Why do most Qinggege have no children?

When it comes to Gege, our first reaction may be "Princess Zhu Huan". After all, we used to play in turns every winter and summer vacation. Even if a new version was published later, the old version of "you are the wind and I am the sand" and "the mountain is perfect and the world is perfect" is still vivid. So can the real Gege in history live so smartly?

If you look through the historical materials about the harem in Qing Dynasty, you will find a phenomenon. Gege in Qing Dynasty seldom gave birth to children, and most of them died of depression. Why? Some people may think that the TV series Princess Zhu Huan is not the Princess Gege of the Qing Dynasty at all. They can fall in love freely and see Xu every day.

Gege in Qing Dynasty was more of a tool for fathers to fight for power and profit. It is difficult for them to see their husbands at ordinary times, and even if they do, it is difficult to share a bed with Xu. Why is there such a wonderful phenomenon in the Qing Dynasty that even ordinary people seem to be above space, they can't do whatever they want?

As the saying goes, "love is like buying shoes, only the feet know whether it is suitable or not." Only the parties know whether Gege is happy after marriage, but it is strange that they are all in good health, but most of them have no children of their own, and they are adopted from others. Why? One of the most important problems is probably the wet nurse.

The wet nurse mentioned here is not an ordinary wet nurse, and generally does not have this professional qualification. Moreover, there was a very strange rule in the Qing Dynasty that after Gege married Xu, husband and wife could not share the same room. If it is necessary to have sex, they must apply orally with the wet nurse, and both parties agree.

Because I can't meet Xu for a long time, this not only reduces the chances of Gege having children, but also makes many Gege suffer from lovesickness in the deep palace compound. As a result, many Gege died of depression. How can these gege live without children? Many geeks thought of a way to adopt a child and put themselves to death.

According to authoritative historical records, after the Qing dynasty entered the customs, the fate of countless gege was similar to that described above. Of course, some of them can get special care. For example, Daoguang's eldest brother got the chance to get along with Fu Zhen and his wife, and they finally had eight children.
