Madame Ke (Chinese: 客氏; pinyin: Kè Shì) was the nanny of the young Tianqi Emperor (1605-1627), who was Emperor of China (Ming dynasty) from 1620 to 1627. As he was 15 when he became Emperor, and also illiterate, he delegated all duties to Wei Zhongxian, giving the actual power to him and Madame Ke. Both of them were eliminated as soon the Chongzhen Emperor (the last one of the Ming dynasty) succeeded his brother to the throne in 1627.
