Chapter 67 Chapter 66 The Guest of Maojiawan

Chen Boda was originally a rare visitor in Maojiawan.Through the "hotline" contact, his relationship with Maojiawan has become increasingly close.What about Jiang Qing? She is competing with Lin Biao, she wants to expand her influence and improve her reputation.She competed secretly with Lin Biao. ※ ※ ※ In Beijing, Zhongnanhai, Maojiawan, and Diaoyutai sang "Three Kingdoms": Mao Zedong and Zhou Enlai were in Zhongnanhai, Lin Biao formed a clique in Maojiawan, and Jiang Qing conspired with Kang, Zhang, and Yao in Diaoyutai. Maojiawan is a very inconspicuous alley in Beijing. It is not like Zhongnanhai, a well-known political center throughout the country, nor is it as grand as Diaoyutai State Guesthouse.Maojiawan is located in the southeast of Ping'anli in Beijing, northwest of Zhongnanhai, and near Huangchenggen.Maojiawan is divided into three alleys: front, middle and back.Within a high gray wall, there are courtyards one after another.It used to be Gao Gang's residence.Lin Biao originally lived in Nancaochang Hutong, Xizhimenli, Beijing.Since Lin Biao became the Minister of Defense, he moved to Maojiawan for a while.After expansion, the construction area of ​​Lin Biao Mansion has reached more than 10,000 square meters.But outside there is only a gray wall, and none of the common people know that the "deputy commander in chief" lives here.

Chen Boda was originally a rare visitor in Maojiawan.Through the "hotline" contact, his relationship with Maojiawan has become increasingly close.In the past, when Chen Boda lived in Diaoyutai as the leader of the "Central Cultural Revolution", Jiang Qing would often pull him to watch "reference films".Chen Boda didn't have much interest in movies, but it was not good not to watch them, because Jiang Qing often held meetings after watching movies.Chen Boda dozed off while watching a movie. Today, Maojiawan also plays movies.Uncharacteristically, Chen Boda became an "activist" watching movies.Whenever "Lin Ban" called and asked him to watch a movie, he would definitely go.

From Miliangku Hutong to Maojiawan, the car will arrive in ten minutes.However, Chen Boda's car would always drive around the urban area first, and then quietly turn into Maojiawan until he concluded that there was no car following behind. Every time the "audience" who came to Maojiawan to "watch a movie" was nothing more than Chen Boda, Huang Yongsheng, Wu Faxian, Li Zuopeng, and Qiu Huizuo.Lin Biao has clearly formed his clique.Every "watching a movie" has become a secret date for the Lin Biao Group.Lin Biao is Mao Zedong's "successor" clearly stipulated in the party constitution of the Ninth National Congress of the Communist Party of China, and is the only vice chairman of the party.The Lin Biao Group has Chen Boda in literature, Huang, Wu, Li, and Qiu in Wu, and Ye Qun in the "Secretary-General".

What about Jiang Qing?She is competing with Lin Biao, she wants to expand her influence and improve her reputation.She competed secretly with Lin Biao. According to Chen Boda's recollection: Jiang Qing's despicable ambition has made many "wonderful fantasies". As soon as the "Ninth National Congress" is over, she wants to stand out personally above the central government.For example, she "named" a literary and art group, and she wanted to publish a big book about it.Comrade Zhou Enlai returned this press release. As soon as the "Ninth National Congress" is over, she will use the name of the "Central Cultural Revolution" to republish the minutes of some of her symposiums in Shanghai, "I want everyone to learn", and send them to me.I wrote, "All the documents of the Central Cultural Revolution Group must be approved by Chairman Mao from now on." As soon as Chairman Mao saw the document, he ticked off the words "Comrade Jiang Qing".

In short, she was not happy in Beijing.She, Zhang Chunqiao and Yao Wenyuan returned to Shanghai for a period of time to discuss their various strategies after the Ninth National Congress.Why are they not in Beijing?Because Comrade Zhou Enlai presided over the meetings of the Central Committee and the affairs of the Central Committee, their plots encountered resistance. Later, when Jiang Qing returned to Beijing, in October 1969, Lin Biao and Ye Qun mysteriously left Maojiawan in Beijing and flew to Suzhou.Lin Biao kept Jiang Qing in the dark and did not disturb Zhang Chunqiao in Shanghai. However, Zhang Chunqiao quickly learned that a "big man" had come to Suzhou, and immediately called Jiang Qing.

As soon as Lin Biao arrived in Suzhou, Jiang Qing "chased" him and sent someone to send a package of documents, which made Lin Biao extremely unhappy. Lin Biao's secretary, Zhang Yunsheng, described the fight between Lin Biao and Jiang Qing: Within a few days, Jiang Qing sent Lin Biao a package of documents, asking Lin Biao to express his support. In this steamed stuffed bun file, there are two very long materials, and a text message from Jiang Qing to Lin Biao is attached.One material was a long letter signed by Jiang Qing to the whole party on literature and art issues.The letter not only described the literature and art circles in the seventeen years before the "Cultural Revolution" as useless, but also described the current situation of literature and art work before and after the "Ninth National Congress" in a dark and dark way.The central meaning is to criticize the so-called "some areas and some people use the name of promoting model operas to distort and destroy the reality of model operas."The title of another group of materials is "Some Statements of Zhou Yang Advocating the Bourgeois Renaissance".This is an "attachment" to the previous letter, and it is also to be forwarded to the entire party.

In fact, in the summer of 1969, Jiang Qing sent these two documents to Lin Biao.Lin Biao approved "please discuss with the Politburo and submit to the chairman for instructions."Mao Zedong read Jiang Qing's two documents and ignored them.This time, Jiang Qing sent Lin Biao off again.What about Lin Biao?He wrote another instruction: "Please ask the Politburo to discuss it and submit it to the chairman for instruction." Lin Biao kicked the "ball" to Mao Zedong again.Mao Zedong pressed down again... Mao Zedong, Lin Biao, and Jiang Qing are performing a very interesting "Three Kingdoms"!
