Historical Discussions

TVB used to have a TV series "The Heroes of Chu and Han", in which Zhang Keyi played Empress Lu, and she did a very good job, explaining Empress Lu's transformation and growth step by step.

Why! Novels are all fantasy, and bitterness was the true tone of women in the past.

I always thought that Fu Jian and Wang Meng were monarchs and ministers hahaha

So I don't like the claims that in ancient times, legitimate sons were more noble and concubines were slaves. . . Treating your brothers and sisters as slaves is something you can brag about.

Silver in the Song Dynasty was not a currency in circulation. The comparative relationship between silver and money in the early Northern Song Dynasty, the late Northern Song Dynasty and the Southern Song Dynasty was also constantly changing.

In fact, the people who despised the sons of concubines the most in history were their biological fathers. Wang Rong among the Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest looked down upon his own concubines and would rather adopt a child of the same clan as his heir. But this kind of contempt is limited to the biological father.

The women of the pre-Qin and Han Dynasties were very strong. They were a husband and wife team from the beginning of the Han Dynasty. Empress Lu had a very special nickname of "Queen of Han Dynasty", which is enough to show her weight.

Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty is really miserable. I have also seen that the prototype is Emperor Xuan x Empress Dowager Qiongcheng. Empress Xu and Empress Huo are as black as the bottom of the pot. Empress Dowager Qiongcheng is written as a true love. Emperor Xuan is like a scum who quickly forgets his bad wife and attacks his friend's daughter...

There is a saying, political methods and whether he is a scumbag are two different things.

Damn, I want to know where the author came from to know so many different histories.
