On November 14, 1908, the Guangxu Emperor drove. Bizarrely, his death was only one day away from that of Empress Dowager Cixi, and he also died in front of Empress Dowager Cixi. Considering the failure of the Penghu Reform Law, the 6 gentlemen were righteous. Kang Youwei and Liang Qichao are wanted. The sharp contradiction between the reformists and the diehards (in fact, Cixi did not reject the reform and reform method, but here is the name to show the difference and follow the history). Obviously, the death of the Guangxu Emperor was very interesting and mysterious.
In November 2008, a hundred years later, the cause of death of the Guangxu Emperor, who was imprisoned in the Hundred Days Restoration and Change of Law, was traced. The cause of death appraisal report presented by the Forensic Examination and Appraisal Center of the Beijing Municipal Public Security Bureau clearly announced that the Guangxu Emperor died of acute poisoning with arsenic. Apparently, the Guangxu Emperor died of poison. The suspicion of poisoning Empress Dowager Cixi, who imprisoned the Guangxu Emperor, was the greatest. The death date of only two people is only one day apart, Guangxu is in front of him, Cixi is followed, and there must be many meaningful and insufficient reasons for outsiders. The following analysis of the cause of death of the Guangxu Emperor, this article is only a personal speculation, not enough to rely on.
In order not to let the Guangxu Emperor imprisoned in Yingtai run away, Empress Dowager Cixi took great pains.
Because it was a winter moon and there was ice around Yingtai, Cixi ordered Fengchenyuan to urgently send someone to open the ice surface of more than one inch wide around Yingtai, and from the next day, he sent professional lifu into the trap, and the bright water must be common.
It can be seen that on September 28, 1898, after punishing Tan Sitong, Kang Guangren, Yang Rui, Yang Shenxiu, Liu Guangdi, and Lin Xu, Cixi was still very worried about the escape of the deposed emperor Guangxu Emperor and the re-affairs of Kang, Liang and others before capturing Kang Youwei and Liang Qichao. Although at this moment, Kang and Liang were invariably far away from Japan.
According to the "National News Preparation", "Xiao Qin (Cixi) had no soldiers and sneaked into the palace, making Emperor Dezong (Emperor Guangxu) like a lone chick.". It can be seen that Cixi was both fearless and resentful of the Guangxu Emperor.
For example, on the morning of September 20, 1898, on the day of Cixi's political training, he questioned the Guangxu Emperor, saying, "Ru entered the palace at the age of 5, succeeded him as emperor, raised him as an adult, and even returned to the government. ”
For another example, since hearing Yuan Shikai's intention to "encircle the garden and imprison the queen", Empress Dowager Cixi angrily rebuked the Guangxu Emperor, "Er actually wants to imprison my Summer Palace, And Erzhen is better off!" ”
His words were infuriating and mixed with disappointment with the Guangxu Emperor, and he should have a superficial humility and humility towards the Supreme Emperor of the Nine-Five-Year Plan.
This shows that Cixi has always been firmly in control of the Qing Dynasty. The Guangxu Emperor and the reformers led by Kang Youwei apparently received cixi's approval when they changed the law and administered the government.
This can be seen from the "Records of the Changes of the Qing Dynasty", "(Guangxu) Every time there is a piece of whiteness, the empress dowager does not speak, does not try to pretend, if something is close to the West, (the empress dowager) will know: 'Ru Dan left the ancestors of the gods not to burn, braided hair is not cut, I will not care.' ’”
It can be seen from this that Cixi has a bottom line to support the restoration and change of law. The bottom line is that she must not seize control of the government.
It was not until he saw that the Restoration faction had a heart of blood, a hundred heavens and a hundred wills, a disorderly administration, and wanted to imprison Cixi, touching and breaking the bottom line of her change of law, that she changed from disappointment to anger, suddenly returned to politics, imprisoned Guangxu, killed 6 gentlemen, and hunted down Kang and Liang all over the world.
From the development of the above events, it has been clearly shown that Empress Dowager Cixi had a strong motive to kill the Guangxu Emperor. In addition to the history, Cixi once said, "Never let Guangxu live longer than himself." ”
If You let Guangxu go, you will inevitably be counter-attacked, and even the tablet after your death may be removed from the Zongmiao Temple, thus leaving a stink for thousands of years. Only Guangxu died in front of him, and whoever inherits the unification in the future will all be decided by himself, and the power is still in the hands of his own people.
