The explanation of "Ci Hai" is "originally referring to the scum of the Han nationality, but now it generally refers to those in the Chinese nation who have defected to foreign invaders and are willing to do things for them, or who have lured foreign countries to invade China and betray the interests of the motherland." "In times of national crisis, some people embarked on the road of no return for their own selfish interests and sacrificed their lives for the Japanese. In the list of modern Chinese traitors, a man named Wang Kemin is prominently listed, who is one of the heads of the puppet regime "Provisional Government of the Puppet Republic of China" supported by Japan in 1937.
Wang Kemin was the biggest traitor in Beijing at that time, and he successively held important positions in the puppet government and did a lot of bad things for the Japanese. When the news of Japan's unconditional surrender came, the traitors, big and small, fidgeted and panicked, and Wang Kemin was even more so. Because he knew that he was full of evil in North China and had committed evil deeds, the title of the number one traitor in North China was none other than him. Soon after, he was arrested by the Nationalist government on charges of adultery, and committed suicide in prison on December 25 of the same year at the age of 69.
After Wang Kemin's death, his concubine and son-in-law went to prison to collect the body, stopped for three days at the Bailin Temple on the outskirts of Beiping, and then found a place that no one knew about and buried him hastily. Speaking of this concubine, her name is Gao Ling, and she can also be called a female traitor. She was a miserable woman, and because her family was poor, her parents bought her for money when she was young. And the adoptive father is not a good person, just wants to sell her for a better price. When Gao Ling was 10 years old, she was sold by her adoptive father to the local landlord as a child bridesmaid, and the landlord's family had a stupid son.
At the age of 12, Gao Ling married the landlord's son, who was not at ease, often flirting with her and often beating and cursing her. Later, she couldn't stand this kind of life and chose to run away. The owner of a brothel in Beiping saw that Gao Ling, who was living on the street, had a bit of a posture and let her enter the Qinglou. In order to please men, she learned various skills such as piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and she was very popular with her intelligence and beauty. When Gao Ling thought that she was going to spend her life in the Qinglou in this way, Wang Kemin appeared.
At first, she didn't have any good feelings for this old man who could be her grandfather. But later, when she found out that this old man was the executive chairman of the provisional regime of the Republic of China, she changed her attitude, after all, no one would want to spend his whole life in the Qinglou laughing and circling between men. In this way, Gao Ling followed Wang Kemin and did something that was not worthy of the common people.
After Wang Kemin fell, Gao Ling packed up her family's belongings, and once Wang Kemin died, she buried him and went to a new place and lived a new life. She met the true lover of her life, bore children for him, and did not reveal to her husband what had happened before. Usually, Gao Ling will also take out money to do good deeds, perhaps to make up for her previous mistakes.
Before her death, the 83-year-old Gao Ling did two things, one was to donate her property to the welfare home, and the other was to tell the secret she had hidden for most of her life: she had been the wife of the traitor Wang Kemin. Everyone did not believe that this old lady who was kind and charitable could have a relationship with a traitor. However, the past has always passed, the old lady has gone, let everything fade with time.
