In January 1935, the Red Army held the famous Zunyi Conference in Zunyi, which corrected Wang Ming's error of the "leftist" line, relieved Bogu and Li De of military command, and turned the Red Army into a safe place. In fact, in the early days of the Zunyi Conference, Bogu, who was the general manager at the time, did not expect that the wind direction of the meeting would suddenly change, and it was Zhang Wentian and others who took the initiative to stand up and point out Bogu's mistakes.
During the Soviet period, everyone was deeply poisoned by the "Left" line, and after some people took the lead in standing up, the participants began to talk about it. Under the impetus of Zhang Wentian and others, the Zunyi Conference established a new military three-man regiment, and Chairman Mao also entered the military command regiment and began to command the Red Army. Chairman Mao's entry into the military command regiment was due to a key vote cast at the meeting by a man named Wang Jiaxiang.
Today our story is related to Wang Jiaxiang, the protagonist of the story is Wang Jiaxiang's wife, her name is Zhu Zhongli. Zhu Zhongli was born in 1915, a native of Changsha, Hunan, born in a scholarly Mendi, so although she was a girl, her family did not leave her education, in 1931, Zhu Zhongli entered shanghai Tongde Medical College to study, during the study period, she came into contact with progressive ideas, joined the Communist Youth League, and began to participate in revolutionary activities.
After the 129 Movement, Yan'an became a revolutionary holy land of anti-Japanese resistance and a place that many progressive students aspired to. In 1937, as a progressive young woman, Zhu Zhongli went to Yan'an and began to participate in the anti-Japanese salvation movement. Zhu Zhongli studied medicine, and at that time, there was a serious shortage of doctors in the border area hospital, and after arriving in Yan'an, Zhu Zhongli soon became a surgeon in the border area hospital. It is worth mentioning that although Zhu Zhongli has just graduated, she has superb medical skills and even became Chairman Mao's health doctor after arriving in Yan'an.
Zhu Zhongli is a native of Changsha, Hunan Province, her father is an enlightened person who has contacts with Chairman Mao, and Zhu Zhongli once met Chairman Mao at home in her childhood, so she is not only Chairman Mao's health doctor, but also Chairman Mao's junior. Zhu Zhongli was still alone when she arrived in Yan'an, and as an elder, Chairman Mao was very concerned about her life's affairs and always wanted to find a Ruyi Langjun for her.
Chairman Mao thought of Wang Jiaxiang, who had already had two marriages at that time, but his first wife died, and his second wife was a Ukrainian girl, and the two had no feelings for each other. After a meeting, Chairman Mao introduced Zhu Zhongli to Wang Jiaxiang, and after a period of understanding, the two fell in love with each other, and in March 1939, Zhu Zhongli and Wang Jiaxiang were married in Yan'an.
After the founding of New China, Wang Jiaxiang served as ambassador to the Soviet Union, and Zhu Zhongli accompanied Wang Jiaxiang to the Soviet Union and entered the embassy. After returning from the Soviet Union, Zhu Zhongli continued to work in the field of medicine and health, successively serving as the director of the Maternal and Child Health Division of the Department of Maternal and Child Health of the Ministry of Health and the Chinese president of the Soviet Red Cross Hospital in Beijing, and did a lot of basic work for the medical and health undertakings of New China.
However, after Wang Jiaxiang's death in 1974, Zhu Zhongli left the medical field and devoted herself to writing, publishing many literary works. In her later years, Zhu Zhongli served as a member of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and an honorary adviser to the Chinese Medical Association, and retired in 1990, after which she lived mainly in Beijing, and died of illness in 2014 at the age of 99.
It is worth mentioning that Zhu Zhongli also has an older sister named Zhu Zhongzhi, and Zhu Zhongzhi's husband, that is, Zhu Zhongli's brother-in-law, is Xiao Jinguang. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, Xiao Jinguang served as the commander of the Navy, and when he was awarded the title in 1955, Xiao Jinguang was awarded the rank of general and became the founding general. After the award, Xiao Jinguang presided over the work of the navy for a long time, made outstanding contributions to the construction and development of China's navy, and was one of the founders of the new Chinese navy.
