Everyone in the world knows that General Zhu De, the founding father of our country, was a great hero and a truly great man with a great strategy and indomitable spirit. However, during the "Ten Years of Turmoil" period in history, he was also attacked and persecuted by Jiang Qing and others at all costs. Fortunately, he was protected by Chairman Mao, Premier Zhou Enlai and others.
During the "Central Military Commission Meeting" on December 21, 1973, Chairman Mao said to the 87-year-old Zhu De in public: "Boss, we are all old. We should pay attention to our health. How is your health? I know your personality. You are the Red Commander. But they insist on saying that you are the Black Commander." "Ling, I often criticize them and say that they are wrong. I tell them, you are the red commander, then I am the red political commissar, otherwise, wouldn't I become the black political commissar."
Hearing Chairman Mao's words, Mr. Zhu De couldn't help but blush in his eyes, as if a person who had been wronged for a long time had finally been acquitted and recognized.
Until January 1974, Kang Keqing, the wife of Mr. Zhu De, went to attend the criticism meeting held by Jiang Qing on behalf of her husband Zhu De.
After returning, Kang Keqing burst into tears and worried, and relayed all the criticisms he received at the meeting to Boss Zhu De.
After Mr. Zhu De listened carefully, he saw that his wife Kang Keqing was trembling and frightened, so he quickly smiled and comforted her and said: "Don't pay it back. Even if there are a few scum in the army temporarily, most of them are still good. And the local people , most of them are good. The people are all good."
Mr. Zhu De's words of comfort made his wife Kang Keqing's worried and melancholy heart suddenly brighten up, and she was no longer as scared and sad as before.
On June 21, 1976, Mr. Zhu De was preparing to meet with Australian Prime Minister Fraser. However, for some unknown reason, the meeting time was suddenly postponed, and no staff member went to notify Mr. Zhu De, leaving the 90-year-old Mr. Zhu De waiting in the auditorium for several hours.
Although it was hot weather in June, the low-temperature air conditioner was fully turned on indoors. Mr. Zhu De, who is over 90 years old, experienced the temperature difference between cold and hot. When he returned home, he started to have fever, cold, and coughing from time to time.
In the early morning of the third day, his wife Kang Keqing found that he was coughing up blood and immediately offered to send him to the hospital for treatment. But Mr. Zhu De flatly refused because he had work arrangements to meet with foreign guests tomorrow.
In this way, Mr. Zhu De, who is busy with work and dedicated to the country, insists on working at his post. It was delayed until early July of the same year, when he was already too ill to stand and would fall into a coma at any time.
In desperation, he agreed to go to the hospital for treatment. Later, after hearing about this, Li Xiannian immediately went to the hospital to see him.
After learning that Li Xiannian had come, Mr. Zhu De immediately woke up, held his hand tightly and said with sobs: "We must seize production. If we don't seize production, it will be difficult to deal with it in the future. So you must remember, we must Do a good job in production."
Li Xiannian felt even more sad and sad when he saw that the former majestic CEO Zhu De was now so ill that he was so haggard and skinny, but he was still thinking about national events.
On July 6, 1976, Mr. Zhu De finally passed away due to the persecution by Jiang Qing and others. In accordance with his instructions during his lifetime, his wife Kang Keqing handed over all the savings of more than 20,000 yuan that he had saved over the years to the party organization as his last dues to the party. It was also his last contribution to the party organization, the country, and the people.
After the funeral, Kang Keqing and his family went to visit several old comrades at their homes and thanked them for their busy work and hard work for the funeral of Mr. Zhu De.
When Kang Keqing and the children arrived at Ye Jianying and Ye Shuai's home, Ye Shuai held back the sadness in his heart and quietly asked Zhu De's wife Kang Keqing: "Don't be afraid when you get to my house.The boss passed away too suddenly. What were his last words before his death? Or do you have anything to say? "
Hearing this, Kang Keqing recalled it carefully, and then said to Ye Shuai: "The boss has long known that Jiang Qing wanted to get involved in the army. Especially after the criticism meeting at Capital Stadium, the boss felt extremely sad and angry. So he often said to me that no matter whether it is the central government or the local government, or the army or the masses, even if there are a few scum following her, most of them are actually good. The boss said that they never want to go back to the old society, so let us believe in the masses and their determination and strength! "
After listening to Kang Keqing's story, Ye Shuai nodded seriously, and then told her to keep it in mind and not to tell anyone. Later facts and history also proved that what Mr. Zhu De said was correct, and the ambitious Jiang Qing finally received the trial and punishment he deserved.
