Audiences who have watched the movie "Hanging Curtains and Listening to Politics" starring Liu Xiaoqing must be impressed by the beautiful Princess Li, her face is like a peach blossom, her hands are like soft, her waist is like a thin willow, she can sing and dance, and she is kind and intelligent.
Princess Li was deeply favored by the Xianfeng Emperor, and Cixi was very jealous of this, so after the death of the Xianfeng Emperor, the powerful Cixi frantically mutilated Lifei, cut her hands and feet, stuffed her into an urn, and died tragically.
But these plots are all fictional stories in the movie, and they are far from the real Princess Li in history.
The real Concubine Li in history was indeed favored by the Xianfeng Emperor, but she was not a woman who could sing and dance, nor had she ever had a bad relationship with Cixi, on the contrary, the relationship between the two had always been good.
Although Li Fei's appearance is beautiful, her body is poor, and she is a medicine jar, similar to Lin Daiyu in "Dream of the Red Chamber".
Princess Li, who was deeply favored by the Xianfeng Emperor, had no heirs and only one daughter, so she posed no threat to Cixi at all.
Although Cixi is good at power and vicious in her means, she is still very friendly to a woman who is not a threat, and will not kill people in vain for the sake of competing for favors.
Princess Li's daughter was very cute-looking, and both the Xianfeng Emperor and Ci'an and Cixi liked the little girl.
According to the system of the Qing Dynasty at that time, only the daughter born to the empress could be crowned princess of Gulun, and the concubine could only be crowned Princess Heshuo.
Princess Li was only a harem concubine, and it was reasonable to say that the daughter she gave birth to could only be Crown Princess Heshuo.
However, Empress Dowager Cixi disregarded the ancestral system and made an exception to name Princess Lifei's daughter "Princess Rong'an Gulun", which showed that she did not have malicious intentions towards Princess Li's mother and daughter, but cared for her.
Empress Dowager Cixi not only created Li Fei's daughter, but also promoted Li Fei's status several times after the death of Emperor Xianfeng.
就在咸丰帝驾崩不到3个月，同治帝登基后，以丽妃侍奉咸丰帝多年，又诞育大公主为由，向圣母皇太后慈禧禀报恩赏。
After Empress Dowager Cixi heard this, she, in the name of Emperor Tongzhi, decreed that "Concubine Li served the Emperor for many years and gave birth to a grand princess", and honored Concubine Li as a noble concubine of Emperor Li.
This will allowed Li Fei to cross the level of noble concubine, and she was promoted two levels in a row at once.
At this time, the Tongzhi Emperor was just a child, did he have special feelings for Concubine Li?
Obviously, Cixi instructed Emperor Tongzhi to do this, and as for why Cixi treated Lifei so kindly, in addition to Lifei being humble and indisputable from the world, it is more likely that she always supported Cixi in seizing power.
Princess Li had no heirs, only daughters, and her health was not good, and if she wanted to survive in the sinister court, she could only find a solid backer.
Looking at the entire harem, it seems that in addition to Ci'an, only Cixi, who gave birth to an imperial heir, could protect herself.
Princess Li should have befriended Cixi very early on and played a role in the "Xin You Coup".
The eldest daughter of the Emperor, the Grand Princess, born to Concubine Li, was created Princess Rong'an Gulun in September of the fifth year of Tongzhi, and married a first-class male and courageous public donkey in August of the twelfth year of Tongzhi.
The first-class Xiongyong Gong'e-e was originally named RuiYu, and later changed his name to Fu Zhen.
Unfortunately, Princess Xue of Rong'an Gulun in the thirteenth year of Tongzhi was only 20 years old.
It is said that the young Princess Rong Angulun died of difficult childbirth, which is really regrettable.
Princess Li was already frail and sickly, and her only daughter died early, and her health deteriorated, and her day was worse than a day.
On November 15, the sixteenth year of Guangxu (1890), Lifei died of illness at the age of 54.
Princess Li was glorious before she died, and she was also honored after death...
Three days after Princess Li's death, the Guangxu Emperor personally went to the golden coffin to lay wine and perform rituals, and her golden coffin was temporarily installed in the Tamura Funeral Palace.
On April 18, the nineteenth year of Guangxu (1893), Li Fei's golden coffin was buried in the Dingling Concubine Garden of the Qing Dynasty.
The backyard of this concubine's bed has 15 treasures, divided into three rows, and the treasure roof of the concubine is located in the middle of the first row, which is in the most honorable position in this garden bed.
After Princess Li died, she was able to enter the royal mausoleum and be arranged in the most honorable position, which of course was approved by Empress Dowager Cixi, otherwise no one would have the right to decide.
Judging from the above historical information, Cixi and Concubine Li have always gotten along well, and they support each other in the harem, and they are as close as sisters.
In the movie "Hanging Curtains and Listening to the Government", Cixi cut off LiFei's hands and siblings and stuffed them into the urn is obviously a copy of the story of Lü Hou's cruelty to Lady Qi, which purely belongs to Zhang Guan li dai, and the child is illusory.
Therefore, whether it is a movie or a TV series, it is just a story, not a real history, but I don't know how many people always love to take the plot in the film as history, do not argue whether it is true or false, and relish it.
