Detailed explanation-1: -Gaohou, Wade-Giles romanization Kao-hou, also called Lühou, or Lüshi, personal name (xingming) Lü Zhi, or Lü Exu, (died 180 bc, China), the first woman ruler of China, wife of Gaozu, the first emperor (reigned 206–195 bc) of the Han dynasty (206 bc–ad 220).
Detailed explanation-2: -Her actual reign lasted from 690-705 CE, but she effectively ruled the country from 660 CE onward. Wu was the only woman to rule China in her own right.
