The reasons for the longevity of the three concubines in the Qing Dynasty are the same

0:00:09.680,0:00:16.320
Today, let's take a look at what makes them live longer.

0:00:16.320,0:00:22.790
Someone can live long in the harem without fighting because they're invisible

0:00:22.881,0:00:32.339
Invisibility means that there is no sense of existence in the harem, and a low-key life

0:00:32.339,0:00:44.999
Chen Wanyin is the most proficient in applying this rule. In history, Chen Wanyin did not even have a name

0:00:44.999,0:00:55.319
She is not favored and has no children, but the last position is the imperial concubine

0:00:55.319,0:01:04.489
Even after her death, Emperor Jiaqing went to pay homage in front of her coffin. Who can have this honor?

0:01:04.489,0:01:17.949
Her posthumous honor can be traced back to a long time ago. Chen Wanyin had already entered the mansion when Qianlong was still the prince.

0:01:17.949,0:01:27.259
Compared with those who entered the palace at the same time, Concubine Chun already had children.

0:01:27.259,0:01:34.909
The Fucha also had two daughters and a son, but Chen Wanyin did not move at all.

0:01:34.909,0:01:41.119
After Qianlong took the throne, Chen Wanyin and Concubine Yu had the lowest positions.

0:01:41.119,0:01:50.439
The Gao and the Ulanala became concubines , and the Su and Jin Yuyan also became nobles, and only the two of them had the lowest status.

0:01:50.439,0:02:01.636
In the second year, the two of them were promoted to the first level, and they were canonized by the way when Qianlong conferred the harem.

0:02:01.636,0:02:08.496
This year, Chen Wanyin was 21 years old and Concubine Yu was 23 years old, but they chose different survival laws

0:02:08.496,0:02:17.666
Concubine Yu chose to compete for favor, so she gave birth to the fifth prince, Yongqi, and she was promoted smoothly.

0:02:17.666,0:02:23.946
And Chen Wanyin chose to stay in the palace and not go out.

0:02:23.946,0:02:33.546
Everyone was promoted later, but she still didn't move.

0:02:33.546,0:02:37.546
Chen Wanyin is not in a hurry, and has no desire to compete for favor

0:02:37.546,0:02:46.046
Later, after the death of Queen Fucha, Chen Wanyin was promoted to concubine

0:02:46.046,0:02:54.486
We thought she was in a hurry, but she didn't, and she hasn't been promoted for the next 46 years

0:02:54.486,0:03:01.706
On her 40th birthday, the emperor forgot her

0:03:01.706,0:03:15.476
According to the rules of the Qing Dynasty, even if the concubine was not favored, she should give gifts on her birthday, but the emperor completely forgot about her.

0:03:15.476,0:03:18.146
But this isn't her most low-key time yet

0:03:18.146,0:03:27.896
The reasons for the longevity of the three concubines in the Qing Dynasty are the same

0:03:27.896,0:03:35.066
They have a good mentality and can play stealth in the Forbidden City, so they live to the end

0:03:35.066,0:03:44.766
Chen Wanyin doesn't like to play tricks with others, so after the queen has been changed twice, she is still alive and well

0:03:44.766,0:03:53.506
It was not until 40 years after Qianlong's accession to the throne that he remembered that there was still this concubine, who might live longer than him.

0:03:53.506,0:04:03.910
Before Qianlong's Zen throne, all the concubines in the harem were promoted, so 78-year-old Chen Wanying was named a concubine

0:04:03.910,0:04:11.720
After that, Chen Wanying's life got better and better, she was very long-lived, and she was a concubine, no one dared to neglect her

0:04:11.720,0:04:20.010
Later, Qianlong died, but Chen Wanying didn't die, she lived to be 92 years old

0:04:20.010,0:04:27.060
At that time, all the concubines were dead, and there was no queen mother during the Jiaqing period, so Chen Wanying was the oldest in the palace.

0:04:27.060,0:04:35.060
Chen Wanying lived to the end by keeping a low profile, but she is still not as powerful as Duan Fei

0:04:35.060,0:04:44.890
In the play, Concubine Duan relies on Zhen Huan, but in history, she relies on low-key

0:04:44.890,0:04:51.940
In the 42nd year of Kangxi's reign, Geng married Yongzheng and became a concubine after Yongzheng succeeded to the throne.

0:04:51.940,0:04:56.641
However, Yongzheng favored Nian Shilan alone and did not care about her

0:04:56.641,0:05:06.551
But Yongzheng likes to drink,, so after dealing with government affairs, he will come to Concubine Duan

0:05:06.551,0:05:14.061
Yongzheng also liked her child Hong Zhou very much, but instead of recklessly doing things with this love, she kept a low profile.

0:05:14.061,0:05:17.341
It is precisely because of the low profile that the prosperity and wealth of herself and her children are preserved.

0:05:17.341,0:05:27.871
Yongzheng later named Duanfei's child a prince, and Qianlong was also named a prince.

0:05:27.871,0:05:32.111
It can be seen that in Yongzheng's heart, Hong Zhou is still very important.

0:05:32.111,0:05:39.241
Others may have to let their children grab the throne at this time, but Concubine Duan did not let the children do so

0:05:39.241,0:05:48.821
Under the guidance of Concubine Duan, Yongzhou had no intention of taking the throne, so Yongzheng was getting better and better for their mother and son.

0:05:48.821,0:05:56.351
Zhen Huan and the fourth prince saw that they felt that Concubine Duan and her son could get along well

0:05:56.351,0:06:06.171
Concubine Duan saw through the situation in the harem, so she chose not to fight or rob, which proved that she was right

0:06:06.171,0:06:16.131
After Yongzheng's death, Qianlong was also very good to Duanfei's mother and son. Duanfei finally became a noble concubine and lived to the age of 96.

0:06:16.131,0:06:22.909
Another thing I have to mention is Emperor Kangxi's concubine Ding, she is the longest-lived concubine

0:06:22.909,0:06:29.769
Concubine Ding and Yongzheng's mother entered the palace one day, and both of them also had children

0:06:29.769,0:06:35.409
Yongzheng's mother decided to let her child compete for the throne, but Concubine Ding did not do so

0:06:35.409,0:06:46.239
Concubine Ding did not compete for favor and had no enemies. She lived with her children outside the palace and lived to the age of 97.

0:06:46.211,0:07:00.000
these three were very famous, not because of being favored, but because of their longevity, which shows that this harem survival law is very useful
