Lunar New Year on February 5, 1962, if according to the habits of previous years, Chairman Mao would have a New Year’s Eve dinner with his family on this day, and reunite well, but this year’s Spring Festival, his elderly family will also arrange a New Year’s Eve dinner in addition to the normal New Year’s Eve dinner. At nine o'clock in the morning, personally invited the former Qing Xuantong Emperor Aixinjue and Luo Puyi to have a New Year dinner. The banquet was set up in Zhongnanhai Yi Niantang. At the same time, in order to take care of Puyi's mood, Chairman Mao also specially invited Zhang Shizhao and Qiu Four close friends, Ao, Cheng Qian and Wang Xiaofan, came to accompany them.
Chairman Mao and the four accompany all arrived ahead of time. After they greeted each other, they started chatting. Among them, Zhang Shizhao, who has the best relationship with Chairman Mao, was very curious about which VIP the chairman had dinner today. , So he stepped forward and inquired: "Chairman, who is the guest today? It will not be our four regular guests?"
Chairman Mao smiled and said: "Today, today the four of you are here to help and accompany the guests. Yes, as for who the guest is, let’s keep it secret.”
When everyone heard Chairman Mao say this, they were all aroused by curiosity. At this time, Chairman Mao added: “Today’s guests were our heads before. What about the boss, can you guess which one it is?"
Good guys, it’s okay for the four friends not to listen. It’s even more curious to hear Chairman Mao’s last words. They thought, which one would it be? In particular, he was once our immediate boss, and several people were guessing the candidate in their hearts.
At this time, a man who was wearing a navy blue tunic suit and glasses with the bottom of a beer bottle, as thin and tall as a stick, walked in.
Chairman Mao greeted the incoming person and shook hands with him. The four immediately stood up and faced the mysterious visitor in a welcoming posture.
Chairman Mao took Pu Yi's hand and said, "You don't know him, he is Emperor Xuantong, who used to be not only your immediate boss, but also mine." He laughed.
At this time, the four of them suddenly realized that Chairman Mao took Pu Yi and sat down beside him while introducing them.
Xuantong Emperor Aixinjue Luo Puyi
Puyi was very nervous at this time, especially when the chairman said he was their immediate superior, he was a little more frightened, and Chairman Mao saw that Puyi was in his heart. Feeling unwell, he pulled him to sit next to him. said easily: "Aren't some of us counted as your people back then? There is nothing to avoid, so you must sit in the seat today."
Chairman Mao made some jokes, and coupled with the round field of the four friends next to him, Pu Yi relaxed his tight body and sat down with peace of mind. It can be seen that Pu Yi was in a state of high mental tension from entering the meeting room.
So the question is here, why is Pu Yi so nervous?
Why did a few jokes of Chairman Mao make Pu Yi terrified?
Hello everyone, Chairman Mao invited Pu Yi in his own name. Let’s talk about this today.
Aixinjue Luo Puyi is a very special person. He is the last emperor in Chinese history since Qin Shihuang became emperor. In his short 61 years of life, the first half of his life experienced feudal monarchy. After experiencing the semi-feudal big bourgeoisie and comprador-dominated Republic of China, in the second half of the new China, I have experienced the prosperity of the country under the socialist system. Isn't it legendary enough?
And Chairman Mao, as one of the founders of New China, and also the leader and head of state, had nothing to do with Puyi, but history is so magical. He just let them know and have an intersection. The intersection of Chairman Mao and Pu Yi, who are broad-minded and far-sighted, happened on the issue of how to deal with the former Qing elders and the Kuomintang war criminals. So what did Chairman Mao do?
Let’s first understand Xia Puyi,How did he become an ordinary citizen of the People’s Republic of China from the emperor
On the fourteenth day of the first month of 1906, Pu Yi was born in Prince Jin’s Mansion, two years later on November 14, 1908 and November 15, 1908. In two days, Emperor Guangxu and Empress Dowager Cixi passed away. Following the order of Cixi, Puyi, who was less than three years old, was taken into the palace to inherit the throne.
Pu Yi, who is a young imperial man and wears the smallest version of his dragon robe, knows nothing at this time. He only sees a group of people kneeling and kowtow to him. The dying empire is in sharp contrast with the ignorant and ignorant Pu Yi. At this time, Pu Yi is absolutely innocent, because he is only a three-year-old child, a tool for the widows and children to fight for power.
Three years later, Pu Yi was six years old, and the Revolution of 1911 broke out. Mr. Sun Yat-sen reached an agreement with Yuan Shikai. As long as Yuan Shikai can make Pu Yi abdicate, the post of President will be handed over to Yuan Shikai. In the three-year emperor's dream, from the beginning of ignorance and ignorance, to when he just figured out what the emperor was, he woke up, and the young Puyi was full of unwillingness.
Next is the life of entering the palace for nearly twelve years. Since 1912, Puyi has been regarded as Emperor Xun. Although between 1912 and 1924, he was restored by Zhang Xun and Kang Youwei several times, but almost nothing Tian failed and abdicated again. In the past twelve years, Pu Yi's mind gradually matured, and was gradually transformed by feudal thoughts and ethics. The further he went, the deeper he fell.
In the past twelve years, Pu Yi has studied with a famous bachelor in the big prison cell of the Forbidden City from childhood to adulthood. He rode a bicycle here and chose his concubine to get married.
However, in the face of more and more changes outside the palace, Pu Yi, who was transformed by feudal ideology, did not choose to progress and choose to learn new knowledge. He wanted to escape and always wanted to leave the Forbidden City, because after entering the Republic of China, with The thinking of the Chinese people is getting better and better. He feels that the Forbidden City is more and more like a prison cell, and he who lives in the Forbidden City is like a monkey in a zoo. What he wants is that people treat him like an emperor, instead of raising him like a monkey. Feed him.
Soon Puyi's opportunity to escape the Forbidden City came. What the warlord Feng Yuxiang most uncomfortable with is that the Qing government, which has been perished for so many years, still has people who give these elders and children huge subsidies every year and let them live in the imperial palace, so in 1924 he A coup d'etat was launched, and he drove all the elders and children out of the Forbidden City, and the Qing Dynasty was only truly dead from this year.
Feng Yuxiang
After leaving the palace, Pu Yi took his family and two wives to Tianjin, where he seemed to enjoy the emperor's life again, because the Japanese felt that Pu Yi was useful for them to occupy the Puppet Manchuria. So they treated Puyi's family in Tianjin to give enough face, and all the etiquette of the emperor's etiquette were all re-used on Puyi, making him want to stop.
In 1931, Puyi, who had served the Japanese for several years, was finally driven willingly by the Japanese because the Japanese government promised to let him go to the Puppet Manchuria to ascend to the throne and re-enter the big treasure
Realized, the Japanese gave him the honorary title of "Kant Emperor", and the Japanese also met their interests, that is, the "legal" annexation of the three provinces in Northeast China. Both of them have a "bright future", but suffering. In that piece of land, tens of millions of compatriots who have been enslaved for fourteen years.
Puyi and the Japanese high-ranking officials
Puyi's dream of emperor here did not end until the defeat of Japan in 1945, and Puyi was also arrested by the Soviet Red Army and sent to the Soviet Union to go to prison for reform, but the Soviet Union did not ask because of his identity It's hard for him. He doesn't have to work or worry about life in prison. Just like recuperating, he can even dine alone, and the harm is pretty good. This situation hasn't changed even after two prisons.
As the Civil Liberation War progressed faster and faster, Pu Yi was afraid that he would be sent back to settle the general ledger. In order to avoid liquidation, he also bribed Soviet staff with heavy money, but these became futile. In 1950, Pu Yi and his father-in-law Salamanders, younger brother Pu Jie and other Qing elders were all sent back to China. At the same time, there were two large boxes of treasures that Pu Yi took when he escaped five years ago. The value of these things was assessed by the Soviet government at 500,000 rubles.
On August 1, 1950, Puyi was transferred to the Fushun War Prisoners Reformation Center, and he was about to undergo a ten-year transformation. Fushun gave him a prison uniform number 981.

When he first arrived at Fushun war criminals to reform the base, Puyi was deprived of the right to follow his followers. No matter how hard he pleaded, the staff of the base still did not agree and took his The follower arranges to serve him in the past, and has never lived alone Pu Yi, even tying shoelaces to wash clothes and socks, a person in his forties is like a waste person, the key is that he still takes these for granted.
In the first two years of Fushun's transformation, Puyi even felt that these transformations were insulting to him. He almost committed suicide several times. In addition to fear and fear, his mentality in the past two years was more of inferiority. Because the staff spent nearly half a month in order to teach him about food crops and tying shoelaces. In the strange eyes of many Kuomintang war criminals, even though Puyi realized that there might be a problem, he did not change the hardest thing. .
This person is always like this, and will never escape the point of saving others by oneself, and Puyi is no exception.
Only with the deepening of the reform, a few years later Pu Yi began to realize that our party and the government really wanted to reform him, because after slowly learning to take care of himself and studying in depth, he realized that he was wrong and began to realize that he was making a mistake. The crime was committed, so he began to write a confession.
Puyi's book "My First Half of Life"
"My First Half of Life" was actually Puyi's confession at the beginning. In the first draft, he put all the guilt on himself, this first draft Chairman Mao has read it, but just read a few pages and then put it down. His old man only saw Puyi admitting his mistakes and repenting in his books, but did not see Puyi's new life born from the cocoon. This is not what the chairman wants to see, Puyi needs help. And further transformation.
At the end of 1955, Premier Zhou brought Pu Yi’s seventh uncle Zai Tao to meet Chairman Mao. The chairman asked Zai Tao if he had contacted Pu Yi again in these years. Zai Tao was very nervous and quickly replied that he was a war criminal. How could I possibly be? Contact him.
Chairman Mao smiled and said: "You are his relatives,As a family member, you should contact him to help him. Don’t be so nervous if you are a legitimate person. Also, what we are destroying is the entire exploiting class, not a specific individual. Now I will give you a task to let Would you like to visit Puyi?
In the spring of 1956, a special visitor came from the Fushun War Criminals Management Office. He was Zai Tao.
"No. 981 Aixinjue Luo Puyi, someone visited! The manager shouted.
When Pu Yi sat at the window and saw Zai Tao, he was surprised and then cried. He cried out with a cry of Uncle Qi.
Pu Yi and Zai Tao
Zai Tao Looking at Puyi’s mental outlook, to be honest, I’m still very satisfied, so I told Puyi that you have to make a good reform. Now the government takes care of us widows and children. Many people outside have arranged jobs and have a good life. You should feel fortunate that Zai Tao then brought Chairman Mao's words to Pu Yi.
Pu Yi was very excited after listening to it. He was very grateful to the Communist Party and Chairman Mao, and in the days that followed, he was completely replaced. Like people, actively participate in activities and actively participate in learning. The content of "My First Half of Life" has also turned from gloomy to cloudy, and even occasionally a self-deprecating witticism.
December 4, 1959, The auditorium of the Fushun War Criminals Management Office is full of people. Today is the first amnesty since the founding of the People’s Republic of China. Many war criminals discussed with each other in a low voice with expectation. They thought that this time the government would only release those who made minor mistakes. Even Pu Yi thinks this way. He doesn't think he has himself this time. In his own words, he said: "I know that I am extremely sinful, and I can't have mine.
"Aisinjue Luo Puyi!" "The staff on the stage read this but did not see the response from the people sitting down, they were a little confused.
"Brother, with your name, you are amnesty!" "Pu Jie, who was sitting behind Pu Yi, pushed Pu Yi in a daze.
Pu Yi was awakened. He was very excited and trembling. After receiving the amnesty letter in front of the stage, he took a deep bow towards the podium and the portrait of Chairman Mao. He bowed, and he was full of tears when he looked up.
Puyi
"In accordance with the pardon of the President of the People's Republic of China of September 17, 1959,This court examined the imprisoned Manchukuo war criminal Aixinjueluo Puyi, the criminal Aixinjueluo Puyi, male, fifty-four years old, Manchu, from Beijing. The prisoner has been in custody for ten years. During the period of custody, through labor reform and ideological education, he has indeed changed the evil to the good, and is in compliance with the provisions of Article 1 of the amnesty. He was released. The Supreme People’s Court of the People’s Republic of China, 1995 December 4th, ninth year.
After reading the amnesty letter several times carefully, Pu Yi sat down in relief. He began to look forward to the life after he went out, and at the same time wrote himself a letter of guarantee in his heart.
Now, we return to the beginning. , Chairman Mao invited Pu Yi at the dinner, Chairman Mao actually asked Pu Yi a question, that is, where did the Qing Dynasty Jade Seal go? This question was taken aback by Pu Yi, he replied that Yu Xi was indeed in his hands before.
After Puyi came out, he worked for the Institute of Botany of the Chinese Academy of Sciences for a period of time. During the period, he was married under the care of Chairman Mao. From 1963 to 1965, Puyi She has been working in the CPPCC. At the end of 1966, Puyi, who was unwell, was diagnosed with uremia. Premier Zhou Enlai specially invited the national player Pu Fuzhou to see him, but the medical conditions at that time were weak.
