The queen was poisoned by the minister, and the emperor, the daughter of Hitachi, the minister, endured humiliation and killed the whole family for five years.

In the eyes of most people, the emperor, as the king of a country, has power that others can't even think about. However, as we all know, even when he was in the Ninth Five-Year Plan, the emperor had his own helplessness. When the imperial power is not stable enough or other powers are too great, the emperor has to act according to other people's glances. This was the case in Liu Xun in the Han Dynasty. Unfortunately, his beloved queen was poisoned by the minister. In order to get revenge, he could only temporarily make the minister's daughter queen, so he endured humiliation for five years and finally killed the minister's family.

Liu Xun, originally a direct descendant of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, was born a favored son. But no one expected that just a few months after his birth, his grandfather, then Zhi, was jailed for being framed for rebellion. Even when he was young, he was implicated and sent to the court.

Fortunately, Bingji, the official in charge of tracing the rebellion, knew that the prince was innocent and felt sorry for his suffering at a young age, so he secretly found a clean place to feed the female prisoners in the prison. Later, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was seriously ill and ordered all the prisoners in the prison to be killed, and Bingji stood up to protect him. Many years later, the emperor finally pardoned people all over the world. When Liu Xun had the chance, he left Ye Ting to live among the people.

Among these people, Liu Xun's name is Liu Bingyi. He traveled to Chang 'an, knowing that people's lives were not easy, and the customs and habits of officials laid the foundation for his future administration. More importantly, he also met the love of his life-Xu Pingjun.

The relationship between the two seems doomed. In fact, before they met, Xu Shi had an engagement with others, but on the eve of marriage, Xu Shi's fiance suddenly fell ill and died. Later, Xu Shi's mother asked someone to tell her fortune. The fortune teller replied that Xu Shi must be a rich man in the future. Later, the two married smoothly and lived a normal and happy life. Although Liu Bingyi had not recovered his royal status at that time, Xu Shi remained with him wholeheartedly, and they also gave birth to a son.

In June 74 BC, Zhao Han died suddenly. Under the arrangement of Huo Guang, Liu He became the new emperor. However, Liu He was an extremely absurd emperor. He did not do a good thing after he became king, so only 27 days later, ministers headed by Huo Guang ousted Liu He from the throne.

Three months later, Liu Bingyi, which has been silent among the people for a long time, ushered in a turning point in life. The emperor's position could not be inherited, so Huo Guang put him on the throne, known as Emperor Xuan Di in history.

At this time, he finally became an emperor and could have countless beautiful women. However, in his heart, there is still only his wife Xu Pingjun, and he just wants her to be the queen. But Huo Guang, the minister who helped him ascend to the throne, wanted his daughter to be a queen. The emperor knew that his power was unstable, but Huo Guang had the power to abolish the emperor, but he was still unwilling to compromise. In his mind, Wan Li can't compare with his wife. However, the emperor can't directly and Huo Guang war, otherwise it is likely to be deposed like Liu He.

After careful consideration, the emperor ordered the world to find him an old sword that he lived in the folk. So the sword means to meet an old friend. The emperor hid his true thoughts in his will, but there are many smart people in the world. Many people understand the emperor's mind, and even the ministers of the imperial court were moved by the emperor's mind. Such an emotional emperor is bound to be considerate of his ministers and people, so more and more people support the emperor to make Xu Shi queen. This is the origin of the allusion "the sword is affectionate".

Faced with the support of officials and people all over the world, Huo Guang could not continue to go against the emperor's wishes, so the emperor finally made his wife the queen. However, their lives did not last long.

In 7 1 BC, Queen Xu was pregnant again, but when she was about to give birth, she fell ill and called a female doctor to see a doctor. Huo Guang took this opportunity to find someone to secretly poison Xu Chu, so Xu Chu died of poisoning at the age of 19. After Xu's death, the emperor was heartbroken. He knows why his lover died, but his power is not stable at this time, and the emperor can only pretend not to know.

Subsequently, the emperor ordered Huo Guang's daughter Huo Chengjun to be taken to the palace and made a queen. On the surface, the emperor listened to Huo Guang's advice, but in fact, he had already expanded his power behind his back, taking away the power of his family step by step. 68 years ago, Huo Guang died, and the emperor's power became more stable. However, the power of the Huo family is still very large, and the emperor can only continue to bear it.

Just five years after Xu Shi's murder, the Huo family's power has decayed. The emperor knew his chance had come. He attacked at one stroke, ordered all the descendants of Huo family to be killed, and then deposed Queen Huo. Queen Huo saw the whole family killed with her own eyes, and soon she also committed suicide. Today, many people are still deeply impressed by Liu Bingyi's affection. In order to avenge their wives, they can endure five years of humiliation. But looking at this power struggle, the most pitiful thing is that two queens, one was poisoned and the other was forced to commit suicide, which is really sad.
