东平王后刘烨 / Liu Ye, Dongping Queen (Western Han)

Overview

东平王后刘烨 / Liu Ye, Dongping Queen enters the wiki through Hanji 584 as 东平王刘云’s queen, whose reported confession turns worship of the Hu Mountain standing stone into a treason case under 汉哀帝.

Current Profile

Hanji 584 presents Liu Ye inside the Dongping case rather than as an independently developed court figure. She accompanies Liu Yun in worshiping the anomalous stone and is later arrested during the investigation. The source says she admits that she and Liu Yun worshiped the stone to curse Aidi and hoped Liu Yun would replace him as emperor.

That confession is legally decisive in the episode’s narrative, but the page keeps it source-scoped. The transcript itself notes no independent corroborating evidence beyond the confession, and the pressure of arrest means the wiki should not convert the confession into settled proof of inner intent.

Qualifications

This page is bounded to Hanji 584. It does not settle Liu Ye’s lineage, full legal interrogation, actual beliefs, or whether the confession was coerced. The filename deliberately uses DongpingQueen to avoid collision with 刘晔, the later Lujiang-side adviser.
