Speaking of Cixi, ordinary people mostly have negative evaluations of her, but if you look at the historical information at that time, you can't help but find that Cixi Yijie's wife was able to control the power of the Qing Dynasty, as if it was also due to fate.
One of her ability to control the Qing Dynasty was inseparable from her personality, according to Cixi's competition for favors in the harem of the Xianfeng Emperor to the joint curtain with Empress Dowager Ci'an, her personality belonged to the tough kind, like politics and power, so once given the opportunity, she would grasp it without mercy. At this time, it was again said that the environment at that time, although Cixi was only a concubine in the harem of the Xianfeng Emperor, but after the Xianfeng Emperor ascended the throne, he faced a turbulent situation such as the Peasant Revolt of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, the Anglo-French coalition army attacking Beijing and burning the Yuanmingyuan, and in his short reign of 11 years, it can be said that there was constant war, so the Xianfeng Emperor as an emperor was tortured physically and mentally. When he could not take care of it, it is recorded that he had asked cixi who had ideas to help him approve the recital, even if there was obstruction by the ministers, it was useless, which did not provide Cixi with the opportunity to interfere in the government.
However, even though Cixi helped Xianfeng share some of the work, the Xianfeng Emperor still died early without a fight, at the age of 31. But this is also a very sad thing for Cixi, because Cixi is younger than Xianfeng, and she was only 26 years old when Xianfeng died, so it can be said that she was widowed when she was 26 years old. Although Cixi began to live such a life early, people were surprised that her character should not be content with loneliness, but no more information about her private life was circulated.
However, when there is a wind, it will naturally make waves. It is said that Cixi was able to survive 47 years of living alone before her death, and her personal eunuch played a great role and contributed a lot. This eunuch was Andehai.
What more people know about Andehai is that he was a red man in front of Cixi, and in the end he was executed because of his arrogance and arrogance. But to talk about The Favor of Andehai, it is still related to Cixi, Andehai is originally a small false in the palace, because of the cleverness of life, the flexibility of the mind, in front of Cixi no less show off, naturally also dedicated to help Cixi do a lot of things, of which there are naturally many bad things, over time such people will be deeply liked by Cixi, do things Li Suo Na.
In addition, there is also news that An Dehai is actually a fake eunuch, because he has been serving Cixi closely, so there is something about the two, it is difficult for outsiders to find out, and later a doctor also diagnosed that Cixi was pregnant with An Dehai's child, and finally removed it on the grounds that there was bruising in the body, so it did not spread much, but as long as there was a little leak, this matter was spread all over the place, until An Dehai disappeared and gradually disappeared.
