In the 1990s, a strange scene appeared in front of The Palace Museum in Beijing.
An old lady was standing among the crowd holding a sign in her hand. The words written on the
brand only reveal one information from beginning to end: the old lady is the only daughter of China's "last queen" Wanrong !
Hearing this, the experts at Palace Museum suddenly felt extraordinary.
If you can really find the daughter of Wanrong, the "last queen" is a "breakthrough progress" for the study of modern history in my country.
However, because there were too many people pretending to be royal relatives at that time, the experts still showed the caution of a scholar.
They repeatedly asked the old lady: "Auntie, is there anything in your family that can prove your identity?"
When the old lady heard this, she felt energetic in an instant. She answered very simply that of course there was! Her family has a jade seal of the queen! That was left by his mother Wanrong!
When the experts heard that there were "cultural relics", they became even more excited and said they would go home with the old lady to see what was going on.
The old lady had no intention of rejection. She walked and told all the experts about her "childhood experience".
It’s really true to listen to the old lady’s words, which is a big surprise!
Because according to official historical records, the last emperor Puyi had no children at all.
Moreover, Puyi lost his fertility as early as his teenage years old.
If these official records are true, where did Wanrong's daughter come from? And is the mysterious "Queen Jade Seal" mentioned by the old lady true or false?

In fact, experts' speculation on this matter is based on the basis of this, and this starts with the affair between Wanrong and Puyi's guards .
1 Wanrong's "new love"
925, General Feng Yuxiang led his army into Forbidden City , and drove Puyi and others away without saying a word.
Although Puyi and Wanrong had a lot of resentment, they didn't dare to say anything. Who made them the emperor and queen of the previous dynasty? After being driven out of the Forbidden City, he walked out of the Forbidden City and sent Puyi to the " Zhangyuan " in Tianjin to live. Wenxiu and Wanrong came into contact with the world of rapid change outside, and gradually came up with more ideas.
, and Puyi was addicted to thinking about "how to restore the ancestral property of the Qing Dynasty" every day, but he knew nothing about the inner changes of the two women around him.
Not long after, Wenxiu publicly divorced Puyi in Tianjin. This incident caused a lot of controversy at the time and became a topic of conversation for people after dinner.
, and Wanrong was also in depression because she was neglected by Puyi for many years.
Once, Wanrong couldn't bear the trouble of dysmenorrhea and asked her guard to help her get some pain-relieving medicine.
As a result, the guard got Wanrong a box of "big cigarettes".
(People who smoked opium in the old society)
Wanrong certainly knows the disadvantages of smoking big smoke, but when she thinks that she is neglected by her husband every day and lives a life worse than death, she still stretches her hand to the big smoke.
Wanrong became addicted to smoking, her physical condition deteriorated sharply.
Although Puyi tried every means to find a doctor for her to treat her, every doctor was helpless about Wanrong's condition.
Looking at Wanrong who had been tortured to death by drug addiction, Puyi felt even more disgusted with her.
From then on, Puyi ignored the time for breakfast with Wanrong every day.
Just when everything seemed hopeless, several Japanese came to Zhangyuan in Tianjin and invited Puyi to go to the "Manchuria" under their control to be the emperor.
Puyi's heart suddenly rose as he listened to the Japanese's description to him.
For him, the time to restore the Qing Dynasty’s ancestral property has finally come to a ripe place!
Just like that, Puyi impatiently followed the Japanese on his journey to "Manchukuo".
Puyi’s pseudo-Manchukuo ascended the throne
But what Puyi didn’t know was that the “Manchukuo” in the Japanese population was not the “Qing Dynasty” he imagined.
, this small "Manchukuo Kingdom", will even bring an extremely serious disaster to Puyi and Wanrong.
After arriving at the "pseudo Manchukuo" under the control of the Japanese, Puyi and Wanrong felt uncomfortable all over.
Because the Japanese repeatedly assure them that they are the rulers of this country.
But in fact, Puyi didn't even have an army that belonged directly to his own.
Wanrong’s daily food, clothing and consumption must even report to in advance to the Japanese Kanto Army Command.
How could this be the emperor? It was clearly a puppet for the Japanese, but at this time, Puyi wanted to regret it even more.
They are already under the layers of surveillance of the Japanese, and it is impossible to go on a long trip.
At this time, the bored Puyi began to play with "emperor's temper" in the small pseudo-Manchukuo Palace.
(Puyi during his stay in Tianjin)
He first ordered Wanrong to be sent to the cold palace, and then held a grand ceremony for selecting concubines.
Finally, Puyi selected a Manchurian girl named Tan Yuling to become her new concubine.
After Tan Yuling entered the palace, Puyi stayed with her almost every day.
This made Wanrong, who was in the cold palace, angry and hated. As a woman, she wanted to be a mother and hated Puyi, an irresponsible and cold-blooded husband.
If it weren't for his ruthlessness, maybe he would have lived a happy life like an ordinary woman.
In the cold palace, Wanrong was not only ridiculed by the cold eyes of the palace people every day, but also tortured to death by the sudden drug addiction.
At this time, he developed feelings for one of Puyi's personal bodyguards.
This guard is not only responsible for Puyi's safety, but also serves as a driver for Puyi when he travels, and is deeply trusted by Puyi.
Sometimes, Puyi would ask this guard to visit Wanrong on his behalf.
(Puyi and Japanese officials were at the "Pushman Manchukuo Founding Ceremony")
Originally, Puyi did this just a "routine business". After all, he and Wanrong and his wife had a fight. If Wanrong really died, it would be embarrassing to him.
But this guard took care of Wanrong in every way, which suddenly made Wanrong feel a long-lost warmth in her heart.
Gradually, Wanrong began to stay with the guard, and her condition gradually improved, and even her drug addiction was reduced.
A few months later, Wanrong found out that she was pregnant with the guard's child. This inspiring news
rekindled Wanrong's hope for life.
Wanrong looked at her belly that was getting bigger day by day, and her heart was filled with joy. Her desire to be a mother could finally come true.
But just as the child was about to be born in full term, the secret between Wanrong and the guards was suddenly discovered by Puyi.
Facing his wife's betrayal, he was already jealous and distorted in his heart. What kind of reaction would Puyi make?
If this child is born, what will Puyi treat it?
(Wanrong wearing new clothes)
2 The whereabouts of Wanrong's daughter,
For Puyi, Wanrong cheated and became pregnant, which can be said to be a great humiliation.
Therefore, he would not tolerate such a child growing up under his nose in any case.
There are three main sayings about Wanrong's child now:
- Wanrong's child was forced to have "miscarriage" by Puyi before he was born.
Therefore, Wanrong did not have this child at all. People who hold this view believe that Puyi, as an emperor, could not tolerate his wife's cheating, and even more so that Wanrong could not tolerate the child being born.
Therefore, before the child was born, he asked Wanrong to abort the child.
Otherwise, this will cause irreparable damage to the face of Aisin Gioro family .
Second, Wanrong gave birth to a daughter, but was thrown into the stove beside her in anger and burned to death.
People who hold this view believe that Puyi's psychology has become very perverted due to his long-term repressed state, and it is entirely possible that he will do many things that ordinary people cannot imagine.
(Wanrong wearing a "phoenix robe")
Moreover, when Wanrong was found pregnant, the fetus had already taken shape.
According to the medical technology and hygiene conditions at the time, if Wanrong is forced to undergo an abortion surgery, it is likely to endanger her life.
Moreover, even so, the probability of successful fetal miscarriage is very small.
So, Wanrong is likely to give birth to this child, and in the end, Puyi chose to kill this child for his dignity.
Third, Wanrong gave birth to a daughter, but was sent by Puyi to a civilian family near Xinjing (Changchun).
People who hold this statement believe that Puyi is suspicious by nature, but his personality is very weak, and he is unlikely to do something like "kill a baby".
Moreover, if he kills a baby in the palace, it will definitely alarm the Japanese, and the Japanese will send someone to investigate the matter.
No matter what the Japanese found out in the end, the fact that Wanrong had a private date with the guard and successfully got pregnant will be known by the Japanese, and then such a scandal became another handle for Puyi in his possession, which is what Puyi is most intolerable.
Puyi
Therefore, after a long psychological struggle, Puyi chose to send this freshly born child to the countryside.
keeps her away from the whirlpool of "political struggle", and can also protect the face and dignity of royal members in this way.
According to what the old lady at the beginning told the experts, she was the little girl who was taken away by the palace guards.
Moreover, the old lady told her birth date and home address.
Even the name of the guard who carried herself out of the palace was clearly stated. Such detailed situations as
are placed in front of cultural relics experts and historians, and they cannot believe it.
, however, someone immediately raised a question: because the news of impersonating "royal relatives" back then was uncommon across the country, would this old lady also pretend to be an impersonator?
In fact, it is completely normal for everyone to have such an idea.
Because, just a few years before the incident, a TV series called "The Last Emperor" was broadcasting. The situation described by the old lady
seems to correspond to the plot in the TV series one by one.
Even if the old lady is talented and has a great memory, it seems like such a thing is a bit too "coincidence".
Moreover, a few years before this incident, Northeast media reported a similar thing.
At that time, there was an old man named Wang Yubin, claiming that he was the biological son of the last emperor Puyi.As soon as the news of
came out, it immediately attracted the attention and reports of many media.
Later, this incident even alarmed the Chinese Academy of History, and experts came from Beijing to ask Wang Yubin about the situation.
Puyi's younger brother Pujie and their nephew Aisin Gioro Yuyan were all very concerned about this after hearing about it.
Finally, after everyone's investigation, Wang Yubin was pretending to be a fake.
Wang Yuyan himself also explained that he is a grassroots employee and has had "wrong thoughts" due to his unhappiness in life for a long time.
Therefore, I want to gain the attention of the public and seek benefits by impersonating "royal relatives".
Unexpectedly, the matter was exposed, and I could only lose face in front of the people of the whole country.
So, before arriving at the old lady's house, everyone's hearts were always in a state of "hanging".
(Puyi during the "Pushmanku Manchukuo" period)
Is the old lady the daughter of the last queen Wanrong? Experts believe that we have to look at the so-called "Queen Jade Seal" she mentioned.
However, the direction of the next thing can only be described as "laughing"!
3 Fake jade seal to identify the "fake princess"
and the group came to the old lady's house and saw the other party mysteriously took out a seal from his bedside table.
After the experts opened the layers of wrapped cloth, they were immediately disappointed.
This seal is completely a miscellaneous product with rough workmanship and poor quality.
There was indeed a "Queen's Seal" held by the queen in Chinese history. For example, The Emperor Gaozu of Han Liu Bang customized a seal for his wife Lu Zhi that symbolizes the status and power of the queen.
But this seal at the old lady's house actually carved with "simplified Chinese characters"!
You should know that simplified Chinese font is a font form that was promoted by the Chinese government in order to promote cultural education and improve the quality of the whole people after the founding of New China .
It can be seen from this alone that this so-called "Queen's Jade Seal" is a fake.
(the "Queen's Seal" given to Empress Lu by Emperor Gaozu Liu Bang of Han Dynasty)
In addition, the surface of this jade seal has obvious machine carving marks. Even if it is placed among "counterfeit antiques", it belongs to the worst-quality category.
Things like this can be said to be almost everywhere on antique street stalls.
Moreover, the content engraved is ridiculous.
Facing the well-founded rebuttals and questions of experts and scholars, the old lady admitted the fact that she "forged the empress's jade seal and raped the Qing princess."
Although they were very angry, the experts present still wanted to understand the real reason behind this "farce".
After the old lady was seen through by experts, she seemed to have let go of her guard and pressure in her heart, leaned back, and fell on the sofa, saying that there was still some reason for this, she just wanted to make some money with her identity as a princess.
According to the old lady's description, people gradually figured out the reason why he "pretended Wanrong's daughter".
After the reform and opening up, the old lady took the lead in opening a small restaurant in Changchun.
Old restaurant
At the beginning, because everyone wanted to be fresh, a large number of customers poured into her restaurant every day.
But soon several new restaurants opened around, which not only tasted better, but also were cheaper.
After a while, the old lady had no customers in this restaurant, and even if everyone needed to hold a banquet, they would not come to his hotel again.
During a break, the old lady watched the TV series "The Last Emperor" with her family.
She still remembers the scene of "Wanrong having an affair with the guard and giving birth to a daughter".
At this time, the old lady's family was here to give advice. According to age, the old lady is about the same age as this child. Why don't you go to Beijing to try impersonation?
The old lady thought that no matter whether she would be seen through by experts or not, as long as this matter is reported by the media, it will definitely attract attention.
At that time, their restaurant will definitely be overcrowded!
(Photo by Wanrong and Puyi)
It doesn’t matter whether it is true or false. As more people come and watch the fun, isn’t there any business to do!
So, driven by interests, the old lady and her family ran to the Palace Museum in Beijing and staged this "farce".
As for the so-called "Queen's Jade Seal", it was bought by the old lady from an antique vendor on the roadside.
Since the day when I made up my mind to pretend to be "Wanrong's daughter", the old lady has always been worried about being exposed.
Now, the truth of the matter has finally been revealed to the world, and the old lady can finally let go and live a life.
Shortly after this incident, the old lady changed her restaurant to the public and claimed that everything sold in their store was "court dishes".
No matter what the truth of the matter is, the old lady used the marketing advertisements made by "Wanrong's daughter" were quite successful.
As for Puyi's descendants, it is actually based on Puyi's own description in his book "My First Half of Life".
During the period when he was a puppet in the "pseudo Manchukuo", Wanrong did have an affair with the guards and gave birth to a daughter, but later the child died of illness.
Later, Wanrong also suffered from severe illness due to long-term opium smoking and completely became a "walking corpse".
945, the Soviet Union officially declared war on Japan, and hundreds of thousands of Soviet Red Army defeated the Japanese Kwantung Army with a destruction.
Puyi and Wanrong, two puppets supported by the Japanese Kwantung Army, also became "prisoners" of the Soviets.
Later, Puyi and Wanrong were detained separately by the Soviets. Three years later, Puyi heard that his wife Wanrong had long died in a prison in Jilin.
When Wanrong died, there was no one around her. It was the prison guard who first informed Wanrong of her death, and wrapped her body in a roll of straw mat and buried it in a hurry.
After Wanrong passed away, Puyi was not very sad. Because he never really fell in love with this woman in his entire life.
So, what are the secret stories about the love history between Puyi and Wanrong?
(Photo with some guests during Puyi's wedding)
4 The tragic love between Puyi and Wanrong
909, the historical stage of China ushered in a dramatic scene: the rulers of the Qing Dynasty Emperor Guangxu and Empress Dowager Cixi passed away one after another.
Since Emperor Guangxu did not give birth to children with Empress Longyu during his lifetime, the throne fell on the three-year-old Xiao Puyi.
Because Puyi was too young, his father, Prince Chun, was ordered to supervise the country, and people at that time called him the "Regent".
But although Zaifeng was nominally the Regent and according to the etiquette of the monarch and ministers, he was Puyi's minister.
If Puyi grows up in the future, Zaifeng must hand over all the national power to Puyi.
But history did not give Zaifeng and Puyi this opportunity. With the revolutionary beacon ignited at the top of the city of Wuchang , the Qing Dynasty's rule on the land of China also ushered in the "final chapter".
Six-year-old Puyi had no idea of the violent changes that were taking place outside the palace wall at this moment, and he was confusedly transformed from the emperor of the Qing Dynasty to the "Xun Emperor".
According to the agreement reached by the revolutionaries and the Qing government when the Republic of China was established, although Puyi abdicated, he could still live in the Forbidden City.
puyi
Moreover, Beiyang government will allocate a large amount of special fees every year for Manchu royal family to use.
It can be said that Puyi is one of the luckiest people among the "monarchs of the country" in all dynasties.
Slowly, Puyi grew up, and under the guidance of some eunuchs and palace maids, he also learned the secret of "male and female affairs".
So, the young Puyi often hangs out with the palace maids.
After a long time, he became infected with some diseases that seem difficult to describe to ordinary men.
According to the memories of the palace maids who had served Puyi, Puyi was a teenager and was full of energy at that time.
Every night, two or three palace maids would be summoned into the bedroom. Until he was exhausted, Puyi would fall asleep.
In order to prevent Puyi from running around, the eunuchs also locked the door of the bedroom tightly. No one else could enter without special circumstances.
Later, Puyi married two wives, namely: Empress Wanrong and concubine Wenxiu.
In terms of emotions, Puyi's emotions towards Wenxiu are far better than Wanrong.
Wenxiu
Because in Puyi's view, Wenxiu has received new education like herself and has more common languages to each other.
And Puyi’s marriage to Wanrong was regarded as a political means so that Puyi can work hard and restore his ancestors in the future.
Therefore, on the night of Puyi's wedding and Wanrong's wedding, Puyi was very cold to the queen and was even too lazy to pay attention to her.
, and Wanrong did not realize at all that this wedding would be the beginning of her "tragic fate".
At first, Wanrong thought Puyi was unwilling to be close to him because she was not good-looking.
So, she put on new clothes and did a lot of things for Puyi, trying to get Puyi's favor, but Puyi was still very cold to Wanrong as before.
At this time, Empress Dowager Longyu had already gone there, and no one in the palace could control Puyi.
, in desperation, Wanrong had to seek help from the old eunuchs and several imperial physicians in the palace at that time.
In order to let Puyi have sex with Wanrong as soon as possible, to continue the incest for the Aisin Jueluo family, the imperial physicians prepared a medicine for Puyi to take.
(Puyi after dressing up)
pharmacology was not developed enough in that era. After taking these drugs, Puyi not only did not experience the efficacy of the drugs, but he lost his fertility from then on.
From this time on, it is no secret that Puyi’s lack of fertility is no longer a secret in the palace.
Not only is the queen Wanrong extremely disliked Puyi, but many eunuchs and palace maids in the palace were discussing Puyi's condition in private.
This made Puyi feel extremely humiliated in his heart, and his mentality became very distorted.
Finally, these perverted emotions were vented on Wanrong without exception.
Just like that, on the night Wanrong married Puyi, their lives had already entered a pathetic "cycle".
On the contrary, many people have emerged and claimed to be his son or daughter after Puyi's death.
I don’t know what Puyi himself thought about the failure to leave his “children” in his heart.
However, all this has long turned into a distant legend with the waves of history.
(Women who smoked "big smoke" in the old society)
Conclusion:
The old time, the king and Xie Tang were swallowed, flew into the homes of ordinary people .
is now a brand new society. No one misses the past period, and no one really believes in the so-called "destiny and imperial power".
Our country is a "new China" created by revolutionary ancestors and ruled by the vast majority of people!
On the land of New China, the noblest one is never the so-called "royal relatives" or "hereditary nobles".
The interests of the people are always above everything else. When people move towards a better future with confidence, the whole world will be shocked by the power and confidence that the Chinese nation has burst out!
Because our national glory does not belong to any individual or group, but to every people on this land!
