China's last imperial concubine, Puyi, was imprisoned, and she waited for ten years.

Recently, with the popularity of the TV series The Legend of the Last Emperor, the story about Puyi and the people around him has become a hot topic for many people. In this TV series, the emotional drama between Puyi and "Fu Guiren" Li is one of the hot spots in the whole TV series. In fact, in real history, the emotional ups and downs of these two people are even worse than those in the play. Li Zu was born in Jimo. In today's Discovery of Qingdao, let's tell the story of her and Puyi.

Her ancestors ventured to the northeast.

There are different opinions about Li Zuji in the history circle, and it was not until ten years ago that a conclusion was reached.

According to the article "Jimo people, the last imperial concubine" written by Liu Xiangyu of China Local Records Steering Group Office, the breakthrough of this problem was in 2004. At that time, Fu Ruimin and others published an article in the second issue of Jimo Ancient and Modern sponsored by jimo city, and verified that Li Zu was from Jimo County, Shandong Province.

After the second revision of China local chronicles, hard textual research began. When collecting historical materials, the editor of jimo city Local Records found the written materials provided by Zhang Fanggang, a retired worker: Li, a "blessed man" of the Manchu emperor, claimed that his hometown was Jimo County, Laizhou City, Shandong Province. Since then, Jimo people fully realized the historical value of this passage and went to Changchun where Li worked before his death. After many efforts, they obtained more than 300,000 words of precious materials and more than 30 precious pictures. Through the study of these materials, Li's ancestral home has finally been verified.

According to Li, his great-grandfather was a farmer in Jimo County, Laizhou City, Shandong Province, who lived on cultivated land for generations. "I don't know whether it was Tongzhi years or Guangxu years. A catastrophe fell from the sky and cut off my great-grandfather's house. I picked the burden and led my brother to the northeast. " Li's parents are poor farmers, and his father is very kind to others. He is called "Li Lao" locally, and Li can take root in the northeast, which is related to his father. Li once said that his family life was still very difficult until his father was in his teens. "He couldn't even put on a pair of covered trousers, so he bought several barrels of rice with the landlord's old money." . However, his father was "honest, obedient, willing and hardworking", so he was gradually favored by his boss during his apprenticeship in the city.

1928, Li was born. "As the sixth child of my parents, I have grown to six or seven years old. My dad took my mother and children to the city and separated. "

Legendary stills of the last emperor Li

Puyi looked at the photo and chose hers.

Puyi was chosen as a nobleman, which completely surprised Li. 15 years old, studying in Nanjing Women's Elite School of Puppet Manchukuo. According to Li, the last imperial concubine, one day, Japanese headmaster Kobayashi took a female teacher Fujii to select students in each class. Choose three or four students from 60 students in each class, provided that she studies well, looks good and performs well in all aspects. I chose to get together and went to a relatively large Japanese photo studio. Everyone took some four-inch photos. It is said that there are hundreds of photographers. She didn't know that this was a prelude for Puyi to choose his wife, and her photos were later taken by Puyi.

Being selected by Li immediately caused an uproar in China. Honest parents feel that they are poor and unworthy of the royal family, so they are afraid. The whole family can't make up their minds. The Japanese are very tough. "The emperor ordered that good students choose to study in the palace, and the emperor who studies well likes to choose to be a concubine." At that time, Li thought that he could change the fate of his family through learning, so he agreed to the Japanese request.

Li still remembers the first meeting with Puyi. After many years, I can still see the hazy feelings of two people. "Upstairs, two empty seats led me to a room. We sat around the round table in the middle of the sofa. After a while, a man came in. He was the man I saw on the stairs. He has a wide shoulder and a thin waist, wears glasses and dark green wool clothes. He is neither a military uniform nor a Concorde uniform. At the same time, he wore two bronze flowers on his collar. His clothes fit well and are friendly. He seems to be under thirty. " After the salute, Puyi and Li played a joke. There was a portrait of Puyi hanging in the room at that time. "He asked me if my painting was good. I boldly looked at Puyi and said, "Not so good, I don't like it." He laughed it off. After laughing, my second brother and I exchanged glances, and both of them smiled again. Looking back, he said to me:' Yes, you are right. Not very similar. Later, I asked him why he laughed so hard. He said who dares to stare at Puyi like this, who dares to flatter him like this, and who dares to make the old man angry. So he fell in love with me as soon as he saw me, that is to say, he thought I was straightforward, not hypocritical or flattering. Then he asked me if I had eaten and prepared a meal for me. I also asked about my family and where to study.

After Li entered the palace for more than a month, Puyi chose a good day and gave her a title. Puyi said: "If you are blessed, you are called a blessed person. You can use your blessing to overcome any misfortune in the future. " Three years later, Li and Puyi lived together. Puyi prefers Li. Many people recall that Puyi was always sad because he was a puppet emperor, but after Li came out, Puyi looked much better and talked to everyone more. Li recalled that at that time, she sympathized with Puyi, raised a dozen chickens to pass the time, and gave Puyi eggs. She also learned to cook, and she had a good impression on Puyi. "In the past, the small garlic in the yard was taken out as a leek bag in jiaozi."

However, at that time, it was not a peaceful era. Puyi is a puppet of the Japanese, which is none of his business. Many times I have to spend it alone, which is the pain suffered by the harem in the past dynasties. Li himself said, "I lived in the Puppet Manchuria Palace for two and a half years. Everyone I meet can only see a doctor except Puyi. I've seen Yoshioka and water. Besides, I didn't see anyone. His second, third and fifth sisters don't often come, but the family members of the students in the Forbidden City, his wet nurse Wang and the maid often come. In two and a half years, we have only seen 20 people. " Until August 1945, before the collapse of Manchukuo, Li was "circled" in the narrow world of the palace of Manchukuo. Most of his activities are confined to the east of Tongde Hall, and the maximum range of activities cannot exceed the palace. It is not easy to meet parents and relatives. In these three years of court life, she has never even stepped out of the threshold of a fake palace.

They filed for divorce and cried all night.

1945, Japan was defeated, the puppet Manchukuo disintegrated, and Puyi fled in haste. Before he left, he said to Li, "The train will take you to Japan in a day or two." I haven't heard from you since.

Li, 20, returned to his home in Changchun alone, waiting for Puyi's return. In view of the political climate at that time, Li's living conditions can be imagined. Wang Qingxiang, an expert on Fu Yi's research, introduced in the book A Complete Record of Fu Yi's Transformation: "A husband whose life and death are unknown, accompanied by unemployment, various social pressures and numerous real life problems, makes her unable to escape. Most of her relatives and friends in Changchun were born and raised in Northeast China. During the Manchukuo period, they were persecuted to varying degrees. They think Puyi is a coward, and they all oppose Li and other Puyi. Someone said, "When the traitors were suppressed, the dead were also locked up. Kant is a great traitor. He is still in the Soviet Union and will die sooner or later. "Some people say," If you don't divorce, it will be a traitor's family and you will never find a job. "

In this way, Li waited for ten years, and hope appeared. /kloc-in the summer of 0/955, my sister-in-law sent a very ordinary letter she had just received to Li, who was staying at her cousin's house temporarily, and whispered to her, "A letter from Kant." She froze. In fact, Pu Yi always remembers Li. When the Soviet Union detained him, he was told that Li had remarried, but Puyi didn't believe it. After returning home, after a long investigation, the staff of Fushun War Criminals Management Office knew that Li had been waiting for Puyi and told him the good news. According to the caretaker, after Puyi wrote a letter to Li at night, she always tossed and turned and couldn't sleep. He is afraid that his wife will not pay attention to him. At the beginning of the letter, he called the former well-wisher "Dear Qin Yu".

Ten days later, the "rich man" and the "last emperor" met in Fushun War Criminals Management Office. At that time, Puyi was already a chubby little old man with silver hair; And Li became beautiful young women. According to Li, the instructor who witnessed the meeting, when they shook hands tightly, both of them were very excited and looked at each other for a long time, but no one spoke for a long time.

After that, Li and Li went to Fushun Puyi for three times, with frequent contacts, but the relationship was cracked. This crack is the diaphragm between two people. Puyi went to prison and lived a comfortable life since childhood. It's hard to understand his wife's hardships outside the prison. Li Ran looked for a job everywhere, but Puyi didn't help. After Li found a job, his relationship with Puyi became a topic of discussion. It is said that such a thing happened at that time: Li saw the photo of Premier Zhou shaving his head and riding a horse in the revolutionary era, and said without thinking, "Look, Premier Zhou is still bald!" " Unexpectedly, this became the fuse, and the unit held a meeting to criticize her. The female colleague said that she "shows off her ugly history of being a queen, which is a mistake of feudal thought and a contempt for proletarian leaders." To put it bluntly, that's because she has a suspicious husband detained! Intellectually speaking, it is time to end this shameful marriage.

1956 65438+On February 25th, Li went to Fushun for the fourth time, and this time she filed for divorce with Puyi. This requirement is a great blow to Puyi. After all, Li is his greatest emotional sustenance outside the prison. At that time, Fushun War Crimes Bureau also felt that something was wrong, so it tried to persuade Li, Li and Li to waver. In order to save this marriage, the authorities specially arranged for Puyi and Li to spend a wonderful night in Fushun War Criminals Management Office, which was a great event in the history of new China prison. They stayed alone all night, Puyi kept crying, and Li was also crying. They deeply felt the pain of divorce caused by non-emotional reasons, but the outcome was inevitable.

On May 20th, 1957, our hospital finally agreed to Li's divorce request. After the divorce, Li married Huang Yugeng, then a staff member of Changchun Radio Station, and re-established a happy family. In Pu Yi's memoir "The Complete Works of Pu Yi's Reconstruction", Li seems to rarely mention it because he deliberately avoided it.

Speaking of Li, we can't help talking about another important person, that is graceful and restrained. The queen is beautiful and intelligent, but she also has her own shortcomings. The miserable life in the palace made her unwilling to take drugs, and eventually she died in prison.

Wanrong's tragic story is the subject of many film and television programs, so I won't say much. Next, let's talk about Wan Rong's teacher Chen Senshou. This old scholar is a loyal minister of the Qing Dynasty, an outcast of the times, a famous scholar and a rare collector. He came to Qingdao many times in his life, leaving many Mo Bao behind.

His ancestors were "a generation of scholars" in the Qing Dynasty.

When it comes to Chen Senshou, we can't help but talk about his family background. There is a word called "scholarly family" in the idiom, which reflects the unique family tradition in China from one angle. The middle class, mainly studying agriculture, will be handed down from generation to generation forever, which will produce countless cultural families. It is common for ancestors to learn to be good officials, and later generations have also inherited this tradition. Chen Senshou's family is typical of this.

Chen Cengshou's great-grandfather was named Chen Kun, and his father was just a small magistrate, but he managed to supervise the proposal of Sichuan Road. Chen's growth actually started from him. Chen Kun was promoted to number one in the 18th year of Jiaqing, and in the 24th year. His writing is vigorous and profound, so is his pen. He is a professor at Hanlin College. Qing Daoguang served as an examiner in Guangdong Province for two years, the following year.

Chen Lingguan did a good job and the article was well written. He was one of the seven great fu writers in Qing Dynasty, and was called "a generation of literati" by Wei Yuan. There are many stories about him. There is a story on our website: During the Jiaqing period of the Qing Dynasty, Chen Ling went to Huangzhou to take the rural examination and selected a candidate, which became famous in one fell swoop. Go to Gamba River. Unfortunately, as soon as the ferry left the coast, it was crowded with scholars from different towns. Chen Yan begged the ferryman to let him return to the shore smoothly and cross the river with him. Seeing the ferryman standing on the shore, he said happily, "Xianggong, it must be very literary to catch the exam." If you can write a seven-character quatrain with ten "ones", the old lady will immediately turn around and cross you to the other side. If not, please wait patiently. When you are old, send the talents on board to Huangzhou, go ashore and drink two or three glasses of old wine, and pick you up slowly. Chen Kun stamped his foot and said, "Xiao Sheng told Xian Weng to bring the boat back first so that I could write poetry." . Xian Weng heard clearly and pointed out the maze. The old ferryman must smile: "All right." "Then he put the boat back to the shore. Chen Ling is one foot wide. At this time, there happened to be a fishing boat passing through the middle of the river. I saw a fisherman sitting in the bow, with a fishing rod beside him, rowing with his hands, leaning back, enjoying himself and singing a fishing song happily. Chen Lin looked around and saw Rulu's eyes rippling with the water waves. Chen Kun had a brainwave and immediately sang loudly, "A sail, an oar, a boat, a fish and a hook. "Laugh, a bright moon and autumn colors!" In this short poem, the number 10' one' is used continuously, which is very appropriate and subtle. The ferry and the boat full of scholars applauded and happily gave up their seats for Chen Yan to sit down.

There is another story about Chen Hao's agility. In the 24th year of Jiaqing, Chenling Middle School won the first prize and was awarded the calligraphy prize by the Hanlin Academy. On one occasion, Emperor Jiaqing asked Chen Hao how many words he knew. He replied, "I can't read very well. My handwriting is very good. " The answer is beautiful, humble to the emperor and positive to yourself. Both sides have considered it.

It is worth mentioning that Chen Kun and Wei Yuan are close friends, which also reflects that this person is more open-minded.

He works as a teacher in Wanrong.

As the great-grandson of Chen Kun, Chen Shenshou has two obvious characteristics, one is good at writing, and the other is loyal to the Qing Dynasty.

Chen Senshou is from Qiushui, Hubei. The word "Ren" is called Cangqiu, also known as Cangqiu, Naiji, Fuzhi and Teaching Plan. His research comes from family research and is naturally excellent. Let's introduce it in detail below. Let's talk about his foolish loyalty to the Qing Dynasty.

Chen Shenshou's loyalty to the Qing Dynasty was manifested in many aspects. First of all, it is an official, that is, it is not an official of the Republic of China, but it is still called the title of the Qing Dynasty. According to Wang Guiyun, one of the top ten bibliophiles in Qingdao and former deputy director of Qingdao Museum, after the Revolution of 1911, Yuan Shikai awarded Chen Shoushou the position of academic consultant, but Chen Shoushou insisted on resigning. Not only that, he also banned his family from going to school and only allowed him to read the "Four Books". His paintings and calligraphy still use the title of "Xuan Tong", and his family members are not allowed to say "Qian Qing" or "Manchu", but only "Ben Chao". There are many taboos in his family, and his loyalty can be seen.

In specific actions, Chen Senshou also showed great help. 19 1 1 year later, Chen Zengshou first lived in Hangzhou and then moved to Shanghai to restore the Qing Dynasty. In fact, he often went to Qingdao and Tianjin, where the old people of the Qing Dynasty gathered. When Zhang Xun led the army to Beijing, Liu, Chen Tiaozhong and Liu Tiaozhong were responsible for acting as the advance team, constantly transmitting the restoration information to the restorers in Shanghai. 1965438+In mid-June, 2007, he, Zhang Xun and his cronies Hu and Wan Shengqi repaired Ding Temple. At that time, Liu, You, Chen and others stayed in Tianjin. After Hu Siyuan and Zhang Xun entered Beijing, they wrote to him many times to inform him of the progress of the recovery, which is an important secret document in the history of the recovery. July 1, Chen Shoushou, Liu, Hu Siyao, Zhang Gong, etc. They all followed Zhang Xun into the palace and advised Puyi to reset. The imperial edict of Puyi was drafted by Chen Senshou. No wonder Teacher Wang Guiyun commented on him like this: "When Ding Si recovered, it was the hardest work."

Before the restoration of Chen Cengshou, there was a close relationship with Liu, a local official. As soon as he arrived in Qingdao, he constantly exchanged calligraphy skills and wrote poems for Liu. After the restoration failed, Chen Cengshou also went to Qingdao, where he wrote a poem "My First Half Life", which contained Chen Cengshou's paintings and poems.

Because of this "foolish loyalty" and excellent articles, after the failure of restoration, Chen Shenshou was once again favored by Puyi. It is said that Puyi once asked Chen to find a master of Chinese studies for Wan Rong, who was insane. Chen immediately recommended Chen Censhou, saying that there was a couplet on his door: "The Arctic court remains unchanged, and bandits dare not go out of the Western Hills." It can be seen that his heart is the same as Wen Tianxiang's, and Wen Tianxiang said, "My heart is a needle stone, and I won't stand if I don't swear". Puyi asked what he was thankful for, so he asked Chen Shenshou to be a Confucian scholar in China.

According to Liu Degui's Collection of Imperial Examinations, Chen Shenshou's teaching is helpful to cultivate a beautiful mind. After taking office, he gave lectures to Wan Rong every afternoon. One day, Wanrong said, "Master Chen, I can't read the words in this book clearly." Chen Shenshou thought for a moment and said, "Then find someone to copy it for the queen. My son-in-law Zhou Shijun has nothing to do, so let him copy this book. " Therefore, Wan Rong's books are all copied by Zhou Shijun, and every word is in lowercase the size of a walnut. Bibliographic articles are circled by Chen Shenshou. Wanrong has really changed a lot and is much quieter. She learned from Chen Senshou's article that in China, for thousands of years, the queen lived in the palace according to the rules and regulations. Even people with outstanding talents and vulgar virtues have never left the palace. A queen is a queen. Her nobility lies in her ability to restrain her personal desires and do good things for the country and the people.

After the September 18th Incident, Puyi went to the Northeast. 193 1 year165438+1On October 27th, Chen Cengshou accompanied Wan Rong and his party to board the ship Changshan Maru bound for Dalian. In addition to the personable entourage, there is also a "Japanese" disguised as a man. This is Ji Zi Chuan Dao. The next day, the ship arrived at Dalian dock. Later, Wanrong lived in the villa at Wenhua Station and soon went to Lushun.

Help puyi fight for power and profit, and offend the Japanese.

After the founding of Manchukuo, Chen Senshou continued to serve in it, but for a short time, because he angered the Japanese.

During this period, Puyi was both excited and helpless. What is exciting is that he seems to have seized an opportunity to "revive the Qing Dynasty", but it is a pity that he is a puppet of the Japanese and is subject to control everywhere. According to Zhou Shijun, one night, Chen Shoushou's son-in-law, Puyi, summoned Chen Shoushou and asked him to "feel the pulse" for Wanrong. After the medicine was prescribed, Puyi called Chen Shenshou into the bedroom, moved two chairs and sat down by himself. He waved Chen Senshou to sit side by side with him. Puyi said with infinite courage: "I have three vows now: First, I want to change all my shortcomings in the past." More than ten years ago, Chen called me lazy and frivolous, and I vowed never to do this again. Second, I will work hard, do my duty, swear to restore my ancestral business, persevere and never stop until I reach my goal. Third, it fell from the sky and inherited the legacy of the Qing Dynasty. When these three wishes come true, I will die. Puyi told these words to Chen Senshou out of trust, hoping to get Chen's help.

Chen Shou helped him fight for power according to Puyi's thought. According to Puyi's original intention, he proposed the Twelve Orthodoxies in an attempt to expand the power of the royal family, but this is purely academic talk. Negotiating with the Japanese is tantamount to getting the eggs from the tiger's skin. Later, Zheng did not take out the twelve main entrance to negotiate with the Japanese. Although Chen Senshou fought side by side with Puyi and made every effort, he was eventually abandoned. Because Chen Cengshou had refused to accept Japanese officials sent to the Guards and opposed the Japanese cutting down trees in Fuling and Zhaoling managed by the Guards, he had no place in the Puppet Manchukuo and eventually left shortly after the 1937 July 7th Incident.

After leaving Manchukuo, Chen Shenshou first moved to Beijing and then moved to Shanghai. 1949,1September, a generation of poet Chen Shenshou died at the southwest road apartment in Haima, Shanghai, at the age of 72. Three days before he died, he wrote a vigorous slogan of "Huanxisha": "zakat has been given for many years, and spring has been ill for a long time, so Meiyu stayed for a long time; Sweet, ducks sleep, small windows lean on morning glory, and flowers stay cool in autumn. " Perhaps at the last moment of his life, this great scholar, known as "three brothers and sisters in the sea", was still thinking about his female disciple Wan Rong. As we all know, Wanrong died in prison in the past three years.
