Records of eunuchs' lives are relatively rare in historical books of all dynasties, but the sexual misconduct in the palace recorded in history is largely related to eunuchs. On the one hand, this manifests itself in homosexual relations between monarchs and eunuchs; on the other hand, it manifests itself in adulterous relations between concubines and eunuchs. How do eunuchs and women satisfy their sexual desires? This has always been a mystery. But first of all, one thing is certain, that is, for many eunuchs, it is obviously impossible to have a normal sex life due to the lack of a penis, so their way of satisfying sexual desire must be deformed or even pathological. However, fundamentally, it is nothing more than satisfying psychological and physiological needs through visual and tactile stimulation. Although eunuchs lost their normal "sexual" ability after castration, there are many signs that they still have certain "sexual" demands. From a physiological point of view, although the eunuch's penis is castrated, his gonads are still there and sex hormones are still secreted, which may lead to the existence of sexual desire. From a psychological point of view, sexual affairs between the emperor and his concubines in the palace were not taboo due to the eunuchs' special status, which might have stimulated them and thus induced sexual desire. In a sense, this abnormal psychological development can even make them have stronger sexual desires than normal people. According to the available historical data, there are roughly two types of One is comfort and oral sex. A Qing Dynasty note "Langji Congtan" says: "When a eunuch is close to a woman, he likes to caress and bite her mouth, and he will be tense for a while until he sweats. This means that his sexual desire has been completely released, which is also abnormal." The second way is to use sex toys. The "Renhai Ji" by Cha Shenxing of the Qing Dynasty records that Concubine Tian, the favorite concubine of Emperor Chongzhen of the late Ming Dynasty, took advantage of the obscene activities between eunuchs and palace maids to sow discord between Emperor Chongzhen and Empress Zhou. One day, Concubine Tian deliberately asked the palace maids to carry the sedan chair to meet Emperor Chongzhen. Chongzhen felt very strange when he saw that the sedan chair was carried by palace maids instead of eunuchs as usual. Concubine Tian took the opportunity to explain: "The eunuchs are wanton and lawless, especially the young eunuchs in Queen Zhou's palace who have affairs with the palace maids, so we keep our distance from them." Chongzhen was a suspicious person by nature, and he immediately ordered a search of the Kunning Palace where Queen Zhou lived. Sure enough, many kinds of sexual tools used by the eunuchs were seized. Queen Zhou was so angry that she vomited blood on the spot. At this moment, an old palace servant reminded Chongzhen: "Is Concubine Tian the only one without a pair of lovers in her palace? We can search them too." Chongzhen decided to go all out and indeed found a batch of sex toys. There are indeed some records of eunuchs committing adultery in the palace in history. In addition to the well-known Lao Ai, the powerful eunuch Wei Zhongxian in the late Ming Dynasty, the wet nurse Keshi of Emperor Xizong of the Ming Dynasty, and An Dehai and Empress Dowager Cixi in the late Qing Dynasty are all more famous examples. Ke Shi, the wife of Hou Er from Dingxing, was selected by the wet nurse's house and sent to the palace at the age of eighteen and became the wet nurse of the later Xizong Zhu Youjian. After Zhu ascended the throne, he enfeoffed Keshi as Lady Fengsheng, a position of great honor. Ke Shi was a woman with a strong sexual desire. She first became friends with the eunuch leader Wei Chao, but later, when she heard that Wei Zhongxian was more sexually capable than Wei Chao, she turned to Wei Zhongxian for sex. The two Weis became rivals in love. Wei Zhongxian originally worshipped under Wei Chao's name, and Wei Chao certainly couldn't stand it. So the two Weis had a sexual fight in the warm room of the Qianqing Palace to compete for favor, and woke up the sleeping Xizong. When Xizong learned about the situation, he was not angry. Instead, he let Keshi decide. Keshi was inclined towards Wei Zhongxian, so Xizong awarded Wei Zhongxian to Keshi, and Wei Chao was exiled to the outside of the palace to work in the gardens. Keshi and Wei Zhongxian were passionate about sex and their affair was very intense. With the help of Keshi, Wei Zhongxian was quickly promoted to the chief eunuch of Silijian and had great power in the harem. |
