To say that the darkest period of modern China, the rule of the late Qing Dynasty must be among them. The Qing government not only signed a large number of unequal treaties with the great powers, but also cracked down on the internal rebel forces against the foreigners, squeezed the people, and revolutions also broke out, and pioneers such as Sun Yat-sen and Liao Yaoxiang stepped forward to overthrow the decadent rule of the Qing government. The last emperor Puyi was just a pawn from beginning to end, his life was turbulent and displaced, until after the founding of New China, he really enjoyed the rights of a citizen. Premier Zhou once met with the emperor, the premier asked him what profession he wanted to do, Puyi's answer was surprising, Premier Zhou rejected his request after careful consideration, and the two professions proposed by Puyi became popular occupations today.
Puyi did not live for himself for most of his life, and he ascended to the throne at the age of three, although there were no longer Puyi's restrictions around him, but the ambitious people in the DPRK appeared one after another, and he could only exist as a symbolic emperor. Five years old is still the age of ignorance for most children, but he wrote down his own edicts under the threat of his ministers, the Qing Dynasty failed to continue because of his own edicts, and the outbreak of the Wuchang Uprising completely crushed its crumbling foundation. After the establishment of the Beiyang government, Puyi was given preferential treatment by many warlords, who each had their own thoughts and wanted to become the supreme emperor, especially led by Yuan Shikai, but those who tried to restore the country with a dismal retirement.
The major warlords fight with each other, Puyi has been living a life of fear, there is no shortage of survival materials, beautiful women are also provided by the warlords, he knows that he is just a pawn of interests, for Feng Yuxiang, Duan Qirui and others, he still has the value of use. After several large-scale warlord wars occurred within the Beiyang government, the Anhui warlords were finally out of the game, forming a situation of direct competition, Feng Yuxiang had no mercy for the emperor, and directly drove Puyi out of the Forbidden City, which also made Puyi begin to contact the Japanese, and the Japanese invaders long hoped to find a breakthrough and find a reason for the invasion.
With the outbreak of the 918 incident, Puyi was also taken to the northeast by the Japanese, once again reduced to a puppet, became the nominal ruler of the puppet state of Manchukuo, in fact, he did not have any power, life and death were completely in the hands of the Japanese army, he also kept in mind what the Japanese army did, after seeing the reality of China, he gradually let go of the heart of restoration, and only wanted to expose the inhumane behavior of the Japanese. After the victory of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, Puyi attended the International Military Tribunal to try the invaders of World War II, providing a lot of evidence exposing the crimes of the Japanese.
During the Liberation War, Puyi and a large number of Japanese troops were captured by the Soviet Red Army and once again lived a life of imprisonment for several years. It was not until after the founding of New China that Puyi was able to return to the motherland because he had been in league with the Japanese army, and the central government, considering that he had identified the behavior of the Japanese, did not imprison him, but let him receive a ten-year labor education. Ten years of labor reform life also allowed Puyi to completely reform himself, deeply realized his past mistakes, under the inspection of Chairman Mao and other leaders, Puyi ended ten years of labor reform life.
Considering Puyi's special status, the central government sent Premier Zhou to communicate with Puyi and ask him if he had any needs in life. Puyi was sincere in his attitude and also proposed to the premier his desire to find a position. Premier Zhou asked him what he wanted to do, and Puyi said he wanted to be a doctor or a docent of the Forbidden City. Puyi has learned some medical knowledge in the life of labor reform, but it cannot be compared with professionals, Premier Zhou considered the professionalism of doctors, if Puyi fails to treat patients successfully, he will definitely be criticized, so he politely rejected Puyi.
As for becoming a docent of the Forbidden City, it is feasible for ordinary people, but Puyi as the last emperor, his identity has received the attention of the whole people, some people are curious, and some people are resentful of everything that the Qing government brought to China, if Puyi explains in the Forbidden City, it will definitely lead to crowding and other situations, which is not conducive to maintaining order, and can not protect his personal safety well. Premier Zhou explained the reasons for him in detail, and Puyi accepted it calmly. Through state arrangements, Puyi, together with many Kuomintang generals, engaged in the study of literature and history, providing a large amount of key materials for China's study of revolutionary history.
The two positions proposed by Puyi are very professional occupations today, doctors need to receive several years of university education, but also need a long period of work grinding, and the Forbidden City docent also needs a wealth of knowledge and professional ability, both professions are very popular. This also shows the rapid development of the motherland, this development trend will continue, the motherland will steadily advance on the road of prosperity and strength, and the great Chinese dream will be realized!
