Pu Yi was puzzled, the ancestral tablet couldn't be taken back, why?
In the dust of history, Pu Yi, the last emperor of the Qing Dynasty, a former emperor, has now become a witness to history. His life has undergone a great transformation from dignity to despair, from glory to shame. When he tried to retrieve the ancestral tablets that symbolized imperial power and family glory, he encountered an unprecedented dilemma. This left him in deep confusion and incomprehension.
In the last years of the Qing Dynasty, the wave of the Xinhai Revolution swept across the country, and Pu Yi was forced to abdicate, becoming the first and last emperor to be deposed in Chinese history. Although he still lives in the Forbidden City and enjoys the preferential treatment of the Republic of China government, the former dignity and glory are gone. With the invasion of the Japanese invaders, Pu Yi was forced to become the puppet emperor of the puppet state of Manchukuo, losing his former dignity and power.
Under the control of Japan, Pu Yi lived a dark life. He longed for freedom, for the glory that belonged to him again. However, when he finally ushered in the liberation of the Soviet Red Army and was handed over to the newly formed government of the People's Republic of China, he realized that the real challenge had just begun.
When he tried to retrieve the ancestral tablets, he was told that they had become public property of the state and were no longer his personal property. This news was undoubtedly a bolt from the blue for Pu Yi. He could not accept this fact because he considered the tablets to be a symbol of family and royalty, a testimony of his identity and glory.
In order to get these tablets back, Pu Yi began to run around, asking for all kinds of help. He sought out his former ministers and subordinates who had been loyal to him, hoping to use their power to fulfill his wishes. However, these people have either lost their former power and status and are unable to help him; Or they are afraid of getting involved in political battles and choose to sit on the sidelines.
Pu Yi did not give up because of this. He began to try to solve the problem through legal means. He hired lawyers and jurists in the hope of retrieving the tablets through legal means. However, these professionals told him that according to Chinese law, the Forbidden City and all the cultural relics inside it belong to the state, and no one can occupy or transfer it without permission.
In the process, Pu Yi began to reflect deeply. He realized that he was no longer the supreme emperor, but an ordinary Chinese citizen. He can no longer act as royalty as he did in the past, but should respect the laws and institutions of the country. At the same time, he also began to understand that although these ancestral tablets have a special meaning for him, they are the historical and cultural heritage of the Chinese nation and should be better protected and managed.
However, despite Pu Yi's thinking and understanding, he still can't let go. He always felt that these ancestral tablets should belong to his family and the royal family. He began to fall into deep confusion and puzzlement: why couldn't he get the tablets back? Is it because his identity has changed? Or is it because these tablets have become public property of the state?
In this process, Pu Yi's story has attracted wide attention and discussion from all walks of life. People are beginning to think about how to better protect and manage these cultural heritages, so that they can be better passed on and developed. At the same time, people have also begun to reflect on the impact of historical changes and social progress on individuals and families.
For Pu Yi, the question he couldn't figure out was not only a question of personal gains and losses, but also a question of history, culture, and the country. He realized that these ancestral tablets were not only a symbol of his personal wealth and glory, but also a treasure of the history and culture of the Chinese nation. They should be better protected and managed, rather than being monopolized by individuals.
In the end, Pu Yi gave up the idea of getting back the ancestral tablet. He chose to accept this fact and use his own practical actions to inherit and carry forward the excellent traditional culture of the Chinese nation. He actively participates in the construction of social welfare undertakings and cultural undertakings, and contributes to the prosperity and development of the country.
However, Pu Yi's story doesn't end there. His life was full of endless doubts and endless sorrows, but he used his own experience to bring us profound revelations and warnings. He made us understand that the changes of history and the progress of society are irreversible, and that we should respect history, culture, and the laws and systems of the country. At the same time, we should also cherish and protect those historical and cultural heritages that belong to us, so that they can be better inherited and developed.
So, when we think again, "Puyi is puzzled, and the ancestral tablet can't be taken back, why in the end?" We may be able to draw the following takeaways from this question:
Respect for history: History is the memory of the country and the nation, and we should respect history and cherish those historical and cultural heritages that belong to us.
Adapt to the times: The changes of the times are irreversible, and we should adapt to the changes of the times and accept new ideas and systems.
Protecting culture: Culture is the soul of a country and a nation, and we should protect and inherit those excellent traditional cultures that belong to us.
Obey the law: The law is an important tool for maintaining social order and justice, and we should abide by the law and respect the laws and systems of the country.
Let's learn from Puyi's story and make our own contribution to the preservation and inheritance of our history and culture.
