Xuantong Emperor Puyi is the closest emperor to us, he died of illness in 1967 in the last century, the cause of death is uremia, as the last emperor of the feudal era, his life experience can be described as wonderful.
Brilliant here is not a sarcastic description, because Puyi is really too legendary, xuantong first ascended the throne as emperor, until 1917 Zhang Xun restored him to become emperor for the second time, until the establishment of the puppet state of Manchukuo, his era name "Kant" became the third emperor.
Three times as emperor, three times and then abdicated, this experience is not something that anyone can have.
It is said that the third time Puyi ascended the throne, that is, the time he defected to the Japanese, his biological father Zaifeng was so angry that he smoked seven holes, calling him a betrayal of his ancestors, colluding with outsiders, and severing the father-son relationship with him.
Puyi admitted that he had done a disgraceful job in turning to the Japanese, but he also wanted to revive the foundation of the Qing Dynasty, but he did not expect the ambitions of the Japanese wolf, which restricted his freedom from the beginning, all kinds of clamping, coercion and inducement, and many conditions he had to agree to.
Puyi's defection to the Japanese will not be discussed first, and will be discussed later, but everyone may have noticed that as the last emperor in history, Puyi did not have children, and if he had children, it should be the legal heir to the throne.
It is impossible to become emperor again, and the so-called heir to the throne is symbolic, indicating that the dragon vein has not been broken. The common people do not need an old emperor to lead them forward, what they need is a new republican system, the emperor is already a thing of the past, my lord, the times have changed.
The dragon vein is also a false proposition of the feudal era, after all, only the winner of the world is qualified to be the emperor, as long as he wins, he can say that he is the dragon vein. Even if he said that he was the Ancestral Dragon Heavenly Son, there was no problem, Qin Shi Huang had been dead for many years.
Puyi's life after his abdication was not bad, according to the "Regulations on Preferential Treatment of the Qing Dynasty", the Beiyang government had to bear all the expenses of Puyi, and in the Forbidden City, Puyi was still his emperor.
In the eleventh year of the Republic of China (1922), the seventeen-year-old Puyi married Wanrong, and Puyi also married Lady Wenxiu, according to the ancestral system of the Qing Dynasty, the emperor must be pro-government after the marriage, but this time has been more than ten years since the fall of the Qing Dynasty, the Qing Dynasty clan is no longer the ruling force, the real ruling force is actually someone else.
However, no matter what, the royal style cannot be lost, and the Beiyang government has allocated money to the Qing room to support Puyi to complete the big wedding. After marriage, Puyi has no children,
Whether it was Empress Wanrong or Lady Wenxiu, neither she nor Puyi had children.
Everyone questioned, the queen is not pregnant, the lady is not pregnant, will not be so coincidental, right? She is infertile in both of them?
However, according to the fact that Wanrong later committed adultery with Wei Wei and became pregnant, it was not her and Wenxiu's problem, and the real problem should be puyi.
On the question of his own lack of offspring, Puyi once explained in "The First Half of My Life", and I will now describe it to you from his first perspective:
"When I was a child, I was particularly noisy, and my energy was so great that I had nowhere to put it, and the eunuch in charge of guarding me was so noisy that I couldn't sleep, and at first it was fine, but after a long time, the great eunuch couldn't stand it.
In order to drain my energy, he ordered several palace ladies to come into the house and sleep with me, I had no idea about men and women, but the palace ladies had to force me to cooperate with them in order to complete the task. Over time, my body was worse than a day, when I was young, and it was the period of development of the body. ”
As you can see, it is the nature of children to play, but the eunuch dislikes Puyi and does not sleep well at night, so he thought of such a way to dissolve his energy. But I didn't expect That Puyi could not have children because of this.
It is worth mentioning that Puyi died of uremia in her later years, which is more or less related to her young experience, but there is also a saying that those palace women took the initiative to seduce Puyi in order to seduce Puyi and get more rewards.
The young Puyi, where has experienced this joy, so one after another with the palace ladies fish and water joy. After an overdoment, the root of the disease fell, which thought that it would not be able to have children for life.
We can't imagine what Puyi's mood was at that time, anyway, he couldn't give birth to a child, his heart must have been very lost, if the palace ladies didn't do that kind of thing to him, maybe he would have been full of children and grandchildren, right?
But history has no if, because Puyi can not satisfy himself, Wanrong turned to wait for Wei fornication, and gave birth to a child, Puyi who knows the truth is very angry, and the rift between husband and wife is getting bigger and bigger.
At the end of Wanrong's life, she became obsessed with smoking, she used to relieve the pressure in her heart by smoking, and finally died in a small place in Yanji, Jilin Province, when she died, none of her relatives were willing to collect her body, or a subordinate could not bear the queen like this, wrapped her up with a quilt and buried her in the back mountain.
Wanrong's final purpose is no longer possible, as the last empress of China, such an ending has made posterity lament.
Speaking of Puyi, of course, it cannot be ruled out that the change of dynasties and the psychological pressure brought by the death of the country and the family have brought to Puyi, which in turn has led to physiological defects.
But no matter what the reason, Puyi's ending is also very good among the kings of the subjugated country, not liquidated, not killed, and still lived to the age of 61.
The honor and disgrace of the individual are so powerless in the tide of history, who can guarantee that the emperor can live forever? It's like everything has a lifespan
Like fate, Puyi is just an unlucky egg who has been pushed to the forefront of history by people with hearts, and opened his life of shocking waves.
