Even in this short three-year imperial career, Puyi was a puppet emperor. Because he was too young, he just sat symbolically in the emperor's chair, and his father Zai Feng and his ministers handled everything. Later, in the Puppet Manchukuo, he was supported by the Japanese. The emperor? Actually, he is also a puppet.
In a word, Puyi couldn't make her own decisions when she was alive.
So where was Puyi buried after her death? Is he really buried in the imperial tomb as people say? At that time, the Qing dynasty had been extinct for more than half a century. How could he be buried in the imperial tomb?
According to the system of feudal emperors, as long as they were once emperors, they could enter the imperial tomb after death.
In fact, from the first day of Puyi's accession to the throne, the Qing court began to choose a mausoleum for him. However, at that time, the Qing Dynasty was at the end of the road, and it was in the midst of internal troubles and foreign invasion. So, Puyi's? Jidi? The site selection has been postponed.
Time is up 19 16. Although Puyi has abdicated for several years, she still lives in the Forbidden City and enjoys an annual subsidy of 4 million silver dollars from the government of the Republic of China. The old man of the Qing Dynasty, who was idle all day, set out to choose Puyi, who was 10 years old. Jidi? .
They invited Li Qing, the capital of Lianzhou, Guangdong Province, who is proficient in geomantic omen, to conduct a field survey in the mausoleum area of the Qing emperor in accordance with the ancestral hall system of the Qing court, and carefully selected the mausoleum site for Puyi.
This Li Qing was loyal to her duties and traveled all over the Qing Xiling Mausoleum, and finally chose the Fox Fairy Building near the Taidongling Mausoleum. There are not only the majestic and verdant Yongning Mountain in the north, but also the winding and clear Yishui in the south. Moreover, the pine trees stand upright and the cypresses are towering, which is an excellent place for feng shui.
The Qing royal family immediately banned this place and began to build a mausoleum. However, just one year after the project was launched, it was stopped because of the complicated situation at that time.
1924, Puyi was driven out of the Forbidden City by Feng Yuxiang. Since then, Puyi's choice of mausoleum has never been mentioned.
1967 10 6 17, Puyi died of kidney cancer in Beijing, and her body was cremated immediately.
On how to deal with Puyi's ashes, the leaders of New China gave Puyi great preferential treatment. It is clearly pointed out that respecting the opinions of family members can choose to be buried in the Revolutionary Cemetery or Wan 'an Cemetery. You can also be buried in your favorite cemetery according to your family's wishes.
Finally, Puyi's family unanimously decided to temporarily place Puyi's ashes in Babaoshan People's Ashes Hall.
1980 On May 29th, the government of China held a memorial service for Puyi, and then moved his ashes to Babaoshan Cemetery for burial.
We should know that Babaoshan Cemetery is the garden cemetery with the highest architectural specifications in China, and all the founding fathers who have made great contributions to the liberation and construction of new China are buried.
As a feudal emperor, Puyi not only lived a mediocre life, but also acted as a puppet of Manchukuo? The emperor? . However, because Puyi once exposed Japanese crimes at the Tokyo trial and made a contribution to history, and after all, he was the emperor, so he entered Babaoshan Cemetery.
So, is Puyi buried in Babaoshan Cemetery?
No, Puyi's last cemetery is in Hualong Royal Cemetery. What about this?
1992, Zhang Shiyi, an overseas businessman, decided to return to China to start a business. He took a fancy to a treasure trove of geomantic omen next to Qingxi Mausoleum in Yixian County, Hebei Province and decided to build a cemetery integrating burial, sightseeing, culture and education. This matter has received the attention of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. After the completion of the cemetery, he was an official of the Ministry of Civil Affairs and personally wrote the name for the cemetery? Hualong Royal Cemetery? .
In order to improve the visibility of the cemetery, Zhang Shiyi approached Puyi's wife Li to discuss the matter of moving Puyi's ashes into Hualong Royal Cemetery, and finally the two sides reached an agreement.
1995 65438+1On October 26th, Puyi's ashes were removed from Babaoshan Cemetery and reburied in Hualong Royal Cemetery after a short ceremony. It is far and near the Qing Xiling, but it is not a part of the Qing Xiling.
This is the ultimate attribution of Puyi. So he was not buried in the imperial tomb in the end, but next to the Qing Xiling mausoleum.
June 5438+October 2006 10, Wanrong's crown tomb was also completed by Zhang Shiyi, next to Puyi's tomb. 165438+ 10/3. When Wanrong was born, her clothes were buried here. Wanrong finally returned to Puyi's side many years after her death, and she and Puyi were able to stay together from then on.
