The most tragic emperor in history, 16-year-old succeeded to the throne for only 5 months, was cut 1516 knives lingchi died
In ancient times, the emperor was absolutely supreme, enjoying the ultimate glory and wealth in the world, and wielding the power of life and death. Therefore, the throne is the throne that everyone is eager for, but sometimes it is very sad to be the king of the country. The following is the only emperor in ancient China who was executed by Ling Chi, who succeeded to the throne at the age of 16, reigned for only 5 months, and was cut more than 1,000 knives before he lost his breath.
At the age of 6, Hong Tianguifu began to study, but his enlightenment teacher was not erudite Hongru, but his half-sister Hong Tianjiao, who was 10 years older than him. The reason is simple, Hong Xiuquan can't see other men in and out of his harem. Later, Hong Xiuquan also wrote "Ten Salvation Poems" for Hong Tianguifu, including "Mother Farewell Cub", "Sister Farewell Brother", "Brother And Sister", "Sister-in-law Farewell Uncle" and other contents, admonishing Hong Tianguifu to "follow these Ten Salvation Commandments to practice and practice, and the heavens will always be blessed for a long time", strictly preventing the mixing of men and women, and the so-called prevention of troubles before they occur.
After the death of Hong Xiuquan, the eldest son, Hong Tianguifu, succeeded to the throne, when he was 14 years old, he became the "Young Heavenly King". Soon after receiving this heavenly king, Tianjing City fell. The young king Hong Tianguifu followed Liu Xiucheng out of Tianjing City and arrived in Huzhou, Zhejiang. In October 1864, the Qing army concentrated its superior forces to encircle and suppress the last Taiping Army, and the young king Hong Tianguifu and Hong Renzheng, and the deputy master Liu Qinghan were all captured.
In dealing with this young emperor, the Qing government adopted a very harsh punishment, and even ordered Ling Chi to execute Hong Tianfugui! In order to make an example, they escorted Hong Tianfugui to the street and nailed it to the prison cart with four nails. This is already cruel to the extreme! But even more cruel was yet to come, after which they cut the 16-year-old boy with more than a thousand knives until Hong Tianfugui died tragically, when screams filled the entire street!
