Having 5 children, only one son survived; the son became emperor, but she was not the empress! She was the emperor's biological mother, but she did not have the name of empress dowager, and was given the title of "Emperor Bunsheng Concubine" after her death!
It is said that if a woman marries a good family, she will be happy for a lifetime. In fact, this is not absolute, during the Xianfeng period of the Qing Dynasty, there was an ordinary official eunuch daughter, with her beautiful appearance and gentle temperament, married into the royal palace at the age of 15 and became a concubine Fujin. After marriage, the two had a very good relationship, and she had 4 sons and 1 daughter successively. Unfortunately, 4 of the 5 children died one after another, the shortest surviving was only one day, and the rest did not live past 5 years old.
And her only surviving son, when she was only 3 years old, was forcibly carried into the palace, and since then mother and son cannot kiss each other. People often say that "a mother is precious by virtue of her son", but although her son became emperor, he did not have the title of empress dowager in his life. Because of the pain of losing a son (daughter) one after another, he finally died of depression... This unfortunate princess was the original concubine of the then King of alcohol, Ai Xinjue Luo Yizhen,Yehnaara Wanzhen (hereinafter referred to as Wanzhen).

Wan zhen is the daughter of Yehenara Huizheng. Huizheng's full name is Yehenara Huizheng, a Manchurian blue flag man (belonging to the Lower Five Banners), born as a prisoner, who has long served as a pen-and-paste (text secretary) in the bureaucracy, and because of his outstanding performance, he served in Beijing for nearly 20 years before being released as a Daotai. As the daughter of the Qi family, when she became an adult, she had to participate in the draft, and was selected by the emperor to marry freely. When Wanzhen was 15 years old, she also participated in the draft of the Xianfeng Emperor, but for some reason, Wanzhen eventually failed.
Although Wanzhen was not defeated by others in the draft, she was not directly returned to her father's family, but was selected as a woman who was transferred to the prince. In the ninth year of Xianfeng (1859 AD), the 18-year-old Wanzhen married the seventh son of the Daoguang Emperor and the half-brother of the Xianfeng Emperor, Ai Xinjueluo Yizhen. Yi Zhen was only one year older than Wan Zhen, and after the Xianfeng Emperor ascended the throne, Yi Zhen, who was only 10 years old, was given the title of King of Alcohol County. At that time, although YiZhen was a prince, he did not have a real position, so he lived a comfortable and leisurely life. After a couple gets married, it is like glue like lacquer, sweet love, and ordinary people's children. "Emperor Bunsen"

It is said that a woman who has been a mother is a truly happy woman. According to this statement, Wanzhen is happy because she was once a mother of 5 children. At the age of 20, Wanzhen became a mother for the first time, and she added a daughter to Yizhen. Regrettably, this daughter has not yet had time to be named (manchus also have a patriarchal custom, so it is normal for girls to be born for a long time without a name), and unfortunately died, less than 5 years old.
The daughter died early, which made Wanzhen's heart ache like a cut, fortunately, there was a lively and lovely young son around her, who could soothe a mother's heart. It turned out that on the sixth day of the first lunar month of the year when her daughter was 4 years old, Wanzhen gave birth to the eldest son, Ai Xin Jueluo Zaihan, for Wang Yizhen of Alcohol County. However, Zaihan was only half a month after the death of his sister, and he also left his mother, only 1 year old.
On June 28, 10th year of Tongzhi, five years after the loss of her son, Wanzhen, who was already 30 years old, gave birth to a second son for Yizhen, Ai Xinjue Luo Zaixiang. Unlike her sister and brother, Zai Xiang's vitality is very tenacious, so she becomes the only survivor among the children born to Wanzhen.
Subsequently, at the age of 34 and 39, Wanzhen gave birth to two sons for the King of Alcohol County, of which the third son was born on the eighth day of the first month of the first month of the first year of Guangxu, and died at noon on the ninth day of the first month. The fourth son, Aisin Kyora Zaihu, who was born in the sixth year of Guangxu, did not live past the age of 4.

However, even the lovely son Zai Xiang, Wan Zhen was not able to keep it in the end. It was none other than her own sister Yehenara Xingzhen (hereinafter referred to as Xingzhen) who snatched Wanzhen's son. Xingzhen is 6 years older than Wanzhen, and similar to Wanzhen's fate, Xingzhen was also forced to participate in the emperor's draft at the age of 17, and unlike Wanzhen's fate, Xingzhen won out of thousands of show girls and became the woman of the Xianfeng Emperor, and was given the title lan guiren.
Xingzhen looks cute and will also come to things, so he is deeply liked by the Xianfeng Emperor, and after entering the palace, he has been promoted consecutively: at the age of 19, he was promoted to Concubine Yi, at the age of 21, he was promoted to Concubine Yi, and at the age of 22, he was promoted to Concubine Yi.
The reason why Xingzhen was able to capture Xianfeng's dragon heart, in addition to her beautiful attendance, she also made a practical contribution to Xianfeng - giving birth to the only prince of Xianfeng Emperor, Ai Xinjueluo Zaichun. Zaichun was the later Tongzhi Emperor, and Xingzhen was empress dowager Cixi, who later influenced the Qing dynasty for decades.
On the fifth day of the first month of December in the thirteenth year of Tongzhi, the Tongzhi Emperor Zaichun, who had been pro-government for just one year, died at the age of 19. When the Tongzhi Emperor died, he did not leave any children. Moreover, The Tongzhi Emperor was the only son of the Xianfeng Emperor, and after his death, the Xianfeng lineage was also extinct. In order to control the situation, Cixi decided to choose a young child as a "puppet", and for the first time, she thought of her sister's own son Zai Xiang - fat water does not fall into the fields of outsiders, such a good thing that kills two birds with one stone, who wants to miss it? Therefore, Zai Xiang, who was more than 3 years old at the time, was taken away from Wanzhen by Empress Dowager Cixi and carried into the Forbidden City with eight large sedans. Under the auspices of Cixi, Zai Xiang was passed on to the Xianfeng Emperor and thus ascended the throne as emperor for the Guangxu Emperor.

It is said that once you enter the Houmen, it is as deep as the sea, let alone the imperial palace. Although Zai Xiang was an emperor, he did not have personal freedom, especially when he was young and not more, and everything was controlled by his aunt Empress Dowager Cixi, and it was impossible to go out of the palace to see his mother.
Although Wanzhen was eager to see her son, it was difficult for her to ascend to heaven if she wanted to see her own son. Her own son has now become the emperor, and her identity is only Prince Fujin, even if she sees it, she must pray three times and nine times, and there can be no happiness of ordinary people and mothers getting together! At this time, Yi Zhen's two side Fu Jin frequently produced heirs, and their status sprung up like mushrooms, and Wanzhen's status in Wang Ye's heart also plummeted.
The fall of favor in the royal palace, coupled with Zai Xiang's entry into the palace and the premature death of the other three sons and one daughter, caused Wanzhen to be greatly shocked, and her spirit was devastated, and depression became a disease. After more than twenty years of struggling and thinking, Wanzhen finally couldn't hold on. It was not until Wanzhen was critically ill that Cixi ordered her to visit her son Zai Xiang, who was thinking of twilight. Wanzhen saw her son, and even if she had a thousand words, she couldn't say it for a long time, but just looked at this only son in shock. After seeing her son, Wan Zhen died of illness on the seventh day of the first month of May in the twenty-second year of Guangxu (June 17, 1896), and from then on, everything in this world was no longer worried.
After Wanzhen's death, the Guangxu Emperor quit the dynasty on the 11th, calling Wanzhen "Emperor Bunsheng Concubine". Although Wanzhen was the birth mother of the Guangxu Emperor, she never had the name of empress dowager, and her final honor was only "Emperor Bunsheng Concubine". This woman who lives in "riches" has actually been miserable and helpless all her life, and she is bitter and bitter, which outsiders cannot understand.
