Miao Jiashu often said, "Books are like medicine, which can cure fools. With knowledge, young people can serve the country."
Before and after the 1911 Xinhai Revolution, Miao Jiashu joined the League.

Yuan Shikai went on a nationwide manhunt for the revolutionaries, and the three of them were wanted by general order.
