Could someone become Empress in China more than once?
Upvote:1
The same woman became Queen Consort more than once in France, but to the best of my knowledge, the right pre-conditions never occurred in China. And these "pre-conditions" had nothing to do with "black magic."
Anne, Duchess of Brittany became Queen of France twice, first married to Charles VIII (born 1470), then to his cousin and successor, Louis XII, (born 1462). That's because Charles VIII died young (in 1498 at age 28), and was succeeded by a "peer."
The reason I give both birth years is because the two men were contemporaries, and for the same woman to be married to both of them was not out of the question. Most kingly successions, in France or in China, feature a much older king succeeded by a much younger one. It's unlikely that two such men would marry the same woman.
To the best of my knowledge, there were few (same generation) successions in China, and no successions where both the outgoing and incoming king/emperor selected the same woman as a Chief Consort (as opposed to a concubine).
