When Empress Lu killed Liu Bang s sons, why did he first crown them as the kings of Zhao?

The landlord said that the king of Zhao should be the son of Liu Bang's wife, Mrs. Qi, Ruyi, but when Ruyi was named King Zhao, it was 198 BC, at this time Gaozu Liu Bang was still alive - Liu Bang died in 195 BC, and the Ruyi King Zhao was actually sealed by Liu Bang, not Empress Lu.

When Gaozu was alive, because he favored Mrs. Qi, he wanted to abolish Liu Ying, the prince born to Empress Lu, many times, and set up King Ruyi of Zhao as the crown prince, but he finally failed. Empress Lu hated Mrs. Qi and King Zhao to the bone. After Gaozu died, Empress Lu chopped off Mrs. Qi's hands and feet as a "human bi".

Gaozu knew that Empress Lu was cruel, and before his death, he repeatedly entrusted King Zhao Ruyi to Zhou Chang, and Lu Pheasant recruited King Zhao three times, and Zhou Chang, who knew the details, refused three times. Lu Pheasant had no choice but to summon Zhou Chang first, and then King Zhao. Liu Ruyi didn't dare to refuse, and sure enough, he came to Chang'an.

Although Empress Lu is cruel, her son Liu Ying is kind-hearted, he loves his younger brother wholeheartedly, and is afraid that his mother will hurt Ruyi, so he eats and lives with Ruyi every day, making Empress Lu unable to start. However, in the end, one day, Empress Lu brutally killed Ruyi when Liu Ying was out hunting, leaving only Ruyi alone in the palace.

At that time, Liu Bang's sons already had fiefs, and Empress Lu deceived them to death on the grounds of changing fiefs, but the King of Qi and the Acting King were both adults, of course they couldn't be deceived, and the King of Huainan was raised by Empress Lu, quite half of his sons, and Liu Bang's remaining four sons were unlucky.

Because Empress Lu had to pick it up and then fall down hard, she cut the grass and eradicated the roots. What's the point of killing a grass folk if it's just a grass people?

She told people that I could kill anyone who wasn't him, and I could pick anyone up. After Liu Bang's death, she had the final say.

They are Liu Ruyi, Liu Youpiwan and Liu Hui. Liu Ruyi was poisoned by Empress Lu, and Liu Youwei regretted being locked up by Empress Lu and starved to death. And Liu Hui was depressed because he didn't like the queen that Empress Lu gave him, and finally committed suicide.

Liu Ruyi is Liu Bang's favorite son, and before Liu Bang died, he wanted to make this son the crown prince. Because of this, Empress Lu hated Liu Ruyi very much.

Liu Ruyi, Liu You, Liu Hui, these people were all divided into King Zhao, one was starved to death by Empress Lu, and the others did not end very well.

Those who were named King Zhao were Liu Ruyi, Liu You, and Liu Hui; Their endings were very tragic, Liu Ruyi was directly poisoned by Empress Lu, and Liu You, who lacked Xiangxiang, was locked up by Empress Lu, and starved to death, Liu Hui didn't like Empress Lu to send the key to his queen, and finally committed suicide.

Liu Bang felt guilty because of Zhao Ji's suicide, and handed over Liu Chang to Lu Hou to raise to complete self-redemption. Liu Bang was very angry because of Zhao Guo's assassination, and did not pay attention to Zhao Ji's request in prison. When Liu Bang learned that Zhao Ji committed suicide after giving birth to Liu Chang in prison, he regretted it very much, and was full of guilt for Zhao Ji, so he made up for the shortcomings of snubbing Zhao Ji by letting Empress Lu raise Liu Chang.

Because Xushan Liu Bang Hu Nuan understood that everything he had taken care of by Empress Lü, he hoped to be able to further support himself in the future, because Empress Lü represented the interests of many landlord classes, and once he offended them, he would lose everything about himself.

I think this is because Liu Bang wants to compensate his child, so he will be handed over to Lu Hou to raise.

Because Liu Bang understands that he has to rely on the wishes of Lu Hou to take care of himself, he will be able to enter the good family and support himself from now on, because Lu Hou represents many landlords, and once Li Zi offends himself, he will be disappointed.

Because Liu Bang died on the side, Empress Lu eradicated dissidents, and many powerful princes were also eliminated by Empress Lu, so no one dared to deal with the Lu family for a while。There is a very important reason why Liu Bang can get the world, that is, there are many generals around him, and with their support, Liu Bang, a person who has no great talent, can get a position. It is precisely because of this that after Liu Bang ascended the throne, many kings with different surnames were sealed, Han Xin, Yingbu, Peng Yue and others were all crowned princes at that time, but later several people failed to rebel and were executed.

After the start of the clan, Liu Bang also realized that too many kings with different surnames were not a good thing for him, and it was not conducive to stabilizing the country, so before he died, he replaced all these kings with different surnames with Liu clan relatives. Liu Bang sealed more than a dozen kings, but no one dared to touch the Lu family after his death, and after the death of Empress Lu, the Lu family declined.

Liu Bang has many princes, but these Liu clan relatives are either old or weak, and they are not opponents of Empress Lu at all. Although some people had the intention to deal with Empress Lu, they were quickly eradicated by Empress Lu, and in the end, everyone knew that Empress Lu was ruthless, and no one dared to touch the Lu family when she was there.

After Liu Bang's death, Lu Pheasant's son Liu Ying succeeded to the throne, and after the new emperor succeeded to the throne, those princes did not dare to move, because Lu Hou and Liu Ying were mother and son, and at this time, the Lu family was the enemy of Liu Ying, so when Lu Hou was here, no one would move the Lu family, and it had a lot to do with Lu Hou, and it also had a lot to do with Liu Ying.

After Liu Bang's death, Empress Lu took power, and then she named her sons and nephews as kings, in order not to fall into the charge of helping the Lu family, she also crowned Liu Ying's sons as kings, so that most of the princes of Zhaoxiang Liu Bang were replaced by the people of the Lu family. Among the rest of the people, although they have the heart to resist, they are not Lu Hou's opponents.

Because these princes have no military power, all the military power is in the hands of Empress Lu. So Empress Lu is a big trouble.

It was because they were very afraid of Lu Pheasant's power, after all, Lu Pheasant was in power at that time, and they could be killed with a casual word.
