Gao was a famous political activist in early the Communist Party of China (CPC) and one of the founders of Shanxi Party Organization. Shi Pingmei was a famous progressive writer in the 1920s, and was praised as "writing mourning with the pen of flowers".
Gao was born in Fenglingdi Village (now loufan county), Jingle County, Shanxi Province, 1896. 19 15 When he was studying in Taiyuan No.1 Middle School, he ignored the obstruction of the school authorities, marched in the streets with patriotic teachers and students, and threw himself into the torrent of the struggle against Yuan. His words and deeds in the anti-Yuan struggle are widely circulated among Taiyuan students. Gao 19 16 was admitted to the Geology Department of Peking University. With the help of Li Dazhao, he finally found the great truth of saving China-Marxism. Together with Deng Zhongxia and other patriotic students, he actively promoted Marxism and organized the May 4th Movement, which shocked China and foreign countries. 1920 In March, he and Deng Zhongxia and other students from Peking University 19 participated in the launching of the "Marxist Theory Research Society".
Shi Pingmei, 1902, is a native of Pingding County, Shanxi Province. His nickname is Hsinchu and his scientific name is Ruby. Because he loved the nobility of plum blossom, he later chose the commonly used name "Pingmei". Since she was a teenager, she likes literature, singing, dancing and sports. Influenced by the May Fourth Movement, she came to Beijing from Shanxi and applied for the Chinese Department of Beijing Women's Normal University, but it happened that the Chinese Department did not enroll students that year, and she applied for the Department of Physical Education. But she didn't give up literature. Influenced by the progressive trend of thought at that time, she was diligent in reading and writing, and had initially revealed her literary talent. Gao's words and deeds in Jin's struggle against Yuan and his revolutionary activities in Beijing deeply touched Shi Pingmei's heart.
At that time, there was a Shanxi Fellowship Association in Beijing, where Shanxi people living in Beijing met on holidays. Gao often gives speeches here. One day during the holiday, Shi Pingmei walked into the Shanxi Guild Hall. The hall was crowded with people. I saw a handsome young man giving a speech to everyone. She quickly found a stool and asked the people around her, knowing that he was just tall. Gao's speech on science, democracy and freedom touched Shi Pingmei's heart, and she confirmed that she had met a true bosom friend. She felt that Gao was full of energy, but she looked a little pale and seemed to have symptoms. She asked the people around her, and the answer was: Gao had a hard time running around during the May 4th Movement, vomited blood twice, and still hasn't recovered.
Companionship, closeness and love, like an invisible rope, drew her to Gao's side after the meeting and met this young man whom she admired very much. They talked sincerely, from the past to the present and then to the future. When we parted, we held Shi Pingmei's hand high and said, "Friend! The past is indeed the past, and I am trying to create the future on the road of exhaustion! " Since then, Shi Pingmei has often talked with Gao about the current situation and ways to save the country and the people. Gao often reads Shi Pingmei's poems and essays in newspapers such as Jinghua Daily, and thinks that she is very talented in literature. The sadness revealed in her works contains a kind of courage to protest against world injustice. Gao also appreciates her very much.
When Shi Pingmei went to Beijing to study, her father found a protector for her. This is his student Wu Nianqiu. At that time, Wu was studying in Peking University, in the same grade as Gao. Wu Nianqiu cared about her life, accompanied her to read, write and comment poems, and won her love for him. But after a while, she suddenly found that Wu Nianqiu was already a man with a wife and children. It was a great blow to her. She decided to make a clean break with him and never meet again. After breaking up with Wu Nianqiu, she decided to be single for life.
1920 Winter in Beijing. At this time, Gao has graduated from Peking University, stayed as a teacher, joined the Beijing * * * production team (soon changed to a branch), became one of the earliest party member of the China * * * production party, and was elected as the first secretary of the Beijing Socialist Youth League. When he learned that Shi Pingmei was suffering from frustration in love, he talked to Shi Pingmei, brought her into contact with workers' friends, broadened her horizons and cheered her up. With Gao's help, Shi Pingmei cheered up. She writes and publishes essays and poems, expressing her persistent and enthusiastic pursuit of progressive ideas.
While Gao was engaged in the revolutionary struggle in Beijing, he also went back to Shanxi many times to secretly engage in revolutionary activities and became the pioneer of the capitalist movement in Shanxi. 192 1 in may, Gao was appointed by the Beijing party organization and returned to Shanxi from Beijing to form the Taiyuan socialist youth league to help them carry out revolutionary activities. 1922 65438+ 10, Gao, as a representative of China's * * * production party, attended the first congress of the Far East * * * production party and national revolutionary groups held in Moscow. At the second congress of the * * * Party in China, he was elected as the executive member of the Central Committee. After the meeting, according to the Party's decision, Gao assisted Cai Hesen in compiling and publishing the the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China publication Guide. The enemy hated and feared Gao's revolutionary activities, so he published a comprehensive report on Gao in the newspaper. Shi Pingmei secretly worried about Gao's safety and inquired about Gao's whereabouts. However, after several months, there was still no reply. '
Although Gao can't meet for the time being, he is still engaged in revolutionary activities. He picked a red leaf from the cliff of the Western Hills in Beijing, and then wrote two lines on the red leaf: "Autumn can't be harvested all over the mountain, and a red leaf sends acacia", and gave it to Shi Pingmei under the pseudonym of "Tianxin". But after his love with Wu Nianqiu was frustrated, Shi Pingmei decided to be celibate, so Shi Pingmei wrote a sentence on the opposite side of the red leaf: "The withered flower basket can't bear this bright red Ye Er" and sent it back to Gao.
G: After receiving the Poem of Red Leaves returned to him by Shi Pingmei, although his heart was a little gloomy, he did not lose hope and persistent pursuit for her. He still cares about her as always, asking her to participate in some activities and make some workers' friends. Shi Pingmei was grateful to Gao, but he didn't give up his single life.
In order to meet the climax of the Great Revolution, Gao/kloc-0 was sent by the Party in 924 and returned to Shanxi to form the * * * Production Party. After Taiyuan's party-building task was completed, Gao immediately went to Guangzhou via Shanghai to participate in the new revolutionary struggle. 19241June 10, the Guangzhou business group suddenly launched an armed rebellion, attacked the procession and brutally killed the revolutionaries. Following Sun Yat-sen's eastward expedition, he led the Corps and some troops from Yunnan, Guangxi, Hunan, Henan and Guangdong to suppress all the rebel activities of the business group in just a few hours. On the second day of victory, he bought a pair of ivory rings as white as jade, one for himself and one for Shi Pingmei. Wrote her a long letter and told her that he would go to the north soon. A few days later, Gao went north with Sun Yat-sen and arrived in Beijing, but Gao was overworked and coughed, and was admitted to a German hospital for treatment. Shi Pingmei wore an ivory ring to visit Gao in the hospital.
With Shi Pingmei's recognition of his love, Gao's mood is naturally happy, and with the concern of party leaders such as Li Dazhao, Gao's illness was quickly controlled and improved day by day. The first thing Gao did after leaving the ward was to take a walk in Taoranting. Taoranting is a place where he has carried out revolutionary activities many times, so he naturally has feelings for it. Moreover, in his eyes, Beijing has been ruined by warlords and powerful people. Only Taoranting, a remote place, is clean. Not only will he come here often, but he will also be buried here after his death. Gao and Shi Pingmei came to Taoranting for a walk for a few days. They walked and talked.

After the meeting, Gao was entrusted to meet Deng in Tianjin and handed over letters to the comrades who had been separated for a long time. After Gao returned to Beijing, he immediately took part in the preparations for the first National Congress convened by Sun Yat-sen as the host of the National Assembly. On March 1, 1925, the conference was grandly opened in Beijing, and Gao attended the conference as a representative of the conference. But three days after the meeting, I got acute appendicitis because of overwork. But he still insisted on attending the meeting, which delayed the treatment and aggravated his illness. He was immediately sent to Union Medical College Hospital until people found him. After hearing this, Shi Pingmei immediately rushed to Union Medical College Hospital by bus. She asked the doctor about her illness, and the doctor just sighed, "It's too late, it's too late. But we are trying our best to save it. " At 2: 40 pm on March 5, 1925, Gao passed away.
According to Gao's last wishes, Shi Pingmei chose the cemetery under the north slope of the northern pier of Taoranting Huludao after consultation with the Party organization. Shi Pingmei wrote an inscription for Gao Tombstone: "I am a sword, I am a spark, I would like to live like lightning and die like a comet." Shi Pingmei wrote below: "Yu Jun! I can't catch a life like a comet. I have to shed the rest of my tears to your grave until I can't come to see you. "
On March 29th, 1925, a memorial service for Gao was held in the auditorium of Peking University. Gao's comrades-in-arms, classmates, teachers, Soviet embassy in China and other foreign friends attended the memorial service.

However, to her surprise, Shi Pingmei was unable to attend the memorial service that day because of grief.
Shi Pingmei wrote many poems and songs about Gao. Shi Pingmei pays more attention to the broader social life, and his revolutionary demands are stronger, and his works have stronger social consciousness. Her ideal is more and more closely related to height. In "Blood Corpse", she truly introduced the truth of the "March 18th" tragedy.
