Why did the Empress Dowager Cixi's uncle do his best to help her take power
Thank you for your attention and sharing, so that I will no longer be lonely and bored on the road of life. In 1861, Emperor Xianfeng died of illness at the age of 31.
After his death, the peerless Empress became a widow. The life of the Empress Dowager Cixi was graceful, and there were many rumors about the harem, but they were not recorded and confirmed by the official history, so that there are various versions circulating in the wild history, and it has still become a topic of conversation after tea and dinner.
The relationship between the Empress Dowager Cixi and her brother-in-law, Prince Gong, has also been widely discussed.
One of the most favored people around the Empress Dowager Cixi is Aixin Jueluo Yixun, who is the sixth child of Emperor Daoguang and the uncle of Empress Dowager Cixi, who was named Prince Gong by Emperor Daoguang's widow.
The two of them are close in age and can be regarded as the same age, and when Cixi first entered the palace, they had a close relationship and had a private relationship. Although after Xianfeng's death, Prince Gong helped Cixi in a coup d'état and overthrew the minister, there has been controversy about whether there was a real relationship between them.
From a moral point of view, their behavior must be an unethical transaction, but because of their high power, no one dares to say it. And Li Lianying, the eunuch beside the Empress Dowager Cixi, often had close contacts with the Empress Dowager Cixi.
Li Lianying was called Li Jinxi before entering the palace, and he was widely popular in the market for his unique hair accessory technique. Later, Li Jinxi became Cixi's right-hand man, and his hairstyle design made the Empress Dowager Cixi very satisfied, and was appreciated and reused by her.
The Empress Dowager Cixi even broke the royal ancestral system and named him the chief eunuch of the second grade. However, some people questioned Li Lianying's status as a eunuch, because he once married a famous prostitute in the capital and had four sons, which makes people doubt whether his physiology is a real eunuch.
However, whether it is Li Lianying's past or present, he is a confidant of the Empress Dowager Cixi and an indispensable and important figure in the palace.
When the Empress Dowager Cixi was young, she liked to drink late-night wine, Li Lianying took the opportunity to make a request, and the Empress Dowager often readily agreed, and Li Lianying took advantage of this to get a lot of benefits. Once, Cixi wanted to go to Xiangshan, and asked Cixi to write an inscription, and Li Lianying promised to help.
Thinking of Cixi's love for herself, Li Lianying wrote an inscription when the Queen Mother was drunk and successfully completed the task. The only one who took advantage of Lafayette was probably Li Lianying, and he was also the first person he dared to get the Queen Mother drunk to satisfy his selfish desires.
However, Li Lianying did not use this talent for the right path, which made the Qing court's atmosphere even more corrupt and accelerated the decline of the Qing Dynasty. It is rumored that Ma Peizhi is an imperial doctor, who once saw Cixi, and felt that the pulse was wrong, bribing the little eunuch next to Cixi to learn that Cixi had suffered from small postpartum sequelae, and it was also rumored that Li Lianying was castrated and unclean, and her tongue was successful.
However, these are wild histories, and the specific circumstances are unknown to outsiders.
