As the old saying goes: the building near the water gets the moon first. Originally, it was a good saying, if it was used for promotion in ancient times, whoever was close to the emperor would be a celebrity next to the emperor, and the chance of promotion would be greater. Just like Heshen back then, he was with the emperor every day, and later there was a saying that he was the first greedy today.
Of course, there may be some exceptions, although some courtiers are often with the emperor, but they secretly betray the emperor and do some things to be sorry for the emperor, and the final outcome is certainly not very good. Just like today's incident, there were two guards back then, who were the most trusted people of the last emperor, but they turned out to have an affair with the queen, and the ending was unimaginable.
Time went back to 100 years ago, in December 1922, the Forbidden City, which had been relatively deserted, had a great event. It turned out that the last emperor Pu Yi got married, he was only 16 years old at the time, and the queen's name was Wanrong, who became the new owner of Chuxiu Palace. The queen was born in November 1906, and her father was the famous Rongyuan.
When the child was not born, the father thought that the child was a boy, so he named the child Wanlong in advance, but he didn't expect that it was a daughter, so the father changed Wanlong to Wanrong. Wanrong, who was born in a famous family, is not ordinary when she is a child, her father is the Minister of Internal Affairs, and her mother is the direct granddaughter of Emperor Qianlong V. Why was Wanrong able to ascend to the queen's throne? It turned out that the concubine who was selected by Pu Yi at that time also had a girl named Wen Xiu, and this girl was chosen for the first time, but the other party had a poor family background compared to Wanrong, because Wen Xiu's mother only washed clothes for a living, so the position of queen was given to Wanrong.
At that time, Wanrong was very beautiful, and received Chinese and Western education, among the two wives, the last emperor had the best for Wanrong. often play with her in the palace, such as taking pictures, riding bicycles, etc., but the good days are not long, and as soon as the sweet days of two years pass, an accident happens. In 1924, Feng Yuxiang launched a coup d'état and drove all the Pu Yi and others who remained in the palace out of the palace. Unexpectedly, after leaving the palace, Wanrong seemed to be a different person.
Like a wild horse that has escaped, and like a bird leaving the birdcage, Wanrong immediately changed the flag outfit on her body after coming out, and directly put on the modern clothes that were popular at that time, and of course, she will perm her hair with high heels, just like the pop stars you see now. You may not know that Wanrong still likes to chase stars at that time. Wanrong often asked her guards to bring her various fashion magazines, including movie star magazines, to which Pu Yi met her requirements one by one. Compared with Wanrong, the much more elegant Wenxiu often guards the empty room alone, and the most painful thing is that he often hears the emperor's voice from Wanrong's house not far away in his empty house.
During this time, Wenxiu was quite desperate, she cried, but she didn't dare to speak out, for fear that the emperor would know, and her heart was like a knife. She knows herself very well that she is not graceful and beautiful, nor does the other party have a prominent family background, nor does she have the liveliness after Chinese and Western education. Not only that, but her views on politics are not the same as Pu Yi's. Pu Yi had always wanted to restore his position as emperor by the hands of the Japanese, but Wenxiu believed that the Japanese had done too many bad things and could not cooperate with the Japanese. Due to the difference in political opinions, Pu Yi disliked Wen Xiu more and more, and she committed suicide many times, Pu Yi was indifferent to it, and Wen Xiu filed for divorce in 1931.
Throughout the history of China, there is indeed no emperor who was asked for a divorce by his concubine, and it happened to Pu Yi. After the divorce, Pu Yi was very angry and often took his resentment out of Wanrong, because he thought it was the result of the jealousy of the two women. For Wanrong Puyi, he has changed, from his previous love to coldness. At this time, Wanrong is not easy, and she is at a low point in her life. While she was monitored by the Japanese, she endured the emperor's cold eyes on her, and when she was bored, she became obsessed with smoking a cigarette to get rid of the depression in her heart. Due to Pu Yi's well-known physical reasons, out of physiological needs, she actually chose to have an affair with the guards around the emperor.
This guard's name was Qi Jizhong, he was young and strong at the time, and he also fell in love with Wanrong. He also bribed Wanrong's servants, and often found opportunities to be with Wanrong. In 1935, Wanrong became pregnant and was Qi Jizhong's child. Pu Yi, who had never known the truth about this, was very optimistic about this guard, and even transferred him to the Japanese Army Non-commissioned Officer School to study. As soon as Qi Jizhong left, Wanrong fell in love with another guard, this person was named Li Tiyu. Once Pu Yi saw a lipstick mark on the mouth of the guard Li Sports and asked him what was wrong. Li Sports didn't dare to tell the truth about being with Wanrong just now, so he hurriedly found other excuses and pushed it over.
Soon after, Wanrong was about to give birth, and it was only then that Pu Yi understood what was happening. It is said that the guard brought himself a green hat, and he could kill these two people, but what he didn't expect was that Pu Yi not only did not kill them, but also gave each of them 400 silver dollars to let them leave quietly. The reason is estimated to be that although Pu Yi is extremely angry, he also has to take care of his reputation, after all, he is an emperor, and if he spreads it, his face will be lost, so he can only let them go. The two guards, who were not killed and did not dare to stay, immediately left quietly.
After leaving, the fate of the two people was also different, Qi Jizhong later became a traitor, operating in North China, and was finally caught by the police and shot directly. Li Tiyu works in a hospital, mainly taking care of the animals that are ready to be used for experiments, and lives an ordinary life. Li Tiyu also met Pu Yi when he was in New China, and when he saw the other party for the first time, he still called Pu Yi the emperor. For the hatred of the past, Pu Yi no longer cared about it at this time, and they became friends. Later, the Li family had financial difficulties, and after learning about the situation, Pu Yi also helped him.
Wanrong gave birth to a daughter, but was thrown into the boiler by Pu Yi, and she didn't know that her daughter was no longer alive until she died. In 1946, while in prison, she went insane and died tragically, and the last queen came to an end. For many people who don't know her, it seems that she has been here, but it seems that she has never come, like a gust of wind blowing, there is no big turmoil.
Life is sometimes like a flash in the pan, with ups and downs. Someone said it well, it's like a farce, no matter what you encounter or see, it's constantly changing. Just like Wanrong, the once noble royal life finally disappeared silently in the war, leaving only the lamentation of posterity. From the very beginning of her marriage, Wanrong was destined to get a regrettable tragedy.
