Liang Qichao in the Pentagram Transformation
"The wisdom of the youth is the wisdom of the country, and the wealth of the youth is the wealth of the country; the strength of the youth is the strength of the country, and the independence of the youth is the independence of the country; the freedom of the youth is the freedom of the country, and the progress of the youth is the progress of the country; the youth is better than Europe, and the country is stronger than the earth."
As soon as we read such an imposing sentence, we can't help but think of the young man who ran around for the future and destiny of the country and shouted with his arms raised- Liang Qichao.
As the initiator of the Penghu Reform Law, he had progressive ideas and advocated monogamy.
However, when he had a married wife, he fell in love with a woman and wanted to marry her as a concubine, so why was this?
Things still have to start with the penghu change method.
At that time, China was conservative and backward, and it was the fat meat to be slaughtered on the chopping board of the great powers.
How can the hot-blooded men bear the ravages of their own motherland, they run foreign affairs and change the law.
The generous and righteous Tan Si Tong
However, under the attack of the old feudal forces and imperialism, the Penghu Reform Law only painstakingly supported the failure of a hundred days.
The Qing government controlled by Empress Dowager Cixi carried out a bloody counterattack and liquidation.
They beheaded the six gentlemen of Wu Shu, deposed a large number of reformist officials, and ordered the hunt for Kang Youwei and Liang Qichao's mentors and apprentices throughout the country.
Forced to flee to Japan, Liang Qichao had no choice but to flee to Japan.
During their time in Japan, he and Kang Youwei did not stop exploring China's future path.
They initiated the organization of the Royalists.
The National Salvation Movement is inseparable from the funds for the operation of the activities.
Funding is mainly derived from local overseas Chinese in Japan.
Therefore, in addition to engaging in activities, Liang Qichao needs to run around to "persuade overseas Chinese compatriots and raise funds widely."

In 1899, Liang Qichao was invited by Kang Youwei to leave for Honolulu.
Their intention was to raise money from wealthy local overseas Chinese merchants to maintain the royalists.
What Liang Qichao did not expect was that there he met the "first confidant" in his life.
Dealing with overseas Chinese businessmen often uses English, and Liang Qichao, who is only a high eight buckets, is really not very smart in English.
To solve this problem, a member of the Royalist Order recommended his daughter He Huizhen to Liang Qichao.
Liang Qichao took a group photo with friends
This is Liang Qichao's "first confidant".
unbelief? There are poems to prove it!
"I am ashamed of the prestige of the years, and there are greetings everywhere in the end of the world; Zhi Jing says ordinary things, and the first confidant always lets Qing Qing."
Yes, this is Liang Qichao's love poem to He Huizhen.
Moreover, in the process of Liang Qichao's interaction with He Huizhen, there were as many as twenty such love poems.
Liang Qichao in the case of writing
He Huizhen, who is only twenty years old, is young and beautiful, living in the United States.
Growing up, she received a full-fledged Western-style education.
Therefore, regardless of the way of thinking or dress, He Huizhen is completely different from the traditional Chinese women That Liang Qichao has seen.
This is probably why He Huizhen attracted him in the first place.
Moreover, He Huizhen is a die-hard fan of Liang Qichao.
Portrait of Liang Qichao
She not only admired Liang Qichao's articles, but also often wrote articles to defend Liang Qichao.
For Liang Qichao, whose ideals were frustrated and he fled abroad, it was tantamount to a long drought and Ganlin.
Therefore, the feelings of the two quickly warmed up.
He Huizhen, who received Western education since childhood, never twisted her posture.
"Mr. Liang, can you give me a picture of yourself?" The girl smiled brightly, and her slender white palms spread out in front of Liang Qichao.
Liang Qichao never thought that she would be so bold, and for a moment she did not know how to answer.
In the end, he still chose a photo that he thought he was satisfied with and handed it out, along with his own already shaky heart.
Since then, it has been out of control.
Liang Qichao was eager to stick with He Huizhen all the time.
Liang Qichao's wife, Li Huixian
On the one hand, he felt that he should not have a different mind about other people's little girls.
On the other hand, he was hopelessly deeper.
Moreover, such a young and beautiful girl who understands English can also discharge the depression in her heart from time to time, and how to think about it is a very cost-effective thing.
When he thought like this, Liang Qichao had the idea of marrying He Huizhen for the first time.
However, problems followed.
Liang Qichao already had a wife and children in his hometown.
His wife's name is Li Huixian, and she is a veritable bridesmaid.
Speaking of her marriage with Liang Qichao, it is also a legendary story.
This also starts from Liang Qichao's township test
Liang Qichao was only 17 years old when he participated in the township examination.
His brilliant and novel ideas deeply attracted the chief examiner, Lee Duan-tong.
Lee Duan-tsung
So the examiner did something that made many people unbelievable.
He betrothed his cousin Li Huixian to Liang Qichao.
In terms of age, Li Huixian is four years older than Liang Qi.
In terms of origin, At that time, Li Duandi was already an official in the Ministry of Ceremonies Shangshu. And Liang Qichao's family is nothing more than a poor squire in Guangdong Xinhui.
But it was just that two people who couldn't see it correctly made a good story at that time.
Liang Qichao's knowledge and literati demeanor fascinated Li Huixian, who was proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and Li Huixian often helped Liang Qichao correct his "Cantonese". This made Liang Qichao gradually become more comfortable in the various social interactions of the Beijing officialdom.
What is even more rare is that although Li Huixian came from a large family, he never relied on the power of his father and brother to act arbitrarily in the Liang family.
In her treatment of her elders, she is humble and obedient, and fulfills her filial piety.
Treating the juniors, she is pleasant and loving.
In dealing with relatives in difficulty, she spares no effort and generous help.
Guangdong's climate and life are undoubtedly unfamiliar and unaccustomed to Miss Qianjin, who grew up in Beijing since childhood, like Li Huixian.
But she never complained.
While trying to adapt to life, she personally carried water, scooped rice, cooked rice, and did everything that an ordinary daughter-in-law should do.
Such a virtuous helper solved all of Liang Qichao's worries, so that Liang Qichao could devote himself wholeheartedly to his ideals and career.
"If you have such a wife, why should your husband ask for it?" Liang Qichao couldn't help but sigh.
He did not hesitate to express his words, and even made a long wish to "wish to be a man with one heart, and the white head is not separated".

As a woman, who doesn't crave such a one-person-to-life singularity?
As a result, Li Huixian took care of everything in the family even more diligently.
She understands that a happy marriage must depend on the efforts and achievements of both spouses.
Liang Qichao was busy with his own revival all day long, and he did not care about the livelihood of his family infinitely, so Li Huixian could only make careful calculations and distribute his limited income properly.
Sometimes, when the family really can't afford to buy books for Liang Qichao, Li Huixian will silently take her jewelry to pawn, and then hand over the money to her husband.
Whenever this happens, Liang Qichao can't help but deeply blame himself.
But Li Huixian always pushed him out of the door with no concern: "Don't you want to go yet?" Haven't they been talking for days? ”
Liang Qichao, who was struggling to go out, couldn't help but remind himself in his heart that he must not live up to his wife's affection.
After the failure of the Penghu Reform Law, Liang Qichao fled to Japan alone, and there was no time to resettle his parents and family.
Ordinary women have long been in chaos when they encounter this situation, and they only know how to cry and wipe their tears.
And Li Huixian did not do so.
Letters of Liang Qichao
She knew that if the imperial court sent someone to track it down, it would be herself and her young daughter who would bear the brunt of it.
Therefore, after discussing countermeasures with Liang Qichao's father, Liang Baoying, Li Huixian took her daughter Liang Sishun to Macau to take refuge.
Soon, Leung also came to Macau with other family members.
As a result, the burden of caring for the elderly and raising young girls once again fell on Li Huixian.
Liang Qi, who learned of the cause and effect of the incident, frequently wrote letters to his wife.
The letter was full of his respect and gratitude for Li Huixian.
Liang Qichao even gave his wife a "good friend in the boudoir" praise.
Now he was thinking of marrying another woman.
Liang Qichao struggled for a long time.
On the one hand, the wife who has a deep affection for him, and on the other hand, the lover who he can't give up, how should he choose?
In fact, friends saw the affection between Liang Qichao and He Huizhen early on, and they stood by their side to help.
The most surprising thing to Liang Qichao was He Huizhen.
When she heard that Liang Qichao already had a wife and daughter, she did not shy away from running to Liang Qichao: "I love sir!" As long as I can be with my husband, I am willing to be a little! ”
A young woman with flowers and branches, is actually willing to make herself small?
What kind of infatuation must be!
Liang Qichao finally decided to try it for his "love".
So he wrote a letter to Li Huixian, who was far away in Macau and took care of his parents and daughters.
In this letter, Liang Qichao told the whole process of himself and He Huizhen from acquaintance to love in great detail.
He told Li Huixian that since he was sure that he liked He Huizhen, he often thought about it during the day and at night, and his heart was like a deer running around...
Liang Qichao asserted that he had lived for twenty-eight years and had never had such an experience.
Liang Qichao with his family
At the end of the letter, Liang Qichao carefully gave his own question: "Dear Hui Xian, after listening to my story, do you think I am ridiculous, or do you think I am hateful?" ”
After the letter was sent, Liang Qichao was worried for a long time.
He knew that Lan Xinhui's wife could definitely see the real thoughts hidden behind his childish questioning.
So, what would Hui Xian do?
She is so wise and sensible, she will probably fulfill my wish.
Thinking of this, Liang Qichao couldn't help but feel a burst of excitement.
However, why is there a hint of loss mixed with this excitement?
When Liang Qichao was restless and suffering from gains and losses, Li Huixian, who received the letter, had just experienced a sleepless night.
Originally, for more than a year, the couple has been relying on Hongyan to pass on books to comfort and encourage each other.
Therefore, when Liang Qichao's letter was delivered, Li Huixian did not perceive anything unusual.
She even beckoned Si Shun, who was playing in the yard, to her side, intending to read the contents of the letter to her daughter.
But......
Li Huixian did not know how to describe how she felt when she saw the contents of the letter.
As if he was elated, he was suddenly stuck in his throat.
Nothing but despair and suffocation,
Li Huixian could not show the slightest horse's feet in front of her parents and young daughters.
She forced herself to smile, reported safety to her parents for Liang Qichao, and coaxed her daughter to play for a long time.
It wasn't until there was no one that Li Huixian dared to let the tears of grievance rage a little.
It was he who said, "If you have a wife like this, why should your husband ask for it?" ”
It was he who declared: "May the heart of the people, the white head is not separated!" ”
Today, the words are still in the ears, the past is vividly remembered, but the man who promised to love and protect himself all his life is already unable to sleep for other women!
The more Li Huixian thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt, and she couldn't help but want to tell her parents about her husband's behavior. But what she wanted to do more was to leave this man who had broken her heart.
But in the end, she didn't do anything.
She just masochistically read the letter over and over again.
On the third day, Li Huixian replied to Liang Qichao.
It was a very peaceful letter!
There were no complaints or accusations in the letter.
In the letter, Li Huixian quoted the sentence "Guan Guan Ju Dove, in the River Continent; Lady Guan, Gentleman is Good" to tell Liang Qichao: You have not done anything wrong, so there is no need to be nervous.
She instructed her husband to take care of his body in the tone of his wife, and thoughtfully told Liang Qichao: "If you really like He Huizhen, then I will go to repay my father to complete you." ”
The letters drifted across the ocean and soon came to Liang Qichao's hands.
It completely woke up Liang Qichao like a blow to the head.
He laughed at himself, there were already pearls in the house, but he was not satisfied.
Moreover, if his father was alarmed by his own selfish desires, then his sin against Liang Qichao would be great.
Therefore, in the days that followed, Liang Qichao restrained himself from observing etiquette and quickly alienated He Huizhen.
This vigorous love is over.
Later, Liang Qichao took Li Huixian to Japan, and the family was finally reunited.
Liang Qichao with his children
Since then, Liang Qichao and Li Huixian have faced the ups and downs of life together.
She transcribed the article for her husband and became the first reader of his article.
Together, they took good care of their frail and sick son, Liang Sicheng.
In Liang Qichao's consciousness, he would accompany Li Huixian all the way to this.
He never thought that one day, his "good friend in the boudoir" would open up and take a concubine for himself.
How could a woman who loves her husband deeply do such a thing?
In fact, this is definitely a difficult choice for Li Huixian.
On the one hand, she loves her husband deeply and cherishes his deep affection for her. If she could, she would also be willing to keep each other like this and accompany each other for the rest of her life.
But on the other hand, the two were married for thirteen years and only had one son and one daughter. Moreover, as I get older, my body is getting worse and worse.
If she dies one day, who will take care of the most important people in her life?
At that sight, Li Huixian felt heartache when she thought about it.
After hesitating for a long time, she finally made up her mind.
She wanted to take advantage of the fact that she still had time to help her husband find a suitable girl.
In the end, Li Huixian chose to be his dowry, Wang Laixi.
This girl whose parents died followed herself at the age of four, was very intelligent and hard-working.
Li Huixian felt that entrusting her husband and children to such a person could truly reassure her.
And the passage of time in the decades that followed proved this!
At the beginning, Liang Qichao just didn't want to disappoint his wife.com.
Moreover, this girl, who is only seven years older than her eldest daughter, has her own attraction.
Portrait of Wang Guiquan
As a result, the girl who was renamed Wang Guiquan became Liang Qichao's nameless side room.
Wang Guiquan is also a woman with a huiqing lanxin.
She never cared about fame, but did her best to continue to pay for this family.
She gave birth to six children for Liang Qichao, but she loved the children born to Li Huixian even more.
Wang Guiquan even had no time to take care of his own children who also had diphtheria in order to take care of Liang Sizhuang, who also had diphtheria.
As a result, the child died prematurely.
Hard work will eventually be rewarded, and when the children call Li Huixian "Ma", they also call her "Niang".
And Wang Guiquan also finally relied on his own strength to cultivate Liang Qichao's nine children into talents.
"Three academicians in one discipline, nine sons are all talented." This is the truest affirmation of Wang Guiquan.
Liang Qichao
Liang Sicheng once said: "Liang Qichao gave the financial power of the family to the first lady and love to the second lady." ”
Whether Liang Qichao admits it or not, he eventually fails to live up to the promise he made to Li Huixian.
Behind every successful man there must be a woman's selfless dedication.
Liang Qichao was so fortunate to meet two such women in his life.
It was these two intelligent and selfless women who made Liang Qichao and his nine children.
"Lost in the east, harvested in the mulberry elm".
The grumpy but chivalrous and generous woman who said" "Go up to the high hall, arrest the children, I am alone, the king died for the country, no remorse" Izumi has knowledge, but will regret her choice at that time?
