When Puyi left the Forbidden City, what was the reason for the crying in the palace?

Because Emperor Puyi is the backbone of the palace, his departure represents the decline of the Qing Dynasty from now on, and also represents the eunuchs and maids in the palace. Their fate changed from then on, and they had to come outside the palace to make a living by themselves, and no longer enjoyed the previous situation of food, clothing, housing and transportation. So when Emperor Puyi was driven out of the palace by these warlords of the Republic of China, these eunuchs and maids were very sad. Some of them feel sad because they are loyal to the Qing dynasty, while others feel unworthy and sad for their tragic fate in the future. But in any case, the decline of the Qing Dynasty is an inevitable historical trend, because it represents a backward landlord class.

The Qing Dynasty was the last dynasty in China, and Puyi was also the last emperor of the Qing Dynasty. Puyi entered the palace when she was very young. After the death of Empress Dowager Cixi, Puyi became the supreme ruler of the Qing Dynasty, but when he became emperor, he actually didn't have much power. The area under his rule and jurisdiction is actually just inside and outside the Forbidden City, and other things have little to do with him. Because there are many warlords of the Republic of China and many political parties outside Zijin, all of which have their own turf and influence. They don't recognize or agree with this so-called Qing emperor at all. In the eyes of these warlords, Puyi was actually the last emperor in name only. You just need to be polite on the surface.

Later, the Revolution of 1911 led by Sun Yat-sen overthrew the rule of the Qing Dynasty, which also represented that the feudal system existed for more than 2,000 years and disappeared from social history, but the victory of the Revolution of 1911 was stolen by warlord Yuan Shikai. Because Yuan Shikai killed a big lie and said that he was in favor of and supported a democratic and harmonious system. Yuan Shikai said that he could use his own army to end the turbulent state in China and restore it to a stable period. So Sun Yat-sen agreed, and he gave Yuan Shikai the presidency, but he didn't expect Yuan Shikai to announce the restoration as soon as he became president. This led Yuan Shikai to stay in the Forbidden City, and he drove away the last emperor of the Forbidden City, Puyi.

Although Emperor Puyi was driven out, Puyi still did not forget that the Forbidden City was his last hometown and home. In the last course of Pu Yi's life, he was controlled by the Japanese and became a puppet emperor. However, after the founding of New China, Puyi accepted a confession of turning over a new leaf, and finally returned to his Forbidden City for his last visit.
