Since the British opened the door of the Qing court with cannons in 1840, the Western world has set its sights on the poor and weak Qing Dynasty, and the great powers, even if they are not strong, have to come and sign an unequal treaty. Faced with this situation, people of insight in China want to overthrow the decadent Qing Dynasty, drive out imperialism, and let the Chinese people live a normal life.
To achieve this goal, it was obviously impossible to rely on oneself at that time, otherwise it would not have been invaded, so this group of people who aspired to save the country went overseas to study and brought back some advanced ideas.
The women's awakening movement also began to rise at this time, so a generation of legendary women was born, such as the revolutionary ancestor Li Yichun.
Yang Kaihui is used as a bridge, and the head is married to Yang Kaizhi
Li Yichun, whose original name was Li Chongying, was born on February 28, 1899 in Changsha, Hunan Province, to a family of scholars. Because her family ancestors are all readers and her thinking is very open, she has loved to read since she was a child, accepted the influence of new culture, and wanted to break through the shackles of feudal etiquette and pursue her own childhood.
During the study of Zhounan Girls' High School, Li Yichun and his classmate Yang Kaihui made friends, both of them are women in the new era, interested in becoming confidants, many years later Yang Kaihui still wrote poems to remember "Shanghai has a pure sister, Si Yi exhibition I am pregnant." You can know my heart, and you can make me foolish." Through this relationship, Li Yichun met Yang Kaihui's brother Yang Kaizhi, and after getting along, the two fell in love with each other and got married.
Li Yichun's father-in-law Yang Changji and two other high-ranking people, Mao Zedong, Cai and Sen, many progressive young people often gathered together to discuss the way to save the country, which made Li Yichun's vision become more broad and give birth to a revolutionary heart.
In 1918, Yang Changji was invited by Cai Yuanpei to Beijing to teach at Peking University, and Li Yichun and his two families also went north. In 1920, Li Yichun gave birth to Yang Kaizhi's eldest daughter Yang Zhan, and life was also sweet.
Married li lisan for the second time, he introduced his sister to her ex-husband Yang Kaizhi
Yang Kaizhi and Li Yichun's little days were broken by Li Lisan in 1922.
Li Lisan was an early leader of our Party, and not long after returning from studying in France, he went to Anyuan to organize the workers' movement and spread Marxist ideas, which was a very successful workers' struggle.
Therefore, at the end of 1922, Zhang Guotao and Luo Zhanglong invited Li Lisan to Beijing to teach the experience of the Anyuan strike, hoping to promote the workers' movement in the north.
Li Lisan and Yang Kaizhi are old acquaintances, so they have lived in the Yang family for more than a month in Beijing, because they have studied abroad, and the words he says are very new, which makes Li Yichun feel like he is at first sight.
In January 1923, Li Lisan set off for Anyuan, and Yang Kaizhi and his wife were originally going to go south together to return to their hometown, but Yang Kaizhi was not busy with his affairs in Beijing, so he entrusted Li Lisan to take care of his wife Li Yichun to return to Changsha, Hunan First.
As a result, on the road, Li Lisan and Li Yichun had different feelings due to frequent contact, Li Yichun did not return to Changsha, but followed Li Lisan to Anyuan, and then formed a new family, and soon gave birth to a son Li Renji.
Perhaps out of guilt, she wrote two letters, one to Yang Kaizhi, saying that the relationship between the two was over, but they were still revolutionary comrades-in-arms, and at the same time said that they wanted to marry her second sister to him; the other was written to her family, indicating that she wanted to marry her second sister Li Chongde to Yang Kaizhi.
Later, Yang Kaizhi really went to find Li Chongde, and the two of them accompanied each other for a lifetime.
The third marriage married Cai he sen and introduced another sister to her ex-husband Li Lisan
In 1925, Li Yichun went to Shanghai with Li Lisan to lead the workers' movement, during which time she joined the Communist Party of China through the introduction of the police. In October of that year, the central authorities sent Li Lisan and his wife Li Yichun, Cai Hesen and his wife Xiang Jingyu to Moscow to study.
Xiang Jingyu is the only female founder of the party, she and Cai and Sen are both early leaders of the party, so they are very busy with each other's work, the time to get together is very small, and the relationship is getting broken. This trip to Moscow made Cai and Xiang's feelings completely end.
Not long after, Cai and Sen fell ill, because they had known each other in Hunan in their early years, and at this moment, Li Yichun took the initiative to take care of Cai hesen in his hometown. Li Lisan's work is also very busy, and there is no time to take care of this, so history repeats itself again, and Li Yichun has a relationship with Cai hesen.
According to the "Biography of Li Yichun": "Finally one day, she told Li Lisan to break up, and stated that she was with Cai and Sen." After the breakup, Li Yichun thought that his sister Li Chongshan was more suitable for Li Lisan, so he brokered the marriage between the two. I don't know whether to say that she has a revolutionary spirit or how to describe her.
Li Yichun married Cai Hesen in 1926, gave birth to a daughter Cai Zhuan in 1928, and gave birth to a son Cai Lin in 1929. Unfortunately, their marriage did not last long, and in 1931 Cai and Sen were betrayed and sacrificed by traitors.
The fourth marriage is very mysterious, and the five children are all the materials of the pillars
After the death of Cai and Sen, Li Yichun was also arrested and did not get out of prison until 1937, and then defected to Yan'an to work in Yan'an Lu Xun Normal School and the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia Border District Administrative College.
Around 1939, he married a man surnamed Li, the identity of this husband is very mysterious, who is still unknown, but in 1940 gave birth to a daughter Li Jiti.
Li Yichun had five children, and Yang Zhan, the daughter born to Yang Kaizhi, joined the Communist Party of China in 1937 at the age of 17, actively participated in the great cause of anti-Japanese resistance, and in 1941, during the Japanese "sweep", he unfortunately died to cover the evacuation of comrades and became an anti-Japanese martyr;
Li Renji, the son born to Li Lisan, is a famous metallurgical engineer in China;
Cai Zhuan, the daughter born to Cai Hesen, is a professor of neurology and chief physician of Wuhan Tongji Hospital;
Cai Lin, the son born to Cai Hesen, is a high-end talent engaged in the education industry and a university professor;
The last daughter, Li Jiti, is a professor and doctoral supervisor of the Composition Department of the Central Conservatory of Music.
They are all masters, they are all pillars!
epilogue
On the other hand, although Li Yichun is not the leader of the party, she has also made many contributions to the party; she has handled a large number of top-secret documents of the Central Committee, a large number of party funds, and even contacted many outstanding leaders of our party, but she has never made a mistake or divulged a single secret. After Yang Kaihui's sacrifice, his three sons Mao Anying, Mao Anqing, and Mao Anlong were secretly sent to Mao Zemin by Li Yichun at the risk of his life.
During the revolutionary period, Li Yichun carried out the workers' movement in Anyuan; she worked as an instructor and peasant movement in the peasant movement training centers in Wuhan and Guangzhou; she also carried out the women's liberation movement in Shanghai; after the founding of the People's Republic of China, she has also been engaged in the education industry; and she has contributed to the country.
Li Yichun died in Beijing on May 17, 1984 at the age of 85, and the People's Daily commented that she had made indelible contributions to the Chinese revolution and socialist construction.
No matter what others think or say, her life is legendary enough!
