Throughout the history of China, the emperors of each dynasty are a group of wives and concubines, according to the history books, it is not difficult to find that the Qianlong Emperor is the most special of the twelve emperors of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, although he did not have the extreme diligence of his father Yongzheng, but to some extent, Qianlong left too many anecdotes to future generations.

Qianlong reigned for a total of 60 years, and after abdicating for four years, he was one of the longest-reigning emperors in the entire feudal dynasty, during his reign, both economic and demographic peaks, he went to Jiangnan six times, leaving a lot of affair.

However, the age gap, in the Emperor's house, is naturally nothing, and even, for concubines, in the age of the flower season, to marry someone who is enough to be her grandfather may not only be a disaster, but also an honor.

Concubine Xun was young and beautiful, if she had not entered the palace, perhaps she would have had several children of her own, however, Qianlong now, after all, is older, even if his last child was at the age of sixty-four, Princess Xiaoxiao gave birth to him, and Concubine Xun was also lucky to have a mother and daughter; but Concubine Xun did not continue this luck, entering the palace for many years, and never gave birth to a son and a half daughter.

There was no child support, and Qianlong rarely made concubines after entering old age, and Xun Concubine did not receive the title of concubine for the next eighteen years. Until the sixty years of Qianlong, in order to celebrate the sixtieth anniversary of the reign of the Qianlong Emperor, the Qianlong Emperor specially promoted a number of concubines, and Ilgen Jue Luoshi was finally promoted from Xun Concubine to Xun Concubine.

Guifei Xun's original name was Ilgen Jue Luoshi, was the daughter of the Governor of Guilin, the same Manchu, when she was born, Qianlong was already more than half a baile, Ilgen Jue Luoshi entered the palace at the age of 19 when Qianlong was 66 years old, because Ilgen Jue Luoshi was the youngest and most beautiful concubine in the harem, so the Qianlong Emperor naturally favored her. Because she was of noble birth, she was given the title of concubine as soon as she entered the harem. This starting point can be said to be very high, the average woman entering the harem, at most can only be crowned as a noble, must start from a lower position. But she directly skipped these low-level positions and directly became a concubine, with a higher status in the harem.
