Today, Xiaobian will bring you the story of Cixi giving birth to a son, the Qing Emperor abdicated, the people breathed the air of freedom, and the literati were no longer restricted. Therefore, for a while, countless Qing Palace wild history was popular, and various newspapers and periodicals frequently saw "gossip" about the former dynasty, and even some works were collected into volumes.
In fact, this phenomenon is very well understood. As a depressed reader in the feudal dynasty, after the sudden opening of the atmosphere, it is inevitable to obtain a sense of existence through this form of "gossip", so as to satisfy the curiosity of the common people. Among these wild histories that have swept the country, the most eye-catching is those vulgar and obscene histories, among which the obscene histories with cixi themes are the most popular.
Among them, the most exaggerated article, even, said that the old lady was pregnant with Liujia because of her chaotic private life.
According to the "Wild Records of the Qing Dynasty", before the Xianfeng Emperor died, he left a will to Empress Ci'an, saying: If anyone dares to be an emperor, or arrogantly indulges in lawlessness, he will take out this will and kill him quickly. Obviously, the object of this edict was Cixi, whose status was second only to Ci'an at that time. Judging from Cixi's later behavior, the Xianfeng Emperor's move can be called "precautionary" to prevent problems.
One year, Cixi suffered from a bloodslide, the cause of which is unknown. The book says that after Xianfeng's death, Cixi often sent Li Lianying to search for young and handsome young people outside, and summoned these young men to the palace to "Hide Jiao in the Golden House", so that she would become pregnant and bleed. In order to prevent the scandal from being made public, handsome young students who had had a physical relationship with the empress dowager were secretly executed and killed.
It is said that Guangxu was Cixi's illegitimate son, and after birth, he was sent to the palace of Prince Shuo to be raised on his behalf. This also explains why Cixi did not give him an heir before Tongzhi's death. Because, she already had an heir in her heart, that is, her other son Guangxu. The statement that "Guangxu was the illegitimate son of Cixi" not only appeared in the "Wild Records of the Qing Dynasty", but also in many wild histories at that time, this statement was called the mainstream.
For example, in the "Trivia of the Qing Palace", there is a similar bridge section. It is said that Cixi had to eat a bowl of "soup and lying fruit" every day after Xianfeng's death, which was actually a simple side dish of boiled eggs in broth. Every day, the little eunuchs had to spend more than twenty taels of silver to buy it out of the palace, and the young men in the Jinhua Hotel personally sent the dishes into the harem.
We have a general understanding of Cixi's taste, an ordinary boiled egg, it is estimated that it is difficult to enter the eyes of Lafayette. In addition, it is even more outrageous to let people outside the palace send dishes into the palace. Therefore, the poor eunuch went out of the palace every day to buy the same dish, and then let the young man send the dish into the deep palace, which was most likely some kind of disguised behavior.
Of course, such statements are too blunt and explicit, and there are some more obscure secrets, such as "the Yuanmingyuan Hidden Aphrodisiac". "Qixia Pavilion Wild Ride" tells such a story, there is a small official Ding Mou in The Hanlin Courtyard, who was summoned by Lafayette to the Yuanmingyuan one day. Because Ding mou went too early, he was temporarily placed by the eunuch in Cixi's room where he occasionally rested.

Idle, Ding began to look at the whole room, but saw that there were more than a dozen fragrant fruits on the table, and Ding Mou, who was hungry and curious, picked one and put it in his mouth. What he did not expect was that the fruit had not yet reached a few minutes, And Ding felt that his body was abnormal, and his lower abdomen was hot and dry, and somewhere he became unable to hold back. Because it was the height of summer at that time, and Ding was wearing relatively thin clothes, he could not hide the abnormality of his lower body.
At this moment, Ding Mou broke out in a cold sweat. If you meet Lafayette in this state, it is not a decent thing, and even, it will provoke the disaster of killing. In a hurry, Ding Mou thought of a way, he immediately squatted down to cover his stomach, saying that his abdominal pain was unbearable. The eunuchs saw the situation and hurried to find a medicine to cure the emergency and let Ding swallow it. Where did Ding Mou suffer from acute sha? These drugs are naturally useless. He pretended to be in excruciating pain and begged the eunuchs to convey it on his behalf, wanting to go home to see the disease and wait until he was cured before entering the palace to meet Lafayette.
After the eunuchs conveyed Cixi and received approval, they hurriedly dragged Lord Ding out of the palace and asked him to hurry home to see a doctor. Ding Sighed with relief, and finally picked up a life. Legend has it that when Ding mou returned home, the abnormality of the lower body had not disappeared, and he could only bend down and walk slowly, and it took a whole day to return to his original state after arriving home. What is the mystery of those fragrant fruits, seeing Ding's reaction is naturally self-evident. Why did the aphrodisiac appear in the deep palace where Cixi lived? Naturally, Lafayette had a physiological need.
Such a dirty and strange strange news, at that time there were not one thousand but eight hundred. The reason why Cixi became the object of criticism by the people of the time was mostly because this woman directly led to the backwardness of modern China, so she was pushed into the pit by the literati and could not turn over. Today, although we know that the authenticity of these obscene histories is very low, there are also a small number of history enthusiasts who justify their names. It can be said that among the women who are active in history, Cixi's reputation is so bad that no one can stand out from her.
