Puyi is a controversial figure in the modern history of China. He has eleven brothers and sisters, born to two mothers. Two of the eleven brothers and sisters died long ago, leaving only nine people. Pu Ren is Pu Yi's half-brother. After the Qing government was overthrown, Puyi followed the people to create the Puppet Manchukuo. But Pu Ren did not join Pu Yi to become Manchukuo.
Pu Ren * * * has two wives, namely (197 1 died of illness) and Zhang (1975 remarried and died). Jin Yuting has three sons and two daughters, namely, the eldest son Jin Zhang Yu, the second son Jin Yuxi, the eldest daughter Jin Yukun, the second daughter Jin Yuxi and the youngest son Jin Yulan.
Pu Ren loved learning, history, literature, painting and calligraphy since childhood. He used to be the principal of Xibanqiao Primary School in Ye Jing Primary School, and was re-elected as a member of the Beijing Municipal Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference for three times, and a researcher at the Beijing Institute of Literature and History.
When the Puppet Manchukuo was founded, Pu Ren did not follow Pu Yi. Later, after the September 18th Incident, he went with his father, Zai Feng, to visit Puyi in the Northeast Puppet Manchukuo. In the northeast, they saw that Pu Yi and others were only puppets of the Japanese Kwantung Army and were restricted by the Japanese everywhere. At the same time, they saw the devastation in the northeast under Japanese rule, which made him feel extremely sad. Puyi invited him to stay and continue to be a prince. He flatly refused the invitation and quickly turned to Beijing.
1947, with the support of Zai Feng, the nearby Prince of Alcohol, Puren changed the old house of Prince of Alcohol into a primary school, namely Beijing Ye Jing Primary School. He is also the principal of this primary school. Later, he donated his school to the government, and he continued to serve education as a teacher until 1988 retired.
After retirement, Puren insisted on literature and devoted himself to the study of Qing history. In the process of studying the history of Qing Dynasty, he also published many works, such as The Life and Martial Arts of the Prince in the Late Qing Dynasty, Nalan Xingde and Tong Tang Zhiji, The Court's Prejudice on Diet and Medical Care in Qing Dynasty, Memories of Wine in the Palace, etc.
He not only published many works on Qing history, but also compiled the diary of his father, Zai Feng, and published The Ambassador's Diary.
In the early days of the founding of New China, Puren donated many historical relics to the country many times. There are more than 40 cultural relics and more than 7,000 books. These cultural relics were donated by Pu Ren to state units and departments for free.
195 1 year, following his father Zai Feng's last words, Pu Ren donated more than 40 precious cultural relics such as gold seals and silver albums and many precious books such as Twenty-four History to the Cultural Bureau of the Ministry of Culture. In the following years, thousands of precious cultural relics and calligraphy works of Qing emperors were donated one after another.
Pu Ren was indifferent to fame and fortune all his life, poor and simple. He and his wife live in an ordinary private house, which is shabby. But he never thought of changing the cultural relics at home for money to improve his living environment. Instead, he donated or auctioned a large number of cultural relics. I use the proceeds from the auction for charity, but my wife and I live on a small pension. Usually go out to participate in activities, all by bike. Clothes and other daily necessities are also bought at a discount.
In 20 15, Pu Ren died at the age of 96. Pu Ren was indifferent to fame and fortune all his life, which made the world admire his character very much. Although Pu Ren is not well-known in people's minds, his noble and simple character has touched many people.
