Most of our modern people's understanding and imagination of the court life of the Qing Dynasty comes from the court dramas that have been popular in recent years. In court dramas, there are specific descriptions of the royal nobles, and there are presentations about their daily lives and living conditions. There are various details of the former and harem palaces. With these scenes presented, we think that we have touched the truth of court life in the Qing Dynasty, that we know enough about those histories.
However, in fact, what we did not expect is that perhaps these court dramas will have a wrong orientation for the real life of the Qing court, leading to our wrong understanding of the history and culture of that time. The truth about that era is known only to those who have truly lived from that era. A few years ago, there was a Qing Dynasty Gege named Jin Moyu, who used her own real experience to expose the wrong information in those film and television dramas to the public. Jin Moyu said that the emperor's daughter is not called Gege, so what is it called? What other mistakes are there in the Qing Palace drama? Today, let's take a look.
The division of the grid
The Qing Palace dramas we have watched since childhood have conveyed a message to us that the emperor's daughter is called Gege, and the title of Gege is like the princess who was called to us before, they have the same status. The difference is that in those plots, not only is the emperor's daughter called Gege, the prince's daughter is also called Gege, and even the daughter of a lower-ranking prince is also called Gege. So, in real history, are these people all qualified?
In fact, the Qing Dynasty did have many daughters of different identities who were called Gege, but these Gege were also hierarchical. The Prince's daughter was Heshuo Gege, followed by Dorogge, GushanGege, and Wugege. It can be seen from this that these personalities are not directly related to the emperor himself, and belong to the daughters of the clan, not the daughters of the royal family. The real emperor's daughters were the daughters of harem concubines, who were of a higher rank, princess Heshuo.
Therefore, in those Qing Palace dramas we watch, it is obviously wrong to make the emperor's daughter a Gege. Even in the Qing Dynasty court, where Ge Ge was everywhere, Ge Ge and the princess could not be compared.
Trendy grid
There were so many grids in the Qing Dynasty, so were there any different grids? Of course, the protagonist of our story today, Jin Moyu, is such a different and trendy gege. Jin Moyu was the last Gege of the Qing Dynasty, the biological daughter of Prince Su, who witnessed the demise of the Qing government.
Jin Moyu was born in prince Su's feudal family, the eldest daughter of the family. Since childhood, she has been very disgusted by the backward red tape at home, every day in the morning and dusk to make her tired, every time she eats in an orderly manner, she is overwhelmed. At home, she never put up a shelf of boxes, in her opinion, using the advantage of blood to be domineering is an act of arrogance and rudeness.
Under the influence of such a personality, when receiving education, Jin Moyu selectively accepted a new type of education. She advocated freedom, equality, and democracy, she hated the strict feudal hierarchy, resolutely opposed arranged marriages that her parents ordered her to marry, and longed for the atmosphere of open civilization abroad.
Because Jin Moyu liked it and the family also had the conditions to support her, her father sent her and several siblings to study abroad. It is a pity that the life of foreign paper drunk fans has made these children sink, and one or two have squandered the money supported by the family. In order to maintain a basic life, Jin Moyu had to work herself. She learned to knit sweaters and sell sweaters, she opened Western restaurants and Sichuan restaurants, until she later went to work in the Central Compilation Bureau, and Jin Moyu's life was completely stable.
Although the work is very hard, there are many things to do every day, but Jin Moyu herself is a very optimistic person, in addition to busy work, she will also enjoy life romantically. In her spare time, she can read and write poetry, learn to paint, and do many things related to art. Although Jin Moyu is not professional in these things, she believes that this is something that can bring her joy, and it will not be changed.
Jin Moyu, who enjoys life and pursues romance, has experienced two marriages in her life, the first marriage ended because of the chaos of the Cultural Revolution, and the second marriage was accompanied by her husband to the whitehead. Looking back on her second marriage, Jin Moyu said: "Even though I have experienced a failed marriage, I still have the most beautiful fantasies and expectations for love. So, after meeting my second husband, I still used all my enthusiasm to burn myself and release my love. ”
Indicates an error
As we said earlier, Jin Moyu has a wide range of hobbies, one of which is watching TV. As a well-known Qing Dynasty gege, Qing Palace drama is naturally deeply loved by her. When watching these TV series, Jin Moyu will think back to her own life and the real Qing Dynasty clan life. After comparing the scenes presented in the TV series with her own life experience, Jin Moyu was surprised to find that there were many places in the original TV series that were wrong.
One of the most important mistakes is the title of the emperor and princess in the TV series. The reason for the error is that the emperor's daughter is not called Gege, but a princess; second, the tone of Gege's voice is wrong. According to Jin Moyu, although Gege writes two-tone words, it is pronounced as a one-tone sound. That is to say, in the real Qing Dynasty court, people's pronunciation of Gege is actually the same as that of "brother", which is a sound. Nowadays, when people shoot TV series, they may see that the text records that it is the grid of two voices, so when filming, it is the two voices that shout out.
In addition to this mistake, there is also a mistake in that after the master issues the order, the slave answers "meow" is problematic. In true court life, the slaves did not say "chirping". So how do they say they have heard their master's command? They say "huh." The word "嗻", compared with "嗻", has a smaller curvature of the mouth and emits a lighter sound, which is in line with the characteristics of the slaves who are only non-committal and condescending.
It is precisely because of these discoveries that the later Jin Moyu did not like to see the palace drama very much, because she felt that these could not restore a real history at all.
epilogue
Jin Moyu's discovery gives us a revelation, if you want to really understand the history of a period of time, you can't take shortcuts to watch film and television dramas. After all, there are elements of artistic processing in film and television dramas, elements of speculation by future generations, and elements of subjective emotions. Therefore, when studying history, we should still take the basis of historical data as the standard.
