It is said that if you don't die, you won't die, Zhenfei died unjustly, and some people say that Cixi killed her to "eliminate harm for the country", so what is the truth?
When you go to Beijing, you can't go to the Forbidden City, and you can't go to the Forbidden City without seeing the Zhenfei Well.
Many people go to the Forbidden City to stop at the Zhenfei Well in the northeast corner and sigh, grit their teeth for Cixi's viciousness, and lament the tragic experience of Zhenfei.
Gengzi Nian Boxer Rebellion, ushered in the intervention of the great powers, interference can be accepted, it is said that to interfere with her to prevent her from continuing to hold power, replaced by Guangxu as the master, Cixi her old man's family how can not jump like thunder, so declared war on the great powers, the Eight-Nation Alliance invaded Beijing, the people of the whole country are worried about the safety of Cixi her old man's home.
In fact, everyone's worries were purely superfluous, at this time Cixi was already on the road to the west hunt, and her old man was planning ahead, running away before the coalition army entered the city.
Before Cixi fled west with Guangxu, he also calmly and calmly did a thing to "eliminate harm for the country", ordering the eunuch Cui Yugui and other eunuchs to throw Zhenfei into this well, and a year later, Zhenfei's body was salvaged.
Speaking of this, many people will raise objections, is Cixi not an "old demon who has brought calamity to the country and the people"? Guangxu was an emperor who pursued progress and was the leader of the Penghu Reform Law, and Cixi's killing of Zhenfei was to break up the loving husband and wife, to take people's lives, and to commit intentional homicide.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > to know if this statement makes sense, you should find out what Zhenfei did in the palace. </h1>
Princess Keshun (1876-1900), also known as Zhenfei (珍妃), of the Tatara clan, was the daughter of Changshu, the former Right Attendant of hubu, a Manchurian red flag bearer, a concubine of the Guangxu Emperor, and the most favored concubine.
As the saying goes, it is better to learn than to marry well, if a woman marries a good husband, she will eat and drink spicy for a lifetime, and enjoy endless wealth and glory.
If a woman marries a local tycoon, she is extremely lucky.
In ancient times, marrying a local tycoon was not an ability, and marrying an emperor was called a skill.
But there are thousands of women, and there is only one emperor, and the chances of marrying the emperor are slim, lower than the probability of winning the lottery ticket.
However, Zhenfei and her sister Concubine Jin won the grand prize at the same time in 1889, and not only were they selected for the palace, but also became concubines.
But when I entered the palace, I learned that the palace is not a place for people to stay, or a place for good people to stay.
Because there is only one emperor, three thousand beautiful women and seventy-two concubines, three palaces and six courtyards guard an animal that is rarer than a giant panda, every day they fight with their hearts, step by step, and those who can survive are those who are cunning and can no longer be cunning, and honest people have long been killed.
Therefore, if you want to survive in the palace, you must be very low-key, but also be able to calculate people, use all kinds of contradictions to protect yourself, and not all five poisons?
But As a concubine, Zhenfei did not know how to protect herself, too simple.
Princess Zhen was not only simple, but also fashionable in her thinking, or her concept was too open, and she turned a blind eye to and dismissed the feudal etiquette and various rules of the court.
When in the palace, Princess Zhen was very curious about Western photography, secretly bought a camera, and taught the palace maid how to take pictures, pose all day, scratch her head and make people take pictures.
This made Cixi, who regarded Western scientific and technological achievements as strange tricks, very unhappy in her heart, and she advised and warned Zhenfei, but Zhenfei pretended that her husband was Guangxu, and she couldn't listen to it at all, and she often confronted her. Let Cixi be greatly enraged, and her heart was full of hatred and gritted her teeth.
Another ulterior reason for Cixi's hatred of Zhenfei was jealousy, and there were three women of the highest status around Guangxu, in addition to Zhenfei's sisters, there was also an Empress Longyu.
This Empress Longyu's identity was not ordinary, she was Cixi's niece, and cixi sent to Guangxu to control him.
But this eldest cousin of Empress Longyu was very ugly, her figure was not bad, and her character was just like that, and Guangxu naturally suspected that she often made Guangxu's small reports, and in Guangxu's mind she was the same as the KGB.
So Guangxu was cold and long-yu, turning her into a living widow, for a woman with a prosperous style, this is worse than killing her, it is intolerable, she has a grudge against the favored Concubine Zhen, and she must have gone to Aunt Cixi to complain about the blackness more than once.
And this ZhenFei did not know how to converge, and also did some stupid things, providing a bullet for Empress Longyu to bring herself down.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > what stupid thing did she do? </h1>
It turned out that Princess Zhen wanted to learn from Cixi, dared to get involved in the politics of the dynasty, and became a female politician.
Zhenfei actively participated in the power struggle, fell into the political whirlpool, and created a momentum for Guangxu to challenge Cixi before the Sino-Japanese War, and to win over officials to support Guangxu.
In order to allow Guangxu to control the government and compete with Cixi, Zhenfei also intervened in the organization of the work, selecting officials with both ability and political integrity for Guangxu.
Later, when Cixi found out, she ordered that Zhenfei's pocket money be reduced, leaving this beauty-loving Zhenfei in a difficult situation, and she could not even afford to buy cosmetics, let alone fashion.
At this time, Princess Zhenfei came up with an idea, that is, to use power for personal gain, to trade power for money, to sell officials and lords, to get some pocket money, and to deal with Cixi's economic blockade.
According to various memoirs in the palace, once a minister wants to become an official, he must honor Zhenfei with some silver, and when Zhenfei gets benefits, he blows the pillow wind in front of Guangxu, and this official will soon be promoted.
Once again, someone bought a fat shortage from Zhenfei to take charge of the salt administration in Sichuan, who knew that the person who bought the official was not only incompetent, but also had water in his brain, and only knew that he was embezzling and accepting bribes on a large scale, and he would not hide it at all. It didn't take long for this person to have an incident in the east window, and the matter of buying an official was also exposed, and Cixi grabbed Zhenfei's pigtails, how could she give up.
So Cixi rushed to Zhenfei's teacher in anger to ask for guilt, but Zhenfei thought that her husband was the emperor, and she confronted her and said, Isn't it taught by your old man that women interfere in politics?
Enraged, Cixi demoted Zhenfei to a nobleman on the spot, and tortured her with a "cloaked staff" (meaning taking off her clothes and torturing her directly to the flesh). Knowing that this punishment could only be used against the chancellor, cixi actually used it against Guangxu's wife, which showed how much Cixi hated Zhenfei.
With these festivals, it is not surprising that Cixi later mutilated Zhenfei.
Of course, Cixi did this to ensure the reputation of Zhenfei, you said that Xi Hunt took her, she was in confinement, why bother to take her away? But if they stayed, in case the soldiers of the great powers insulted the princess of the Qing Empire, it would be a great blow to the reputation of the Qing Empire and the reputation of ZhenFei herself.
As far as Zhenfei her own personality and deeds are concerned, she entered the palace at the age of 13, fell into the well at the age of 24, and was able to spend 11 years in the palace, which is already a miracle on earth.
Some people say that Zhenfei is dead, and the Great Qing dynasty lacks the next low-grade version of the small "Cixi", then Cixi murders Zhenfei, which naturally becomes "eliminating harm for the country".
