In 37 years, Li Liuru went to Yan'an to serve as Secretary-General of the Mao Office. Chairman Mao: This position is reserved for you.

Foreword

Li Liuru, deputy chief procurator and party secretary of the Supreme People’s Procuratorate, is one of the founders of the procuratorial system of the new China.

In life, Li Liuru is also a model for many couples. Li Liuru and Wang Meilan have been through ups and downs for decades. They have shared joys and sorrows, shared hardships, and unswerving love, which can be the generation style .

Mao Zemin acted as a matchmaker for them

As early as 1920, Li Liuru met Chairman Mao and had in-depth exchanges with Chairman Mao. Li Liuru regarded Chairman Mao and He Shuheng as close friends, and Chairman Mao and He Shuheng often came to Li's house to stop by. During

, Li Liuru talked about everything with Chairman Mao and He Shuheng, and the relationship was close.

Chairman Mao

In 1921, under the introduction of Chairman Mao and He Shuheng, Li Liuru joined the Communist Party of China and was the first Communist of Pingjiang County .

In 1930, Li Liuru was blocked in Hugang on his way to the revolutionary capital of Ruijin, Jiangxi, and served as Secretary-General of the Minxi Soviet Government.

Later, Li Liuru moved to Tingzhou with the Minxi Soviet government.

In the autumn of 1932, Li Liuru heard that Chairman Mao was ill and was going to Tingzhou to recuperate.

This makes Li Liuru both excited and worried. He hasn't seen Chairman Mao for a long time. This time, he is very excited to see Chairman Mao; what he is worried about is that Chairman Mao’s body may have suffered because of the fight. He came to recuperate only when he was injured.

One evening, Li Liuru was reviewing documents, and the guard came in and said that a guest was coming.

Li Liuru just got up to meet,Chairman Mao and Fu Lianyun came in together. Li Liuru ran forward, held Chairman Mao's hand tightly, and said, "Please come in and sit."

After Chairman Mao sat down, he asked with concern: "Six is ​​like aspiration, how good is your body?"

Li Liuru He replied: "Okay, okay!"

Seeing that Chairman Mao had lost a lot of weight and he came with the doctor again, Li Liuru looked at Fu Lianyun and asked: "How is the chairman's injury?"

Fu Lianyun said: "It's not injury, but over-fatigue. Chairman Mao has worked too hard."

After listening to Fu Lianyun's words, Li Liuru's hanging heart was relieved.

The two talked together for a long time. It was not until dusk that the two old friends said goodbye.

Soon after, at the recommendation of Chairman Mao, Li Liuru served as the vice president of the Chinese Soviet National Bank and the principal of the Finance and Economics School.

Although Li Liuru is the principal, he often teaches students.

In the autumn of 1933, Li Liu, as usual, came to the classroom to teach students.

Li Liuru stepped onto the podium and looked at the students in the class. When his eyes came to a female student, he felt that the student was a little strange.

This female student is not tall, has short hair, and is wearing an ordinary coat. At this moment, she is lowering her head, copying the text.

Li Liuru turned her head to the blackboard and wrote down the subject of this lesson on the blackboard, the female student raised her head and listened carefully to the teacher starting the lecture.

At the beginning, Li Liuru did not pay much attention to this female student. He only found out that the student was a little worried when he asked the female student questions during the break as usual.

For this reason, Li Liuru called the female student to the office, asked her what was in her mind, and helped her to open the knot in time and go to class.

When asked about the family situation of the female student, Li Liuru only learned that the female student's name was Wang Meilan, from Yongfeng, Jiangxi, who was born in a peasant family and was originally named Ning Jingying. Wang Meilan changed her name after she joined the revolution.

Old photos of Wang Meilan when she was young

Some time ago, soldiers from the army came to tell Wang Meilan that her husband had died in the war against "encirclement and suppression". This bad news made Wang Meilan very sad. .

Li Liuru said something to comfort Wang Meilan, hoping that she can turn her grief into strength and study hard.

During the conversation, Li Liuru learned that when Wang Meilan was very young, she went to someone else's house and became a child bride.

Two years ago, Wang Meilan joined the Red Army with her husband. She was assigned to a hospital as a nurse, and later transferred to the Ruijin Central Financial Cooperative as a salesperson.

Last year, Wang Meilan also joined the Communist Youth League because of her positive behavior, which made her very happy.

In order to let Wang Meilan learn cultural knowledge, she was sent to the Central Finance and Economics Vocational School to study, so that she could transform from an illiterate girl to an educated youth.

Wang Meilan said that at first, she could not understand anything. After the other students were sleeping, she went to the yard to study by herself. After a while, she could understand the teacher's handout.

However, thinking of her husband's sacrifice made her feel sad, and she couldn't help but cry.

Li Liuru persuaded her to cheer her up and she couldn't keep depressed like this.

Wang Meilan said that she didn't want to study in the rear, she wanted to be a soldier, go to the battlefield to kill the enemy, and avenge her husband.

However, the report she gave to the organization was never approved, which made her feel worried, so she didn't have the energy when she was in class.

Li Liuru was moved by Wang Meilan's loyalty to her husband. I persuaded her that she can get revenge not only on the battlefield; in the rear, she can also achieve the goal of revenge.

Wang Meilan listened to Li Liuru's words and lowered her head to think.

In order to open her heart knot, Li Liuru jokingly asked her if she would shoot. Wang Meilan listened and shook her head.

Li Liuru took the opportunity to say: "You can't even shoot a gun.How can you shoot and kill the enemy when you get to the battlefield? Did not hit the enemy, but was hit by the enemy!

Wang Meilan felt that what Principal Li said was right. She raised her head and said to Li Liuru: "Principal, then teach me how to shoot!" "

In order to get revenge, Wang Meilan, a girl from Wang Meilan's family, wanted to learn how to shoot guns. This made Li Liuru feel a little different about the girl in front of him.

Later, Li Liuru called the guard and took it. With the gun in the guard’s hand, Wang Meilan taught Wang Meilan to hold the gun, aim and shoot...

After a period of contact, Wang Meilan also gradually developed a good impression of Li Liuru. In her feelings, Principal Li should treat her There is also a good impression.

Later, Wang Meilan asked about Li Liuru's situation.

After learning that Li Liuru had participated in the old revolution of the Xinhai Revolution, he had also studied in Japan. Chairman Mao was his introduction to the party and is now the party. Wang Meilan felt a little inferior when she was a senior cadre in China.

Wang Meilan thought, she is just a child bride, can she be worthy of such a big leader? President Mao Zemin, Chairman Mao’s younger brother Mao Zemin came to talk to Wang Meilan in person.

After Mao Zemin asked about some of Wang Meilan’s personal information, he said to Wang Meilan: “Li Liu has lost contact with his original wife for six or seven years. Break away from the relationship between husband and wife... He is a senior old comrade in our party... Even my brother Mao Runzhi also highly values ​​him ... It’s just that Liuru is older than you. I don’t know if you agree. Let me ask for your opinion.

Wang Meilan listened, blushing and nodded and said, "No comments.

Soon after, Li Liuru and Wang Meilan got married.

On the day of their wedding, Li Liuru and Wang Meilan placed a door on two wooden stools in a small room in a paper mill to form a simple "marriage". The bed".

I put a thick layer of straw on the bed and spread a patched blanket,On the bed are a pair of pillows embroidered with the word "Happy" in red.

There are two more chairs in the house, even if it is a new house.

After the wedding, early the next morning, before Li Liuru had time to have breakfast with his wife Wang Meilan, he rode a fast horse and ran to the front for an emergency meeting.

Soon after, the fifth counter-"encirclement and suppression" failed, and the Central Red Army began the Long March.

A meal saved every day

After the Central Red Army left, Li Liuru was ordered to go underground and stay in Jiangxi for work.

In the summer of 1936, Li Liuru hurriedly returned home, closed the door, and said to Wang Meilan: "Now, the wind outside is very tight, we must be mentally prepared. If we are unfortunately arrested, we must not betray the revolution. Betray the party!"

Wang Meilan nodded solemnly after listening to her husband.

Li Liuru came to the door. After listening to the noise outside, he came to his wife’s ear and whispered: “It’s said that someone has surrendered. This is not good for the revolution.”

Li Liuru thought for a while and said: " Just in case, if someone asks about your life experience, you will say that your previous husband’s house opened a small restaurant. The year before, your husband overturned and drowned while sailing. It’s sold. Boss Li spent dozens of yuan to buy you back."

After seeing his wife Wang Meilan nodding, Li Liuru hurried out.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for Li Liuru to be arrested.

Wang Meilan saw a large number of military police running towards the house and hurriedly moved outside. I went up the mountain along a trail that I had discussed with my husband, and went to the mountain to find the son of an elderly neighbor.

On the mountain, the son of the old neighbor ventured to take in Wang Meilan and settle her down.

Wang Meilan worried about the safety of her husband Li Liuru, and was very anxious, so she asked someone to go down the mountain to get news of her husband.

After a long time, Wang Meilan didn't get any news from her husband. She decided to go down the mountain overnight,Go to the doctor Li Zhenghao who I knew before to inquire about the situation in person.

After seeing Li Zhenghao, Wang Meilan was told: Boss Li was locked up in a cell of the 51st Division and had already used severe punishment. However, the person is still alive.

Just because Li Zhenghao and Li Liuru had contact with each other, the military and police came to his home to search.

Wang Meilan felt very disturbed when she saw Li Zhenghao's family being affected by her own family. It was Li Zhenghao and his wife who in turn comforted Wang Meilan and wanted to keep her.

Wang Meilan worried that Li Zhenghao would be affected again, so she went back to the mountains overnight.

Later, Wang Meilan decided to find an underground party to rescue her husband. But after running for a few days, there was no result.

After the rescue was hopeless, Wang Meilan had no choice but decided to venture to visit the prison. She thought to herself that even if she died, she would die with her husband Li Liuru.

At this time, the wind outside just loosened a little, and Wang Meilan went back to her home.

Soon after, Wang Meilan inquired about her husband Li Liuru being sentenced to death for being unyielding. They said that as soon as the palindrome of Li Liuru's death sentence arrived, he would be executed.

This makes Wang Meilan distraught. She begged everywhere, hoping to see her husband.

Under Wang Meilan's rush, a kind doctor asked her to visit the prison while the warden was away.

After seeing her husband, Li Liuru said to Wang Meilan who was full of tears: "Don't cry, it's useless to cry. Go get me some paper and pen, I want to appeal."

Wang Meilan nodded. Let the husband relax and don't miss the family. Believe that there will be a day of release from prison.

With the help of the kind doctor, Li Liuru received paper and pen and some meals from Wang Meilan.

Li Liuru soon prepared a plea for Chiang Kai-shek and Jiangxi Provincial Security Commander Xiong Shihui .

In his plea, Li Liuru said that he was not a "prime guilty" and that he should not be convicted of a capital crime according to the law.

At the same time Li Liuru put this plea,I sent it to an old friend more than 10 years ago, Tan Zhen , the vice president of Nanjing Judicial Court, asking for his rescue.

After Qin Zhen received the letter, he mediated it and wrote a letter to Xiong Shihui, trying to rescue Li Liuru.

Later, Wang Meilan took a letter from Zhang Yukun, Li Liuru's former friend of the Nationalist Government, and found the newly appointed warden, and was given the opportunity to send a meal every day.

In order to feed her husband Li Liuru, Wang Meilan sold all the things in the family that could be exchanged for money. I wash clothes for others every day and earn a little money to buy food for my husband. But she herself was so hungry that she lost a lot of weight.

Li Liuru shed tears when he saw his increasingly thin wife, and said with tears: "From now on, you don't have to give me food every day. Save it for you to eat. If you continue like this, you will collapse."

Wang Meilan said to herself It works, as long as the husband can eat better, she can bear any suffering.

Although her life is not good, Wang Meilan still insists on delivering food to her husband every day, and she has changed her way to cook some her husband's favorite dishes.

When it was cold, Wang Meilan worried that her husband would not eat cold food, so she brought a small stove to heat her husband in the aisle of the prison.

Later, a neighbor told Wang Meilan that even if Li Liuru's case did not die, he would still be sentenced to life imprisonment. Wang Meilan is only in her 20s, so this is not the way to go, let's find someone to marry.

The neighbor said that he has shown Wang Meilan a very decent person, and he is still a business owner. As long as Wang Meilan is willing, he can help.

After Wang Meilan heard this, she declined the neighbor's kindness.

Wang Meilan resolutely said: " Even if Boss Li is sentenced to life imprisonment, I will guard him for the rest of my life! "

During Li Liuru's detention for more than two years, Wang Meilan has not forgotten his vow. He has been guarding her husband, serving him food, washing his bloody clothes, and trying his best to rescue him.

After the Xi'an Incident ,Chiang Kai-shek was forced to accept the anti-Japanese alliance with the Communist Party, and the Kuomintang and the Communist Party entered the second stage of cooperation.

In March 1937, Li Liuru was released from prison.

After he was released from prison, Li Liuru was very excited and wrote his vows after Wang Meilan's photo:

My wife Meilan, a native of Gan, has a loyal sex and a strong sense of affection. , Taste hard. When Ji'an was in distress, he had a lot of support. I think it is the most important thing in love. The ancients said: The poor and humble friends should not be forgotten; My friendship with Meilan is in distress, and there is so much chaff, so it hasn't been separated for several years.

"Husband and wife are birds of the same forest, and fly separately when disaster strikes." This is not the case for Wang Meilan to Li Liuru, which truly interprets the unforgettable love.

Li Liuru is also determined to be consistent with his beloved wife and love her wholeheartedly.

In October 1937, under the arrangement of the party, Li Liuru and his beloved wife Wang Meilan moved to Yan'an.

In Yan'an, Chairman Mao cordially received the two of them. And let Li Liuru serve as Chairman Mao’s office secretary and Wang Meilan as office secretary.

In 1938, Li Liuru and his wife Wang Meilan

Before Li Liuru came to Yan'an, Chairman Mao’s office secretary-general was always vacant. Someone asked why Chairman Mao didn’t find a secretary-general. Chairman Mao always Laugh without answering.

In Chairman Mao's heart, this position is reserved exclusively for Li Liuru.

In the autumn of 1939, Wang Meilan got amoebic dysentery , which was more serious.

Because Yan'an lacks medical care and medicine, life is relatively difficult, so Li Liuru used all the little allowance he had to buy herbal medicine.

Li Liuru guards his wife day and night,Give her medicine, feed soup, and wash clothes. Understanding the meticulous care of her husband, Wang Meilan was very moved and felt happy.

Li Liuru tried his best to get a little grain to nourish his wife, but he gnawed at the head.

Wang Meilan saw her husband’s dwindling body and felt uneasy. She said with tears: "You have to take care of yourself. I feel sad to see you doing this for me..."

Li Liuru put her arms around her sick wife , Said distressedly: " can't just let you serve me, I also want to do something for you! "

Li Liuru patted his beloved wife on the back, and said softly: "At the beginning, when I was in trouble, if I didn't You, I’m afraid you are a pile of broken bones, how can you live until now! Now that you are sick, I must take good care of you.”

Later, under Li Liuru’s repeated persuasion, Wang Meilan reluctantly said goodbye After getting married, he left Yan'an and went to the Soviet Union for medical treatment.

Wang Meilan did not expect that due to the war, after going to the Soviet Union, she would not receive any news from her husband in China for three years, and she could not go back to China, which made her feel more tormented.

In 1939, a photo in the Soviet Union. The second from the left in the front row is Wang Meilan.

Li Liuru in China also missed his beloved wife very much. He thought of all the methods he should think, but no results.

During this period, many intellectual young women came to Yan'an, the holy place of revolution. Some cadres in Yan'an also found their favorite girl and got married.

Li Liuru is a senior party cadre with very old qualifications. This makes some intellectual young women pay special attention. People around him also advised him to find another one instead of waiting.

Li Liuru's attitude is very firm. He said: " There are many beautiful women in the world. However, I only have her in my heart and will only wait for her! "

Later, a beautiful female college student listened to Li Liuru's After the speech, I admired him very much. After inquiring about Li Liuru's situation, took the initiative to write him a love letter .

Li Liuru looked at the love letter that the beautiful girl gave him, but what appeared in his mind was the smile of his beloved wife Wang Meilan. He thought of the vows with his lover.

So, Li Liuru politely declined the kindness of the young woman. And suppose that there is already information about the wife. Not long after, the beloved wife will return to China and reunite with him.

After Chairman Mao learned about it, he smiled and said: "In Liuru's heart, only Wang Meilan can pretend to be other people! "

In the spring of 1942, Wang Meilan returned to Yan'an and came to her beloved husband.

Li Liuru looked at his healthy wife, he was very happy, tears blurred his eyes...

Wang Meilan After returning to Yan'an, continued to serve as the secretary of Chairman Mao's office.

In August 1945, Li Liuru took his wife to Jehe and served as a member of the Standing Committee of the Jehol Provincial Party Committee of the Communist Party of China and the Secretary-General of the Jehol Provincial Government.

Later, Li Liuru, who was in his sixties, fell ill due to hard work day and night. Under Wang Meilan's meticulous care, he got better.

In 1946, the Kuomintang troops invaded Rehe, and Li Liuru was forced to evacuate.

In October 1949, at the third meeting of the Central People’s Government Committee, nominated by Chairman Mao, Li Liuru was appointed as the executive deputy procurator of the Supreme People’s Procuratorate to assist Luo Ronghuan. The work of the attorney general.

In 1952, when Li Liuru was the Deputy Prosecutor General, he was entrusted by Chairman Mao and the Party Central Committee. Under tremendous pressure, he resolutely supervised New China's first anti-corruption case and executed Liu Qingshan and Zhang Zishan.

Chairman Mao’s instructions,For Liu and Zhang, kill them if they should be killed, and will never tolerate them!

Two months later, Li Liuru organized and participated in the formulation of the first special law on political corruption, "Regulations of the People's Republic of China on Punishment of Corruption."

Subsequently, the Party Central Committee launched the "Three Antis Movement" accordingly, namely: anti-corruption, anti-waste, and anti-bureaucracy.

During his tenure, Li Liuru often said to people around him: Knowing how to handle cases and handling cases well is a skill that procuratorial cadres must learn, especially leading cadres at all levels.

During the to resist US aggression and aid to North Korea, the North China Military Region Logistics Department allocated a batch of raincoats to the volunteers in North Korea. During the course of use, the soldiers discovered that the quality of the raincoat was seriously unqualified, and there was widespread rain leakage.

After Peng Dehuai knew, he was very angry, and immediately instructed Premier Zhou Enlai to send a telegram, demanding severe investigation and punishment.

This incident caused a very bad social impact. Li Liuru organized a strict investigation based on the content of the report. It was discovered that Tianjin’s unscrupulous capitalist Qiao Mingxun instructed to resort to deception, cut corners, shoddy work, and embezzled military advances to make money.

Under the conclusive evidence, Li Liuru instructed the Tianjin Municipal People’s Procuratorate to prosecute according to law. Finally, the Tianjin People’s Court sentenced Qiao Mingxun to three years imprisonment and confiscated his illegal gains.

In 1954, after Li Liuru retired from the position of party secretary and vice president of the Supreme People's Procuratorate, after more than two years, he completed the first volume of "Sixty Years of Changes".

Li Liuru's reading photos in his later years

Chairman Mao did not expect that Li Liuru would write a 220,000-word autobiographical historical novel in his old age.

In response, Chairman Mao personally instructed to hand over the manuscript to Lin Mohan was responsible for review. In 1957, this novel was published by People's Literature Publishing House.

Later, Li Liuru and Wang Meilan's daughter Hailong went to Tibet alone. In a car accident, Hailong, who was only a teenager, died tragically on a snowy plateau.

After receiving the news, Li Liuru and his wife fell into extreme grief. With Wang Meilan's spiritual comfort and dietary care, Li Liuru gradually recovered a little.

Li Liuru has unspeakable gratitude for his exhausted wife Wang Meilan.

Soon after returning to Beijing, Li Liuru fell ill again. On April 10, 1973, 86-year-old Li Liuru died of illness.

His wife Wang Meilan said: "Just when he was about to die, he took my hand and tried his last bit of strength to call Chairman Mao, Premier Zhou...When I found the pictures of the chairman and the prime minister, he was unconscious... When he saw me alone by the bed, he shed two lines of tears and slowly closed his eyes..."

People who know their past say that Li Liuru and Wang Meilan are a loving couple who share weal and woe. Their love is unforgettable and loyal, and is a "generational style."
