the hated advances of the emperor, until finally she is poisoned. Khwāja Jihān with his brother were the khojas during the Qing conquest of Xinjiang. Previously during the late-1600s, Dzungar Khanate conquered Yarkent Khanate, the Dzungars appointed Khojas as rulers of Kashgaria ( Altishahr or southern Xinjiang). In the 1750s, the Khoja brothers supported Qing conquest of their Dzungar rulers in northern Xinjiang. They sought independence for Altishahr (southern Xinjiang). However, the Qing conquered them as well in the years that followed. Apak Khoja and Fragrant Concubine Tomb The Afaq Khoja Mausoleum (mazar) located outside Kashgar was built in 1640 and, in addition to encompassing a larger complex that includes a functioning mosque and madrasa, houses the coffins of five generations of the Afak Khoja family, including what is purported to be the body of the Fragrant Concubine. In fact, the real Imperial Consort Rong died of illness on 24 May 1788 and was buried at the Eastern Qing Tombs; the legend of the Fragrant Concubine first became closely associated with the Kashgar tomb in the late 19th century, and the connection has since been officially established and endorsed through a proliferation of signs and guided tours. In fiction In literature Fragrant Concubine is the title character of Nellie Yu Roung Ling's 1930 novella Hsiang Fei: A Love Story of the Emperor Ch’ien Lung. The character Princess Fragrance in Louis Cha's wuxia novel The Book and the Sword is loosely based on the Fragrant Concubine narrative. The concubine also appeared as the character Han Xiang in the television series My Fair Princess, based on the novel with the same title authored by Chiung Yao.
