History is the memory of things that have been said and done. —Carl Baker
Among the 30 sons of the Kangxi Emperor there was a special presence, he was the twenty-fourth son of Kangxi. Why say he's special? Because he was born with a disability. And the status of the birth mother is not high, but this son has not bothered Kangxi! At the age of 17, she was born with a congenital disability and was able to lead her troops on the orders of Kangxi and make great achievements. Today, we will talk about the birth mother of the twenty-four sons of the emperor: Concubine Dai Jia.
Dai Jia, from the Family of Qipin Officials, was originally an ordinary palace maid in the imperial palace. My father was only one of the most ordinary officials at the bottom of the Qing Dynasty. Dai Jiashi should have been selected as a palace maid on duty in the palace at 13. However, history does not record when Dai Jiashi was favored by Kangxi and slept in bed. Therefore, we do not know anything about Dai Jia's position before she became a concubine. Since she is a palace girl who is insignificant to the imperial family, it is a matter of not giving a position to the emperor!
It can also be seen that Dai Jiashi is also very popular with the emperor, and at this time she is pregnant with a prince for the emperor. Originally dai jia clan who was not born tall, with the occasional favor of the emperor, she became pregnant with the emperor's child, which could make the Dai Jia clan happy, if it was a prince, she and the whole family would follow the light! So, in the seventeenth year of the Kangxi Dynasty. Dai Jia, who was pregnant with full term, gave birth to a little prince, but this little prince was born with a disability. This is an unlucky representation for the royal family! Originally, I thought that with the birth of the child, I could get a good position. But I didn't expect this to be the result!
Even Dai Jia, who gave birth to a crown prince, was also a concubine without a position. And her own child was not qualified to be raised as a concubine. So he was given to Huifei Nara to raise! Living in such a lowly position, The crown prince YinYou, born of Dai Jia, although born with a disability, did not disappoint Kangxi. At the age of 17, he led his troops on the orders of the emperor to win the battle and won the military merit and was awarded the title of Baylor! Watching his son have such a show, maybe this is also a comfort! After giving birth to the crown prince, Dai Jiashi did not have a canonization, and has been living in the harem as a concubine, so that he stayed for 40 years!
Finally, in the fifty-seventh year of the Kangxi Dynasty, when the emperor was enthroned as harem concubines in large numbers, Dai Jia was directly promoted from concubines of any rank per month to concubines. At this time, Dai Jiashi was already in his 50s! He was the eldest of the concubines who were crowned together. After staying up for so many years, I finally got a bit. All this may have been the comfort given by the emperor in the old age of the Dai Jia clan, and perhaps it was also stained with the light of Yin You, the son who became the king of the county. After the death of Kangxi, Dai Jia lived as a princess until qianlong for five years, and according to calculations, Dai Jia at this time was at least 73 years old!
What do you think about such a woman's life?
