| In 1900, the [[Boxer Rebellion]] erupted in northern China which led to the invasion of the [[Eight-Nation Alliance]]. Revolutionary forces, under the leadership of [[Sun Yat-sen]], seized the opportunity presented by the chaos to launch uprisings. Zheng Shiliang initiated the Huizhou Uprising, while Shi Jianru raised funds in Guangzhou by mortgaging his own land to support the revolution. However, due to a lack of funds, the revolutionary forces in Guangzhou, led by Shi, were weak, prompting him to devise a big plan to gain influence. He considered assassinating the local Governor-General, De Shou, to support the Huizhou Uprising. Initially, he purchased 25 boxes of explosives, but they were seized by authorities. Later, he acquired 200 pounds of explosives. Under the name of his friend Song Shaodong, Shi rented a mansion behind De Shou’s residence and dug a tunnel there to store the explosives. | In 1900, the [[Boxer Rebellion]] erupted in northern China which led to the invasion of the [[Eight-Nation Alliance]].

| On the night of October 26, 1900, Shi attempted to detonate the explosives. Due to a faulty fuse, they failed to explode. Then, in the early hours of October 30, he successfully detonated the explosives, causing several civilian casualties and damaging nearby buildings. However, the explosion didn’t harm De Shou physically; it simply startled him awake by pushing him out of bed. This event astonished the public as well. | On the night of October 26, 1900, Shi attempted to detonate the explosives. Due to a faulty fuse, they failed to explode.
