Description: The Chinese emperors all had hundreds, if not thousands of beauties at their beck and call. Many of the beauties, separated at a young age from their families, lived in the rear palace in loneliness and seclusion. A few, however, won the favor of their imperial masters, and were able to gain supremacy over the imperial court, or even to wield great power that affected the policies of the imperial government. The stories in this book are selected for their historical value and vividly portray the social customs and palace life in ancient China. This book contains the stories of 12 well-known imperial consorts.
