In fact, at the end of the Qing Dynasty, although from the perspective of our modern people, the early morning at that time was already a dynasty that was rotten to the roots, and sooner or later it would completely die out. But for Emperor Guangxu, our impression is still very good.
As one of the last-day monarchs of the Qing Dynasty, Emperor Guangxu was born in a not very good era, and he did not have any real power at that time. The main power was still in the body of the old Buddha Cixi behind him.
But compared to the previous emperors of the Qing Dynasty, Emperor Guangxu was very eager for the Qing Dynasty in his heart. This generation is ZTE again.
The Qing Dynasty’s vigorous Wuxu Reform, led by Kang Youwei and Tan Sitong, was also a very obvious example of Emperor Guangxu's urgent need to change.
We can intuitively feel Emperor Guangxu’s desire to become self-reliant and strengthen the country. As the king of a country, it is not easy to have such understanding and ideas.
It’s just a pity that the ambitious Emperor Guangxu met the very insidious Empress Dowager Cixi, because in many ways the Emperor Guangxu Empress Dowager Cixi’s thoughts were different, and Empress Dowager Cixi felt that if Emperor Guangxu was left alone, he would very likely go on a road against himself, and in Empress Dowager Cixi’s concept, Emperor Guangxu’s many methods were Harmed the Qing Dynasty.
So for a long time, the relationship between Emperor Guangxu and Empress Dowager Cixi was actually very bad.
so that Emperor Guangxu was simply banned by Empress Dowager Cixi in the isolated island, and he was not allowed to do anything, nor was he allowed to interfere. In terms of Emperor Guangxu’s ambition, he encountered such a situation, How distressed he is in the depths of his heart, we can imagine, it should be a completely suppressed feeling of breathlessness!
I thought that the situation of Emperor Guangxu could be improved after the death of Empress Dowager Cixi, and it may even return to the Qing Dynasty. At the top, become the real helm. But the real situation in history is that Emperor Guangxu died soon after Empress Dowager Cixi passed away. So who exactly killed the young emperor?
It can be said that the Empress Dowager Cixi is the biggest suspect in the current people's opinion. Because she knew that she was very at odds with Emperor Guangxu before she was alive, she was afraid that Guangxu would regain dominance after her death, and might even make herself uneasy after death. In order to completely cut off this trouble, Empress Dowager Cixi also ordered her to die when she was dying. Put Guangxu to death.
It should be said that there is some truth to this statement, but if the death of Guangxu really has nothing to do with Cixi, who else is it related to?
Two people came to mind in the author's mind. The first one was the great eunuch Li Lianying who was next to Empress Empress Cixi. Because he was the celebrity around Cixi back then, Li Lianying was almost arrogant, and in many cases he didn't even put Emperor Guangxu in his eyes. After the death of Cixi, if Emperor Guangxu really regained control, then it should be a very bad thing for Li Lianying, because he was afraid that Emperor Guangxu would find his own account. Under such a background , Li Lianying is very likely and able to harm Emperor Guangxu.
And the other person is Yuan Shikai, although Yuan Shikai at the time was on the surface of the Qing Dynasty.Chang is loyal, but in fact, in my heart, I have already started to have other ideas because of my strength day by day. Because Yuan Shikai knew that after the death of Empress Dowager Cixi, if there is no Emperor Guangxu, then the Qing Dynasty will face a situation where there will be no successors, and this situation is very beneficial to emerging forces like himself, so Yuan Shikai is the same. There is a motive to harm Emperor Guangxu.
However, in historical data, we cannot find out exactly who killed Emperor Guangxu, so in the above content, we just made a relatively objective assumption. I don’t know how people differ on this issue. view?
