supports: The Kangxi Emperor (4 May 165420 December 1722) was the fourth emperor of the Qing dynasty, the first to be born on Chinese soil south of the Shanhai Pass near Beijing, and the second Qing emperor to rule over that part of China, from 1661 to 1722. China proper, Inner China or the Eighteen Provinces was a term used by Western writers on the Manchu Qing dynasty to express a distinction between the core and frontier regions of China. There is no fixed extent for China proper, as many administrative, cultural, and linguistic shifts have occurred in Chinese history. One definition refers to the original area of Chinese civilization, the North China Plain; another to the "Eighteen Provinces" system of the Qing dynasty. There is no direct translation for "China proper" in the Chinese language due to differences in terminology used by the Qing to refer to the regions and the expression is controversial among scholars, particularly in China, partly because it implies the frontier regions outside China proper are in some way separate or even illegitimate territories of China. The Yongzheng Emperor (13 December 1678  8 October 1735), born Yinzhen, was the fifth emperor of the Manchu-led Qing dynasty and the third Qing emperor to rule over China proper. He reigned from 1723 to 1735. A hard-working ruler, the Yongzheng Emperor's main goal was to create an effective government at minimal expense. Like his father, the Kangxi Emperor, the Yongzheng Emperor used military force to preserve the dynasty's position. His reign was known for being despotic, efficient, and vigorous. The Jiaqing Emperor (13 November 1760  2 September 1820), personal name Aisin Gioro Yongyan, was the seventh emperor of the Manchu-led Qing dynasty, and the fifth Qing emperor to rule over China from 1796 to 1820. He was the 15th son of the Qianlong Emperor. During his reign, he prosecuted Heshen, the corrupt favourite of his father, and attempted to restore order within the Qing Empire and curb the smuggling of opium into China. The Ming dynasty was the ruling dynasty of Chinathen known as the for 276 years (13681644) following the collapse of the Mongol-led Yuan dynasty. The Ming, described by some as "one of the greatest eras of orderly government and social stability in human history," was the last imperial dynasty in China ruled by ethnic Han Chinese. Although the primary capital of Beijing fell in 1644 to a rebellion led by Li Zicheng (who established the Shun dynasty, soon replaced by the Manchu-led Qing dynasty), regimes loyal to the Ming throne  collectively called the Southern Ming  survived until 1683. Consort Dun ( 1746 -- 1806 ) was a consort of the Qianlong Emperor of the Qing Dynasty . Consort Dun was born of the Manchu Wang (  ) clan . Her personal name is unknown .

She was chosen to join the imperial harem and was given the rank of First Class Female Attendant Yong (  ) . In 1770 she was promoted to the position of Imperial Concubine Dun (  ) . In 1775 Lady Wang gave birth to the Qianlong Emperor 's tenth daughter Gurun Princess Hexiao . The Qianlong Emperor was very fond of the princess and he started showing favour towards Lady Wang . A year later in 1776 , Lady Wang was elevated to the status of Consort Dun (  ) . In 1778 Lady Wang had a palace maid severely beaten for making a minor mistake and the maid died from her injuries . Homicide was a grave offence under the laws of the Qing Dynasty and Lady Wang ought to be harshly punished . However , in consideration of how Gurun Princess Hexiao would be affected if her mother was heavily penalised , the Qianlong Emperor eventually decided to demote Lady Wang to the rank of Imperial Concubine Dun . Lady Wang was also ordered to compensate the maid 's family with 100 taels of silver , and pay half of the financial penalty levied on her servants , whose salaries were suspended for a year or two . Two years later in 1780 Lady Wang was restored to her status as a Consort . Lady Wang died in 1806 during the reign of the Jiaqing Emperor , the Qianlong Emperor 's successor . She was interred in the Yuling Mausoleum (  ) for the Qing emperors ' concubines . The Qianlong Emperor (25 September 1711  7 February 1799) was the sixth emperor of the Manchu-led Qing dynasty, and the fourth Qing emperor to rule over China proper. Born Aisin Gioro Hongli, the fourth son of the Yongzheng Emperor, he reigned officially from 11 October 1735 to 8 February 1796. On 8 February, he abdicated in favour of his son, the Jiaqing Emperor  a filial act in order not to reign longer than his grandfather, the illustrious Kangxi Emperor. Despite his retirement, however, he retained ultimate power as the Emperor Emeritus (or Retired Emperor) until his death in 1799; he thus was the longest-reigning "de facto" ruler in the history of China, and dying at the age of 87, the longest-living. As a capable and cultured ruler inheriting a thriving empire, during his long reign the Qing Empire reached its most splendid and prosperous era, boasting a large population and economy, with various military campaigns expand its territory to the largest extent. In his late years, eclipsed in effectiveness of his rule, with rampant corruption and wastefulness in his court, and a stagnant civil society, the empire was in gradual decline. Aisin Gioro is the imperial clan of Manchu emperors of the Qing dynasty. The House of Aisin Gioro ruled China from 1644 until the Xinhai Revolution of 1911-12, which established a republican government in its place. The word "aisin" means "gold" in the Manchu language, and "gioro" is the name of the Aisin Gioro's ancestral home in present-day Yilan, Heilongjiang Province. In Manchu custom, families are identified first by their "hala" (), i.e. their family or clan name, and then by "mukn" (), the more detailed classification, typically referring to individual families. In the case of Aisin Gioro, Aisin is the "mukn", and Gioro is the "hala". Other members of the Gioro clan include Irgen Gioro (), Susu Gioro () and Sirin Gioro (). The Qing dynasty, officially the Great Qing, also called the Qing Empire or the Manchu dynasty, was the last imperial dynasty of China, ruling from 1644 to 1912 with a brief, abortive restoration in 1917. It was preceded by the Ming dynasty and succeeded by the Republic of China. The Qing multi-cultural empire lasted almost three centuries and formed the territorial base for the modern Chinese state.
