Trang Ý
Trang Ý, born Vũ Thị Hài or Vũ Thị Duyên, was the wife of Tự Đức and adopted-mother of Dục Đức.
She was a daughter of Vũ Xuân Cẩn. She had no child with Tự Đức, and adopted Dục Đức. After Tự Đức's death, she was granted the title Empress Khiêm, and elevated to the position of one of the "Tam Cung" together with Từ Dụ and Học phi.
Tôn Thất Thuyết decided to launch the Cần Vương movement against French colonists. "Tam Cung" fled to Tomb of Tự Đức together with Emperor Hàm Nghi. Thuyết decided to take them to a mountain base at Tân Sở, and then went to China to hide and seek reinforcements. "Tam Cung" refused, and came back to Huế.
She was granted the title Empress Dowager Trang Ý by Đồng Khánh in 1887, and elevated to Grand Empress Dowager Trang Ý by Thành Thái in 1889. She died in 1903, and was given the posthumous name Empress Lệ Thiên.
