As we all know, the Guangxu Emperor had two concubines, named Zhenfei and Concubine Jin, which were a pair of sisters. In 1900, before Cixi fled, she forcibly shoved Zhenfei into a well and killed her on the grounds that "Zhenfei was young and beautiful, and she would be insulted by foreigners and ashamed of her ancestors."
But I am afraid that what Cixi did not expect was that Puyi, who was personally helped to the dragon chair by herself, almost married Zhenfei's niece as empress, and she was Tang Yiying. Born in the fourth year after Zhenfei's death, she was not impressed with Zhenfei, but she had very deep feelings for Jinfei, calling Jinfei "aunt daddy", and she was raised by Jinfei in the palace since childhood, and Puyi was a green plum bamboo horse.
When Puyi reached the age of marriage, Tang Yiying became a popular candidate, and Puyi also had a lot of feelings for Tang Yiying. But no one expected that at this moment, Concubine Jin stood up and stopped the marriage between the two. As for why? No one knows.
But one thing is certain, because Princess Jin knows Tang Yiying very well, she must think that she is inappropriate. As a result, Tang Yiying lost the opportunity to become an "empress", but fate made a big joke to her at this time, perhaps to compensate her, Tang Yiying was assigned to Puyi's younger brother Pujie and became Puyi's younger sister-in-law!
I don't know if this joke is a little big. Tang Yiying is three years older than Pu Jie, although the folk saying: female junior, holding gold bricks. But this is not suitable for the "Emperor's House". Pu Jie once recalled the scene when he first got married, saying: Inexplicably kowtowing to the "hairmaker who refers to marriage", he had to be like a puppet, choose an auspicious day, bring a dowry, wear a former Qing crown robe and shoes, surrounded by palace guards, officials, chiefs, and small eunuchs, go to his father-in-law's mother-in-law's house to accept employment...
Pu Jie was only 17 years old at the time, and it was understandable to describe the marriage scene in this way. As for Tang Yiying, she does not look up to Pu Jie at all, because her personality is strong and she likes to be unrestrained - of course, behind this unrestrained, it needs strong financial support.
The two have only been married for two years, not to mention "holding gold bricks", and even the mind of complaining to each other is gone, and the marriage is already extinct in name only. Just at this moment, a brother of the Dancing Prince walked into Tang Yiying's vision, this person was handsome and dashing, wanted money and money, wanted power and power, it was Zhang Xueliang!
According to Zhang Xueliang's recollection in his later years, he met Pujie and Tang Yiying in 1926 at the Beijing Hotel. Then, Tang Yiying instigated Pujie and invited Zhang Xueliang to come to his home as a guest.
I am afraid that at this moment, Pu Jie, like his brother Puyi, is still making various attempts to restore the rule of the Qing court. Pu Jie readily agreed, after all, to be able to catch Zhang Xueliang was equivalent to contacting the "Land of Longxing" (The Three Eastern Provinces) of the Eight Banners, which might be useful in the future.
Zhang Xueliang was even more pleased to visit, but he was attracted by a thick "scrapbook" in Tang Yiying's hand, and when he opened it, it was all about his relevant reports! For this signal, Zhang Xueliang naturally understood the deep meaning, and the two began to communicate intimately.
So did Pu Jie know about this? Of course, I know that because Zhang Xueliang or Tang Yiying are not low-key people. Soon word spread about the two of them. So what is Pujie's attitude? Two words: casual.
Later, Zhang Xueliang once confessed to Pu Jie what his relationship with Tang Yiying was, but Pu Jie said lightly: "I don't care, she doesn't look for you, she will also go to find someone else." From this, it can be inferred that when Princess Jin prevented her from marrying Puyi, she should have seen Tang Yiying's restlessness, but she miserably pit Pujie.
The relationship between Tang Yiying and Zhang Xueliang did not last long, ostensibly because Zhang Xueliang had "seen the world" and was surrounded by beautiful women like clouds. The deep-seated reason is that Zhang Xueliang is after all a young marshal, controlling the northeast, no matter how toss, but also to take into account the "face between the nobles", Pu Jie is a person with status, can not be too excessive!
However, Zhang Xueliang's wandering away did not cause any harm to Tang Yiying. Soon, she found another target, although not as good as Zhang Xueliang, but also too bad, this person was Lu Xiaojia, the son of Lu Yongxiang, the overseer of Zhejiang. Tang Yiying seems to have a true feeling for Lu Xiaojia, and in order to meet the expenses of the two, she smuggled Pu Jie's treasure out for money.
So does Pu Jie know these things? This time he didn't know! Because Pu Jie is studying in Japan, he and Tang Yiying have not exchanged information for a long time, and they have long been like strangers. But at this moment, the ghostly thoughts of the Japanese people let Pu Jie get rid of the yin and yang.
Because Puyi had lost his fertility, the Japanese began to fight Pujie's idea, forcing Pujie to marry a Japanese marquis: Saga Gongsheng's granddaughter, Saga Hao, so that Saga Hao could give birth to a mixed Sino-Japanese offspring and inherit the puppet Manchukuo. Pu Jie knew this trick very well, so he used Tang Yiying as a shield and said that he had a wife.
Without saying a word, the Japanese sent JiGang'an to personally go out on horseback, led a large number of gendarmes to find Tang Yiying, forced her to divorce Pujie, and also found a police chief to be a witness, so Pujie divorced Tang Yiying.
Pu Jie was blessed by the misfortune, and after the marriage, Saga Hao did not follow the Japanese people's ideas at all, and turned this conspiracy into an ancient love affair, single-mindedly as Lady Pu Jie, the two stayed together all their lives, white heads to old age, can be described as a complete marriage.
After Tang Yiying left pujie's "royal circle", the exposure rate became smaller and smaller, and eventually became a female painter, who declared in her later years: Men are unreliable! This seems to mean something.
It just so happens that in his later years, Zhang Xueliang also made an evaluation of Tang Yiying: Extremely smart, bastards are thorough! Thinking about Tang Yiying's life, it is really like this. It seems that Zhang Xueliang is the person who understands Tang Yiying most comprehensively, so these eight words should also be regarded as the conclusion of Tang Yiying's coffin.
