Qianlong eraedit
The future Consort Dun was born on the sixth day of the third lunar month in the 11th year of the reign of the Qianlong Emperor, which translates to 27 March 1746 in the Gregorian calendar.
It is not known when Lady Wang entered the Forbidden City and became a lady-in-waiting of the Qianlong Emperor. On 22 November 1763, she was granted the title "First Attendant Yong". On 14 July 1766, she was elevated to "Noble Lady Yong". It is not known when she was demoted to "First Attendant Yong". On 13 March 1771, she was restored as "Noble Lady Yong". It is not known when she was once more demoted to "First Attendant Yong". She was elevated on 2 January 1772 to "Concubine Dun", and in December 1774 or January 1775 to "Consort Dun".
On 2 February 1775, Lady Wang gave birth the emperor's tenth daughter, Princess Hexiao of the First Rank. The Qianlong Emperor deeply favoured the princess and showed even greater favour towards her mother.
In 1778, Lady Wang ordered a palace maid to be severely beaten for making a minor mistake. The maid later died from her injuries. The Qianlong Emperor felt very frustrated by this incident because under the Qing dynasty's laws, he ought to harshly punish Lady Wang for causing the maid's death, but at the same time he was worried about how punishing Lady Wang would affect Princess Hexiao of the First Rank. He eventually demoted Lady Wang to "Concubine Dun" on 21 December 1778, and ordered her to compensate the maid's family with 100 taels of silver and to pay half of the financial penalty levied on her servants, whose salaries were suspended for a year or two. However, in December 1779 or January 1780, Lady Wang was restored as "Consort Dun".
Jiaqing eraedit
Lady Wang died on 6 March 1806 during the reign of the Jiaqing Emperor, the Qianlong Emperor's 15th son. She was interred in the Yu Mausoleum of the Eastern Qing tombs.
