Although Lv Hou actually came to power, she abided by the wills arranged by important people before Liu Bang's death, and successively reused founding heroes such as Xiao He, Cao Can, Tomb, Chen Ping and Zhou Bo. And these ministers govern by doing nothing, conform to public opinion and never serve the people. Economically, light taxes are implemented. Implement a liberal policy towards industry and commerce.
During the reign of Lv Hou, all fields including politics, legal system, economy, ideology and culture laid a solid foundation for "the rule of culture and scenery".
In the twelfth year of Emperor Gaozu (BC 195), Liu Bang died. 17-year-old Liu Ying is the Empress Dowager and Lv Zhi is the Empress Dowager. Liu Ying is young and weak, and the power is in Lv Hou's hands.
In order to cut off the dissidents and be poisoned, Mrs. Qi's hands and feet were cut off, her eyes were gouged out, her ears were burned, and she was drugged, which made her speechless. She was locked in the toilet and let her cry, and she was called "The Man on Earth". Liu Ying was dissatisfied with her mother's cruelty and abandoned the principle of state affairs.
188 years ago, Liu Ying died of depression, and the former emperor and Lv Hou became the first person under the dictatorship of Queen China. Shaodi accused his biological mother of being killed by Lv Hou.
184 years ago, Lv Hou killed the young emperor Gong Liu and made Likas the young emperor. Lv Hou is still alive, so Rickas is not called the first year.
Lv Hou has the demeanor of a politician. Xiongnu took the opportunity of Liu Bang's death and wrote a book to humiliate Lv Hou, saying, "You lost your husband and I lost my wife. The two hosts are unhappy, so there is nothing to worry about. They are willing to take everything and have nothing to lose. " Lv Hou adopted Lu Bu's idea, suppressed his anger and calmly replied: "I am old, abandoned, my teeth have deteriorated, and it is inconvenient to walk." Then he gave the horses and chariots, declined politely, and finally turned the war into friendship. Feeling ashamed and disrespectful, the Huns sent messengers to apologize to the Han Dynasty.
In order to strengthen his rule, Lv Hou took the policy of "ruling by doing nothing" and consolidated the regime of the Western Han Dynasty. At the same time, he first attacked governors and political enemies, and reused his minions and them. Then arrange henchmen to make Zhu Lu and the son of his beloved harem beauty a prince. Then he killed Wang Zhao Liu You and Liang Wang Liu Hui. The right prime minister, Wang Ling, resolutely opposed the policy of making Lu king and insisted on the Covenant between Gaozu and his ministers. "If Liu Wei is not king, the world will attack it." Lv Hou was very unhappy, so he named him the emperor's teacher and deprived him of his power as prime minister. The grave had to go home sick. Then let Shen Shi be left as prime minister, and put it to use. Although Chen Ping and Zhou Bo refused to obey, they had to obey. Grain inspection does not deal with the affairs within the scope of the functions and powers of Prime Minister Zuo, but specifically supervises and manages the palace affairs, just like the doctor's advice. Lv Hou often makes decisions with him, and ministers can only make decisions by examining grain. His behavior was strongly opposed by Liu Zongshi and his ministers.
Lv Hou posthumously presented his two deceased brothers, the eldest brother Zhou Luhou, Lv Ze Wei and Lu Wei, which was the beginning of making King Zhu Lu. In the first year of Lv Hou (before 187), my nephew Lu Tai was made King Lu and Lu Chan was made King Liang. Lv Lu was made a nephew of Wang Zhao, and his father Lu Wen was made king of Xuan Lu. Zhang Qian, the son of Princess Luyuan, was named King Lu, and her daughter married Liu Zhang, and was named Zhu, the son of Lu Pei Hou, and the nephew Lu Pingzhu. In the second year, Lv Hou, Zheng Lu and Lv Tai died one after another, and Wang Su posthumous title Lv Jiawei. In the fourth year of Jian 'an, his sister was named as a temporary light Hou, his nephew Lu Zhishen as a redundant Hou, and Lu Zhishen as a Lu Chenghou. More than a dozen people in the Lushi family have been made kings.
Historical Records records: "Lv Hou was resolute and helped Gaozu rule the world. Attorney General Dulu Hou Li "One of the most famous events is that the mastermind killed Han Xin and Peng Yue, forced against Ying Bu, and finally destroyed them. These three things happened in the year before Liu Bang's death. Han Xin, Peng Yue and Ying Bu are all famous war generals, who won more than half of the countries for Liu Bang. After Liu Bang became emperor, he was made a baron. With a vast territory and a large population, he was the first king of China at that time.
When Liu Bang died, Lv Hou blocked the news and did not send out obituaries for four days. Instead, he appreciated his plot to kill people. Later, the story leaked and was discouraged. But this is enough to shock the ministers and make the peak sexually generals obediently obey Lv Hou's baton and get through the crisis smoothly.
Lv Hou not only planned to kill the minister, but also killed the descendants of Liu Bang. Liu Bang has eight sons, namely Liu Fei, Liu Ying (Emperor Hui of Han Dynasty or Emperor Xiao Hui), Liu Ruyi, Liu Heng (Emperor Wen of Han Dynasty or Emperor Xiao Wen), Liu Hui, Liu You, Liu Chang and Liu Jian, among whom only Liu Ying is Lv Hou's own. After Lv Hou came to power, he first poisoned Liu Ruyi, and then tried to repeat the mistakes of Liu Fei because of trivial matters, but Liu Fei saw through it and Liu Fei's design escaped. Later, Lv Hou designed Liu You to starve to death and forced Liu Hui to commit suicide. Liu Jian died of illness, leaving only one son, who was also killed by Lv Hou. Only Liu Heng and Changlu are not threatened by Lv Hou. In fact, even his own son Liu Ying was indirectly killed by Lv Hou. To sum up, four of Liu Bang's eight sons died directly or indirectly at the hands of Lv Hou, and one died at the hands of Lv Hou. Only Liu Fei, Liu Heng and Chang Lu were not injured.
Lv Hou spared no effort to persecute the descendants of Liu Bang. In addition to women's wayward behavior, one of its purposes is to seize their fiefs and enfeoffment her family, so as to strengthen the power of the mainland family. In fact, I almost won the Liu family. But as a result, in the next coup, Lu's family were all killed by ministers, and even his own son Liu Ying was wiped out.
Lv Hou's idea of plotting to punish generals is obviously the result of a slightly neurotic intuitive thinking, but it is not groundless. At the beginning of Liu Bang's reign, due to historical reasons, he appointed seven princes with different surnames and a large number of Marquis. Every prince has his own land and population, and his taxes are used to support the prince and can be inherited. Marquis's influence is not big, one or two counties at most, 20,000 to 30,000 households. Wang Jue has at least several counties and their populations, and has his own government and army. At most, Liu Bang's central government sent several officials to be the heads of the royal governments. Wang Jue's power was huge and difficult to restrain, which brought great potential threat to the stability of Han Dynasty. It may be because of this consideration that Liu Bangcai formed an alliance with the generals to kill the white horse, stipulating that "Liu will not seal the king, he will not seal the Hou." This is the famous White Horse Alliance in history.
