Therefore, for Zhang Xueliang, she always stays away. Although the two dated many times, she did not Half a step beyond Lei Chi, she couldn't accept being someone else's concubine. Until later, she met Chiang Kai-shek, and she chose political marriage. After marriage, she had a very good relationship with her husband Chiang Kai-shek, but she has always been very affectionate. However, her ignorance with Zhang Xueliang was also a secret in her heart.
Later, when the Xi’an Incident occurred, she dared to stand up and negotiate with Zhang Xueliang, and Zhang Xueliang also gave her a face. When Chiang Kai-shek gained power again, Zhang Xueliang’s life fell to Chiang Kai-shek’s hands, and at this time Song Meiling, how Maybe let it go. Once she owed Zhang Xueliang a kindness for her husband, now it's time for her to pay it back.
