    So wonderful to see some non-European history here. It can be so easy for English-speaking history channels to be eurocentric with their content but there is so much history on other continents that we just don't learn about, and so much of it is really interesting! We wanna learn it all! :D

      Right?? I am sure there was murder and intrigue all through those courts with the jealousy and , the heirs having to basically compete.

      There is a life I would like to know about!

    As usual, your stellar work, blows me away. Thank you for introducing me to these long forgotten young women, and a glimpse of their lives. We can just barely imagine what it was like then, but you are able to place us in their shoes, so to speak. You manage to capture their emotional and human feelings. Which brings them to life for me. That's an Art my young friend. You truly have a gift.

    Thank you for the videos, I love them and appreciate all you do researching the content. You do have a comforting and calming voice, have you thought about also doing night calming relaxing videos in some way maybe reading well known novels? Theses videos are great but also very interesting and keep me awake because I’m so interested BUT if you had a second channel reading for night time listeners to calm and relax ready to sleep then that would be great 👍❤️ if you do please let me know. Thank you 👍👍👍👍👍❤️

    PUyi was said to be very cruel, sadistic and violent to his wifes and that he never had relations with them as he was gay, hence why his wife may have had relations and a daughter elsewhere.

    Hello, Forgotten Lives. Do you have any plans to start a patreon membership? I have a very cool video suggestion about a great-grandson of Mary, Queen of Scots that no one knows abouts (and he was a criminal). I'm doing some great research over him, it's a very tragic and beautiful story, but sadly there's nothing about him in terms of a book, video etc. I'd be glady help you on the script and title suggestions (via email), I believe it'd be one of the most viewed videos of your channel. I don't even want my name to appear on the video or anything, and I'd actually even give you a tip. I love your channel, and hopefully it'll get to 1M subs one day!

    Nice documentary. It is a tragedy to be the emperor's queen or concubine. And China is not alone in these tragedies that still exists today. By the way, the documentary did not mention Puyi lost his "man ability" at a very early age because of over indulgence with maids in the palace. He didn't sleep with either of his wives after they get married.
