Folklore or film and television works generally call Empress Dowager Cixi Laner or Magnolia. It may be because Cixi's first title after entering the palace was "Lan Guiren", and many novel notes mistakenly thought that "Lan Er" was her real name, but it was not.
According to Ye Hena Lagen, a descendant of the Cixi family, Cixi's real name is actually Gu, which is a common name for underage women in Manchu, and the name ""is because there were several ginkgo trees planted in the yard at that time.
Therefore, Cixi's grandfather gave her a big name "Xing Zhen" and a nickname "Xinger", which means "loyalty". As for Emperor Xianfeng, she was originally named as an orchid aristocrat, probably because Xianfeng liked Magnolia best, so she was given such a title to show her love for Xingzhen.

Cixi was born in Yehnala's family. It is said that the relationship between the Aisingiorro family and the Yehnara family is complicated, especially the phrase "Prospering in Yehe, dying in Yehe", which makes Cixi even more mysterious.
According to legend, Ye Henala's family produced beautiful women from generation to generation, and the Qing royal family married this family more. Only the Queen Yeh's family has three, and there are countless other concubines and Fujin.
Nurhachi's mother came from this tribe, and Huang Taiji's mother, Empress Xiaocigao, was the daughter of Yehe's chief Yang. At the end of the Ming Dynasty, Ye He was very powerful.
Because of the marriage from generation to generation, Nurhachi received strong support from Yehe Ministry in the war of unifying Mongolia and other northeastern ministries. Who knows that the smoke has not dispersed, Nurhachi turned his gun and declared war on Yehnara.
After Nuerhachi led the troops to surround the city of Yehe, he did not immediately attack the city, but knelt in front of the city for three days and three nights, demanding that Yehe surrender. Nurhachi's reason is that Nuzhen should unite into a tribe in order to resist the oppression of the Ming Dynasty.
However, Ye He's family doesn't want to be ruled by others, let alone work for an ungrateful person. So Nurhachi ordered that as long as Yeh's people surrendered, they would all be given to senior officials. Anyone who resists, not one left, is killed.
Ye Buhening fought to the death, but he was outnumbered. After fierce fighting, he was attacked by Nurhachi. Tens of thousands of people were killed in Yeh.
Jin Taiji, the leader of Yehe Department, cursed before he died: "Even if there is only one woman left in Yehe Department, I will let the family of Essien Joro perish!"
Empress Cixi (1835165438+1October 29th-190865438+1October 15), Ye Lashi, a Manchu with a blue flag.
From 186 1 to 1908, he became the actual ruler of the Qing Dynasty. It is said that it is for this reason that the emperors of the Qing Dynasty avoided giving titles to Ye He's women.
It was during the reign of Cixi, who was born in Yehe Department, that the Qing Empire fell, so later generations said that Jin Taiji's curse was fulfilled on Cixi. In fact, the Ye He family background of Cixi did not bring her any influence.
In the second year of Xianfeng, 17, the daughter of a declining Manchu Taoist priest, was selected by the palace and made a noble person by Emperor Xianfeng. She is the Empress Dowager Cixi who will be in charge of the Qing Dynasty for nearly half a century.
