How did 14-year-old Zhao Si come to Zhang Xueliang's side? Yu Fengzhi told a secret more than 70 years later

After the outbreak of the War of Resistance Against Japan, Zhang Xueliang's wife Yu Fengzhi has always faded from people's vision. In 1989, Zhang Xueliang's wife Yu Fengzhi left an oral memoir before her death, and confessed that it was published a hundred years after she and Zhang Xueliang and others. This is a testimony responsible to history, revealing for the first time how Zhao Si came to Zhang Xueliang's side, and received Yu Fengzhi's care, and finally the inside secret of his life with Zhang Xueliang.

Yu Fengzhi recalled that the marshal was seriously injured by the explosives detonated by the Japanese on the railway from Beiping to the northeast, and returned to Shenyang when he died. Han Qing was very sad and indignant about the murder of the grand marshal and vowed to avenge his father. All matters were taken into account in response to Japanese aggression and military preparations were actively rectified. When there was indecisiveness, he often consulted with me, and I was able to make suggestions from the side, and he often adopted my suggestions, which was the result of the two of us getting along from the time we met as teenagers, and he admired my knowledge and valued me very much.

When China's reunification was first decided, there was a great battle in the Central Plains between Yan Xishan and Feng Yuxiang in an attempt to seize power and rebel against the central authorities. Construction was destroyed everywhere, and millions of soldiers and civilians were killed and injured. Yan and Feng sent people to Shenyang to lobby in a vain attempt to neutralize the northeast. The central authorities sent personnel to ask the Northeast Army to enter the customs to help quell the chaos, and Han Qing said: "In order to seek private interests, these two warlords undermine the unity of the country and destroy the lives of the people. At that time, some people proposed that the entry of the main force of the Northeast Army into the customs would give Japan an opportunity to take advantage of it. Han Qing is the lesser of two evils and chooses justice. The Northeast Army entered the pass and defeated the two rebels of Yan Xishan and Feng Yuxiang in one fell swoop.

In order to reward Han Qing for his help, the central government appointed Han Qing as the deputy commander-in-chief of the national army, navy and air force (the commander-in-chief was Chiang Kai-shek), and entrusted the administrative affairs of north China to Han Qing. In this way, Han Qing presided over China's northeast and north China, and for a time became a high-powered and second person in China. Mr. Han said he felt a heavy responsibility on his shoulders, but that was the time when he hoped that China's long-cherished wish to resist Japan would come true.

Under Han Qing's power in controlling half of the country and the huge wealth left by the marshal, many women used all means to entangle Han Qing for personal gain. Han Qing is very casual with women, and I never ask about this, and I believe that he will never fail me. Only for Wang Zhengting's sister, he asked me to accept her as a second room, saying that she had a good character, returned from studying abroad, and had high learning. And because Wang Zhengting's relationship and the government dignitaries have a relationship, I have repeatedly asked for it, and I have thought twice about this matter and refused. I said: For the sake of the two of us, for the sake of the children, I can't agree. In the end, Han Qing followed my advice.

One of the women in this group was Zhao Qixia, her father was a key member of the government in charge of the economy, she was called Miss Zhao Si because she wandered in the dance hall all day and refused to go to school, she chased Han Qing, and newspapers and magazines hyped up. Her father disciplined her not to listen, and the newspaper broke away from the father-daughter relationship and became a momentary news. On this grounds, she asked someone to come to me and asked to serve Han Qing's permanent secretary and serve Han Qing's life, and Han Qing asked me to decide. I pity her for being fourteen years old and homeless and allowing it. Zhao Qixia came to the Shenyang Shuai Mansion, and as soon as she entered the door, she knelt down and bowed to me, saying that she would never forget my great kindness and great virtue, and that she would be the secretary of Han Qing all her life and would never have any name. I used my money to buy her a house and told the finance staff that I would pay her a good salary to fulfill my kindness.
