In fact, the harem of the Qing Dynasty was similar to that of the previous dynasty. It also had a hierarchy. The queen was the mother of a country. She was a phoenix and was considered one of the dragons. This cannot be determined by hierarchy.
Because the queen is the master and the heaven, and those below the queen begin to have grades!
The first rank is the imperial concubine, the second rank is the imperial concubine, the beautiful concubine, the virtuous concubine, the virtuous concubine, etc.
The first-grade concubine is called the wife, the second-grade concubine is called the concubine, and the second-grade concubine is called the noble concubine!
The second-grade concubine is called a concubine!
Concubine, concubine, the concubine that everyone often talks about is actually two grades put together. These are all high-ranking women in the harem, very close to the emperor.
There are even more things going on, such as Zhaoyi, Xiuyi, Guiren, Changzai, Beauty, promise, Xiunu!
And this beautiful girl is the lowest rank in the harem, the tenth rank! When Cixi first entered the palace, she was a showgirl, the lowest level. Now that she can reach this position today, she is already a legend in the harem of the Qing Dynasty!
Counting the queens, there were a total of 31 levels in the harem of the Qing Dynasty. These women were arranged like a pyramid, with strict rules and order!
Logically speaking, these women are considered to be the emperor's women. Of course, the emperor cannot enjoy all these women. For example, the show girls who agree to this type of work are the lowest level, serving tea and serving people. Work.
They couldn't get into the emperor's bed without a romantic relationship. How did Cixi's romantic relationship come about? It was not that she bribed the young eunuch and deliberately sang in the Old Summer Palace to seduce Xianfeng who was visiting Xianfeng when the emperor was around.
It was only after I was lucky that I reached the sky in one step!
This method of upgrading was extremely lucky, because the emperor was very strictly guarded by the high-ranking concubines, and ordinary palace maids would not dare to use this strategy.
A high-ranking concubine can secretly kill this little bitch who doesn't understand the rules!
Therefore, the emperor often visited the concubines, that is, the high-level concubines. Occasionally, the emperor visited those around the level of nobles, and the lower ones were untouchable!
The same goes for Zai Chun. When he got married, he didn't actually marry a queen's wife, he got a group of women!
After every emperor's wedding, he must be equipped with a similar female group. The female group left by the previous emperor who died must be sent away and cannot stay in the harem.
It was a scandal in ancient times for a son to touch his father's woman, even if his father had never touched that woman before.
Zai Chun married the queen alone, but hundreds of harem groups came through the door, and the number could increase at any time!
Zai Chun is very lustful, but even though he is covered in iron, he can’t crush a few nails! Likewise, women in the harem are those who sleep with nobles and move up in rank.
The escape was too hasty this time. Zai Chun only took away the queen and concubines, while leaving all the other concubines in the harem.
There are many noble people here, but the noble people are only in the seventh rank. There are also women of various grades such as Zhaoyi, Xiuyi, Yuerong, Yuehua, etc. in the third and fourth grades.
They are all considered to be Zai Chun's concubines or concubines. Of course, they don't have this name in the palace, but their nature is the same.
What will happen if they can't escape? During the most chaotic period, some of the strong-tempered ones had already committed suicide, and some unruly ones actually escaped with the guards they had planned.
Another group of poor people were even ruined by the rebellious guards and soldiers, and were robbed out of the palace. Of course, these are only a very small number. Most women are frightened and hide in their palaces, trembling and waiting for the unknown fate.
Women in that era didn't have much knowledge. After most of them encountered a catastrophic disaster, their brains would freeze and they would not be able to think at all.
These women were copied out by Yi Xin's eunuchs who were familiar with them, and were imprisoned directly in the Sixth Palace of the West. At this time, no one looked at their grades. It would be dishonest to stuff one room with another one. Those who disobeyed were tied up and gagged.
And these women are all the trophies of Guiziliu!
Yi Xin's family was destroyed by Zai Chun, and more than a thousand of his family members were exiled or even died tragically. How could Guizi Liu have this evil spirit in his heart?
You, Zai Chun, hid in the industrial area and became a coward, while the remaining women became nothing more than a scapegoat!
"Hehehe..." Yi Xin smiled coldly, "Come here... let Zai Tu and Zai Cheng select twenty good-looking people from the Tai Chi Hall..."
"He Zai Chun ruined our woman, and now he has retaliated with retaliation, and his woman will suffer a little! Take her away and enjoy her, no matter life or death!"
"Well... he was killed too... and he will be rewarded to the meritorious officers and soldiers below!"
"Thank you for your grace..." When the two sons heard that they were separated for a woman, they were so happy that they kowtowed to express their gratitude. Under the leadership of the eunuch, they went directly to the harem to snatch Chun's daughter-in-law.
Yi Xin's heart was filled with thoughts at this moment. The eunuchs next to him had been serving him for many years, so he knew what Guizi Liu wanted to write by observing his words and expressions.
"Long live Lord, it's been a long time since I relaxed my muscles and bones... I'm going to select a few of the highest grades and the best-looking ones to send to Lord Long live?"
Yi Xin nodded without saying anything, and the eunuch immediately went down to do it!
At this moment, the Sixth Palace in the West has become a hell. Zai Tu and Zai Cheng smiled gloomily and led a group of strong eunuchs to choose women after opening the door.
At this moment, this place is just an animal market. All women are two-legged animals, so there is no human rights and no dignity for ladies in the harem.
Zai Cheng is a lustful devil, so he naturally has a way of choosing women, and he even shares it with his brother!
"This woman, why don't you check her teeth first...thick lips and white teeth are the best!" He grabbed a noble man and ignored the woman's cries and begged for mercy. He opened his mouth and made a selection like an animal!
"That's right...the white teeth and pink tongue are of the highest quality...Brother, please give me a leather cup!"
"Ah? What is a leather cup?" Zai Tu was indeed not as good as Zai Cheng in this regard and still asked.
"Hahaha...Brother, you didn't know this. This leather cup is used to convey wine with your mouth! This beauty drank the wine and gave it to you with a kiss from her small cherry mouth!"
"Skin and flesh are used as cups. This is called a leather cup...You haven't seen those Han people who are sour and Confucian. They are even more disgusting. They use women's sour three-inch golden lotus shoes as wine glasses to drink..."
"Hahaha...it tastes good, so that's why the wine tastes good!"
With a stabbing sound, Zai Cheng tore open his clothes and looked around in his open arms, "Not bad, not bad... These pigeon breasts are of the highest quality... Brother, do you want them? If not, I'll take them away..."
Humans are no longer human beings, they are just beasts. They even pick them naked in public, just like picking hanging meat in a vegetable market.
The concubine couldn't bear the humiliation and yelled, "Cheng Beile! We are also daughters of good families in the Eight Banners. We are all from the Eight Banners. Why are we so humiliated?"
"You men conquer the world, how can you use our women to show your prestige... With your despicable virtues, you will never be able to secure your position in this life!"
"Sooner or later you will get retribution! Sooner or later you will die without a burial place!"
After saying that, the woman yelled, broke free from the eunuch's hand, rushed towards the yard, hit the white marble railing with a bang, and died tragically on the spot with blood splattering on her forehead!
