In March of 1748, everything recovered, a hundred flowers with buds, new swallows and mud, Jiangnan and green, is a rather beautiful spring.
But the spring of the Qianlong Emperor died.
His lover, Empress Fucha, died in this spring. He could not shed tears, as a son of heaven, he was just silent, buried Empress Fucha thickly, and personally wore filial piety to guard the funeral, but also in order to protect fucha mausoleum, set up a special gate to guard here, even if the minister objected, he did not care.
He was diligent all his life and adhered to the royal way, but his lover was still confined to stereotypes and bad habits, and he was a son of heaven for such a long time. In memory of Empress Fucha, he also gave a poem, four of which are:
Twenty years of concentricity became the passing water, and the two eyes of blood and tears spilled the east wind.
Knowing that he had lost his son and died his mother, why should he have hoped for a dream bear in the first place.
The meaning of this poem is that twenty years of togetherness have become the flowing water of the past, and only the tears of the eyes can be sprinkled in the east wind. If he had known that losing his son would take away his mother, it would have been better not to have those two princes!
In ancient times, passing on the lineage was the most important thing, and the Qianlong Emperor, as a king, should set an example for all the people. However, he preferred not to have a prince, and also hoped that Empress Fucha could survive, which showed the depth of his affection and affection for Empress Fucha.
Empress Fucha, born in 1712, Manchurian yellow flag people, yellow flag is one of the eight banners of Manchuria, but also the first of the three banners, the status is respected, Empress Fucha's birth is naturally extremely noble, and the family is highly valued by Yongzheng, so when Yongzheng reigned after qianlong election, the first consideration was the Fucha family.
Born in such a family, the Fucha clan naturally received a very good education, and when they were teenagers, they were born in a very elegant, knowledgeable, gentle and generous manner, so they were valued by Yongzheng and were designated as the queen of the Hongli (that is, the Qianlong Emperor). In 1727, at the age of 15, Fucha married into the Aisin Kyora family.
After fucha clan and Hongli got married, the two of them talked about it for a long time, and Fucha's knowledge in all aspects made Hongli appreciate it, and the two entered a passionate love after marriage, both respecting each other and like glue like lacquer, which is the love of Mandarin ducks known to everyone in the palace compound.
Hongli once said in the poem that after he knew Fucha, he truly realized the beauty of the love in "Guan Ju". There were actually many concubines in hongli, but he favored Empress Xiaoxian, that is, Empress Fucha, and the two stayed in the palace of the Yuanmingyuan for nine years, rarely going to see his concubines.
In 1735, after Yongzheng's death, Hongli ascended the throne as the Qianlong Emperor, and the Fucha clan became the later Empress Fucha. After Qianlong ascended to the throne, he was even more fond of Empress Fucha, and the three palaces and six courtyards were abandoned, and they rushed to see Fucha.
And Empress Fucha was also gentle and considerate, the Qianlong Emperor was once ill, the body was very weak, Empress Fucha often accompanied him, meticulously took care of him and waited for him for a hundred days, until the Qianlong Emperor's health improved, Empress Fucha returned to her palace and was able to rest well.
It is precisely because the two are so in love that when Empress Fucha died in 1748, the Qianlong Emperor was so sad. During the 22 years that the two lived together, Empress Fucha gave birth to two sons and two daughters for Qianlong. Unfortunately, the eldest daughter died prematurely, which made Empress Fucha feel quite sad in her heart, and she came out with the company and comfort of Qianlong.
In 1747, the youngest second son of both of them also died at the age of one, which made Empress Fucha feel very distressed. From then on, he became depressed, and by 1748 he was depressed and died. Therefore, the Qianlong Emperor would say that he would rather not have two princes, and hoped that Empress Fucha would live well.
It is precisely because the two have a deep love affair that they have been adapted into many film and television works. For example, "Ruyi Zhuan", "Yanxi Raiders", etc., but also have to admire the director's casting skills, because from the portrait of Empress Fucha, it is quite similar to Qin Lan, who played her in "Yanxi Raiders".
