This, as the title suggests, is all about the females who lived and worked in the Forbidden City. This includes the emperor's wife (the Empress)the females of his harem (his concubines) his maids, and all the other female servants in the Forbidden City. It gives details about their life, and their aspirations to share his bed and to produce a child for him. Giving birth to a boy meant considerable promotion and the acquisition of much wealth and power. But above all, every female inside the Imperial Palace longed to be chosen as his bedmate.It was a very closed society, and there were good things and bad things about the life of a Chinese female in the palace. All of this is written in a very enjoyable style that will please male and female readers alike.
