Qianlong Emperor
The Qianlong Emperor held his mother in high regard and often consulted her for advice. Some believe that she may have been behind the emperor's ill-fated selection of Lady Nara to be his second empress consort. The Qianlong Emperor often visited his mother. The Empress dowager also always accompanied her son on his excursions to Shenyang and the Yangtze River Delta. In her old age, when the Empress dowager was no longer fit to travel, the Qianlong Emperor stopped all his trips and only resumed them after her death.
