In 1745, she was granted the title “Noble Lady”. She was elevated on 9 December 1745 to “Concubine Ling”, with “Ling” (\u4ee4) meaning “clever and pleasant”.

On 10 August 1756, when she was twenty-nine years old, she gave birth to the emperor’s seventh daughter, Princess Hejing. One year later, on 31 August 1757, she gave birth to the 14th son, Yonglu, who would die prematurely on 3 May 1760, and on 17 August 1758 to the ninth daughter, Princess Heke.
