He served in The Methodist Episcopal Church for many years and participated in the "Ten Thousand Word Memorial" or the "Memorial of the Examination Candidates" Petition (Gongche Shangshu movement) in 1895.[1] He also took part in the Hundred Days' Reform in 1898[1] and the 1911 Xinhai Revolution[2] which resulted in the founding of the Republic of China.
