Imperial Noble Consort Qing Gong
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Imperial Noble Consort Qing Gong (Chinese: 庆恭皇贵妃陆氏), (1724 - 1774), was an Imperial Consort of the Qianlong Emperor of China, and came from the Lu clan.
Lady Lu entered the imperial court around the first year of Qianlong's reign, and was given the title Worthy Lady Lu. During the sixth year of Qianlong's reign, Worthy Lady Lu was elevated to an Imperial Concubine with the title of Qing, and during the fourteenth year of Qianlong's reign, she was promoted to a consort. Nineteen years later, during the thirty-third year of Emperor Qianlong's reign, she was elevated to the rank of a Noble Consort. She died during the thirty-ninth year of Qianlong's reign, aged 50. Because the next emperor, Jiaqing Emperor has been raised by Noble Consort Qing, she was posthumously given the title of 'Imperial Noble Consort Qing Gong.
