光绪元年正月二十,4岁的载湉在太和殿正式即位。从这一天起,光绪就被慈禧牢牢抓在手里,当作争夺权力的工具。
  婚后短暂幸福
  光绪虽然当了皇帝,但自从入宫以后,陪伴他的只有孤独。他是在繁琐的宫中礼节、慈禧的严厉训斥中长大的,没有母爱,没有童年的欢乐,致使他从小就心情抑郁,身体积弱,难以抵挡疾病的侵袭,留下了难以治愈的病根。
  按照清朝祖上留下的规矩,皇帝到了16岁就要亲政。随着光绪年龄的增长,他的大婚和亲政日期逐渐临近,慈禧把大权交给光绪皇帝已不可回避。
  光绪十五年正月二十,19岁的光绪举行大婚典礼。光绪的皇后和两个妃子都是慈禧选的,皇后是慈禧亲弟弟桂祥的女儿叶赫那拉氏。这位皇后长得实在不漂亮,瘦弱驼背,光绪极为不满,但也无奈。慈禧之所以选自己的侄女为皇后,就是利用皇后来控制和操纵皇帝。

This is meeting quite in fairy-land!-- Such a transformation!--Must not compliment, I know (eyeing Emma most complacently)--that would be rude--but upon my word, Miss Woodhouse, you do look--how do you like Jane's hair?--You are a judge.-- She did it all herself.

Quite wonderful how she does her hair!-- No hairdresser from London I think could.--Ah! Dr. Hughes I declare-- and Mrs. Hughes. Must go and speak to Dr. and Mrs. Hughes for a moment.--How do you do? How do you do?--Very well, I thank you. This is delightful, is not it?--Where's dear Mr. Richard?-- Oh! there he is. Don't disturb him. Much better employed talking to the young ladies. How do you do, Mr. Richard?--I saw you the other day as you rode through the town--Mrs. Otway, I protest!-- and good Mr. Otway, and Miss Otway and Miss Caroline.--Such a host of friends!

his person much admired in general, though not by her, there being a want of elegance of feature which she could not dispense with:--but the girl who could be gratified by a Robert Martin's riding about the country to get walnuts for her might very well be conquered by Mr. Elton's admiration.

a bad thing."    "A bad thing! Do you really think it a bad thing?-- why so?"    "I think they will neither of them do the other any good."    "You surprize me! Emma must do Harriet good: and by supplying her with a new object of interest, Harriet may be said to do Emma good. I have been seeing their intimacy with the greatest pleasure. How very differently we feel!--Not think they will do each other any good! This will certainly be the beginning of one of our quarrels about Emma, Mr. Knightley."

I told my other two brothers also. Alfred seemed to consider it rather a joke, though he, too, thought it was almost certainly an imposture. Cedric just wasn't interested - he's inclined to be self-centred. Our idea was that the family would receive Martine, and that our lawyer, Mr. Wimborne, should also be asked to be present."
"What did Mr. Wimborne think about the matter?"
"We hadn't got as far as discussing the matter with him. We were on the point of doing so when Martine's telegram arrived."
"You have taken no further steps?"

"Yes. I wrote to the address in London with Please forward on the envelope, but I have had no reply of any kind."
"Rather a curious business…. Hm…"
He looked at her sharply.
"What do you yourself think about it?"
"I don't know what to think."
"What were your reactions at the time? Did you think the letter was genuine - or did you agree with your father and brothers? What about your brother-in-law, by the way, what did he think?"

"Perhaps, then, it would be better for all parties, if the sum were diminished one half. Five hundred pounds would be a prodigious increase to their fortunes!"    "Oh! beyond anything great! What brother on earth would do half so much for his sisters, even if really his sisters! And as it is- only half blood!- But you have such a generous spirit!"    "I would not wish to do anything mean," he replied. "One had rather, on such occasions, do too much than too little. No one, at le

"There is no knowing what they may expect," said the lady, "but we are not to think of their expectations: the question is, what you can afford to do."    "Certainly; and I think I may afford to give them five hundred pounds apiece. As it is, without any addition of mine, they will each have about three thousand pounds on their mother's death- a very comfortable fortune for any young woman."
