"Since ancient times, the country of chaos by eunuchs has its roots in women's calamities. Women, sex only, the harm of eunuchs, not one end." The great masters of the Northern Song Dynasty Ouyang Xiu directly spoke out the eunuch in sharp language Misunderstanding the country is more harmful than women. Women are nothing but beauty, and eunuchs involve a lot of aspects. Under the eunuch's instigation and enchantment, the emperor is a relative of villains and distant loyal ministers, eventually becoming lonely.
There have been eunuchs intervening in politics and even controlling the government in many dynasties. The Ming Dynasty Wei Zhongxian is the best example. Probably the Qing Dynasty summed up the lessons of the first dynasty. The eunuchs of the Qing dynasty are still in peace. These eunuchs witnessed the rise and fall of the Qing dynasty. The last eunuch in the Qing dynasty revealed the secret: the concubine never did it himself in the bath, and the process was hard to tell. What kind of secret is it?
Life is hard and cruel and castrated
There are eunuchs in the harem of each dynasty, but the title is different. The harem is the world of women. The emperor is not only the lord of the harem, but also the only man in the harem. However, the harem is wide and has many trivial matters, and a lot of energy can not be completed by the maidens. At this time, it shows the role of eunuchs. If the eunuchs have a bit of culture and mind , In the harem can also be mixed into a figure with a head and a face.
" Xiaode Zhang" is Cixi's favorite eunuch. When he came home to visit, he could be said to be returning home in good clothes. It aroused the envy of the villagers. One of the boys who was about ten years old couldn't stand it. Xiao De Zhang, who was hungry and looked at the extraordinary scenery, moved his mind to become a eunuch.
Although my father was reluctant to give up, his life was difficult and unable to sustain,He cruelly castrated his son at home with a knife.
The father was unskilled and his son fainted for three days before he woke up. After seeing his son walk through Guimenguan, his father began to explore the channels for entering the palace to become eunuchs. At this time, the Qing Dynasty perished, and a large number of palace ladies and eunuchs were expelled from the palace, leaving the family discouraged. , And this hapless child is the last eunuch of the Qing Dynasty Sun Yaoting.
Serving the Lord from the End of Life
Sun Yaoting has no chance to enter the palace, but according to the “agreement” signed in the “abdication edict”, the Qing imperial family still lives in the Forbidden City, although the relatives of the imperial family are still living in the Forbidden City. Outside the palace, but still retains the traditional feudal customs, the servants still need maids, eunuchs, etc., with a recruitment, Sun Yaoting entered the Aixinjueluo·Zaitao Mansion to work, and finally did not starve to death.
Soon after, Sun Yaoting got to know Xin Hengru, the eunuch leader of the north garden of the palace. Under Xin Hengru’s introduction, Sun Yaoting survived desperately and finally entered the palace. He was 15 years old that year and officially became the palace. The eunuch was only Xin Hengru's little attendant at first, serving Xin Hengru's diet and daily life, and received a lot of beatings and scolding, but Sun Yaoting had a good temper and was going to come, so he slowly stood up in the palace.
Kung fu pays off. In the second year of entering the palace, when the Emperor Duan Kang watched the show together, he felt that the little eunuch Sun Yaoting was clever and clever, so he asked him to follow the troupe. After that, he entered the secretary's room of the House of Internal Affairs. Because of his diligent hands and feet, and his well-behaved speaking, he was quickly promoted, from a small eunuch who was doing rough work to a personal eunuch who served the queen's master.
Uncover the secret of the concubine’s bathing
Wanrong was the last queen of the Qing Dynasty,Although she grew up in a large feudal family, she has received many Western cultural influences. For example, she loves to burn her hair and wear high heels. The status of a queen provides convenient conditions for satisfying her preferences. It's just that this seemingly glamorous appearance has a lot of unknown pains, and she can't tell a lot of pains, and can only resolve them by looking for other fun.
Puyi seldom patronize the harem, Wanrong cardamom years are wasted in the Forbidden City, every day with the maids and eunuchs as companions, these maids and eunuchs are her only playmates and even her She did not shy away from these eunuchs when she took a bath. During the whole process of taking a bath, she never did it by herself, she just sat there still, and the rest was served by the maids and eunuchs.
Wan Rong is the daughter of a famous family. She has lived a luxurious life of stretching her hands with clothes and opening her mouth when she was a child. People who are accustomed to being served will of course not do it by themselves, from undressing, bathing, and dressing. In the whole process, the court ladies and eunuchs kneeled and waited on her side. After Wanrong took a bath, these court ladies and eunuchs had knees numb, and these were things that Wanrong was accustomed to.
Rebirth from the displacement
Not to mention the difference between men and women in ancient times, even modern men and women have to be separated in bathing, and Wan Rong does not avoid the existence of eunuchs in the bath, and the whole process is in the eyes of the eunuchs. The process is really hard to tell. As a queen, Wanrong ignored this. She could only explain that in her eyes she did not regard the eunuch as a man, or even regarded the eunuch as a human being.
Even if Sun Yaoting chooses to be an eunuch, whether it is for food or for the so-called dignity, he can only ask for life with a low eyebrow in front of the master, even if he is not regarded as a human being. Look, he has to accept it too. Since he was castrated, there has been no turning back. Only by taking care of his master can he survive in the deep palace of eating people without spitting out bones.
It’s just that these days did not last long,Puyi was finally expelled from the Forbidden City. During the period when Puyi had no fixed home, Sun Yaoting continued to serve Wanrong at the home of the regent’s and Zaifeng. After that, Wanrong went to find Puyi, and Sun Yaoting’s eight-year eunuch career ended. In the Forbidden City, after leaving the master, what awaits him is a life of wandering and wandering.
Sun Yaoting is an eunuch. Of course he has no land of his own. He hasn't gotten to the point where he has a master to appreciate the fields. When he returned to the countryside, he didn't have the glory of Xiaode Zhang, but went around and went back to the original point. He started again. Worried about life, he had no choice but to return to Beijing and live in Xinglong Temple with more than forty eunuchs who had left the palace.
It was not until after the liberation that Sun Yaoting and these forty eunuchs were reborn and allowed them to truly become human beings. The government found a job for them and paid 16 yuan a month for living expenses so that they could have food. After that, Sun Yaoting was assigned to a certain unit to take care of work based on his studies for several years, and his life gradually improved. In his later years, Sun Yaoting lived in the Guanghua Temple . In 1996, the last eunuch of the Qing Dynasty passed away at the age of 94.
Summary
Sun Yaoting was forced by life to go to the palace and became a eunuch when he had to change his life from the perspective of his own situation. It’s just that he was born at an untimely time. The demise of the Qing Dynasty destined his road to eunuchs will not last long. If the Qing Dynasty continues to exist, he might be another Xiaode Zhang, or Lilianying.
There is nothing in the world. If there is only a result, Sun Yaoting finally returned to the ordinary people. In the palace, there may be the glory that others envy, but there is inhuman "treatment". Only after liberation did he, an incomplete man, really stand up and become a man.And what he gave back to the world was his autobiography, the last eunuch of the Qing Dynasty used his own blood and tears to uncover the secrets of the deep palace.
