The Qing Dynasty as the last feudal dynasty in China, Ai Xinjue Luoshi has been wearing the aura of royalty, the Qing Dynasty has been dead for more than a hundred years, and now some people still use this surname as a golden signboard, speculation, very marketable. But when the Qing Emperor abdicated, people's attitudes towards the surname "Ai XinJue Luo" were completely different from today.
The ordinary people of that year did not have any good feelings for these members of the imperial family, and blamed them for China's backwardness and beating in modern times, so no one dared to tell others that their surnames were "Ai Xin Jue Luo" or "Yehenara", all of which were hidden, for fear of being found out that they were descendants of the imperial family and causing disaster. In order to avoid disasters, the surname "Ai Xin Jue Luo" changed his surname to "Jin", or "Zhao", "YeHenara" changed his surname to "Na" or "Ye", although there are hundreds of thousands of descendants of ai Xin Jue Luo, but there are few who really have the surname "Ai Xin Jue Luo".
In fact, "Ai Xin Jue Luo" was originally only a small surname in the Manchus, and it was not ranked at all in the eight surnames of the Manchus, such as the "Niu Cobalt Lu Clan" to which He yan belonged, and the "Tong Jia Clan" of Tong Guifei, the birth mother of the Kangxi Emperor, who was only in the eight surnames of the Manchus. As a surname, "Ai Xin" means gold in Manchu, so later people have to change their surname to "Jin", and some people choose the first surname "Zhao" among the hundred family names.
The manchu royal family's hometown was in the northeast, but after the fall of the Qing Dynasty, they did not move back on a large scale, but continued to stay in the places where they lived, such as Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei. But the behavior of these royal descendants will be relatively low-key, unwilling to mention their special lineage too much, in their view, it is already a thing of the past, and it is the most important thing to live a good life in the present.
The ninth grandson of the Yongzheng Emperor, Qi Gong, a master of Chinese calligraphy and painting, did not want to mention his royal status, he said, "Since my name is Qi Gong, of course, my surname is Qi Gong." If someone wrote to him with the name "Ai Xin Jue luo", he refused to accept it, saying that "there is no such person" to be found.
But not everyone will be so low-key, in a remote town in the northeast, The Village of Nita is inhabited by a large number of descendants of the Manchu Qing royal family, and almost all of the people here are surnamed Jin. It is said that this Ai Xinjue Luo clan originally lived in the capital, but later fled to Guanwai due to a murder lawsuit and took refuge here. They were deeply proud of their status as descendants of the imperial family, felt that the emperors of the Qing Dynasty were very diligent, and regarded Kangxi as an emperor throughout the ages.
In addition to having a special affection for the Qing Dynasty, these people also retained a lot of Manchu royal traditions in their diet and living, and they absolutely could not speak with a big grin, avoid dog skins, avoid eating dog meat, hang portraits of Qing emperors at home, catch up with some important days and sacrifice ancestors, and even in order to protect the purity of imperial blood, they hope that their children will only find Manchus.
It can be seen that for the descendants of the Manchu Qing royal family living in Nita Village, this is their spiritual sustenance.
