Chapter 9 Section 2: From Breakup to Reconciliation

Although Tao Menghe is Fu Sinian's master, Fu has never regarded Tao as an elder, except that the team led by Tao Menghe, as described earlier, is not the direct descendant of Liangshan Chao Gai and Song Jiang's brothers, nor is it the second brother. Powerful groups such as Lu Zhishen, Yang Zhi, and Wu Song joined Longshan, but Shi Jin, Zhu Wu and others like Shaohuashan joined. Although they stepped into the gate of Liangshan, they have never been able to win the admiration of martial arts masters from various sects.What's more deadly is that the team led by Tao Menghe, which is full of "bumpkin" colors, has not changed much for many years. The stubborn stone shape that can't be poured in adds the taste of foreign independent households.In the Liangshan ethnic group where the dragon and the tiger are hidden, this team can only be cautious in their words and deeds, walking on thin ice, begging for perfection, living among the flower monk Lu Zhishen, the black whirlwind Li Kui, the dwarf tiger Wang Ying, and even the Qinghu Sanniang, or steamed buns made of human flesh. Dominatrix Sun Erniang and others are below the elder brothers and sisters-in-law.

On the contrary, Fu Sinian, who was the first to join Shuibo Liangshan, had a superposition of domineering, arrogance and arrogance.As Cheng Cangbo, then chief writer of Central Daily, said: “I had frequent contacts with Meng Zhen. When the Academia Sinica was established, Mr. Cai often lived in the Academia Sinica’s head office in Chengxian Street, Nanjing, and I often lived there. When I go to Panhuan, I have more chances to eat with Mr. Cai with Yang Xingfo. Mr. Cai does not eat. At the dinner table, Mr. Cai has a thermos pot of Shaoxing wine, about six taels. Mr. Cai drinks alone, and we eat with him After Mr. Cai finished his wine, he ate a few pieces of toast. Meng Zhen also often went to eat. At that time, Meng Zhen always raised his head when he saw people, and sometimes booed to the sky, even when he was next to Mr. Cai."

Cheng only saw the domineering demeanor of the other party with his nostrils upturned and huffing at the sky, but he might not have experienced Fu Sinian's wild talk and supercilious arrogance.According to Fu Sinian's own confession, after the success of the Northern Expedition of the Kuomintang, Fu and several classmates ate at Cai Yuanpei's house. The tableside suddenly raised his arms and shouted wildly: "When our country is in order, we will not only destroy the Japanese devils, but also the Western devils, and drive him out of the west of the Suez Canal, from the Arctic Ocean to the Southern Ocean, except India, Outside of Persia and Turkey, all must be 'counties and counties'..." The yelling and yelling, which made the slightly drunk Cai Yuanpei very unhappy, Cai reprimanded on the spot: "This is unless You will be a general!" Fu Sinian was horrified by the words like cold water splashing on his head, he turned his head to look at Cai Yuanpei's furious face, he suddenly sobered up, and then he didn't say a word. ——This allusion vividly reveals the inherent arrogance and domineering nature of Fu Sinian's character.Just imagine, Fu dared to act presumptuously next to Cai Yuanpei, the "father of Peking University". How to put it in your eyes?

Tao Menghe is honest and peaceful in nature, and tries his best to avoid competing with others and making enemies. However, he has his own calculations on many things. Once he has too many calculations, his colleagues will inevitably look down upon him.In addition, the deeper crux of the feud between Tao and Fu lies in their respective political ideology, outlook on life, etc., or the differences and differences in "ideology" as claimed by the propaganda department in mainland China later. When Tao Menghe was studying at the University of London, England, he mainly studied sociology and accepted the theoretical system of the Weber couple.Because Weber and Bernard Shaw co-founded the Fabian Society at that time, and engaged in the so-called social reformist movement in Britain, Tao Menghe, a believer of Weber, was also somewhat influenced by Shaw in his thinking.When Fu Sinian was studying in England, he had contact with the Webbs and George Bernard Shaw and others, but Fu looked down upon them, especially George Bernard Shaw himself, or felt disgusted.Bernard Shaw, who was born in Dublin, Ireland, was known as a socialist after he emerged with literary creation in London. From the age of 36 to his death at the age of 94, he wrote a total of 51 plays in 58 years. In 1925 won the Nobel Prize for Literature. In 1931, George Bernard Shaw came to visit the Soviet Union, which was deeply favored by him. Gorky wrote to congratulate him on his 75th birthday.Praise him as a "brave warrior" and so on. In February 1933, George Bernard Shaw was invited by several bigwigs from the China Civil Rights Protection League. Although he had the idea of ​​disdain to set foot on Chinese territory, he finally landed in Shanghai from Hong Kong for a short stay on February 17. Soong Ching Ling, Cai Yuanpei, Lu Xun, Yang Xingfo, Lin Yutang and other celebrities met in a hurry.Xiao means "it was for fun" (in Lu Xun's words), but with the arrogance of Westerners, with a look of disdain, he muttered a few foreign words about China and Chinese culture condescendingly, and made a lot of nonsense. , saying that "China has no culture at all, but there is some culture in China's countryside and fields" and so on.Later, many people in China had ulterior motives, or were muddle-headed, superstitious and flattered George Bernard Shaw, seeing him as a philosopher and the savior of mankind in the world, and using this to elevate the reputation of several bigwigs in the Chinese alliance who had a relationship with him worth.But there were also some people who expressed their contempt for Xiao's behavior at that time, and hated his behavior even more.Among these clear-headed and intensely emotional warriors, Fu Sinian was one of the top ones, and he lashed out at Xiao's behavior and thoughts.The deep resentment and the intensity of his love, until 1950, more than ten years later, he still had a stagnation in his heart, like a gnat in his throat, and he felt uncomfortable.This year, guided by other events, Fu Sinian remembered how poisonous Shaw's thoughts were to the Chinese people, so he wrote the article "My Views on Bernard Shaw" in order to eliminate his poison and dissolve the block in his heart.The text says:

Bernard Shaw "has no creative ideas, but is good at plagiarizing others' ideas." The most powerful people he plagiarized were the Weber couple.Bernard Shaw's words are long-winded, but his thoughts are simple, his works are all the rage, and he has made a lot of money in his life.He was scrupulous about taking royalties.Zhang Shizhao asked to see him and said, "Mr. is very famous in China." ’ He said: ‘What’s the use of being famous in China?China has never participated in international copyright agreements. 'Although this is a joke, when I was studying in the UK (30 years), college students acted in his plays, and the royalties never let go-even though he is a socialist. ""Bernard Shaw was old and afraid of dying, so he wrote "BACK TOMETHUSEIAH" (BACK TOMETHUSEIAH), which was still a masterpiece (around 1920).Since then, the plagiarism has become more and more unfocused, and the more irresponsible it is.I thought, wouldn't it be more perfect if I didn't return to Lao Peng and live thirty years less?This is really not like the way people talk after death, but on this occasion, I kind of imitate his tone when saying this. "

In Fu Sinian's eyes, although Bernard Shaw copied Weber's thought, the Weber couple is not a good thing. They are a pair of "socialist neo-bureaucrats" through and through, and they are "very light in humanism, with a concept of efficiency". It is very serious, and the vulgar people who call humanists "fantasists".In the article, Fu blamed rather righteously: "The Weber couple greatly admired the Soviet Union in their later years, thinking that it was a new civilization. Among the nations in the East, all three of them admired Japan very much, because the Chinese were 'chaos', 'wouldn't Doing business', (what an imperialist point of view)! After Wei Bo toured China, he said that the Chinese were an inferior race, and George Bernard Shaw visited Japan, and when he passed by Shanghai, he almost looked disdainful to go ashore." Finally, Fu Sinian's overall conclusion to Bernard Shaw was that "he In politics, efficiency is more important than humanity; in thought, it is plagiarism; in articles, it is a comic hero; in drama, it is a speech by one person; in art, it is writing newspaper articles.” In short, Fu Sinian In his eyes, Bernard Shaw is an extremely bad, good-for-nothing liar, a fool and a street gangster like Qiu Ba.

As soon as this article was published, it was praised and sought after by a group of Chinese liberal intellectuals. During the Anti-Japanese War, Cheng Cangbo, the editor-in-chief of "Central Daily" and later a professor at Soochow University in Taiwan, commented: ""I See Bernard Shaw" is probably Meng Zhen's last work. This short article ended Meng Zhen's 30-year literary career. This article is the stage show of Meng Zhen's "life-length works". Meng Zhen said in that article: He didn't study drama He did not study literary criticism, but it is not an expert to write well on a topic like George Bernard Shaw. Such a complex, confusing, and phantom subject matter and characters are not rich in Chinese and Western knowledge and super-special wisdom. There is no way to chop it down with a single knife. Meng Zhen’s article chopped down a Bernard Shaw with a single knife. After Bernard Shaw’s hack, he changed from magic to decay, and exposed all the magic tricks of Shaw’s life. Meng Zhen is immortal , that one article is enough.”

Fu Sinian's old friend Mao Zishui also commented: "The three thousand characters in Fu's article will forever be an important document in the history of literary criticism, and must be read by those who want to 'know people and discuss the world'...Mr. Meng Zhen It is absolutely correct to be dissatisfied with George Bernard Shaw on the grounds that 'efficiency is more important than humanity'!" What Cheng and Mao said, is it true?no?Or plausible?But one thing seems indisputable, that is, as soon as Fu Wen came out, Bernard Shaw’s superstitions and myths created were exposed and shattered. As time goes by, his expression becomes clearer and wiser, and the influence of Bernard Shaw has become the lizard's residual dream—the age of dinosaurs is gone forever.

Quite different from Fu Sinian's thinking, or running counter to it every day, Tao Menghe accepted the Weber couple's "social investigation" thinking and acted according to the rules, and praised all personnel and affairs in the Soviet Union. On January 24, 1924, Lenin, the leader of Soviet Russia, passed away. Tao Menghe, who had returned to China from the United Kingdom, sent a letter to the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Beijing Government on February 26, together with 47 professors including Li Dazhao, Ma Xulun, Yu Dafu, Ding Xilin, and Shen Yinmo. Gu Weijun asked the government to restore diplomatic relations with the Soviet Union.The letter specifically pointed out that "Soviet Russia overthrew the monarchy with the civilian revolution,...it showed the rule of the people, and it is really my good friend" and so on.Due to his approval and admiration for the Soviet Revolution, Dow's political thoughts gradually slipped to alternatives, and he expressed a sympathetic understanding of the thoughts and practices of the CCP.

Fu Sinian, on the contrary, disliked both the CCP and the Soviet Union and publicly expressed his opposition.In addition to being anti-Communist, Fu was also anti-Soviet, "Because of nationalism and humanitarianism, he was anti-Communist and anti-Soviet."In Fu's eyes, Gong and Su are joint and inseparable, two grasshoppers tied by a rope.He felt jealous of these two grasshoppers that were jumping up and down in the wilderness of the mountains and forests, and wanted to eradicate them quickly.According to Fu Sinian, the CCP followed closely behind the Soviet Union, imitating Stalin's methods, and what they practice is not democracy but autocracy, and has a method that does not respect reason and humanity.Therefore, once the Communist Party takes power, the social order will be in chaos, and it is even believed that the people's freedom will be deprived, and the culture will become a desert, etc.

Tao Menghe had high hopes for Chiang Kai-shek himself and the national government in his early years, and had contact with Chiang himself.According to what Jin Yuelin said in his later years, "For the sake of his family, he could be a senior official of Chiang Kai-shek, but he didn't. Once I was in Nanjing, I suspected that he would be an official in Nanjing, because the place where he lived was really particular. Very. But after waiting for a long time, he still has not become a senior official in Nanjing, so I was wrong in my suspicion.”He also said: "Tao Menghe's thinking is left-wing, he is not an old democrat, nor is he a Communist. His political thought may be the latest in social democracy, but he has no activities in this regard." What Jin Yuelin said must be honest, Tao Menghe is not someone who deliberately pursues to be a member of the party and state, if he deliberately wants to do it, based on his in-law relationship with Huang Yu, Qian Changzhao, and Shen Yi, there should be great hope.During the Anti-Japanese War, Tao served as a senator in the Political Council of the Nationalist Government as a non-party member and a free intellectual, and began to get involved in politics.However, with the gradual deepening of understanding of the Kuomintang and the Jiang family dynasty, disappointment gradually turned into resentment.Later, as he presided over a number of rural economic and social surveys, as well as the shift of the entire social and political centripetal force, Tao changed the elite posture of free intellectuals, and "leftist thinking became increasingly strong."During Li Zhuang’s time, the corruption of the Kuomintang government had become unstoppable. Tao Menghe quoted Zhou Yichun, the former president of Tsinghua University and then Minister of Agriculture and Forestry, as saying to his colleagues: “The Kuomintang government is rotten to the core (Rotten to the core). Core), that is to say, it is incurable.” Facing this “incorrigible” government, there are some so-called celebrities.Still ignorant of good or bad, they are following the trend and trying their best to maintain this "core".For this reason, Tao Menghe gave an example in a mocking tone: "When this kind of person sees a high-ranking political figure, he sits on the edge of the chair, no matter what the other party says, he can't stop nodding like a rooster pecking rice, ha yo ha You keep saying yes, you look like a slave, and it makes people hate you." It can be seen that Tao Menghe at this time, in addition to maintaining his integrity as a free intellectual, really hated the Kuomintang government and the "core". I don't have much hope for Chiang Kai-shek himself. Regarding the situation during this period, Fairbank once recorded in his memoirs: "Li Ji said that the people are starving now. Over the years, he has lost two children, and Tao Menghe has also lost his spouse. Intellectuals think that if they are valued, or if all classes in the country are sharing the joys and sorrows of the country, then it doesn't matter if they go hungry. But they have seen such shocking injustice Equality and extravagance at the top of society. Therefore, many intellectuals feel discouraged, some will die, and the rest will become revolutionaries." He also said: "The above impressions are only from the records recorded at that time. Some of the materials selected from the mass of materials were added together to draw a conclusion: Chiang Kai-shek, as the symbol and center of the Kuomintang regime, had lost the trust and loyalty of the Chinese intellectuals in late 1943." What Fei said was roughly right, squatting Tao Menghe, who was suffering from poverty, illness and life pain in Lizhuang, faced with a rotten "core", his depression and loneliness could not be relieved, his thinking became more and more eccentric, and finally embarked on "abandoning the dark and turning to the bright", and completely fell into obscurity. The political situation of the Chinese Communist Party. Fu Sinian was different. He hated the corruption of the Kuomintang government, and he also saw and recognized the corruption of this "core", but he only hated it in the style of "sorrow for its misfortune, anger for its failure to fight, and hatred for iron that cannot be made into steel". And there are delusions of wanting to support the building with one's own strength.The formation of this political and ideological concept was not only due to Fu Sinian's own special personality, but also some complex social reasons intertwined with each other.As Wang Chensen, an expert on Fu Sinian research in Taipei, said: In such an era, to become a scholar or master, one must have a non-academic network and a close relationship with the government. Foundation, Sino-British Fund Committee, maintain close relationship.And Fu Sinian just has such conditions. Whether it is a liberal member of the government, Zhu Jiahua, the head of the foundation and a member of the party and state, or Hu Shi, one of the main leaders of the China Foundation who is a good teacher and friend, they have maintained a close relationship with Fu. Unusual friendship.In an era when private resources were scarce, this was an extremely critical relationship.It can be seen from Fu Silian's letters and the care he gave to the Liang brothers and Lin Huiyin when he was in Lizhuang. Later, Fu asked Zhu Jiahua and the foundation for money for Chen Yinke's eye disease.Throughout the Anti-Japanese War, Fu Sinian asked for subsidies from various parties for the poor and sick intellectuals, which became a major priority in his life, and he was known as "the intellectual who takes care of the intellectual".Because of this relationship and reason, Wang Fansen came to the conclusion: "Such a role made it impossible for him to break with the Kuomintang government in terms of political attitude. His dissatisfaction and criticism of politics drove him to expel two administrative Dean, but he is just a 'censor', not a revolutionist." Fu Sinian, who regards himself as the "censor", was finally respected by the "boss" Chiang Kai-shek because of his unusual network background in politics and science, as well as Fu's unique and powerful way of handling things and ability.Jiang's respect intensified Fu Sinian's support for the national government with his whole body and mind, and he had more sincere hopes and illusions for the Kuomintang and the core of the government, especially Chiang Kai-shek himself. This is why Fu Sinian has always played the role of "censor" The root cause of frequent appearances and rivalries with Kong Xiangxi and Song Ziwen, relatives of the current emperor.For a period of time after Fu was elected as a member of the KMT government, he often made "big comments" on party and state affairs at gatherings in Chongqing.According to his old friend Cheng Cangbo, suddenly one day, Fu Lun mentioned the president of the Fifth Academy of the National Government at that time.On Sun Ke, it is said that he is "the son of my lord." On Yu You, he is "an old party member and a scholar."When talking about Dai Jitao, he said: "Amitabha." When talking about Kong Xiangxi, he expressed outrage in a loud voice: "What is he based on?" Later, Fu Sinian held on to Kong Xiangxi and Song Ziwen to the death, and Chiang Kai-shek had no choice but to remove Kong and Song from the presidency respectively—of course, this was after the victory of the Anti-Japanese War. Since Fu Sinian is deeply convinced of the "boss" Jie Gong and the party-state government he controls, and has a great concept of prosperity and loss, this determines that although he and Tao Menghe live in a corner of Lizhuang, they are " Chickens and dogs hear each other, old age and death do not communicate with each other" political fate. If it is just that they do not communicate with each other until they are old and dead, the relationship between Tao and Fu may not break up or even turn against each other.However, since they eat with spoons in the big iron pot of Academia Sinica, the collision of chopsticks and bowls becomes an unavoidable fact, not to mention that sometimes people are in the rivers and lakes and cannot help themselves. The split between Tao and Fu revolves around "" Marching into the Northwest" event unfolded quickly. At the beginning of 1941, Zhu Jiahua, head of the Organization Department of the Central Committee and acting president of the Academia Sinica, called Gu Jiegang, who was working in the research institute of Qilu University, to Chongqing to run the "Literary and History Magazine".Zhu wanted to take care of the purpose of going to Chongqing, not just to edit the "Literary and History Magazine", but also an important task, which was to help him with frontier work.At that time, Zhu Jiahua set up a frontier language translation committee in the organization department. He served as the director himself, and then became the deputy director after taking care of it, presiding over the daily work of the committee.On October 12 of this year, Zhu Jiahua, who was extremely enthusiastic about the "frontier" issue, published the article "Northwest Construction Issues and the Scientific Movement", encouraging scientific workers to "go to the Northwest to open up a new world of science", so that the already rising "Northwest fever" is heating up again.Gu Jiegang was grateful for Zhu Jiahua's kindness to him. After taking office, he invited Fei Xiaotong, Han Rulin, Li Anzhai and other experts in Mongolian, Tibetan, Arabic, Siamese, and Annan languages ​​to operate.Many years later, Shi Zhangru recalled: "At this time, the government and the people were full of enthusiasm for the Northwest. In the 30th year of the Republic of China, Yu Ren went to Dunhuang for inspection. After returning, he praised the scenery of Dunhuang. In addition, there were also art inspections that had little to do with us. Zhang Daqian had already gone to Dunhuang earlier, so people from all walks of life organized groups to go to the northwest." The emergence of this situation, in addition to the enthusiasm of people from all walks of life, is inseparable from the political considerations and support and agitation of the supreme leader Chiang Kai-shek.As early as a few years ago, Chiang Kai-shek was aware of the political danger in the Northwest. In particular, Sheng Shicai, the native emperor of Xinjiang, openly opposed the central government and stationed troops in Xinjiang, posing a great threat to the central government.However, Sheng Shicai had a very close relationship with the Soviet Union. The powerful Soviet Union had the idea of ​​Xinjiang either explicitly or secretly, and was always ready to annex it and include it in the territory of the Soviet Russian Red Empire.Faced with this crisis, Chiang Kai-shek first endured and did not speak out. It was not until Germany attacked the Soviet Union in 1941 that Stalin was unable to look eastward that Chiang Kai-shek took the opportunity to dispatch and first sent Zhu Shaoliang to lead heavy troops in the Hexi Corridor to form a powerful deterrent to the Sheng Group. In August 1942, Chiang personally took the opportunity to inspect Xining, Jiuquan and other places, and solved the Xinjiang issue with soft but tough tactics. The arrogant and domineering Sheng Shicai expressed his submission to the central government. After returning from the Northwest inspection, especially after surrendering Sheng Shicai, Chiang Kai-shek was in high spirits. At the same time, he further realized the importance of the Northwest to the Central Committee and the whole country, so he proposed that "the Northwest is not only the base of our War of Resistance, but also the most important foundation for our nation-building." "The claim.Jiang's speech immediately aroused strong repercussions from all walks of life, "Slogans such as 'Develop the Northwest, Build the Northwest' surged like mushrooms after rain." Amidst the climax of this wave, Zhu Jiahua, as a member of the Central Committee, was unwilling to lag behind.In order to cater to Chiang Kai-shek's proposition, he came up with a whim and proposed a plan to "advance to the Northwest", asking Tao Menghe from Lizhuang to move the Institute of Social Sciences to the Northwest.This matter was approved by Jiang Tingfu, the former head of the History Department of Tsinghua University and then director of the Administrative Affairs Department of the National Government's Executive Yuan, and the two hit it off.Zhu Jiahua approached Tao Menghe for negotiation, and Tao immediately agreed, and confessed impassionedly: "At this moment, if there is something that can serve the country, it should be done." Zhu Jiahua saw the situation and immediately asked Tao Menghe to take out A written plan was presented to Supreme Leader Chiang Kai-shek for approval.Tao Menghe quickly worked out the plan, intending to relocate the Institute of Social Sciences to Lanzhou to conduct research on economic and cultural contacts, and asked Jiang Tingfu to submit it to Jiegong for review.Let's see Lao Jiang.I think this plan is a manifestation of the spirit of thoroughly implementing the instructions of my supreme leader. Of course, I am optimistic, but I don’t know why I ordered the Institute of Social Sciences to move to the west of Lanzhou.This instruction surprised Jiang Tingfu and Zhu Jiahua, and they didn't know what kind of tricks Lao Jiang was playing in his mind.According to speculation at the time, Chiang Kai-shek may have wanted Tao Menghe’s Institute of Social Sciences to set up workstations in the northwest villages like foreign missionaries out of political considerations. In the name of investigating people’s sentiments and customs, they lurked among all social strata and kept close contact with them. Paying attention to and monitoring external dangerous forces that pose a threat to the central government are actually equivalent to the workstations of the Central Command and the Military Command, a spy agency whose job is to collect intelligence.However, the Institute of Social Sciences of the Academia Sinica is an open academic research institution. What it does and pursues ideals are naturally academic careers, and it is impossible to become a spy agency that sells dog meat.Since Jiegong had already issued an order and could not send it back for reapproval, Jiang Tingfu and Zhu Jiahua came up with a countermeasure to appease Tao Menghe, who was in high spirits, and Jiang Tingfu wrote a letter to Tao Menghe. He said, "I am not disappointed because Jiegong approved the move to the west of Lanzhou. Some jobs can still be done in Lanzhou, but the sign is hung in the west of Lanzhou." According to the speculation of Pan Guangzhe, a researcher at the Institute of Modern History in Taiwan who has specialized in this period of history, the reason why Tao Menghe was very happy and enthusiastic about "entering the Northwest" at that time was that he had his own little abacus. In fact, it is Tim", that is, the headquarters of the Institute of Social Sciences is still rooted in Lizhuang. With a sum of funds allocated by the government, another part of the staff is gathered to set up camp in Lanzhou, forming a de facto branch of the Institute of Social Sciences.In this way, with enough funds, a strong team, and a wide range of activities, it will naturally produce rich scientific research results. Tao Menghe and the entire staff in the institute can also take this opportunity to feel proud and proud, and learn from the achievements made since they left Beiping to join the Academia Sinica. All kinds of resentment and shame. Pan's speculation is reasonable, but it seems incomplete. The so-called "advance to the Northwest" this time is obviously Tao Menghe taking the opportunity to get rid of Fu Sinian's pressure and withdraw the Institute of Sociology from Lizhuang. After entering Lanzhou, he completely cut off contact with Fu Sinian himself and the Institute of History and Language, in order to keep out of sight and out of mind, and to have a rare peace.According to the vision of Zhu Jiahua and Jiang Tingfu at that time, the so-called west of Lanzhou was only on the outskirts of Lanzhou, or in the towns on the border between Lanzhou and Xining.When Zhu Jiahua and Jiang Yanfu asked Jie Gong for instructions on where the "west" should be implemented, Chiang Kai-shek wrote the word "Jiuquan" with a swipe of his pen.This Jiuquan is located thousands of miles west of Lanzhou, where there are flying sand and rocks. How will Tao Menghe and his brothers get along in this deserted Gobi desert?What will be done?With such a move, all the enthusiastic runners felt cold water being poured on them, and their whole bodies became cold. Now that the leaders of the party and state wrote clearly in black and white, Zhu Jiahua and Jiang Tingfu did not dare to play puppetry blatantly in order to play tricks on Jiegong, who is as shrewd as a monkey.Tao Menghe was very frustrated when he learned of this situation, but he couldn't think of a countermeasure for a while.When several people were at their wit's end, Fu Sinian, who was ridiculed by Jiang Tingfu as the "Supreme Director-General" of Academia Sinica, heard about this matter.Fu did not investigate further, and took the initiative to write to Zhu Jiahua with the habit and style of "the chief executive officer", and began to solve problems for this very friendly boss.The letter said: ... This is a matter of great concern. Strictly speaking, there is only one oil store in Jiuquan. How to set up a social institute, there is neither economics nor cultural contact to study (the study of cultural contact is best done in Xining). The branch office must be located in Lanzhou, and Jiuquan must not be used. If this point is not changed, there will be endless troubles.If the name hangs a social place in Jiuquan, it must be empty.With Jie Gong's enthusiasm for the Northwest, summer and autumn may not be the reason why he will not go there, but at first glance, it is empty, and it is not a real relocation. I am afraid that the whole hospital will be affected badly. He also said: "It seems inappropriate for this court to actually place the social office in Lizhuang, and the branch is in Lanzhou, but the sign is in Jiuquan, so it is not in Lanzhou." " When Fu Sinian wrote this letter, he was indeed a little bit "too high". He was enthusiastic about Zhu Jiahua, Jiang Tingfu and Tao Menghe's collusion to establish a social science institute in the Northwest, but in fact he had a heart.Fu is aware of the importance of the Northwest, but it is limited to the political crisis. As for the construction of the Northwest and the foundation of the country that the ruling and opposition parties have raised, he does not take it seriously, and has the intention of belittling it.Under the guidance of such ideas, Fu Sinian joked about Tao Menghe's idea of ​​relocating the Institute of Social Sciences to the Northwest: "It was a joke to quote a term in the newspaper at that time that said, 'Yang Fengyong Yin violates, and it will make mistakes to the public'." Two months later, After analyzing all kinds of information, Fu Sinian suddenly felt that something was wrong. Tao Menghe's enthusiasm for "entering the Northwest" was clearly a conspiracy to compete with him for territory.As early as when the Nanjing Academia Sinica recruited Tao Meng and the old troops in Peking, Fu Sinian, who was full of domineering and keen sense of smell, specifically approached Tao and made a "gentlemen's covenant", which contained "nearly a hundred years of history, that is, the beginning of the Opium War. , run by the society, and its equipment also by the society."The history before the Opium War was done by Shi Yu presided over by Fu, and the Institute of Social Sciences was not allowed to get involved.In his later actions, Fu Sinian truly fulfilled this gentleman's agreement.Quan Hansheng, a researcher at the Institute of History and Philology, "had aspirations to solve a problem in modern times in the past", but Fu Sinian stopped him in time. Fu ordered his research scope to be only above the early Qing Dynasty, and not to peep into modern times.Fu's case, Tao Menghe had no choice but to order his brothers not to peep at modern times. The staff of the two schools can be said to be on the road, and each side walks, and the well water does not interfere with the river water.To Fu Sinian's surprise, this time Tao Menghe took the opportunity of "advancing to the Northwest" to secretly recruit troops, expand the army and prepare for war, and started actual actions.According to Zhu Jiahua, Tao Menghe wanted to get Fei Xiaotong, Han Rulin, Li Anzhai and others recruited by Gu Jiegang for the "Literary and History Magazine" in Chongqing to the branch of the Institute of Social Sciences in Lanzhou to build momentum.Li Anzhai graduated from Yenching University in his early years, and he was also a teacher and friend with Fei Xiaotong; although Han Rulin graduated from the Department of Philosophy of Peking University, he later taught in Yenching University; The director of the department, the frontier language compilation committee, was presided over by Han Rulin, an expert on Mongolian and Tibetan history recommended by Gu. When he was in Kunming a few years ago, Fu Sinian was very annoyed because Wu Wenzao and Fei Xiaotong created a so-called "ethnic society" and set up a hilltop to compete with the Institute of History and Language. Until the top of the mountain is overthrown and flattened.Now Tao Menghe has secretly recruited Fei Xiaotong and other "Yan Da faction" into the Institute of Social Sciences of the Academia Sinica in an attempt to gather mountains, forests and wilderness, and compete with the Institute of History and Philology. Is this okay?Therefore, Fu Sinian immediately sent a letter to Tao Menghe, which contained words of warning and negotiation like "I am afraid that there will be large-scale repetitions later, so it is not convenient to go on."Tao Menghe was struggling with how to get away with "the branch is in Lan, and the brand is in Jiuquan". Suddenly seeing Fu Sinian accusing him of everything he had done in an aggressive manner, he was unwilling to surrender, and fought back on the spot: "... ...and now he was whipped again and again, and warned that the person he invited should not be appointed as a researcher (actually, there is only one person), and my brother can do nothing. If I admit that I am not qualified to work in the Northwest, I may have to quit the "Central Committee" completely Institute', Shang Qi confessed to me fortunately." When Fu Sinian received the letter, seeing that the other party didn't take him seriously as the "chief executive officer of the Supreme Supreme" and dared to challenge him publicly, he became even more angry, his blood pressure surged, and he splashed ink again. He also sent a letter to Zhu Jiahua, elevating Tao Menghe's idea of ​​"hanging a blank sign in Jiuquan" to the political height of "close to deceiving the government", and insisting that this is a "major matter of court affairs" and should be "Wear the academic meeting to discuss its various possible interests", because of such a major event.It is not something that can be counted and should be implemented by collusion between the dean and a certain director.As for the development prospects of the Academia Sinica, how should it be planned, and "black box operations" are not allowed.Fu Sinian's remarks have both political heights, theoretical basis, and factual gains and losses. It can be said that he has made every step of the way. My heart was terrified and I had to think about it. Tao Menghe, who had begun to fight back against Fu Sinian's suppression, was not convinced. He wrote to Fu Sinian again and said bluntly: "Taking a step back, China's academic work, even the work that is close to academic work, is so naive, and the research territory is so vast. , 'repetition'... so what's the problem?" What Fu Sinian can't tolerate the most is that others "repeat" the field he controls, and "repeat" himself, which is tantamount to setting up another mountain.Raise the flag to rebel and declare war on yourself.This point can be clearly seen from Xia Nai's speech in 1955, which was a particularly valued disciple of the Fu family.Under political pressure, Xia Nai, then deputy director of the Institute of Archaeology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, published the article "Criticism of Hu Shih's Bourgeois Thoughts in Archeology" in the third issue of "Archaeological Newsletter" in the same year. The crimes, the fifth of which is: "There are many sects, and the schoolboys dominate. The schoolboys of Hu Shifu's generation used research institutions and colleges as their sites, and became an exclusive sect. Like warlords, although they often intend to expand Although the territory belongs to other people’s sphere of influence, others’ own territory should never be touched by others. This kind of atmosphere has also spread to archaeological work.” These words of Xia Nai, although they were in the harsh political situation at the time, had to be followed. , but it also reflects from another aspect that Hu Shi and Fu Sinian do have problems in this regard. On the issue of the listing of the Institute of Social Sciences in Northwest China, Fu Sinian saw that Tao Menghe ignored his warnings and refuted them eloquently. Fu Sinian sent another secret letter to Zhu Jiahua in anger, in addition to requesting that the matter be "heard of by the Academy He also came up with another strategy to suppress and sanction Tao Menghe, and strongly demanded that the "demarcation line between the work of the Institute of Social Sciences and the Institute of History and Philology be submitted to the Academic Affairs Conference". After approval by the heads of the two institutes, "the entire academy will set up a Northwest Workstation of the Academia Sinica" in order to concentrate strong personnel to do more comprehensive work. Tao Menghe learned the contents of Fu Sinian's secret letter, and knew that it was Fu's trick to stir up trouble in the middle. If the whole hospital set up a workstation in the northwest, the personnel sent would naturally be led by the Institute of Shi Yu, and the Institute of Social Sciences. Personnel are still under their oppression and bullying and will never see their day.Thinking of this, Tao Menghe was furious, and no longer cared about the face of his elders, he simply broke his face, retaliated with a tooth for a tooth, and wrote to Fu Sinian with words such as "the tricks are superb, and I know it well", denouncing his words and deeds.Fu Sinian was very angry when he received the letter, and immediately replied to counterattack, specifically mentioning the word "trick".Fu said: There is no standard dictionary for the Connotations of tricks in China, but if you try books such as "Liao Zhai", "Journey to the West", "Fengshen Bang", it is completely a curse word, meaning "little conspiracy" or the like in English. Treacherous, ... Such curse words, it is best to hope that I will take them back, that is to say, in the next letter, I will take back the ten characters of "my skills are superb, and I know it well", unless I agree that I don't need to be friends anymore. At this point, the emotions of the two sides have become like a state of hand-to-hand combat on the battlefield. Once the rift is opened, it is difficult to merge.After several rounds of confrontation, the rift between the two became bigger and bigger.最终的结局是，陶、傅二人形同仇寇，无论是陶孟和设想的“分店在兰，牌子却挂在酒泉”，还是傅斯年构想的“西北工作站”的对应之策，统统成了泡影。 意想不到的是，由于李约瑟的到来，形同陌路且于对方心怀耿耿的陶、傅二人，又暂时摈弃前嫌，双手握到了一起。 关于两位学术巨头是以何等心境和缘由，在这样的时间和场合走到了一起，历史没有留下详细记录，只是后来林徽因在给费正清夫妇的信中透露了只言片语，信中称：“有人开玩笑说，梁思成成功地使平时有嫌隙的陶孟和博士与傅斯年博士在李约瑟的讲演会上当众握手言和，应当获诺贝尔和平奖。这件事因为在大庭广众下发生，更具戏剧效果。它刚好在李教授在中央博物院大礼堂作讲演之前那一刻发生的。据报道，许多人暗自为这件事鼓了掌。李济博士走上前去和梁思成握了手，并且私下说要授给思成诺贝尔和平奖。”林徽因在信中特别提及让费正清夫妇放心，并言“人类总的来说还是大有希望的”。最后又突如其来地插进一句：“这次和解的基本工作还得归功于某位人士。这位人士有拼命卷入别人是非的癖好，而且尽人皆知。” 林徽因所说的“某位人士”，随着当年在李庄的知情者一个个凋谢而难以查考。金岳霖晚年曾说过一句话：“陶孟和先生是我的老朋友，后来在四川李庄同我发生了矛盾，但是，那是个人之间的小事。”话到此处没有接着说下去，具体细节不得而知。或许，这个矛盾与林徽因提到的“某位人士”卷人金、陶或沈性仁之间的是非亦有关联，只是真相到底如何，尚不能确定，这个插曲或将成为一个永久悬案而无法破解了。
