In the first period after entering the palace, Wenxiu and Puyi had a good relationship, and she was very knowledgeable in learning. Puyi would often write with her about that there was a good time between the imperial concubines.
Later, the relationship between Puyi and Wenxiu gradually deteriorated, and eventually it evolved into Wenxiu's initiative to divorce Puyi, and Wenxiu as the "emperor" concubine ended actively. The marriage with Puyi! So why did she divorce Puyi? What is the reason for this?
After entering the palace, Puyi gradually lost patience with her and began to ignore her, which made Wenxiu very sad.

This makes Wenxiu very hurt! This also caused her to become more and more estranged from Pu Yi.
After two years of marriage, Pu Yi was "invited" out of the palace by Feng Yuxiang, and Pu Yi moved to Tianjin. At this time, Wan Rong was happy because she grew up in Tianjin. He often went out to socialize with Puyi, while Wenxiu stayed at home. As time passed, Wenxiu felt like she was a widow. From then on, Puyi often scolded Wenxiu.
