The Yongzheng Emperor's mother, Empress Xiaogongren, bore Kangxi six children in her lifetime, including three daughters, namely the Seventh Daughter of the Emperor, the Ninth Daughter of the Emperor, and the Twelve Daughters of the Emperor, and only one of the three Imperial Daughters lived to adulthood, and she was the Ninth Daughter of the Emperor, that is, Princess Wenxian of Gulun that we are talking about.
On September 22, 22, Kangxi, Princess Wenxian was born in the Forbidden City, and her mother was Princess Wuya. Wu Ya was originally a palace girl, but she was fortunate to be favored by the Kangxi Emperor and constantly gave birth to a crown princess, Princess Wen Xian, who was the third child born to Wu Ya.
During the Kangxi dynasty, after the birth of the Crown Princess Dragon Daughter, most of them would be raised by other concubines, such as the first son born to wu ya, Yin Chan, who was raised by Empress Xiaoyiren, and the same was true after the birth of Princess Wenxian, Kangxi handed this daughter over to Empress Renxian to raise, who is this Empress Renxian?
It turned out that this Empress Renxian was the second empress of the Shunzhi Emperor, that is, Empress Xiaohuizhang, who entered the palace after the shunzhi emperor's abolition and was immediately made empress, but she was not favored by the Shunzhi Emperor, plus the Shunzhi Emperor died young, and Empress Xiaohuizhang never had children in her life.
After Kangxi succeeded to the throne, although his birth mother Tong Shi was honored as the empress dowager (Cihe Empress), Tong Shi died of illness in the palace only two years later, when Kangxi was still a minor, so the task of taking care of the young Kangxi was basically completed by Emperor Renxian, so it is said that Kangxi treated Empress Renxian with great respect and respect, no less than empress Dowager Xiaozhuang.
It is said that since this Princess Wenxian came to empress dowager Renxian, she has received everyone's attention, and her treatment is much better than other princesses, in the "List of Numbers of Pigs, Geese and Chickens for the Empress Dowager and Princesses", Princess Wenxian is better than the treatment of the fourth princess and the sixth princess, of course, this also has a lot to do with her raising around the empress dowager.
Moreover, Princess Wenxian was very intelligent and well educated from an early age, and in the later princess's tribute text, it was described: "Princess Er showed Ziwei, Xiangkai Yinhan, and Yu Cimin from swaddling." Love is every time you live in joy, and the day is not contrary to the left and right. The weak are taught, the wisdom is dreamed, the sex is self-pleasing to the poetry book, and the line is harmonious in the history of proverbs. It is said that the husband Jingfu Ji will enjoy forever, and the husband Xiuling will be the home of the uncle of the Yuan, and he will comfort the love of the relatives. ”
Of the eight daughters of Kangxi's adulthood, six were married to Mongolia, and two were left in the Central Plains, Princess Wenxian was one of them, and when Princess Wenxian was eighteen years old, she was named Princess Heshuo by her father Kangxi and married Shun'an Yan of the Tong family with the yellow flag, in fact, this Shun An Yan was not an outsider.
Shun Anyan's father, named Ye Keshu, was the eldest son of his uncle Tong Guowei, that is to say, Kangxi married his daughter to the son of his cousin Ye Keshu, at that time, the Tong clan was in its heyday, and even the pattern of "Tong Half Dynasty" appeared, and it was able to marry into the Tong family with deep roots, which was a very good ending for Princess Wenxian.
However, some things are always unexpected. In the third year of Princess Wenxian's marriage, she accompanied her grandmother Empress Renxian to the Rehe Palace to escape the heat, but did not expect to die of heat stroke, only 20 years old, Kangxi heard that his daughter Wen Xian died, he was very sad about this, and he was even more worried that it would affect the health of the empress dowager, and later saw the empress dowager eat, Kangxi barely ate some.
In March of the first year of Yongzheng, shortly after the Yongzheng Emperor succeeded to the throne, he ordered that this only adult sister be posthumously named Princess Gulun Wenxian. It is worth mentioning that Princess Wenxian's husband Shun An Yan's life was not very smooth, and Shun An Yan was stripped of his forehead in the forty-eighth year of kangxi because of the eldest son of the Party Emperor Yin Zhen and imprisoned in the family, and YongZheng only released it after he succeeded to the throne and awarded it to the minister of the leading guard, shun an Yan died in the second year of Yongzheng.
