We all know that Lv Hou was the first wife of Liu Bang, the founding emperor of the Han Dynasty. As a woman, she made many pioneering moves. She is the first woman in the history of our country to be called the court. In order to fight for power, she has framed many honest and innocent people, and Mrs. Qi is one of them.
After Liu Bang's death, he hated Mrs. Qi's guts and personally ordered his servants to take her hostage to show his revenge. So, what is the origin of Mrs. Qi? Let Lv Hou hate her so much that she doesn't even have a chance to commit suicide.
I met in troubled times and married Liu Bang.
Mrs. Qi, a native of Dingtao, Shandong Province, was born in 224 BC, which coincided with the troubled times of Chu and Han, and her life was in dire straits. At that time, Xiang Yu was enfeoffed as a vassal, among which Liu Bang was Hanwang and his territory was located in Bashu. Originally, according to Chu Huaiwang's agreement, the first to enter the customs was king, but Xiang Yu bullied and violated the agreement, and Liu Bang succumbed to Bashu.
In the first 205 years, Liu Bang planned to wait for Xiang Yu and dispatch troops to retaliate against Qi, but he failed and was chased by the other side. At that time, there were only a few dozen people accompanying him. When they arrived near Cao Zhou, they stopped to have a rest in Qijia Village. Suddenly, they heard the sound of hooves chasing them. So, they immediately ran to a nearby family to hide, and the owner here was Qi's father and daughter.
At this time, he told the father and daughter that he was a subordinate of Liu Bang and was criticized today, so he wanted to trouble each other. After Miss Qi knew the origin, she arranged for Liu Bang to hide in a dry well, so Liu Bang escaped and survived.
After the pursuer left, Liu Bang revealed his true identity and fell in love with the girl of Qi after the crisis. They got married that night. They had a good relationship, supported each other in their later years, and gave birth to a child named Liu Ruyi.
It is such a strange girl who is deeply loved by Liu Bang. The beauty of the ancient emperor's harem was a private struggle, which was even worse than the scene, which doomed the end of Mrs. Qi.
Spoiled Lv Hou retaliated wildly after taking power.
The age gap between Liu Bang and Mrs Qi is more than 30 years old. The latter is beautiful and considerate, and has been favored by Liu Bang. It is said that the ancient empire once went to Liu Banggong to report political affairs and saw him having dinner with Mrs. Qi. He felt that he had come at a bad time and turned to leave. Then Liu Bang stopped him and rode around his neck. Zhou Chang said he was an emperor like Shang Zhouwang. Even so, Liu bang let him go, which shows that Mrs. Qi has a great influence on his mood. With Mrs. Qi's company, Liu Bang doesn't care what others think of him, as long as his wife is happy.
At that time, some people said that they were inseparable from each other. When Liu Bang held Liu Ruyi in front of him, he said that he was very similar to his own appearance and personality, but not to Prince Liu Ying, the son of Empress Lu. From here, we can see how deeply Liu Bang loves his wife.
Seeing such a situation, I naturally hate to gnash my teeth, and I have already been planning to plot against Mrs. Qi. 195 years ago, Liu Bang died and Liu Yuxin won the throne, which is the so-called "Emperor Hui of Han Dynasty". However, his political skills are too weak, and the administrative power is in the hands of Lv Hou. Mrs. Qi realized the seriousness of the problem and wanted to die with Liu Bang, but she didn't agree. Instead, she ordered people to put her in prison, pull out her hair and pound rice in Yongxiang.
After that, Mrs. Qi's limbs were all removed except her eyes, and she was given dumb medicine, so that her physical pain could not be vented. Then, Empress Lu deafened her ears with smoke, made it into a "human trap" and threw it into the toilet, making her wish she was dead. Even Liu Ying said it wasn't human. Many people will say, why didn't Mrs. Qi ask Liu Bang for help? Even if you can't, you can commit suicide and avoid the pain of others. However, Mrs Qi didn't think of a way? The end result is just fate.
The reason why there is nowhere to escape is tragic and hard to change.
First of all, Mrs. Qi is young and beautiful. This aspect is enough to arouse the jealousy of the harem concubines. "Miscellaneous Notes on Xijing" contains a vivid description of Mrs. Qi, who is good at the dance of bending over with sleeves, which can be regarded as a dance, and this kind of Chu dance is Liu Bang's favorite. On August 4th, Mrs Qi will play Go with Liu Bang, which has gradually become a custom in the palace.
Secondly, when Liu Bang and Mrs Qi met, it happened that she and her son were imprisoned in the military camp by Xiang Yu as war hostages, which was unacceptable to ordinary women, not to mention that Liu Bang was legal. But as a wife, she won't hold a grudge against Liu Bang too much, but take it out on Mrs. Qi and think her behavior is extremely immoral.
Later, Mrs. Qi realized her situation and what she would be like in the future, so she began to look for ways to save herself. First, she found Liu Bang and cried to him. Liu bang was deeply moved after hearing this. She also felt that the Prince did not have the potential ruling ability like Liu Ruyi and wanted to make a difference. Hearing this, the minister immediately opposed such a decision. As a founding hero, the family did not agree with this "unreasonable" request, and I also felt the political threat of Mrs. Qi to her.
From this perspective, the hatred for Mrs. Qi is not only the hatred between women, but also a kind of "hate" involving the big interests of the family. So the hatred between them is clear between public and private, and the anger in her heart also determines that she can't let Mrs. Qi die.
Liu bang's death is an opportunity for revenge, and Mrs. Qi has long been a fish on the knife board. After her sudden imprisonment, she also lost her personal freedom and all her actions were controlled. She lived a hard life and couldn't commit suicide, and finally she ended up in a tragic end.
summary
The son is king and the mother is Lu. All day long, I am depressed and often associate with death. Three thousand miles away, who will tell the woman "the song of Mrs. Qi"
At that time, Mrs. Qi, who was imprisoned, was extremely sad and had nowhere to vent, leaving this poem. This also reflects the cruelty of political struggle from the side. Careful observation of her confrontation with Lv Hou reveals that the outcome of both sides is closely related to the political background at that time.
It is undeniable that Liu Bang did have some emotional factors when he was a child, but after all, it was not emotional, and he rationally analyzed the talents of future generations. However, Liu Bang was not the only one in charge of the political situation at that time. As a dying emperor, Liu Bang had a thorough understanding of the future of the Han Dynasty.
At that time, heroes were the main force, and Lv Hou was the core. Many civil servants and military commanders also supported her "interference" in state affairs, so relying only on Mrs. Qi of Liu Bang could only become turtles in a jar and could not resist.
