In the imperial palace of the Qing Dynasty, in addition to the emperor and the people around him, there are also people living underneath, especially the palace women, their future is actually still a little hopeful, after all, they are living with the emperor, and they may accidentally be favored by the emperor one day. But the Qing Dynasty rarely had such examples, so it is unlikely that the palace women want to be promoted to harem women. That being said, there are also individual special cases, such as Qianlong and his concubines. In Yongzheng's harem, there was actually a concubine born of a palace girl.
She was Yongzheng's humble concubine Liu Shi, and she not only rose from a palace maid to a concubine, but also gave birth to a prince smoothly. The father of this humble concubine was a member of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, so it is said that this concubine also entered the palace through the draft of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, but at first she was only a palace maid. Fortunately, her appearance is still outstanding, and after being favored by Yongzheng, she became a promise, although the position is the lowest, but it is always much better than a palace girl.
However, this is mostly because of her bad birth, the emperor is still very good to her, just when she entered the palace in the second year, she rose two levels in a row with the emperor's love for herself, it is obvious that at this time, Liu Shi is a woman in the palace who is in momentum. However, it was also in this year that she had just become a nobleman, but Yongzheng's body had problems, so serious that Yongzheng had prepared all the aftermath for himself in advance.
However, Yongzheng was also a particularly powerful emperor, and several illnesses could finally be cured, and this time there was no exception. After the emperor's body was no longer a problem, he naturally still loved this Liu clan, although the emperor was 56 years old, but Liu Shi still gave birth to a child, which made Yongzheng happy and did not know how to be good, after all, it was also an old son, so this Liu clan was further promoted to a higher rank, which is also a typical example of a mother relying on her son.
You know, Yongzheng is not an amorous emperor, and the women of his harem who are of similar rank have already existed when Yongzheng was still a prince, and this Liu clan can start from the beginning, and it is not easy to finally have such a status. Three years after Liu gave birth to the sixth prince, Yongzheng died. After Qianlong ascended the throne, he took extra care of his little brother, and in addition, because the age difference between the brothers was very large, Qianlong loved this little prince like an elder.
Later, Qianlong passed this younger brother to Prince Guo, and he also inherited this title by the way, the sixth prince when he was a child was very likable, but when he grew up, he became a different look, he became a person that Qianlong did not like with the emperor behind his back, and finally demoted him to a baylor. Since then, he has been ill, and although Qianlong regretted his actions when he finally died, it was of no use.
At this time, Liu Shi had been further canonized by Qianlong, but after her son died, she fell ill instantly, and soon after, she also died of illness. After her death, Qianlong not only dropped out of the dynasty for three days for this reason, but also buried her properly. However, this Liu family's life is still quite lucky, to be seen by the emperor is not to say, but also got many women's dreams of things, this life is also worth it.
