Liu E's first shop was in Taiyuan, and later he moved to Yizhou. As a Huayang native, he was born in a very good family and was raised by his grandfather. Liu E's grandfather, Liu Yanqing, was Xiao Wei, the right general in the Jin and Han Dynasties after the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms. His father, Liu Zongtong, served as the commander-in-chief of Hu Jie after Zhao Kuangyin established the Song Dynasty and led the secretariat. It was because of his father's work that Liu E's family moved to Huayang.
Originally speaking, Liu E's family environment is still good. His father is an official, his grandfather is an official, and generations of his family have been eating farmland. This tutor is naturally not much different. Unfortunately, just after Liu E was born, Liu E's father, Liu Tong, received a mission from the imperial court and was ordered to go to war. This expedition followed NianLia as a farewell, and Liu Tong died in battle.
Coincidentally, at this time, Liu Tong had no son in the family, so the Liu family without a father was still becoming depressed and poor. Finally, he can only live in the home of his elders. Although the Liu family is poor, the children living in such a family, no matter how poor the family is, will not be poor in family education.
However, it is precisely because of the decline of family fortune that Liu E began to work hard for a living, that is, rattle, after she was a little older. But this is not the lowest point in the life of a legendary queen. According to Sima Guang's Su Shui Ji, Liu E once worked in the factory next door to Gongmei? A prostitute? In layman's terms, it is a prostitute. In fact, it is very common for women to engage in geisha or prostitutes after many royal families were lonely in history. In fact, the atmosphere of the Song Dynasty was quite open at that time. Judging from the situation at that time, Liu E was in a very difficult situation.
The sky was going to do great things for the Sri Lankan people, so Liu E's trough didn't last long, and then Liu E was married by the palace sister next door. Gong Mei redeemed Liu E and saved Liu E from the mire. This Gong Mei is only a silversmith in the history books, but judging from the situation that Gong Mei thought Liu E was redeemed at that time, he is more likely to be a jeweler of a silversmith. Although Gong Meijia is either rich or expensive, she is not a noble executive, but she must be a businessman with small assets, otherwise she may not have the funds to redeem Liu E.
But why, according to historical records, is Gong the poorest? Because in the old feudal society, the palace sisters who were born as businessmen were considered inferior. Rich as she is, she has no position in society. In ancient times, she was very particular about her identity and lineage. Apart from the emperor and the royal family, aristocratic families have always been the highest in society, followed by court officials and scholarly families. Rich as he is, this businessman is really the most humble person.
After Liu E was redeemed by Gong Mei, she turned to Gong Jia and became Gong Mei's concubine. Yes, just a concubine, not a wife. But at least she is well dressed and well maintained, so Liu E's beauty is still very touching. Later, Gong Mei took Liu E to Bianzhou to do business. But Gong Mei at this time is also unlucky. How bad is it? It's time for Liu E to show her face again.
