After the death of Cixi, three strange things happened. Do they foreshadow the future of the Qing Dynasty?

The strange things that happened after Cixi's death are all said to foretell the future of the Qing Dynasty, but they are actually superstitious. By the time Cixi arrived, the national strength of the Qing Dynasty was already declining, but she was confident that China would go to the country. Coupled with the constant attacks of western powers, the fate of the demise of the Qing Dynasty is inevitable. So these strange things can't be linked with the future fate of the Qing Dynasty, but people's superstitions.

Speaking of strange things, one of them was that it was sunny at the funeral, but suddenly it was overcast and even windy, so that the undertaker could not open his eyes. At that time, abnormal weather was often associated with the national movement, so some people said that this sudden weather symbolized the imminent demise of the Qing Dynasty. However, natural disasters often occur, especially in ancient times when the infrastructure was relatively backward, and people's ability to resist natural disasters was weak. In the period when the dynasties were close to extinction, social contradictions were fierce, and natural disasters made it impossible for ordinary people to survive. There have been various kinds of natural uprisings, which is why natural disasters are linked to national movement.

There is another strange thing. It is said that on the way of the courtiers carrying Cixi's body to the imperial tomb, blood flowed out of the coffin, saying that rats ran in. But in fact, the funeral specifications of Empress Dowager Cixi will inevitably avoid these small mistakes. Another strange thing is that it is said that Cixi had a bead in her mouth after her death, which can keep her body from rotting for a hundred years. So after a grave robber pried open her coffin, she found that her appearance had not changed much. But this is more related to the good anti-corrosion measures of the corpse and the good sealing performance of the tomb when buried. Because these measures isolate the body from oxygen, the degree of decay is naturally reduced.

Therefore, to sum up the above, it only happened under various coincidences, and some of them were even fabricated. Even if these things did not happen, the fate of the Qing dynasty facing extinction will not be reversed.
