Kangxi was the 4th emperor of the Qing Dynasty and also a generation of Ming emperors, during his reign, he captured Aobai, quelled the Rebellion of the Three Domains, recovered Taiwan, personally conquered Dzungar, and defeated the invading army of Tsarist Russia, expanding the territory of the Great Qing. At the same time, Kangxi also exerted great efforts to govern and created the prosperous era of Kangqian.
After Kangxi's death, a total of 5 women were buried with him, 4 of whom were empresses and the other was not qualified, but was stuffed into the imperial tomb by Yongzheng.
1. Herschel.D
Herschel was the original empress of Kangxi. The third emperor of the Qing Dynasty, Shunzhi, died when his son Kangxi was only 8 years old, so he arranged for Soni, Suksaha, Shubilong, and Aobai to assist Kangxi. Although Shunzhi arranged 4 auxiliary ministers for his son, Suksaha had a bad deed of betraying Dolgun, and everyone looked down on him, and he had no prestige in the court, and he had no voice in the court.
He was an elaborate egoist who echoed Ao Bai at every turn and was reluctant to help Kangxi against Ao Bai. Although Sony is the head of the four major auxiliary ministers, he is old and unwilling to confront Ao Bai, which gradually forms a situation in which the Ao Bai family is dominant. Aobai has a very strong personality, and repeatedly forces Kangxi to kill people who have offended him, but Kangxi does not want to kill. Even if Kangxi refused to order them to be killed, Aobai would correct the killing of those who had offended him, which made his relationship with Kangxi more and more tense. At the same time, Shu Bilong suggested that the four auxiliary ministers return to Kangxi, and because Ao bai was unwilling to hand over power, he disobeyed Kangxi's will and killed Shu Bilong, which made Kangxi hate him to the bone.
Ao bai's power was monstrous, and even if Kangxi hated Ao Bai very much, he did not dare to act recklessly for the sake of the Qing Dynasty. His grandmother, Empress Xiaozhuang, married Sony's granddaughter Hesheli to Kangxi's empress on the pretext of marrying Kangxi, which drew Sonny into the Kangxi camp.
Sonny was reluctant to confront Aobai head-on, but he had his son Soetu resign and become Kangxi's imperial bodyguard to protect Kangxi's safety. Subsequently, Suo Etu trained a group of noble disciples for Kangxi, and finally took advantage of the opportunity of Ao Bai's visit to the palace to capture Ao Bai.
The marriage of Kangxi and Herschel was a political marriage, but after the two were married, they were like glue and very loving. When Hesheli was 21 years old, she gave birth to the second son of the Emperor (the eldest son) Yin Rong for Kangxi, but she herself died in childbirth. After the death of the Herschel clan, Kangxi, because of his longing for the Hersheli clan, made her son Yin Rong crown prince. Later, Yin Rong was deposed for rebelling against Kangxi.
2. The NiuHulu clan
In order to oppose Ao bai, when kangxi chose a concubine, he married Sonny's granddaughter Hesheli clan to empress, and made Qiu Bilong's daughter Niu Hulu Shi Na a concubine, but Shu Bi long disappointed Kangxi, and he did not help Kangxi fight against Ao Bai because his daughter was made an imperial concubine by Kangxi Na. After Kangxi captured Aobai, Shu Bilong was also implicated and suppressed by Kangxi, but he did not lose his life.
Although Kangxi was very dissatisfied with Qiu Bilong, he was not dissatisfied with his daughter Niu Hulu, and Kangxi also favored Niu Hulu. After the death of the Hersheli clan, Kangxi crowned the Niuhulu clan as his empress. Niu Hulu was an empress, so she was also buried with Kangxi after her death.
3. Tong Jiashi
Tong Jia was the daughter of Tong Guowei, a major minister of the Qing Dynasty, and a cousin of Kangxi, and was very favored by Kangxi. Tong Jia gave birth to the eighth daughter of the Emperor for Kangxi, but unfortunately died early. In the twentieth year of the Kangxi Dynasty, he crowned Tong Jia as an imperial concubine, second only to the empress. In the twenty-eighth year of the Kangxi Dynasty, Tong Jiashi fell seriously ill, and Kangxi was very upset and crowned Tong Jiashi as empress. Soon after, Tong Jiashi died of illness.
4. Uyashi
Wu Ya clan was born in zheng huang qi baoyi, the status is very low, when giving birth to the fourth son of the emperor Yin Chan, due to the low status, there is no qualification to raise his son, Kangxi handed Yongzheng to the Xiaoyiren empress Tong Jia to marry and raise, which made the relationship between Yongzheng and Wu Ya always relatively distant.
Later, Wu Yashi was the sixth son of the Kangxi Emperor, Yin Zuo, and was promoted to concubine. Subsequently, she gave birth to the seventh daughter of the Emperor, the Ninth Daughter of the Emperor, the Twelfth Daughter of the Emperor, and the Fourteenth Son of the Emperor, Yin Yu. In kangxi's later years, there were nine sons who seized the throne, and the fourteenth son of the emperor, Yin Yu, was very hopeful to seize the throne, but in the end, unexpectedly, before Kangxi died, he passed the throne to the fourth son of the emperor, Yin Chan (雍正), which also made the Wu ya clan very dissatisfied.
Although both Yongzheng and Yinyu were the biological sons of the Uya clan, the Uya clan did not like Yongzheng and wanted Yin Yu to be emperor. After Yongzheng became emperor, in order to stabilize his own throne, he began to suppress the members of the Eight Ye Party, and Yin Yu was forced by Yongzheng to guard the tomb for Kangxi, which made wu ya even more angry with Yongzheng, and soon died of depression. After Wu Yashi's death, Yongzheng posthumously made her empress and buried her with Kangxi.
5. Zhang Jiashi
Zhang Jia was born very low, when he first entered the palace, he was only a palace girl, and later gave birth to the thirteenth son of the emperor, Yun Xiang and two princesses, who were not canonized, but only a concubine, and were posthumously honored as concubines after death.
Among the nine sons, Yongzheng was at a disadvantage, but Yunxiang consistently and firmly supported Yongzheng and suffered many punishments for this. At the same time, after Yongzheng ascended the throne, Yun Xiang worked diligently and made many contributions to Yongzheng's stabilization of the country and governance of the country. In order to repay Yunxiang, Yongzheng posthumously honored his mother Zhang Jiashi as the imperial concubine of the Imperial Examination, and also let Zhang Jiashi, who was not eligible to be buried with Kangxi, be buried with Kangxi after his death.
