On January 8, 1976, he died of illness at the age of 78. After learning the news of ***'s death, the people of the whole country fell into mourning and silence. In order to bid farewell to the pillar of the country and the founder of the republic, millions of people wept the prime minister on the long street in front of Tiananmen Square.
And within our party, a solemn memorial ceremony was also held for ***. But in such a quiet and solemn scene, a strange thing happened. Soong Ching-ling, then president of the All-China Women's Federation, left the memorial service in anger. On the way out, this important national cadre also said angrily: "I resign and don't do any position!" ”
Why did Song Qingling react this way? What kind of secret is hidden?
Click to pay attention and learn about the mystery at the *** memorial service together.
Speaking of Song Qingling, everyone will think of the Song family. The Song family is indeed an extremely brilliant and prominent family in China's modern history. The three Song sisters all married with the top of the Kuomintang, leaving Song Ziwen to control the Song family's family business, and the remaining two younger brothers helped Song Ziwen take care of the family business.
In the eyes of many people, the Song family is all dragons and phoenixes. But among these brothers and sisters, the most outstanding person is none other than Song Qingling.
Song Qingling, born in 1893, was born in Shanghai, China. Soong Ching Ling's father was an industrialist who also had a legendary experience. This gentleman named Song Yaoru, whose real name is Han, changed his surname to Song because of his early years. As a Chinese, he was not proficient in Chinese, and even wrote letters to his father in English. But growing up in the United States, he had a heart for China and was a staunch supporter and friend of Sun Yat-sen.
Song Yaoru's new education in the United States made him extremely dissatisfied with the feudal status quo in China. From an early age, he taught his children about the European ideas of democracy and equality. Therefore, since he was a child, Soong Ching-ling has had a firm and unremitting pursuit of democratic ideals. In the process of sponsoring Sun Yat-sen, Song Yaoru brought a large number of revolutionary publications and materials to the Song family. Even the Song family was sometimes a material factory for Sun Yat-sen to propagate revolutionary ideas.
Soong Ching Ling was also able to get in touch with Mr. Sun Yat-sen, who was dedicated to the Chinese revolution. After graduating from studying in the United States, Soong Ching-ling returned to China, which still did not usher in democracy. At that time, the revolution fell into a low ebb, Sun Yat-sen's revolutionary fruits were usurped by Yuan Shikai, and the revolutionary party went into exile. As the daughter of a good friend and a top student studying abroad, Soong Ching-ling became the backbone of the revolutionary party in short supply and worked as an assistant to Mr. Sun Yat-sen.
During her time as an assistant, Soong Ching-ling became more and more closely associated with Sun Yat-sen, as a new-style young woman who returned from studying in the United States. Soong Ching-ling was fascinated by Sun Yat-sen, who was bent on revolution and intended to overthrow feudal rule. The more she worked with Sun Yat-sen and the more she learned about his revolutionary ideals, the more fascinated she became.
Finally, in the accumulation of time, Song Qingling found that he had fallen in love with Sun Yat-sen, and it was difficult to pull it out again. Sun Yat-sen also loved this young assistant who always followed him. But Song Yaoru was extremely opposed to this. He said to Sun Yat-sen: "For your revolution." I can invest my life and money, but I can't invest my daughter in your revolution! ”
In the face of her father's strong opposition, Song Qingling showed for the first time why she could become the most special one among the descendants of the Song family. Song Qingling left all the opposition of his parents behind and ran out of the house. She chose to run away from home and went to Japan to start a decades-long exile with Sun Yat-sen.
After marrying Sun Yat-sen, Soong Ching Ling, the wife of a revolutionary party leader, lived in an extremely dangerous environment. But she was already aware of the revolution, but she was not dissatisfied at all. She has always closely followed in the footsteps of Sun Yat-sen and fought for the cause of China's democratic revolution.
In 1925, Sun Yat-sen, who went north to Beijing to meet Feng Yuxiang, fell seriously ill. This meeting was originally Sun Yat-sen's attempt to win over Feng Yuxiang, who was entrenched in the northwest, to join the revolution. But in the end, due to physical reasons, he did not fulfill his wish, so he fell ill in bed. Sun Yat-sen, who knew that his time was short, had mixed feelings in his heart, and once again mentioned the famous sentence he had inscribed by himselfThe revolution has not yet succeeded. Comrades still need to work hard. ”This sentence corresponds to the current situation at that time, Beiyang ** still controls the country, and the cause of democratic revolution is long and obstructive.
On March 12, 1925, Mr. Sun Yat-sen, a revolutionary ancestor who had pursued Chinese democracy all his life, passed away. And Song Qingling, Mr. Sun's loyal companion and close comrade, remember Mr. Sun's legacy. Soong Ching Ling has always fought for the cause of democracy in China, and has taken "peace, struggle, and saving China" as his revolutionary creed in his heart.
Such a heroine who has always pursued democracy is also the only one in the Song family.
Song Qingling fought for democracy all her life, and in the process she formed a deep revolutionary friendship with ***.
As a progressive person who has always pursued Chinese democracy, Soong Ching-ling has always been relatively close to our party in terms of political tendencies. Under the guidance of the ideology of the New Three People's Principles during Mr. Sun's reign, the Kuomintang was not in a state of decay. However, in order to grasp the power of the state, Chiang Kai-shek used political skills to suppress political opponents from all walks of life and ascended to the throne.
Chiang Kai-shek, with absolute power, showed his true colors as a lackey of imperialism. Chiang united with the Jiangsu-Zhejiang comprador capital group, united the four major families, and controlled the power of the Kuomintang. At that time, there was even a saying that "the Jiang family is in the world, the Chen family is the party, the Song family sisters, and the Kong family is wealthy".
Although Soong Ching-ling was born in the Song family, the democratic ideas he always adhered to were contrary to Chiang Kai-shek and others. As a result, although they are relatives, they are really enemies. In the process of pursuing the democratic revolution, Soong Ching-ling is bound to come together with our party in the end, and this is the inevitable result.
Song Qingling cooperated with the party organization very early, and he also met *** very early. At the time of Mr. Sun's death, **, as an important leader of our party and director of the Political Department of the Whampoa Military Academy, participated in the mourning activities. Song Qingling met *** in this mourning.
At that time, the two just simply greeted each other, ** to persuade Song Qingling not to be too sad about Mr. Sun's death. Although it was the first time I saw it, Song Qingling had a deep impression of ***She once recalled in her later years: Zhou was still very young at that time, and he was a very handsome young man. But at that time he was already quite a good leader.
After Mr. Sun Yat-sen died of illness, Soong Ching-ling took Mr. Sun's unfinished mission and went to the Soviet Union to understand. In the Soviet Union, Soong Ching-ling fully understood all aspects of a socialist country, and completed the study and research of Marxist theory during the journey.
After this trip to the Soviet Union, Soong Ching-ling became closer to the idea of communism.
At that time, controversy arose within the Kuomintang because of Mr. Sun's death. Some right-wing forces of the Kuomintang began to raise their heads, openly stating that they should not implement the policy of "uniting with Russia, uniting with the Communist Party, and assisting peasants and workers" of the new Three People's Principles. Because of these reasons, the Northern Expeditionary Revolutionary Army also fell into a situation of imminent **.
In the face of such a crisis, Song Qingling stood up. She never forgot Mr. Sun's last wish to "save China before the revolution is unfinished" mentioned before his death. In the course of the Second National Congress of the Kuomintang, Soong Ching-ling proposed that it was necessary to adhere to Mr. Sun's policy of the New Three People's Principles and complete the Northern Expedition.
Song Qingling's outspoken words have been unanimously affirmed by the first representatives of the Communist Party of China. Our party is willing to tolerate the rightist forces of the Kuomintang, just to complete the Chinese revolution and return China to democracy. With the positive response of the Communists and the left wing of the Kuomintang, the Northern Expedition was finally completed.
In 1927, Chiang Kai-shek openly betrayed the revolution and launched the "April 12" coup. In the face of Chiang Kai-shek's shameless acts, Soong Ching-ling publicly announced his name: Chiang Kai-shek betrayed Mr. Sun's revolutionary principles and broke with Chiang Kai-shek as a member of the National ** Nationalist Committee.
Soon after, Song Qingling secretly discussed with *** and other Communist Party members and decided to launch the Nanchang Uprising. On August 1, 1927, Ye Ting and others led their troops to revolt in Nanchang and established the Nanchang Revolutionary Committee. As a member of the uprising, Soong Ching-ling served as a member of the presidium.
After that, in the face of the Kuomintang that had been controlled by Chiang Kai-shek and the three major families, Soong Ching-ling once again showed the brute strength of marrying Mr. Sun. As a veteran of the Kuomintang, Soong Ching-ling repeatedly criticized the corruption and degeneration of the Kuomintang and declared that he would not hold any position in the Kuomintang.
In 1937, the Japanese army launched a full-scale war of aggression against China. **As my deputy, I call on all political parties in China to unite and resist humiliation against foreign enemies. Song Qingling responded positively, and she used her status as a member of the Song family to play the role of an intermediary between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party. In July 1937, Soong Ching-ling met with *** and Lin Boqu and other representatives in Shanghai.
At this meeting, the two sides had an in-depth conversation on the peaceful settlement of the Xi'an Incident and the anti-Japanese cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party. With the help of Soong Ching-ling and other democrats, the anti-Japanese united front of the whole nation was finally established, and the whole country united to launch a war to defend the homeland and defend the country.
**'s death made Song Qingling grief-stricken, so why did she leave angrily in the middle of the funeral and resigned?
Soong Ching-ling was a man of great courage for the Chinese democratic revolution. Whether it was the old democratic revolution or the new democratic revolution, Song Qing always adhered to the principle of democracy. And in the process, she has become closer and closer to the Chinese Communist Party, which also insists on pursuing China's democracy and peace. In 1949, the Kuomintang reactionaries were gone.
Song Qingling, who had been elected honorary chairman of the "Revolutionary Committee of the Kuomintang" the year before, finally clearly showed the world the political tendency of his Song family。In Shanghai, she published articles titled "Salute to the Chinese Communist Party," in which she clearly expressed her reverence for the Chinese Communist Party, calling the party organization a "leader."
This undoubtedly gave the world a great shock and also dealt a heavy blow to the Kuomintang, which was already struggling to survive. As Mr. Sun's wife, a veteran of the Kuomintang, such people all turned to communism and supported communism. Who in the world should not fall into the arms of communism?
In 1949, when the People's Republic of China was officially founded, Soong Ching-ling was elected as the vice chairman of the People's Federation, and soon after served as the honorary chairman of the All-China Women's Federation.
After that, Soong Ching Ling, who no longer had the regret of pursuing democracy, began to focus his main work experience on the work of women and children. Thanks to Soong Ching Ling's efforts, China's care for women and children has flourished.
In addition, as a well-known figure in the field of international diplomacy, Soong Ching Ling enjoys a high reputation in the international community. Not long after the founding of our country, the international community imposed a strict blockade on our country, and even some countries with ill intentions openly slandered our country. In order to alleviate such an embarrassing situation, ** found Song Qingling. After consultation between the two men, it was decided to start an international newspaper. "China Construction" was born under the cooperation of the two.
This newspaper is mainly in charge of Soong Ching-ling, who provides necessary work guidance. The two will work together to present the most authentic and complete development of China to the rest of the world, and to break the diplomatic isolation situation at one time.
In 1975, ** became seriously ill and lived in the hospital for a long time. As a revolutionary comrade-in-arms, Song Qingling personally visited the hospital and told him to take care of his body, and the country still needs a cadre like him. Song Qingling also specially sent nutritional products to help the seriously ill *** supplement necessary nutrition.
But a few months later, ** finally passed away. In order to commemorate the great revolutionary and the founder of the party and the country, a grand memorial service was held for him. At that time, Song Qingling was also ill, his body was very weak, and he needed someone to help him travel.
When she heard the news that ***'s memorial service was held, she immediately sent someone to send her to the scene. Even if she was sick, she hoped that she would be able to see off this revolutionary comrade-in-arms for the last time. Because of physical reasons, Song Qingling came to the mourning venue with the support of the people around her.
But this caused dissatisfaction among some characters. These outlaws who chase power all day long are not very sad about the death of ***, but go around provoking other people's problems. Seeing that Song Qingling was late, there were still people who deliberately supported him. Among them, some people privately exchanged their heads and said: "Chairman Song's pomp is really big!" Relying on his age, he found a bunch of people to put on a show. I see, she's doing gang style. ”
Although Song Qingling is getting older, he is not deaf. She was already very dissatisfied with these people, and now when she heard them slander herself so much, she couldn't bear her anger anymore.
She dragged her sick body and hobbled away from the venue. As she walked, she said angrily: "It's too much, you slander me for privilege!" Say I'm doing privileges, okay! Then I won't do it, I won't do any duties, it's all right! Satisfied! ”
Song Qingling once again showed her "willfulness" that she has never changed, and no one can change the decisions she makes. Despite the persuasion of various leaders, Song Qingling finally ignored political affairs and officially resigned.
But her "willfulness" is only dissatisfaction with the separate people with ulterior motives within the party, not anger at the party organization. In 1977, New China ushered in the second generation of the party's leading cadres with the core as the core. With the efforts of *** and others, all aspects have launched a "rectification of chaos". Song Qingling was asked back to Beijing again.
In 1981, Song Qingling became a member of the Communist Party under the witness of *** and other leaders. Two weeks later, Song Qingling, who fulfilled his lifelong wish, passed away peacefully in Beijing at the age of 88.
Soong Ching-ling pursued democracy all his life and made great contributions to the establishment of New China. This heroine has always adhered to Mr. Sun's revolutionary ideals and fought for China's tomorrow!
