The last emperor Puyi was invited by Du Yuming to visit the Forbidden City. What joke happened?

What the last emperor Puyi caused after entering the Forbidden City was only considered a joke in the minds of people at the time. But if he could be laughed at by others in his "own home", it must be a desolate feeling, and sadness comes from it. .

In 1924, Puyi, who was only 19 years old, was driven out of the Forbidden City by Feng Yuxiang. He suffered many hardships and experienced many things along the way from the Northeast to Japan and then to the Soviet Union. In 1960, Puyi, who had gone through 15 years of labor reform, was chatting with a friend, and was provoked by his friend to invite him to visit the Forbidden City together, not caring whether he would be moved by the scene or miss his hometown. 37 years later, Puyi and his friends came to the place where he was born and raised. But when Puyi was about to step in, he was told that he had to buy tickets. After hearing this, Puyi was stunned and thought, should he buy tickets when he goes back to his home? Puyi's friends who saw this scene quickly comforted him, saying that it was used by the country to repair the Forbidden City, but Puyi remained silent.

After entering the Forbidden City, Puyi began to tell his friends what happened when he was in the palace, where he turned to the left and what he saw on the right. This place was his home that he could walk with his eyes closed. Along the way, Puyi heard the tour guide introducing the Forbidden City. Although there were some discrepancies in what the tour guide said, Puyi was afraid of being recognized, so he refused to correct him. When the tour guide introduced a vase, Puyi finally corrected him and said, "That's not a vase." "It's the emperor's chamber pot" immediately caught everyone's attention. When the tour guide was still arguing, Puyi said that it was indeed a vase, but when he was naughty, he peed in it and then put flowers in it. As he spoke, he even imitated the appearance of a eunuch, and everyone burst into laughter at this scene.

What Puyi caused when he entered the palace was no joke, and historical development and changes from old to new are so rapid that the past has become the past.
