In 1941, Chiang Kai-shek's youngest son Chiang Weiguo returned to Chongqing from studying in Germany, and when he was bored, he went to his stepmother Soong Meiling's study to read a book, and happened to see a book called "Asia Insider" on his desk, which was written by an American, mainly telling the secret story of Asian leaders.
Jiang Weiguo inadvertently picked up the book and flipped through it casually, and found that one page was folded, out of curiosity, he carefully read this page, but he did not expect that the character on this page turned out to be himself, and the content of the book was also very surprising to him, which actually wrote "Chiang Weiguo is not the son of Chiang Kai-shek, but Dai Jitao and a Japanese female nurse."
Chiang Weiguo was completely stunned on the spot, and immediately very angry, Chiang Weiguo recalled the bits and pieces of Chiang Kai-shek's relationship with himself, he has been favored by Chiang Kai-shek for many years, even more than his eldest brother Chiang Ching-kuo, saying that he is not biological, how can he not believe it,
But on second thought, what is said in the book is not unfounded.
Because before this, Jiang Weiguo was curious about his own background, and he didn't know who his mother was for many years? He was raised by Yao Yecheng, the concubine of his father Chiang Kai-shek, but he knew that his biological mother was not Yao Yecheng, as for who? His father Chiang Kai-shek never told himself that he originally thought that his mother was a mystery, but he did not expect that now even his own father has become a mystery. Jiang Weiguo couldn't sit still at that time, and took the book and went to find the other protagonist mentioned in the text, his godfather Dai Jitao.
After coming to Dai Jitao's house, he immediately opened the content of the book and asked, is what is written in it true? He wanted to completely solve the mystery of his life from his godfather, but Dai Jitao did not want to answer him, so he asked Chiang Kai-shek if he wanted to know, but Chiang Weiguo said that he was inconvenient to ask his father Chiang Kai-shek, and begged Dai Jitao to tell him the answer.
After hearing this, Dai Jitao reluctantly took out Chiang Kai-shek's photo and a mirror, asked Chiang Weiguo to look in the mirror, and looked at his father Chiang Kai-shek's face, and his own face, and said, "See for yourself, you see who you look more like yourself?" ”。 Jiang Weiguo looked at it for a while and said that his eyebrows were still more like Chiang Kai-shek's, and Dai Jitao smiled and said: "Then you can't get it."
After returning home, Jiang Weiguo thought about his godfather's words, although he was relieved, but he still had doubts, so he never stopped exploring the mystery of his life, thinking that even if Chiang Kai-shek was his biological father, he had to find out who his mother was?
In 1946, Chiang Weiguo finally ushered in the opportunity, and this year Chiang Kai-shek specially asked people to write a genealogy. Chiang Weiguo specially found the person in charge of this matter, wanting to see who was written in the column of his mother in the family tree, but unfortunately, the family tree described Chiang Kai-shek's wives and concubines and heirs in great detail, except for his own mother column is blank.
The time came in 1953, when Chiang Kai-shek arranged for Chiang Weiguo to go to the United States for further study, but as soon as the plane flew together, Chiang Weiguo asked the plane to turn around and go to Japan.
It turned out that Chiang Weiguo learned that he was born when Chiang Kai-shek was studying in Japan, and Chiang Kai-shek had a friend Junzaburo Yamada when he was in Japan, and it was this Yamada Junzaburo who sent himself from Japan to Guangzhou and handed it over to his father Chiang Kai-shek, so he decided to go to Japan in person to find out.
After seeing Yamada Junzaburō, Jiang Weiguo explained his intentions, Yamada Junzaburo paused, and the first thing he said was: "Your biological father is not Chiang Kai-shek."
Looking at Jiang Weiguo, who was stunned on the side, Yamada Junzaburo slowly said the past that had been dusty for many years
The matter began in 1909, when Chiang Kai-shek studied in Japan and met Dai Jitao, who had studied in Japan for many years, whether the two were alumni or fellow villagers, and at the same time followed the leader of the Kuomintang Sun Yat-sen.
Both of them are ambitious young people, talking freely about ideals together, introducing them as confidants, and soon becoming brothers with different surnames, and then for convenience, they directly shared a house and lived together.
While studying in Japan, once Dai Jitao fell ill, and during the hospitalization, a Japanese nurse named Shigematsu Kaneko took careful care of Dai Jitao, making Dai Jitao secretly feel affection for this Shigematsu Kaneko.
So Dai Jitao began to pursue Shigematsu gold, because Dai Jitao was handsome and knew how to use rhetoric, he quickly captured the heart of Chongmatsu gold, and soon lived together.
Soon due to the turmoil in China, Dai Jitao returned to China and left Shigematsu Kaneko alone in Japan, but Shigematsu Kaneko was pregnant at that time.
In 1916, Shigematsu Kaneko gave birth to a boy in Japan, this boy is Jiang Weiguo himself, Shigematsu Kaneko fell ill soon after giving birth to Chiang Weiguo, for the growth of the child, she entrusted the child to Chiang Kai-shek and Dai Jitao's mutual friend in Japan, Junzaburo Yamada, please send the child to Shanghai, and hand it over to the child's biological father Dai Jitao.
Dai Jitao was very embarrassed after seeing the child, because he already had a wife in China, and his wife was still very strong, Dai Jitao was notoriously afraid of guilt. It is said that Dai Jitao usually speaks like a river, but when others say, "Your wife is here". Dai Jitao immediately shut up, so frightened that he didn't dare to say anything.
But his own children can not be left alone, Dai Jitao can only pay for the child to temporarily foster in someone else's home, but after all, this is not a long-term solution, the child always has to grow up, and cannot be left outside in such an unclear way. So he thought of his good brother Chiang Kai-shek.
Chiang Kai-shek had not yet married Song Meiling at that time, his wife was his original wife Mao Fumei, Chiang Kai-shek was not afraid of Mao Fumei at all, and Chiang Kai-shek had a son, not much more, and Chiang Kai-shek was his brother for many years, and it would be convenient to see children in the future.
Subsequently, Dai Jitao immediately found Chiang Kai-shek and explained the reason for the matter, and the meaning was obvious, hoping that Chiang Kai-shek would help him and raise the child by his side.
Chiang Kai-shek faced his good brother for many years, or his own right-hand man in his career, and he agreed softly, he first let people raise the child in a family in Shanghai, and then received it from his side, handed it over to his concubine who did not have children to raise, and gave the child the name Chiang Weiguo.
After that, Chiang Kai-shek regarded the child as his own, and Dai Jitao recognized the child as a "righteous son" in order to facilitate the child's care, and often went to Chiang Kai-shek's house to see the child.
Hearing this, Jiang Weiguo thoroughly understood the mystery of his origin.
Later, Chiang Weiguo found the grave of his biological mother Shigematsu Jinzi and went to worship, and then silently put this matter in his heart, because he knew in his heart that Chiang Kai-shek regarded himself as his own for many years, even more favored than his brother Chiang Ching-kuo.
Later, Jiang Weiguo went to Japan to worship in front of the tomb of his mother Shigematsu Jinzi, and after cross-strait relations eased, he asked people everywhere to find the remains of his biological father Dai Jitao, and according to Dai Jitao's last wishes, he buried the urn in the stele forest of Zhaojue Temple in Chengdu.
In 1989, Jiang Weiguo's health was deteriorating, and he told the outside world the secret without scruples, and recorded a video saying that "his biological father is Dai Jitao, and his biological mother is Japanese nurse Shigematsu Kaneko."
But he also stressed that he was very happy to be Dai Jitao's son or Chiang Kai-shek's son, after all, both fathers loved him very much for many years.
