Last week, I read a book. The name of the book was In Front of My Life. The writer was by Pu Yi.
Maybe someone doesn’t know who Pu Yi is. Let me tell you . Pu Yi was the last emperor of the Qing Dynasty in China. The book who was an autobiography and was finished when he was in jail.
Pu Yi was born in 1906. When he was about 3 years old (1908), he ascended to the throne. When Pu Yi sat on the throne he received all the ministers congrarulations. Pu Yi cried and yelled loudly:"I don't want to stay here. I must go home !"
His father comforted him, "Ok, this will be finished soon!" When his father stopped talking, all the ministers laughed because in the old system of China, the word "FINISH" represented that all the things were over. In other words, the Kingdom of China would end.
About 3 years after, Pu Yi gave up his throne. But he continued be the emperor in the Forbidden City. When he was 17 years old(1922), he didn't choose his marriage partner. He had to marry two girls. One was named Wan Rong and the other one was called Wen Xiu.
Wan Rong was the last empress and Wen Xiu was a concubine. At that time, they one became an empress and the other one who became a concubine, thought that they were very fortunate. But who would know that the nightmare was beginning for them.
Two years later,(11-5-1924--4:00pm) Pu Yi and his wives were banished from the Forbidden City. At that moment, the 300 years Qing Dynasty concluded. The last feudal society of China was over.
Pui Yi and his wives came under Japanese control. Their marriage had a huge change. Wen Xiu couldn't endure the pressure, so she divorced Pu Yi. She was the fist women to divorce an emperor. Wan Rong smoked opium very much and she even committed adultery with another man. In this situation, Pu Yi coudn't prevent anything from happening and he couldn't make any choices.
In 1945, when Japan capitulated, Pu Yi was put under house arrest. He became a captive of the Soviet Union. After 5 years, he was send to Peoples Republic of China and put into jail. When he was in the jail, he didn't know how to dress himself or even brush his teeth.
In1959, he was released and became a normal citizen. When he was writing this book, he sighed about his fate and hated himself. But the history can’t change.
In 1962, he married a women named Li Shu Xian. This was his last marriage. It only lasted five years, because Pu Yi had a disease of cancer. When he was 61 years old, he left this world.
I sympathize with Pu Yi and I rejoice that I was born in this time. History can’t change, but we can change our fate.
I hope, I wish, and I believe!
