In the chaotic and confusing world of events, often the players are blinded by their own perspective. What seems clear to later generations as right or wrong, historical figures at the time were always bound by their own positions, unable to see the truth, and frequently made wrong choices. This is the tragedy of those who lived in the transitional era of the Republic of China, the tragedy of Puyi, and also the tragedy of an era. The Guangxu Emperor was imprisoned on the island of Zhongtai, while the Empress Dowager Cixi installed a new heir to the throne. Adoption, deposing, and re-adoption—facing the dying feudal dynasty, the autocratic Empress Dowager was powerless to turn back the tide. Ascension, abdication, and restoration—amidst the, the last emperor of the Qing Dynasty, Puyi, found his wishes unfulfilled. Palaces, residences, prisons—once the Son of Heaven, the former emperor wandered and drifted under the sway of history. Emperors, war criminals, citizens—finally, the abdicated emperor of the Qing Dynasty became a self-reliant citizen of the Republic.
The Empress Dowager Cixi, who held absolute power and appointed relatives to key positions, in the final moments of the Guangxu Emperor, hastily chose Puyi as the successor to the Qing Dynasty, thrusting a three-year-old child onto the throne. What was the reason behind this decision? Puyi was the last emperor of the Qing Dynasty and also the last emperor of China's 2,000-year imperial system. As the last emperor, Puyi's life was full of ups and downs. For three years as an emperor, he was unprepared for the world. How did he spend those three years? Through multiple marriages and several periods of heartbreak, how did he endure this complex and mysterious emotional life?
Talking about the Qing Dynasty, the Last Emperor truly portrays the extraordinary life of an ordinary citizen.
