1902 was a year full of grief for Sun Yat-sen, when his beloved Japanese lover Haruda left him forever due to illness, when Sun Yat-sen was only 20 years old.
In 1897 (the 30th year of the Meiji era), Sun Yat-sen lived in the home of Wen Bingchen, an overseas Chinese in Yokohama, who was campaigning for the revolution, and urgently needed an assistant and life secretary. Fifteen-year-old Asada Haru came to Sun Yat-sen's side at this time.
Sun Yat-sen was unmarried at the time, and Asada Haru was also a woman, and the two fell in love for a long time and became a couple. In the past five years, Asada Haru, who dedicated her most precious thing as a girl to her idol Sun Yat-sen, and spent her most beautiful youth with him, leaving good memories.
However, the disease ruthlessly took the life of Haru Asada at the age of 20.
Facing the empty room, Sun Yat-sen felt an unspeakable loneliness, and the feeling of heartache and heartbreak that he could not bear. The pain of losing a lover left him with little respite, and Japan, a country that had left countless wounds for the Chinese, was a revolutionary holy place and safe haven in Sun Yat-sen's heart.
Because of the close geographical relationship between Japan and China, both countries are East Asian countries, and the people are similar in color, Japan became a military and political power through the Meiji Restoration, which made Sun Yat-sen and other revolutionaries yearn for it, and they did not hesitate to cross the ocean to Japan to find a way to save the country.
There are also some people in the Japanese government and opposition who have given great support and shelter to the revolutionaries for different purposes. After Sun Yat-sen's release from the Qing legation in London in November 1897, he came to Japan, where he lived in exile or stayed for nine years until his departure in November 1924.
These nine years accounted for more than a quarter of Dr. Sun Yat-sen's 40-year revolutionary career. During his time in Japan, Sun Yat-sen lived in Yokohama, and then traveled between Yokohama and Tokyo, campaigning for the Chinese revolution.
For Sun Yat-sen, Yokohama was like an extremely important stop on a long journey, and he came to Japan nearly 20 times to engage in revolutionary activities, almost always arriving in Yokohama first, where he took a short rest and began revolutionary work.
When the Xinhai Revolution was launched, Sun Yat-sen was in Yokohama. It is no exaggeration to say that Yokohama was the blessed land of Sun Yat-sen.
Who gave Sun Yat-sen the power? In addition to his ardent patriotic beliefs, there is also the encouragement and support of a Japanese woman. She is Asada Chun, who gave him spiritual comfort during the low point of Sun Yat-sen's career.
However, the sudden death of Asada Chun made Sun Yat-sen unbearable, and looking at his increasingly thin face, Wen Bingchen's heart was like a knife. Wen Bingchen and Sun Yat-sen were like-minded, he was a native of Guangdong, the same age as Sun Yat-sen, and he spared no effort to support Sun Yat-sen's revolutionary activities.
Seeing that Sun Yat-sen was in a poor mental state, he was deeply worried and realized that he needed to find a life partner for him to fill the emptiness in his heart and help him come out of the shadows.
For this reason, Wen Bingchen fell into deep thought and has been looking for a suitable candidate. Until one morning, when he was walking downstairs, a young girl walked by him, and his eyes lit up.
The girl, Kaoru Otsuki, was homeless four years ago due to a fire in her hometown, and moved with her parents to live on the second floor of her Yamashita Town apartment in Yokohama, while also living with Sun Yat-sen.
Moreover, Sun Yat-sen also had a good impression of Kaoru Otsuki. Therefore, Wen Bingchen thought of Kaoru Otsuki and thought that she could be the ideal partner of Sun Yat-sen.
Kaoru Otsuki was tidying up and watering the flowers in the room, when a gust of wind blew, and she hurriedly went to close the window, but unfortunately overturned the vase, and the water flowed all over the floor. At that time, the building had not yet been waterproofed, and the water on the ground seeped down the gap to the first floor, which happened to drip on the desk of Sun Yat-sen, who was writing at the desk, and the paper was wet.
Sun Yat-sen got angry and said to Wen Bingchen: "What the family upstairs did, you go and see." Wen Bingchen went upstairs and knocked on the door of Otsuki Kaoru's house. After learning about it, Kaoru Otsuki's father, Otsuki Sutang, felt deeply guilty, so he asked Kaoru Otsuki to go downstairs and apologize to Sun Yat-sen in person.
This apology, Sun Yat-sen saw Kaoru Otsuki, and was attracted by her tall figure, snow-like skin and elegant manners, and praised her. Sun Yat-sen's words revealed his appreciation and love for Otsuki Kaoru, which left a deep impression on Wen Bingchen.
Now, Sun Yat-sen has lost his lover, and Wen Bingchen recommended Kaoru Otsuki to fill the vacancy, ** Sun Yat-sen's trauma in his soul. At Wen Bingchen's suggestion, Sun Yat-sen acquiesced.
However, Kaoru Otsuki's father objected to the proposal, arguing that the age difference between the two was too great, and that our marriage law requires girls to be 16 years old before they can get married. However, Sun Yat-sen was not depressed by this, and with his firm belief and perseverance, he finally moved Kaoru Otsuki's father.
Of course, the change in the attitude of Kaoru Otsuki's father is also because of his own backyard**, and his daughter is attracted to Sun Yat-sen. Sun Yat-sen's leadership and charisma were no accident: his knowledge, convictions, personability, and eloquence enabled him to easily persuade others to join the revolution, even for adolescent girls.
Although Sun Yat-sen was already middle-aged, he exuded the charm of a mature man, which made Kaoru Otsuki deeply adore him and couldn't help but fall in love with him.
Eventually, she left a letter to her parents and boldly eloped from the second floor to the first floor to live with Sun Yat-sen. Otsuki Sudo and his daughter, "son-in-law", were in front of them, and they couldn't stand this embarrassing scene.
So one day, he came directly to the door and said to Sun Yat-sen: "Mr. Sun Wen, if you promise to be good to my daughter for the rest of your life, marry her." Sun Yat-sen was very happy when he heard this, and immediately agreed: "I will love her as if I were my own eyes, and I will never betray her." ”
Otsuki Sutang finally faced the reality and promised the marriage of the two, promising to let them marry until they were of legal age. A year later, 16-year-old Kaoru Otsuki and Sun Yat-sen entered the wedding hall.
At that time, she was still in the third year of junior high school at Yokohama High School for Girls. Sun Yat-sen fell into deep pain after the loss of his lover, and lived like a year. However, God closed one door for him, but opened two windows for him, allowing him to meet a younger and more beautiful woman, which was a bright moment in his life.
Sun Yat-sen's vision is accurate, and Kaoru Otsuki is indeed a virtuous wife. Although she got married at the age of 16 and was still coquettish in front of her parents at someone else's age, Kaoru Otsuki was very sensible and gentle, not only did she not drag Sun Yat-sen down, but instead helped him sort out documents and mail letters, just like a competent secretary.
The relationship between the two is naturally like glue and lacquer, water and milk, blending together.
Sun Yat-sen's ideal was to establish a democratic republic, so it was impossible for him to indulge in the love of his children, and his fate with Kaoru Otsuki would not last long. However, Kaoru Otsuki had no complaints, she waited for Sun Yat-sen, waiting for him stupidly.
Although Sun Yat-sen only stayed in Japan for a short time, the seeds of love had quietly taken root between them. In the autumn of 1905, Kaoru Otsuki became pregnant, but due to Sun Yat-sen's busyness, she could only bear this joy alone.
However, Kaoru Otsuki did not give up because of this, and she firmly believed that Sun Yat-sen would return to her side and accompany her to welcome the arrival of a new life.
In the spring of 1906, everything recovered, and Sun Yat-sen finally came to Kaoru Otsuki's side. Upon learning the news that he was about to become a father, Sun Yat-sen's joy was indescribable, and he was as excited as a child.
He already has a 15-year-old son and an 11-year-old daughter, but they were both born to his original partner Lu Muzhen, and he did not have feelings for her. His original partner was appointed by his parents, and he did not accept it.
Three months after getting married, he left his hometown and went to Hong Kong to study, leaving Lu Muzhen alone at home to take care of housework and in-laws. For him, home was just a temporary haven, not a place he really wanted to stay.
There is only family affection between him and Lu Muzhen, but no love. Only the child conceived by Kaoru Otsuki can be regarded as the crystallization of his love, so he cherishes it very much. Sun Yat-sen even decided to stay with his wife, accompany the birth of the child, and share the joy of being a parent with his wife.
The touching love story of Sun Yat-sen and Kaoru Otsuki The love story of Sun Yat-sen and Kaoru Otsuki is full of twists and turns. When Sun Yat-sen led the revolution in Japan, Kaoru Otsuki, who was seven months pregnant, was asked by the Qing Dynasty to be extradited to China.
Although Japan ** refused this request, for the safety of Sun Yat-sen, ** persuaded him to leave the country. Sun Yat-sen and Kaoru Otsuki are forced to separate, although they both know that their path to love is full of challenges and uncertainties.
In June 1906, their daughter, Fumiko, was born. In order to commemorate Sun Yat-sen's character Sun Wen's "Wen", Kaoru Otsuki gave her daughter the name "Fumi".
However, Sun Yat-sen was too busy with revolutionary work to return to Kaoru Otsuki. Despite this, he still mailed living expenses for Kaoru Otsuki and his daughter through Wen Bingchen.
After 1910, Kaoru Otsuki never heard from Sun Yat-sen again. In 1911, a revolutionary storm swept through China, with the Huanghuagang Uprising and the Wuchang Uprising.
Although Sun Yat-sen was deeply in love with Kaoru Otsuki, he was already bound by the responsibilities of the revolution and could not spend time with her. Although their love story is full of twists and turns and uncertainties, the love between Sun Yat-sen and Kaoru Otsuki is still full of affection and persistence.
Their love story is a touching history that allows people to see the power of love and the ideals of revolution.
In 1913, Sun Yat-sen went into exile in Japan again due to the failure of the crusade against Yuan Shikai and lived in Tokyo. Although Tokyo and Yokohama are only a few dozen kilometers away, for Sun Yat-sen, it was thousands of miles away.
Because he was busy with his career, he had forgotten about his wife and daughter in Japan. Kaoru Otsuki's mother and daughter's life becomes very difficult, and their experience leaves Kaoru Otsuki's parents speechless.
According to Japanese tradition, married women should quit their jobs and return home to raise their husbands and children, but Kaoru Otsuki has to go out to work in order to support herself and her daughter. Because her husband is cold to her, Kaoru Otsuki gradually dies and accepts the cruel reality.
However, after the success of the Xinhai Revolution, Sun Yat-sen was busy with state affairs and did not care about the personal affairs of his children. When he became a big **, with Song Qingling by his side, he had no time to take care of other women.
Sun Yat-sen divorced his original wife in 1915 and married Soong Ching-ling, a marriage that lasted until Sun Yat-sen's death. However, at the time of his wedding to Kaoru Otsuki, Sun Yat-sen did not officially divorce his original partner, so little is known about the fact that their marriage was not legally considered a legal marriage.
However, due to the loss of her husband's financial assistance, Kaoru Otsuki's life is in trouble, and in desperation, she gives her daughter, Fumiko, who has just turned five, to someone else.
Miyagawa Meiji is a businessman in Yokohama's Hoshigaya district, and Fumiko grew up under the care of Meiji, who she considers her biological father. Kaoru Otsuki gave his daughter to someone else to raise, and later married Shuji Miwa, the younger brother of Shizuoka Bank President Shinoburo Miwawa.
Luckily, Hideji is very fond of Kaoru Otsuki, and her second marriage is just as happy. But she never forgot her relationship with Sun Yat-sen, and cherished every letter Sun Yat-sen wrote to her.
However, when the husband saw these love letters, he was very angry and filed for divorce. It is true that most men cannot tolerate their wives crushing their ex.
Kaoru Otsuki ended her second marriage, took a break for nearly ten years, and finally married the abbot of Tokoji Temple in Ashikaga City, Tochigi Prefecture. Their son, Shikata Motoshin, was born in the summer of 1929, four years after Sun Yat-sen's death.
When he heard of Sun Yat-sen's death, Kaoru Otsuki did not show sadness in the temple, but went alone to a place where no one was there and wept bitterly. That Chinese man has carved deep traces in her heart that cannot be erased.
Sun Yat-sen's daughter Fumiko also inherited her mother's beauty when she was growing up, and finally married Osawa Yoshishi to fill the house under the arrangement of her adoptive father. The son-in-law is an ordinary farmer on the outskirts of Machida, Tokyo, and is six years older than his wife, so he loves her very much.
The married life of the two was peaceful and happy, and they had two sons, the eldest son was named Miyagawa Toichi, and the second son was Miyagawa Hiroshi. When she grew up, Fumiko never knew her life experience, but she only knew that Kaoru Otsuki's "eldest sister" was her grandfather's daughter.
It wasn't until my grandfather died in January 1955 that the "sister" Kaoru Otsuki told her: You are my daughter and Sun Yat-sen's! The reason why Kaoru Otsuki kept her granddaughter's life history secret was because she was worried that her second husband would not be able to accept it, and secondly, because China and Japan had been in a state of hostility for a long time, and making her daughter's life history public would bring trouble to many people; Third, after the identity is revealed, the Sun family will not admit it.
Sun Wuyan has always claimed to be Sun Yat-sen's grandson, but the descendants of the Sun family disagreed, thinking that he was cheating. Kaoru Otsuki also wanted to avoid being the focus of public attention, so he never mentioned this past to others.
Fumiko has always suspected her origins, but there is no evidence. Now that she heard that she was Sun Yat-sen's daughter, she still couldn't believe it. Fortunately, Kaoru Otsuki and Sun Yat-sen's matchmaker Wen Bingchen is still alive, and Kaoru Otsuki takes Fumiko to Yokohama and meets the 90-year-old man.
After listening to Wen Bingchen's story, Fumiko determined her life experience. However, her mother still did not agree to make her affair with Sun Yat-sen public. It wasn't until 1970, when the 82-year-old Kaoru Otsuki died, that Fumiko publicly announced that she was Sun Yat-sen's daughter.
Whether the Sun family approved of it or not, Fumiko would go to pay homage to her father.
In 1977, Fumiko visited the "Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall" in Taiwan and was warmly received by people from all walks of life. In November 1980, Fumiko came to Nanjing, and her admiration arose spontaneously, and she bowed deeply to the Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum in Nanjing.
If Mr. Sun Yat-sen had a spirit in heaven, he would have felt very gratified.
