"Don't want to go to du province when I was alive. Why are the ashes buried in Taiwan Province Province?
Chiang Kai-shek tried to invite Du to Taiwan Province Province.
1949 In March, Chiang Kai-shek invited Du to Nanjing and told him: "Shanghai seems to be difficult to hold. Mr. Du should be prepared to take his family to Taiwan Province Province when necessary to help the party and the country revive the great cause. "
Du didn't promise or refuse, but vaguely replied, "I'm going to give up the retrogression after Shanghai."
Smart as Du knew, his relationship with Chiang Kai-shek was cracked. He really went to Taiwan Province Province alone with Chiang Kai-shek, and there was nothing to eat. So, instead of staying in the mainland or going to Taiwan Province Province, he moved his family to Hongkong. On May 1949 and 1 day, a Dutch passenger ship "Bao" set off from Shanghai and took the Du family to Hong Kong, which is known as the "free port".
Du Yuesheng plays this chess game very well. At that time, Hong Kong was neither the world of the * * * production party nor the territory of Chiang Kai-shek. Du came to Hong Kong, whether it is the * * * production party or Chiang Kai-shek, will not offend. Moreover, the environment in Hong Kong is relatively relaxed, so Du can wait until the current situation is clear before deciding the next step.
After arriving in Hong Kong, Du lived in Du Mansion, Kennedy Town 18.
When Du lived in Hong Kong, he did a very happy thing, that is, he married Meng Xiaodong, a famous Peking Opera actor. Meng Xiaodong is Du's fifth and last wife.
At this time, Du was over 60 years old and Xiaodong Meng was over 40 years old. At the wedding, Du asked all the children to kneel down to Meng Xiaodong and called him "Mommy".
However, Du's health went from bad to worse. Du Yuesheng has been suffering from asthma. After arriving in Hong Kong, perhaps due to the influence of environment, mood and other factors, his asthma became more and more serious. Du invited the best doctor in Hong Kong for treatment at that time. However, no matter how clever the doctor is, he can't save Du's life. His life gradually came to an end. ...
1951August 16 in the afternoon, Du died in Hong Kong after properly handling the aftermath.
Before his death, Du left a will to return to his hometown of Gao Qiao, Pudong. However, this wish has not come true. The domestic environment at that time basically put an end to the possibility of Du's body returning to the mainland.
Then, why did Du's ashes go to Taiwan Province Province?
This is related to Du's fourth wife.
Yao Yulan is famous. Her father is a famous Peking Opera clown "Seven Lamps", and he is also a famous Peking Opera actor. From 65438 to 0928, Du paid attention to his performance with his mother Xiao Lanying and his sister in Shanghai. Du Yuesheng seized Yao Yulan and Yao Yuying by force. A week later, Yao Yuying died, and Yao Yulan entered Du Yuesheng's home alone and became Du Yuesheng's fourth wife.
When Du died in Hong Kong, he was surrounded by four wives, namely, the third wife, Sun Peihao, the fourth wife and the fifth wife, Meng Xiaodong. After Du's funeral, Sun Peihao went to England and Meng Xiaodong stayed in Hong Kong. After careful consideration, it was decided to take Du's ashes to provincial Taiwan.
