Does Liu Che love Chen Jiao or not?

Settle a young wife/mistress in a golden house

Chen's nickname is' Gillian', and the world likes to call it Chen Ajiao or Chen Jiao. Her father was from the Tang Dynasty, and the Tang House was the home of the founding heroes of the Han Dynasty. His mother was Liu Qi's only half-sister, Guantao princess royal Liu Pu, who was an important figure in the court at that time. Chen Ajiao was deeply loved by her grandmother Dou Taihou (Han Jing's mother) since childhood.

Emperor Jing, the father of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, has a son of a harem beauty, Herry Liu (later renamed), ranking tenth. Jingdi had fourteen sons, among whom Li Ji, the favorite, had the most children, and gave birth to the emperor's eldest son, Liu Rong. After Emperor Jing deposed Queen Bo, Liu Rong, the eldest son, was initially appointed as the Prince.

Princess Guantao intends to betroth her daughter to Rong in order to become a queen in the future. She asked people what Li Ji meant, but Li Ji was angry that princess royal often recommended beautiful women to Jingdi, but she flatly refused. Guantao princess royal was furious and abandoned the prince's heart.

At this time, the harem beauty Wang Hui found an opportunity, so she condescended to cater to and please Guantao princess royal in every way, and plotted to seize the throne of the prince for her son Liu Che (then just the king of Jiaodong).

One day, Guan Tao princess royal held Liu Che in his arms and asked, "Do you want to marry Cher when she grows up?" Liu Che, the king of Jiaodong, said, "Yes." Then, the princess pointed to more than 100 maids around and asked Liu Che which one she wanted. Liu Che said no. Finally, the princess pointed to his daughter Chen Ajiao and asked, "What about Gillian?" Liu Che then smiled and replied, "Good! If I can marry Gillian, I will build a golden house for her to live in. " This is the origin of the idiom "A golden house hides a charming woman". This allusion is contained in Han's Hanwu Story.

Princess Guantao saw that Gillian and Liu Che were similar in age and lived in harmony since childhood, so she agreed that the cousins Chen Ajiao and Liu Che were formally engaged. The two married as adults and became husband and wife.

Golden House is a marriage legend that has been passed down for thousands of years, and it is a man's promise to his original wife.

The conclusion of the marriage of "a golden house hiding a charming woman" was a turning point in the politics of Han Dynasty. Due to the engagement of Chen Ajiao and Liu Che, Princess Guantao turned to fully support Liu Che, and the situation in the imperial court changed greatly.

Princess royal advised his younger brother Jing Di: Li Ji worshiped witchcraft and cursed other concubines day and night; Every time I meet other concubines, I often spit on others' backs, and my mind is very narrow; I'm afraid that once it's too late, Lv Hou's tragedy will repeat itself!

After hearing this, Jingdi decided to test Li Ji, so one day he asked her, "One hundred years later, all the women in the harem had children. You should be kind to them and never forget. " Said, while secretly observing Li Ji's reaction. Behold, Li Ji's face turned black and blue. Without saying a word for a long time, she turned and left Jingdi. Jingdi secretly sighed, and the heart of easy storage has been made up.

After princess royal's management, Jingdi found an excuse to abolish the prince and became the king of Linjiang. Li Ji fell out of favor and was put in limbo, worrying about his own death.

What needs to be pointed out here is that China's inheritance tradition has always been "based on the ground, based on the ground". That is to say: if the wife has a son, stand at attention to the wife's son; If a wife has no son, she is the eldest of all illegitimate children. Liu Che is the tenth prince born to concubines, neither an emperor nor a dragon. It was with the influence of his wife's family that he was able to rise to the top, from seizing the position of prince to becoming emperor.

After the death of Emperor Jing of Han Dynasty, he proclaimed himself emperor and made his original wife Chen the queen.

In the early days of the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Liu Che almost lost his post because of his different political views from his grandmother, the Empress Dowager. At that time, Liang Wudi had no strength to compete with Dou's family. Empress Dowager Cixi forced Emperor Wu to abolish a series of reform measures that had just been implemented. The Prime Minister and Qiu appointed by Liang Wudi were also forcibly removed, and even some ministers were forced to die in prison. At that time, Liu Che's mother, the Queen Mother, often warned him: You are new to the throne, but the minister has not yet taken over. First of all, Empress Dowager Cixi has been very angry about the restructuring. If you are angry with the princess now, you will be offended, so be careful!

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty turned to the policy of keeping a low profile. From the second year of Jianyuan to the sixth year of Jianyuan, he ran around, hunting and hunting, regardless of major policies. Because Chen Ajiao, the only daughter, was greatly favored by Dou Taihou, and with the full support of Chen Jia and Guantao princess royal, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty passed the fate of the throne.

Today, as people expected in those days, the' Golden House is a fascinating and enviable marriage legend-the young emperor's husband and wife are in harmony and suffering.

After the death of grandmother Dou Taihou, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was in power, and finally he was able to monopolize the power and get out of the crisis completely. Unfortunately, there is no "wish" after "bitterness", and couples who can "share joys and sorrows" cannot be "* * * rich".

Queen Chen was born in a noble family and was spoiled since childhood. She is charming and arrogant, which is inevitable. Moreover, he was very kind to Emperor Wu and refused to cater to him. There was a rift with Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. And the years passed, but there was no birth; Emperor Wu likes the new and hates the old, and loves to relax.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty loved women even more, and there were countless concubines: in the middle of the Yuan Dynasty, the Mingguang Palace was set up, and 2,000 beautiful women from Yanzhao were given as gifts, all of whom were 15 years old, under 20 years old and over 30 years old. There are 8,000 beautiful women in all the palaces.

Zhang Jian, Weiyang and Chang 'an Palace all belong to the same road. Fortunately, officials and women don't distinguish, otherwise they think that servants shoot, and the big ones get four or five hundred, and the small ones get one or two hundred. Those who are often fortunate to be emperors are ordered to raise their salaries and list 600 stones. Because there are many concubines in the harem, people who are eager for luck will meet again every few years. There are many people who flatter women.

Select 300 people from xixing county, and then pick up the car. Sixteen people in the car are always full, all natural and beautiful, not fake white and green. The same is true of those who serve Yi Xuan. Taste it and say to yourself,' You can go without food for three days, but you can't go without a woman for a day. '

In the harem, Wei Zifu, a slave girl presented by Emperor Wu and his mother Princess Pingyang, was the first to give birth to three daughters and one son for Emperor Wu.

At this time, an unpredictable' witchcraft' case occurred in the court of the Han Dynasty, pointing directly at Empress Chen, who had been neglected by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty for a long time.

Witchcraft is an ancient folk belief; Witchcraft or witchcraft (curse) is witchcraft used to harm the enemy. Witchcraft originated in ancient times, including cursing, shooting dolls (I hate winning) and poisoning. At that time, people thought that it would be a disaster for the cursed to bury the shrine or puppet of the wizard in the ground and curse those who complained. Because the ancients were superstitious and believed in the power of witchcraft.

Witchcraft has been a taboo in the court since ancient times; Because of the simple operation, the suspect can't defend himself at all, which has always been an excellent trick to plant and frame his opponent.

Throughout the history of China for thousands of years, countless empresses, courtiers, princes and princesses died unjustly in these two words.

At the age of 27, Liu Che issued a testament on the charge of witchcraft: "The Queen is insane, and she is confused about the wishes of the wizard, so she can't accept her fate. It has a seal on it and retires to Nagato Palace. " After that, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty confined Empress Chen to Nagato Palace, another palace, and the treatment of the Empress in food and clothing remained unchanged.

At this moment, the golden house collapsed and kindness was lost. Here, the "golden house hides the charming", together with the contemporary "phoenix seeking phoenix" and later "childhood friends", has become a joke about "commitment", "breach of trust", "love" and "marriage".

Empress Chen died a few years later, and finally she was buried with her mother Tao big princess and Liu Pu next to Dou Taihou Mausoleum, the Baling of Emperor Wen of Han Dynasty. Unfortunately, she was finally buried with her loving mother, grandmother and grandfather, not in the princess garden.

At this point, the story of' the golden house hides the charming' is completely over. What is left to people is a long sigh, and what is left to history is endless regret and distant echo. The poem "You can't see Gillian, and there is no north or south in life" has been passed down to this day with the story of "Golden House hides Jiao", which has entrusted countless future generations with full understanding and infinite sympathy for this beautiful and noble queen.

Empress Chen was abolished and charged with witchcraft face to face. However, when Chen said "witchcraft", later generations thought that the scrutiny was full of loopholes and was incredible as a whole.

There is a saying that the real reason why Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty abolished the emperor was to "prevent consorts".

Throughout the life of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, he always struggled with the power of his consorts, and used the means of checks and balances, suppression, cutting off and utilization in turn:

It was because my consorts (Guantao princess royal and Tangyi Hou Chenfu) got the throne, and it was because my consorts (grandmother, Dou Taihou and Dou Jia) almost lost the throne.

At the beginning of his reign, he attacked his consorts (mainly his mother, the Queen Mother and his uncle Tian Fen), suppressed and balanced the military power of consorts (Wei Qing family in Wei Zifu and Li Guang family in Li Furen) in the middle and late period, and directly killed Mrs. Gou Jian, the biological mother of Emperor Zhao, in order to prevent consorts from interfering with the next emperor.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty won a hundred battles in the harem, and he deeply understood the difficulty and fierceness of consorts. Therefore, when Liu Che gained real power, the wealth of the Chen family immediately changed from the advantages of Queen Chen to her unforgivable mistakes.

In order to unify the imperial power and prevent the Chen family from becoming another force in the ruling and opposition after the Dou family, it is completely logical for Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to deprive Chen of her post to attack Chen. The gains and losses of "queen status" are always the result of political mediation in essence.

After Chen Ajiao's mother, Guantao princess royal, lost her position, she asked Sima Xiangru to write "Changmen Fu" for her daughter, which is called "a thousand dollars to buy Fu". Changmen Fu is one of the classic works in the Western Han Dynasty, which is affectionate and touching. However, Emperor Wudi only praised Changmen Fu.

Two years after Empress Chen was abolished, Wei Zifu was made Queen, because she was the eldest son of Emperor Herry Liu, and her half-brother Wei Qing had military service.

Ps:

China for thousands of years, the harem story is full of blood and tears. Change of heart three times, like the new and hate the old. Today, you are pampered and stored in the golden house. Tomorrow you will turn against each other mercilessly, and things like adding swords to your body will emerge one after another. In contrast, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was very lenient with his original wife, Empress Chen. Apart from being deprived of the title of Queen, the level of treatment of the Queen remained unchanged in terms of food and clothing after the abolition. She lived in Nagato Palace instead of a prison for the rest of her life and finally died well.

Other women of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty were different, except those who died early by luck, and all ended badly. For example, Liu Fuling's biological mother, Zhao Jieyu (alias Mrs Gou Jian), was deliberately killed by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. Other harem women who gave birth to children were also executed before the death of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. Of all the women in Emperor Wu, Chen Ajiao died a fair death, though she was not abolished.
