"Ask what the world's situation is, and let people live and die." The process and outcome of the Xi'an Incident are well known to everyone, but what is less known is that Zhang Xueliang was recognized as one of the four beautiful men of the Republic of China.
The handsome appearance and the strength of the family background make Zhang Xueliang admired and pursued by many women during the Republic of China period, and today he is a proper "rich and handsome".
However, Zhang Xueliang's own treatment of emotional affairs is completely different from what people in the world imagine. Zhang Xueliang has always been free and casual in his feelings, and it is also such a prodigal son in the love field, but in the end he chose to support and accompany Miss Zhao Si and spent 37 years in hardships and hardships.
Life is like seeing it for the first time
Miss Zhao Si, whose real name is Zhao Yidi, but is the fourth in the family, and her family and neighbors often call her Zhao Si. Zhao Yidi's family is not much power, but it is also a rich family.
Zhao Yidi, who has received a good education since childhood, is full of poetry and self-style, and her appearance is superior among ordinary girls. "Beiyang Pictorial" has also invited Zhao Yidi as a model many times, and it is precisely in this way that Zhao Yidi has also captured the throbbing hearts of a group of young talents.
The encounter between Zhao Yidi and Zhang Xueliang began with a dance party at the Cai Mansion. Both were invited to a ball at the Cai Mansion, in which Zhao Yidi met the handsome zhang Xueliang and fell in love with him at first sight, at this time Zhao Yidi was only 16 years old, but Zhang Xueliang was already 37 years old.
Zhang Xueliang, who was dressed in military uniform, constantly exuded his own "Zhang charm" in the dance, and Zhang Xueliang also noticed the youthful throbbing Zhao Yidi at this time, and he held out his hand to the beautiful Zhao Yidi and invited him to join the dance in the dance. Zhao Yidi, who is deeply immersed in Zhang Xueliang's charm, naturally will not refuse Zhang Xueliang's invitation and naturally become Zhang Xueliang's dance partner.
But the romance is only a moment after all, the age gap between the two is too big, plus Zhang Xueliang already had a family at that time, but Zhang Xueliang has always adopted a non-refusal attitude towards Zhao Yidi's overtures, which also makes Zhao Yidi's feelings for Zhang Xueliang even more unable to extricate himself.
Go to the end of the world for love
Zhao Yidi received an advanced education since childhood, and such an education made it impossible for Zhao Yidi to be Zhang Xueliang's concubine, while Zhao Yidi was deeply trapped in the whirlpool of this relationship and could not extricate himself, and Zhao Yidi fell into a constantly sober and obsessive throbbing of ignorance.
Taking a step back, even if Zhao Yidi himself was willing to become Zhang Xueliang's concubine, Zhao Yidi's family would not allow it. Zhao Yidi's father once had a certain right to speak among the Beiyang warlords, and he could be called an official eunuch family. It is precisely for this reason that the elders in Zhao Yidi's family will not allow their daughters to lower their status and go to other people's homes as concubines.
In order to make Zhao Yidi quickly come out of the whirlpool of "unrequited love", Zhao Yidi's father ruthlessly locked Zhao Yidi, who was very much loved, in her own room and ordered someone to take care of it. I thought that Zhao Yidi would gradually lose his good feelings for Zhang Xueliang as a result, but it backfired.
Zhao Yidi's love for Zhang Xueliang became stronger and stronger.
In 1928, Zhang Xueliang's father Zhang Zuolin was killed in battle, and Zhang Zuolin's troops all fell on Zhang Xueliang, so Zhang Xueliang secretly arrived in Fengtian to govern the army. I have to admit that although Zhang Xueliang is a "playboy" in the love field, he has a certain talent in governing the army.
Under Zhang Xueliang's governance, the situation in the northeast has improved to a certain extent, but Zhang Xueliang's physical condition at this time has a little problem due to fatigue. Zhang Xueliang, who was weak in illness, did not know why, and suddenly missed Zhao Yidi very much, he missed Zhao Yidi's smile that was like a spring breeze, and the shyness and throbbing that belonged only to the young girl.
Therefore, under the impetus of missing, Zhang Xueliang called the distant Zhao Yidi, hoping that she could come to Fengtian to relax. Zhao Yidi, who received Zhang Xueliang's call, could no longer hide the excitement in her heart, and she desperately broke the shackles and ran for love.
After learning that his daughter had escaped, Zhao Yidi's father was very angry at his daughter's impulsive behavior, and even said that Zhao Yidi had gone outside to elope with wild men, and Zhao Yidi was not the daughter of the Zhao family from then on.
Companionship is the longest confession of affection
On the other hand, Zhang Xueliang's wife, Yu Fengzhi, was very calm about this matter, because since she married Zhang Xueliang, she had not driven away the "yingying and swallow" around Zhang Xueliang, plus Zhang Xueliang had not promised to give Zhao Yidi any name, and Zhang Xueliang's wife did not take Zhao Yidi's existence in her heart.
With the passage of time, Zhao Yidi has always accompanied Zhang Xueliang. Yu Fengzhi, who was also a woman, couldn't bear to look at the pearl in the palm of the Zhao family, so she followed Zhang Xueliang namelessly, and even offered to hope that Zhang Xueliang would give Zhao Yidi a name.
However, Zhang Xueliang never took this matter to heart, and Zhao Yidi did not care about the matter of fame at all, and this matter was not resolved. Zhao Yidi even ignored the gossip and gave birth to Zhang Xueliang and always accompanied Zhang Xueliang.
Not long after the two men had a good life, the Xi'an Incident broke out, and Zhang Xueliang was also placed under house arrest by Chiang Kai-shek after the Xi'an Incident, and Yu Fengzhi and Zhao Yidi accompanied Zhang Xueliang to Chiang Kai-shek's "golden wire cage".
Later, Yu Fengzhi fell ill in the rush to let Zhang Xueliang get rid of the bitter sea as soon as possible, and Yu Fengzhi, who suffered from breast cancer, had to go to the United States for treatment, and at this time, the person who accompanied and cared for Zhang Xueliang naturally became Zhao Yidi.
Later, Zhang Xueliang dissolved his marriage with Yu Fengzhi for political reasons, and Zhao Yidi finally gained an official title. And the last moment when Zhao Yidi walked to the end of his life, he did not forget to hold Zhang Xueliang's hand until he left this world forever.
In his later years, Zhang Xueliang once confessed: "Miss Zhao Si is not the person she loves the most, but can only be said to be the best person for me." Zhao Yidi also said that if there was no Xi'an incident, she might not have become the last person to stay with Zhang Xueliang. Zhao Yidi spent his life accompanying Zhang Xueliang, but in exchange for a sentence of "not the person he loves the most". Now looking at the love between the two, I know that fairy tales are only fairy tales after all.
brief summary:
The love between the two is touching, but behind this mutual affection, it is not difficult to see Zhang Xueliang's flirtation with the young woman. Perhaps Zhang Xueliang had a little emotional color when he saw Zhao Yidi, or just out of curiosity about Zhao Yidi, everything in the middle was known only to the two of them.
However, love can always bring people a different emotional experience, people who can love each other may not necessarily suffer together, and people who have experienced love runs may not be able to go white. But no matter what kind of environment and state we are in, what we have in the present is the best, cherish the moment, there will always be unexpected surprises.
