Who are the women in Historical Records? ：

A magnificent historical record, emperors and generals, heroes, a hundred schools of thought contend, a scholar and a ranger counselor, is spectacular. However, the writing about women only focuses on the biographies of Lv Hou and his consorts. Although Tai Shigong paid little attention to women, his affirmation and sympathy for women still appeared in his works.

Queen Lu

There are 12 articles in this chronicle. As a woman, Lv Hou ranks ninth, behind the Five Emperors, Qin Shihuang, Xiang Yu and Liu Bang, which is surprising. Lv Hou is a well-known poisonous woman. She was so jealous that she killed the son of Mrs. Qi, whom Liu Bang loved deeply. She cut off Mrs. Qi's hands and feet, gouged out her eyes, cut off her ears and threw them into the toilet for her son to visit. Hui Di, a weak and kind-hearted dutiful son, cried with fear, so she was easily ill regardless of the failure of state affairs. She was vicious, the birds were barren, the rabbit died and the dog cooked, and Han Xin and Peng Yue were killed. She is heartless. Her own son died, but she cried without tears. She is overbearing, which makes Lu a Hou, and her consorts monopolize power and control state affairs.

How does Sima Qian evaluate this woman who is incompatible with traditional ethics? He not only exposed her jealousy, cruelty, ruthlessness and bullying, but also affirmed her fortitude and determination. He commented on her achievements like this: "It is rare for the Lebanese people to leave the suffering of the Warring States. The sinner is hope, and the people are well-fed and cultivated. "

In fact, Lv Hou is an ordinary woman. She and her husband Liu Bang fight together in this world. She was once held hostage by Xiang Yu and saw her father-in-law almost cooked by Xiang Yu. Her rogue husband even said at the critical moment when her father was dying: "Cook it, don't forget to share it with me!" " She is used to winning, losing, life and death, and her heart gradually hardens in the shadow of swords and swords. Liu Bang's passion for wishful thinking shook Lv Hou's son Liu Ying's status as a prince. If Ruyi is not ruled out, the position of the prince will be in danger, and she has to get rid of Ruyi and his mother, Mrs. Qi. Han Xin, Peng Yue and other princes with different surnames relied on merits and were arrogant. They helped Gao Zhen and harmed the Han family. She also decisively punished them. When her son died, she was afraid that the old minister would seize power. How could she cry? Without the enfeoffment system, how could she consolidate her rule?

Lv Hou's eight-year dictatorship was cruel, but she also made achievements. The world is at peace and the Lebanese people live a peaceful life. I can't help but admire this capable woman. However, as a woman, she lost the most basic tenderness and love, and even in a high position, she only got cold power. When people are in the dead of night, how do you know that nightmares will not attack each other?

Thin queen mother

Empress Bo, the opening character of Historical Records, is a legendary woman. She was the wife of Wei Bao, the son of Wei. The fortune teller said that she was expensive, her son was Tian Zi, and Wei Bao was in heaven. This fortune-telling is really accurate. Her son really became emperor, but not with Wei Baosheng, but with Liu Sheng. Wei Baochun knows everything and says everything. After Wei Bao was killed by Liu Bang, Bo was brought into the harem by Liu Bang for his beauty. There were many beauties in the harem, and Liu Bang forgot Bo in an instant. The beautiful women are all idle, but Bo has a good time with two of them and Zhao Zier, and the appointment comes first. Who knows that Guan and Zhao were first favored, but privately they laughed at Bo. Liu Bang sympathized with her for a while and remembered her. Bo's life is good. "What a lucky man!" He gave birth to a son, Liu Heng, and was named acting king. Mrs. Bo and her son are low-key, and even Liu Bang's face is rarely seen. Under the shadow of swords in the harem, they actually escaped the power of Lv Hou. The descendants of the king were made emperor of China. Mrs. Bo, who worked hard all her life, eventually became a thin queen mother because of her expensive mother. Empress Bo taught her children well, and Emperor Wen became famous all over the world in the name of benevolence and filial piety, and never slacked off in serving her mother. His mother was ill for three years, and he often disappeared and took off his clothes. Let mom bring the soup, and he won't worry until he tastes it himself. During his 24 years in office, he emphasized the rule of virtue, advocated etiquette, and attached importance to the development of agriculture, which made the Western Han society stable, the population prosperous, the economy resumed development, and created the rule of cultural scenes in history.

The emaciated queen mother endured all her life and finally made a positive result. How much wisdom and courage a weak woman needs to settle down to protect her children in troubled times and court disputes! In the long night, when I heard blood shed outside the window, what could she do but grit her teeth and wait? How many people didn't make it to the end, but she did.

Gouyi lady

Beauty has a thin life, which is too appropriate to describe Mrs. Gou Jian. She was brought into the harem by the elderly Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. It looks beautiful, but both hands are clenched, and Liang Wudi found dozens of people to break it, but it couldn't be broken. When Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty came to see it in person, he immediately spread out his hands and suddenly got a jade hook in his palm. Emperor Wu felt strange in his heart, so he was lucky and named him Mrs. Boxer. After pregnant with Jieyu, the palace where she lived was named Gou Jian, so it was also named Mrs Gou Jian. Emperor Wu loved him very much. In the third year, he gave birth to a son named Fu Ling. At this time, Emperor Wu was seventy years old. Mrs. Gou was pregnant and didn't give birth to the baby until April. Emperor Wu said: "According to legend, the ancient emperor Tang Yao was born in April, and so is Gou Jian today." He named the palace gate where he was born Yaomu Gate. Hook was so clever that he won the favor of Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty, so he abolished his post and made Fuling a prince.

However, Mrs. Gou Jian is not like Mrs. Bo, and his mother depends on the fate of her children. Afraid of having fewer children and a strong mother, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty repeated Lv Hou's autocratic mistake and sentenced Mrs. Gou Jian to death. The poor generation of beautiful women get rid of sin and beg for mercy, but they can't impress Emperor Wudi's heart of stone! "My wife died in Yunyang Palace, dusty, and the people are sad." Sima Qian sighed.

What do you mean a companion is like a tiger? The tragic fate of empresses is a portrayal. What about the national color of Tian Zi and the task of carrying on the family line? Once the supreme imperial power was touched, the emperor immediately turned his face and denied people, and it was a piece of cake to kill people. In the emperor's view, only the throne is priceless, beauty, advance wave after wave, and then kill it quickly.

If Mrs Gou Jian can choose again, I think she would rather be an ordinary woman, marry an ordinary person, have children and live a carefree life. Instead of falling into the court's snare, the legend of the whole body can't end well, and the prosperity is scattered, leaving people sighing.

thenar eminence

There are only a few lines about Yu Ji in Historical Records, and it is a brief introduction to the characters. Finally, no one knows how Yu Ji ended. But the story of Farewell My Concubine is so thrilling that it has been passed down through the ages.

Xiang Yu, the overlord of Chu, was defeated and besieged on all sides. The hero died. Facing the concubine who accompanied him all the way, his favorite woman, she sang an everlasting lament:

"I'm pulling the mountain, I'm angry,

Bad times never die.

I can't help it if I don't die,

I'm afraid I'm afraid I can't do anything! "

"Historical Records of Xiang Yu" said: "There are few songs, beauty and harmony, and Xiang Wang cries a few lines, and both sides cry, so don't look up." According to legend, Yu Ji's duet is as follows:

"Han soldiers plundered the land,

The sound of Chu songs came from all directions.

Your majesty's spirit is exhausted,

How do concubines make a living? "

It can be seen that Yu Ji's death intention has been decided. Thinking of the storm at night, heartbroken people, Yu Ji pulled out the overlord sword, three feet green front, a mouthful of green blood, which made a woman's fortitude and determination. I would rather die than surrender, and Yu Ji did not hesitate. At the end of her life, she was happy because she died with love and no regrets. Overlord has the courage of the world and the softness of cherishing flowers. Ask the world, who can turn the overlord into a soft finger? Yu Ji did it, she got it, so she paid, even her life!

In A Dream of Red Mansions, Lin Daiyu's poem "Yu Ji" entitled "Five Beautiful Songs" said: "I am heartbroken, and it is dark in Feng Xiao, and I am sad and hate my eyes. Peng Gan is old and drinks a sword like a Chu account. " The heavy pupil is Xiang Yu. According to legend, Xiang Yu has two pupils in his eyes, which are called double pupils. Peng, namely He, turned his back on Xiang Yu and went to Liu Bang to fight for his country. After their success, they were chopped into a paste by Lv Hou, thus ending the fickle people. Therefore, it is better to achieve fame by yourself than to drink the sword like concubine Yu. Later generations compared Mrs. Qi with others, and the poem said: "Liu Xiangjia is absolutely pitiful, and the hero has no choice but to protect Chan Juan." Do you know that the cemetery in Miracle is not as good as that in Yuji? "Similarly, a hero cannot let a beauty, Mrs Qi's fate is even worse, and her reputation is not as good as that of a concubine. I think concubine Yu should not care about her name before and after her death. She just followed her inner wishes. Why should a woman die for a bosom friend when a scholar dies?
