Li Hongzhang's grandson knows Li Hongzhang's family background in detail.
Descendants of Li Hongzhang
As a courtier, Li Hongzhang tried his best to take care of his brothers and relatives, which was understandable at that time. Because a person's strength is limited, and the logistics or westernization of the Huai army are also assured by relatives, so as to ensure the survival of Li Hongzhang's clique.

Shortly after Li Hongzhang signed the Treaty of Xin Chou, his eldest son, Li Jingshu, died in mourning. Only Li Jingmai, Li Hongzhang's youngest son, inherited the power of the Li family. Li Hongzhang was very fond of his youngest son, so Li Jingmai was appointed as the minister of Austria-Hungary and the right assistant minister of civil affairs by Li Hongzhang's Yu government. Li Jingmai is the person who understands his father best, so he once appealed for his father, deeply regretting that he had wronged others and trusted the court.
Li Hongzhang was very depressed when he signed treaty of shimonoseki. Only his eldest grandson Li Guojie eased his mood a little. Very famous, and became good friends with warlord Duan and others. He held a high position in the Beiyang period and the early Republic of China, and held the China Merchants Bureau for a long time. He was generous, had close contacts with Du Fu, and helped people with lofty ideals to resist Japan. After Chiang Kai-shek came to power, due to the Westernization Movement and the legacy of Manchu Dynasty, Li Guojie had a bad relationship with Chiang Kai-shek and failed to see through the overall political situation. Shortly after Japan invaded China, he was assassinated by Chiang Kai-shek.
With the death of Li Guojie and the Japanese invasion of China, Li Hongzhang's great-grandchildren gradually declined, or remained anonymous or learned to be officials. Most of them lived in Shanghai or Hefei, Anhui. In modern China, Li Hongzhang's descendants were mostly Taoist priests and immortals.
Thanks to a gentleman, the third son was beheaded. This old saying has been fully fulfilled in the descendants of Li Hongzhang. Since Li Hongzhang, they no longer have the pride of nobility, and live for themselves by their own academic qualifications and knowledge.

Li Hongzhang's name is widely known, but we know little about his descendants. Among many descendants of Li Hongzhang, his eldest grandson is also an influential figure, and this person is Li Guojie.
Li Jingshu, the eldest son of Li Guojie Li Hongzhang, is the son of Li Jingshu. Because his father Li Jingshu died shortly after Li Hongzhang's death, he inherited his grandfather's marquis position, so he was called the Duke. Li Guojie held a high position not only in the Qing government, but also in the Beiyang government, until he was shot by the military during the National Government.
Due to the influence of Li Hongzhang, Li Guojie still had great influence in the Qing government. He was always a senior official, which was influenced by Li Hongzhang's relationship. During the Beiyang government, many senior officials in the government were old students of their grandfather, so during the Beiyang government, Li Guojie also served as a counselor.
In the period of the National Government, Li Guojie's position began to be unstable, because his grandfather's relationship had gradually lost its effectiveness, and the National Government also began to attach importance to its shippers, resulting in huge contradictions between the two sides, so they began to compete with the company.

Finally, the National Government discovered Li Guojie's proof of corruption, and began to sue the court. However, the means used by Li Guojie led to a long delay in the case, and the verdict was not announced until two years later. After the verdict, Chiang Kai-shek had to be released because of Duan's presence.
Later, when War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression broke out, Li Guojie stayed in Shanghai. These old people want to have a maintenance meeting. It is said that Li Guojie wanted to be president, so military spies assassinated him in Shanghai. However, whether this accusation is true or not has not been verified yet.
