Cucumber is very expensive to say.

The humble slave gave birth to a princess and was given two cucumbers by Qianlong, which made others very envious, because cucumbers were not high-value items, but they were very rare in winter and could only be possessed through special cultivation.

This humble slave was very popular in Qianlong's later years. She is the little-known Wang family in history. This concubine was born as a slave and was in poor health, so she didn't get the love and attention of Qianlong after she entered the palace, and she has been silently beside Qianlong. Later, through some accidental opportunities, she was gradually promoted by Qianlong until she became a concubine.

In the constant promotion of this princess, when the king was sixty years old, she also gave birth to ten princesses for the king. This princess looks like Qianlong, so Qianlong loves this princess very much. She was given the title of "Gulen" as soon as she was born, and named her "Gulen and Princess Filial Piety", and gave seven cucumbers which were very difficult to cultivate in winter to the princess in one winter.

Although cucumber is not very valuable in ancient times, it is a very precious thing in this cold season of winter. It needs to be cultivated very carefully before it can be cultivated successfully. At that time, no one else in the harem got cucumbers, only this concubine got two cucumbers, so her other concubines were envious. It can also be seen that Qianlong loved this concubine very much in his later years.
