There are more than 300 orthodox emperors in Chinese history. However, although the emperor represents supreme, everything is not absolute, so there are always a few who are very frustrated, Emperor Hui of Han Liu Ying is one of them.

When Liu Bang was still the head of the pavilion, although he had not yet married, he already had a son named Liu Fei . However, since this son was born to the mistress Cao's , he could only be the eldest son of the concubine. Later, when the wealthy family saw that Liu Bang had a very extraordinary face, they betrothed Lu Zhi and to Liu Bang. As the main wife, Lu Zhi's son Liu Ying naturally became the eldest son.
Whether he was the eldest son was originally not important to Liu Ying, but he did not expect that the world would be in a turbulent manner within a few years of peace, and Liu Bang was a restless lord and directly rebelled. But only four or five years later, Liu Bang returned from defeat, and the war also affected Liu Bang's hometown, causing Lu Zhi to have to escape with Liu Ying.

However, during the escape, Liu Ying accidentally lost her mother Lu Zhi. Because she was young and did not know the world, she could only wander around Pei County alone. Liu Bang happened to pass by Pei County while running away, and coincidentally met Liu Ying's brother and sister. Liu Ying originally thought that with this, life would always be more stable, but she didn't expect that Xiang Yu would catch up with soon.
According to the records of "Records of the Grand Historian: Xiang Yu's Records" : " King of Han had to escape with dozens of cavalry, wanting to pass Pei, and take over the family and go west; Chu also let people chase Pei.... The King of Han got Xiaohui and Lu Yuan, so he carried him. Chu cavalry chased Han, and the King of Han was anxious and pushed him under the chariot of Xiaohui and Lu Yuan. Teng Gong often downloaded it."

at that time, and Liu Bang was afraid of being chased by the Chu army. In order to reduce the weight of the carriage, he threw Liu Ying and his daughter Liu Le off the carriage. Fortunately, Xiahou Ying was a good man and pulled them back to the carriage, otherwise Liu Ying would be abandoned.
So Liu Ying, the eldest son, did not live well in his youth, but he was gentle and kind-hearted and was still filial to his father Liu Bang as before. Later, Liu Bang defeated Xiang Yu and became emperor in founding the country. Liu Ying was made the crown prince because of his eldest son.

However, Liu Bang later found out that Liu Ying was not like him at all, so he had the idea of re-establishing the prince. At that time, Lu Zhi was old and deteriorated, and she was very favored by Concubine Qi, so Liu Bang wanted to make Concubine Qi's son Liu Ruyi, the crown prince.
If Liu Ying loses the position of crown prince, Lu Zhi's status will also be damaged. Lu Zhi is naturally unwilling, so she asked for , Shangshan Four Haos , so that Liu Ying can keep the position of crown prince. After Liu Bang's death, Liu Ying succeeded to the throne. However, although Liu Ying became the emperor, she lived a life without any freedom.

In fact, the reason is very simple, because Liu Ying is in name but not real, and most of the power is controlled by Lu Zhi. Not only that, Lu Zhi was simply useless for the sake of profit. When Liu Ying ascended the throne, she asked him to marry his niece, Zhang, as the queen.
Zhang is the daughter of Princess Lu Yuan. On the surface, it was a marriage that was kinship, but in fact it was just Lu Zhi's attempt to consolidate her power and position, and use it to develop the power of foreign relatives and achieve long-term control of the government.

However, Zhang was not only young and could not get married, but this marriage was contrary to human relations, which made Liu Ying very embarrassed and could not accept it. However, due to the coercion of her mother, Liu Ying did not dare to resist in her misery, and finally married Zhang in a frustration.
After Lu Zhi took power, the most wanted to do was to get rid of her old rival, Concubine Qi, so she desperately suppressed Concubine Qi and her son. At that time, because Liu Ying tried his best to protect Liu Ruyi, Lu Zhi failed to succeed, but she only had to be a thief for a thousand days, so how could she be a thief for a thousand days?

So in the end, Lu Zhi succeeded and poisoned Liu Ruyi. After Mrs. Qi lost her son, this "Amulet" , she made Lu Zhi "Mangu" . Later, Liu Ying met Mrs. Qi in the toilet, and was harmed by her mother to this kind of tragic situation. She felt a knot in her heart, and she drank all day long to relieve her sorrows, and she had a chronic illness.
In fact, Liu Ying has only been emperor for seven years and passed away at the age of 24 for a reason.At that time, Lu Zhi controlled the government. Although she had the intention to clear the obstacles for Liu Ying, it was also true that she was greedy for power and also oppressed Liu Ying's freedom in life.

At the same time, Liu Ying's temperament was destined to not agree with Lu Zhi's actions, and he did not dare to resist. Liu Ying was inevitably involved in his thoughts and struggled all day long, which affected his physical and mental health.
It can be said that Lu Zhi indirectly killed her son. If Lu Zhi was not so domineering, Liu Ying would not have died of depression. Although Lu Zhi is a qualified politician, she is not a qualified mother.
