Aixinjue Luo Zaizhen inherited his father's title of Prince Qing of the iron hat. At the end of the Qing Dynasty, after the reform of the imperial court institutions and the establishment of the Ministry of Agriculture and Industry and Commerce, Zai Zhen served as the first minister of Shangshu, and the official rank was a product.
Zai Zhen is the eldest son of Prince Qing Yixuan, and his great-grandfather is Yongxuan, the seventeenth son of Qianlong.
In the last years of the Qing Dynasty, Yi Liang was a famous minister of the clan. Because of his follow-up and allegiance to the Empress Dowager Cixi, he was later crowned with the title of prince, and was replaced by a hereditary grace, becoming the last iron hat king of the Qing Dynasty. For such a close branch clan, it is already quite good. Presumably, Yixuan got this iron hat king, and he paid much less than Yinxiang.
So, what kind of character is Yixuan's eldest son Jae-jin?
Great grandfather: Aisin Jueluo Hongli (1711-1799).
Great-grandfather: Ai Xin Jue Luo Yongxuan (1766-1820).
Grandfather: Aisin Jueluo Mian (1814-1879).
Father: Ai Xin Jue Luo Yixuan (1838-1917).
Himself: Aisin Jue Luo Zaizhen (1876-1947).
Zai Zhen was born in 1876, 5 years younger than his cousin Guangxu. At the age of 14, the imperial court rewarded him with a headpiece; Five years later, he was promoted to the rank of second-class general of Zhenguo.
At the age of 26, with his father's status as the prime minister of the cabinet in the imperial court, Jaejin was crowned Gushan Beizi again.
After having the title of Viscount Bei, Zai Zhen began to be highly used in the Guangxu Dynasty.
The following year, he went to England on behalf of Qing ** to attend Edward's coronation. After arriving in the UK, what he represented was the entire Qing Dynasty**, which can be said to be equivalent to the current ambassador abroad.
After attending this ceremony, he went directly to four other countries for state visits without stopping. These include the United States, Japan, France, and Belgium.
Although Zai Zhen was not ranked among the six exercises, the Westernization movement at that time had developed to a critical period. Therefore, going abroad for an inspection is a very good errand, and it is difficult for ordinary clan ministers to enjoy such treatment.
Everyone knows that Kang Youwei, Liang Qichao and others wrote on the bus in order to be able to reform and change the law and implement constitutional government. Although it is said that the reform failed at the hands of the Empress Dowager Cixi.
Later, in 1903, the imperial court appointed Zai Zhen and other clan members to go abroad to Japan for inspection, and they happened to participate in the fifth exposition, which can be said to have gained a lot.
When Zai Zhen returned to China, the country had already reformed and implemented a new policy. According to his understanding at the Japan Expo, he believed that the current business was also very important, so he directly asked the imperial court to set up a commercial department, and with the consent of the Empress Dowager Cixi, Emperor Guangxu issued a decree to establish the Ministry of Commerce, and let Zai Zhen serve as the first minister of Shangshu.
Then, during the Guangxu period, in addition to serving as the minister of commerce, he also served as the management of the firearms battalion, the chief patriarch of the Zhengbai Banner, the former minister, and the commander of the Han Army of the Zhengbai Banner, these positions are very important, and it can be seen that his father Yixuan is not only a celebrity around Cixi, but he should also be a celebrity.
In 1907, the 32-year-old Zai Zhen was ordered to go to the Northeast to handle school supervision affairs. After arriving in Tianjin, a local ** bribed him, hoping to be able to take the position of governor of Heilongjiang. After Zai Zhen**, he actually used these huge sums of money to buy a famous singer, and was later known by the imperial court, at this time, the imperial historian of the imperial court was not a vegetarian, whether his father was the prime minister of the cabinet or not, he directly went to Emperor Guangxu **, hoping to give Zai Zhen the punishment he deserved.
This incident also had a lot of movement in Kyoto at that time. Since there is a royal history to **, the imperial court can not sit idly by, and later arranged for the Qin to send an order to go out of Beijing to investigate, but there is no evidence. This imperial historian was also unlucky, and his official position was also deprived.
At this time, Prince Qing Yixuan had realized that this matter was not so simple, and in order to keep his position as the iron hat king and prime minister of the cabinet, he asked his eldest son Zaizhen to take the initiative to resign from the imperial court.
At this point, Zai Zhen did not hold any substantive position in the imperial court until his death. But in the Xuantong Dynasty, the imperial court still let him serve as the deputy commander, and later served as the adviser minister of the Bide Academy, in fact, these are all false positions, and there is no real power.
Later, living in Tianjin's Qingwang Mansion, basically from the past politics and ** more and more farther away, after selling all the inheritance of his prince's mansion, relying on these funds to do some financial investment things, it is said that the business community in Tianjin at that time was still famous.
In 1947, Jae-jin's condition became more and more serious, and he finally died at the age of 72 due to ineffective medical treatment.
