The Chinese emperor and his sad 'love stories' mark history

In China - a country with kings with many beautiful concubines - there also used to be same-sex love stories. Since the Spring and Autumn - Warring States period, when it was as prosperous as the Han Dynasty, gay love affairs of emperors became more and more common.

According to the records of the Annals of History and the Book of Han, the earliest histories in Chinese history, out of the 25 Emperors of the Western Han Dynasty, up to 10 had the phenomenon of "liking men". From the Han Dynasty onwards, the number of gay Emperors decreased but did not completely disappear. Even Qianlong, the king considered the "ten perfect" and the "great emperor" of the Qing Dynasty, also had a scandalou.s love affair with a homosexual.

There are mainly two types of gay lovers of gods. One type is the servants in the harem who possess a beautiful face that makes the Emperor look good, including the guards and eunuchs. Another type are those with "beauty" who live outside the Emperor's harem. This type ranges from high-ranking mandarins in the court to handsome, "beautiful" teenagers living in the capital.

Another special type are the friends who have been "loyal" to the Emperor since his childhood, who were the Emperor's favorite friends in his youth, until the Emperor ascended the throne and became the new ruler of the world. begin to fulfill a wish from a long time ago. However, regardless of "what type" of origin, the Emperors' gay lovers almost never had a happy ending.

Ve Linh Cong "offered his son" to his wife

Duke Wei Ling (? - 493 BC) was the king of Wei, famous for his love affair known to the people as "divine love". Ve Linh Cong once believed in love with Di Tu Ha - a handsome and handsome young man who was appointed a doctor.

Legend has it that Ve Linh Cong is famous as a unique king in Chinese history thanks to the incident of "offering a son to his wife". Even though he knew about his wife Nam Tu's love affair with Prince Trieu, Cong Ve Linh still tolerated and assisted to the point of summoning Prince Trieu to the palace to conveniently serve his wife. However, according to some documents, the reason why Ve Linh Cong took this unusual action was because the king of Ve had feelings for the prince of Trieu.

In addition to having feelings for Prince Trieu, the "love affairs" recorded in the history of Ve Linh Cong also included a man named Di Tu Ha. Di Tu Ha was originally a Confucian scholar with an extremely handsome appearance, so he quickly caught the "eye" of Ve Linh Cong. Therefore, Ve Linh Cong quickly summoned Di Tu Ha to the palace to stay with him and tried to pamper this man.

Many documents say that because of Du Tu Ha, Cong Ve Linh could ignore all the rules in the palace just to please his "lover".

Later, when the relationship cooled, Du Tu Ha was kicked out of the palace and Ve Linh Cong became infatuated with his wife's lover. Therefore, Duke Ve Linh gave the young man Trieu the privilege of regularly entering and leaving the palace. Later, after the riot ended, Duke Ve Linh continued to welcome Prince Trieu and his wife back with him, even though he knew that they had run away together.

"Great Emperor" Qianlong fell in love with the great minister Hoa Than

When talking about Emperor Qianlong, people often call him "the great emperor" - the most famous king of China's last dynasty. He had more than 60 years of reign, possessing countless beauties from queens, concubines, and noblemen, but he also had a homosexual love affair with the great mandarin Hoa Than.

The story begins during the reign of Emperor Yongzheng. Ung Chinh has a concubine with an extremely beautiful appearance. When Qian Long was 15 years old, he entered the palace to take care of business and was next to this concubine. Looking at the concubine combing her hair, Can Long couldn't help but cover his eyes from behind to teas.e him.

The concubine did not know that it was the crown prince, so he swung the comb back and hit Qianlong in the face. When the queen mother saw a red mark on Qianlong's face and heard the truth, she suspected that the concubine was planning to toy with the crown prince and immediately gave her deat.h.

Seeing this, Qian Long cried loudly, used a finger dyed red to rub on the concubine's neck and said: "It's because I kille.d you. If your soul is sacred, we will meet again twenty years later."

During the reign of Qianlong, Hoa Than came from a Manchu official training school and entered the palace to hold the position of Loan Nghi Ve, whose job was to carry palanquins.

One day, Qianlong wanted to go out. In his haste to find the golden parasol, Can Long asked: "Whose fault is this?" Hoa Than hastily said: "The person who keeps the ritual cannot avoid responsibility." Hearing Hoa Than's voice and looking at Hoa Than, Can Long felt very familiar as if he had seen her somewhere before.

After returning to the palace, remembering the events when he was a chil.d, he suddenly felt that Hoa Than and the concubine who died because he died in the past had very similar appearances. The king secretly called Hoa Than into the palace, looked carefully at his neck and discovered a finger mark. Qianlong believed that Hoa Than was the reincarnation of the previous concubine, and from then on, he favored Hoa Than very much.

Being loved by the king, Hoa Than's career path rose like a wind. From a palanquin bearer, he was promoted to the position of Prime Minister. Originally a cunning and greed.y person, Hoa Than quickly became the richest man under the Qianlong dynasty.
