The first emperor in Chinese history was Qin Shi Huang, who, since he coined the term emperor, has become a coveted thing. In order to become emperors, many people did not hesitate to kill innocent people, and some even killed their own brothers regardless of brotherhood.
The last emperor in Chinese history was Puyi, and after his abdication, the emperor withdrew from the stage of history, and anyone who wanted to be an emperor was bound to be condemned by the whole people.
After Puyi abdicated, there was no place to go, and he still lived in the Forbidden City, and his living expenses did not have to be earned by himself, and others sent him. Although Puyi was no longer an emperor at this time, the life he lived was still the life of the emperor, even more luxurious than before.
The Beiyang warlord Feng Yuxiang was not accustomed to Puyi staying in the palace all the time, so he sent someone to drive him out. The Forbidden City was originally Puyi's home, and now that he had driven out of his home, he went to Zaifeng's source and continued to live there.
After Japan established the puppet state of Manchukuo, Puyi was taken to the puppet state of Manchukuo, where he continued to serve as emperor. Puyi was still very interested in the emperor, and after he became emperor, he was very happy in his heart.
After the new society, Puyi became a citizen, working every day to earn money, supporting his family, and living a very comfortable life. Once, Puyi wanted to visit the Forbidden City and recall his life at that time.
When Puyi entered the Forbidden City, someone stopped him and asked him for tickets, and Puyi looked confused. Later, Puyi saw that tourists were all going in with tickets, and he also bought a ticket before going in.
Puyi turned around and came to the Golden Ruan Hall, and after seeing the dragon chair, he suddenly smiled, and he remembered something. Puyi quickly ran to the front of the dragon chair, reached out and took something inside, and after a while, Puyi took out a box.
It wasn't a gold and silver box, it was just an ordinary cricket box. Cricket boxes may not be wanted by others, but for Puyi, this is his "baby".
When Puyi was a child, no one played, he could only play with crickets, which was his greatest pleasure of the day. Puyi was worried that the cricket box had been taken away, so he hid it under the dragon chair.
After Puyi left the Forbidden City, he never saw it again. Now that time flies and the past is like smoke, Puyi has found the joy of childhood again, and his heart is full of surprises.
Once people grow up, there are fewer happy things, and the things that can make them happy are only the memories of childhood. Lucky people are cured of childhood all their lives; unfortunate people are cured of childhood again in their lifetime!
