From 1901 to 1911, she studied in Japan, and became involved with the revolutionary republican movements among the Chinese students there. She became a member of the Tonghmenghui in 1905, and head of its assassination section in 1907. In 1908, she participated in a planned assassination of Prince regent Zaifeng. She was one of the ideologists who planned the Guangzhou Uprising on 27 April 1911.
