She was a beautiful woman from the grassland, and it was said that the women of Korqin were all beautiful and clever, so Menggu Youth Ji stood out lightly and was a famous little beauty at that time.
Borjigit Mengguqing was the first empress of Shunzhi who was crowned before her death, the daughter of this Mongolian prince was born very squeamish, but beautiful, she was the niece of Xiaozhuang, and Shunzhi was considered a cousin, such a kiss and affection, in ancient times, it was a very popular thing, plus it was designated by the regent Dolgun, the significance of this marriage was extraordinary, but for Shunzhi at that time, he was still a child, and he did not understand the affairs of children's love.
When Shunzhi was fourteen years old, he and Meng Guqing held a wedding, the significance of this wedding is unusual, because it is a kiss, at this time Shunzhi is smaller than Meng Guqing, after marriage, Meng Guqing was crowned as an empress by a concubine, this empress is not only beautiful and smart, but Shunzhi does not like her, which makes many people feel strange, it may be that Shunzhi has always advocated frugality and Meng Guqing is too luxurious, so Shunzhi looks down on Meng Guqing, over time, the shortcomings of the empress are slowly exposed, she is jealous by nature, and cannot tolerate people Shunzhi was always noisy, often gambling, or friction, Shunzhi wanted to abolish her very early, but because of the existence of Dorgon, he never dared, because the power at that time was actually in the hands of Dorgon, and Shunzhi was actually a puppet, so Shunzhi had to endure, and after Dorgon's death, Shunzhi was really impatient, and he was determined to abolish this empress, and he resolutely abolished this empress despite the opposition of his ministers. She was demoted from empress dowager to concubine and made her live in the side palace. After being demoted to a jing concubine, she disappeared from the classic historical materials, and she did not know where she went, some people said that she returned to the grassland, and some people said that she had disappeared since then.
So why did Shunzhi depose the empress?
The first point: Shunzhi did not like her from the heart, he was forced to marry her when he was married, and when he married her, he was very young and did not understand what children's love was, so he lived together, and after a long time, he became disgusted with her, so he abolished it.
The second point: Meng Guqing is a grassland woman, there will be a more delicate side of the natural personality, always quarreling with him, often gambling, in the ancient patriarchal society, men have always been in a dominant position, let alone the emperor? So after a long time, Shunzhi had had enough, so he decided to depose the empress and choose someone else.
The third point: Shunzhi married her when she was forced by Dorgon, Dorgon did not dare to do so, but when Dorgon died, the opportunity came, that is to say, shunzhi had a fire in his heart when he married her, and this fire was not extinguished for a long time, because Shunzhi hated Dorgon so much that after Dorgon's death, he also whipped the corpse of Dorgon, which shows how much Shunzhi hated Dorgon, and it happened that the marriage was forced by Dorgon, so Shunzhi waited until Dolgun died and immediately deposed the empress. This is in effect a continuation of the hatred of Dolgun.
The fourth point: Shunzhi has long been empathetic to others, Shunzhi's favorite is Dong Efei, not Meng Guqing, and Meng Guqing's arrogance and unreasonableness have long made Shunzhi deeply tired, so he waited for the time to be ripe to abolish her, and finally when the time was ripe, he abolished it.
In the end, Meng Guqing became a laughingstock and became the deposed empress of the Qing Dynasty, and eventually disappeared.
