The harem of the Qing Dynasty has both endless glory and wealth, as well as the hand of the ghostly demon, where you can't see, ready to give you a fatal blow, so the harem will have so many historical suspense.
Looking through the history of the Qing Dynasty, you will find that there are many concubines who died in an unclear way, and the vast majority of historical materials have been brushed over with "illness and death", but if you dig deep into the truth, the people and things involved behind it are secretive.
Just like the Empress of the Qing Palace who will talk to you next, it seems that the scenery is unlimited, the glory is continuous, and the fame and fortune are both gained, but in fact, she is a complete "cannon fodder" and eventually becomes a victim of imperial power.
She is Empress Xiaoshurui, the Hitara clan. Born in the 25th year of Qianlong, the Hitara clan was a Manchurian Zhengbaiqi man, whose father was the minister in charge of internal affairs, the deputy governor, the Cheng'en Gong and Er jing'e. In the thirty-ninth year of Qianlong, when he was only 15 years old, the Xitala clan was instructed by Qianlong to make the crown prince Yongyan (Jiaqing Emperor) a concubine.
According to the origin of the Xi tarrant, she was not qualified to be the crown prince's concubine Fujin, and in Qianlong's heart, the best candidate for Yongyan Fujin was not her, so why did she choose her as a concubine in the end? In fact, there is a reason behind this, at that time, Qianlong's harem was fighting for the secret tide, and Qianlong had secretly appointed the prince twice, but both leaked the wind, resulting in the death of the two princes early.
From then on, Qianlong never mentioned anything about the opposing prince, and no longer clearly showed his preference for which prince he preferred. In this way, everyone can't guess who the candidate for the prince in his heart really is.
In fact, Qianlong's most optimistic candidate for the crown prince was Yongyan, the later Jiaqing Emperor. However, in order to protect Yongyan, Qianlong has not shown how much he attaches importance to Yongyan, and he also has some scruples when choosing Concubine Fujin for him. Qianlong's most favored candidate for Concubine Fujin at that time was Niu Hulu (The second empress of the Jiaqing Emperor, Empress Xiaoherui), who was from a famous family and was the daughter of Libu Shangshu Gongala, who set the yellow flag for Manchuria.
However, in order to show that he did not attach importance to Yongyan, Qianlong chose a General-born Hitara clan as a concubine Fujin in order to use Yongyan, and let the Niuhulu clan be the side Fujin.
After marrying Yongyan, the Hitara clan was deeply favored by Yongyan and successively gave birth to the second daughter of the emperor, the second son of the emperor, Mianning (that is, the Daoguang Emperor), and the fourth daughter of the emperor, Princess Zhuang Jinggulun.
Later, Qianlong abdicated, Yongyan took the throne, became the Jiaqing Emperor, and in the first month of the first year of Jiaqing, the Xitala clan was made empress of the Zhenggong. As the original match of the emperor, he also gave birth to a concubine, or the lord of the harem, it can be said that this is what all the concubines of the Qing Palace dream of. But for the Hitara clan, it was just a dream bubble, she only served as empress for 13 months, she died of illness, and soon, Qianlong, who was already the Emperor Taishang, asked the Jiaqing Emperor to promote the then noble concubine Niu Hulu as an imperial concubine, and a year later made her empress.
Fortunately, the character of the Niu Cobalt Lu clan was not bad, after becoming an empress, she treated Mianning, the son of the Xitala clan, very well, and later the Jiaqing Emperor died, and the edict of succession disappeared, and the Niu Cobalt Lu clan could have let her own son become the emperor, but she did not do this, but instead supported Mianning to take the throne. (Later, the edict found that the heir chosen by the Jiaqing Emperor was indeed Mianning.) ）
Regarding the death of Theitara, many people have questioned her, thinking that her death is unclear, she is in her prime, how did she suddenly die of illness? Everyone suspected that the Hitara clan was poisoned, because her birth was not high, not qualified to be an empress, she was just a "cover" for Qianlong to hide people's ears, was the "cannon fodder" of the Niu Cobalt Lu clan, and later Jiaqing ascended the throne as emperor, and no one fought with him for the reserve, the Hitara clan also lost her role, for useless pawns, keeping is an obstacle, naturally it will be cleaned up.
