Puyi, the last emperor of the Qing Dynasty, is recorded to have 7 sisters, so after the complete collapse of the Manchu Qing, where did these once prominent Gege go? What kind of life and ending did you end up experiencing?
In the Qing Dynasty, all women born of the royal family were called "Gege", because of the difference in class status, the daughter of the prince was called "Heshuo Gege", the daughter of the king of the county was called "Dorogge", and so on, it can be said that no matter in which era of the Qing Dynasty, there were many Gege in the royal family, and their life trajectory was almost the same, bound by political marriage according to the orders of their parents, living a relatively restrictive but carefree life.
However, in the end, it is the era that creates a person, even if the pampered Gege, when they encounter a special era, they may also create a completely different life, just like Puyi's 7 sisters, then these last generation Gege who were active at the time of the demise of the Qing Dynasty, after the qing Dynasty completely went to the demise, what kind of different life trajectories will they experience?
As we all know, even after the fall of the Qing Dynasty, the last emperor Puyi still dreamed of restoring the country, and even attached himself to the Japanese, fleeing to Tianjin and the northeast successively, establishing the so-called "pseudo-Manchurian regime", once again becoming a sad puppet and victim under the ambitions of others, and how many of his sisters really followed him? How many happy endings have been achieved?
Born in the thirty-fourth year of Guangxu, only 2 years younger than Puyi, Da Ge Ge Yun was married to Guo Buluo Runliang, the brother of the last empress Wanrong, before the qing dynasty was completely destroyed. As a wife, she was gentle and skillful, knowledgeable and knowledgeable, but unfortunately, shortly after marriage, Yun Mi suddenly had acute appendicitis, and when her condition was critical, the overly conservative Runliang did not believe in the first aid and surgical theories of Western medicine, insisted on conservative treatment using traditional Chinese medicine, and finally delayed Yun's condition, resulting in her untimely death at the age of 17.
After the fall of the Manchu Qing, where did the Gege go? Except for the unfortunate early death of The Great Grid, what are the ways out for the rest of the Grid?
Erge Geyun was born in 1911, 5 years younger than Puyi, has always been among so many sisters, and Puyi is the most intimate and close relationship, she was born in the royal palace, from childhood was allowed to enter and exit the Forbidden City at any time, grew up with her brother, the same in and out, the relationship is naturally the best, and after Puyi's escape, Yun Gong also followed all the way around, lived in Tianjin, went to Changchun, Jilin Province, married Puyi's confidant Zheng Guangyuan, and even witnessed the entire absurd "pseudo-Manchurian" history.
In 1945, Japan announced its unconditional surrender, the puppet state of Manchukuo completely collapsed, Puyi was escorted to the Soviet Union, and the undependent Yun Gong could only sleep with her husband in the folk style, displaced, and even rely on begging for a living in the most difficult time, so the couple supported all the way back to Beijing. Later, with the help of his relatives, Yun Gong went to England with her husband to study, and temporarily lived in the home of Puyi's former English teacher Johnston.
Many years later, the couple returned to China as a classmate, Zheng Guangyuan was hired as an engineer in the Infrastructure Construction Department of the Beijing Municipal Post Office, and then worked in the Literature and History Materials Committee of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, as his wife Yun Gong has always accompanied him, the young couple's later life is still lucky and rich, in the end, Zheng Guangyuan died of illness in 1995, seven years later, in 2002, Yun Gong died with it, and their daughter "Zheng Shuang" has become an outstanding female painter in contemporary China at this time, and as a member of the National Artists Association, he was admired by insiders. Continue to create her own glory in history!
Like Ergege, Sange Yunying also had a close relationship with Puyi from an early age, and followed Puyi all the way to Changchun to establish a puppet Manchurian regime. In Changchun, she was accused by Puyi of marrying Wanrong's younger brother Runqi, and soon after the marriage, Runqi was sent by Puyi to study at the Japanese Military Academy, and Yun Ying followed. For political reasons, the couple was treated by the Japanese imperial family in Japan and was always active in Vanity Fair, but in the long run, the Japanese false mask and various political coercions made Yun Ying feel bound and powerless, in 1933, she followed her husband back to China briefly, but never wanted to step into Japan's country again.
The couple then continued to serve the puppet state of Manchukuo until the Red Army took over the northeast, Yun Ying fled with the royal family, and her husband Runqi disappeared in the chaos. In 1949, the founding of New China, Yun Ying left a little inheritance by relying on the royal family, dragging three children to survive hard, and then, because she began to take the initiative to emancipate her mind, actively participate in community street work, won the recognition of the masses and the new Chinese government, was hired as a CPPCC member in Dongcheng District, Beijing, life was greatly improved, and finally spent her old age, died in 1992, at the age of 79.
After the fall of the Manchu Qing, the second and third gege, after following Puyi to escape and experience a tragic fate, finally came to an end, so what about the fate of the remaining four sisters?
There are very few early records of si ge yun xian in the annals of history, only that she married Puyi's classmate in her youth, zhao Qipan, who was also born in the Manchu qing nobility, but in the Republic of China period, Zhao Qipan joined the Kuomintang, and in 1948, she was defeated by the Nationalist army in Taiwan, but left her wife Yun Xian and two children alone on the mainland, so the couple separated the two sides of the strait for a full 34 years.
After that, YunXian's life was very difficult, and she could only rely on odd jobs to barely maintain her and her children's basic life, but in the end, the new Chinese government considered her difficulties and arranged for her to return to the Forbidden City to take up her post again, as a file sorter at the Palace Museum, Yun Xian no longer ran around for survival and food and clothing, and her husband finally returned to the mainland in 1982, but when the couple met, they were already white.
Compared with the four grids, the five grids born in 1917 are much luckier, she married Wan Jiaxi, the son of the Qing Dynasty widowed elderly when she was young, the couple did not suffer much persecution from the old society, after the founding of New China, Yun Xin worked as a tailor at home for a living, and also learned simple accounting skills, completely integrated into the lives of ordinary people in the new era, in 1956, she and her husband even went to the Fushun War Criminals Management Center to visit Puyi who was imprisoned here.
In the following years, Yun Xin and his wife lived an ordinary and happy life, they raised a total of 4 children, all of them became famous, admitted to college, became the pillar of the country, and can be regarded as the happiest of all the last generations!
The fate of Liu Ge Ge Yun Yu is different from other sisters, she did not like court life and political struggles since she was a child, so she did not have a close relationship with Puyi, according to the orders of her parents, Yun Yu and Wang Ailan, who was a secretary at the Japanese Embassy, got married, and the two had common hobbies, art and painting. After liberation, the couple still attached themselves to calligraphy and painting, and achieved very high achievements in the field of painting and art, and joined the Chinese Artists Association, and finally Yun Yu died in 1982, ending her idyllic and literary life.
If the first six sisters are either following the fate or following the ups and downs of their husbands in the chaotic world, then the choice of the seven grids of Ge Yun Huan is completely different! Like Yun Yu, Yun Huan also dislikes politics and Vanity Fair, after becoming an adult, she became a teacher according to her own ideals, and followed her own vision, and the director of the school was free to fall in love, her uninhibited personality and choice made her father Zaifeng extremely dissatisfied, but at that time, the Qing Dynasty was dead, even if she did not agree, there was no choice, and Yun Huan, who pursued freedom, got rid of the rigid royal family and followed love!
Seven personalities, seven different destinies, seven different lives, clearly recounted in the chaotic world, belongs to the last lament and despair of the Qing royal family, in today's society, many stars in the entertainment circle have also been descendants of the Manchu Qing royal family, such as wu Jing, who claimed in the interview that his ancestors were the Uranara clan, and the famous pianist Lang Lang of the mainland, was indeed born in the Niuhulu clan, and there is no doubt that the descendants of the Yehenara clan, Na Ying, the descendant of the Tong Jia clan, and so on, although the Qing Dynasty has died early, but the bloodline still continues to this day!
