Since ancient times, most of the emperors have been affectionate, after all, they have "innate conditions", even if the emperor himself does not have this hobby, and finally under the influence of the environment and the pursuit of heirs, he will also be very enthusiastic about it, such as Qianlong. There is an endless stream of favored concubines around him, from the beloved empress to the pampered Concubine Ling, as well as the charming Concubine Rong, etc., so the question is, Empress Fucha and Concubine Ling, which one is more important to Qianlong? Among them, the queen has 2 points that are inferior to concubines.
Empress Fucha, Qianlong's original match, the relationship between the two after marriage is very harmonious and sweet. The empress's beauty and versatility and knowledge were all appreciated by Qianlong, and after her early death, she also received the emperor's lifelong thoughts. Concubine Ling, who was younger than the emperor, although she was from a humble background, but she was sympathetic and knew how to divide inches, which made the emperor very comfortable, so she was loved, so what if the two were compared?
First of all, the empress gave birth to 2 concubines for the emperor in her lifetime, and initially the emperor was very excited, treating each one as a future heir, but the heavens did not go according to people's wishes, these 2 princes were not blessed, and eventually died early, and Qianlong was devastated by this. Looking at Concubine Ling, Concubine Ling raised many children in her life, and the most well-known is the next emperor Yongyan, although her qualifications are mediocre, but in the end she also won.
In addition to the factor of "raising the tall son in the dwarf", the victory of Yongyan also occupies a certain factor by the mother. From the perspective of heirs, their treatment in the emperor's heart was similar, but according to the historical records, Concubine Ling had 2 points to win.
First: honor guard. As the mother of a country, the funeral after the death of the empress was extremely important, especially the emperor himself attached great importance to her, so empress Fucha had 59 ceremonial guards after her death. When Concubine Ling died, she was an imperial concubine, and it was reasonable to say that her honor guard would be less than that of the empress, but the emperor deliberately added an honor guard to her, until it finally reached 76 pieces. In such a comparison, Ling Concubine clearly won.
Second: The nickname. The ancients attached great importance to the title, which also represented everything before the death of this person, and the title after the empress's death was "Empress Xiaochunxian", but the "xian" in it was not given by Qianlong, but she asked for it herself before she died. At that time, Emperor Huixian's noble concubine died, Qianlong gave her the word "Huixian", and the empress was very envious after reading it, so she wanted the emperor to petition, and the emperor loved her, and naturally agreed, but in the end it was Qianlong who fulfilled her wishes.
After Concubine Ling's death, she was given the title of "Empress Xiaoyi Chun", and the "Yi" was taken by the emperor himself, and this word has great meaning. Qianlong's "dry" means heaven and yang, and "yi" means earth and yin, and "yi" has the meaning of mother in the folk, according to this meaning, placed in the palace is the meaning of empress, which shows how careful the emperor is.
Although Concubine Ling did not get the position of empress because of her identity and various reasons of government, in the emperor's heart, she was almost equivalent to the empress, and Xiaobian felt that for ancient women, this was probably the luckiest thing. As for which of the two of them is more important, everyone can only evaluate the radish greens, and each one chooses what they love.
