China: Empress Xiaojingxian (1565-1612), consort of the 14th Ming Emperor Wanli (r. 1572-1620).

Empress Xiaojing (1565-1612), was the mother of the Taichang Emperor. Initially a maid of the Dowager Empress who caught the eye of Emperor Wanli, however, Wanli only favoured Lady Zheng, and all but ignored Xiaojing, hence Taichang was not created crown prince until 1601. Her grandson, the Tianqi Emperor, promoted her to Empress Dowager. Thus she was re-buried from an Imperial Concubine's tomb to the Wanli Emperor's tomb. The Wanli Emperor therefore was the only Ming Dynasty Emperor buried with two wives.
