Henry Puyi.
During the mid 1960s, Beijing was ablaze as the great Cultural Revolution raged through the city. The young red guards had burned over 2 million books and were beating and banishing people for the crime of being wealthy and knowledgeable.
Mao Zedong (Mow Zay-dong) had called for cleansing China of anything and anyone that was against his ideology. Even the middle class were not safe. But then the red guards turned on an old gardener living under Mao's protection.
What did China’s youth have against this poor old man? What dirty secret about China was this old man hiding? How was he related to the 2000 year History of China?
Welcome to Nutty History. Today, we are opening the historical chapter about the Untold Story of the last emperor of China!

Comments are subject to deletion if they are not germane. I have no problem with a bit of colourful language, but blasphemy or depraved profanity will not be allowed. Attacks on the Catholic Faith will not be tolerated. Comments will be deleted that are republican (Yanks! Note the lower case 'r'!), attacks on the legitimacy of Pope Francis as the Vicar of Christ (I know he's a material heretic and a Protector of Perverts, and I definitely want him gone yesterday! However, he is Pope, and I pray for him every day.), the legitimacy of the House of Windsor or of the claims of the Elder Line of the House of France, or attacks on the legitimacy of any of the currently ruling Houses of Europe.
