Biography[]

The details of Lady Liu's early life are unknown, yet she ended up marrying Yuan Shao somewhere around the early 180s. She is the mother of Yuan Shang and later adopted Yuan Xi. However, she was largely uncaring towards Yuan Tan. When Yuan Shao died in 202, Lady Liu became the head of the Yuan family.

She is described as a jealous and vicious woman, and she used her newfound power to have Yuan Shao's concubines assassinated. Ultimately, when Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang fought each other over control, she was powerless to stop them. When Cao Cao conquered the territories of both sons in 205, she was captured by the armies of Wei. However, Cao Cao spared her life and gave her a remarkable pension. She lived out the rest of her life in peace, yet it is unknown when she died.
