Puyi was driven out of the palace, leaving "an apple with a bite" and still in the palace six months later?

After Pu Yi abdicated, he can still live in the Forbidden City and continue to be his "closed-door" emperor according to the preferential regulations for cleaning rooms. However, a few years later, Puyi was expelled from the Forbidden City, and there was one thing left unfinished before leaving the Forbidden City. So what did he leave behind?

1924165438+1On October 5th, Lu took a team to the Forbidden City. This time, their task is very simple, that is, to drive away one person, that person is the abdicated Emperor Puyi.

Puyi didn't realize that she would soon become a homeless person. At 9 o'clock in the morning, Puyi had breakfast. He was full of wine and rice, so he picked up an apple. While eating apples, he enjoyed a happy time chatting with Wanrong in Palace of Gathered Elegance.

The two were chatting excitedly when the Minister of the Interior stumbled into the room with an official document and saw Puyi's face anxious. Puyi was about to reprimand him seriously. When he saw the official document, he was so scared that the apple in his hand fell to the ground. The original content of the official document is a notice to let Puyi leave the Forbidden City immediately.

Half a year after Puyi was driven away, Mr. Chen, a researcher and photographer at China Modern Palace Museum, was invited to take some important photos with his camera. When he walked into Palace of Gathered Elegance, he accidentally found an apple abandoned and bitten by Puyi. This immediately inspired him, so he put the apple on the table and took a picture of Zhang Zhengui.

From this apple, you can imagine Puyi's panic at that time.

I checked the information carefully, but I didn't find this picture of a withered apple, but I found a very interesting anecdote. In the court of the Qing dynasty, there were constant tributes to vegetables and fruits from all over the country. At that time, after Puyi abdicated, the tribute system was abolished, and there was only one source and channel for apples in the small court, that is, the ministers of Puyi School, who spent money to buy them in the Northeast. This kind of apple produced in the northeast is not only red and pleasing to the eye, but also sweet and crisp.

This bitten apple still exists after half a year, which shows two problems: one is that the quality of apples in Northeast China is really good. Secondly, Palace of Gathered Elegance is warm in winter and cool in summer, which is very suitable for people to live in.

Most people don't think that an ordinary apple, whose fate is so similar to that of the Qing Dynasty, was abandoned by the god of fate and rolled into the dust of history, and has since become a foundling. From vitality to dryness and decay, the Qing dynasty, like this withered apple, vanished into nothing and became a cold text embellishing the vast and long scroll of history.

It is said that the photos taken by Mr. Chen in those years are still preserved decades later. From this lonely apple, people can also see the luxury of Puyi's life at that time. Even if he becomes a grandson, he will go all the way to the northeast to buy apples. He always felt that he was the "long live grandfather" who bullied himself. On the day he left the palace, he may have experienced a different taste!
