[The sexual life of Wanrong, the pseudo-empress of the Qing Dynasty]

page views:1 Publication date:2023-03-24

Wanrong, the last empress of the Qing Dynasty, lived with Puyi for two years after entering the palace. In 1924, due to General Feng Yuxiang's
coup attempt, Wanrong fled with Puyi to Tianjin, and later to Changchun in Northeast China. With the support of the Japanese,
she became a puppet empress, dying in Northeast China in 1946 at the age of 41.
During the Manchukuo period, Wanrong frequently
interacted with a servant surnamed Li, and they developed feelings for each other. To avoid suspicion, they rarely spoke face-to-face, mostly
exchanging messages through an old maid serving Wanrong.
This maid, surnamed Li, was very popular with Puyi and enjoyed his complete trust. After a long time, a servant
reported this scandalous affair to Puyi. Rumors circulated in the palace before and after this, but Puyi didn't quite believe them. Unexpectedly
, Wanrong was already several months pregnant; the truth could no longer be hidden, but Wanrong refused to reveal the father's child. It wasn't until
Wanrong and the servant surnamed Li secretly passed notes to each other, which were then quietly delivered to Puyi by a servant, that he believed it was true
. It turned out that although Wanrong and the servant surnamed Li rarely spoke to each other in person, whenever he entered Wanrong's
room, they would arrange meetings by passing notes.
According to Puyi, after receiving the note that Wanrong had read, he remained silent. That night,
when Wanrong was meeting her lover, she was caught red-handed by Puyi and his confidants, who had planned this in advance. Puyi felt humiliated. Afterwards, he quietly
dismissed the servant surnamed Li.
What to do with Wanrong? This was a real dilemma for Puyi. Enraged, Puyi proposed
a divorce. The Japanese Kwantung Army, upon learning of this, firmly disagreed. The Japanese, of course, had their own calculations
. It is said that Wanrong simply told Puyi, "Where has an emperor and empress divorced?" At the time, Wanrong's attitude was very
clear: she demanded that Puyi acknowledge the child as his after it was born; if that wasn't possible,
the child should be allowed to be secretly raised outside the palace. While saying this, Wanrong knelt beside Puyi for a long time,
unable to rise. Puyi completely disregarded Wanrong's wishes.
There are differing accounts regarding the child's birth. During the delivery, Wanrong had no doctor with her
. She was born with the help of a nanny. The child died immediately after birth. Puyi immediately
ordered the child to be thrown into the stove. According to my investigation
, two of Puyi's personal bodyguards had sexual relations with Wanrong during the Manchukuo period: one named Li Tiyu, and the other
Qi Jizhong. After discovering the affair, Puyi did not remain silent as some rumors suggested. Instead, he was
furious on the spot, threatening to execute them both. However, he secretly gave them a sum of money and sent them home. Li
Tiyu returned to Beijing and later worked at a traditional Chinese medicine hospital. After Puyi's amnesty, he had a chance encounter with Li near the Great Buddha Temple— not far from the hospital where Li Tiyu worked. Puyi not 　　only avoided a fight
with this "rival," but also visited him at the hospital afterward. Hearing that Li was struggling financially, Puyi even helped him out 　　—something Li Shuxian didn't know, but rather revealed by people at the hospital. According to my investigation at the hospital, 　　Li Tiyu was responsible for raising small animals used for experiments and was a conscientious old man. He 　　was well-liked at the hospital, often telling jokes, and people jokingly called him "Li the Iron-Tongued." Sometimes, he would show 　　people a photo of Empress Wanrong, reminiscing about the past with great emotion. However, no one knew the hidden story— 　　his romantic affair with Wanrong. 　　 In a nice bungalow near Jishuitan, I finally found and visited Li Tiyu's family. At that time, 　　he and his wife had passed away, but their children were doing well. Neighbors described Li Tiyu as a gentle old man with 　　a harmonious family and filial children. I learned that Li Tiyu was not affected by the Cultural Revolution 　　because people were largely unaware of his past. He lived a relatively peaceful life in his later years and passed away peacefully in the early 1970s. 　　His descendants gave me a photo of him and his wife in their youth. It's clear that Li Tiyu was a 　　dashing young man back then. As for Qi Jizhong, his ending was obviously less than ideal. 　　After receiving his severance pay from Puyi, he didn't return to his hometown for a peaceful life but instead went to North China to become a puppet soldier, committing atrocities and accumulating 　　blood debts. After Japan's surrender, Qi Jizhong was suppressed and became a wandering ghost. His romantic affair with the last empress 　　also faded away with the wind... 　　 Being "above ten thousand people" does not necessarily bring ten thousand people's happiness. Puyi was very bored in Tianjin. 　　 Later, his father accompanied Puyi to Changchun. Unexpectedly, his father witnessed Puyi's marital breakdown again there 　　. Wang Rubin said, "My father said that the regulations governing matters between men and women in the puppet Manchukuo palace were the same as those 　　in the imperial palaces of previous dynasties, with strict rules forbidding anyone 　　from crossing the line. However, the inner court was not as strict as the outside. Puyi sometimes slept with the Empress, and in the morning before he got up, he would summon his attendants to serve him. The Empress and other noble ladies would also sometimes summon 　　their attendants to attend to them. As a result, during this period, a scandal broke out in Puyi's inner court. My father always believed that the 　　main root of this tragedy was the evil feudal system, and Wanrong was merely a victim of it. My father 　　said that Wanrong was a woman with a certain level of education, but she lived a doll-like life for a long time under the shackles of feudalism 　　. It was inevitable that she longed for freedom and happiness, and for a normal life. But she did not 　　have the courage of Wenxiu to break through the feudal cage, and she was unwilling to abandon the honor of being Empress, which inevitably led to her 　　own ." The tragedy. At that time, based on feudal traditional concepts, the father hated the attendant 　　Li, who had an improper relationship with Wanrong, believing that he had disgraced the attendants and wanted to have him shot. Wu Zhuting said: "When Wang 　　Jianzhai mentioned this matter, he also mentioned that many film and television works differed from historical facts on this point. 　　Most film and television works showed that Puyi intentionally put the attendant to death, but in fact, the other attendants wanted to 　　shoot Li, not Puyi. As a result, Puyi stopped them from having this idea. Perhaps out of 　　pity for Li who had followed him for many years, he finally exiled him from the puppet Manchukuo Palace, while Wanrong was handcuffed and shackled 　　and imprisoned. When Wang Jianzhai passed by her room later, he could often hear 　　the sound of iron chains dragging on the floor from inside the room. It took a long time before they were removed." (Excerpt from Part 6 of "The Mystery of the Private Life of Chinese Emperors and Consorts")

In the Ming and Qing Dynasty section, Chapter 32, the complete breakdown of the relationship between Puyi and Wanrong occurred in 1935 when Wanrong
became pregnant after having an affair with one of Puyi's attendants. Puyi was reprimanded by his "Imperial Attendant," Yoshioka Yasushi, and Wanrong
was also severely beaten by Puyi. In her emotional emptiness, Wanrong sought refuge with her bodyguard, Li Tiyu. This incident
enraged Puyi, and after her illegitimate child was burned to death, she suffered a mental breakdown. However, Puyi still considered this an unforgivable
mistake by Wanrong and subsequently banished her to the cold palace.
