China: Imperial Noble Consort Qing Gong (1724-1774), concubine of the Qianlong Emperor.

The Imperial Noble Consort Qing Gong (1724 - 1774), was an Imperial Consort of the Qianlong Emperor of China, and came from the Lu clan. Lady Lu entered the Imperial Court around the first year of Qianlong's reign, and was given the title Worthy Lady Lu. During the sixth year of Emperor Qianlong's reign, Worthy Lady Lu was elevated to an Imperial Concubine, and during the fourteenth year of Emperor Qianlong's reign, she was promoted to a consort. Nineteen years later, during the thirty-third year of Emperor Qianlong's reign, she was elevated to the rank of a Noble Consort, and given the name Qing, meaning 'Celebration'. Lady Lu died during the thirty-ninth year of Emperor Qianlong's reign, aged 50. Because the next emperor, the Jiaqing Emperor has been raised by Noble Consort Qing, she was posthumously given the title of 'Imperial Noble Consort Qing-Gong.
