestors, feelings are extraordinary.
One of the reasons why Zhang Pengzu is not famous may be that unlike other rich people, he has always been cautious and has never done anything out of line. Of course, there is no great achievement.
The Emperor of the Han and Yuan Dynasties had a bad reputation because of "Zhao Jun went to the fortress" and Mao Yanshou. In fact, it is not only these people who discredit him, but also his male votes-Gong Hong and Shi Xian.
These two brothers are also eunuchs, and they were put into the notebook by Ban Gu, and they were severely criticized. After all, after the two brothers were favored, they used the emperor's illness to control state affairs, exclude dissidents and persecute loyalty.
Han Chengdi's fame lies in two or three things that he and Yan Fei and He Yi sisters can't help talking about, but in fact he still has a "love of life and death", that is his male ticket Zhang Fang.
This Zhang Fang is also a well-born Fuping Hou handed down from his ancestors. His grandfather Zhang Yanshou and the ancestors mentioned above are brothers, so he is also a descendant of Zhang Tang. Zhang Fang and another Chun Yuchang were also greatly recorded in the notebook by Ban Gu. The legend of Zhang Fang and Cheng Di is touching.
Zhang Fang is a beautiful young man and has a good relationship with Emperor Cheng. "The young man is beautiful, emotional and lucky." The two not only look at the face value, but also have similar interests and often travel together in incognito.
Lying with the bed, I love it very much. I often travel in a small way, from Ganquan in the north to Changyang No.5 Middle School in the south, and Chang 'an has been fighting cocks for several years.
Later, Emperor Cheng's love for Zhang Fang made his uncles look very unhappy, so he went to the Empress Dowager Zheng Jun to complain. Considering the emperor's feelings, the queen mother did not do it herself, but let the ministers seize the opportunity, seize the disaster, throw the pot on Zhang Fang, and finally forced the emperor to exile Zhang Fang to a remote area.
The following are some noteworthy contents:
Emperor Han Chengdi had no choice but to send the male ticket away. When they left, they both cried bitterly. But the separation is only temporary. Soon, Emperor Han Chengdi tried to get him back to the capital. Then I continued to be forced to give it away and cried again. Then it didn't take long to get people back to the capital. ...
Their persistence together is really admirable. Even after Emperor Han Chengdi brought Yan Fei and He Yu into the harem, he did not forget Zhang Fang. He often sent books and wrote love letters one after another, but his feelings were not greatly affected.
Embarrassed, Emperor Hancheng died, and Zhang Fang cried and died after learning the news from a distance.
Ben Gouda wrote clearly in Han Shu: "Let me cry and die."
This feeling can be said to be the sentence in the oath: "If you don't leave, I will live and die together."
The story of this magical man, Emperor Ai of Han Dynasty and his male ticket, Dong Xian, is the origin of the allusion of "the addiction of broken sleeves". The stories of these two people are also legendary.
Dong Xian, also known as Sheng Qing, is the son of Dong Gong. At first, he served as the prince of Scheeren. Because of his good looks, he was favored by the emperor and was promoted to Huangmenlang. Emperor Ai of the Han Dynasty was a very simple man, but he rewarded Dong Xian a lot and he was willing to give up his official position. Dong Xian was only 22 years old when he was a fu, ranking third. Many things of the minister can only be reported to the emperor through Dong Xian.
Not only that, Emperor Ai of the Han Dynasty even proposed to "emulate Yao and Shun" and cede the throne to Dong Xian, which frightened the ministers. Of course, this idea didn't come true in the end. Emperor Ai of Han Dynasty can have this thought, which is also a wonderful work in feudal monarchy. This shows his deep affection for Dong Xian.
The story of broken sleeves is a sauce purple: they often lie down and sleep together. Once they slept during the day, Emperor Han Ai remembered that his sleeves were pinned down by Dong Xian. In order not to wake Dong Xian, he cut his sleeve with a knife. Hence the allusion of "Broken Sleeves". Such an understanding lover is really rare.
Later generations described the same-sex love as "the fetish of broken sleeves", which is similar to "the goodness of Longyang".
However, Aidi's love for Dong Xian naturally made many enemies for him. After the death of Aidi, Empress Dowager Zheng Jun regained control of state affairs. Under the operation of follwed, Shangshu impeached Dong Xian, Dong Xian was dismissed from office and committed suicide that day.
After counting these Han emperors and their male tickets,
We might as well go back to the original question,
Why on earth were there so many bisexual emperors in the Han Dynasty?
Strictly speaking,
Basically, the emperors of the Western Han Dynasty left no emperors except those who were short-lived or stepped down as officials soon.
This is rare in the Eastern Han Dynasty. There are several famous straight men, such as Guangwu Emperor Liu Xiu who married Yin Lihua.
Many people say that the Liu family has genetic problems. By the Eastern Han Dynasty, after Wang Mang usurped the government and a series of turmoil, the Liu family with this gene did not get a place.
Is that so?
At present, the scientific research on the congenital causes of homosexuality mainly focuses on the determination of physiological factors, and so far no theory has been confirmed and unanimously recognized.
At present, scientists don't have much definite evidence that sexual orientation is (or isn't) genetically determined.
John Horgan, the author of Scientific American, once thought that homosexuality is hereditary because of the lack of strong scientific evidence, but this view was distorted by opponents as "homosexuality is not hereditary". Let's just say it's hard to draw a conclusion on this issue.
-This passage is taken from an academic article by Lv Zijun (edited by Pan Science, Master of Entomology, Taiwan Province Provincial University).
Look at Liu's house again. Although this family has always been the death of the father, the succession of the son and the death of the brother, there have been several cases in which heirs were selected from cousins or further collateral. However, emperors are mostly bisexual. On the contrary, other princes and heterosexuals are still in the majority. They are all descendants of high-impedance Liu Bang, and other descendants, such as the emperor at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, are completely unaffected by the "bisexual gene". How do you explain this?
Calculate the probability again, and the probability that ten emperors who are not in the same strain are bisexual is also very low. But this fact has been formed. Did you win the lottery?
So we won't delve into the reasons why we can't use scientific research. Now let's talk about my own summary.
The external environment has two parts:
The first part is naturally the social atmosphere. As mentioned above, being a good person and raising Toy Boy was not a bad thing at that time, and even a noble "elegance addiction".
The second part is the environmental pressure faced by emperors. From the beginning, the Western Han Dynasty experienced Empress Bo, Empress Dou Taihou and Empress Ding, and later Wang, Fu and Ding. The shadow of the queen mother and consorts lingered in this history. At the same time, the emperor's harem is not peaceful, and various forces are intertwined.
From the first queen Zhang, to the later thin queen of Jingdi, and then to the famous, each queen mother placed her own queen in the harem. There are too many similar situations in the back.
The princesses also took the opportunity to cultivate their own power, such as Princess Luyuan, Princess Guantao, Princess Pingyang and later Princess Yang A, and never sent a woman to the emperor. Wei Zifu and Zhao sisters come from various princess houses. The former family finally occupied important power in the court. Wei Qing also married Princess Pingyang, strengthening the alliance of forces, and the latter directly controlled the harem, which decided the event of having children in the harem.
In the face of female elders and consorts, some emperors can fight, while others lose.
In order not to leave his son with the hidden danger of "Empress Dowager", Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty even gave gifts directly to Mrs. Gou Jian.
It's useless. As the grandfather of Shangguan Queen, consort Huo Guang also controls the state affairs.
In 2005, in Xuan Di, Huo Guang and his youngest daughter, Huo Cheng Jun, married Xuan Di.
Looking back, Wang arranged for her son, Queen Xu, to symbolize the union of two consorts. This Queen Xu is the daughter of Xu Pingjun's brother Fu and the wife of the protagonist in The Deep Sword.
Some emperors don't want to give in to the arrangement of the queen mother, so they introduce the princess right to let the consorts of both sides fight. The struggle between Chen Ajiao and Wei Zifu is actually the struggle between Princess Guantao, Dou Taihou, Princess Pingyang and the Queen Mother. Power is naturally changing, but it depends on whether the emperor can use it.
Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, a brilliant king, naturally played this game with ease, and finally mastered the court and harem by himself.
But when it came to Emperor Han, it was gone. There are rumors in unofficial history that the Scott sisters were infiltrated by the forces of Empress Dowager Fu and Empress Zhongshan, and they belonged to Princess Yang. Although the Zhao sisters did help Cheng Di defeat Ban Jieyu supported by Queen Xu and Wang, Cheng Di did not benefit from it. He succumbed to his own desires and got anything he wanted from Zhao's sisters, making himself miserable.
Under such circumstances, it is not easy to have a Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. Wendi, Jingdi and Xuan Di can barely survive, while others are obviously fighting for five dregs. Therefore, under the pressure of social atmosphere and external environment, the emperor's internal psychology will also change greatly. Personal views, their psychological changes, are not the growth of "conquest desire" that some people think, but the demand for psychological identity, which becomes more intense.
To sum up, it is not difficult to find that most of the emperor's "boyfriends" are either eunuchs or close ministers, and many of them are feelings cultivated by young acquaintances.
They are closer to the emperor's life and the emperor's heart. Facing all kinds of "big women" and "gentle harem beauties like water" under the control of all kinds of "big women", it is becoming more and more difficult to find a spiritually harmonious soulmate.
Among boyfriends, most eunuchs can also be officials and take power, not to mention those well-born aristocratic men. The relationship between the emperor and the male ticket is not only love, friendship and even affection, but sometimes there is a feeling of fighting against the status quo of "Yin flourishes while Yang declines" as a companion.
As for the ultimate fate of male tickets, this story has a long history and there are many influencing factors. Changes in the external environment, changes in feelings with the emperor, and their own personality determines their destiny. Various factors make the fate of male tickets very different.
I wrote so much before I knew it, so I stopped writing. ...
Most of the opinions are the opinions of one family and are for reference only. Welcome to discuss.
