Fu Chashi, the Queen of Qianlong, was born on February 22nd in the fifty-first year of Kangxi (17 12). She was born in Manchuria and is a typical aristocratic family. His grandfather Mishan was deeply trusted by Emperor Kangxi. He is an official of the Ministry of Commerce, Minister of State, and involved in secrets. In the early years of Kangxi, Mi, together with Ming Zhu, the minister of war, urged to withdraw from the vassal, and finally eliminated the troubles of the Qing Empire. Li Rongbao, the fourth son of Mishan, is an official in Chahar, and Fu Cha is his beloved daughter. She received a good education from an early age, studied poetry books, and understood the words and deeds of ancient and modern virtuous women. At an early age, she was already quite famous among the noble women of the flag bearer.
In the fifth year of Yongzheng (1727), Li Hong 16 years old has grown into a beautiful boy. Therefore, Yongzheng began to consider his son's lifelong events. After careful observation among the daughters of many relatives and nobles, Yongzheng finally took a fancy to Fu Cha. This is a slim and charming girl. Her eyes are like clean and transparent water, which can be seen at a glance as virtuous; Her voice is euphemistic and fluent, and you will know that Wen Gong is born. Her gait is steady and dignified. Without thinking, she knows that she is a noble family, virtuous and worthy of heaven.
On July 8 this year 16-year-old Li Hong and Focha got married. After the wedding, the husband and wife loved each other deeply. In Li Hong's eyes, Fu Chashi's words and deeds and every move are so charming and lovely, and she is the perfect embodiment. In Fu Chashi's eyes, her husband is so handsome and wise. Although he is the son of heaven, he is considerate and respectful to himself, and a sense of relief that can be relied on for life arises spontaneously. On these sweet days, they either go boating on the lake or stroll in the garden, sometimes joking with young people, sometimes reading ancient and modern books and poems together, and of course touching love and praying for a long life together.
The following October (1728), Fu Cha gave birth to a beautiful little girl for Li Hong. However, only two years later, the girl died unfortunately. In the eighth year of Yongzheng (1730), Fu Chashi gave birth to his son Yong Lian. Yong Lian is a handsome and talented child, and Li Hong's husband and wife like him very much. As a grandfather, Yong Zhengdi also loves this child very much, thinking that he will be a material capable of shouldering the heavy responsibility of the country when he grows up. Yong Zhengdi hinted that Li Hong would be transferred to him in the future, hoping to make Yong Lian the third generation heir. The following year, Fu Cha gave birth to another daughter, namely Gulen and Princess Jing. 15 years later, she married the Mongolian Horqin and Huoshuo Prince Sebuteng Baljul, and became a practitioner of the Manchu-Mongolian marriage policy in the Qing Dynasty. Li Hong and Focha, a young couple, have a pair of lively and lovely children. Their excitement and satisfaction can be imagined.
1735, Yongzheng died, Li Hong succeeded to the throne and became the famous Qianlong emperor, and Fu Cha became the queen. From then on, Fu Cha set an example, advocated frugality, tried his best to assist the emperor and manage the harem. One year, a serious boil grew on Qianlong's body. Fu Cha was worried and took the decoction. When Qianlong recovered from his illness, the doctor said, "The emperor must practice for a hundred days before he can recover." After hearing this, Fu Chashi moved to a small room outside the Qianlong Palace to take care of his daily life. One hundred days later, Qianlong recovered, but Fu Cha lost a lot of weight. During this period, the Qing court was full of warmth and harmony. He is committed to governing the country, rectifying bureaucracy, eliminating abuses, being kind to the people and enjoying high prestige among the people.
However, fate seems to be deliberately against this loving couple. After three years of Qianlong (1738), on October 12th, their beloved son, Yong Lian, who was only nine years old, suddenly developed chills and died immediately. This is an extremely heavy blow to Gan Long and Fu Cha. Queen Fu Cha, the biggest victim of this disaster, was heartbroken when she learned the bad news. How many times, she hugged Joule in her dream, but woke up empty-handed, only Lacrimosa. The next day, when she went to see Empress Dowager Cixi and Gan Long, she had to put on a smiling face. She doesn't want the grief of losing her child to affect the mood of her mother and husband too much. In this way, 78 years passed quickly.
The first person to notice the change of Focha's family is the Empress Dowager, because she is also a woman. As a mother, out of love for Ganlong, she almost effortlessly felt the impact of Yong Lian's early death on Focha. Sadly, she saw that Focha's family had changed, without the innocent laughter of the past, and her thin face had lost its luster of the past, always implying endless sadness, and her body was getting weaker every day. I'm really afraid that something will happen to her one day.
In the summer of ten years of Qianlong (1745), Fu Cha became pregnant again. This is a great event for Fu Chashi. Touching the baby in her belly made her feel very happy. The following year, Fu Cha gave birth to a strong baby boy. The baby was born on the day when the Buddha was born. Heaven is beautiful, and the rain pours on all people. The Qianlong couple regarded it as a good omen and were very happy. Even the ministers and concubines were very happy and celebrated. Gan Long racked his brains to name the child Yong Cong, and has made him a prince in his heart.
However, fate is so unfair. When Yong Cong was just one year old and eight months old, he died of acne on New Year's Eve. This blow completely destroyed Fucha. Life is a nightmare and a disaster for her. In eight years, two children lost their loved ones, and three of the four children born before and after died, which is an unbearable blow to any mother. She was in pain without tears. She is too sad to feel the joy of life.
Looking at the queen's rapidly weakening body, a sense of foreboding suddenly appeared in Gan Long's heart. In order to alleviate the grief of losing the queen's son, in the 13th year of Qianlong (1748), Qianlong took the Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager and others on the journey to the east. During the tour, the queen seemed to be in high spirits. Sometimes she goes to greet the Queen Mother, and sometimes she whispers and chats with the Emperor. The gloom on her face is much less than when she was in the capital. As a matter of fact, Fu Chashi's excitement and interest are just to not disappoint Gan Long and the Empress Dowager, and her inner sadness remains the same, growing day by day. When she passed by rural towns and saw the children of ordinary people playing alive, her heart ached. In late spring in Shandong, it was sunny and rainy at first, and the temperature was uncertain. Accustomed to the cold and dry climate in the north, Fu Cha began to feel uncomfortable. When the doctor diagnosed a cold, Gan Long immediately ordered to postpone her return to Jinan and let her rest for a few days. However, Fu Cha's family doesn't want everyone to stay in other places for a long time because of themselves, and they don't want the Queen Mother to worry too much about her health. Therefore, when his illness eased slightly, Fu Chashi braced himself and told Gan Long that he could go to Beijing.
Fu Cha was too weak, so sad and tired during the journey that she couldn't resist the attack of the disease. On April 8, Focha's condition suddenly deteriorated, and the panicked Ganlong ordered him to be carried to the royal ship quickly, and a good doctor was mobilized for consultation. At this time, the accompanying kings and ministers also got the news and came to offer their condolences. However, it is too late. Focha, who is terminally ill, is dying. At midnight, he died suddenly, only three months before Yongcong died.
For a long time after Focha's death, Gan Long was completely immersed in great grief. In order to express his grief, Qianlong collected all the clothes and wallets made by Fu Chashi, and passed them on from generation to generation, calling posthumous title "filial piety". From then on, Fu Chashi was the filial piety queen.
