Lady Cai

Who is Lady Cai?

Lady Cai was the second wife of the warlord Liu Biao, who was in charge of Jing Province during the late Han Dynasty period of Chinese history.

Lady Cai was the older sister of Cai Mao, a military general serving under Liu Biao. Liu Biao had two sons, Liu Qi and Liu Cong, both born to his first wife. As her niece married Liu Cong, Lady Cai favoured Liu Cong and she often praised Liu Cong and slandered Liu Qi in front of Liu Biao. After Liu Biao's death, she collaborated with Cai Mao to make Liu Cong the successor instead of Liu Qi.
