We know that as the last emperor of the Qing Dynasty, Puyi finally left the palace not voluntarily, but was forced to leave under strong pressure from the outside.
Because after Puyi announced his abdication, he still enjoyed a lot of care from the Republic of China, including some special subsidies and security issues for the Qing Dynasty imperial family at that time. The reason why the Republic of China did this at that time was to thank the Qing Dynasty royal family for taking the initiative to abdicate and avoid a lot of unnecessary trouble.
In the end, it was also because of the changes of the times that Puyi could not continue to live in the palace, so if Puyi, who was in love with xinjue Luo, was not "forced into the palace", how long would he still live in the Forbidden City? Here, the author has compiled a group of old photos of Puyi living in the Forbidden City, which may tell us the answer.
This photo is relatively rare, people may not know who is shooting at first glance, in fact, the child in costume above the photo is Puyi in childhood, and the following one who plays with him is Runqi.
This photo is a photo of Puyi after he is a little older, feeling that he is playing wrestling or hide-and-seek games with his friends, Puyi fiercely pressed his little partner under his body, and then turned his head to look at the camera expressionlessly and took this photo.
This photo is a young Puyi is concentrating on reading, and there is a black hound lying on the ground below, but it is unknown whether this photo is posed, because it feels that Puyi did not seem to be so diligent about reading. And we also noticed a very interesting feature, we can see that the wooden window behind Puyi seems to have been installed with glass.
This photo is taken of the famous Puyi's British teacher Johnston with him, Puyi always habitually wears his round black small sunglasses, so that people can not see his eyes, do not know what the young emperor is thinking, but although the lens is relatively blurry, and relatively far away, but we can still feel that Johnston is smiling in front of the camera, and Puyi is expressionless.
To know that this Johnston teacher for the young Puyi influence can be said to be relatively large, he passed a lot of new things in the West to the young Puyi, which to a certain extent opened up Puyi's vision and thinking, and later after leaving Puyi, Johnston returned to his own country, but also published a book about the last imperial palace of the Qing Dynasty and puyi in the palace, and sold for a long time, Johnston also made a lot of money, of course, this is the last word.
And this photo shows the young Puyi wearing a white dress and practicing martial arts. Only to see Puyi practicing his moves, wearing black cloth shoes, it seems that there is still a little bit of martial arts master's meaning of being a high-ranking person in the world.
And in these old photos about Puyi living in the imperial palace, we can feel very clearly, although the Qing Dynasty at that time has perished. Within the walls of the imperial palace, Puyi was still living a free life. I believe that that period of time for Puyi himself, must be relatively happy, and more memorable a period of time.
Therefore, the author believes that if Puyi had not been forced into the palace later, then he would almost likely have lived in the palace all the time, and there would be no idea of going out at all, because from these photos, we can see that Puyi's life at that time was too comfortable and carefree.
