The ** centralized system during the Qing Dynasty reached an unprecedented peak, however, as the last feudal dynasty in China, the Qing Dynasty was particularly lagging behind and declining in the rise and fall of Chinese history.
Today, the Qing Dynasty has become a symbol that bears witness to China's past and provides inspiration for China's future development.
In the story of Pu Yi, the last emperor of that dynasty, we can see that even in the royal palace of noble status, he can only be a lonely soul. His life has long been bound by infamy and ridicule, and he can't even control his own destiny.
This is not what happened to him alone, many palace maids and eunuchs, and the emperor's favored concubines and children also live in a state of repression and inability to be free for various reasons.
They live like walking corpses, unable to truly live their lives.
The fall of the Qing Dynasty, is it good or bad for these Gege? Now, let's review the living conditions of Pu Yi's sisters after the fall of the Qing Dynasty, and see how they coped with the onslaught of new ideas.
In this era full of unknowns and challenges, frequent wars, Yuan Shikai's dream of restoration, and open and secret battles between various parties have added more variables and risks to this era.
In ancient China, although the Gege were in a prominent position, they were bound by the social concept of male superiority and inferiority of women, and their fate was in the hands of the Son of Heaven. The Son of Heaven is the most mysterious existence in their hearts.
For the sake of the peace and development of the country, Gege were often arranged by the Son of Heaven to make peace in remote areas to maintain the peace of the prosperous world. However, few people care whether they want to.
In the eyes of the Son of Heaven, the private affairs of children seem insignificant, and only the interests of the country are paramount.
In the last years of the Qing Dynasty, when Pu Yi became emperor, what was the fate of these royal princesses? Did they bravely escape the shackles of the palace, or did they struggle with the tide of the times?
Despite their noble status, the world is impermanent, and the wall is pushed by everyone. In that era when new ideas poured in like a flood, all the old institutions were abandoned, and these princesses were no exception, displaced by the ruin of their country.
They were freed from the shackles of the palace to a certain extent, and the management of the Geges became much looser, and they were even able to live out their old age in peace, which may be the best outcome for them.
Among them, Pu Yi's younger sister, Yun Huan, the seventh sister, had the right to marry a commoner, and changed her name to Jin Zhijian, becoming the last imperial aunt.
His father was the regent, and after the fall of the Qing Dynasty, although the palace was in decline, life was acceptable, and the conditions were not bad compared with those palaces that were forced to rob tombs. Prince Alcohol was very smart, and only sold his house after the founding of New China, and sold the house to an industrial school, and his descendants were mostly engaged in education.
In the change of the times, Yun Huan follows the trend, adjusts himself, adapts to the new life, and lives a stable and happy life in his later years. However, Da Ge Ge Yun's life was full of twists and turns, and she suffered from acute appendicitis after marrying Empress Wanrong's brother.
Traditional Chinese medicine failed to keep pace with world medicine, and the royal family's distrust of Western medicine caused Yun's condition to deteriorate rapidly, and she eventually died of acute appendicitis. Although Erge Gehe was young, when the Qing Dynasty was in danger, she also married Zheng Guangyuan under Puyi's arrangement.
Despite the hardships and hardships of life, Yun He and her husband lived happily ever after. Although Yun Xian, the third in line, married Pu Yi's classmate, her husband went to Taiwan alone, leaving his wife and children to live a lonely life in the mainland.
In the spring and autumn of 34 years, the couple reunited, the youthful appearance of the year has been tempered into the vicissitudes of life, and when the middle age is difficult, the state reached out to help her become a regular employee.
Wu Gege married Wan Jiaxi, who had studied in Japan, and after marriage, Yun Xin worked as a tailor and restaurant waiter to work hard for the family. With the joint efforts of the two, their four children have also become the pillars of the country.
Liugege is probably the happiest of the princesses, she is good at painting, and she is married to a husband she has never met, but her married life is still happy.
The happiness of the two stems from their mutual interests and long-term affection, and even though the changes of the times have made the royal family history, they still live an ordinary life in the equality of all beings in the era of peace.
Nowadays, the descendants of the royal family also have outstanding performances in the entertainment industry, such as Wu Jing, who has reached a new height at the box office, and the famous pianist Lang Lang, who have broken through a world in their respective fields with their own efforts, which is also an affirmation of the descendants of the royal family in today's society.
Not only that, singer Na Ying and Guan Xiaotong, who performed well in ace vs. ace, also had royal backgrounds, but they did not rely on the name of the royal family on the road to fame, but won the love of the public with their own efforts.
Now, 100 years after the Qing Dynasty, Chinese society has gone through turmoil and change, and finally found its own path of development. The earth-shaking changes and the emancipation of the mind have enabled people to enjoy a free and equal marriage.
In modern society, monogamy, free marriage has become the mainstream, and people have abandoned class prejudices. The individual who breaks the feudal shackles is in control of his own destiny, which provides a strong impetus for us to struggle in today's society.
History is written by the people, and I believe that life will be better in the future, and female compatriots will be able to win the respect of society and have a more colorful life.
