Chapter 60 Annihilation of the whole family

This impeachment fell right into the arms of Emperor Liu Xin.He can't really "punish according to the law", if he really "punishes according to the law", Wang Gen Wang's situation will be over, but his purpose is only to eliminate the power of the Wang family, so he sent Mr. Wang Gen back to his fief Quyang ( Fengtai County, Anhui Province), and Mr. Wang Kuang was more severe, revoked his Marquis, and demoted him to a commoner. The family surnamed Wang declined, the family surnamed Fu rose, and the family surnamed Ding followed suit.Mrs. Fu has three cousins. In addition to Mrs. Fu Yan, the father of Queen Fu Xiaoai, who was granted the title of Marquis of Kongxiang, Mr. Fu Xi was given the title of Marquis of Gaowu, and Mr. Fu Shang was later given the title of Marquis of Ruchang.Later, Mrs. Fu's mother remarried a man surnamed Zheng and gave birth to a son, Mr. Zheng Hui. Although she was dead, she was also granted the title of Marquis of Xinyang, and his son, Mr. Zheng Ye, inherited the title.The father of Mrs. Fu was granted the title of Marquis Chongzu, and the father of Ms. Ding Ji was named Marquis Baode.Ms. Ding Ji's eldest brother, Mr. Ding Zhong, is dead. Mr. Ding Zhong's son, Mr. Ding Man, is granted the title of Marquis of Zhou;This group of emerging marquises and their new official positions after joining the government made the power of Fu Ding's family suddenly flourishing and hot.

All of the above happened in 7 BC, that is, the year when Mr. Liu Ao died and Mr. Liu Xin came to power.In the second year (the first six), old lady Fu took revenge on her rival in love twenty years ago, Ms. Feng Yuan, resulting in a bloody and unjust prison.Power and wealth made the tail wagging system quickly established. Mr. Duan You, the senior palace guard (Huang Menlang), and Mr. Leng Bao, the commander of the palace gate (Lang Zhongling), brought up the old case again and sent a memorial to Mr. Liu Xin, thinking that the old lady Fu The title of Ms. He Ding prostitute should be corrected.Mr. Liu Xin handed over this proposal to relevant senior government officials to study the possibility of its implementation.

Anyone can see that this is just a means of responsibility sharing, and the expression is not my Majesty's willful action, but everyone's unanimous voice.As a result of everyone's research, everyone agrees, not only agrees, but also unanimously emphasizes that this proposal is reasonable, and it is a pity that it was put forward too late.Only the second prime minister (Dai Sikong) Mr. Shi Dan, the prime minister Mr. Kong Guang, and the new commander-in-chief of the national armed forces (Dai Sima) Mr. Fu Xi protested.What is the reason? It has been stated before. Anyway, it is based on the tricks of the patriarchal system of "big clan" and "small clan".

This of course made old lady Fu furious. Her Excellency was the most authoritative woman in China at that time, but she couldn't even get a title, which was a great shame.It is very simple to deal with these three people. Mr. Liu Xin ordered Mr. Shi Dan to be dismissed, and even the Marquis was deprived and demoted to a commoner.Soon, Mr. Kong Guang was removed from his post, and even the Marquis was deprived of it and demoted to a commoner.Mr. Fu Xi finally belonged to the class of Fu's family. He was only dismissed from his post, but still retained his title, and was sent back to his fief Gaowu (Nanyang County, Henan Province).

This resoundingly victorious struggle has clearly demonstrated that Fujiaban is unstoppable.The new prime minister, Mr. Zhu Bo, is of course the tail of the Fu family class. He continued to insist that the old lady Fu should be renamed as the "Empress Dowager of Dingtao" and live in Yongxin Palace; , Renamed "Empress Dowager" and lived in Zhong'an Palace.But Ms. Wang Zhengjun's "Empress Dowager" and Ms. Zhao Feiyan's "Empress Dowager" are still the same.Therefore, in the 1990s BC, the Western Han Dynasty had a total of four "Queen Dowagers". too servant).Anyway, the tax money of the small people is used.nice.

Old lady Fu and Ms. Ding Ji fought for the title in March of 5 BC, and in June, Ms. Ding Ji died.Mr. Liu Xin even ordered the abolition of the "Emperor's Wife Empress" and renamed the old lady Fu as "Emperor's Wife Empress"-as if "Emperor" is a bit higher than "Emperor", and Fu Zai's wife is more ambitious.Unexpectedly, three years later, in 2 BC, her lordship also died.Woohoo, death is a sad thing, and no one wants to die forever, especially if they are enjoying top power.However, from the perspective of future development, fortunately, her Excellency and Ms. Ding Ji died successively.Gai's late death is not necessarily happiness, and longevity beyond a certain level is not necessarily happiness, and may even be a disaster.The most important thing is that people have to die coincidentally, and old lady Fu and Ms. Ding Ji belong to this category.

The year after old lady Fu had her braids up (the year before BC), Liu Xin also had her braids up.After being emperor for seven years, he was only twenty-six years old when he died.Mr. Liu Jizi, the grandson of Ms. Feng Yuan who was falsely murdered, succeeded the emperor.Mr. Liu Jizi was only nine years old at that time, and he was still a baby. In an instant, the power of the government returned to the hands of the Empress Dowager, Ms. Wang Zhengjun. Ms. Wang Zhengjun recalled her precious nephew Mr. Wang Mang to the central government and appointed him as the national armed forces The commander-in-chief of the army (Da Sima) and the confidential secretary-general of the palace (Lingshang Shushi).

This is the structure of a great revenge, the tempest is swift and furious.Ms. Zhao Feiyan had to commit suicide after being demoted to civilian status.And Ms. Bo Xiaoai, this weak and kind.The queen, who never interferes in politics, bears the brunt even more.At the insistence of Mr. Wang Mang, the Empress Dowager Ms. Wang Zhengjun ordered, saying: "The Queen Mother of Dingtao (Old Lady Fu) and Fu Yan, the Marquis of Kongxiang, conspired together, forgot their kindness, indulged in misconduct, and practiced injustice. This order Empress Xiao mourned and retreated to Gui Palace." Gui Palace was the place where court prisoners were imprisoned.Then, the second order came again, and Ms. Fu Xiaoai was demoted as a commoner. Ms. Fu Xiaoai had to commit suicide. She was only about twenty-five years old. Among the queens, there was another beautiful corpse who died suddenly.She was not involved in any political struggle, but she died in a political struggle.

Ms. Fei Qiyan knew why she died, but Ms. Bo Xiaoai was not guilty of any crime.Her only crime is that she is the daughter of the Fu family. ——Mr. Wang Mang hated the old lady Fu to the bone, so he excavated her tomb next. The reason was that she and Ms. Ding Ji were both "concubines of foreign vassals" and should not be buried in Chang'an, the capital, but in their feudal state Tao (Dingtao County, Shandong Province).When the tomb of old lady Fu was excavated, it suddenly collapsed, killing hundreds of people, and the stench spread for several miles after the coffin was opened.When excavating Ms. Ding Ji's tomb, the coffin suddenly caught fire, and Mr. Wang Mang declared that it was a fire sent by God.We dare not imagine what cruel scenes would happen if the old lady Fu didn't die a year ago.Hey, resentment is deep in people.
