When the Xianfeng Emperor died, Cixi was only twenty-six years old. As the first widow of the Qing Dynasty, she began to be widowed from the age of 26 until her death lasted for 47 years, when Cixi was widowed at the age of 26, her position in the imperial palace was not too good, which made her focus all her energy on fighting for power. Cixi's desire to control power grew in order to protect herself. Even to her death, Cixi was reluctant to delegate her rights, but her obsession with power could be imagined. This made Cixi devote most of her early years to the struggle for power, leaving her no time to think about male and female love.
After slowly taking the power of the Qing Dynasty into her hands, Cixi began to enjoy life. It is enough to see from the fact that she spent more than 10 million taels of silver on her 60th birthday. Empress Dowager Cixi's extravagant and eroded court life is recorded in the history books as follows: From the time when Cixi took a bath, it was said that 100 towels would be used alone, and some people who said that it was not surprising that a hundred towels were used for a bath, how to use them, and it did not matter, for Cixi, it was natural for his use, just like wiping his hands, wiping his feet Cixi never used a second time, so it was not surprising that towels could be used for hundreds.
What is even more surprising is that because I heard the doctor say that drinking human milk often can delay aging and maintain youth forever, Cixi insisted on drinking human milk every day, and never stopped until death. It has always been really extravagant, at first Cixi was worried that doing so would cause dissatisfaction among the courtiers, in order to be justified, a minister took out the matter of the Yongzheng Emperor and the Qianlong Emperor drinking human milk in that year, and everyone looked at it, we all have a precedent of taking care of our ancestors, so Lafayette drank human milk to be satisfied with what is not normal, just like this, Cixi drinking human milk has become justified and reasonable.
None of the above is anything, 19 years after Xianfeng's death, Cixi, who had been widowed for 19 years, unexpectedly became pregnant. Cixi, who was known as the empress dowager at that time, was already in power, while listening to the government for the little emperor, while using the power to recruit a lot of male pets, but did not expect that on a certain day in 1881, Cixi suddenly felt nausea in the stomach, very much wanted to vomit, and lost interest in food, all day long the whole person was also groggy, so the eunuch Li Lianying quickly called a doctor to come and see, after this doctor took the pulse, quickly prostrated his head and congratulated, Lafayette This is happy, Cixi was angry on the spot, He felt that it was a quack doctor who misjudged, so he asked someone to drag this doctor out and kill him.
Li Lianying then called the second tai doctor, this second tai doctor did not know the fate of the first tai doctor, after the pulse was also respectfully prostrated a head, congratulations to Lafayette, at this time Cixi had completely understood in her heart, it should be that she did not do a good job in intercourse, but as a widow for many years, this kind of thing was said out, so she made a look, and ordered someone to pull the third tai doctor out and kill.
After killing two tai doctors in a row, Cixi began to regret a little, since they all knew, why not let them finish the fetus for themselves before dying? But the matter has passed, there is no way, can only call the third doctor, this third doctor is a smart person, after the pulse, just said 19 words: "Lafayette just ate the stomach, be careful in the future is" Cixi is a smart person, after the operation, there is no intention of killing, but also to keep him as the chief doctor, to be his own special doctor.
However, this doctor did not dare to stay, and returned to his hometown in Wuxi overnight, pretending to die, and asking the family to do a funeral. The few great masters sent by Cixi rushed to Wuxi and saw a funeral procession, dressed in filial piety with linen belts, and raising banners and towering in a mighty and mighty manner. As soon as they inquired, they learned that the doctor had fallen ill and died after returning from the capital. They found another place outside Wuxi City, and under the guidance of passers-by, they found a new tomb with a monument to the name of Taiyi. They had no choice but to return to Beijing to hand over their orders, and after Empress Dowager Cixi heard this, she would no longer pursue them.
