Why did Cixi poison Guangxu before she died?
Because Cixi was obsessed with power, she ordered her cronies to poison Guangxu before she died.

Cixi was afraid that she would die first, and Guangxu regained power and turned over the old case. As a result, she sought medical advice for many times all over the country, creating a public opinion that Guangxu was seriously ill, hoping that Guangxu would die first because of his infirmity and illness and quietly disappear from the world. However, contrary to expectations, it happened that he was seriously ill first, and he couldn't afford it. So before he died, he ordered his cronies to poison Guangxu.

Cixi will definitely murder Guangxu before she dies. Many officials and eunuchs are well aware of this, but dare not say it. Earlier in China, it was pointed out that the conspirator was Yu Ding, a bachelor of imperial academy and an official stationed in Beijing who had been accompanying Guangxu Emperor for a long time. His job is to record Guangxu's daily life words and deeds. Before the demise of the Qing Dynasty, that is, in April of Xuantong's third year, he had written the Biography of chongling, which was the biography of Emperor Guangxu.

After the 1980s, the situation changed. The study of Qing history pays more attention to the archives of Qing palace, which are numerous and involve all aspects, and many medical records of Guangxu are well preserved.

So historians, archivists and medical experts cooperated with each other, carefully collected and studied Guangxu's pulse cases and prescriptions, explored his lifelong health, and reached the opposite conclusion.

It is believed that Guangxu was weak all his life, especially after thirty-four years of Guangxu. His death was a natural death, not the murder of Cixi and others. "Guangxu's death showed no signs of poisoning or injury, and there was no sign of sudden premature death. It should be a normal death. "

After a detailed study and analysis of Guangxu's pulse cases, experts said that Guangxu was weak when he was young, and he felt a little cold before the wedding, so he was bound to have a headache and his body was thin. He 15, 16 years old is weak, and at the age of 27 and 28, his tinnitus and brain ringing are getting worse and worse, and he has long-term nocturnal emission. On weekdays, due to the abuse of Cixi, life is poor.

After the Reform Movement of 1898, I was under house arrest for a long time, with no food and no clothes. Although there are many dishes listed in the Forbidden City, most of them are rotten and cannot be imported. Sometimes the imperial kitchen is changed, and I have to tell the queen mother first. Empress Dowager often blamed frugality, but Guangxu dared not speak. Guangxu Mansion of Hanyuan Temple in Yingtai has been in disrepair for a long time, and it is full of ventilation everywhere. There is no fire in the middle of winter and it is extremely cold.

The old eunuch Wang, who served Guangxu, went up to discuss with Li Shan, Minister of the Interior Office. Lishan also sympathized with the emperor's situation, secretly renovated the Hanyuan Temple and posted enough paper for it. Unexpectedly, when Cixi heard about it, she took it out on Mount Li. "It seems that you are more and more capable and will be lucky. I'll send you to clean Yingtai tomorrow. " Li Shan was so scared that he slapped himself in the face and even called "I deserve to die."

At the beginning of the Boxer Rebellion, it was probably thought that Mount Li would be associated with Guangxu and foreigners, but Cixi actually put Mount Li to death.

People's Daily Online-Dai Yi: Before she died, Cixi ordered her cronies to start poisoning Guangxu.
