Biography & Historical Record
Empress Quan (全皇后, 全惠解, Quán Huánghòu, Quán Huìjiě; c. 240s–301 AD), personal name Quan Huijie, was an empress of Eastern Wu and the primary consort of Sun Liang (孙亮), second emperor of Wu. She was the daughter of Minister of Works Quan Shang (全尚) and niece-in-law to Princess Sun Luban.
Enthroned as Empress in 253 AD, she was celebrated for her gentle beauty and palace decorum. In 258 AD, Sun Liang plotted with Quan Shang to execute regent Sun Chen, but the plot leaked. Sun Chen deposed Sun Liang, demoting Empress Quan to Princess of Kuaiji. After Sun Liang died in 260 AD, Empress Quan lived in quiet dignity, outliving the fall of Wu and passing away during the Yongkang era of Western Jin in 301 AD at around sixty years of age.
