Empress Gongsheng (1162–1232), surnamed Yang, was a Chinese Empress consort of the Song dynasty, married to Emperor Ningzong of Song. Yang entered the palace because of her beauty. It is said that she came from Kuaiji. She claimed to be the sister of the official Yang Cishan, and assumed his surname Yang. In 1195, the first year of the Qingyuan era, she was married with Zhao Kuang, and was named the Lady of Pinglejunfuren (平乐郡夫人). She was promoted to the title ''jieyu'' (婕妤) three years later. In the fifth year of Qingyuan (1199), Yang was promoted to ''wanyi'' (婉仪), and to ''guifei'' (贵妃) a year later. In 1200, Empress Gongshu died of an illness. Both Beauty Cao (曹美人) and Yang were favoured by the emperor, but Yang was named the Empress because she was clever and conversant with history. In the second year of Baoqing (1226), Empress Gongsheng became Empress dowager Shouming. In the first year of Shaoding (1228), she was additionally named Empress Dowager Shoumingcirui (寿明慈睿皇太后). In the fourth year of Shaoding (1231), she was made Empress Dowager Shoumingrenfucirui (寿明仁福慈睿皇太后). In the fifth year, she died in Ciming Palace, and was named Gongshengrenlie (恭圣仁烈) posthumously. ==References== *''History of the Song Dynasty''. Liezhuan.
