After the Manchu Dynasty entered the Pass, Qianlong was the fourth emperor of the Qing Dynasty. In front were Shunzhi, Kangxi, and Yongzheng. It can be said that they were “prosperous times” until the Qianlong dynasty. However, each emperor in the Aixinjueluo family had different personalities. Some people say that Emperor Shunzhi dominated only concubine Dong E, which was a standard love; Kangxi had many children and grandchildren, and he defended the openness of the entire town; Yongzheng had few concubines and was a workaholic; but Qianlong was a famous “romantic lover” in history. “She’s like the famous ‘Fragrance Concubine’ (also known as Concubine Rong). Even in her sixties, Qianlong still pampered the young women of the harem, who can be said to be old and strong. Among them, the” Concubine Dun “of Qianlong’s later years was envious of many concubines, because they gave birth to their daughters and their mothers depended on their daughters, who enjoyed the reward of the Qianlong” cucumber “.

It is understood that the “Dun Fei” Wang was born in Zhengbaiqi, Manzhou, and his father was the Minister of Internal Affairs Sige. In Qianlong Year 28, 17-year-old Wang entered the palace and was named forever. At that time, Qianlong was already 52 years old, but at first, Wang did not receive Qianlong’s special treatment in the harem with many concubines. The period of ups and downs has been of ups and downs for 8 years, since Changzai, nobles, etc. It was only after the low-ranking team was given the title to receive the title “Tun La” when Qianlong was 36 and 25 years old. Three years later, the humble “Tun Bing” started up the road. At that moment, Qianlong brought his concubine to Rehe. 28-year-old “Tun Bing” was diagnosed as pregnant. At that time, Qianlong was 63 years old in the sixties. Qianlong was so happy to be so old, and immediately named “Dun Fu” after “Dun Fei”.

The following year, in Qianlong 40th year, “Princess Dun” gave birth to Qianlong’s tenth daughter, who was later known as “Princess Gulun and Xiao Xiao”. Because Qianlong loved Princess He Xiao, “Princess Dun’s” momentum also increased and the rewards continued. There is a wild story. It is said that on a certain winter day, Qianlong ordered people to reward “Concubine Dun” with two cucumbers. The concubine of the harem was envied by the concubines. There are two reasons for this. One is that these cucumbers were on the Tour of the South. Specially brought from Jiangnan water village, so the number is not large. After deducting the expenses of the emperor, the queen mother, etc., the “Concubine Dun” was rewarded with two, which shows that she is a legitimate favorite; Another way is that you are in Beijing. In the Forbidden City, there is a lot of snow and a lot of cold in winter. Vegetables and fruits are hard to see. There is a “warm shed” for the emperor in the palace. The charcoal fire is used to control the temperature and some summer vegetables are grown for the emperor to enjoy, but the charcoal fire is consumed throughout the winter. Because it is too expensive, only the emperor and queen mother can enjoy it, so eating cucumbers in winter is quite luxurious.

Although the above is unofficial story, did Qianlong reward the cucumber “Concubine Dun”? It is unknown, but what is certain is that “Concubine Dun” was highly favored at the time, but unfortunately, “Concubine Dunn” became arrogant after being favored. In Qianlong Year 43, “Concubine Dun” was demoted for beating a court lady to death and was demoted. He was fined by Qianlong and paid to the parents of the deceased court lady. Although “Dun Bian” was re-designated as “Concubine Tun Bian” two years later, the Emperor’s grace was already as yellow as yesterday. Gone forever, and even the emperor cut “Dun Fei’s” birthday reward in half. “Concubine Dun” lived until Emperor Jiaqing came to power, and died in Jiaqing 11 years, at the age of 60, and was buried in the Yuling Concubine Garden of the Eastern Tomb of the Qing Dynasty.
