Puyi's life can be described as ups and downs, the first half of his life in the high-walled compound lost his soul, and the second half of his life was displaced and then half a life cage. He was the last emperor of the dynasty and a forced prisoner. He was put on the throne at the age of three, and he did not know what the emperor was. He just ran between the ministers like a fawn, and the word emperor was not as good as a grasshopper he had taken. The Qing Dynasty's education of royal children was very strict, not to mention Puyi, who would inherit the unification in the future. Although the dynasty declined, the education of the emperor could not be neglected in the slightest.
Every morning when he got up, Puyi would start studying for 45 minutes. Such a course is the same as our modern early reading class. PuYigui is the emperor, and his education is naturally the best of the best. In order to cultivate Puyi, he spent a lot of money to hire foreign language teachers. As a result, Puyi is proficient in many Chinese, of which English is the most serious. When Puyi was tried, she used English barrier-free throughout the trial. His Level of English is put to our modern level, he is completely international translation level.
Puyi's knowledge was also very extensive and profound, and Empress Yulong almost asked him to be proficient in everything. Occasionally Puyi was stubborn and evaded learning, and Empress Yulong would not allow Puyi to eat as a punishment. Therefore, Puyi was very good at learning among the emperors of previous dynasties. In order to let him study seriously, Empress Yulong asked her brother PuJie to accompany him to read every day. In 1912, the Qing Dynasty collapsed, and the outside world changed. However, Puyi was still the last emperor, and grew up in the Forbidden City.
But what he didn't know was that the other side of the wall had become the Republic of China. He was still studying in the Forbidden City, and he was completely out of the window. In fact, Puyi has always been a smart child, and he will learn a lot of knowledge independently and understand it at one point. His teachers are all rare talents in the world. Puyi's educational environment is impeccable, and he will also learn some knowledge from the West.
The knowledge of an emperor must be more extensive than anyone else, modern education is all targeted training, and Puyi is definitely multi-directional development. His teachers were Chinese masters of the Qing Dynasty, as well as foreigners from Oxford University. If we define Puyi's level of knowledge by saying that he did not go to college, then it is a big mistake. His education was exactly at the top of the level at the time, and others might need to go to a university for further study, and he was completely one-on-one from elementary school to college.
When other children were playful, the emperor had to study all year round. Therefore, Puyi and the average teenager at that time, the foundation of the work is not the same. Puyi once mentioned in his autobiography that he wanted to become a doctor, but he later became a gardener. It can be seen that in addition to having a good grasp of professional knowledge, Puyi also has a number of skills. He healed the sick and repaired the flowers. In 1959, Puyi became an ordinary person.
The emperor's two words were completely erased from his head, and he went to Beijing like an ordinary old man to apply for a household registration. However, when the field of academic qualifications is filled in, the staff is embarrassed. To say that Puyi has learned amazingly, he has not studied for a day. To write Puyi as illiterate, Puyi is only eight buckets high. After much deliberation, the staff filled in the word junior high school.
In fact, Puyi culture is far greater than the junior high school level, there have been experts to judge puyi's cultural level, only gave twelve words: "Puyi level, we can only look back." It can be seen from this that if it were not for the chaotic world, Puyi would also be a literate and erudite emperor.
