No one dares to marry a palace maid, no matter how young and beautiful, the reason behind it shocks everyone!

In ancient Chinese royal palaces, maids (maids or maids) were the dominant class because they were the ones responsible for housekeeping, washing, serving tea and taking care of meals. drinking and living for the owner.

In general, the daily work of palace maids is not too heavy or difficult, and they also receive quite good wages and benefits. However, entering the palace means they will lose their freedom and have to stay with the palace for the rest of their lives.

It was not until the Qing Dynasty (China) that palace maids were allowed to leave the palace. However, after leaving the palace, these people often have an unfavorable and unsatisfactory life, especially when it is difficult to get married. So what is the reason?

First: age is too high

Once a concubine was selected to enter the palace, in addition to those who caught the emperor's eye and became concubines, other concubines were sent to become palace maids. Serving in the palace for a long time, before the Qing Dynasty, in other dynasties, unless they were lucky enough to meet the emperor and gain his favor, even if they never met the emperor in their entire life, they would still have to stay in the palace. in the palace as a maid.

It wasn't until the years of King Thuan Tri of the Qing Dynasty that royal concubines of a certain age were released for marriage. During the years when Khang Hi was in power, palace maids who were 30 years old would be allowed to leave the palace, and during Ung Chinh's reign, palace maids who were 25 years old would be allowed to leave the palace. Meanwhile, in ancient times, girls before the age of 15 had to be married, usually around 12-14 when they were married. Wait until these maids are released, it will be 30 already.

Meanwhile, girls of the same age as the palace maids are all married. If they had given birth early, they would have become mothers-in-law. As for these palace maids, who will marry them? Is there any man in the family who can wait until she is 30 years old to marry her?

Second: picky

These maids have served in the palace for many years. They have seen all the wealth of the royal family, have also met many royal princes, seen the seriousness of the guards, and are familiar with the royal brocade and jade robes in the palace. . After being released, how could anyone else catch their eye?

But among the aristocratic princes who can catch their eye, there is no one who is not of the dragon and phoenix lineage. If you want to get married to these people, it's not the turn of these 30-year-old maids? Furthermore, none of these elite guys are over 30 years old and not married. Therefore, these high-ranking maids cannot come, and the short ones do not accept, so it is even more difficult for them to get married.

Third: health reasons

The harem is the place where women gather, wherever there are many women there is a lot of gossip. If they want to stand firmly in the palace, they must always raise their vigilance. Otherwise, I'm afraid I won't be able to endure the torment of death and resurrection here. Every day, in addition to having to work hard, they also have to devote themselves to serving their masters. If their masters are not happy, they will beat and scold them, or even die.

Not only that, they also had to watch at night. Living in such an environment for a long time, they were very lucky to be able to survive. Even if they could live until the day they were released from the palace, most of them had weakened health and suffered many diseases. disability. Already an "old spinster" who has lost the absolute advantage of age, and now has poor health, so who still wants to marry someone like that? In ancient times, it was not mentioned that they were not yet married, and even if they were married, if their bodies got sick, the husband's family would still use that as a reason to leave their wives.

Fourth: fertility problems

In ancient times, because human life expectancy was quite low, it was also a difficult problem for women in their 30s to give birth. Furthermore, they have to live in psychological stress, work hard for long periods of time, their bodies have many diseases, and giving birth is even more difficult. Everyone knows that in ancient China, people extremely valued children. It can be said that children are the hope and continuation of the entire clan. So no matter which house they marry, if they cannot have children, they will be kicked out of the house.

Fifth, the issue of fine customs and traditions

Humans are social animals, and as humans, we will have seven feelings and six desires. After they enter the palace, they are not lucky enough to be liked by the emperor or a noble family, so they can only serve others. If the master is angry, he will scold them and use force. They are also people and have emotions. Sometimes, I also want a shoulder to lean on. But in this harem, besides the king, there are only eunuchs who are men.

Everyone knows that eunuchs are incapable of having sex, but it's better than nothing, so in the palace, there are two types of people with the same fate of serving others who begin to comfort and warm each other's hearts. There were even palace maids and eunuchs who became husband and wife. People always have feelings, in the palace they are just pitiful people, no one can criticize them. But, faced with a woman who had an affair with a eunuch in a feudal society that still had such strict requirements for women, who could bear to marry someone who destroyed good customs like that? to become a wife?

People often say: "Entering the palace is as deep as the sea" but after these palace maids leave the palace, the future is "deeper than the sea". They live alone, struggling in the world. Even if you escape the harem, you will still have to live a miserable life. Perhaps, this is their fate, the moment they step into the royal palace's threshold, their fate is predetermined. This was also the sadness of women at that time.
