Concubine Lu Pheasant, why did Bo Ji escape?Uncover the palace intrigues in the harem

There are no absolutes in the world, the universe is always changing, and people's happiness and misfortune can of course also change, so it is difficult to say what fate is. Lao Tzu summed up this law from countless examples and wrote it in the Tao Te Ching.

The foundation of sorrow and happiness, the foundation of happiness.

Famous sentences for the ages.

Empress Lü is one of the most famous establishment women in Chinese history, and her heart is no less ruthless than Wu Meiniang and Cixi. There are poetry clouds.

The green bamboo and the mouth of the wasp tail are all poisons, and the most poisonous is a woman's heart"。That's what I'm talking about. Because the power of feudal society is always in the hands of men, if a woman wants to have a place among men, she can only use cruel means to deter others. In any case, if Empress Lu and Wu Meiniang kill too many people, the world will resent them, because they have almost lost their humanity because of their power.

This made the royal family and concubines of their contemporaries miserable. Wu Meiniang, who exterminated humanity, almost ** the entire Li Tang clan, and even let go of her own children;Empress Lu's method of punishing the concubines was even more chilling. The reason why Mrs. Qi became famous was because Empress Lu finally turned her into.

Human", and her son Liu Ruyi also went crazy because of Lu Hou's methods. However, there are also people who are confused. When Lü Pheasant Liu Bang purged and killed the harem concubines, and Mrs. Qi was amputated and tortured to become disabled, Bo Ji survived and escaped, and even his son Liu Heng later became the famous Emperor Wen of Han. Let's take a look at Bo Ji's life.

Bo Ji's background is not good, his father is from Wu County, who committed adultery with a woman from the Wei clan and gave birth to Bo Ji.

During the Warring States Period, Wei was not a Wei state, but a vassal state of Wei Bao's elder brother Wei Gou, who committed suicide after being defeated by Zhang Han. Later, Wei Bao used the army of King Chu Huai to resurrect and was named King of Wei by Xiang Yu under Liu Bang. In order to let her daughter have a good future, her mother sent Bo Ji to serve Wei Bao in the palace of King Wei, and Wei Bao also liked her very much.

Some friends may think that Bo Ji's mother's approach is a little inappropriate and suspicious, but you must know that before the rise of Confucianism, morality was not taken seriously, and Bo Ji was just a plaything in the eyes of the world.

Wild children", so this is normal no matter what era it is.

Bo Ji's mother invited the famous fortune teller Xu Naiji to tell her fortune, and Xu Naiji told her:"Your daughter has noble fortune and will give birth to a son of heaven in the future. "

Wei Bao thought that this fortune-telling meant that he would conquer the world, so he betrayed Liu Bang and suddenly defected to Xiang Yu. Liu Bang reacted immediately and sent his general Cao Shen to attack Wei Bao, who was captured with his family. Bo Ji was originally Wei Bao's concubine and was sent to the palace weaving workshop for transformation. It is rumored that Bo Ji's fate has also fallen to the bottom, and Bo Ji is about to usher in the peak of her life.

Liu Bang came to the weaving workshop by chance, and when he saw Bo Ji's beauty, he included her in the harem. However, Bo Ji was humble and had no backers in the harem, and Liu Bang quickly forgot about her, and no one mentioned her to Liu Bang. Liu Bang didn't like Bo Ji for a year. The lonely life of the harem girl is very difficult, and the only hope is to be favored by the emperor, but Bo Ji can't think of anything.

Fortunately, Bo Ji has two childhood friends, Mrs. Guan and Zhao Zhi, who are also in the harem and sympathetic to Liu Bang. They looked at Liu Bang and suddenly remembered what Bo Ji said when she was a child:"The rich and the rich cannot be lewd, and the poor cannot be moved"。Both laughed at the same time. Liu Bang was very curious, so he asked them about Bo Ji. Liu Bang then remembered that there was a poor woman he admired and liked very much, so he called her to his house that night. Bo Ji was also very witty, and immediately told Liu Bang that she had dreamed of a dragon in her body last night, which made Liu Bang even more interested.

Bo Ji soon became pregnant. Like many concubines, pregnancy meant that she could not serve the emperor and would eventually fall out of favor, and even if she gave birth to a son, she would be left out in the cold. The only thing Bo Ji was pleased with was that she gave birth to her son Liu Heng. Liu Heng was elected King Dai at the age of eight, which was not unusual, as other princes also had similar fiefs. Relatively speaking, Dai Guo was in a slump at that time, which shows that Liu Bang did not attach importance to this son.

After Liu Bang's death, Empress Lü began to kill the concubines of the harem while developing her own Lu power in the palace, just like another Wu Meiniang. However, Empress Lu, like Wu Meiniang, did not have any big ambitions, or she spent all her energy on the people above her, and the result was turned upside down. Fortunately, Empress Lu did not live as long as Wu Meiniang, and the Western Han Dynasty, which was much weaker than the Tang Dynasty, did not perish (even the Tang Dynasty was almost destroyed by Wu Meiniang, and the harm of a woman in power is not small). In this terrible atmosphere, Bo Ji's mother and son escaped Liu Bang's ears and eyes, and Bo Ji herself was too closed to attract the attention of Empress Lu, so the orphan and widow went to the distant country of Dai.

The enraged ministers killed Liu Xiong, the second minor emperor appointed by Empress Lü, and finally chose Bo Ji's son Liu Heng as the heir to the throne to prevent a relative from seizing the throne. Therefore, it is no accident that Bo Ji's father and son received a cold reception.
