Zhongnanhai is located north of the Forbidden City, surrounded by water, and the scenery is very beautiful. In addition, Zhongnanhai is where the central leadership works, and the surrounding environment is very quiet, and ordinary people do not go there. Since no one disturbs, there are many fish and shrimp in the waterway.
Chen Yi's family lives in Qingyuntang, Area B of Zhongnanhai. The neighbors are their children. Their children often get together to play and go fishing and catching shrimp in the nearby waterways. Chen Yi and his children were tired from work. When they have time, they also go to the waterways to relax. Their most common way to relax is fishing.
Speaking of Chen Yi's fishing in Zhongnanhai, there are really many interesting stories. Once, he didn't catch a few fish, but was mistaken for a big spy. What happened? Let's slowly look down together.
The mysterious Zhongnanhai
Zhongnanhai is actually just a small inland lake, which has nothing to do with "sea". So why is it still called "sea"?
Through some historical information about Zhongnanhai, we learned that during the Liaoning and Song Dynasties, the Yanshan Mountains were densely forested, the grasslands on the dam were abundant with water and grass, and the climate of Beijing was also very pleasant. At that time, Zhongnanhai was a natural lake, but the scenery was very beautiful. Therefore, the Liao State built a royal palace on this beautiful natural lake and named it "Yaoyu Palace".
Later, the Jin Dynasty replaced the Liao state and moved the capital to Yanjing in 1153. Later, it renamed "Yaoyu Palace" to "Xihuatan", and at the same time carried out a major transformation of this beautiful place.
Time passed, Kublai Khan occupied the Central Plains, and after establishing the Yuan Dynasty, it was renamed the capital of Yanjing and designated as the capital. After careful renovation and expansion, "Xihua Beach" is still used as a royal palace.
As a nomadic tribe of the northern steppe, the Mongols regarded water as precious as life and as beautiful as a garden, so they called it "sea". "Haizi" means "garden" in Mongolian. Because "Xihua Beach" is located in the south-central part of Beijing, "Xihua Beach" was renamed "Zhongnanhai".
Because Zhongnanhai is located in the very center of the capital Beijing, during the Republican period, Yuan Shikai, Li Yuanhong, and Cao Kun all located the presidential palace here.
In 1927, after Zhang Zuolin entered Beijing, he set Zhongnanhai as the Generalissimo's Mansion. After the victory of the Northern Expedition of the Nationalist Government, the capital was Nanjing. Peiping is no longer the political center, and Zhongnanhai has entered the civilian era.
In 1930, Zhongnanhai was turned into a park. At that time, some buildings in Zhongnanhai were dilapidated. In order to improve the environment of Zhongnanhai and repair damaged facilities, Zhongnanhai Park began to sell tickets. Zhongnanhai is a big place. If you are tired of playing, you can pay for transportation. Cars cost 5 cents, rickshaws 2 cents, bikes 1 cents. There are many empty houses in Zhongnanhai. In order to earn income, there are many houses that are also rented out.
In 1937, after the "July Seven Incident", the Japanese army occupied Peiping. The traitor Wang Kemin moved to Zhongnanhai and established the "Provisional Government of the Republic of China" in the Jurentang of North China. Soon after, a number of other Japanese institutions and the He puppet government also settled in Zhongnanhai. At this moment, Zhongnanhai was in a mess and chaos.
After the peaceful liberation of Peiping, the CPC Central Committee came to Peiping. At the beginning of the period, the location of the office of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China could not be determined, so it was temporarily located in the western suburbs of Xiangshan. Office location.
When the Party Central Committee first moved to Zhongnanhai, it was divided in this way. From south to north, it is divided into three areas: A, B and C. Area A is the office area of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China; Area B is the office of the Central Propaganda Department; Area C is used for government offices.
Subsequently, Zhongnanhai made another major adjustment. The Central Propaganda Department moved out of Zhongnanhai and moved to work by the sea near Jingshan. Leaders of some countries moved to Zhongnanhai.
Boys who like fishing
In 1955, Chen Yi moved to Zhongnanhai, and the family was arranged to live in the fourth courtyard of Qingyuntang. The environment here is very nice. There are many ponds and lakes near Gyeongundo. The fish and shrimp in ponds and lakes are fatty and abundant. The children of the leader couple who live here often go to play in the water together, catching small fish and shrimp.
In order to relieve fatigue and relax at work, veterans often go for walks and play by the water. Those who love fishing always have something to offer here.
Marshal Ye Jianying is very fond of fishing. He catches several fish large and small each time. If he couldn't eat at home, he would give it to old friends to share.
Once, Ye Shuai caught a lot of fish again, so he brought some to Chen Yi's house. After Chen Yi thanked his old friend for his kindness, Chen Yi also became interested in fishing and told Ye Shuai that he would definitely go fishing next time. After getting through the phone, he became fishing friends with Ye Shuai, Nie Rongzhen, He Long and other old coaches, and went fishing whenever he had time.
Many veterans have their own fishing style. Like Marshal Nie Rongzhen, fishing is just entertainment. The fish he caught were never taken away, but put back into the water. Put it back and continue fishing just for fun.
As for Marshal Ye Jianying, as long as there are no big fish and no small fish, all the small fish will be released, and the big fish will be taken back to eat or shared with others. The staff around Ye Shuai would eat all the fish Ye Shuai caught.
At that time, people's lives were not rich, and the food in the market was also monotonous, so the staff was very happy every time they received fish from Ye Shuai. Home-cooked food can finally be improved, can't you be happy? Marshal He Long should be the one with the highest fishing level among them. Every time he comes fishing, he catches the most fish, but it's hard to say whether he lets it go. Sometimes he would suddenly let go of it all after he caught it. Sometimes I pick out the big ones in the water to take home to eat or give away.
Chen Yi's fishing skills are really not flattering. Among the veterans, his fishing performance should be the worst. They caught fish ten times, and nine times out of ten they returned empty-handed.
However, although the fishing performance is not good, this does not affect Chen Yi's enthusiasm for fishing in the slightest. Sitting on the shore in a beautiful environment and chatting with old friends who do not have time to communicate at work can not only relax the mood, but also enhance each other's feelings, which is also a good gain.
Regarding Chen Yi's poor fishing skills, his son Chen Xiaolu said: This is mainly because he is not patient enough. He fishes in one place for a few minutes, and if the fish are not hooked, he can't sit still, saying that there are few fish here, just fish in one place for a few minutes. Move location.
After an hour of fishing, he would move five or six places and watch other fishermen catch a lot of fish, but his basin was empty.
Once, Chen Yi took his coachman, Mr. Li, to Zhongnanhai to fish. After putting down the rod, they are still the same. If the fish does not take the bait for five minutes, he will lose his temper and change positions several times in a row to see if the fish is still there. After catching the fish, he said to the driver Master Li: "Forget it, forget it, I won't wait, you look at the fishing rod here, I'll go play two games of chess." ”
Without waiting for the driver, Master Li, to agree, he handed the fishing rod to Master Li and went to play chess himself, but the next time he went fishing, he would still be excited.
Chen Yi wore sunglasses to fish and was accused of being a spy
Chen Yi has a habit of always wearing sunglasses, and even when he goes to see Chairman Mao, he does not take them off. This should be regarded as a special case of party and state leaders, but Chen Yi did not look handsome without sunglasses. Because his eyes are not very good, he wears it just to protect his eyesight.
According to his son Chen Xiaolu, this citrine graphite glasses were specially made for him by a master of a long-established optical store in Beijing.
However, once when he was fishing in Zhongnanhai, he was mistaken for a spy because he was wearing sunglasses.
After the Party Central Committee moved to Zhongnanhai, the State Council was located on the north side of Huairen Hall and Qingyuan Hall, which was divided into C area according to area.
Premier Zhou and Deng Yingchao live in Xihua Hall. Tong Xiaopeng, deputy secretary-general of the State Council and director of the premier's office, two other deputy secretaries-general and Zhang Yuanyi, secretary to Deng Yingchao, also moved to the State Council compound due to their convenience.
Premier Zhou did not have his own biological children, so he brought his nephew and niece to raise him together. Tong Xiaopeng's son and Zhang Yuanyi's children are both about the same age as Premier Zhou's nephews and nieces, so they often play together.
Deng Yingchao likes children very much and often takes several children to play after work. One weekend, when the weather was good, Deng Yingchao took his nephew, niece, and a few other children in the yard to play in Zhongnanhai.
The children caught fish and shrimp from the water, played for a while, shouted to get on the boat, and Deng Yingchao took the children rowing again. The children sat on the boat and looked around excitedly. At this moment, Tong Xiaopeng's son sitting at the bow of the boat suddenly saw a man wearing black sunglasses sitting on the beach fishing, and his little mind suddenly flashed the pictures of the spies he had seen in the movie, almost all of them. Wearing black sunglasses. Wearing black sunglasses.
The person I see now is exactly the same as the spy in the movie, and I can't sit still, suddenly stood up, pointed at the fisherman wearing sunglasses and shouted: "Mother Deng, Mother Deng, no, no, there is a big spy over there, call someone to arrest him, don't let him run." ”
Then he put his hand to his mouth, in the shape of a trumpet, and shouted at the beach for people to grab the glasses of the secret service.
Because he was too excited, Tong Xiaopeng's son seemed to forget that he was on the boat, raised his legs and took a step forward. This foot stepped on the side of the ship, and the boat swayed. He lost his center of gravity and fell into the water.
When everyone hurriedly dragged Tong Xiaopeng's son out of the water, Tong Xiaopeng's son was still panting, shouting to catch the big, bespectacled spy. In fact, everyone heard Tong Xiaopeng's son shouting when he was going to rob the spy, and even Deng Yingchao was a little puzzled, thinking who was the big spy, and shouted so excitedly.
After Tong Xiaopeng's son calmed down, he pointed at Chen Yi and shouted again: "He is a spy, go and arrest him!" Deng Yingchao understood what was going on.
Deng Yingchao stopped smiling and said to the children: "What kind of spy is he?" He is your Uncle Chen Yi. ”
Then he brought the children to Chen Yi, who was fishing, and said to the children: "Look, is it Uncle Chen Yi?" ”
Tong Xiaopeng's son saw that he was really Chen Yi and smiled embarrassedly.
Chen Yi and other fishing veterans listened to Deng Yingchao's story and laughed.
Conclusion:
All veteran soldiers have an irreplaceable position in the history of New China. They made indelible contributions to the victory of the revolution and the establishment, construction and development of New China, and are worthy of being the founders and heroes of the country.
All of the above is well known, but we know very little in real life. Today, in our spare time, we more or less learn some small stories of fishing old people from the old people. I also saw from Tong Xiaopeng's son the education of children by revolutionary ancestors. The vigilance against bad guys is really high, which is what children nowadays lack.
