In modern Chinese history, the person who treats his wife the best is He Yingqin . He was a first-level general of the Kuomintang, but he was willing to serve his wife and took her to Japan to treat cancer. He took her personally for her 26 years of cancer. I believe no one can do it even now.
But what I want to talk about today is not He Yingqin, but another senior Kuomintang official with the same prominent status. He is also very good to his wife. This person is the king of Shanxi who has occupied Shanxi for more than 30 years - Yan Xishan .
Yan Xishan was born in a business family. He gave up studying at the age of 14 and followed his father to do business. Later, his father failed in business speculation and owed a large amount of money. When he was forced to escape debts and went to Taiyuan.
later saw Shanxi Wubei Academy recruiting students, so the father and son discussed it all night, and finally Yan Xishan chose to apply for Wubei Academy. For this reason, his father also found a name-calling person to change the name of Yan Xishan's fortune-telling, because Yan Xishan once called Wanxi, which was not nice.
fortune teller said that he lacks gold in the five elements, so he changed his name to Xishan, so he did not lack it. As a result, he got into the martial arts school after taking the exam, and it was out of control since then.
Later, the 1 Revolution broke out. He was a commander of the Shanxi New Army at that time, equivalent to a later regiment leader. After contacting the revolutionaries, he chose to support the revolution. Later, during the 1911 Revolution, he killed the Shanxi Governor Lu Zhongqi and established a military government. Yan Xishan was elected as the governor, and since then he started his history of taking charge of Shanxi.
His marriage was decided by both parents, which means that he had never seen his wife look like before getting married. It was not until the wedding day that he saw his wife clearly Xu Zhuqing , the appearance of this woman 6 years older than him.
However, after getting married, Xu Zhuqing was unable to get pregnant for a long time. This problem was very serious. In the end, Yan Xishan married a 14-year-old girl under the arrangement of her parents, who specialized in giving birth.
Although he married a little wife, in order to take care of the feelings and face of his original wife, Yan Xishan insisted that the child he gave birth to Xu Zhuqing calls Xu Zhuqing mother and his biological mother to be an aunt. How can a woman bear this? It can be seen that love is unfair.
Later, Yan Xishan's little wife died of illness in Taiyuan, and Xu Zhuqing was the one who followed Yan Xishan to Taiwan in the end. So Yan Xishan let down one person, but made another woman successful.
The most worth mentioning is that after following Chiang Kai-shek to Taiwan, he was miserable in his later years. In the end, Yan Xishan died in Taiwan. His old subordinate had a man named Zhang Riming who volunteered to protect Yan Xishan and insisted on burning incense for him every day. It has been more than 50 years since then.
