In a recently popular TV series "Lonely Empty Court Spring Evening", a love between Kangxi and Liangfei made many people envious, so is there a good concubine in history? If so, was she Kangxi's concubine?
In the "Complete Biography of Kangxi", during Kangxi's reign, there were as many as 67 concubines who were given names alone, including 4 empresses, 3 imperial concubines, 1 noble concubine, and 11 concubines. Among the 11 concubines of the Kangxi Dynasty, there was indeed a concubine named Liangfei Weishi, who was one of the five concubines.
The concubine in the TV series is from a humble origin, is a palace girl, and was discovered by the emperor by chance, and the emperor fell in love with him at first sight, and then there was a series of love stories later. So what is the origin of the real concubine? How did she become a harem?
Regarding the origin of the concubine, there are clear records in the historical records. The history book "Xingyuan Jiqing" records: "Liangfei Weishi, the daughter of the inner pipe leader Abu Nai, was born in Xinzhiku. "XinZhiku, translated into Chinese, is a cloaked pipe collar, and is a domestic slave of the royal family.
Concubine Liang's father, Abu Nai, was originally a prince, but was later stripped of the throne by Kangxi and imprisoned for years of abject hajj. Later, Abu Nai's son, The brother of Concubine Liang, launched a rebellion in order to save his father, and was put down by Kangxi. Soon, Abu Nai was hanged, and concubine Liang was thrown into the palace as a palace maid.
Therefore, the concubine is actually the daughter of a sinner.
As we all know, the court system of the Qing Dynasty was very strict, and it was almost impossible for the emperor to look at the palace women. But it was in this situation that Liangfei Weishi was discovered by Kangxi. There are three reasons for this:
First, Wei's luck was relatively good, and he was assigned to the palace of Empress Xiaoyi, who was notoriously virtuous, and she often recommended beautiful palace women to Kangxi, for which she was also praised by Kangxi.
Second, Wei Shi can be favored by the emperor, indicating that she must have a unique place. The "Secret History of the Thirteen Dynasties Palace of the Qing Dynasty" written by the old man of Yanbei described Liangfei as follows: "The beautiful crown of the palace, the pampering is incomparable, and the body has a different fragrance, it cannot be washed, and the saliva also contains fragrant breath." ”
Third, the timing of Wei's meeting kangxi was just right, when Kangxi's first empress, Herschel, had died three years ago, kangxi had already walked out of that relationship, and at this time, he just met Wei shi, fell in love at first sight, and immediately sealed a concubine.
Kangxi loved Jiangshan all his life, and he also loved beauty, and his harem can be said to be beautiful as a cloud. However, compared with other emperors, Kangxi was very dedicated.
On December 19, 1950 of the Kangxi Dynasty, Kangxi was going to Xiaoling to worship his father, when the news came that Liangfei had died, and he immediately rushed back, changed into a seated robe and went to the spiritual hall to worship Liangfei. Liangfei was one of the very few concubines who were worshipped by Kangxi after his death, and from this it can be seen that Kangxi had a deep affection for Liangfei.
Kangxi's five concubines all died in front of him, and his tributes to them were different, only three of them received eulogies he wrote, and Concubine Liang received two eulogies, which was very rare in the palaces of the Qing Dynasty.
Judging from the experience of Liangfei in this life, the Kangxi Emperor has always loved her, and more scholars believe that Kangxi's favorite concubine in life is Liangfei.
