Wake up（305）

 

305

 

In the "Juyi Hall" of the small hotel, Xiao Kongming and Li Si reunited with Wang Wu, Hua Runmei, San Pang and Ma Suya, very happy. Wang Wu and San Pang were Li Si's good friends when they were young, and the only regret was that Nanshan Yun didn't come. However, Nanshanyun's sister Nanliwa and brother Nanyangsheng arrived, and Nanyangsheng also brought his girlfriend Wanru, which can make up for some regrets.

Nan Yangsheng returned to his hometown this time mainly to visit his family, but he did not expect that his grandfather and mother had already passed away. Although he has not been able to find his missing brother Nanshan Yun, he has met his sister Nanliwa. He is very grateful to his friends Cheng Yenan and Sun Aijun who accompanied him to find relatives.

These young men and women who have been in pairs gather together, and joy and laughter are naturally indispensable. No matter how rotten the world is, the vitality of youth will not end there.

In this group of young people, Kong Ming and Li Si, who are eloquent and knowledgeable, are naturally a protagonist. Li Si was the king of children when he was a child. His mother said that Li Si was a piece of stinky bacon, and flies would fly around wherever he put it.

Li Si is very smart, but he has not fallen into a relationship, because he has chosen the life principle of not being in love, not getting married, not having children, and not lying down. He does not get involved in political struggles, but his study of politics exceeds that of his peers. He is not obsessed with He is more interested in love games, but has his own unique insights into the analysis of love.

Li Si said to his young friends: We are all young, and young people are the age to talk about marriage. Boys should be married when they are colleges, and girls should be the masters of the family. This is the basic principle for the continuation of human beings. But the marriage system with the most Chinese characteristics was bumped after the founding of the Communist Party. It was the Soviet-Russian-style communist marriage system. Marriage also had to be political, and the relationship between "political husband and wife" was enforced. Nowadays, to be a son-in-law of a high-ranking official, he must be a son-in-law who will take the lead and make a fortune. A young woman is also full of happiness to be a mistress of a high-ranking official. Check the family relationship of senior leaders in China, and you will find that nepotism among senior officials is all about kinship.

Li Si said: The marriage between Mao Zedong and Jiang Qing is the most typical political couple. It is not surprising that senior Chinese officials have experienced the baptism of remarriage and remarriage. This is also the case in the West. But marrying for politics, marrying for revolution, and having children for producing red offspring and successors of communism, that is a miracle in the history of human reproduction. In order to protect Mao and suppress Jiang, the official media always said that Lao Mao once severely criticized his remarried wife Jiang Qing, warned her not to engage in the "Gang of Four", and put Jiang Qing on the opposite side of Lao Mao. What is the truth?

During the Cultural Revolution, the central government's personnel power was always in the hands of Lao Mao alone, and only what he said could count. At the beginning of 1975, Zhou Enlai was terminally ill. After Mao Zedong let Deng Xiaoping come back, he appointed Deng Xiaoping as the vice chairman of the Central Military Commission and the chief of staff of the Chinese People's Liberation Army; he was elected as the vice chairman of the CPC Central Committee and a member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee; His original intention of bringing Deng Xiaoping back was to replace Zhou Enlai.

But Jiang Qing was very dissatisfied with this. Jiang Qing's repeated turmoil somewhat disrupted Lao Mao's deployment of replacing Zhou with Deng, and Zhang Chunqiao, Yao Wenyuan, and Wang Hongwen rushed to help, which further exposed the Cultural Revolution faction's fearlessness and disregard for the overall situation. This forced Lao Mao to criticize them to a certain extent. However, after the "Gang of Four" collapsed, the officials vigorously exaggerated and exaggerated this limited criticism as Lao Mao's "last will" to "shatter the Gang of Four" two years later. This statement is actually very absurd.

"Mao Zedong's Manuscripts Since the Founding of the People's Republic of China" officially included Mao Zedong's letters to Jiang Qing or his approval on Jiang Qing's letters. The personal letter to Jiang Qing or the approval document to Jiang Qing's letter in the "Manuscript" should be the least scheming and the most sincere. "Manuscript" contains a total of five letters from Lao Mao to Jiang Qing in 1974, and a total of three paragraphs of Lao Mao's approval in Jiang Qing's letter to him. It can be seen from this that Lao Mao has emotions, but it is only a grievance between husband and wife, and he does not treat her as a different person. For example, on February 9, Lao Mao wrote on the material envelope sent by Jiang Qing: "Except for a few, most of them have not read it. The temperature has risen by two degrees recently. It is a serious illness! Everyone has disappeared. Now it is recovering. If you have anything to do, you should contact politics. Bureau." It means "I'm not in good health, don't bother me, if you have something to say, go to the Politburo meeting!"

A letter from Lao Mao to Jiang Qing on March 20: "It's better not to see. I have talked with you for many years, and you have not implemented it. What's the use of seeing more? There are Marxism-Leninism books and mine, but you just don't study them. .I am seriously ill, and I am eighty-one years old. I don’t understand. You have privileges. I’m dead. What should you do? You are also a person who doesn’t discuss big things, but gives small things every day. Please consider.” This is Lao Mao A very emotional letter. Lao Mao refused to see her, why? Who can figure it out.

The key words in this paragraph are: "You have privileges, what will you do if I die?" What privileges does Jiang Qing have? A fox pretends to be a tiger, and has nothing to fear. Regardless of the overall situation, ignorant of strategy, supercilious, go its own way. Lao Mao is obviously worried about her, hating her for being ignorant, hating that iron can't be made into steel, which is a kind of disappointment and worry for her family.

Mao's letter to Jiang Qing on March 27: "It is my opinion that Comrade Deng Xiaoping's going abroad is my opinion. You should not object to it. Be careful and do not object to my proposal."

Twenty days later, on April 17, Lao Mao wrote two more letters to Jiang Qing.

One: "Two letters received. Inconsistency. The general trend of the party is good, pessimism is not good. Don't waver. The future is bright, but the road is tortuous. More than 95% of the people must be united. Don't be subjective. (Face). Pay attention. Too many complaints to prevent heartbreak, long-term prosperity should (look) in the eye. Don’t ask for leave. Money can be increased slightly, and unlimited scenery is on the dangerous peak.” From Lao Mao’s letter, it can be seen that Jiang Qing’s letter is He complained, expressed some kind of pessimism and disappointment, and even expressed his intention to drop the pick. We see Lao Mao's tender side to Jiang Qing, and see his worry, encouragement and teaching to his family. This letter can be said to truly reflect Lao Mao's feelings, attitudes and understanding of Jiang Qing.

The second: "Both letters have been received, and spring breeze willows have been received. The latter letter retreats, don't. The future is bright, and the road is tortuous. Don't be subjective and one-sided. Get more rest. It seems inappropriate to take a long vacation." This letter is old Written by Mao on the same day, the letter may have never been sent.

On October 19, Jiang Qing wrote another letter to Lao Mao. Lao Mao replied the next day: "I have read it, please be cautious. Pay attention to uniting comrades with different opinions."

On the 23rd, Jiang Qing wrote a letter to Lao Mao, reporting her visit to Tianjin to hold a meeting to criticize Lin Piao and Confucius and her visit to Xiaojinzhuang, and asked to return to Beijing after arriving at Shengli Oilfield. Lao Mao replied in her letter the next day: "You can extend the time to do some research work, you don't understand the lives of the masses."

Both of the above two replies were meant to criticize Jiang Qing's shortcomings, but both showed concern and love. Jiang Qing's activities, including her whereabouts, must be reported to Lao Mao for instructions, which shows that they are closely related.

On November 12, Jiang Qing wrote to Lao Mao, putting forward her suggestions on the personnel arrangement of the Fourth National People's Congress. Lao Mao wrote in her letter on the same day: "Don't show up too much, don't approve documents, don't let you form a cabinet (as the backstage boss), you have a lot of grievances, and you must unite the majority. My advice." "People need to know themselves. And again."

Not long before, Jiang Qing made a fuss in the Politburo and broke up with Deng Xiaoping. Jiang Qing was so ignorant of the general situation and disregarded the overall situation, which made Lao Mao feel annoyed, embarrassed, and disappointed. Writing this comment, Lao Mao is obviously out of anger. But these criticisms are not hostile, they are all truthful, and they hit the core of Jiang Qing's nature. Zhengyan also.

On November 19, Jiang Qing wrote a letter to Lao Mao, appealing that he said, "Since the Ninth National Congress, I have basically been an idler, and I have not been assigned any work, and now it is even worse." Lao Mao replied the next day: "Readable Li Gu wrote to Huang Qiong. As far as ideological articles are concerned, they are all good articles. Your job is to study domestic and foreign dynamics, which is already a big task. I have told you about this many times, don’t say that there is no work. Here Ask."

Li Si said:

"Leaving Huang Qiongshu" is a letter written by Li Gu, a minister of the Eastern Han Dynasty. During the Yongjian period of Emperor Shun of the Han Dynasty (126), Huang Qiong, who had repeatedly refused to be recruited, was recruited by the court again. When he walked to the Longevity Pavilion not far from the capital of the Lun family, he suddenly said that he was ill. The Wansui Pavilion is located in the northwest of Dengfeng County, Henan Province. According to legend, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty climbed Songshan Mountain and heard three shouts of Longevity from the mountain, so it was named. Li Gu had always admired Huang Qiong, so he wrote this letter urging him to come to Luoyang as soon as possible.

Li Si interpreted "Yi Huang Qiong Shu" in vernacular:

The content of "Yi Huang Qiong Shu" is roughly as follows:

I heard that you have crossed Yishui River and Luoshui River and came to the Longevity Pavilion not far from the capital. Could it be that your application has made some progress and you are preparing to accept the appointment of the king? Therefore, Mencius once thought: "Bo Yi's practice of starving to death in Shouyang Mountain without eating Zhou millet is too narrow, and Liu Xiahui's behavior of not resigning after being demoted three times when he was a doctor in Lu State is too self-respecting." Therefore, Xie The "Fa Yan" of the classics said: "To be an official, you should neither be too lofty like Boyi, nor be as self-deprecating as Liu Xiahui. You should adopt a moderate attitude between the two." The attitude of dealing with people that the ancient sages and sages cherished! If you are really willing to pursue a life of seclusion with mountains as your pillow and valleys as your house, and emulate Chaofu and Xu You's supernatural seclusion, then of course you can refuse to be recruited; if you think you should come out to assist If the emperor wants to save the people, then now is a good time to participate in political affairs. Ever since there were human beings in the world, politics in society has always been less good and more bad. If we have to wait until a wise monarch like Yao and Shun comes out, then as a person with lofty ideals who govern the world, he will never have a day in politics .

I once heard an old saying: "Slender things are easy to break, and white things are easy to pollute." There must be very few people who can sing along with elegant tunes like "Yangchun" and "White Snow". For a person with a great reputation, his reality is hardly commensurate with his reputation. Recently, when Fan Ying of Luyang arrived in the capital after being recruited by the emperor, the imperial court built a high platform for him, set up seats, and received him like a god. Although he didn't show anything very strange, his speech and behavior could follow certain norms, and there were no flaws or mistakes. However, words of slander and slander against Fan Ying spread, and his reputation suddenly declined. Isn't it because everyone's impression of him is too deep and expectations are too high, and his reputation is too great? Recently, the imperial court has recruited celebrities, such as Hu Anyuan, Xue Mengchang, Zhu Zhongzhao, Gu Jihong, etc., and their achievements as officials have nothing to recommend them. Therefore, public opinion says that these reclusive people are those who specialize in stealing fame. Incapable people. I hope, sir, that you can make great achievements and make amazing achievements, and use it to completely wash away the shame these words have brought to celebrities!

Li Si explained:

"Yi Huang Qiong Shu" is clearly divided into two sections by natural paragraphs. The first paragraph is to urge Huang Qiong to apply; the second paragraph is to express high hopes for him. Although the meaning of the two paragraphs is to persuade Huang Qiong to come out and serve the current situation, they are not just urging; and there are tactful warnings in the exhortation.

The first paragraph sets out two ways out for Huang Qiong: either you live in seclusion completely and don't ask about personnel affairs; There is a hint of "provocative method" in this paragraph: If you want to "imitate the nest, you", you shouldn't be recruited on the road; Dao Tuo was ill. Not to advance is nothing more than scruples about the chaos of the current situation; and if the politics is clear and the world is in order, there will be no need for people with lofty ideals, and such urging will be much more motivating than blindly urging.

The warning in the second paragraph is even stronger. "Under the great name, it is actually difficult to live up to" is not only a comment on those who have already conquered, but also has the meaning of giving Huang Qiong encouragement and vigilance. To put it bluntly, the meaning of this paragraph is that if you are a person who steals your name (of course Li Gu thinks that Huang Qiong is not such a person, otherwise he would not write a letter to urge you), then it doesn't matter if you don't come out; If you want to come out, you should really make a difference, prove with facts that "there is no one worthy of the name", make contributions to the country, and stop the mouth of "vulgar theory". At that time, there were too many people who were "pure thieves". Although Li Gu admired Huang Qiong for a long time, because of the lessons of those celebrities who were not worthy of the name, before Huang Qiong had not shown grand scale and far-reaching performance, Li Gu Gu can't help but have uneasy doubts. Therefore, the unpopular fact of enumerating the previous conquerors is a revelation of his deeply touched true feelings. It has to be twists and turns.

Li Si added:

The whole article contains not only gentle and ironic persuasion, but also sobering encouragement. The writing is mostly sidelined and hypothetical and guessing sentences, which are euphemistic and tortuous, moving and moving. Huang Qiong later came to Luoyang to serve as Yilang, and this letter played a role in promoting.

Why did Lao Mao reply to Jiang Qing and asked her to read Li Gu's book to Huang Qiong?

Because Jiang Qing was complaining to Lao Mao that he had no job or power. After the Ninth National Congress, Jiang Qing entered the Politburo, but there was no division of labor to arrange specific tasks. This is a fact. Why? Not sure. Was Lin Biao and Zhou Enlai deliberately restricting her, or was it Lao Mao's intention? Also unclear. Lao Mao said, "Your job is to study domestic and foreign developments." In other words, Jiang Qing is required to monitor the political trends of the central government while grasping the domestic and foreign situations. This is a special job that cannot be replaced by others. Others are afraid of her, can't provoke her, and are obsequious in front of her, but they are actually afraid of Lao Mao. Others also regard her as Lao Mao's supervisor. Lao Mao has no one who really believes in the high-level CCP. If there is one, then it can only be Jiang Qing. The Cultural Revolution was the work of the conjoined body of Mao and Jiang, and the work of Mao Jiang's husband-and-wife shop.

Li Gu (94-147), courtesy name Zijian, was born in Nanzheng, Hanzhong (now Nanzheng, Shaanxi). During the reign of Emperor Shun of the Han Dynasty, countermeasures were emphasized, and he was Yilang. He has successively served as governor of Jingzhou, general master craftsman, and chief minister of agriculture. Chongdi Shiguan to Taiwei. After being framed by Liang Ji, he was imprisoned and died. There are eleven chapters, including Shu Biao Zou Yi, among which "Yi Huang Qiong Shu" is the most famous, among which "the ones that are poor are easy to be missing, and the ones that are dirty are easy to be dirty. The songs of Yangchun, those who are harmonious must be few. Under the famous name, it is actually difficult to match", etc. sentence, so far spread the population. The original collection of twelve volumes has been lost.

Lao Mao asked Jiang Qing to read Li Gu's book to Huang Qiong, which seemed to be criticizing Jiang Qing, but actually revealed Lao Mao's trust, love and expectation for her.

Lao Mao just warned Jiang Qing: "Those who are tall and bright are easy to be missing, and those who are bright and bright are easy to be dirty. Bright and clean things are easily stained, and there must be very few people who can sing with such an elegant song "Yangchun Baixue". A famous person may not be able to match his reputation. Let her not be isolated because of her aloofness, aloofness, and excellence, and break away from the majority.

In Lao Mao's letter to Jiang Qing, and in the approval of Jiang Qing's letter, he never criticized Jiang Qing for engaging in a "small sect", let alone words such as "Gang of Four".

Lao Mao and Jiang Qing are political couples, and there is no evidence that Lao Mao wants to beat his wife.
