1908, Wu Zhiying, a former friend, buried his body beside Xiling Bridge in Hangzhou West Lake. Due to the court's forced relocation, his son Wang Yuande moved his tomb to Zhaoshan, Xiangtan in the autumn of the first year of Xuantong (1909).
19 12 years, Hunan people built the Qiu Jin Martyrs' Temple in Changsha, and Hunan and Zhejiang provinces agreed to send their bodies to Zhejiang and rebury the original cemetery of West Lake. Later generations compiled Qiu Jin Collection. Qiu Jin was born in Xiamen, Fujian and grew up in Shaoxing, Zhejiang. 1895 years old, she followed her father Qiu Shounan, an official, to Xiangtan County, Hunan Province. Qiu Shounan met Wang Diancheng, the richest man in Xiangtan and Zeng Guofan's cousin. Seeing that Qiu Jin was beautiful, dignified, smart and lovely, Wang asked the matchmaker to send a gift to his son to propose marriage. Qiu Jin was not satisfied with this marriage, but in feudal society, children's marriage could only be done according to parents' orders and matchmakers' words. 1On April 20th, 896, Qiu Jin was greeted by colorful sedan chairs of the Wangs.
Although Wang Jiafu was extravagant, Qiu Jin, who was lofty and strong-willed, didn't like the pampered life and couldn't stand the bondage of feudal families. Her husband, Wang Tingjun, is two years younger than himself and has nothing in common with him in hobbies. She sighed: "Qin and harp have different tastes, but the couple don't get along very well." Wang Tingjun is not good at reading, and he doesn't do his business. He idles, eats, drinks and plays every day. At that time, at the end of the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895, the Qing government and Japan signed the "treaty of shimonoseki", which was strongly opposed by the people all over the country. Qiu Jin often advised her husband, "Every man is responsible for the rise and fall of the world. You should study hard, think about the future prosperity of the country and think about your personal future. " However, Wang Tingjun said, "The imperial court can only cede land for compensation, and we ordinary people have no responsibility." On another occasion, they talked about Tan Sitong, and Qiu Jin praised him for dying for the benefit of the country and the nation. He is a great reformer. On the other hand, Wang Tingjun cursed Tan Sitong as a scum of China disorderly party and scholars. In order not to compromise, they almost quarreled. Qiu Jin was in great pain. She wrote in a poem: "Poor thing, don't marry Bao to join the army." Expressed her dissatisfaction with Wang Tingjun.
Qiu Jin spent six or seven years in the lotus pond and Xiangtan, Hunan Province, and gave birth to a son and a daughter. Although Wang Jiasheng has a good life, he has nothing in common with the people around him and is extremely depressed. Emotionally, she tried her best to exclude Wang Tingjun and scoffed at his words and deeds. The latter was repeatedly left out in the cold, unable to compete, so he found another gentle hometown, lingered in the Chu Museum, and climbed high to advocate smelting leaves. The world used to be strange, but people often hold double standards when commenting on the same thing. Wang Tingjun is not a great revolutionary like Cai Songpo, nor is he a handsome celebrity Su Like Schumann. He slept with Liuliu, and his affair became obscene.
Qiu Jin detests evil, and dislikes the vulgar custom of men keeping concubines and the lewdness of prostitutes on weekdays. According to Feng Ziyou's Anecdotal History of the Revolution, Chen Fan, a native of Hunan, was rich and took his second concubine powder and Fang Xin to Japan to have tea and read foreign books, which was very pleasant. How can Qiu Jin get used to his virtue? She thinks that the arrogance of Chen Fan's concubinage has tarnished the reputation of her compatriots, so she tries her best to help Xiangfen and Fang Xin get rid of Chen Fan's control and become independent from now on. Later, cynical Chen Fan betrothed her daughter Chen Xiefen to Liao, a wealthy businessman in Guangdong, and Qiu Jin publicly opposed it and ruined the marriage. According to Xu's "Anecdote of Qiu Jin", on one occasion, when they were traveling together in Shanghai and having a tea nap, Qiu Jin saw an international student coming by car with a child prostitute. She is so frivolous in this beautiful land that she can't stand it. She immediately went forward and gave him a good lesson in Japanese. The man was very clever and left soon. Seeing this, Xu could not help joking that Qiu Jin's wanton intervention was "a real disaster". Qiu Jin readily replied: "I am like a fish in my throat. I can't spit quickly!"
1903, the Wangs donated a householder position for Wang Tingjun in Beijing, and Qiu Jin moved to Beijing with her husband and lived in Rope Craftsman Hutong. When Qiu Jin first arrived in Beijing, he was a stranger and unaccustomed to life. He often sighs: "Because he lives in seclusion, he has few bosom friends and people feel bored." Later, she moved to Nanban Street Hutong, where she met Wu Zhiying, the wife of Wang Tingjun colleague Lian Quan. Even the couple are more open-minded and admire Dr. Sun Yat-sen, and they are very accomplished in literature and calligraphy. Qiu and Wu soon became bosom friends.
Qiu Jin's revolutionary ambition and ideal not only failed to get her husband's understanding and support, but was reprimanded by her husband: "This is a man's business. Don't think about it." Qiu Jin did not show weakness: "I want to seek the truth, and women also have the responsibility to save the country and the people." The two men quarreled with each other. Wang Tingjun knew that Qiu Jin was a stubborn woman, and it was impossible to persuade her. She had to take despicable measures, stole all her jewelry and savings in Qiu Jin, in an attempt to stop her from going to Japan. Qiu Jin said angrily, "You can steal my money, but you can't restrain my determination to study abroad." Qiu Jin sold his remaining property and clothes, and with the support of Wu Zhiying and others, he went to Japan alone on April 1904, taking a crucial step in his life.
In Japan, Qiu Jin made friends with many young people who were motivated to explore the revolutionary truth, organized "* * * Love Society", joined the secret anti-Qing group "Three Youth League", met with Sun Yat-sen, joined the League with Huang Xing, Yu Peilun and others, and actively ran for saving the country and the people. For these, Wang Tingjun has heard and strongly opposed them, and the distance between their thoughts is getting farther and farther. Qiu Jin has been in Japan for three years, and they have never written to each other. The relationship between husband and wife exists in name only. /kloc-in the winter of 0/906, Qiu Jin heard the news of Wang Tingjun's concubinage, but he was very happy and felt that he had a reason to leave Wang Tingjun. So she wrote a letter to her eldest brother Qiu, asking him to handle the divorce on his behalf. Qiu ran several times, but the divorce failed because of her obstruction.
1907 Spring, Qiu Jin returned from Japan. In order to contact the Guangfu Association, Hongjiang Association and plan the Pingli Uprising, she disguised as a man and went to Changsha to live with a friend. People call her "Uncle Qiu". At that time, she went to Wang Tingjun's house to visit her children. The Wangs thought that she had come back from the end of the road, changed their minds, received her warmly, and hoped to marry his wife for the second time. But she was spying in case she ran away again. Qiu Jin made an excuse to go out to the theatre, slipped out through the back door and took a boat along the Xiangjiang River. Qiu Jin's trip to Xiangtan was her farewell to the Wangs.
Qiu Jin's complete works, such as the poem "I'm going to Shanghai to send dust" (four chapters): "When I left, I was given a new poem, which is more important to your family: I wouldn't be a ninja if I didn't sing" Yangguan ",and I was sad because it was useless. Explanation:1In May, 906, Qiu Jin left Xunxi Girls' School and went to Shanghai. When he left, Xu and his classmates sent him to the river. When leaving, Qiu Jin wrote these four poems, and his sister Xu also wrote a farewell poem. Another example is the poem "Ancient Meaning": "No one in the Golden House sees tears, and it is like a dream. The autumn wind donates fans, and the snow falls on the earth and abandons his wife. " Commentary: 1903 After the summer, Qiu Jin and her husband Wang Tingjun often clashed, and Qiu Jin left in a fit of pique. Wang Tingjun wants to marry a concubine, but Qiu Jin certainly opposes it. Her heart ached and she felt abandoned. This poem expresses her sad mood through ancient meaning. 1907, in order to effectively publicize women's liberation and mobilize women to unite and take part in the struggle, she decided to set up a magazine-China Women's Daily, which is convenient for ordinary women to read, and proposed that the founding purpose was to "open up the atmosphere, advocate women's studies, unite feelings, form groups, establish the foundation of China Women's Federation and create another day".
Qiu Jin devoted a lot of energy to this issue, and published articles and poems in these two issues, such as China Women's Reports, Dear Sisters, Nursing Tutorial and Encouraging Women's Rights. She said in the article "Your Sisters":
"alas! 200,000 men have entered the new civilized world, and my 200,000 female compatriots are still sinking in eighteen layers of hell and don't want to climb up. Small feet and bare hair; Flower, bud, tie, embed and wear; Silk, satin, rolling, coiling and finishing; The powder is white and the fat is red. I only know that I rely on men all my life, and I rely on men for food and clothing. Children who are soft and smooth, angry and abusive are bored, and tears often drip down. Life is a knot of Baba: a prisoner for life, an ox and a horse for half a life. I want to ask my sisters, have you ever eaten some freedom and happiness in your life? "
She was saddened by the fact that the majority of women had not realized at that time, and hoped that women would not be content with their fate, but determined to gain the ability of economic self-reliance in order to get rid of slavery and fight for women's rights. It is said that after reading these articles, many women were moved to tears and began to think deeply.
Qiu Jin attached great importance to women's unity and struggle, and she tried to set up China Women's Newspaper as the basis of "uniting feelings, forming a group and creating China Women's Federation for another day". She also closely linked the feminist struggle with the liberation of the whole country and nation, and called on women to share the responsibility with men in the struggle to overthrow the Qing Dynasty. She wrote in the song Song of Women's Rights:
We love and encourage freedom. Have a glass of wine. Men and women are equally talented, so why not stay behind the cows?
I am willing to extricate myself and wash away the shame of the past. If you are a colleague, you can restore your hands.
Old habits are the most shameful, and women are even like cattle and horses. Dawn of new civilization, independence first.
May slaves be eradicated and knowledge and learning be experienced. The responsibility lies with the shoulders, and the national women's excellent period is not negative.
As a pioneer of the feminist movement, she called on women to "liberate", participate in the anti-Qing revolutionary struggle and create "natural hands" in the cause of national liberation.
After the publication of the second issue of China Women's Newspaper in March of that year, Qiu Jin was busy preparing for the armed uprising and had to drop out of school because of financial difficulties. /kloc-in June of 0/7, she said in a letter to a friend that the edited third issue of the magazine "will be printed about this month". But in July of 13, Qiu Jin was arrested because of the failure of the armed uprising, and was killed by the Qing court in Xuantingkou, Shaoxing, at the age of 3 1. Although China Women's Daily was only published twice, it had a great social impact and left a glorious page in the history of women's movement in China.
