Puyi is a very dramatic figure. As the last emperor of the Qing Dynasty, Puyi's life was bumpy and tortuous.
Puyi's family relationship is extremely complicated. Emperor Guangxu is his uncle, and his father Zai Feng is his half-brother. Cixi is his grandmother's sister; Tongzhi Emperor Zai Chun is his uncle; Rong Lu is his grandfather.
Such a complicated relationship is like a spider web. It was this chaotic network that made Puyi, who was still a wet behind the ears, become the emperor in a muddle.
For Puyi's complicated family relationship spectrum, some people may ask: Are Kangxi and Puyi related by blood?
Below, we might as well take a closer look.
0 1 Puyi is the great-grandson of Kangxi. Whether there is a blood relationship has to be pushed up.
The Qing Dynasty was founded by Manchu nobles (Ai Xinjue Roche) and was the last feudal dynasty in China.
It has been 276 years since Huang Taiji changed his country name to Qing Dynasty. From the last emperor of the Qing Dynasty, Puyi? Forced? After abdication, the Qing dynasty was dying.
There were 12 emperors around the Qing Dynasty. See the figure below:

As a descendant of Kangxi, Puyi also experienced several emperors, that is, its ancestors:
1673, Kangxi married Wu Yashi and gave birth to Yongzheng five years later; 1705, Yongzheng married Niu zhilu and gave birth to Qianlong; 1745, Qianlong married Wei Jiashi and gave birth to Jiaqing; 1775, Jiaqing married Sitara and gave birth to Daoguang; 1835, Daoguang married Wu Yashi and gave birth to Yi Xuan; Yi Xuan married Liu Jia and gave birth to Zai Feng; Zai Feng married Guarga and gave birth to Puyi. Judging from this relationship, if there were no moths, who would wear them on their heads? Green? In other words, Puyi and Kangxi are definitely related by blood.
It's a pity that there is such a record in unofficial history that Gan Long's life story is rather vague and has been circulated among the people.
Whose son is Gan Long?
About his life experience, it is widely said that he is Chen's son.
It is said that before Yongzheng became emperor, he had a good life with the Chen family in Haining and often walked around.
Coincidentally, one year, their wives gave birth to their children on the same day or even at the same time.
As if it were arranged by heaven, Yongzheng was very happy, so Chen Jia took his children into the palace to celebrate.

After the celebration of Daqing, when the Chen family took their children home, they found that their chubby son had become a girl.
The Chen family was greatly surprised, but dared not say anything, because they knew that this was extraordinary and might bring decapitation to themselves and their families and ruin them.
So, he kept this secret, and the big fat son who was replaced became the fourth son of Yongzheng.

If this is true, then Puyi and Kangxi are not related by blood.
But this statement can only be seen in unofficial history. After all, its authenticity cannot be verified.
03 The lineages of Kangxi and Puyi
China's throne since ancient times is almost hereditary and hereditary, except Xia Dynasty, where the system is not perfect. Father dies and son follows? And then what? Brothers and sisters? Wait a minute.
And such an operation is nothing more than not letting? Fat water doesn't flow to outsiders? .
During the Qing dynasty, although the Qing emperor issued many bans, such as prohibiting the marriage between Manchu and Han, in order to maintain the old customs of Manchuria and avoid the confusion of their own ancestry.
However, the policies of the feudal dynasty failed to stop the rolling trend of the times. It is also the great ethnic integration that makes Manchu descent no longer pure. Among the 12 emperors in Qing Dynasty, except for the Manchu lineage of Taizu Nurhachi and Taizong Taiji before they entered the customs, the rest have been integrated into the Han nationality (Eight Banners Han Army) and Mongolian lineage.
/kloc-among the 0/2 emperors, 7 are descendants of Manchu, including Puyi. And Kangxi, Han descent accounted for more than half.
How did Puyi succeed to the throne in the late Qing Dynasty? Those unknown things
As we all know, it gradually declined in the late Qing Dynasty. However, as long as the dynasty still exists, an emperor is needed after all.
(stills of film and television works)
Moreover, since ancient times, choosing a prince is basically not afraid of no one, because three thousand beautiful women in the emperor's harem can always have a son. For example, Kangxi alone had more than 30 sons. At that time, in order to choose the most satisfactory one, he spared no effort.
However, everything was unexpected. When Xianfeng was emperor, he had only one son. No one is arguing or robbing, so it's natural for him to be gay? A son inherits his father? , when the emperor.
Tongzhi became emperor at the age of 6, because Xianfeng died early, 3 1 year (reign time 1 1 year).
But the Tongzhi emperor was also a short-lived emperor, shorter than his father's life, and died at the age of 19.
As for the cause of his death, there are rumors that he died of smallpox and there are rumors that he died of syphilis. In a word, he didn't leave half a son to the Qing Dynasty.
This brings a very difficult problem:
Who will be chosen to succeed to the throne? Who will decide?
According to the regulations of ancestors, if the emperor has no heir, he will become the heir who has the closest blood relationship with him.
As the mother of Tongzhi, Cixi is a person who regards power as extremely important. Of course, she didn't leave the right to choose people in others' hands.
Finally, she transformed her nephew? Admit it? He married his son and made him emperor. This is Emperor Guangxu.
Since then, Cixi began? Listen to politics? .
Cixi is a vicious person with a slippery head. A woman's house, for what? Dictatorship? Ever since the invention of history? Innovative actions, listening to politics? .
In order not to let the ministers have too big opinions and make a scene, they also specially put up a curtain to pretend.
Unexpectedly, this curtain has been hung for 48 years, which makes people feel very emotional!
Finally, until her later years, Cixi, who brought disaster to the country and people, did not let Guangxu die before herself.
However, Guangxu had no son. Cixi did not expect that Guangxu's front foot had just stepped on it, and his back foot followed, and it was dying.
Before she died, Cixi made Pu Yi, the grandson of her sister, as her heir, undoubtedly in order to prevent her imperial power of Yehenara from falling into the hands of others.
Soon, a few days later, Puyi became emperor, when he was only 3 years old.
From then on, there was Pu Yi's back? Legend? And a rough life!
