Introduction
Ninshiangfei (1392–1421), whose name is unknown, came from the family of Ren Tiannian, the Left Yín of Ning府 in Korea. She was one of the concubines of Ming Chengzu. In November of the sixth year of the Yongle reign (1408), eunuch Huang Yan and others selected a tribute girl from Korea. The following year, they conducted another selection, ultimately choosing five women—Ninshiangfei, Quanshi, Lushi, Lishi, and Cuishi—to be sent into the Ming palace. At that time, she was seventeen years old. According to the Annals of the Joseon Dynasty, Joseon Taejong once criticized the appearances of Ninshiangfei and Lushi.
In February of the seventh year of Yongle (1409), Ming Chengzu granted Ninshiangfei the title of Shunfei (Concubine of the First Rank). Her father, Ren Tiannian, was also appointed Hongluqing (a fourth-grade official). In 1421, Ninshiangfei and Zhengshi were implicated in the Yilü Rebellion and both committed suicide by hanging. They were both thirty years old and had no posthumous titles. There is some controversy over the historical authenticity of the Yilü Rebellion.
It is recorded that Ninshiangfei may have been buried with the emperor in 1424. On October 17th of that year, Joseon King Sejong held a banquet in the palace annex to console the court. The emperor's relatives, including her father, Ren Tiannian, and other Korean tribute women, were informed that they had all been buried with the emperor.
