During the period of the War of Resistance Against Japan, there were heroes who were willing to sacrifice their lives for the country, and there were traitors who shamelessly betrayed the interests of the nation. The former has been passed down for hundreds of years, and the latter has been left behind for thousands of years. The name of the traitor Wang Jingwei is well known in China, and the second-ranked chen gongbo has always followed him, was once one of the representatives of the CCP, and later betrayed the country and became a figure of the left wing of the Kuomintang.
Not only that, Chen Gongbo also raised a mistress named Su Qing, who was ridiculed by the public as a cultural traitor. Su Qing was born in a family with favorable conditions, she loved to read since she was a child, and was admitted to the current Nanjing University at the age of 19, which shows that she is smart and intelligent, and is a very talented woman.
Not long after studying, she chose to marry early and became a housewife after dropping out of school. Subsequently, a daughter was born, during which a number of works were released, which attracted a lot of attention. After a few years, her relationship with her husband changed, and Su Qing returned to her single state. She also wrote an article on divorce. The sharp arguments contained in the content attracted the attention of Chen Gongbo, the mayor of pseudo-Shanghai at the time, and the relationship between the two developed rapidly in a short period of time.
In 1943, Chen Gongbo also let Su Qing work within the government, but Su Qing felt that it was too hard to work hard and did not take long to resign. Chen Gongbo spoiled her, and the salary was not wrong. With Chen Gongbo as the backing, Su Qing even had the money to set up a magazine and write his own books and publish themselves. In Shanghai at that time, as long as it was her book, there was no possibility of not being popular.
Victory was declared in the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression in 1945. The following year, Chen Gongbo was arrested for adultery, and Su Qing did not escape, after all, she had been Chen Gongbo's secretary and had approved many documents. People admired her writing, but spurned her as a person. Later, Chen Gongbo was shot, but Su Qing was acquitted.
When she was tried, Su Qing explained this experience in this way. She said she had written only eight words on all the documents, "the verification is detailed, and the preparation is proposed". She said that she did not care about political affairs, and only fulfilled the duties of a so-called civilian official, which made her escape the sentence and be acquitted.
Later, Su Qing, who had nothing, could only rely on a translation job to make a living. After the Kuomintang retreated to Taiwan, she faced unemployment and could only return to her old profession, writing books, although the salary was meager, but barely allowed her not to worry about three meals a day. She spent all her savings and bought a small house in Shanghai for the rest of her life.
After Su Qing's death, her daughter Li Chongmei continued to live in this small house, living a life of poverty. Until 2011, Shanghai began a large-scale transformation of the old city, just as Su Qing's house was included, Su Qing's descendants received compensation of more than 10 million yuan, so they jumped to become the richest man in Shanghai.
