The princes of the Qing Dynasty are all the proud daughters of heaven and have been superior since they were born. However, with the demise of the Qing Dynasty, the princes became ordinary people. Some people have miserable fates, some are still dazzling, and many princes have even become popular big stars. So who are these celebrity princesses? Today we will talk about this topic.
First of all, we must be clear that princess is not the same as princess. Generally, the daughters of royal nobles in the Qing Dynasty can be called princess. Sometimes women who are not royal can also be called princess, such as Su Malagu (Note: Su Malagu was the maid of Empress Wen of the Qing Dynasty. She came from an ordinary Mongolian herdsman family and entered the Lao Jin court with Xiaozhuang). After talking about what the princess is, let’s talk about the fate of the princesses in the late Qing Dynasty.
On February 12, 1912, the Qing Dynasty was completely destroyed, and the princesses in the palace became ordinary women, carrying one head on both shoulders is no different from the common people. If the Qing Dynasty had not perished, they would definitely marry the powerful and powerful, either marrying the Mongolian nobles or marrying the sons of powerful ministers. Because the Republic of China government did not make things difficult for the Qing royal family, Puyi went to the puppet Manchukuo to be a puppet emperor, so some Qing dynasties remained married to the Qing dynasty princes. For example, Puyi's second sister married the grandson of Zheng Xiaoxu, the governor of Hunan in the Qing Dynasty, and the fourth sister married the son of Zhao Jingqi, the governor of the Qing Dynasty. As the saying goes, "A lean camel is bigger than a horse." The Qing Dynasty's remaining ministers and nobles had a lot of family property, and they had a wide connection, even if they lost their officials and gentry, they had an advantage over ordinary people in any business. If they were smart enough to deal with people and things, it would be normal to become a wealthy chaebol. Even if they don’t do business, it is not difficult for those second-generation officials in the Qing Dynasty to stay in school and return to China to find a good job, so the princesses who married into these families still have a good life. There were also some princesses who were still young at that time. After the fall of the Qing Dynasty, they had no value for marriage and had no agreed engagement. What will be the fate of these princes?
In fact, most princesses marry ordinary people, such as Puyi’s youngest sister Yunhuan. When she was a child, she was educated in Western style and grew up with a vocational school for women, and later married the school’s teacher Qiao Hongzhi. After the founding of New China, she became the director of a middle school in Beijing, until she died of illness in early summer 2004. Judging from these examples, the princes of the Qing Dynasty were all pretty good. In fact, these were the daughters of the Regent Zaifeng . Their family had a good foundation, so even if the Qing Dynasty was destroyed, they were still rich girls. If the princes had not yet married and met the father and brother of the prodigal son, then life would be very difficult. For example, the last Prince Rui Zhong Quan and Zhong Ming both lost all their houses and fields, and later they were so poor that they could not go to their own ancestral grave to find money. Many of the prodigal princes like this, their daughters or sisters mostly go out to set up stalls or do handicrafts for the shops to make a living.
Not to mention the daughters and sisters of these devastating princes, Puyi's younger sister also has many miserable lives, such as the second sister Yunsu mentioned above. She married Zheng Xiaoxu's grandson, but Zheng Xiaoxu did not do business but followed him to work in the puppet Manchukuo. After the puppet Manchukuo fell, Zheng Xiaoxu's family was poor and destitute. Yunsu, the princess, once made a living by begging. In fact, most princesses are like Yunsu. They have been pampering since childhood, and they have no diligence in their limbs and no grains. When the glory of their bodies fades, they don’t even have basic survival skills, and the psychological gap is large, so they live a very miserable life.
The Qing Dynasty had good luck and perished in modern times, and members of the royal family were not massacred and expelled.In fact, many celebrities are considered nobles in the Qing Dynasty, and several popular actresses can call princesses in the Qing Dynasty. Who are they? We all know that Cixi is the Yehenara clan. This is an ancient tribe of Jurchen . Most of its tribes live in the area of Liaodong . Later, the Jurchens entered the Central Plains, and the Yehenara clan produced many concubines and queens. Now many celebrities are also from the Yehenara clan. For example, the well-known singer Na Ying is also from the Yehenara clan. There are also Li Zonghan who played Wu Yong in "New Water Margin", and Na Weixun, who played the black dragon in "Ultimate Class 1", also comes from the Yehenara clan. In recent years, the popular Wu Jing was born in the Ulanara clan of the Manchu Zhengbai Banner. The movie star Tong Dawei is also from the Zhengbai Banner. The Hu Jun Hu Daxia is from the Yellow Banner. The pianist Lang Lang is from the Yellow Banner. In addition, the famous movie star Guan Zhilin is from the Yellow Banner Guaerjia clan, and is one of the eight surnames of the Manchu . There is also Jin Qiaoqiao, who specializes in playing princesses. In fact, she is the Aixin Jueluo family in the Huangqi. These actresses who came from Eight Banners may all be called princesses in the Qing Dynasty.
However, since the founding of New China, the people of the whole country have been equal and free, and all ethnic groups are also brothers and sisters. What’s ridiculous is that there are some old men and aunts pointing at the Tongtian pattern on their foreheads that they claim to be from the Eight Banners and asking others to give up their seats to them. This kind of self-proclaimed nobles is really servile. China's thousands of years of history, starting from the Yanhuang era, Spring and Autumn and Warring States Periods, , Chu and Han battle for hegemony, the Three Kingdoms, Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, , and then to the Tang, Song, Yuan and Ming dynasties, there were more kings, princes, generals and ministers, and counting who were not nobles, so now they still have the feudal remnants of thought, which is just a laughing stock.
