Many of the Emperor's concubines, despite being healthy, could not bear children, the truth behind is too painful

In ancient times, the vast majority of girls wished to become the Emperor's concubine. So many people have to compete with each other to get to the bow. However, not everyone succeeds in making dreams come true.

In Chinese feudal history, the women in the harem were all precious mothers (a mother's wealth depends on her children) because many people think that having a concubine without children seems to have lost her support. However, there were many concubines who were unable to have children, which was quite strange at the time.

Many people believe that the main reason why concubines are unlikely to get pregnant is due to the conspiracy between hundreds of women in the palace.

In the minds of many people, in order to defeat their opponents, the harem concubines will use all means to poison, lure or cause other concubines to miscarry or give birth prematurely.

But the reality is that not too many such plots are carried out successfully, because any dynasty's harem is very tightly controlled.

But why, after becoming the king's women, they are no longer able to reproduce?

There are three main reasons for this. And the Emperor is the one who decides whether the concubine can get pregnant or not.

First of all, there is a fact that there is only one emperor in the palace, but there are many concubines.

For example, in the Qing Dynasty, every night after the emperor had a meal, he would turn over a card and decide which princess would serve the emperor that day.

Also because of this "mechanism", the concubines in the harem began to act, bribing the eunuch of the Honor room so that they put their cards in a prominent position, so the possibility of being chosen would be higher.

For the concubines who do not accept bribes, they don't even have cards, how can there be a chance to have the emperor flip the cards?

There are many concubines and beauties who live their whole lives in the palace but have never been chosen by the king to "prepare", some people are lucky to serve the emperor once, but that is not enough to get pregnant.

No chance to get pregnant means no chance to get pregnant. So these concubines can't have children all their lives, even until they die, they are still virgins.

The second reason was that the emperor himself did not want his concubine to become pregnant.

In ancient times, there were many marriages for the purpose of friendship and friendship. Daughters of ethnic minorities entered the palace, becoming the emperor's concubine.

Most of their background could not reassure the emperor, so the emperor did not want them to become pregnant.

If he did not want his concubine to be pregnant with a dragon, the emperor would order the eunuch to perform a series of actions.

They will press an acupuncture point on the concubine's buttocks, then repeatedly press on the abdomen to let the semen flow out, limiting the chances of pregnancy. In some cases, the emperor can give birth control pills to his concubine who has just "imposed".

The reason the Emperor had to do this was to avoid disputes in the harem. Because a pregnant concubine will be more favored by the emperor, if a son can be crowned as a prince, on the list of the king's successors, the mother also relies on her son to raise her position.

In addition, a number of concubines were selected to join the palace to strengthen the influence of many clans.

For this reason, the Emperor would decide who would be allowed and who wouldn't be allowed to have dragons, and so on, fewer and fewer concubines in the palace would be able to conceive.

In addition, some concubines are unable to bear children because of their own bodies. No matter how much favor the emperor has, it can't bear fruit, can only give up desire.

It can be seen that the concubines in the harem cannot bear children, because of both objective and subjective factors.

Although their wishes mostly come from the race for favor and glory for their mother, they are still the most pitiful people in the end, because at the end of their lives they still can't know boundless happiness, That is having children, not feeling the warm family love.

In a feudal society, being the queen's woman was a glorious thing. But behind that glory are the bonds of joy, clamping down on the freedom and happiness of women.

Their lives revolve around the desire to have a baby. The emperor is happy, they are also happy because of that. The emperor died, maybe they also died because of that. Is this true marital happiness?

Living in today's society, where men and women are equal, fortunately women can do what they want, freely follow their dreams without the shackles of the tyranny, have More choices for your happy life.
