Welcome to the [Trend Epic] channel, today let's take a look at the following content. On February 12, 1912, Yuan Shikai, the minister of Beiyang, induced the Qing Emperor Puyi to abdicate and promulgated the Qing Emperor's abdication edict, and the Qing Dynasty ended there. From the establishment of Nurhaci to the fall of Puyi, the Qing Dynasty existed for 296 years in history and did not escape the curse of 300 years.
Why did the Qing Dynasty die, and why did the Qing Dynasty only have a history of 296 years?

There are many reasons, Ye Shijun today from the qianlong emperor's wife Empress Fucha to talk about why the Qing Dynasty only has a history of 296 years.
Because of the fire of "Yanxi Raiders", Empress Fucha, who died a hundred years ago, also caught fire and became the white moonlight in the eyes of the world. In "Yanxi Raiders", Empress Fucha, played by Qin Lan, is the wife of the Qianlong Emperor, she is not in contention, gentle and kind, dignified and beautiful, and is deeply loved by the Qianlong Emperor, but in the end she was greatly shocked by the death of her two sons one after another, and jumped from the corner tower and died.

Like "Yanxi Raiders", the historical Empress Fucha was also favored by the Qianlong Emperor, and after her death, she became the favorite of the Qianlong Emperor's life, the unforgettable white moonlight of a lifetime, and the object of his life's remembrance.
Even though Qianlong was already white-haired, he still couldn't forget marrying his own Fucha Empress at the age of 15.
At the age of 86, Qianlong had abdicated as Emperor Taishang, and Empress Fucha had been dead for 48 years, so he took the newly enthroned Jiaqing Emperor to pay tribute to Empress Fucha and wrote another poem to mourn Empress Fucha: Jidi is on the verge of whirlwind, planting pine and growing into the clouds. Twilight in the middle of the spring, forty-eight years.
We don't know how deep Qianlong's love for Empress Fucha really was, but we can see from Empress Fucha's funeral why the Qing Dynasty died 164 years later.
"On March 11, the thirteenth year of Qianlong, the empress collapsed."

Who could have imagined that the death of Empress Fucha would have such a great impact on Qianlong and Daqing.
Empress Fucha's death was not without warning.
Three months before her death, her youngest son died prematurely, before he was one year old. At that time, Empress Fucha had already lost a son, and the younger son's death again struck her deeply.
Ben was born at an advanced age, and the premature death of her son made her health worse and worse, and when she toured the east with Qianlong, she collapsed in Dezhou Zhouci.
Her death deeply affected Qianlong, and it also caused a series of storms, some people died because of her, some people were deposed because of her, and some people were punished for her.

Empress Fucha died in Texas, not in the capital, and in order to preserve her last body temperature in the Green Sparrow Boat that Empress Fucha was riding on when she died, Qianlong actually ordered that the big ship be transported back to the capital in its entirety. Huge ships, narrow cave gates, how do big ships enter Beijing? At that time, Qianlong was already crazy, and he ordered the city gate tower to be demolished, just to keep the big ship.
Fortunately, the ancients were intelligent. Finally, under the method of Rebbe Shangshu, the large ship that Empress Fucha was riding on when she died smoothly entered the capital smoothly and smoothly, and did not demolish the city gate tower.
The entry of Empress Fucha's body into Beijing was only the beginning, and with the beginning of the funeral, the storm was everywhere.
At first, Qianlong ignored the precedent, bypassed the Ministry of Ceremonies and the Cabinet, and directly demoted the title of "Filial Piety".
Later, for the funeral of Empress Fucha, Qianlong spent a huge amount of money and built a large number of civil engineering projects, giving Empress Fucha the highest treatment after her death.

At the beginning of the funeral, Qianlong gave the funeral office 300,000 silver, and later, he ordered the construction of the Guande Hall and mobilized 8242 craftsmen, each working as a strong man, spending more than 9600 silver. Later, Qianlong expanded the Jing'an Zhuang where the coffin was parked, costing more than 91,300 silver.
Not to mention, the funeral turmoil that later made Qianlong furious, and those officials who were killed and demoted by Qianlong were killed by Qianlong.
Probably because they were young couples, Qianlong was very unwilling and reluctant to die empress Fucha, and he could never get out of the fact that Empress Fucha had died.
He was grumpy, he was angry, he was bloodthirsty, and he killed one innocent person after another.
I think that these storms caused by the funeral of Empress Fucha may be one of the reasons why the Qing Dynasty perished.
Imperial power is supreme, centralized power, the ruler is autocratic and exclusive, no one to restrain, no one dares to restrict.
From Qin Shi Huang to the Qing Dynasty, the centralized system evolved for a thousand years and reached its peak in the Qing Dynasty, which made the dynasty a family dynasty, a one-man dynasty. At the time when Qianlong was trying to rule the Daxing literary prison, the West had begun a parliamentary system, and the country was more democratic and free. The prison of words makes the literati dare not speak, no one dares to criticize, no one dares to refute, obviously the people do not talk about life, but can only praise the country and the people.
On the issue of Empress Fucha's funeral, did Qianlong do something wrong?
The answer is yes.
He should not want to demolish the city gate tower for the sake of a deceased person; he should not spend a huge amount of money on construction for a deceased person; he should not wantonly kill for a deceased person.
Seeing that he had made a mistake, why didn't the minister advise him, and why didn't the cabinet stop him? Could it be that the ministers and the cabinet all felt that Qianlong was not wrong?

No, the truth is that they did not dare, and when they saw the angry Qianlong, they did not dare to stop it with their lives. Or, even if they tried to stop it with their lives, would Qianlong listen?
Do they have the right to stop Qianlong?
No, by that time the absolute monarchy had reached its peak, the cabinet was equivalent to fictitious, and they had no right to prevent any action of the emperor.
At that time, the Great Qing had become the Great Qing of the Ai Xinjue Luo family, not the Great Qing of 300 million people.
How could such a great Qing dynasty be long live? Everlasting?
Extinction is its destination and end.
