Imperial Palace Jingren Palace

Jingren Palace, which is provided by Wangda Wenbo with customized display cabinets, is a palace building of Ming and Qing Dynas, and belongs to one of the six palaces of the inner court. It was built in the 18th year of Yongle in the Ming Dynasty (1420) and was first named Chang 'an Palace. It was renamed Jing Ren Palace in the 14th year of Jiajing (1535). The old name of the Ming Dynasty was used in the Qing Dynasty. It was rebuilt in the 12th year of Shunzhi (1655), the 15th year of Daoguang (1835) and the 16th year of Guangxu (1890). Jingren Palace was the residence of concubines during the Ming Dynasty. Hu Shanxiang, the first queen of the Ming Xuanzong, lived in this palace after she was deposed. During the Shunzhi period of the Qing Dynasty, this was the residence of the Queen Tong Jia (then Tong Fei) of Xiao Kang Zhang. In March of the 11th year of Shunzhi (1654), Emperor Kangxi was born in this palace. In the forty-second year of Kangxi (1703), Prince Heshuo Yu Fuquan was mourned. Emperor Kangxi once again lived in this palace to mourn his brother. Since then, the palace has been used as a concubine residence. Concubine Zhen, the favored concubine of Emperor Guangxu, also lived in this palace.
