How did a washerwoman become the queen mother more than 1000 years ago?

203 years ago, a plain washerwoman said shyly to Liu Bang, "Your Majesty, last night I dreamed that a black dragon was lying on my stomach. What do you mean? " Liu Bang was overjoyed: "Come on, let me realize your dream."

This washerwoman is Ji Bo, the future thin queen mother.

Ji Bo's mother was originally a princess of noble birth. She was born because of an encounter inside and outside marriage. As an illegitimate daughter, she has been discriminated against since she was a child and can't hold her head in front of others.

When she grew up, she was handsome and lovely, accepted by Wei and married back home.

Once, a fortune teller went to the Wei family and saw it. He quickly knelt down and said, "great, madam, the son you will have in the future is arranged by heaven!" "

Wei was overjoyed. Doesn't this mean that my son is the emperor?

So, he was desperate to favor Ji Bo, but Ji Bo's stomach didn't meet expectations and nothing happened.

Wei Yuan was a subordinate of Xiang Yu. He surrendered to Liu Bang in the Battle of Pengcheng, and later betrayed Liu Bang on the grounds that Liu Bang was not good to him. Finally, he will be brutally beheaded by Liu Bangbu next week.

After Wei's death, his wife was sent to Liu Banggong's house as a washerwoman.

When Ji Bo was in the laundry room, he became good friends with Guan Furen and Zhao Zier. The three agreed that if someone is rich, they won't forget other sisters.

Guan Furen and Zhao Zier are more favored by Liu Bang than Ji Bo. They were rich, but they completely forgot about Ji Bo.

On one occasion, Guan Furen and Zhao Zier accompanied Liu Bang to drink. Guan Furen drank too much, but he remembered the agreement with Ji Bo. He couldn't help joking with Zhao Zier about Ji Bo and laughing at her as a washerwoman.

Liu Bang was moved by compassion and went to the laundry room to find Ji Bo.

Liu Bang wants to spoil, but he works in the laundry room day and night, and his face is haggard, which can't be compared with the beautiful Mrs. Qi.

Liu bang is really not interested in Ji Bo and is ready to leave.

When Gibb saw that Liu Bang was ready to leave, he grabbed his sleeve and said shyly, "Your Majesty, last night I dreamed that a black dragon was placed on my stomach. What do you mean? "

Liu bang suddenly became interested. Isn't that me? It seems that this is an act of god, to be with Ji Bo on a spring night.

So, I fell in love with Ji Bo that night.

Just after that night, Gibb became pregnant with Liu Bang's child, and Liu Bang never touched Ji Bo again.

Ji Bo gave birth to Liu Heng after ten months of pregnancy, but Ji Bo gave birth to Liu Heng, which didn't change her fate.

She lives in the palace with Liu Heng carefully and is polite to everyone. Liu Heng Jr. clashed with other princes. Even if Liu Heng is right, Ji Bo will take him to apologize to other concubines.

When Liu Hengchang was 8 years old, he was appointed acting king and sent to Jinyang, a remote and poor fief.

After Liu Bang's death, Lu became the empress dowager and began to win over Liu Bang's favorite concubines.

Especially Mrs Qi is the worst. Her son was poisoned, and she was taken hostage and died in humiliation.

Ji Bo is the only one who was sent to Jinyang by Lv Hou to live with his son Liu Heng.

After Lv Hou's death, ministers made Liu Heng emperor in order to weaken the Lushi family. This is the famous emperor of China in history, and Ji Bo became the empress dowager.

After Liu Heng ascended the throne, he observed people's feelings and abolished many unreasonable systems. Under his leadership, the people of the Han Dynasty lived and worked in peace and contentment, which laid a solid foundation for the inheritance of the Han Dynasty for 400 years. He also became an emperor through the ages, which is inseparable from his mother Ji Bo's childhood education.

Ji Bo keeps a low profile, but she has extraordinary wisdom. She knows what she wants and what she should not think. Compared with Mrs. Qi and other concubines of Liu Bang, she is the real winner of life in exchange for the peace and wealth of herself and her son.
