Compared with the amorous Qianlong, Jiaqing can be said to be a relatively unmarried emperor, and the entire harem adds up to only sixteen concubines, even much less than Yongzheng. However, Jiaqing also has her own favorite women, such as the two empresses Xiao Shurui and Empress Xiao and Rui, such as the two imperial concubines and the Yu Emperor and the Gongshun Emperor's concubines, and then the four concubines, that is, Shufei, Zhuangfei, Xinfei and Huafei, and the woman I want to talk about today has also been favored by Jiaqing, she is Chun Concubine.
Chun Concubine's surname is Dong Shi (東氏), also known as Dong Jia (東佳氏), is a woman from the Han Military Banner whose father is Shi Tai, the head of the bureau. Although the Dong clan comes from the Eight Banners, his father's official position is not high, and he is from an ordinary bureaucratic family. So, when did Dong Jiashi enter the harem?
As for when Dong Jiashi entered the palace, there is no record in the historical records, but from the existing information, Dong Jiashi should be a newcomer to the palace through the Outer Eight Banners draft after Jiaqing succeeded to the throne, and the time should be in the second year of Jiaqing or the third year of Jiaqing. When he first entered the court, Dong Jia's first position was Chun Guiren.
At that time, emperor Qianlong was still alive, and Jiaqing was very cautious in crowning concubines, but the young and beautiful Dong Jia was fortunate to gain jiaqing's favor, and in the third year of entering the palace, that is, in the sixth year of Jiaqing, he was promoted to a concubine, and his living treatment changed qualitatively. At the same time, Dong Jiashi also became the first concubine to be made a concubine after Jiaqing succeeded to the throne.
However, for some reason, just after this canonization, Dong Jiashi lost the favor of Jiaqing, and since then, he has never been able to get the opportunity to be promoted. For example, in the thirteenth year of Jiaqing, the eldest grandson of Emperor Jiaqing Xitian, had been promoted to the harem concubines, but there was no Dong Jia clan, which showed that the Dong Jia clan had fallen out of favor at this time.
After that, dong jiashi even had a hard time seeing the side of tianzi, let alone having children for him, all she had to do every day was to sit by the door of the palace, watch the flowers bloom and fall in front of the court, watch the sky clouds roll in, the flowers in the palace bloomed and failed, defeated and opened, dong Jiashi also gradually grew white hair in the erosion of the years.
On October 13, 2004, Concubine Chun died of illness in the palace, and it is estimated that the age should be about thirty-five years old. Subsequently, Jiaqing ordered the disposal of his relics, most of which were given to the empress, and some of them were given to concubines such as Concubines, Concubines, Concubines, Rongguiren, Enguiren, and An Changzai.
Jiaqing Jin sealed Dong Jiashi as a concubine of Chun:
"Teach De Rong to be a handsome subordinate. Rule the Six Houses. Show merit and be cautious. Five positions in the class. Pampered. Ju Caihui increased. The Tung clan of the Noble Lord. Early reputation roujia. Dreams of Honor. The rank of the pepper coating. Quiet things are only appropriate. Yu LanYe's Jia name. Cultivation is unique. It is the use of Jin Feng'er as a concubine. Tin Book of Destiny. Erqi coat of arms Kehe. Respectfully, it is in the same way. Boom boom. Lang was promoted to Hua Coupon. Thanks. ”
