Qianlong's life is sentimental, which we have seen in countless film and television dramas, of course, the historical facts are indeed the case, not to mention the countless concubines in his harem, just to say that he went down to Jiangnan six times, every time he could attract bees and butterflies, and he owed a debt of affection, you can see that this is really a lord who is not very stingy with his feelings. However, among the many women, Qianlong was particularly attracted to, except for Empress Fucha, who was known as Concubine Ling.
But the treatment suffered by such a favored concubine after her death is a bit regrettable, although it is also a high-standard royal tomb, and the way her body is handled is really a bit chilling.
Many people's understanding of LingFei began with "Huan Zhu Gege", the woman who was gentle and kind, did not argue or grab, but could win Qianlong's happiness everywhere, and left a very deep impression on everyone. But in fact, the reason why Concubine Ling was so favored by Qianlong was speculated by some people was because she looked like Qianlong's favorite Empress Fucha, so she would have this honor.
Concubine Ling was originally only the daughter of the chief of internal affairs in the palace, and later entered the palace only as a palace maid, but I don't know how Qianlong took a fancy to her, and once she was lucky, she was crowned a nobleman, and after that, in just a few years, she was promoted several levels in a row, until she finally became an imperial concubine, which was simply a manifestation of life.
And Concubine Ling should be the only concubine who takes qianlong with her every time she goes down to Jiangnan, perhaps related to her indisputable personality, but more importantly, it must also be because qianlong loves her. Otherwise, who would carry a dangling light bulb next to them when picking flowers and weeds?
Another manifestation of Concubine Ling's favor was that she had given birth to six children for the emperor in just ten years, and even if she was born for one year, it should be at least twelve years. As a result, our Qianlong Emperor was really fond of Concubine Ling, and she had six children in ten years, and she became pregnant again after almost half a year of giving birth to a child, which was something that ordinary concubines did not dare to think about. But Concubine Ling did.
Another reason why everyone most realized that Concubine Ling was favored was that Qianlong finally chose Concubine Ling's son as the crown prince, and let this prince succeed in becoming emperor. You must know that Qianlong has dozens of sons, and he can choose this relatively small, fifteenth-ranked child, in addition to his original wisdom, naturally it is also because of his love for Concubine Ling.
All of the above is only the goodness of Qianlong to Concubine Ling that everyone can see on the surface, but in fact, he also did one thing after Concubine Ling's death, which can not only see his reluctance and feelings for Concubine Ling, but also make people feel that the love of the royal family is really a little scary.
When Sun Dianying stole the imperial tomb, he wantonly destroyed the Yuling Tomb where Concubine Ling was located, and then Puyi sent people to carry out rescue excavation and protection. Unlike Cixi, who was not decayed because of the night pearl in her mouth, the concubine who had been posthumously awarded the title of Empress Xiaoyi Chun at that time also lay in the coffin with intact skin, without a trace of decay, not even her teeth fell out, and she still had a smile on her face.
You must know that Concubine Ling at that time had been dead for nearly two hundred years, only a few years old compared to Cixi last year, and she did not have the Night Pearl in her mouth, what was going on? After many years, everyone found that the original Ling Concubine's body was filled with arsenic, and arsenic cream actually had an antiseptic effect to a certain extent. If Concubine Ling was not poisoned, then the only thing that could be explained was that shortly after her death, Qianlong immediately had her stomach full of arsenic in order to make her look incorruptible.
If it is true that the emperor is cruel and the Si people have passed away, why should they commit such self-deceptive behavior again? After all, even if concubines' faces were not corrupt, you Qianlong would not be able to see her in the tomb again, nor would you bury her with them, so why did you do so? The funniest thing is that in the years after Lingfei's death, Qianlong often wrote several poems for her because he was worried about her. Cherish it when you are around, it should be the best pampering.
