There were a total of 12 emperors in the Qing Dynasty, seventy-two concubines of the emperor's three palaces and six courtyards, children and grandchildren, and many people. According to some statistics, in the 1930s, there were only about 20,000 royal males living in Aisin Kyora, and all of them had more than 100,000 people, and now, there should be hundreds of thousands of them.
So after the Qing Dynasty withdrew from the stage of history, where did the descendants of Ai Xinjueluo go? Their descendants all integrated into the Han nationality and changed their surnames one after another, such as Jin, Zhao, Wang, Sun, Ai, Luo, Zhao, Fan, Guan, and E. It is said that the original surname of Ai Xin Jue Luo should be 'Zhao', because "Jue Luo" means "Zhao" in Manchu, which is their surname. "Ai Xin" means 'gold' in Manchu, so they change to the most people who are golden.
The Qing Tombs are located 30 kilometers northwest of Zunhua City, Tangshan City, Hebei Province, and 125 kilometers west of Beijing City, covering an area of 80 square kilometers. The entire mausoleum is buried with 5 emperors, 15 empresses, 136 concubines, 3 brothers, and 2 princesses, for a total of 161 people.
The Qing Tombs and the Qing Dynasty Tombs are the largest and most complete group of royal tombs in China. From April 1 to October 31 every year, the Royal Sacrifice Ceremony is held four times a day at the Xiaoling Tombs of the Qing Dynasty. This is also to show how the ancient royal family worshipped ancestors, in order to let everyone know more about it.
The descendant of Ai Xin Jueluo that we are most familiar with is Mr. Qi Gong, a calligrapher and connoisseur of calligraphy and painting, who was a professor of the Department of Chinese of Beijing Normal University and died of illness in 2005. Qi Gong was the ninth grandson of the Yongzheng Emperor, and his ancestor was Yongzheng's fifth son, Hongzhi, the half-brother of the Qianlong Emperor. Like Mr. Qi Gong, more than a hundred of aisin Kyora's descendants are connoisseurs of painting and calligraphy.
Did the descendants of Aisin Kyora go to the Qing Tombs or the Qing Tombs to worship?
Born in 1958, Ai Xin Jueluo Hengshao was the seventh grandson of the Qianlong Emperor, deputy chief Chinese medicine physician, and president of the Jilin Manchu Friendship Association. Six years ago, Heng Shao led his family to a large-scale worship service in Qingling. At that time, everyone put on the imperial clothes of the Qing Dynasty and performed the worship very solemnly.
This time, the worship of the Aisin Kyora family caused quite a stir, and many people went to watch. Everyone was talking about it, saying everything, of course, there was a lot of criticism, saying that the Qing Dynasty was already in the past tense, and what was the use of engaging in these forms. Therefore, such large-scale worship events have never been held since.
Did any of the descendants of Ai Xinjue luo go to the Qing DongLing or the Qing Xi Ling to worship? Of course there is, but in form it may be silent and will not take the traditional form. After all, it is a public place, and it is not suitable for such activities.
Because the Qing DongLing and Qing Xi Ling are now the national key cultural relics protection units, the national 5A level tourist attractions, and have been selected into the "World Heritage List". Therefore, in such a place, who enters must not only buy tickets, but also abide by the rules inside. If the descendants of Ai Shin Kyora go to worship casually, it will certainly not work.
However, the descendants of Aisin Kyora certainly have their own forms of ancestor worship, and they are not limited to the Qing Dongling and Qingxi Tombs. In particular, the Qing DongLing and Qing Xi Mausoleums are buried in their ancestors, and they have been up for many generations. Therefore, the worship of ancestors is generally limited to their own recent generations, and the words of ancestors can be performed remotely.
