In 1962, Chairman Mao invited Pu Yi to dinner. During the dinner, he asked: Are the dishes in the Imperial Dining Room delicious? How Pu Yi answered

There was an emperor in history who had no power after he was born, but he could still live in the Forbidden City. He lived a life of adequate clothing and food every day, eating the food in the imperial dining room, which was envious of everyone. Later, for various reasons, the emperor He also became an ordinary person and no longer lived in the Forbidden City. After the founding of New China, the emperor was able to taste 御食房's rice again at the invitation of the chairman. He was the last emperor Puyi_ span2span.

Puyi's experience

Puyi was the last emperor in the last year of the Qing Dynasty. Puyi was born into a puppet, used by people, and then thrown aside without paying attention after he was used. After the founding of New China, Pu Yi also received new ideological education in the new environment.

After several years of education, he was finally released. After the release, Puyi also reaped his own life. Although people know that Puyi is the "emperor", Puyi only regards himself as an ordinary people, saying After all, that is the old society, now it is the new society, and everyone is the master of the country.

Chairman Mao's banquet

In 1962, the chairman banqueted a lot of celebrities to Zhongnanhai for dinner, but when the people were all seated, the chairman still did not open the banquet, but instead turned to people Selling Guan Zidao, do you know what I'm waiting for? Everyone shook their heads. The chairman said that besides you, there is another very important guest who has not yet arrived. Tell me who will it be?

Everyone began to discuss, but did not think of a suitable candidate. The chairman then reminded everyone that this person turned out to be our immediate superior. Hasn't he thought of it yet? Even so, everyone didn't know who it was, so they had to wait for this person to come and see who it was.

After a while, the sound of walking came out from the corridor,People's eyes became anticipating, and the pace stopped, and people came to the banquet in Zhongnanhai. Only then did people know who it was. It turned out to be the last emperor Pu Yi. After coming in, Pu Yi hugged the chairman and started chatting with everyone. stand up.

After everyone was seated, the chairman also told people why Puyi was banqueted. The main reason was that the chairman read "My First Half of My Life" written by Puyi. The chairman saw in the book that Puyi put a lot of mistakes in Because of his own body, the chairman was afraid that there would be problems with Puyi’s thoughts and decided to open his mind for Puyi. He also said to Puyi not to have too much pressure, and he was very concerned about Puyi’s private life, saying that it was time to find another daughter-in-law. It caused people to burst into laughter, and the atmosphere became relaxed.

As people chatted, the dining table was gradually filled with food from the imperial dining room. After all the dishes were ready, everyone started to eat, and everyone was eating and chatting. The chairman also asked Pu Yi: Is the cooking in the Imperial Dining Room delicious? It's probably not as good as your original taste!

After listening, Pu Yi also replied to the chairman: The meal in the imperial dining room cannot be said to be delicious, it can only be said that it is relatively wasteful. In general, the meal at home is more delicious. So what did Puyi eat?

Yushanfang’s dishes

When Puyi was the emperor, every time he ate, there were several tables with many well-known dishes. People might not know the value of these dishes. But if it is converted into a family of ordinary people, Puyi's meal can be enough for the family to eat one year's food, which shows how wasteful Puyi's meal was at that time.

Even though the value of the food is very high, but the food is not delicious, it is just for viewing, so we can understand why Puyi would say that the food in the Yushan Fang does not have the food at home.

The best meal

Chairman Pu Yi’s meal is also the best meal Pu Yi has ever eaten.Because the chairman has a lot of things, it is very precious to be able to invite Puyi to eat in person, and the chairman is very concerned about his own life, so this kind of dinner also makes Pu Yi feel the taste of home food.

Not to mention that the society at that time was in the age of famine. The banquets were all ordinary home-cooked dishes, and there were old acquaintances at the banquets, so what really makes Puyi feel that the delicious food comes from people’s treatment of themselves Relationship, recognition of oneself!

Concluding remarks

Puyi's life is tragic, despite having superior family conditions, but never really lived for himself, but Chairman Mao's meal made Puyi feel very warm.

The chairman treated Puyi kindly with the mind of a leader, and also gave Puyi the corresponding relationship, so this meal is not only an ordinary meal, but more to fill Puyi's heart, so that Puyi can relax Free life, so this is the most delicious meal.
