The man, called Rasputin, almost overthrew the regime in Tsarist Russia, and its existence can be said to be an eternal nightmare for Russians. To this day, many Russians believe he is alive.
When Rasputin was a scoundrel in the township when he was young, he did not learn any tricks all day, so the villagers called him Rasputin, which means debauchery and lasciviousness in Russian. At the age of 18, sentenced to labor camp for theft and working as a hard worker in a monastery for a year, Rasputin was exposed to religion for the first time, and from then on he became completely fascinated by religion, and he changed from a country boy to an attractive monk.
One day in 1901, Rasputin, who did not know who had been guided, suddenly abandoned his wife and son, changed into a monastic suit, and wandered alone throughout Russia, and for the next five years, there was no news at all, and the human world evaporated. Later, according to his own account, during these five years he had learned an oriental occult technique with the ancient local practitioners in the primeval forests of the Altai Mountains in Siberia, a secretary that would allow him to win the favor of all women.
In 1906, due to the disastrous defeat in Germany in the Russo-Japanese War, there were many workers' movements in St. Petersburg, and uprisings continued throughout Russia. Under the internal and external troubles, the Tsar's home was not at peace, the crown prince was found to have hemophilia, the court doctors were helpless, and the queen washed her face with tears all day long.
At this time, a nobleman told the empress that there was now an ascetic monk in the folk, who could use spells, could pinch and calculate, predict prophets, and was also good at witch doctors, and was quite prestigious in the folk, and had predicted that he would treat the crown prince.
The Empress herself was a devout mystic, and when he said this, she became interested and sent someone to summon Rasputin. So, this demon monk, dressed in a tattered robe, with a large body, a scruffy beard, and a strange smell, entered the Winter Palace and met the Tsar and his wife and the two-year-old crown prince.
Although Rasputin is full of strange smells and untrimmed edges, his eyes are bright and bright, which fascinates everyone. Rasputin went straight to the crown prince and motioned for the tsar and others to recuse himself, and the tsar did.
Then Rasputin touched the crown prince's head, approached his ear without knowing what was said, and then began a long prayer. After the prayer, Rasputin took out a bag of white medicine powder of unknown origin and gave it to the crown prince, and sure enough, the crown prince's symptoms were alleviated.
From then on, the crown prince could no longer be separated from Rasputin, and during this period, Rasputin became the queen's spiritual sustenance with his magic and charm. In order to avoid suspicion, the Tsar gave Rasputin the title of Tsar's lamp bearer, and from then on Rasputin could enter and leave the palace at will. Rasputin, who was trusted by the royal family, rose step by step, and countless noble young women fell for it, and even the Tsarist Empress was his late-night close friend.
By 1914, Rasputin was in power, and that year, when World War I broke out, Tsar Nicholas II decided to march on the throne. The empress was in charge of the government, Rasputin undoubtedly became the regent tsar behind the queen, and the tsar who fought on the front line also relied heavily on Rasputin's prophecy, from the time of dispatch to the strategic deployment, without exception, Rasputin's divination was needed.
By the summer of 1916, when the war was at its most critical juncture, Rasputin sent a prophecy to the Tsar not to fight Germany or lose. But this time the Tsar did not listen to Rasputin and insisted on a decisive battle with Germany. The German Emperor on the other side was not only his own enemy, but also a cousin who was stronger than himself since childhood, and thinking of this, the Tsar ordered a fight, and the Result was a fiasco for the Russian army.
In December of the same year, an envelope was placed on the Tsar's desk, which was Rasputin's last prophecy. The Tsar opened the envelope and it contained two prophecies, the first of which I foresaw that I would not survive this year, and the second of which the Russian Empire would be overthrown within three months of my death.
After reading the prophecy, the Tsar found it ridiculous and thought his empire could not have been so fragile. But the Tsar did not dare to be careless, and sent a secret police to protect Rasputin and strengthen the city security in St. Petersburg to prevent a new revolution from breaking out. Gradually, the Tsar's favor, Rasputin, aroused the resentment of many ministers and nobles, who believed that Russia's fiasco in World War I was due to the chaos of the government and that they planned to get rid of Rasputin.
A feast was then arranged for Rasputin to be invited, and cakes and wine were poisoned, enough cyanide to poison five cows. Rasputin ate eight cakes and drank a glass of red wine, but he only burped and drooled, and the crowd panicked.
Rasputin suddenly spoke, saying that he was not feeling well and wanted to go home to rest, but they knew that it was absolutely impossible for Rasputin to leave here alive today. In a hurry, Prince Yusupov fired a shot at Rasputin, and the bullet passed through Rasputin's lungs, and everyone thought he had lost his breath.
But after a while, Rasputin suddenly woke up, got rid of the oppression of the people, grabbed the prince's neck, and said, Tomorrow I will send someone to hang you, so I fled outside the house myself. The others chased after them and fired three shots, the last of which hit them in the head.
When the crowd dragged him into the house, Rasputin woke up again, and Yusupov slammed his temple with a heavy object, but Rasputin still lost his breath and was just stunned.
Seeing Rasputin's many resurrections, the assassins had collapsed and could not think of any way to subdue the undead monk. At this time, one person reminded Rasputin that he hated bathing because the water would make his mana disappear, so several people threw Rasputin into the frozen Moika River.
The next day, Rasputin's body was found, and forensically determined that he had survived in the water for eight minutes, three times as long as a normal person. Rasputin, who had eaten poison and been shot several times, eventually died of drowning in a medical medical assessment. After Rasputin's death, the Empress was so sad that she ordered a generous burial of Rasputin in the Royal Garden, and planned to build a Rasputin Monastery at the burial site. But due to the strong opposition of religious forces, it was not resolved, and according to russian Orthodox tradition, the drowned cannot be canonized.
On March 8, 1917, the February Revolution took place in Russia, because February in the Russian calendar was the third month of the Gregorian calendar, exactly three months later, the Romanov dynasty collapsed, the era of the Russian Empire ended, and the prophecy came true.
Later, the revolutionary army snatched Rasputin's coffin, which they opened, cut off part of Rasputin's body, and then smashed the ashes. The part where Rasputin was cut off is still preserved in St. Petersburg's Museum of Curiosities as a testimony to the monk's existence — and this part is 28.5 centimeters long.
