  Emperor Guangxu of the Qing, Qing Dynasty, Ancient Chinese History
Emperor Guangxu, personal name Zaitian, born in 1871, is the ninth emperor (reigned 1875-1908) of the Qing dynasty, during whose reign the Empress Dowager Cixi (1835-1908) totally dominated the government and thereby prevented the young emperor from modernizing and reforming the deteriorating imperial system.
As the nephew of Cixi, at the age of 4, Zaitian was chosen as the emperor after the previous emperor's death.
Empress Dowager Cixi was outraged and with the support of conservative officials, she cruelly suppressed this reform movement and confined the young emperor to his palace for about 10 years.
