She was only a permanent sister, sister with Concubine Ling, raised her youngest son, and was named a noble concubine by Qianlong

Sometimes, some small roles will also stage a good play of salted fish turning over, this kind of good drama is often staged in history, such as the Concubine of the Qianlong Harem, who was originally just a palace girl, but relied on her own efforts to gain the favor of Qianlong, and finally won the name of the empress, called Empress Xiaoyi. In addition to Concubine Ling, there was also a small character in the Qianlong harem who flew up the branches, and a small concubine who was eventually crowned by Qianlong was eventually crowned by Qianlong, and the relationship between this person and Concubine Ling was also very unusual, she was Ying Guifei.

Ying Guifei was a woman from Mongolia with a red flag, surnamed Balin, and her father was a metropolitan and light car lieutenant.

Regarding the time when Ying Guifei entered the palace, there is no record in the historical records, but from the situation that she was born in the ninth year of Yongzheng, Ying Guifei could enter the palace as early as the eighth year of Qianlong, but the earliest record of her in the historical materials was in the thirteenth year of Qianlong, and in this year, it was already the year that Ying Guifei who was always present was named that noble person and began to rise in the Qianlong harem.

After that, although Ying Guifei did not have children for Qianlong, she was crowned two more titles, namely Qianlong was named Ying Concubine in the sixteenth year, and Qianlong was named Ying Concubine in the twenty-fourth year.

Moreover, some information shows that the relationship between Concubine Ying and Concubine Ling should be very unusual.

In the thirty-second year of Qianlong, Princess Heshuo and Jia were seriously ill, and Qianlong quickly ordered Emperor Ling's noble concubines living in Chuxiu Palace and Concubine Ying, who lived in Jingren Palace, to visit, and after the princess's death, Emperor Ling and Concubine Ying and other concubines went to the Princess Mansion to mourn.

In the first month of the fortieth year of Qianlong, Emperor Guifei became seriously ill, and Qianlong ordered Concubine Ying and Concubine Wan to go to take care of Imperial Concubine, and after The Death of Imperial Concubine, Qianlong gave the seventeen-year-old Brother Yongxuan, who was only 10 years old, to Concubine Ying to raise.

These few things are enough to see the friendship between Concubine Ying and Concubine Ling.

In addition, since the death of Concubine Shu in the forty-second year of Qianlong, Princess Yufei was old and frail and had been living in simplicity, although it was Qianlong himself who dominated the harem, but from the perspective of specific handling of harem affairs, it should be Yingfei who had the right to speak at that time.

On April 15 of the third year of Jiaqing, Emperor Qianlong issued a decree: "Concubine Ying has reigned for a long time, and she is seventy years old, and she is crowned a noble concubine." In the book of noble concubines of Ying Guifei, there is a sentence called "The Nine Emperors of The Nine Emperors".

Moreover, before Qianlong ascended the throne, Concubine Ling Ying moved from Jingren Palace to Yongshou Palace, giving Jingren Palace to the Jiaqing Empress Xi Tara clan (Empress Xiaoshurui) to live. As the empress of the Qing Dynasty, the Kitara clan moved to jingren palace, rather than other palaces, because Concubine Ying was the ruler of the harem of the Qing Dynasty at that time, and in terms of the palace, there was also a bit of a "succession" meaning.

After Jiaqing took over the government, Ying Guifei was honored as Ying Gui's concubine and lived in Shoukang Palace, the highest-ranking woman in Shoukang Palace. However, what is unexpected is that in the next year, when Princess Yinggui celebrated her seventieth birthday, the happy event turned into a funeral.

At that time, the Seventeenth Brother Yongxuan, without the permission of his brother Jiaqing, privately sent birthday gifts to the Shoukang Palace, but according to the palace regulations, this situation was not allowed, so Jiaqing severely reprimanded Yongxuan and removed him from all his positions.

Seeing that her adopted son was reprimanded by the emperor for her birthday, Princess Yinggui was depressed and died not long after, at the age of 70. The following year, Concubine Ying was buried in the Qianlong Yu Mausoleum Concubine Garden.
