According to common sense, an emperor who dies violently at the age of twenty-four without obvious illness or accident is bound to give rise to all kinds of doubts. Even the Guangxu Emperor, who was treated as a puppet by Cixi all his life, hated by the enemies of the country, and had a difficult and tragic fate, lived to be poisoned at the age of thirty-eight. Therefore, Shunzhi's death has also become a major mystery in the history of the Qing Dynasty. So, what about Shunzhi? Today, Xiaobian will discuss it with you.
There have been various theories in history about Shunzhi's death. One theory is that the Shunzhi Emperor was suppressed by Dorgon for a long time and died of depression at an early age; others believe that Shunzhi's beloved Dong Xiaowanxiang died of jade, causing him to suffer excessive grief and die after his concubine. There is also a kind of "monastic saying", saying that the Shunzhi Emperor is actually fine, he gave up the throne and fled into the empty door. Fake illness death, true monks, official and folk records need to be falsified in accordance with Shunzhi's will, Xiaobian believes that even if it is fake, it is impossible for archives and documents to not contain a single flaw. It was rumored that Shunzhi was infected with a vicious disease and died of smallpox, but the imperial court did not make a clear explanation. As a result, the end of the Shunzhi Emperor became a historical mystery.
Xiao Wanfeifei: According to the records of anecdotal and wild history, Shunzhi did not die of smallpox, but in the name of fake death, he got rid of the world, went to Mount Wutai to become a monk, and lived until he was seventy-four years old. According to Ye Shi, Shunzhi was born because of the death of his beloved Concubine Dong, which made him silent and bitter. Because he saw dong Xiaowan after his death in his sleep that Dong Xiaowan went to Mount Wutai, the Shunzhi Emperor chose to follow Concubine Ai to Mount Wutai to cultivate the Buddha. This argument is actually unreliable.
Dong Xiaowan did have her own person, she was a famous prostitute in Jiangnan, and later married one of the "four princes of the late Ming Dynasty" as a concubine. After Dong Xiaowan's death, He Peijiang wrote "The Remembrance of Yingmei'an", which recorded his redemption for Xiaowan, the life of the two displaced in the war, and the tragic experience of Dong Xiaowan's death. The same record is also recorded with the celebrities of the era of the invasion of Xinjiang. According to Mao's account, Dong Xiaowan was fourteen years older than Shunzhi and died on the second day of the first lunar month of the eighth year of Shunzhi, when Shunzhi was only fourteen years old, and according to the ancestral system of the Qing Dynasty, he had not yet reached the age of marriage. Therefore, Dong Xiaowan could not enter the palace and become Shunzhi's concubine as recorded in the history of the wild. On this basis, it is clear that the theory of Shunzhi's monasticism cannot be established.
Smallpox: According to the Records of the Ancestors of the Qing Dynasty, the eighteenth year of Shunzhi was recorded on the seventh day of the first lunar month, and the zi carved and collapsed in the Yangxin Hall." There is also circumstantial evidence that because the Shunzhi Emperor was dying smallpox, the imperial court ordered that the folk fried beans be prohibited. On the death of the Shunzhi Emperor, Wang Xi, a scholar in charge of the Hanlin Academy, drafted a will and testament. The "Self-Written Chronology" compiled by Wang Xi detailed the incident: "Suffering from pox is bound to be unaffordable. Erke listened carefully to the words and quickly wrote the edict: "Wang Xi retreated to the Western Weiping under the Qianqing Gate, followed the dictation of the Shunzhi Emperor and drafted a will, drafted one, and immediately submitted it for preview." One day and one night, three times, three times. The edict was not written and revised until the evening of the seventh day of the first month. The Shunzhi Emperor died that night.
Judging from various remarks, Xiaobian believes that the Shunzhi Emperor should not have been ordained but died of smallpox. Shunzhi is a man who is willful and fragile, amorous and sentimental, and he has involuntarily become a center of power since he was a child, and the affection he gets is always mixed with the taste of power. After the death of the only beloved Concubine Dong, his short life also came to an end. What do you think about that?
