Cixi was known as one of the most powerful women in the late Qing Dynasty with many secrets. Her strange behavior before her death has so far been revealed the cause of everyone's surprise.

Everyone has to die, either death as heavy as Mount Taishan, or death as light as pink feathers. If you live a peaceful, idyllic life, then leaving, is just closing your eyes and sleeping in a natural autumn that makes people easily accept.

For characters who live at the peak of power, accustomed to manipulating everything, they will definitely not commit to just like that and die. Money and power are pursued by most people. But once there is no more vitality, those things will also dissolve with the clouds of smoke. This also explains why, in the past, there have been so many crazy people pursuing so-called immortality.

Typically, in "Journey to the West", countless youkai, wanting to not lose forever, have laid out enough plans to target Tang Tang's meat. Looking back at Chinese history for thousands of years, Qin Shi Huang previously unified 6 countries, then Emperor Ung Zheng implemented the policy of "Reforming Land Regularity", Even if they achieve great achievements in politics, at the end of their lives they are still engrossed in knitting in order to live forever.

And in the list of people who are crazy about searching for the elixir of immortality, it is impossible not to mention a traditional character, which is Empress Dowager Cixi. Before she died, she drank ba ba soup to keep her last breath because she thought that three-thousand-year-old turtles or thousand-year-old turtles were "magic elixirs".

Historically, although he did not want to admit it, Xu Xi was also an extremely lonely person. When she was 26, her husband died. At 40, his son died. Although she said that she was supremely powerful, wanted something, but seeing her relatives leave her one by one, how could any woman consider it impossible.

At one time, the outside of the Forbidden City was extremely bustling. Cars from outside the palace brought in fresh precious items, or court ministers competed to offer silk brocade, ceramic treasures, there were also emissaries from other countries bringing fancy Western items to pay tribute, lined up in front of the city gates to make people cross their eyes.

Someone curious came forward to ask, it turned out that the great celebration of Empress Dowager Cixi's 73rd birthday was coming, everyone wanted to take this opportunity to please the king. Looking back in the palace, from top to bottom were busy darkening eyes and noses. Some clean, others trim ornamental flowers, others transfer vases, wash vegetables, pork, and goats,...

There was excitement and excitement on everyone's faces, but there was also a little bit of fear. Because Xu Xi was an erratic angry person, if she found out who was not doing well, it would have a tragic end. Therefore, everyone is careful to work in their duties, and at the same time secretly pray that this great feast of life will be held smoothly.

With a blink of an eye, the celebration of life had arrived, when everyone had taken their seats, the delicious dishes were brought into the hall one by one, the old Buddha did not hurry to move his chopsticks, called the grand eunuch Lien Ying to pour himself a glass of white wine, and then drank it all.

That day, Xu Xi was extremely happy, and drank a few more glasses before starting to pick up food. These dishes were said to have invited the best chef in the city to make them, and the taste was even better than usual. As a result, she ate more and didn't feel anything wrong.

After the great party, something unfortunate happened. Early in the morning, Empress Dowager Xu Xi had called to bring the toilet seat several times, but still felt sick to her stomach.

It wasn't long before the sweat didn't stop, started vomiting, went out. The maid hurriedly called the eunuch. The doctor who took the pulse only said that he was going out, prescribed some medicine but it didn't work.

After that, the disease worsened. Every day, the old Buddhist went to the toilet dozens of times, his body was also becoming more and more debilitated, eating without drifting, only drinking a few sips of ginseng soup to hold out. As the week went by, she was thin and skinny and boneless, unable to get to the ground to walk.

From here, the old Buddhist began to drink many tonics every day, forcing himself to eat and drink precious medicines but also to no avail, without any flourishing.

One day, Li Lianying brought a strange remedy. It is said that turtle soup or ba ba has the effect of prolonging life, helping the body to be strong and healthy, so I want Empress Dowager Xu Xi to try it.

Then she had no choice, who told her what to do, and called the maid to get ready. Although it is said that it is impossible to completely cure dysentery, but it is possible to help yourself live, after all, the Great Qing family cannot be without a master.

However, Empress Dowager Cixi's illness was too fierce, so there was no strange remedy that could relieve it. Over the course of several days, she was in a coma again and could only stay awake for less than an hour. The doctor came to the doctor, saying that dysentery had reached the liver and lungs, there was no cure.

On November 14, 1908, Xu Xi asked the palace insiders to take him to visit the seriously ill Guangzi Emperor who was imprisoned. The mother and daughter were both white, looking at each other without speaking, but from the look in their eyes, they could see the other's obstinacy.

Who the future of Great Qing will ultimately be, no one knows at this time. Not waiting for the reformist Guang Tu to change the Qing dynasty, he completely receded from the stage of history.

The next day, after Emperor Guangzi carried the mystery of his death, Empress Dowager Cixi also retired from life forever. Before her death, she did not forget her mission, making Puyi who was only 3 years old at the time the new Emperor.

Many people believe that the old Buddhist, even though he was near the land far from heaven, still wanted to manipulate the Qing dynasty, so he created a young new emperor, causing Guang Tu to leave unclearly.
