She was the most special of Qianlong's many concubines.
He did not fight for power, but he was able to tilt the harem and remained in the concubine position for forty-seven years.
Not competing for favors, Qianlong was very fond of her, and even at the age of 78, he still did not forget her.
She was the concubine who had accompanied Qianlong for seventy-one years.
What is the charm of Princess Joy? At the age of 78, he was still deeply favored by Qianlong, and after his death, he was posthumously honored as a noble concubine.
Today we will talk about this topic.
Some people say that if a woman wants to tie a man's heart, she must tie up his appetite.
The appetite here can be food, beauty, talent and so on.
However, Princess Pleasure's mastery of these appetites was far inferior to that of other concubines in the harem.
So how did Princess Joy get favored?
You must know that the man that Princess Yufei faced was the most popular emperor in Chinese history. He not only harem three thousand, but at the age of 87, he still did not have any restraint, and still took a 16-year-old girl as a concubine.
In the face of such a scum of the century, even a beautiful person who is in her youth cannot tie Qianlong's heart. Not to mention an old woman who is in her prime.
So how did the 78-year-old Princess Yu get deeply favored by Qianlong?
In the sixth year of Qianlong, the haigui people were enthroned as concubines of pleasure, and the title of Qianlong was given the title of nemgiyen, which means: gentle and gentle.
That is to say, in Qianlong's heart, Princess Yu was a gentle and gentle woman.
This is also the reason why Qianlong pampered her.
Of course, this kind of reason was far from enough to tie Qianlong's heart.
Princess Yu guifei was also known as haijia clan (海佳氏), haishi (海氏), and the daughter of Erjitu (erjitu), a member of the Outer Lang
Although Lang Erjitu was a well-known local rich man, he had money but no power.
In order to be able to climb to power, he took his 7-year-old daughter
It was sent to the palace of the fourth son of the Emperor, Hongli, and became a Gege.
Please don't get me wrong, the grid here does not refer to the emperor's daughter. It was someone else's concubine.
In the Qing Dynasty, the status of concubines was very humble.
We often say that there are three wives and four concubines, and the status of concubines is even lower than that of concubines.
In general, a concubine is a composite of a concubine and a maid.
They not only have to serve their masters, but also have the obligation to pass on the generations.
Since entering the royal gates, Haishi has been doing the hardest and most tiring work.
Speaking of this, I have to split my legs to talk about Hai's father, this father is really a scumbag. Just as the so-called tiger poison does not eat children, for the power in his hands, he even let his daughter be a maid to others. This father was really cruel.
Fortunately, Hai's intelligence, gentleness, and understanding quickly attracted Qianlong's attention.
Before Qianlong ascended the throne, there were already 8 women around him, and Hai's status was the lowest, but he was the most favored one.
In the thirteenth year of Yongzheng, Hongli ascended the throne as the Qianlong Emperor. His women were also collectively canonized, and Haishi was sealed in order to seal Haichang, and since then, Hai's life has been like a hanging, all the way smooth.
In the second year of Qianlong's ascension to the throne, this former maid was once again honored as a nobleman of the sea.
In the harem of the Qing Dynasty, concubines were promoted by one rank in a short period of time, with only two special circumstances. One is the support of powerful forces behind the family. The other was Qianlong's favor. It is clear that the sea often belongs to the latter.
Not only that, but four years later, she was again named a concubine of Pleasure, and in the tenth year of Qianlong, she was promoted to a concubine of Pleasure. In the thirteenth year of Qianlong, Princess Yu was already at the top of the concubine position. Even Wei Yongluo, who was very favored at the time, was ranked behind her.
From the above analysis, the reason why Princess Yue is favored is that she is young and beautiful. The second is empathy, gentleness and generosity. But the two conditions she favored will only become worthless as she ages.
In fact, the reason why Princess Yue was still favored when she was more than old was inseparable from a person. This person was Yongqi, the son of Princess Yue.
In the sixth year of Qianlong, Haigui gave birth to the fifth son of the emperor, Yongqi. In the harem of the Qing Dynasty, the mother and son could never change the law. Even if the emperor loves a woman, if she does not give birth to a son and a half daughter for the imperial family, sooner or later she will fall out of favor. The Hai clan gave birth to a dragon son, Yongqi, for Qianlong, and this son was deeply loved by Qianlong.
However, Qianlong had seventeen sons in his lifetime, so why did Qianlong favor Yongqi alone?
Yongqi was valued by Qianlong, not only because his son knew astronomy and geography, was proficient in riding and shooting, and was proficient in astronomical algorithms. More importantly, this son had risked his life to protect him.
Once, after watching the dragon boat in the Yuanmingyuan, Qianlong took a nap at the Qingyan Hall in Kyushu. In order not to disturb the emperor's rest, the people around him were evacuated cleanly. Only two sons, Yongjun and Yongqi, were left.
But somehow, a fire suddenly broke out in the hall, and the fire was very fierce, and in a short while, the three people were trapped in the fire. Just at the moment of the thousand guns, Yong Qi picked up Qianlong and rushed out directly.
After Qianlong was rescued, he learned that YongJun had abandoned himself and had already escaped. Yong Juan's approach made Qianlong very chilled. On the contrary, Yongqi still did not forget this old father at the moment of life and death, which made Qianlong extremely moved.
Since then, Qianlong has had an unusual preference for this son.
To what extent did Qianlong favor Yongqi? At the age of 24, he was made the Prince of Heshuorong. This glory even ranked behind the Jiaqing Emperor. However, his beloved son died of illness at the age of 26.
Qianlong was devastated by Yongqi's death and ordered him to be buried in the tomb of Prince Ding, also known as the Tomb of the Crown Prince. It can be seen from here that Qianlong has already regarded Yongqi as the first heir. Even though this son was dead, Yongqi's position in his heart had not changed.
After Yong Qi's death, Qianlong's heart seemed to have an unsolvable knot, and he could not let go. Every time he thought of this son, Qianlong would think of Concubine Yu who had lived in the harem for a long time. Because Qianlong knew that the regret in his heart was insignificant compared to that of Concubine Yue.
Later, Qianlong reflected all his love for Yongqi on Princess Yue's body. Even if Princess Yu was over the age of old, Qianlong would still come to her and tell her about her heart. However, at this time, Qianlong was no longer an emperor, but the husband of Concubine Yue and the father of Yong qi.
In the 57th year of Qianlong, the 78-year-old Princess Yu passed away, and Qianlong was extremely sad after hearing the news of her death, and issued 4 edicts to handle the funeral for her. After her death, Princess Yue was posthumously awarded the title of Princess Yu Guifei, second only to Emperor Chunhui's concubine.
Throughout Princess Joy's life, it is both fortunate and sad. Fortunately, she went from being a maid to a spoiled concubine and living a carefree life. Sadly, the death of her son Yongqi made her regret for the rest of her life. Especially in her later years, her life was unusually bleak.
