Is the emperor shunzhi a monk or dead?

Shunzhi almost became a monk in seventeen years.

In the eighteenth year of Shunzhi (166 1), the emperor shunzhi died of smallpox at the age of 24, and was buried in the Xiaoling Mausoleum of Dongqing.

In the seventeenth year of Shunzhi (1660), Dong Fei died of illness in Chenggan Palace, suffering greatly, and his political anguish also troubled him. At this time, only Buddhism gave him something to trust, so he sprouted the idea of becoming a monk.

At the turn of September and October, Fu Lin made up his mind to become a monk and changed his tonsure from Tiaoxisen to the bald son of heaven. 10 15, Tiaoxisen's teacher, Zen master Yulin Tongyu, arrived in Beijing with a letter. When he heard that his apprentice shaved the emperor's hair, he flew into a rage and immediately ordered everyone to pile up firewood and prepare to burn Tiaoxisen.

Lin Tong, a Zen master, advised the emperor shunzhi: "If the secular law is discussed, the emperor should always sit on the throne, which can stabilize the heart of the Virgin Mary and make the people live and work in peace;" According to the law of life, the emperor should also be the eternal monarch and emperor, who can protect those who practice Buddhism and live in the residences of all powerful bodhisattvas. "

The emperor shunzhi took his advice, allowed to grow hair, and temporarily gave up the idea of becoming a monk.
