Eunuchs in the late Qing Dynasty were all poor and unlucky. They hoped to have enough food when they entered the palace and help their families live a good life. The Palace TV series "The Sky" of the Qing Dynasty describes the life of eunuchs in the late Qing Dynasty, in which Yu Shaoqun plays the first hero of the little eunuch, "wielding a knife from the palace", stepping into the court step by step and eventually becoming a celebrity in front of Empress Dowager Cixi.
The famous eunuchs are:
1, An Dehai, one of the famous eunuchs in the late Qing Dynasty, helped Empress Dowager Cixi reach the peak of power in the late Qing Dynasty and was deeply loved by Empress Dowager Cixi. Because she was too arrogant, she went out to search for people's ointment in the name of buying a wedding dress for Emperor Tongzhi, and was captured by Ding Baozhen, then governor of Shandong Province, and beheaded in Jinan.
2. Li, when it comes to Li, everyone knows it. The cause of death of the eunuchs in power during the Cixi period is still unknown.
Xiao was the last eunuch in China and the last eunuch who served Empress Dowager Cixi after Li's death. 19 12 after the demise of the Qing dynasty, Xiao was laid off. After being laid off, he lived a luxurious life. After the founding of New China, he participated in the socialist transformation and lived to 8 1 year.
Sun, as the last eunuch in China, you should know his fame. He was not only the last eunuch in Qing Dynasty, but also the last eunuch in China. The time of his virginity is incredible. It was 19 16. Obviously, Sun became a eunuch within a few days after the Cultural Revolution. He lived in Guanghua Temple until his death in 1996.
Extended data
In the Qing Dynasty, eunuchs became the proper names of eunuchs, and eunuchs were in charge as leaders and belonged to the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
In view of the serious harm caused by eunuchs in Ming Dynasty, the rulers of Qing Dynasty took some restrictive measures. In the early Qing dynasty, eunuchs were under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and were specifically managed by the respect room. The pilgrimage room, also known as the palace supervision room, has two positions: general manager and deputy general manager. When Kangxi was in charge of eunuchs, it was five products, and it was changed to four products when Yongzheng was in charge.
The "Twenty-four Yamen" in Ming Dynasty was designated as "Thirteen Yamen", and the number was greatly reduced. There were more than 1000 eunuchs in Shunzhi, which increased to 3,000 in Qianlong period until the end of Qing Dynasty. The rise and fall of eunuchs is decided by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. If a eunuch breaks the law, the Ministry of Internal Affairs can take it first and then beat it.
In particular, it is forbidden to interfere in politics. The emperor shunzhi imitated Zhu Yuanzhang's old system and erected a cast iron monument in the Jiaotai Hall, expressly stipulating that all illegal acts would be executed in that year. These measures have been well implemented. At the end of the Qing Dynasty, although the eunuchs favored by Empress Dowager Cixi, such as An Dehai and Li, were repeatedly banned, courtiers looked askance, but there was no phenomenon of eunuch autocracy in Han, Tang and Ming Dynasties.
