[lào ǎi] [lao m: i](？ -238 BC), Qin people at the end of the Warring States Period. Yes, it is Zheng (Qin Shihuang)' s mother.

Entrusted by Lv Buwei, the prime minister of Qin, he entered the palace disguised as a eunuch. He had an affair with Zhao Ji, the mother of Ying Zheng, the king of Qin, and was valued by the Queen Mother. He was named a long letter Hou, and had two illegitimate children with the Queen Mother, calling himself the "false father" of the King of Qin.

After the affair with Empress Dowager Cixi was exposed, Lao Ai pre-emptively rebelled by stealing the imperial seal of the King of Qin and the seal of Empress Dowager Cixi, and mobilized the county pawn and the palace guards to ride horses in the palace and attack the seven-year palace where the King of Qin lived. The king of Qin ordered the prime ministers Chang Pingjun and Chang Wenjun to launch Xianyang foot soldiers to attack Laoai and fight in Xianyang.

Lao Ai was defeated, and the three clans, Lao Ai and their party members were dismembered by five horses. Evonne and Lao Ai's two youngest sons were also put into sacks and fell to death.

In the ninth year of the King of Qin, someone wrote to report that Lao Ai was a false eunuch who often had an affair with the Queen Mother and gave birth to two sons, both of whom were hidden in the palace. Lao Ai also privately discussed with the Empress Dowager that if the King of Qin died, he and the son born to the Empress Dowager would inherit the throne.

Liu Xiang's "Talking about Zheng Yuan Jian" in the Western Han Dynasty said in more detail: On one occasion, Lao Ai played games and drank with court officials, and a group of people got drunk. As a result, Lao Ai quarreled with others, and they were angry. Lao Ai was furious, stared at each other and shouted at each other: I am the fake father of the King of Qin, who dares to fight me?

As a result, the officials who quarreled with Ai went back to report to Ying Zheng. Ying Zheng flew into a rage when he heard this.

Afterwards, Lao Ai was afraid that Ying Zheng, the king of Qin, would kill him, so he simply launched a rebellion first, and the two sides fought in Xianyang. When Lao Ai was defeated, Ying Zheng split Lao Ai, killed Lao Ai and the two sons born to the Queen Mother, and moved the Queen Mother to Luyang Palace for house arrest.

However, Shuo Yuan is a book compiled by the Western Han Dynasty, and its records can only be discussed.

Biography of Historical Records of Lv Buwei records that in the year of Qin Jiu, someone reported Laoai's long-term adultery with the Empress Dowager, just like agreeing to be Laoai's son after Ying Zheng's death. So, Ying Zheng ordered an investigation into the case of Laoyi, and soon found out the whole truth of the matter.

In September, Ying Zheng, king of Qin, killed the two sons born to the Empress Dowager and moved the Empress Dowager to the surveillance of Emperor Yong. All the servants of Lao Ai were confiscated and moved to Shu.

Historical Records of Qin Shihuang's Biography is more detailed and credible than Historical Records of Lv Buwei's Biography: In April of Qin Jiu, Ying Zheng, the 22-year-old king of Qin, arrived in Yongdi, held a coronation ceremony, wore a sword and officially announced his adulthood. According to the Qin law, after the coronation ceremony, the king of Qin can take back the power in the hands of the queen mother and the prime minister and fully exercise the kingship.

Long Xin Hou Laoai mobilized troops under the pretext of the imperial edict of the King of Qin and the imperial edict of the Empress Dowager, and prepared to attack Ying Zheng, the King of Qin who lived in Qi Dynasty Palace. After Ying Zheng got the news, he ordered Prime Minister Lv Buwei and others to assemble troops to attack Laoyi. The two sides fought in Xianyang City, killing hundreds of rebels.

All the counter-revolutionaries were knighted, even the eunuchs who fought in the war were knighted. After Lao Ai fled, Ying Zheng, the king of Qin, ordered: whoever captures Lao Ai alive will be rewarded with one million yuan; Whoever killed Ed, offered a reward of 500,000. After four questions, the people of Qin quickly mobilized, and Lao Ai and his key members were quickly arrested.

Ying Zheng, king of Qin, severely punished more than 20 rebels headed by Lao Ai, such as chopping cars, beheading and losing their families, and suppressed Lao Ai's rebellion.

In addition, the Queen Mother's two younger brothers, Evonne and Lao Ai, were put in bags and died (the two younger brothers were saved). The Queen Mother moved to Yung Wing and was placed under house arrest. All the servants of Lao Ai were confiscated and exiled to Shu.
