"A soldier dies for a confidant, and a woman is for a person who pleases herself"
As the old saying goes, chivalry is willing to dedicate their precious lives to their confidants, and women are willing to dress themselves up for those who appreciate their beauty. As long as one person can understand himself, even if it is a liver and brain, even if it is to pay for his life.
As an ancient country with thousands of years of civilization, China has its own culture. At any time, these cultures in China will not change. But then again, in the course of Chinese history, many people have transformed Chinese culture and injected new elements into it.
She is a legendary woman in modern China, who was deeply troubled by traditional Chinese thought and culture, and finally broke free from its shackles. At the age of 13, she was repented of her marriage and abandoned. After that, she decided not to marry for the rest of her life, chose to go to the mall, and in her later years she had no choice but to choose to become a monk. Who is this person? What kind of legend is there in her?
This legendary woman is named Lü Bicheng, and she has spent her life writing her own legendary chapter for people.
First, the family fell in the middle of the road and was abandoned miserably
Lü Bicheng was born in Taiyuan, Shanxi Province, in a family of scholars, his father was a late Qing Dynasty jinshi, it can be said that Lü Bicheng has a relatively wealthy family. Because of the influence of her father, Lü Bicheng, as a woman, gradually grew into a "cultural person" who read poetry and books.
In the era when Lü Bicheng lived, although it was very common for rich ladies to read, it was only a very small part. From the time Lü Bicheng studied seriously, she was already doomed to a completely different fate from other ordinary women.
When Lü Bicheng was 13 years old, her family suffered great changes, in that year, Lü Bicheng's father died of a rain on the mountain, and for a time, Lü Bicheng's family lost its top pillar and the whole family was in chaos.
At the same time, lü bicheng's fellow tribesmen secretly conspired with bandits and arrested Lü Bicheng's family. At this time, only Lü Bicheng in the whole family kept a clear head.
Lü Bicheng wrote to his father's former friend, the Governor of Liangjiang, explaining the situation at home to his father's friends and saying that he needed their help. It is reported that after Lü Bicheng's letter reached the hands of the Governor of Liangjiang at that time, the Governor of Liangjiang was deeply shocked by Lü Bicheng's bravery and calmness, and then, the Governor of Liangjiang personally ordered the rescue of Lü Bicheng's family, and soon, Lü Bicheng's family was rescued, and the story of Lü Bicheng's turmoil was spread out.
For Lü Bicheng's glorious deeds, her husband's family, who has not yet passed through the door, has also heard about it, and in this regard, the Wang family that Lü Bicheng has set up is very uneasy, and is deeply afraid that such a woman will be powerless to marry them. Later, the Wang family dismissed the affair on the grounds that Lü Bicheng had been abducted by robbers.
For Lü Bicheng at that time, this was the second blow in her life, and perhaps Lü Bicheng's determination not to marry for life was firm at that time.
Second, implicated in the arrest, safe and sound
After being repented of marriage, Lü Bicheng went to seek help from her uncle, who did not understand her suffering, but instead advised her to quickly find someone to marry. At this time, Lü Bicheng was abandoned by her husband's family, and she had already looked down on the feelings of men and women, so how could she find her husband's family at this time?
Subsequently, Lü Bicheng left his uncle's house and stepped on the train to Tianjin alone. Lü Bicheng's idea at that time was very simple, I didn't rely on anyone, just to read. As Lü Bicheng expected, after coming to Tianjin, she successfully won the editor of the Ta Kung Pao at that time with a poem "Man Jiang Hong".
In that year, Lü Bicheng was only 21 years old, and in order to allow women in the world to receive education, Lü Bicheng founded the Tianjin Public Women's School and personally served as the chief teacher. With the development of the education business founded by Lü Bicheng, she also became the first female principal in China's modern history.
Later, Lü Bicheng became acquainted with Qiu Jin and became good friends with Qiu Jin to maintain correspondence. Who is Qiu Jin? The revolutionary party in the late Qing Dynasty always preached democratic revolution, and Lü Bicheng became friends with her, and sooner or later she would be implicated by Qiu Jin.
In 1907, Qiu Jin was captured by the Qing court and immediately executed. After Qiu Jin's death, no one dared to collect Qiu Jin's body, only Lü Bicheng came to the street of the vegetable market and personally collected Qiu Jin's body. Lü Bicheng collected the body for Qiu Jin, and it was not long before he was liquidated by the Qing court. Soon, the Qing court arrested Lü Bicheng on the grounds that Lü Bicheng was secretly colluding with Qiu Jin.
After Lü Bicheng was arrested, many powerful people at that time lobbied for him, and among these many people were the father and son of the Yuan family, Yuan Shikai and Yuan Kewen, who heard the news of Lü Bicheng's arrest and quickly found Yuan Shikai and asked his father to rescue him.
What Yuan Kewen did not expect was that Yuan Shikai admired Lü Bicheng for a long time and was willing to rescue Lü Bicheng, and with the help of Yuan Shikai, Lü Bicheng was safe and sound.
Third, the merchant sea sank and took refuge in Buddhism
Because of Yuan Shikai's rescue grace, Lü Bicheng entered the Senate of the Republic of China government at that time. As the only woman who could participate in politics at that time, Lü Bicheng had her own views on current affairs. Just when Yuan Shikai was bent on restoring himself as emperor, Lü Bicheng made different suggestions, but the old Yuan did not accept it, and finally ended up with a fate that was left behind for thousands of years.
After Yuan Shikai claimed that the emperor had failed, Lü Bicheng also saw through current events and finally chose to go to the sea to do business. Lü Bicheng used the resources accumulated before, coupled with her innate super courage, and soon gained a foothold in the business world. After several years of development, Lü Bicheng quickly became an elite that resounded throughout the business community.
Subsequently, Lü Bicheng used the money earned from business as a fund for his study abroad, and Lü Bicheng studied abroad many times and deeply felt the atmosphere of freedom and relaxation abroad. When Lü Bicheng went to the United States, he was warmly welcomed by the Americans, who were honored with the temperament and elegance, and lü Bicheng, who fell generously, was called the "Princess of the East".
After most of his life, Lü Bicheng chose to take refuge in Buddhism in 1930. Lü Bicheng recalled the first half of his life, and felt that the glory and wealth of life were just clouds of smoke, and the result of pursuing fame and profit would only be a void. At this time, Lü Bicheng had already seen through the red dust, and only the Green Lantern Ancient Buddha could comfort her wandering in the first half of her life.
Lü Bicheng, who took refuge in Buddhism, wrote works such as the Records of the Sacred Senses of Guanyin and the Translation of the Amitabha Sutra into English, and also became the first woman to translate the Buddhist scriptures. At this time, Lü Bicheng was no longer the strange woman who had sunk in the eunuch sea in the past, and at this time, Lü Bicheng was just a monk who often accompanied the green lantern ancient Buddha. Her pursuit is no longer glory and wealth, for her at this time, the more plain, her heart is more and more stable.
epilogue:
As one of the legendary women of modern times, Lü Bicheng's legendary experience is unique. Lü Bicheng gradually grew from a rich lady who suffered changes in her youth to a legendary woman, among which Lü Bicheng has settled in the literary, political, business circles, and achieved good results in all walks of life. It can be said that Lü Bicheng is a successful woman, but also a tragic woman.
Lü Bicheng's success lies in the fact that she is from the Xiangmendi school, her own talent, and has many admirers. It should be known that Lü Bicheng can make Yuan Shikai willingly rescue, which is enough to witness the personality charm emitted by Lü Bicheng. With this alone, Lü Bicheng could afford to be successful.
Lü Bicheng has set many precedents in the business and political circles, and it can be said that Lü Bicheng has proved with his real actions like the world that women are not necessarily inferior to men, and she has won power for the majority of female compatriots while also allowing herself to see through the world. Because of chasing for half a lifetime, after Lü Bicheng crossed the business world, he chose to take refuge in Buddhism.
At this time, Lü Bicheng had already seen through the red dust and was completely disgusted with the struggle for fame and fortune, all of which was caused by Lü Bicheng's half life of fighting.
The root of Lü Bicheng's loneliness in his life can be traced back to the wang family who repented of marriage, if it were not for them, how could there be Lü Bicheng who dominated the business world, and how could there be a legendary woman of the Republic of China? At the same time, because of the Wang family, Lü Bicheng also made up his mind not to be a family member.
Therefore, the culprit of Lü Bicheng's lonely and bitter is the ruthless and unjust Wang family. If it were not for the Wang family, perhaps history would present a completely different "Lü Bicheng" to the world!
