Chapter 370 Revolution of

Qin Shihuang: I may not be able to achieve this situation. This is not a matter of just one emperor. It is a bit late to change from the time of Emperor Guangxu, and there is no one available, and the degree of development with the West is still too great.

Zhu Yuanzhang: I have conquered the world, but this situation is obviously not good. I cannot guarantee that I can bring back the Qing Dynasty.

Cheng Yaojin: It’s all Qianlong’s fault. For the sake of power ambition, our country has suffered such consequences. You are a historical sinner!

Zhang Fei: Yes! You're just a sinner. Look at the wars on these projections. It's all because of you, ****

……

Zhang Yanxi looked at everyone's insults against Qianlong, and really wanted to say, if you insult him well, it will be Qianlong's fault.

"Because of the death of Emperor Guangxu, of course Empress Dowager Cixi still had to choose a puppet emperor. Aisin Gioro Puyi, the last emperor of the Qing Dynasty, was also known as Emperor Xuantong, the deposed emperor of the Qing Dynasty!"

"Puyi was designated as the successor by the Empress Dowager Cixi, and he ascended the throne of emperor at the age of three."

"However, his career as emperor did not last long."

"As the last emperor, his life was even more tragic and desolate."

"In 1912, the Revolution of broke out and overthrew the rule of the Qing Dynasty. Puyi was forced to abdicate, but he still retained the title of emperor and temporarily lived in the Forbidden City."

"This outbreak is just like the peasant uprising. It should be said that it was expected."

"With so many wars, even ordinary people can see the gap between the two sides. Coupled with various unequal treaties, the court is still severely corrupt and the controls remain outdated."

"At this time, the people were very depressed, and the Qing Dynasty was already on the verge of collapse. The dynasty still wanted to control power and rule everything. The people's resentment was about to explode at this time."

"At the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century, the Qing Dynasty's economy encountered a serious crisis."

"Due to the internal and external political problems of the Qing government, political turmoil continued, which caused economic development to stagnate or even regress."

"In addition, the invasion and control of the Qing Dynasty by foreign powers led to the loss of a large amount of wealth and weakened the country's economic strength."

"Under such circumstances, the traditional agricultural economy and handicraft economy could no longer meet the needs of social and economic development, but the Western Industrial Revolution began to affect the Qing Dynasty."

"Many Chinese intellectuals and businessmen have begun to pay attention to Western advanced technologies and economic systems, hoping to use them to promote China's modernization process."

"However, due to the Qing government's unequal foreign relations, the Qing Dynasty was unable to obtain equal trade opportunities and technological exchanges with Western countries, which exacerbated the country's economic crisis and backwardness."

"Even the constraints of traditional culture were an important background to the Revolution of 1911."

"During the Qing Dynasty, the influence of feudal thought and Confucian culture was very strong in the country and society, which led to a closed and conservative society."

"In addition, the existence of the imperial examination system makes the upper class of society pay more attention to cultural quality and ignore the solution of practical problems."

“Under this cultural background, intellectuals and scholars began to think about how to promote social change.”

"By studying advanced Western ideas and systems, they gradually formed a force to promote change."

"At the same time, some new cultural movements also emerged, criticizing and reflecting on traditional culture, providing a foundation for the ideological preparation and promotion of the Revolution of 1911."

"Intellectuals and scholars have also begun to realize the power of Western powers. They believe that in order to promote modernization, they must first learn from the West in politics, economy, culture and other aspects and promote changes."

"This trend of thought contributed to the Revolution of 1911."

"In 1908, the Empress Dowager Cixi passed away. The politics of the Qing Dynasty was unpredictable and the situation was turbulent." "In the same year, the Wuchang Shou Uprising broke out and some Hubei troops rebelled, but they were quickly suppressed."

“In 1909, Yuan Shikai presided over the formulation of political reform plans such as the Organic Law of the Congress for the President and Vice President, which attracted the attention and support of some progressive people.”

"After that, the reformers and revolutionaries took different actions."

"In August 1910, Huang Xing founded the Guangfuhui in Tokyo, the Cherry Blossom Country, with the aim of fighting to overthrow the rule of the Qing Dynasty and restore the dignity of the Chinese nation."

"The Liberation Association received response and support from patriots from all over the country and formed a nationwide anti-Qing democratic united front."

"You can hear what I said. At this time, the Qing Dynasty was full of anti-Qing sentiments, whether it was common people, students, or Western countries, it broke out in full force."

"On October 1911, 10, the Wuchang Uprising broke out, and various southern provinces responded one after another, and the Revolution of 10 broke out."

"The revolutionary army, under the leadership of Sun Yat-sen, overthrew the Qing Dynasty and established the Republic of China."

"Since then, revolutionary armies and patriots across the country have struggled endlessly and promoted profound changes in politics, economy, culture, education and other fields."

"This is the history of modern times. The battles with the West, the founding of the new country, and the development and reforms have led to our current society."

"Looking back, we are looking at Emperor Xuantong at that time."

"BJ in 1918, on the big stage where all kinds of characters performed to their heart's content, there was a little child who was often ignored."

"He often rides his bicycle around the huge courtyard with the sawed-off threshold. He is Puyi, the deposed emperor of the Qing Dynasty who was hiding in the Forbidden City."

"Pu Yi is indeed a unique person."

"He is not only the last emperor of the last feudal dynasty of the Flower Planting Kingdom, but he is also the only person who has been an "emperor" three times."

"The first time was the Revolution of 1917, and the second time Puyi became emperor was the "Zhang Xun Restoration" in .

"At that time, Zhang Xun led the "braided soldiers" into Beijing city aggressively, clamoring everywhere to "return the great power."

At that time, the streets were full of people shouting "The Qing Dynasty has been restored", and old and young people from the former Qing Dynasty wearing Qing Dynasty robes and jackets were walking struttingly on the street, dragging their braids that had disappeared for several years behind their heads. They rushed there without losing the opportunity. Made to order in the shop. The once deserted Forbidden City suddenly became lively. "

"In the heart of the little emperor, there is no doubt that he is looking forward to the success of the restoration."

"Of course it worked."

"Pu Yi, who was only 12 years old, sat on the dragon throne again, granted ministers a great deal, granted Li Yuanhong the title of first-class Duke, appointed Zhang Xun, Wang Shizhen, Chen Baochen, Liang Dunyan, etc. as cabinet ministers, etc."

"But the good times didn't last long. On July 3rd, Duan Qirui sent troops to attack him. On the 12th, Zhang Xun fled into the Dutch Embassy. The next day, Puyi announced his abdication for the second time. He only sat on the Dragon Chair for eleven days and then stepped down."

"On November 1924, 11, Feng Yuxiang sent Lu Zhonglin and his troops into the Forbidden City to force Puyi to leave the palace. This was called the "forcing incident" in history. Puyi moved into Beifeng, where Zaifeng lived, and then fled into Sakura Embassy of the country.”

"After Puyi was forced into the palace, major newspapers in Sakura Country published articles sympathetic to Puyi. Soon, people were sent to escort Puyi to Tianjin."
