"As soon as you enter the palace, the gate is as deep as the sea, and from then on Xiao Lang is a passerby." In the Qing Dynasty, 13 to 14-year-old Eight Flags women must participate in the draft, and they are recorded in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, but for these women, the information will not record their names, only their surnames, because the most important thing in the draft is not appearance, but birth.
Among the Manchu nobles, blood was the most important, so many concubines were related to each other, especially the Fucha clan, the Yehenara clan, the Niuhulu clan... These families contributed a lot to the harem of the Qing Dynasty, the emperor would still be drafted even if he was old, Qianlong married a pair of concubines who were related to his grandchildren, and the grandmothers married Qianlong, who was an empress, but the young and beautiful granddaughter was not cared about.
This "grandmother" is Qianlong's favorite empress Fucha, she was born on March 28, 1712, is Manchurian yellow flag, noble blood, from childhood received a good orthodox education, born beautiful, upright and generous, is the standard of everyone's bridesmaids, 1727 Yongzheng draft, Yongzheng at a glance can see that this 16-year-old woman in the future will be able to become a good empress, so he married this woman to his fourth son Hongli as a concubine Fujin.
After getting married, Hongli and fucha respected each other as guests. After ascending the throne, the Qianlong Emperor crowned him as the Empress of the Middle Palace, and in 1737 carried out a canonization ceremony, even if he had three palaces and six courtyards, Qianlong and Empress Fucha were undiminished in love, and Empress Fucha was also a good empress, and the affairs of the harem were handled properly, Qianlong once praised the empress: "After looking at the sages of the ancients, Gaishi has no way to add." However, Qianlong lived for a long time, but Empress Fucha died at the age of 37, and Qianlong was grieving at the time, and the loss of his lover also led to a major change in his temperament later.
Although he lost his empress, he was very close to the empress's brother Fu Heng, although there was no Empress Fucha around to speak for his family, Qianlong was still very partial to the Fucha family, in the second half of his long life, wrote countless poems to remember his empress, every sentence revealed Qianlong's endless love for her, Empress Fucha left early, became the white moonlight of Qianlong's subsequent life, it seems that no one can compare with her.
In the 3rd year of Jiaqing, Qianlong accepted a 16-year-old Jingui, at this time Qianlong was 88 years old, and the Jingui was selected by the Jiaqing Emperor for Qianlong, with a beautiful appearance and a good appearance, and was also a woman of the Fucha family. However, in terms of generations, she was the granddaughter of Empress Fucha's grandfather, and should also be called "aunt" by Empress Fucha, and the Qianlong Emperor also married two women of the Fucha family at one time.
Jin Guiren was young and beautiful, but he could not do the red rose of the Qianlong Emperor, when she just entered the palace, she was cold from the emperor, because of the relationship between Empress Fucha, the Qianlong Emperor would not embarrass her, but the age difference was huge, plus Qianlong always had Empress Fucha in her heart, and she was beaten into the cold palace as soon as she entered the palace. In 1799, a year after the Jin nobles entered the palace, Qianlong died.
We all know that the women of the Emperor of the Qing Dynasty cannot remarry, the Jin nobles are young, born into a family family, if they do not enter the palace and casually find a noble prince to marry, the rest of their lives may be very happy, but after Qianlong's death, she only became a member of the Qing Dynasty princesses at the age of 17, counting the days in loneliness and loneliness every day, and even in the historical materials there are not her words, so it can be seen that Qianlong has no heart for her.
Compared with Empress Fucha, although Empress Fucha only lived for 37 years, when she was alive, as an empress, she could still get the favor of the emperor, which was an honor, after death, Qianlong still missed it day by day, and although her life died early, it lived in Qianlong's heart. Jin Guiren's life is too miserable, not only has no love, but also has to be locked by the deep palace wall to lock her own shell, becoming a lonely and nameless woman, and no one has been brilliant in her life, which is a pity.
