Xie Fei[a] (simplified Chinese: 谢飞; traditional Chinese: 謝飛; pinyin: Xiè Fēi; February 1913 – 14 February 2013)[1] was a Chinese revolutionary and politician. She participated in the Long March and was the third wife of Liu Shaoqi.
Early life
She was born Xie Qiongxiang (Chinese: 謝瓊香) in Wenchang, Hainan Province. She was a revolutionary from the age of 13,[2] and became a member of the Chinese Communist Party in 1927.[3] After exile to Hong Kong and undercover work in Singapore, she returned to China in 1932,[3] where she worked in Fujian Province before coming to Ruijin in 1934.[4] In her time in Fujian, on several occasions she boiled and ate sensitive documents to keep them from Kuomintang agents, which caused life long stomach problems.[5]
Chinese civil war
Xiee was one of thirty women participants of the Long March, 1934–1935.[3] In October 1935,[6] she got married to Liu Shaoqi, who later became Chairman of the People's Republic of China, as his third wife.[7] Their marriage has been described as "brief, mysterious, and apparently childless,"[8] and ended in divorce in January 1939[6] or in 1941.[9]
In 1937, Xie studied at the Central Party School of the Communist Party of China in Yan'an[10] and then served as party functionary at various levels.[1]
Later life
After the establishment of the People's Republic of China in 1949, Xie became director of a special course at Renmin University of China and, in 1956, deputy principal of the Central Political and Legal Cadre School.[11][1] She was sent to work on a pig farm in 1959.[11] During the Cultural Revolution, Xie was imprisoned for two years as a former close associate of Liu Shaoqi;[9] she was rehabilitated in 1978.[11] She became the deputy principal of the People's Public Security University of China[11] and retired in February 2000.[1] She died of illness in Beijing on 14 February 2013.[10]
