  Emperor Wu of Han - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Consort Li was arrogant and jealous, and she hoped to become princess after Empress Bo was deposed in 151 BC.
When Consort Li, out of a grudge to Empress Jing's sister Princess Liu Piao (劉嫖), refused to let her son marry Princess Piao's daughter Chen Jiao (陳嬌), Consort Wang took the opportunity and had Chen Jiao betrothed to Prince Che.
Li's friend, the famed historian Sima Qian (whom Emperor Wu already bore a grudge against because Sima's Shiji was not as flattering to Emperor Wu and his father Emperor Jing as Emperor Wu wanted), who tried to defend Li's actions, was castrated.

 Emperor Taizong of Tang China - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Emperor Taizong of Tang China (January 23, 599–July 10, 649), born Li Shimin (李世民), was the second emperor of the Tang Dynasty of China from 626 to 649.
Leading the troops with his elder brother Li Jiancheng, the rebel army took the capital Chang'an in September 617, thereafter putting a puppet emperor on the throne before Li Yuan himself proclaimed the establishment of a new dynasty, the Tang, in 618.
Li Jiancheng recommended Li Yuanji to defend against this attack and used it as an excuse to summon many of Taizong's subordinates and soldiers out of his control.

This made Liu Rong's mother, Consort Li (栗姬), who was one of Emperor Jing's favorite concubines, extremely arrogant.
Princess Pi, seeing the precarious state that she would be in if Consort Li became empress dowager one day, carried out an alternative plan.
She then incessantly criticized Consort Li for her jealousy -- pointing out that, if Consort Li became empress dowager, many concubines might suffer the fates of Consort Qi, Emperor Gao's favorite concubine who was tortured and killed by Emperor Gao's wife Empress Dowager Lü after Emperor Gao's death.

 Emperor Shun of Han - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Then-Prince Bao was born to Emperor An and his concubine Consort Li in 115, apparently shortly after Emperor An had created his favorite Yan Ji empress.
Empress Yan herself was sonless, and in jealousy, she poisoned Consort Li to death, an act that went unpunished.
After his officials discouraged him from this action, he finally selected one of his consorts, Liang Na, as the one he considered most virtuous and most rational, and he created her empress in 132.

 Emperor An of Han - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Consort Zuo and her older sister Da'e (左大娥) were both confiscated and made court servant girls when they were young girls, because their uncle Zuo Sheng (左聖) had been accused of and executed for making defamatory remarks against the emperor or imperial administration.
Both Consorts Zuo died sometime before Emperor He's death in 106 and were buried in the capital Luoyang.
He also was heavily influenced by his favorite, Yan Ji (閻姬), whom he created empress in 115 -- even though she had poisoned to death one of his other consorts, Consort Li, who had given birth to his only son Liu Bao (劉保) in 115.

As the Li broke out, he sensibly made sure the Process and its assets were not in the in the line of fire.
He has rationalised his new values; he sees Li as perhaps the greatest tool ever for spontaneous order and trade — with the Li everybody is motivated to communicate and trade interstellarly, trust can be increased and maybe even the statists will see their error.

But she had not won the emperor's affection; he soon lost interest in her because he was in love with another consort, Li Fei, who would mysteriously disappear after Tzu Hsi became empress, never to be heard from again.
By the age of 15, Tzu Hsi's son, Tung Chih, was drinking heavily and consorting with male and female prostitutes.
One of the Chinese commanders was Jung Li, a moderate who, in Sterling Seagrave's view, only pretended to attack the foreigners while his men were actually "shooting into the air and setting off large quantities of firecrackers." There were a few truces; during one, a French man escaped the compound and visited Jung Li.

"Princess consort" -- what a horrible, skeevy title, implying (to me at least) something more along the lines of "official mistress to the king." Then again, perhaps it's slyly appropriate, given Charles and Camilla's tawdry history together.
Camilla may become queen after all, despite earlier statements that her new title might be "princess consort." By British law, if Prince Charles becomes king, she automatically would become queen.
