Royal Noble Consort Yeong of the Jeonui Yi clan (Korean: 영빈 전의 이씨; Hanja: 暎嬪 全義 李氏; 15 August 1696 – 23 August 1764), alternatively known as Lady Seonhui (Korean: 선희궁; Hanja: 宣禧宮), was a concubine of King Yeongjo of Joseon and the mother of Crown Prince Sado. [1]
King Yeongjo eventually learned of Sado's behaviour. Yeongjo met his son to confront him but no consequences were ordered because Sado attributed his actions to being "sad that [Yeongjo] does not love [him] and terrified when [Yeongjo] criticizes [Sado]". [50] Instead the confrontation ended with Yeongjo promising to support his son better.

After the death of Queen Jeongseong in 1757, King Yeongjo held bridal selections to choose his second queen.

On 9 June 1759, Queen Jeongsun was chosen as queen.
