In 2012, a Dalian man named He Qingling, wearing a robe and a horse coat and dragging a large braid, appeared on a blind date program called "Let's Date".
In the program, he was full of arrogance between his words, and his demeanor was imitating the "brothers" in the Qing Palace drama, and he did not pay attention to the people present at all.
As soon as He Qingling came to power, he explained to everyone his identity as a descendant of Cixi, and explained to everyone that the purpose of his trip was to "choose a concubine" for himself like his ancestors.
As soon as this remark came out, everyone present was shocked, and the host Qiu Qiming's expression was even more surprised, which was unheard of and unseen in his hosting career.
In the eyes of everyone in disbelief, He Qingling was unmoved and continued to make his own "crazy" remarks.
Before the male and female guests communicate, a short film about his personal experience needs to be played, and after the short film is played, the host asks him curiously: "I am curious about a question, how do you live without work and income?" ”
He Qingling said a little arrogantly, "Have you ever seen the relatives of the Emperor and the State working for the commoners?" If I were to work, I would be ashamed of our royal family. ”
This answer stunned everyone present. The host, feeling a little incomprehensible, continued to ask him: "Who are you referring to by civilians?" ”
Unexpectedly, the answer given by He Qingling made the people present angry and funny.
He smiled at the audience and said, "If only you had been my subordinates more than a hundred years ago." ”
This sentence almost made people feel that the three views were ruined, but the person himself did not perceive embarrassment and impropriety, and he continued to say arrogantly: "In the capacity of my brother, if in ancient times, all of you would kneel to me!" ”
The host stared at He Qingling in disbelief, and he could not have imagined that in the modern society that now advocates equality for all, there will be people who will openly make superior remarks on television.
The host's expression was out of control on the spot, and at the same time as his face was full of question marks, he probably wanted to say a word - is this person afraid that he is not sick?
One of the girls present was amused by his behavior, and when He Qingling found out, he got angry at the smiling girl, saying that they were disrespectful to the royal family, and said that if this matter was shelved 100 years ago, it would be beheaded.
He Qingling said that if he wanted to eliminate his sins, he must immediately kowtow to him and make amends, but no one paid attention to him.
According to the custom of the show, the host asked him what kind of girl he hoped to find as a partner, and he said very seriously: "In terms of my noble status, the concubine I hope must be a talented woman, only such a person can understand my current behavior, and I will definitely take this feeling seriously in the future." ”
As soon as this remark came out, it caused everyone to laugh, everyone thought that He Qingling had come to be funny, and some people thought that he was very funny.
Let's not say whether what he said is true or not, just this courage makes the audience feel very magical.
However, after He Qingling said this, all 24 female guests on the stage silently extinguished their lights, although He Qingling said that he did not understand, but he could only leave the stage in a gray and slippery manner.
He Qingling said in the program that he was from the Yehlala clan, and his ancestors were a distant relative of Empress Dowager Cixi.
Although He Qingling's ancestors were not prominent, he believed that his ancestors had some blood ties with Empress Dowager Cixi, so if he insisted that he was a descendant of Cixi, it would be understandable.
However, he called himself "Brother Eight" and said that he was a royal family, which was really untenable.
The surname of the imperial family of the Qing Dynasty was Ai Xin Jueluo, and no matter which empress and empress dowager's family members were not qualified to say that they were members of the imperial family, even if they were relatives of Empress Dowager Cixi, so He Qingling's "royal" component could not stand up to scrutiny.
Even if you say that you are an "imperial relative", that is enough, Empress Dowager Cixi has been dead for more than a hundred years, and He Qingling's ancestors are only surnamed Yehenara, if you really want to say that you are an "imperial relative", it is really far from the relationship, maybe it is not as good as liu bei and Liu Sheng, the king of Zhongshan Jing.
The second is the title of "Eight Brothers", Manchu parents have always had the habit of calling their children "Brothers", according to this understanding, He Qingling's so-called "Brother Eight" is probably the meaning of "Old Eight" - this is reasonable.
But if you want to regard this as the identity of the prince, it is a big mistake again. First of all, he is not the son of the emperor, how to become the "Eight Brothers"?
It should be known that on February 12, 1912, Empress Longyu and Emperor Xuantong issued an abdication edict, marking the official withdrawal of the Qing Dynasty from the stage of history, and the thousand-year-long feudal imperial system was also declared over.
More than a hundred years later, He Qingling jumped out again, which door was he "prince"?
The collapse of the Qing Dynasty brought democracy to the people and to the Manchu nobles.
When the revolutionary army was about to break through the gates of Beijing, these pedantic aristocrats who had lived all their lives in the Forbidden City fled back to the northeast with their families and lived the lives of ordinary people with hidden names.
Most of the Manchu Qing nobles who fled the country sinicized their names and changed them to some common Han surnames.
For example, "Ai Xin Jue LuoShi" became "Jin", "Luo", "Rong", etc., while Empress Dowager Cixi's "Yehenara Clan" was changed to "Ye", "Na", "He".
Some people have long accepted the reality, while some people have expressed their reluctance and hope that one day they will "make a comeback".
Therefore, in these years, there will always be some "imperial relatives and state relatives" who can't be beaten by eight rods, and they will try their best to get together, thinking that they can join the ranks of the superior people, but in fact, in the eyes of others, it is just a big joke.
These people spread the "high and low" remarks in society, and the most famous one is probably He Qingling.
He Qingling was born in Dalian, Liaoning Province, to an ordinary peasant family.
When he was young, because of his poor academic performance, he dropped out of school and entered the society very early, because he did not have a skill, he could only go to work in the factory, and the factory could only give him a salary that was barely enough to make ends meet.
He works at the Dalian Locomotive Factory, an ordinary auto repairman, although the income is not high, but at first it is comfortable, so he will hang out in the nearby village when there is nothing to do.
By chance, he heard a group of old men and old ladies chatting, and he learned that the villagers in this village were almost all descendants of the Manchu Qing royal family, and they all said that the people here were of noble blood and were descendants of Qing dynasty nobles.
And when they saw He Qingling, a young man, they asked about his ethnicity and surname, he said that he was Manchu, surnamed He, so an old man exclaimed: "Your ancestors are most likely yellow flag nobles, and there are many surnames of Na, Nan and He in your village, these surnames are changed from the Yehenara clan, maybe you are the descendant of Empress Dowager Cixi, you are unspeakably expensive!" ”
The speaker was unintentional, the listener was intentional, and the old man was actually just casually speaking at that time, but He Qingling was very excited to hear it.
After he returned home, he was so excited that he couldn't sleep, so he turned out the family tree overnight to verify, and finally found that his ancestor's real surname was Yehenara, which was the surname of Empress Dowager Cixi!
This discovery made He Qingling suddenly surge with blood and hot heads, and from this moment on, He Qingling no longer wanted to be a nameless youngster, and made up his mind to change his face and become a new person.
He thought that he had the blood of the nobility, and that identity was naturally different, so he was no longer the ordinary person who did nothing in the past, and from now on, he was a superior nobleman and the "Eight Brothers" of the Qing Emperor.
So he first bought a set of "aristocratic heads" from the Internet - that is, a yellow folding fan, similar to the horse coats of the Qing Dynasty brothers. Then, according to the dress in the Qing Palace drama, he shaved his hair, hung a long braid behind him, and began to imitate the words and deeds of the "Brother" in the Qing Palace drama.
After everything was ready, he announced his aristocratic status to the outside world, saying that he was a descendant of Empress Dowager Cixi and a "brother of eight brothers" with noble blood.
Usually, he wears his own clothes to work, eats, and lives, and when people around him are puzzled and strange to him, he is very serious about explaining his identity to the other party, but it causes everyone to laugh.
The workers teased him: "You are all relatives of the emperor and the state, why do you still work for the boss?" The boss is an ordinary businessman! ”
Originally, this was just a joke from the workers, but when He Qingling heard it, he felt that it was very reasonable, how could he work for a lowly businessman as an aristocrat. The next day he came to the unit and presented a resignation to the leader of the unit, in his own words: "I am already a nobleman, how can a nobleman go to work?" ”
The leader looked at He Qingling, who was braided and still wearing Qing Dynasty costumes, and thought that he was suffering from mental illness, and hurriedly "invited" him out of the office.
However, He Qingling only said dismissively: "This was put before, and your head could not be saved." ”
Since his resignation, people around him have been able to see him every morning, dressed in Qing Dynasty costumes and holding a bird cage in their hands, wandering leisurely in the park or by the river.
Everyone thinks that there is something wrong with this person, not only is he dressed strangely, but his behavior is incomprehensible.
He pretends to be the "Eight Brothers" every time, and some good people still learn to bow down to him like in the TV series, which attracts a lot of passers-by to watch and be curious, and sometimes even needs the police to come forward to evacuate the crowd.
Under this kind of attention, He Qingling's vanity was rapidly inflated, and he began to delve into the "Manchu Royal Etiquette" and wanted to make his speech and demeanor look more in line with the image of the nobility.
But after he lost his job, he immersed himself in fantasies all day, but reality told him that the balance was not much.
But He Qingling did not think so, thinking that money was a common thing, how could he go out to work regardless of the face of his ancestors?
As a result, He Qingling could only "punch the swollen face and fill the fat man".
When some relatives and friends noticed his change, they rushed to persuade him to stop this sensationalism, hoping that he could live his life well and not do such senseless things.
But He Qingling did not listen to his friend's words, and also scolded his friend with a dog's bloody head, and righteously said to his friends: "I am inheriting the ancestral culture!" ”
When these words are said, no one can persuade them anymore, otherwise they will not respect the family culture of others.
As a result, He Qingling became more and more comfortable, and his strange behavior attracted more and more media attention, and various reports were made on him, and he began to make a small reputation in the local area.
As his fame grew, he became more and more noticed, with some scorning him and some expressing envy for him.
The attention of the crowd made him begin to become more and more arrogant, and he was even more fully exposed when participating in the TV show, and he was ugly, and finally had to leave the scene.
When the host asked one of the female guests why they chose to turn off the lights.
The female guest replied: "I feel that he has been posing like a high man from the moment he took the stage, as if everyone here was inferior to him, and I don't like that very much." ”
When the TV director turned the camera to He Qingling, the staff asked him how he felt about the failure.
He Qingling still posed the proud and complacent look he had before, and said: "None of these female guests have a vision, they did not choose me, it is their loss, it turns out that these people are not blessed." ”
This remark made the people present feel ridiculous again, and everyone thought that there might be something wrong with his spirit.
When this episode was broadcast, it caused an uproar in society. Everyone thinks that He Qingling is just a beam-jumping clown, and his behavior is just sensationalism.
Later, he participated in "Do Not Disturb" and continued to hype up.
But there are also some who have raised different views, believing that his outrageous behavior and remarks were intentional by the program team.
Of course, this statement is not unreasonable, because variety shows like "Let's Date" and "Do Not Disturb" have been recorded before they are broadcast, so we see works that have been edited by the director.
That is to say, these are what the program group wants the audience to see, and the alternative image of He Qingling can be exchanged for more attention and ratings, and He Qingling's subsequent appearance on other blind date variety shows is ironclad evidence.
But in any case, He Qingling's reputation is also getting worse and worse every day.
Perhaps unable to stand the pressure of public opinion, perhaps his image is no longer novel, and then there are fewer and fewer reports on him, He Qingling began to slowly hide his figure, and the rumored "Eight Brothers" gradually disappeared from people's vision.
In general, He Qingling's various behaviors are caused by his good and bad work, and he delusionally wants to become a "superior person" by virtue of his illusory "aristocratic" status, but in fact it is just a false dream.
If you want to get a good life and the respect of others, you can only rely on your own down-to-earth work and life.
After more than a hundred years of the qing dynasty, some people will stop dreaming of the so-called superior nobility!
