During the Qing Dynasty, after the death of the emperor or concubine, they would be given a title to show their lifelong virtues, however, not all concubines were eligible for a title, for example, the empress and the imperial concubine of the Qing Dynasty generally had a title after death, and the noble concubines only enjoyed the title of Wen Shu, and very few concubines could enjoy the title, and the Ming Huigong and Yuan Concubine (Hai Lanzhu) of the Imperial Taiji Harem were counted as one, in addition, there were two concubines in the Kangxi Harem who also received the title, one was Shunyi Concubine, and the other was the Pure Yu Qin Concubine to be talked about in this article.
Chunyu Qinfei Chen family was originally a Han chinese returning from Haicheng during the Nurhaci period, after returning to the Qing court, she was woven into a yellow flag wrapper, changed her surname to Chen Jia, Chunyu Qinfei's father was named Chen Xiqiao, who had served as a second-class bodyguard in the palace, in fact, a Han person from a family like Chen Xiqiao, who could serve as a bodyguard in the palace, was already very rare, and for Chen Xiqiao's daughter Chunyu Qinfei, her fate was also predestined, that is, to enter the palace to become a palace maid.
In the thirty-third year of the Kangxi Dynasty, the 16-year-old Concubine Chunyu Qin passed the draft of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and entered the imperial palace and became a palace maid. Although Princess Chunyu Qinfei's family is not good, she looks like a national color and is a complete beauty. Palace maidens with such a posture can easily attract people's attention, especially the emperor.
Sure enough, soon after entering the palace, Kangxi discovered the beautiful palace maid Officiation Chunyu, a chance summons, which changed her fate, and from then on, she was no longer a palace girl who was inferior to the four, but a concubine of the emperor. Moreover, Princess Chunyu Qinfei also took advantage of the opportunity of the bedchamber to become pregnant with a dragon species, and in the thirty-sixth year of Kangxi, she gave birth to a small prince, and this little prince was the Seventeenth Brother Yinli.
It is said that this Yin Li was quite loved by Kangxi when he was a child, and when he was less than ten years old, he followed Kangxi on a tour, and after Yong Zheng succeeded to the throne, he also attached great importance to this young and promising younger brother and made him the King of Guo County, and later because yin Li was honest and honest in his service to the country and honesty, he was promoted to prince, managed the household department, and took over the errands of Yin Xiang, the prince of Yi, and Yong Zheng also ordered Yin Li to assist the government before his death.
Because her son Yin Li was loved and valued by the emperor, Pure Yu Qinfei also followed the light, kangxi fifty-seven years, Kangxi ordered that the concubines between the ages of 40 and 60 and who had the birth of a prince be crowned as concubines, and Chun Yu Qinfei was among them, this time, Chun Yu Qinfei received the title of Qin Concubine.
After Yongzheng succeeded to the throne, Yin Li was reused, and Chunyu Qinfei was honored as the Imperial Concubine, and Yongzheng also pulled out the coat of Chunyu Qinfei's family and carried it into Manchuria with a yellow flag, which shows that Yongzheng is really not thin for Chunyu Qinfei's mother and son. After Qianlong succeeded to the throne, Princess Chunyuqin went further and was honored as The Imperial Ancestor Pure Yuqin's Concubine.
However, at this time, the triumphant YinLi wanted to follow the kangxi emperor's order that the elderly concubines could leave the palace to live with their sons, and requested that their mother Chunyu Qinfei be taken to live in his palace, but this request was rejected by Qianlong, but Qianlong still gave the emperor Yinli a little face, and ordered that during the Waxing Moon Festival or the birthday of Chunyu Qinfei, he could stay in the Yinli Mansion for a while.
In fact, after Qianlong succeeded to the throne, Concubine Chunyu Qinfei was not idle, and according to a Manchu recital in the nineteenth year of Qianlong, Princess Gulun and Princess Jing, the concubines born to Qianlong and Empress Xiaoxian, were raised by Concubine Chunyu Qin of Ningshou Palace in the early years of Qianlong.
On December 20, the eighteenth year of Qianlong, Princess Chunyu Qin, who had lived in the harem for more than half a century, passed away, and died at the age of 70, which can be regarded as a long-lived person. Among Kangxi's concubines, Concubine Chunyu Qin was one of the better, the only drawback was that her son Yin Li died in the third year of Qianlong, and she was faced with the situation that no one inherited the incense, so Qianlong passed on her younger brother Hongyao to Yin Li.
