It wasn't that Xu Lejin didn't want to become an Imperial Noble Consort, but rather that she knew that although she had many children, her maternal family was not prominent, her father and half-brothers were not particularly talented, and her two younger brothers were still young and had never served as officials in the court.
Although some of her sisters married into wealthy and powerful families, their family backgrounds were ultimately shallow.
After more than seven months of pregnancy, she safely gave birth to twins, Yinshi and Yinshi. Emperor Kangxi then bestowed upon Xu Lejin the title of Imperial Noble Consort. However, due to obstruction from court officials, the investiture ceremony was delayed.
She became pregnant again in 27 years and gave birth to twin daughters, Jia Ning and You Yao, in the same year.
Although there were two princesses, Xu Lejin finally received the imperial concubine conferment ceremony, which was more than three years late. At this time, her fifth brother from her maternal family had also passed the imperial examination and entered the court as an official.
Ushiha, one of the triplets born in the first pregnancy, was also betrothed to a member of the Guarjia clan in Jiangsu and Anhui.
Everything is moving in a positive direction and is thriving.
From the 28th to the 38th year of the Kangxi Emperor's reign, Xu Lejin, as a mother, sent several of her daughters, including Wuxiha, Wuyoudai, Wulingzhu, and Yuludai, to marry. Yin Chu's wife was also chosen to be from the Ulanara clan.

The birth of Yinhu and Xianle led to Xu Lejin being named Empress, becoming the mother of the nation.

Xu Lejin was shocked, but then she thought about it again.
There were dozens of concubines in the palace, many of whom were young and beautiful. Although she had taken great care of herself over the years, and had received elixirs from Yinling and Wunaxi to regulate her body, she looked no more than twenty-five or twenty-six, but she was, after all, getting old.
For the next ten years or so.
Yin Chu and Lady Ulanara were a loving couple. Yin Shi and Yin Shi also married their wives one after another. Jia Ning and You Yao also got married, all to high-ranking families in the capital.
November of the 51st year of the Kangxi Emperor's reign
The sudden imperial edict of abdication from Emperor Kangxi stunned Xu Lejin, who accepted the reality of her son Yinchu ascending the throne as the new emperor and her becoming the Empress Dowager without any understanding of the situation.
During her years as the Empress Dowager, she lived a peaceful and stable life.
Except for the disagreement between the youngest son, Yinhu, and the retired Emperor Kangxi when choosing a consort, everything else was harmonious.
