Introduction to former residence
Kang Youwei, also known as Zu Yi, is Guangxia, Changsu (from March 19, 1858 to March 31, 1927). He is male and about 1.7 meters tall. He is a Chinese politician, thinker and educator. He is from danzaosu village, Nanhai City, Foshan City, Guangdong Province. He is also known as Kang Nanhai or Mr. Nanhai. He believed in Confucius' Confucianism and devoted himself to transforming it into a national religion that could adapt to modern society
He served as the president of the Confucius Association. His main works include Kang Zi Pian, Xin Xue Dai Jing Kao (compiled with the assistance of Chen Qianqiu and Liang Qichao), Dong Shi Xue in spring and Autumn period, Confucius system reform Kao, political change Kao in Japan, Datong Shu, travel notes of eleven European countries, etc.
Kang Youwei was born in a feudal bureaucratic family. His grandfather, Kang zanxiu, was a Juren during the reign of Daoguang. His father, Kang Dachu, was a magistrate of Jiangxi Province. Kang Youwei studied Confucianism when he was young and began to contact western culture in 1879.
In 1882, Kang Youwei went to Beijing to take part in the Shuntian rural examination, but he didn't get it. When he returned to the south, he passed through Shanghai, bought a large number of Western books, absorbed the evolutionism and political views from the west, and initially formed the ideological system of reform.
Treaty of Shimonoseki
In 1888, Kang Youwei once again went to Beijing to take part in the Shuntian rural examination. He took the opportunity to write to Emperor Guangxu for the first time, asking for political reform, but he was blocked. After 1891, he set up WanMu thatched cottage in Guangzhou, where he received apprentices, including Liang Qichao and Chen Qianqiu.
In 1895, he went to Beijing to take part in the conference examination. He learned that the Treaty of Shimonoseki was signed. He joined more than 1300 people and wrote tens of thousands of words, that is, "the letter was sent by bus", but it was not reached. At the end of May that year, he wrote for the third time, which was praised by Emperor Guangxu. In July, he and Liang Qichao founded the Chinese and foreign chronicles, and soon organized a strong society in Beijing. In 1897, when Germany occupied Jiaozhou Bay, Kang Youwei wrote again for reform. In January of the next year, Emperor Guangxu ordered Kang Youwei to state his views on the political reform. He submitted his "book of responding to the imperial edict and coordinating the overall situation". He also submitted his two books, "a study of the Meiji political change in Japan" and "the great Peter political change in Russia". In April, he and Liang Qichao organized the National Defense Conference, calling for national salvation and strength. On June 16, Emperor Guangxu summoned Kang Youwei in the qinzheng Hall of the summer palace, appointed him as the premier's Yamen Zhangjing, and allowed him to perform special activities to prepare for the reform, which is known as the reform movement of 1898 in history. Later, because of the intervention of Empress Dowager Cixi, the reform movement failed, and its specific details are still controversial.
After the failure of the reform, Emperor Guangxu was put under house arrest, Kang Guangren, the younger brother of Kang Youwei, was killed, and Kang Youwei fled to Japan, claiming to hold the emperor's imperial edict, organizing the royalist Association, advocating enlightened autocracy and opposing the revolution. In order to gain international support, he has traveled to various countries and met with European monarchs.
After the revolution of 1911, Kang Youwei returned to China in 1913 and edited the magazine "can't bear" to promote the restoration of Confucius. As a leader of the royalist party, he opposed the republican system and had been planning to abolish emperor Puyi in the Qing Dynasty. In 1917, Kang Youwei and the Northern Warlord Zhang Xun, who were loyal to the former Qing Dynasty, launched a restoration and left Puyi to ascend the throne. Soon after, they were defeated by Duan Qirui, the then Prime Minister of the northern government.
In his later years, Kang Youwei always claimed to be loyal to the Qing Dynasty. After Puyi was expelled from the Forbidden City by Feng Yuxiang, he went to Tianjin in person and visited Zhang Yuan, where Puyi lived. In 1927, Kang Youwei died of illness in Qingdao.
