These books were originally collected in Zhaoren Hall and Yuqing Hall of the Forbidden City, and some of them were kept in Qinchun Palace outside the Palace. Now they are kept by the library of the Palace Museum, and few people borrow them.
I carefully read this set of poems and essays they introduced to me and found that there are many kinds, but they can be roughly divided into two different versions. The first is a copy of Guangxu Dynasty. ……
The second kind of transcript is the transcript of Xuantongchao, which is basically the same as the previous one, but has a unique arrangement. ……

Most of these poems in Guangxu period were written from Shen Jianian to Ugliness (1884 to 1889), while the imperial poems were written in Renchen (1892). It can be said that most of them are his school works. Guangxu began to study in Yuqing Palace in the second year after he entered the palace. By the learned Weng Tong? Xia Tongshan, etc. Guangxu was only five years old at this time.
The Qing rulers were very strict in educating the children of the royal family. Zhao Yi? "Exposed Miscellanies" records:
When the rest rooms are straight, they work early, with a rate of five drums. Hundreds of officials from the Ministry of Education were not present, only a few people from Sura, the inner government, shuttled back and forth in the dark and remained awake. Take a nap against the post. However, from a distance, a gauze lamp has been seen entering Zonglongmen, and the prince has entered the study. ""I have been in class every day since I entered the study and wrote a poem. It's not over yet. There are also things like Master Manchu teaching credentials, learning Mandarin, riding and shooting, which didn't stop until dusk.
Guangxu studied in childhood, in Weng Tong? There are more detailed records in his diary. Although Guangxu's study was troubled from time to time because he was young and playful, on the whole, Guangxu was very diligent in his study. Traditionally, Yuqing Palace is closed on the 27th of the twelfth lunar month. However, by the sixth day of the first month of next year, Guangxu "read and write in the study every day from the 28th of the twelfth lunar month to the fifth day of Xinzheng". Every year1October 10, the birthday celebration of Empress Dowager Cixi will be held, and the birthday celebration of Guangxu will be held on June 26th. On such days, the palace always lights up and sings for several days. Guangxu, on the other hand, "goes to the study at dawn every day to recite the history and write a leaf without interruption", or when others are watching the play, he "takes a look and goes to the backyard to read and write". He told Weng Tong? "They said," the bells and drums are melodious, and these are all Zheng Sheng. ""Everyone who follows them wants to go to the opera, but I don't want to go. "The Queen Mother said," I'm really studious. I recite poems when I sit down and lie down. " It can be seen that Guangxu studied hard when he was a child.
According to "Weng tong? According to the diary, Guangxu began writing from1883 65438+February 7. Weng Tong? In the diary of that day, he wrote: "I wrote four poems about seeing clouds at the beginning, which were very smooth." "It is also smooth to talk about history." Since then, almost every study has made a difference. Two years later, according to the alcohol game prince? X's suggestion, does Cixi want Weng Tong? For example, Guangxu's "On Poetry" was written and presented. At first, in order to strengthen the control and supervision of the study, Cixi asked Guangxu to write poems clearly every day in Yuqing Palace, and submit them together with the exercise books, and then changed them to "delivery after January". The manuscript of Guangxu Imperial Poetry that we see now was compiled according to the manuscript submitted by Yuqing Palace every month at that time. However, due to various reasons, several books we saw today failed to collect all the works of Guangxu. However, in these existing works, we can also clearly see the outline of his early thoughts. Guangxu, who was only in his teens, wrote a short and pithy article with his keen thoughts and sharp writing style, commented on some figures and events in China history, and expounded his political views and ambitions from different angles. It provides very important and reliable information for us to study his early thoughts.
