Without her, the history of the late Western Han Dynasty may be rewritten. Her intelligence is average, and she has never done anything worth recording in history books in her life. The only legend is that she has a very long life span, 84 years old, which is longer than the combined life span of several emperors in the late Western Han Dynasty. She experienced seven emperors, and the emperors became like lanterns. Only the queen mother is as steady as Mount Tai.
It can be said that she experienced the process of the Western Han Dynasty from prosperity to decline, and was a witness to the demise of the Western Han Dynasty, which was hard to blame.
Wang, the empress of Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty Liu, and the biological mother of Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty, rose from her maiden to empress, empress dowager and empress dowager. Her resume is absolutely radiant. It can be said that she is really lucky.
Wang was born in an official family, and his mother Li has a great personality. She couldn't stand her father's concubinage one after another, leaving her children to remarry. It is very violent for modern people. She pitied Wang, and became a hated lady at an early age, living in the cracks between Erniang, Sanniang and Siniang, and grinding her temper to be gentle, virtuous and cautious.
Later, Wang became so famous that he died without grafting his two fiance. The father was in a hurry, so he called a warlock to tell his daughter's fortune. The result was overjoyed: "Life is so expensive, too expensive."
My father thought of his daughter's dream when she was born and the emperor's harem, so he began to cultivate this daughter who had been left out late, and was busy teaching literature and practicing piano. Wang was also very clever, and soon knew what he wanted, so he entered the palace and became the "family" of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.
Wang has been in the palace for nearly two years and has been unknown. It is a very accidental opportunity that she can stand out from the crowd. This is the death of Sima Liangdi, Shi's favorite concubine.
After the death of Sima Liangdi, Liu Shi was depressed and unhappy because of excessive grief. He often loses his temper for no reason and takes it out on other concubines, so they are afraid to see him.
For the sake of the descendants of the royal family and to ease the mood of the prince, the queen chose five children from the harem family to be selected by the prince, and Wang was among them. In fact, the prince is still obsessed with Sima Liangdi's infinite thoughts at the moment, and has little interest in the five beauties carefully selected by the queen for him.
But the queen's face was hard to refute, so she just pointed at it. At this time, Wang's seat is closest to the prince, and she is the only one of the five people wearing a big dress with deep red lace. In this way, the king became the concubine of the prince in the palace.
It's time for the king to live a good life. There are dozens of wives and concubines of the prince, some of whom have been childless for 78 years. Wang is really lucky to be pregnant this time. In the third year of Ganlu (5 1 year ago), Wang gave birth to the grandson of the Liu family. Xuan Di personally named him "Ao" (Ao, Maxima), the word grandchild, often with him, and loved him very much.
From then on, Wang began to live a happy life and was steadily promoted to crown princess. In the first year of Huanglong (the first 49 years), he died and acceded to the throne. This is Emperor Han Yuan, and his three-year-old grandson Liu Ao was made a prince. Wang was promoted to Jieyu by the princess of the prince, and was promoted to Queen three days later.
In May of the first year of Jingning (the first 33 years), the 43-year-old Emperor Han Yuan died of illness. Ao acceded to the throne, this is Han Chengdi, and Wang is honored as the empress dowager.
Han Chengdi, Zhao's abrasive husband, finally died in Zhao Hede's bed, Liu Ao, who was addicted to debauchery after he acceded to the throne. Wang took the opportunity to manipulate state affairs as the empress dowager.
Wang is actually a woman with average qualifications. She is not the kind of woman who is as smart and capable as Lv Hou and Dou Hou. She just wants to make her family proud. The most common way for her to manipulate state affairs is to rely on her brother. Therefore, after Wang came to power, their eldest brother Wang Feng was appointed as General Fu to lead the ministers. Starting from Wang and supported by nepotism, consorts rose rapidly, which opened the prelude to the exclusive rights of consorts in the Western Han Dynasty.
As a mother, Wang ceded all power to his eldest brother, Wang Feng, and the appointment of court officials must be reported to Wang Feng for approval. Emperor Liu Ao was very timid.
After Wang Feng's death, his younger brother Wang Yin took his place. At this time, Emperor Cheng was 30 years old and was in office for 1 1 year. In addition, five of the Wang brothers were sealed on the same day, known as "Five Hous" in history: Wang Tan after Ping 'an, Wang Shang after Chengdu, Wang Li after Hongyang, Wang Gen after Quyang, and Wang Feng after Gaoping. They were arrogant.
There is a poem, "Spring City is full of flowers, and the cold food is easterly and willows are oblique." At dusk, candles were passed in the Han Palace, and light smoke was scattered into Wuhou's home. "The candles lit at dusk in the court of the Han Dynasty can be seen in the home of Wuhou at night, which shows the momentum of Wuhou.
In addition, the Queen Mother had a brother Wang Man who died early, but he gave birth to a "good" son follwed. At the suggestion of the Empress Dowager, Emperor Cheng of Han Dynasty designated him as the new capital, laying a curse for his usurpation of the Han Dynasty in the future. The other brothers of the Wangs are all liehou, and their children also serve Cao Cao with Doctor Qing.
As the head of government officials, the post of "Minister in Charge of the General", followed by Wang Gen, Wang Mang, was almost monopolized by Wang, which basically formed the situation that Wang's consort controlled the state affairs. It was not until his nephew Wang Mang usurped the political power that Wang suddenly repented, but it was too late.
Wang is a woman who attaches great importance to the matriarchal family, but it is a great misfortune for the country to take her as the starting point for the exclusive rights of consorts in the late Western Han Dynasty.
Without Jin Gangzuan and porcelain, this country was handed over to an incompetent woman. More importantly, this woman used one of her "good nephews"-Wang Mang. At this moment, the prosperous dynasty in the hands of her father-in-law was opened by her.
