Шаблон:Family name hatnote Шаблон:Infobox royalty Empress Qian (Шаблон:Zh; 1426 – 15 July 1468) was a Chinese empress consort during the Ming dynasty, married to the Zhengtong Emperor. She was addressed posthumously as Empress Xiaozhuangrui (Шаблон:Zh)
Early life
There is no record of Empress Qian's birth name, other than that she was a member of the clan Qian (Шаблон:Zh). She married the Zhengtong Emperor on 8 June 1442, and became his primary consort and empress.Шаблон:Sfnp
Empress
In 1449, the Zhengtong Emperor was captured after the Battle of Tumu and his captors demanded a ransom, which Empress Qian and her mother-in-law promptly raised.Шаблон:Sfnp The ransom was rejected in favour of holding on to the Zhengtong Emperor as hostage, which prompted the court to assign him the status of retired emperor and name his half-brother Zhu Qiyu emperor.Шаблон:Sfnp Empress Qian was moved from the court to a separate palace to allow Empress Wang to take the title of empress consort.Шаблон:Sfnp
When her spouse was returned by the Mongols, arriving in Beijing on 19 September 1450, Empress Qian joined him under house arrest in a guarded section of the Imperial City.Шаблон:SfnpШаблон:Sfnp When her spouse's only son, the future Chenghua Emperor, was deposed as heir apparent in 1452, he was sent to live with Empress Qian in conditions of physical hardship.Шаблон:Sfnp In 1457, a coup-d'etat put her spouse back on the imperial throne as the Tianshun Emperor, reinstating Empress Qian as the empress consort.Шаблон:Sfnp
Empress dowager
Empress Qian had no children, and when the Zhengtong Emperor died in 1464, he was succeeded by the Chenghua Emperor. She became involved in a conflict with Empress Xiaosu, the biological mother of the new emperor. As the mother of the emperor, Empress Xiaosu demanded the same title as Qian: that of empress dowager.Шаблон:Sfnp Xiaosu pointed out that she was the mother of the emperor while Qian was childless, while Qian demanded the title pointing to her loyalty to the late emperor, whose house arrest she had shared.Шаблон:Sfnp The emperor was unable to solve the conflict to the satisfaction of both parties, but granted the title of empress dowager to both, though Qian's formal title acknowledged her higher rank and precedence in court proceedings.Шаблон:Sfnp
