What happened in the first chapter of the Book of Esther?
Chapter 1 of the Book of Esther begins by telling us that in the third year of the reign of King Ahasuerus of Persia, he held a feast in his palace. His wife, Queen Vashti made a feast for the women in the royal house. On the seventh day of the feast, the king commanded that Vashti be brought before him to show to the people, but she refused to come. Troubled, Ahasuerus asked his wise men what he should do. They said that unless he divorced Vashti, all the women in the empire would begin to disobey their husbands. The name Ahasuerus is universally believed to be the Hebrew name for King Xerxes, who ruled Persia from 486 to 465 BCE. However, Xerxes' wife at the time was not Vashti, but Amestris. Amestris remained queen well beyond the third year of Xerxes' reign, so there can have been no Queen Vashti nor, it seems, a Queen Esther.
What personal possession did King Ahasuerus give to Mordecai?

What did esther from the bible do to make her remembered respected and admired?
In the Book of Esther, Queen Esther opposed the wicked Haman and ensured the defeat of his plot to annihilate all the Jews in Persia. Jews in the Persian court are portrayed as having the highest moral virtues, courage, honour and loyalty to the king. The Book of Esther was a second-century-BCE novel, but also an excellent work of propaganda written at a time when the Jews of Judah needed a morale boost. This was the real achievement of Queen Esther.
Is Esther in the ancestry of Jesus?
No, she is not from the same lineage as Jesus. According to Rabbinic literature Esther was an orphan, her father died before her birth and her mother died when Esther was born. She was raised in her cousin Mordiecai's house. There is a building known as the tomb of 'Esther and Mordechai' in Hamadan Iran so maybe Esther did exist.
