There were twelve emperors in the Qing Dynasty, why there were only ten tablets, and one lost one was not recognized

In the long history of mainland antiquity, there were many dynasties, but if we had to say which dynasty was a very familiar existence, we would probably all choose the Qing Dynasty! The history of the Qing Dynasty is very close to us, and it is precisely because of this that many things of the Qing Dynasty have been preserved, and we can also carry out relative literary creations from these histories, and step by step let us realize this dynasty.

There were twelve emperors in the Qing Dynasty, why there were only ten tablets, and one lost one was not recognized

Someone once joked that the emperors of the previous dynasties, she only had the emperors of the Qing Dynasty, she could count them from beginning to end, and the emperors of other dynasties could not do it. In fact, this seems to be the common understanding of most people. There were a total of twelve emperors in the Qing Dynasty, and when the last emperor, Puyi, abdicated, it was a total of two hundred and ninety-six years. Later, the Xuantong Emperor abdicated, and the Qing Dynasty really withdrew from the stage of history.

The building we call the Forbidden City today was also the Forbidden City of the Manchu Qing Dynasty many years ago. In the Forbidden City, there is a palace that places the tablets of all the emperors of the Qing Dynasty, but it is curious that in this place, there are two tablets missing. The two tablets that are missing, one is the tablet of the Qianlong Emperor, who does not exist because he does not know when he lost it. The other tablet is the uncensioned tablet of the Xuantong Emperor.

Qianlong's tablet is very interesting, it is said that this tablet was placed in the Taimiao Temple. But in 1914, the eunuch in charge of managing the Temple of Taimiao wanted to sell cultural relics from the Temple, so he found a German antique dealer. Together, the antique dealer did not want any utensils or anything like that, but instead asked the eunuch to bring Qianlong's tablet out of the Forbidden City. After that, Qianlong's tablet followed the antique dealer to Germany. Later, the antique dealer died, and the family did not understand the significance of this tablet, so they put it in the cellar. Later, because of the search of people with hearts, this tablet reappeared in front of the world.

Later, at the auction in 2005, the Chinese auctioned the cultural relics for four million yuan, thus bringing qianlong's tablet back to China. After Qianlong's tablets were recovered, there was only one less tablet in this temple. Then why can't Puyi's tablet be placed in the Taimiao Temple? In fact, it is still a matter of the times, Puyi once became an emperor, but his days as emperors were too short to be an emperor at all. Moreover, his identity is also an issue.

Puyi was the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, but he was also the false emperor of the puppet state of Manchukuo, not to mention, and was later taken into a war criminal prison as a war criminal. A last emperor with such an experience and life, his tablet appeared in the Taimiao Temple, it was really a little inappropriate. Therefore, for these reasons, the Qing Emperor Tablet of taimiao is still one less after all.
