The general named her Chen Fei after the Queen Mother. What was ancient Chen Fei?

The TV series "General" has been broadcast since its global launch. Most people know that the emperor was not born of the Queen Mother. So who is the general's biological mother? According to legend, Qin Shihuang's biological mother was Li Cairen, who was seriously ill, and Chen Fei, who was later chased by the Queen Mother. But the emperor always thought that the queen mother was his biological mother.

This is a title in the harem, because the word "Chen" is used to refer to the palace and harmony, so it is a noble title, and not many concubines have been awarded this title in history. There are about eight concubines in history, the most famous of which are Qing Dynasty and Chen Concubine Hailanzhu.

What does Chen Fei mean?

This is the name of the concubines in Chen Fei's harem. It is said that the name Chen Fei originated from Wu Zetian. At that time, Li Zhi loved Wu Zetian very much and wanted Wu Zetian's position in the harem to get more respect, just like letting her be a concubine. But at that time, the queen had only four concubines, which were full, and it was not easy to change people casually. So I thought of adding a "Chen Fei" to show my love for Wu Zetian, which also shows that Wu Zetian's position is above those concubines.

Since ancient times, "Chen" has been used to refer to the North Star, and it is also often used to refer to the emperor himself. Therefore, when such a title was applied to concubines, it was opposed by many ministers at that time, so this practice was ultimately unsuccessful, and Wu Zetian was not named Chen Fei. Only after the Song Dynasty, there was a concubine named Chen Fei.

It can be said that Chen Fei is a title with a very high status in the ancient harem of China, second only to the title of queen and imperial concubine, and most of those named Chen Fei are extremely favored concubines, which is the embodiment of the emperor's love.

Which women were named Chen Fei in history?

In the history of China, there are not many women named after Chen Fei. Compared with the appellations of Shu Fei and Xianfei, which existed in almost all dynasties, Chen Fei's appellation has only been used by a few women since it was put forward.

The first person to be awarded the title of Chen Fei was Li Chenfei, the concubine of Song Zhenzong in Song Dynasty. In the famous story of "Civet cats for princes" in history, it was Li Fei who was robbed of his own son. Although she was the birth mother of the Emperor, Li Chenfei never made it public and worked hard. It was not until the death of the nominal biological mother, Queen Liu, that this fact was revealed and was established as the Empress Dowager.

Later, several Chen Fei appeared intermittently, but they were unknown. Prior to this, Chen Fei, the famous star of Huang Taiji in Qing Dynasty, and Chen Fei of Huang Taiji were the famous Hailanzhu in history. Chen Fei was deeply loved by Huang Taiji, ranking second only to the queen in the harem, and was the most favored concubine at that time. Later, Chen Fei died young, without too many teenagers, and the love story between her and Huang Taiji has been circulating.

This is the title of a senior imperial concubine in Chen Fei's ancient harem. 3 158 At the beginning of the virtual video, Tang Gaozong used it to reward Wu Zetian. Only because of the obstruction of ministers, Wu Zetian finally failed to accept this title. Later, some concubines were named Chen Fei, the most famous of which were Li Chenfei of Song Zhenzong and Chen Fei of Huang Taiji.
