The "Chinese Empire Dream" of the old silver jewelry is precious
Friends who play folklore and old silver collections know that the old silver ornaments of the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China were the most characteristic of the times. Among them, the silver ornaments of the double flag pattern (that is, the iron star eight-star flag and the five-color flag) commemorating the founding of the Republic of China were the most common. The author also collected some old silver ornaments with the double flag pattern of the Republic of China. When I was enjoying the "double flag" old silver ornaments with my friends, I stumbled upon the fact that one of the silver ornaments had a very unique banner pattern, which was neither the iron and blood eighteen stars nor the A five-color flag that symbolizes the five ethnic groups. This discovery made me interested in the double-flag pattern on the old silver ornaments. After reviewing a large amount of information, I finally came to the conclusion that this strange banner was the "Chinese Empire Flag" of Yuan Shikai during the emperor's period. In the spring of 1915, Yuan Shikai actively prepared to change to the imperial system with the support of the British and Japanese imperialists. On October 6th, the National People's Congress held the "National Congress". The national representatives "prospered" the constitution of the monarchy and presumed that the Senate was the general representative of the National Assembly. The letter was written by Yuan Shikai as the Chinese emperor. On December 12, Yuan Shikai accepted the imperial system and announced that he changed the Yuan into the "Hongxian first year" in 1916 and the Republic of China to the Chinese Empire. After Yuan accepted the emperor, he immediately sealed the official residence, and the presidential palace of the Republic of China was also changed to Xinhua Palace (now Zhongnanhai), and a ceremony was held in the Temple of Heaven to prepare for the official opening of the New Year's Day in 1916. Yuan Shikai’s self-disciplined actions have aroused strong opposition from the Chinese people. On December 25th, Tang Jizhen, Cai Wei and Li Liezhen declared independence in Yunnan and the war of national defense broke out. The forces opposed to Yuan Shikai’s imperialism in the Northern Warlords were also unwilling to be lonely. Jiangsu general Feng Guofan, Jiangxi general Li Chun, Zhejiang general Zhu Rui, Shandong general Yu Yunpeng, and Hunan general Tang Yuming jointly issued a power supply, demanding that Yuan cancel the imperial system and punish the culprit. The Beiyang Warlord Group collapsed in an instant, and foreign powers also withdrew their support for Yuan Shikai. Yuan Shikai was rebellious and intimate. He was forced to cancel the imperial system on March 22, 1916 and re-elected the President of the Republic of China. However, the War of Protecting the Country has not stopped, and Yuan Shikai himself died of illness on June 6 of the same year. In December 1915, the great president Yuan Shikai changed the name of the Republic of China to the Chinese Empire, and at the same time announced the abolition of the flag of the Republic of China, the five-color flag, and the use of the "Chinese Empire flag." When it comes to the "Chinese Empire Flag", there is also a small episode. The flag that was first designed by the Senate for the Chinese Empire is "the five nationalities wear a day flag", that is, a red sun is added to the center of the "Five Flags" of the Republic of China. The five empire of the Chinese Empire jointly supported an emperor. After Yuan Shikai saw it, he felt that the red flag was placed in the middle of the flag like the Japanese flag. Yuan Shikai was suspected of traitors. This touched Yuan Shikai’s taboo, and Yuan Shikai refused to enact. The Chinese empire flag endorsed by Yuan Shikai is a variant of the five-nation republican flag. The two sides of the red diagonal strip divide the flag into four triangles. The upper, lower, left and right triangles are yellow, white, black and blue, symbolizing full and Mongolian. The Hui and the Tibetans are divided into four groups, and the Han nationality dominates the world. After Yuan Shikai was crowned in December 1915, he began to refer to the feudal emperor's appearance, casting the year's coin, firing the royal porcelain, and revising the dynasty. The government is in full swing and the people are busy. Some warlords who support Yuan Shikai have created a number of gold and silver products, bronzes and printed materials with the characters of Hongxian first year and the Chinese Empire flag in the areas they control. Wait, to congratulate the new emperor on the throne. However, with the demise of the "Hong Xian Dynasty", these items will soon be wiped out in the long history. The official Hongxian coins and the royal Hongxian porcelain have become popular in the auction, and the "Chinese Empire flag" "It has long been little known. If you want to see the "Chinese Empire flag", you can only seek from the old silver ornaments that are treasured in the makeup. The silver ornaments made by the author during the Hongxian period are mainly silver-colored ornaments such as silver hats, silver hairpins, silver bracelets, and silver robes of Su Zuo. The shape and ordinary silver ornaments are the same. The only thing that can express its special identity is The silver is decorated with decorative patterns that are characterized by “chaosâ€. These old silver ornaments are all in a prominent position with a set of crossed "Chinese empire flag" and five-color flag as decoration, often mixed with "iron and blood eighteen stars", 螽斯纹, Jiahe pattern, horse riding rifle soldiers, male The eagle, the tiger, and the words "Republic of China" are really freaks created in troubled times. However, due to its short manufacturing time and subsequent destruction, the number of deposits is extremely small and precious.
