As we all know, He Zizhen is Chairman Mao’s third wife, but she is still known as “Yongxin Yizhihua”, or the first female party member on Jinggangshan , and an outstanding pioneer of women. He Zizhen’s life is full of legendary colors and hardships.

Hisan and Chairman Mao were the ten years of being together. He Zizhen was the most difficult decade of the revolution and the most difficult decade for Chairman Mao personally. After experiencing the dangers of the Long March, He Zizhen arrived in northern Shaanxi. On the Long March, in order to cover the wounded, He Zizhen was exposed to 17 shrapnel and could not be removed.

Chairman Mao insisted on carrying He Zizhen to finish the Long March. After arriving in northern Shaanxi, He Zizhen was injured and unable to do the job. She could not stand the life of "eating and drinking for free". At that time, many young intellectuals went to Yan'an to participate in the revolution, and there were also many young women. Chairman Mao was very enthusiastic about them.

He Zizhen felt that she was neglected and misunderstood Chairman Mao. In the winter of 1937, He Zizhen left Yan'an in anger. Chairman Mao persuaded him many times but failed. In the end, He Zizhen lived in the Soviet Union for nearly 10 years and suffered many hardships. In order to comfort He Zizhen, Chairman Mao sent his daughter Li Min to her.

In the Soviet Union, He Zizhen gradually began to reflect on her behavior, and she also made some changes. He Zizhen learned about perm of Soviet women and wore skirts. She even took the initiative to sign up to learn dancing. When she was in Yan'an, He Zizhen was disgusted with women dancing. After the change of

, He Zizhen was radiant. She was already handsome and even more beautiful after dressing up. Many people still pursued her. Until August 1947, with the help of her friend Wang Jiaxiang and his wife, and with the consent of Chairman Mao, He Zizhen returned to China with the children.

The organization considered giving her more rest, and He Zizhen immediately made two requests. The first was to want to work, and the second was to see Chairman Mao. The organization quickly met her first requirement. He Zizhen was arranged to serve as the Party Secretary in the Northeast Financial Agency.

And her second requirement was not implemented until 12 years later. After the national liberation, He Zizhen went to Shanghai to live. In 1950, He Zizhen was identified as a Class A disabled soldier of Level 3, but she had never received a pension and had always lived on her own. Many people may wonder why He Zizhen did not remarry?

In fact, He Zizhen also considered remarriage. According to He Zizhen's granddaughter, Kong Dongmei, the daughter of Li Min and Kong Linghua, He Zizhen had considered remarriage. Kong Dongmei told this in the book "Opening My Old Photo Collection: My Grandfather Mao Zedong in My Heart".

He Zizhen was glorious after learning to dance. With her beautiful melon-shaped face, she looked very young. There were indeed many gay men who had pursued her. He Zizhen also had a longing for new biochemistry, but she wanted to ask her daughter Li Min for her opinion, although Li Min was only 11 years old at that time.

He Zizhen told her daughter about this, and He Zizhen asked, "Jiaojiao, is it okay for mom to find you a father?" The young Li Min immediately shouted "No", just two words, plus her daughter's fierce reaction, He Zizhen gave up the idea of ​​remarrying, and after crying, she completely gave up this idea.

According to the book, Li Min grew up and regretted that she did not care about her mother's feelings at that time. Li Min also understood the difficulty of her mother. Kong Dongmei also revealed that He Zizhen's sister He Yi tried to persuade Chairman Mao to restore her relationship with He Zizhen, but she failed.

Since then, He Zizhen has lived alone. Chairman Mao often asked his daughter Li Min to visit and accompany He Zizhen. In 1959, Chairman Mao met He Zizhen in Lushan. After 22 years, the two met again. He Zizhen couldn't help crying for a long time, and the two never met again since then.
