Friends who are familiar with the history of the Qing Dynasty know that Jiaqing was the fifteenth son of Qianlong, originally named Yongyan, who was named prince of Jia in 1789, crown prince in 1795, and officially took the throne in 1796, known as the Jiaqing Emperor. At the same time, he was also the seventh emperor of the Qing Dynasty and the fifth emperor after the Qing army entered the Central Plains.
In 1760, the Jiaqing Emperor was born, and her mother was Empress Xiaoyi chun of the Wei Jia clan, which was also a famous concubine in the history of the Qing Dynasty. According to the "Draft History of the Qing Dynasty", she was born in 1727, the daughter of the internal administrator Wei Qingtai, who belonged to the Manchurian Cloth of the Yellow Banner and was sixteen years younger than the Qianlong Emperor. She was very popular with the Qianlong Emperor after her beautiful appearance and entered the palace, and she was one of the three concubines at the age of nineteen.
Friends who have watched "Huan Zhu Gege" and "Yanxi Raiders" know that the Ling Concubine in the play is intelligent and kind, and is the xiannei assistant of the Qianlong Emperor, after the Qianlong Emperor deposed the empress of the Ula Na La clan, Ling Fei took the title of imperial concubine to take charge of the harem, acting as the empress, and became the lord of the harem who had no name but held the real power of the harem. It can be seen from this that the Qianlong Emperor's trust in her is extremely deep.
Quite scheming
Although her identity is a flag person, she belongs to the relatively low-born wrapped slaves. Looking through the "Draft History of the Qing Dynasty", we can see that the children born to the wrapped slaves can only become the slaves of the wrapped clothes. Since she was drafted into the palace, she was just one of the many palace ladies in the Forbidden City. But she was not willing to just be an ordinary palace maid, she wanted to be the emperor's woman. Therefore, under careful planning, she successfully captured the heart of the Qianlong Emperor.
In "Yanxi Raiders", she has a righteous and kind personality, is good at fighting wits and courage, never bows her head when encountering setbacks, even if she is bullied, she will not swallow her anger, even if the person who bullied her is in a high position, she still has revenge and is not soft.
Because she was different from other palace girls, when Qianlong first saw her, he was deeply impressed by her and felt that she had a different flavor. As we all know, Qianlong is relatively mercurial in nature and has traveled to the south of the river many times. This can be seen from "Huan Zhu Gege", Ziwei is the daughter he left behind during his southern tour.
Although it is more popular, Qianlong is also very dedicated to love, and in real history, the woman Qianlong loved most in his life was his first empress, Empress Xiaoxianchun. Unfortunately, Empress Xiaoxianchun died of illness during the Eastern Tour. Qianlong mourned deeply, and personally wrote "Shu Sorrowful Endowment" to mourn it.
After Empress Xiaoxianchun's death, although it was a great blow to Qianlong, it was a great opportunity for other women in the palace who wanted to ascend to the throne.
Although Wei Jiashi is usually very strong, she has a degree of control, knows how to divide inches, and knows when to be strong and when to be weak. After staying in the palace for a long time, she naturally knew that the women in the harem might have made Qianlong tasteless for a long time, plus her style had also successfully attracted the Qianlong Emperor. The Qianlong Emperor, who did not control his "emotions", wanted to forcibly spoil her.
Want to get away with it
However, Wei Jiashi played a routine of wanting to get away with it, and did not obey the Qianlong Emperor like other women in the palace, which aroused the curiosity and desire to conquer the Qianlong Emperor, so Qianlong forcibly spoiled Wei Jiashi. Later, Wei Jia showed a woman's weak side, she took the initiative to show weakness to the Qianlong Emperor, at this time, Wei Jia's family, out of the "closed moon shy flower", let the Qianlong Emperor very happy.
You can think about it, the Qianlong Emperor was not a civil and military official or a uniform harem woman all day long, and the unassuming Concubine Ling (Wei Jiashi) brought him different feelings, how could this not make him physically and mentally happy and excited? Therefore, after forcibly favoring Wei Jiashi, Wei Jiashi's performance made the Qianlong Emperor completely sink.
From then on, Concubine Ling, who had a high emotional intelligence and IQ, successfully captured the heart of the Qianlong Emperor. He was greatly favored by the Qianlong Emperor. Under her efforts, starting from the palace maiden, climbing up step by step, and finally being crowned as an imperial concubine by the Qianlong Emperor. Although she did not serve as an empress for a day in her lifetime, at the behest of the Qianlong Emperor, she "regented the sixth palace" as an imperial concubine. After her death, her son Yongyan the Prince of Jia was made crown prince, and she was posthumously honored as Empress Xiaoyi.
summary
Concubine Ling's emotional intelligence was very high and beautiful, and among the more than forty famous concubines in Qianlong, she gave birth to four sons and two daughters for the Qianlong Emperor. It can be said that the reason why she was posthumously awarded the title of empress of the motherly world step by step from a palace maid is inseparable from her own efforts. She worked hard and had a very high mind, and with her humble and unobtrusive characteristics, she brought different feelings to the Qianlong Emperor, which made him excited and completely indulged in herself.
According to the "Qing History Manuscript", after the death of Concubine Ling, the Qianlong Emperor added 18 more pieces to her original funeral items, reaching a total of 76 pieces, only one less than the empress's. It can be seen that her weight in the heart of the Qianlong Emperor is heavy.
