Fu Sinian's anecdote.

Fu Sinian's Institute of Historical Linguistics pays special attention to the excavation of historical materials. Therefore, Fu Sinian once presided over the purchase of cabinet files in the Qing Dynasty, which cost a lot of money, but Fu Sinian was somewhat disappointed in the process of sorting them out. Once he said to Li Ji in Beihai Jingxinzhai: "There is nothing important to find." Li Ji asked, "What is an important discovery? Does Mr. Wang want to find out the evidence that Manchu did not enter the customs in this batch of files? " Fu laughed.

1938, Fu Sinian served as state councilor and twice wrote to impeach Prime Minister Kong Xiangxi. Although the upper echelons ignored him, he was later allowed to expose corruption crimes, bombard him at the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference meeting, and finally ousted Kong. Kong's successor can't escape this number. Fu Sinian's article "Song Ziwen must go on like this" shocked the ruling and opposition, and Song Ziwen had to step down. It is also rare in history that a State Councilor suddenly dismissed two prime ministers.

After graduating from Peking University, Fu Sinian earned a sum of money to study abroad at public expense. From 19 19 to 1926, I studied in Britain and Germany successively. While studying abroad, Fu Sinian devoted himself to his research. According to his wife, it is recorded in Zhao's Miscellanies. At that time, most international students were "idle" and encouraged everyone to divorce when they were idle. But among so many international students, only Chen Yinque and Fu Sinian really concentrate on their studies, regardless of gender, so that some people compare them to "a pair of stone lions at the gate of Ningguo Mansion". In the secular atmosphere of "many international students want to get a doctorate", Fu Sinian didn't even get a master's degree. However, no one can but admire his profound knowledge.

As we all know, Mr Fu Sinian loves his students. 1950 12.20 Fu Sinian died of cerebral hemorrhage on the platform of NTU. The news report once broadcast "Mr. Fu Sinian died", which was heard by his students as "Mr. Fu Sinian was furious". So college students in Taiwan Province Province gathered to ask the school to punish the murderer, and the students didn't leave until the officials of Taiwan Province National Government came forward to explain clearly. This shows that Mr Fu Sinian is deeply loved by students.

Yu Dacai, the wife of the late Fu Sinian, wrote in her memoir: "When he came home at noon, he often visited the dormitory with me to check the students' meals. As soon as he enters the restaurant, the boys will shout welcome to the headmaster, while the girls will gather around him. After his death, the students cried and mourned, which is the true feeling of young people. "

Miss Zhang from the History Museum of Taiwan Province Provincial University said: Although President Fu has only been in power for more than 700 days, adults have always regarded him as the "patron saint", and the campus botanical garden where his ashes were buried was named "Fu Yuan". Probably among scholars, Fu Sinian's body fat is famous. Luo Jialun once asked him, "You big fat man, how can you fight with people?" Fu Sinian replied: "I multiplied the speed by the quality, which produced an overwhelming momentum!" In this case, it can really cheer up obese people.

However, the following story about obesity in Fu Sinian is the most interesting. Fu Sinian, Li Ji and Qiu Shanyuan are attending a banquet in Chongqing. At the end of the banquet, the host specially hired a slider for the three of them. Six workers stood in front of the door carrying pole. Qiu Shanyuan was the first to go out. The workers saw that he was a big fat man, and everyone didn't want to lift him, so they made way for each other. Li Ji came out second, and the remaining four workers looked fatter than those who just came out. They made some concessions to each other. When Fu Sinian finally came out, the remaining two workers were shocked. Because Fu Sinian was much fatter than the two men just now, the two workers lifted the slide and turned to run, which made the host of the treat very embarrassed! I think many people will laugh when they see this place, because there are really no strongmen in Sichuan who carry loads! Fu Sinian was born in a declining aristocratic family in Liaocheng, Shandong. Fu Yijian, the ancestor of Fu Sinian, was the first scholar after the establishment of the Qing Dynasty. Since then, countless people have been proud of Fu Jiake's examination, and many officials have reached the government. Therefore, the Fu family in Shandong has the reputation of "the first generation of literature". However, in this generation, although Fu's family studies still have roots, there is no quality of life at all. Fu Sinian's living expenses during his stay in Peking University were funded by others. Fu Sinian's knowledge of Chinese studies is very profound. When he was in college, although he was only a teenager, he looked like a "little expert on Chinese studies." His knowledge was even better than that of some professors in Peking University at that time. According to Fu Sinian's good friend Luo Jialun, "At that time, there was a professor Zhu Pengxian at Peking University, who was also a disciple of Taiyan, but the Wen Xin Diao Long he taught was not a director, so there were inevitably many mistakes in class ... It happened that a classmate named Zhang borrowed the full text of Professor Zhu's speech. After reading it overnight, I picked out more than 30 mistakes, signed by the whole class, and wrote a letter to the headmaster, Teacher Cai, asking for remedy. There are more than 30 mistakes in this book. Mr. Cai himself is an expert in this field. After reading it, he naturally understood ... by then, this course has been readjusted. "

Fu Sinian was a proud disciple of Huang Kan, but by chance, Fu Sinian "betrayed" his legacy and became a student of Hu Shi. When Hu Shigang came to Peking University to teach the history of China's philosophy, because of the special teaching methods and contents, it caused quite a controversy among students. Some people think that Hu Shi is not as good as Chen Hanzhang, a master of Chinese studies, and wants to drive him away; Some people think that although Hu Shi didn't read as many books as Chen Hanzhang, his lectures were very innovative. Fu Sinian is not a student of philosophy, but at the instigation of his roommate Gu Jiegang, he went to Hu Shi's class several times. He was satisfied with the result, so Fu Sinian said to several good students in the philosophy department: "Although he didn't read much, he took the right path. Can't make trouble. "

Because of Fu Sinian's prestige among his classmates, young Hu Shi gained a firm foothold in the forum of Peking University. Later, recalling these days, Hu Shi said with emotion: "I am an international student in my twenties, teaching at Peking University, and facing a group of mature students, I have not caused a storm;" It was more than ten years before I realized that Meng Zhen had always been my secret protector. "

Participate in politics instead of politics.

When he was a member of Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, he wrote twice to impeach Kong Xiangxi, Prime Minister of Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference. Although the upper echelons ignored him, he later let him catch the misdeeds of corruption in Kong Xiangxi and shelled Kong Xiangxi at the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference meeting. In order to protect Kong Xiangxi, Chiang Kai-shek personally hosted a banquet for Fu Sinian and wanted to intercede for Kong Xiangxi. They had such a famous conversation.

Jiang asked, "Do you trust me?" Fu Sinian replied: "I absolutely trust." "Since you trust me, you should trust the person I appointed." Fu Sinian said: "I trust the Chairman. As for saying that I should trust the person you appointed because I trust you, I can't say that if I cut my head off. " Chiang Kai-shek had no choice but to let Kong Xiangxi step down.

1June, 945, Song Ziwen succeeded as the Executive Dean. On February 1947 and 15, Fu Sinian published an article "Song Ziwen must go this way" in Century Review, lashing out at Song Ziwen's excessive behavior. When the ruling party and the opposition party wavered, Song Ziwen had to resign in the face of social opposition. Maybe he is tired of flattery and Nuo Nuo's negative attitude. Chiang Kai-shek was not angry with Fu Sinian, a defiant man, but admired him and was bent on pulling Fu Sinian into the government to be an official.

As early as the beginning of 1946, Chiang Kai-shek and Chen Bulei discussed adding a member of the National Government among northerners. Chen Bulei told Chiang Kai-shek that it was not easy to find a suitable candidate in the north. Chiang Kai-shek suggested: "It is most appropriate to find Fu." Knowing Fu Sinian's ambition and personality, Chen Bulei said to Chiang Kai-shek, "He is afraid he can't do it." Chiang Kai-shek probably didn't believe that anyone was unwilling to be an official. He said confidently, "Everyone advised him."

As a result, as a lobbyist, Fu Sinian resolutely refused to join the government. Chiang Kai-shek died and turned to Hu Shijin's government, hoping that Fu Sinian could do persuasion. As a result, Fu Sinian also strongly opposed it. In a letter to Hu Shi, Fu Sinian said that once they joined the government, they lost the freedom and weight of speaking. Once in the government, no one will listen to us anymore. He advised Hu Shi to keep his honor, and one of the words was very weighty: "Mr. Xie, this is all about putting a flower on a big dunghill." It is this sentence that dispelled Hu Shi's idea of being an official.

Li Ao has always praised Fu Sinian's integrity in refusing to be an official. In Li Ao has something to say, he said, "There was a student leader named Fu Sinian who refused to join the Kuomintang all his life. Not only did he not join the Kuomintang, but he also encouraged his teacher Hu Shi to take a less cooperative attitude with the Kuomintang. I think Fu Sinian is great at this point ... They want to give full play to the power of this kind of intellectuals, but they don't want to be assimilated by the Kuomintang ... The real liberals in the cracks don't do the Kuomintang or * * *. He has no social status and is very bitter. "

After Chiang Kai-shek arrived in Taiwan Province Province, he regarded Fu Sinian as a "distinguished guest" and often invited him to the presidential palace for dinner to discuss state affairs. Li Ao described such a detail in "Li Ao has something to say": "After coming to Taiwan Province Province, one day, then acting President Li Zongren came to Taiwan Province Province, and when he was about to disembark at Taipei Songshan Airport, Chiang Kai-shek came to welcome Li Zongren. In the reception room of Songshan Airport, Chiang Kai-shek sat on the sofa, next to Fu Sinian, president of Taiwan Province Provincial University. How did Fu Sinian sit? Cross your legs on the sofa, holding a pipe in your hand, and talking to Chiang Kai-shek with it in your mouth. Other Manchu civil servants stood aside, and no one dared to sit down in front of Chiang Kai-shek. With this, everyone will know the status of Fu Sinian in Taiwan Province Province. "

Unfortunately, the president of National Taiwan University, who dared to say and do practical things, came to Taiwan Province Province less than a year ago and suddenly fainted in the parliament hall when attending the fifth meeting of the provincial Senate. When Chiang Kai-shek heard the news, he immediately sent Chen Cheng, the premier, to direct the rescue, and mobilized all famous doctors in Taiwan to rescue Fu Sinian at all costs. He himself stood by the phone and waited anxiously for Chen Cheng's report every half an hour. Fu Sinian died of cerebral hemorrhage at the age of 55. 195065438+On the morning of February 20th, Fu Sinian attended the "agricultural resumption meeting" convened by Jiang Menglin to discuss the issues of improving agricultural education and sending Taiwan Province university students abroad for further study. At this meeting, Fu put forward many opinions. According to the people at the scene, he spoke in Chinese for a while, talked in English and Americans for a while, and mixed Chinese and English for a while, with great opinions. In the meeting of more than two hours, he talked more than anyone else. After a short break after lunch, Fu arrived at the Provincial Assembly Hall at 2 pm to attend the fifth meeting of the Taiwan Province Provincial Senate. On this day, the questions raised in the Senate are all about education management. After the afternoon meeting, he took the stage to speak, but Chen, then the director of the Education Department of Taiwan Province Province, mainly answered. At about 5: 40, Senator Guo suddenly jumped up and asked questions about NTU.

Guo, a native of Pingtung, Taiwan Province, was born in 1900 and studied in Japan. This man is brave and ruthless, and his ideal pursuit in his life is to rebel and be king, or to mess up the world first, and then to "rule the world." When studying in Japan, Guo began to lead a group of rabble and rogue proletarians, such as Li Tie kidnapper, Zhang Biao Zui and Wang Shuan Gou, to raise the banner of "Heaven dies, the foundation of the country" explicitly or implicitly. After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, he was extremely reluctant for the National Government to send personnel to receive Taiwan Province Province. Once again, with the attitude of rogue proletarians and the image of black boss of local docks, he gathered a group of rogue villains such as Jiang Weichuan and Wang Tian, who were detained as traitors and lackeys during the Japanese occupation period, and publicly clamored for the chief of the Taiwan Province Provincial Political Department, represented by Chen Yi, an official of the National Government, to make a big fuss about the issue of mainland military and political dignitaries going to Taiwan. Soon, Guo jumped down from Longmen and became a provincial councillor and legislator in Taiwan Province Province. Sitting in a wooden leather chair dedicated to government officials, the Guo family is very ambitious. No matter what the occasion, it is always difficult to converge the nature of rogue proletarians. He made some long speeches, accompanied by confusion of information, fallacy of truth and strong gunpowder smell of burning, killing and looting. Arrogant and frivolous, Jianghu people call him "Guo Cannon".

Unexpectedly, Fu Sinian, president of National Taiwan University, met such a rogue in the parliament hall.

At that time, Taiwan Province Provincial University was funded by the Taiwanese government, so "Guo Cannon" opened fire on "Fu Cannon" in a strange way as a local strongman. According to the participants, Guo's attack was mainly about how to deal with the equipment that the Kuomintang Ministry of Education grabbed from the mainland and stored in Taiwan Province's Taiwan Province Provincial University, and how to relax the admission standards of National Taiwan University. It seems simple, but it is also sensitive, complicated and difficult. For example, the enrollment scale of National Taiwan University has been relaxed as much as possible, and the number of students enrolled has reached the maximum, but all walks of life are still dissatisfied. In particular, Guo rallied some frustrated politicians and put pressure on the school in various ways, which made Fu extremely angry. Today, of course, Guo's question needs to be answered by himself, so Fu had to speak on the stage for the second time. After answering the above two questions, Guo suggested that Taiwan Province Provincial University should hire more Professor Taiwan Province and recruit more indigenous students from Taiwan Province Province, otherwise it would be detrimental to the people of Taiwan Province. In response to Guo's ignorance and arrogance, Fu began to fight back, talking about his school-running principles, rules, plans and ideals on the platform, and said that NTU had taken care of Taiwan Province students as much as possible. Considering that Taiwan Province students' Putonghua level is poor and they have not recovered for a long time, it is specially stipulated that China students' scores in liberal arts are lower than those of mainland students 10. When talking about emotional excitement, Fu Shuo said: "The scholarship system should not be abolished. I have great sympathy for those young people who are qualified and willing to work hard, but can't go to school because they have no money. I can't abandon them outside the school gate. " Finally, he said loudly: "To run a school, we must first solve the difficulties for students, let them have a stable living environment, and then ask them to study hard. If we don't solve the difficulties for them first, don't let them have a stable learning environment, and only ask them to study hard, it is inhuman ... "

When he finished speaking, it was about 6 o'clock (10), and Fu Sinian walked slowly down the platform with resentment. Just as he was about to return to his seat, he suddenly turned pale and faltered. Chen, who was sitting under the stage, saw it and quickly stepped forward to help. Fu only said: "No!" He fell into Chen Xue's arms and fainted. Liu Chuanlai, a member of parliament next to him, hurried forward, helped him to the seat of the people present, let him lie down, and made a pillow with Chen's wallet. From then on, Fu fell into a coma and never woke up.
