We all know that there are many concubines in the Kangxi harem, if you want to say who is the most special of these concubines, then it must be the good concubine Wei, Wei is not a simple woman, in the history books do not record what year she was born, but for her identity is recorded in great detail, she is a wrapped woman, that is, a slave born, the status is not high.
According to some regulations of the imperial court at that time, even women in clothing could participate in the draft, and these low-status women were obviously very concerned about the draft in order to change their fate, and Wei Shi was only favored by Kangxi as a concubine by participating in the draft. According to historical records, Wei Shi was only 13 years old at the time, but his appearance was beautiful, which made Kangxi look at it at a glance. If at the beginning Kangxi valued wei's beauty, then in the long years of getting along, Kangxi found that Wei was a woman with cultural attainments, so he became more and more fond of her, and later in the twentieth year of Kangxi, Wei gave birth to a prince, that is, The Eight Brothers Yinyu. Later, Yin Yu also grew into a very good prince who accompanied Kangxi on the expedition to Kaldan, and he was likely to become crown prince according to Yin Yu's talent, but he did not know why he had befriended his father and was also suppressed by Kangxi.
After giving birth to the crown prince, Wei's status was still in a state of not high or low, and he did not receive any canonization, until the thirty-ninth year of Kangxi was crowned as a concubine, and she was crowned so late, no doubt because of her birth status, after all, the reason for wanting to obtain the canonization of her family also accounted for a large part. After being made a concubine, Wei's promotion path in the harem became more and more smooth, and soon after, Wei was promoted to become a good concubine, before her, there was no example of a clothed woman being made a concubine in the Qing Dynasty, she can be said to be the first slave to be crowned as a concubine, which is enough to prove her position in Kangxi's heart.
It is reported that in the Yongzheng period, the edited Records of the Ancestors of the Holy Qing Dynasty mentioned that when Kangxi was teaching the Eight Brothers Yinyu, he had said that his mother Concubine Liang was a slutty woman of Xinzhiku, which made many people think that Kangxi hated the Wei family, in fact, this sentence had great doubts, after all, it was not recorded in the literature of the Kangxi period, and from some sources, it can also be seen that Kangxi has actually always loved the Wei family, and even after her death, he personally attended her memorial service, which is enough to prove that Kangxi loved her. I just don't know why Yongzheng has been smearing her.
