The imperial women’s life after the emperor passed away in Qing dynasty

[@MandaLynn8]

That brought a lot of clarity. I feel so sorry for the women left with nothing.

The dramas seem to only give little tid bits of information. I am so glad this is here to tell me more :)

[@ancientchinesehistorychannel]

😀Glad it was helpful!

Thank you so much, Ms. Bing! I'm sure, apart from me, many of us also asked these questions so often but can't find clear answers on the internet.

😀🥰You are so welcome!

There's so much of information here that I never got from any of the serials. You are so right when you said serials are just entertainment. I'm so grateful that you are teaching about the reality of the Qing dynasty and the Forbidden City. Thank you so much for this. Is a consort dowager superior to the consort of a current emperor? And is a widowed consort who is not promoted to dowager lower in rank than a consort dowager?

[@mysticdragon2101]

From what I know, since the Consort Dowager has seniority over the current consort, this means the consort must show the consort Dowager respect (even though the current consort is more "relevant" to the affairs of the palace).

@@mysticdragon2101 That makes a lot of sense since they were with the late Emperor.

I would love a video on what happened with the Crown Prince and his women after an Emperor died I have seen plenty of videos of the harems themselves after the fact but what happens in that moment of transition between Crown Prince and Emperor and Crown Princess and empress it does the empress immediately take that title or do they wait till her conferment ceremony I would love to again see a video on this this was such an interesting look at what happens to the emperor's women after he dies

[@gintasasd]

Could you do video about korean consorts or Japan is consorts it would be interesting to see deference between china japan and korean consorts /emperess

[@ancientchinesehistorychannel]

I don’t know the Korean and Japanese consorts vey much. Besides, my knowledge of some Korean and Japanese imperial women are from Chinese books. I don’t have confidence that I can give you the accurate information about them. 😭

[@gintasasd]

@@ancientchinesehistorychannel from what i remember Japan's harem women where most in to politics compared to China's and korean consorts

[@ancientchinesehistorychannel]

If you are interested in Japanese inner court, I recommend you read the book “The Tale of Genji”. 😀

[@gintasasd]

@@ancientchinesehistorychannel o thank you i will definitely read it i want to see defences in east Asian royal harems because European palaces are very similar haha

[@kellyrooni]

Thank you, so much for all the research and information you are sharing. I do have a question. In Ruyi's palace, I notice the emperor has a female attendant. She seems to be very trusted. Is this true? Also, if it is, what was her title and any other information you have about this position would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

[@Godhelpus62]

I’m not sure where I read this but I heard many lower ranking consorts were sent to live as nuns after the emperor died. Is this true?

[@ancientchinesehistorychannel]

In Tang dynasty

[@josephtheemodel-rx8fp]

That's Tang dynasty time but this is Qing dynasty

[@Nalon1984]

Good to know that not all formel imperial Woman must living in the Forbiddden City until her Death. :) Also i were start to Living in the Summer Palce. But i have a Question about this Part that ther woman can living with thier Sons. Could thier Woman living with her Daughters, too?

[@ancientchinesehistorychannel]

Most time no. After married, girls were considered the family member of her husband’s family.

[@Nalon1984]
