Before the founding of the People's Republic of China, especially between the 1920s and 1950s, there were many major cases in Chinese history, many of which were untested and became unsolved cases. Beijing News Conference continues to launch a series of interpretations of unsolved cases in the world, and headlines first released . Welcome to follow the Toutiao account. (It is recommended to collect and read)
From the Ming and Qing Dynasties to before liberation, there were many theft cases in the Forbidden City . The biggest influence was that happened in August 1932. After 16 years, dozens of high-ranking officials and cultural celebrities were involved, including Yi Peiji, the director who was the manager and his son-in-law Li Zongtong. And this major case that shocked China was caused by a woman. This woman was like a fuse, and finally one day detonated the explosive behind her.
In this issue, we will peel off the thread and talk to you about the "fuse" of this shocking case. Let’s see how the appearance of a bad woman affects the fate of the Forbidden City.
Puyi left the palace, and the Forbidden City established a museum
Puyi abdicated, and he still stayed in the Forbidden City. The government of the Republic of China allocated four million taels of silver as daily expenses every year. It was not until 1924 that Feng Yuxiang launched a coup in Beijing and Puyi was expelled from the palace, and the government of the Republic of China took over the Forbidden City and managed it by the government. After Puyi left the palace, considering that the large number of treasures stored in the palace and the authenticity of daily necessities were mixed together, a Qing Dynasty post-natal descendant and professor Li Shizeng Peking University The aftermath committee was originally a temporary institution. After more than a year, it established the Palace Museum and established a board of directors. When the Palace Museum was first established, it did not elect the president, but instead elected the representative to preside over the affairs of the hospital and organized personnel to count the items in the palace. At that time, Yi Peiji was in charge of the hospital affairs.
The funds are tight, and the treasures are sold
The Palace Museum was opened shortly after it was opened. Due to the difficulties in funding, it was impossible to maintain it. In desperation, it had to use the precious furs, medicinal materials, etc. of the Forbidden City to deal with the low price to supplement the insufficient funds with the proceeds. This matter was advocated by Yi Peiji's son-in-law Li Zongtong. He advocated doing this for two reasons: First, he believed that these items had nothing to do with archaeology and literature, and had no artistic value or cultural relics, and there was no need to preserve them; second, such items would inevitably suffer from mold and damage if they were collected for too long, which would turn the treasure into waste. Instead of doing so, it would be better to deal with them as soon as possible and turn them into treasure. In addition, this method of handling has been used by the Qing Office's aftermath committee. Therefore, when dealing with these items, the old method was adopted, that is, in accordance with the regulations, they proposed in batches, registered and organized, and then invited furnishers and medicinal materials experts from Beijing to inspect the goods, evaluate the value in advance, and announce the regular bidding. Just like the current bus auction.
Key characters appear, the shrewd woman is in the Forbidden City
The buying and selling location of the fur goods is located in the wing room east of the Forbidden City Shenwumen . At this time, a pivotal figure appeared. This person is Cui Zhenhua, and he is the wife of Zhang Ji, the vice president of the Judicial Court of the National Government and director of the Documentation Library. She knew there was "good stuff" there to deal with, so she made a special trip to see the fur that was treasured in Ouchi. Because she was familiar with the path, she turned around and walked east as soon as she entered Shenwu Gate. However, the police on duty did not know her. Seeing that she did not have the badges sent by the Palace Museum to the staff and did not have a visitor ticket, she regarded her as an ordinary tourist who was traveling eastward by mistake (at that time, the Palace Museum was only open to the public for the middle road). So she stopped her and asked her to visit the Imperial Garden.
Cui Zhenhua is used to being domineering and does not obey the police's command at all, and does not explain the purpose of the visit, and insists on going east. The police on duty lies. Since she mistakenly thought that Cui Zhenhua was just an ordinary tourist who took the wrong path, she certainly refused to let her go. Cui Zhenhua was furious and used the prestige of his wife, shouting and scolding the policeman. The police didn't know her, and the profession of police was used to being arrogant to the common people, so they not only refused to let her in, but instead asked her what her surname was.Cui Zhenhua had never suffered such cowardice. She suddenly lost her mind and shouted, "I don't have a surname, my surname is Tian!" The police found it more and more funny and said that she was a crazy person. She was even more angry and started to make a big fuss. After such a commotion, people passing by nearby gathered to watch the fun, and Shenwu Gate was soon crowded by onlookers.
was in trouble. A staff member of the documentary museum came out to do business. Seeing that the crowd was clamoring, he squeezed into the crowd and looked in. When he saw that the protagonist of the trouble was actually this noble lady with a reputation not below Zhang Ji. He knew that he had a big fuss, so he hurriedly lined up and squeezed in, and told the policeman on duty loudly: "Don't argue anymore, this is the wife of Director Zhang Ji of the Documents Museum!" When the police heard this, they immediately became angry and quickly apologized with a smile on their faces and bowed to invite Cui Zhenhua to walk in.
Seeing that defeat was turned into victory, Cui Zhenhua immediately cursed: "You snob bastards are used to bullying civilians! If you don't know I am Mrs. Zhang, you won't let me in; now if you know, please invite me in, you must give me this reason!" At this time, the policeman was so arrogant that he didn't dare to let go, and he lowered his head and listened to her tantrums. Fortunately, the documentary staff member was quite honest and had twelve degrees of patience. He accompanied Cui Zhenhua into the door with a smile and half-pushed look, and accompanied him to the fur sales place.
Cui Zhenhua was still angry and was still yelling along the way. As the saying goes, the enemy is narrow. As soon as you enter the door of the sales office, Yi Peiji and Li Zongtong are both there, and the father-in-law and son-in-law are talking about something. Yi Peiji is an old fry after all. At a glance, he saw Cui Zhenhua full of anger and aura. He pretended not to see it. Before Cui Zhenhua got closer, he didn't even say hello, so he turned around and left. Li Zongtong could not escape, so he had to go forward and make a fuss. Cui Zhenhua, who was still angry, found the breathing mouth, and immediately became energetic and blamed Li Zongtong loudly: "Okay! I'm just looking for you. You are cheating here all day to make money, and there is a sentry at the gate to prevent me from coming in. The police are rude to me, it is because of your lack of discipline and incompetence in your daily life."
Young Master is not easy to mess with, and the situation is escalating
Li Zongtong was originally a young master from a wealthy family and has always had a big temper. Besides, he had no idea what was happening outside. At this time, he was scolded by Cui Zhenhua for no reason, and of course the boss was unhappy. Even though Choi Zhenhua was his elder, he felt that he couldn't swallow this. Therefore, he not only refused to bow his head and apologize to Cui Zhenhua, but instead directly contradicted her and said, "Since you are going to see the fur today, you should notify me in advance, and I will in advance instruct the police to let you come here. If you didn't tell me earlier, how could you blame me?" Li Zongtong is Li Shizeng's nephew and Yi Peiji's son-in-law. Li Shizeng and Yi Peiji are about the same age as Zhang Ji and are colleagues. Therefore, although Cui Zhenhua is not old, he has always regarded himself as an elder to Li Zongtong. At this time, she saw that Li Zongtong actually spoke to her with such an attitude, and she couldn't help but get angry and became arrogant at Li Zongtong.
Li Zongtong is not a person who can easily surrender, and he thinks he is not wrong at all in this matter. The two of them talked and refused to give in. Although Li Zongtong is the secretary-general, the person in front of him is an elder and a woman; as the saying goes, a good man does not fight with a woman. In the end, he didn't dare to let go of his courage and argue with this lady. Now he was at a disadvantage and was very embarrassed by Cui Zhenhua's aggressive scolding.
Although the wind on the pillow is small, Xiren's bone marrow
Cui Zhenping returned home and his anger suddenly rose again. While accusing her husband Zhang Ji of failing to manage his subordinates, he also ordered Zhang Ji to complain to Yi Peiji and ask Yi Peiji to punish Li Zongtong to relieve the hatred in his heart. Zhang Ji, who has always been famous for his fear of his wife, naturally did not dare to disobey. He immediately called Yi Peiji and asked Yi Peiji to severely blame Li Zongtong as his father-in-law and boss. However, Yi Peiji knew Cui Zhenhua's nature and knew that although Zhang Ji was in a high position, he was a person who was afraid of his wife. Therefore, after hearing about this, he just perfunctory on the surface and ignored it afterwards. Cui Zhenhua was waiting at home to see how Yi Peiji punished Li Zongtong, but waited and could not hear anything.This arrogant and narrow-minded woman couldn't help but be angry, thinking that Yi Peiji was deliberately favoring her son-in-law Li Zongtong.
According to ordinary people's logic, such verbal disputes are originally small things that cannot be more small. To put it in detail, no one is wrong with this matter itself. We can't blame the policeman on duty, nor can we blame Li Zongtong who was unaware of it. However, Cui Zhenhua's words and deeds are a bit too much. People don't know what your identity Cui Zhenhua is, so they naturally have to follow the rules. If you think you have a special identity and want to exercise your privileges, you should at least report yourself to your family. But this woman was so pretentious, and she felt that it was too rude to report her name and identity in front of a small policeman. She thought everyone should know her. If you don’t know me, it’s a great insult to me. And let me report myself? It's just a rebellion!
Cui Zhenhua is a vengeful person. After Yi Peiji dragged on this, her anger moved to Yi Peiji again. She felt that the reason why Li Zongtong refused to bow his head and dared to confront her face was because he believed that his father-in-law was Yi Peiji. Therefore, if you want to punish Li Zongtong, you must destroy it with Yi Peiji. At this point, Cui Zhenhua had made up his mind and would never give up until he collapsed Yi Peiji and Li Zongtong. So, she began to secretly collect materials about the "bad" of Yi and Li from the staff of the Palace Museum, waiting for an opportunity to retaliate. Yi Peiji and Li Zongtong didn't take this matter seriously at all. Although they all knew that Cui Zhenhua was a woman who was unreasonable and unreasonable, they also knew that she was narrow-minded and paranoid. But they still thought that the fact that happened in the Palace of Forbidden City was just a small episode that started due to a misunderstanding. With Cui Zhenhua's identity, even if she had a grudge, she would not be worried about such a small matter in order to take into account her own face. They never expected that just for such a small matter, a huge disaster had quietly come to them. It also directly contributed to the occurrence of the "Treasure theft of the Forbidden City".
Many major events in the world often start with a trivial matter. This is the so-called "butterfly effect". The initial fuse of the "Treasure Stealing Case in the Forbidden City" was actually this seemingly trivial matter. In daily life, these small things happen almost every minute and every second. But when a special person happens, it becomes a storm that swept the political arena and the market.
