The Republic is so violent

Chapter 164 Thirteen Monsters of the Imperial River and Lake (2)
Besides, the ranking of the leaders of the Restoration Council is a bit messy.In the early years, Cai Yuanpei, a university student, was the boss. Later, Cai turned to the cultural field, so Zhang Taiyan, the lunatic Zhang who ranked second, was promoted to the boss.But Zhang Taiyan's mental state is unreliable, and Tao Chengzhang, who really ranks second, is in charge of the specific work of the Restoration Council.But when the Revolution of [-] was successful, Sun Wen secretly sent Chiang Kai-shek to assassinate Tao Chengzhang in the hospital.Li Xiehe, who was ranked third at the time, was chased and killed by the Tongmenghui after leading the crowd to attack the manufacturing bureau, and was forced to flee to Nanyang.

The history of the pursuit of each other by the Tongmenghui and the Restoration Society can be called the most tragic and tragic fierce battle in history.It's just that this tragic history has been lost for a long time, and it is unlikely to be excavated in the future.We know that the Restoration Society has always been at a disadvantage in this fierce struggle, because the Restoration Society is different from the Tongmenghui. The Tongmenghui’s goal is to lead the Chinese revolution, while the Restoration Society is inspired by joining the revolution.In this way, every time the Guangfu Society does a righteous act, the Tongmenghui will come to grab the credit. If the Guangfuhui refuses to let the Tongmenghui take away the credit, a massacre will be inevitable.

In this way, Tao Chengzhang, the most sober figure in the Restoration Society, was killed, and Crazy Zhang was lured to Beijing by a small eunuch and put under house arrest. With blood, he has no chance of power.

Li Xiehe's entry into the Preparatory Security Council was the last glimmer of the Restoration Council's efforts to save the country.Because the Restoration Society really does not aim at personal grievances, but takes saving the country as its mission.Whether it is Yuan Shikai or Sun Wen, they lack feelings for specific people. This is completely different from the former Tongmenghui and the current Chinese Revolutionary Party who have no feelings for things, but only people.The purpose of the Chinese Revolutionary Party is to kill all those who stand in their way of power, no matter who this person is or what this person is doing, as long as you don’t give up power to them, they will never end with you.

However, Li Xiehe has no feeling for power. He really believes that only the road of constitutional monarchy can avoid the struggle for power among the people of the country.A constitutional monarchy means that the monarch has no real power and is only the presiding officer of the country in name. The rotation system of political leaders bound by the constitution can satisfy the ambitions of more politicians. Everyone has the opportunity to try their political ambitions, as long as You can convince the public.

Li Xiehe thought so, so he did it.

Being able to be the last among the six gentlemen depends on Li Xie and the revolutionary veterans in the final analysis.You must know that the people who can enter the security conference are all at the master level, and they all have the nonsense ability to release a complete set of theoretical ideas in the blink of an eye.Li Xiehe was obviously a little bit weak when he was mixed with this group of people. When he heard what this one said, he applauded well, and when he heard that one said that, he still had to applaud.The Jianghu brothers saw him like this, so they nicknamed him Li Guinian.

Li Guinian was a famous musician during the reign of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty. Relying on his strong relationship with the great poet Du Fu, he asked Du Fu to write an advertisement poem for him, saying: "I often see it in King Qi's house. Cui Jiutang has heard of it a few times before. It is a good man in the south of the Yangtze River. Scenery, meet you again in the season of falling flowers.” Du Fu’s advertisement poem was written for Li Xiehe, who was nicknamed “Li Guinian”, which means that he can only beat the side drums and devote himself to theoretical achievements. Nothing good.

The rivers and lakes brothers mentioned here are actually bachelors of letters who can't squeeze into the circle of the Chou Anhui. Will be reduced to cynical idlers and so on.Seeing the success of the six gentlemen, gaining both fame and fortune, the idlers were so angry that they could only curse loudly behind their backs to keep their mental balance.

As the saying goes, people point fingers at each other and die without any illness. The six gentlemen are constantly poked in the back, which is quite depressing.It is said that one day, six people, "Doctor Reckless" Yang Du, "Xiehou" Sun Yuyun, "Small Master Book" Yan Fu, State Teacher Liu Shipei, "Chengji" Hu Ying, and "Li Guinian" Li Xiehe, came to the Central Park. Come to Jin Yuxuan to drink tea, while drinking, Hu Ying suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in the spine, so she asked Yang Du: Others say we are running dogs, are we running dogs?

"Doctor Reckless" Yang Du said with a smile: I will not walk, and I will not be a dog.

"Waiting obliquely" Sun Yuyun said: I walk and walk, dogs and dogs.

Yan Fu said: "If I walk, I will walk, and if I am a dog, I will not be a dog."

Hu Ying cried: "Yan Fu and I are just the opposite. I don't walk, and dogs are dogs."

State Teacher Liu Shipei, "Li Guinian" Li Xiehe did not make a sound.

Why are they silent?
You can think of this with your toes. There are at most four combinations of walking and dog: walking dog, not walking dog, walking not dog, not walking not dog... and these four are given by the previous four. After finishing speaking, Liu Shipei and Li Xiehe had no choice but to speak even if they wanted to.

05 cheating

The Six Gentlemen of the Chou'an Association are responsible for the theoretical construction of the imperial system and belong to the strategic level.It is not enough to have a theoretical ideology alone. There must be people with super ability to carry out the imperial ideology. This requires an executive layer.

As the saying goes, execution is the key. The executives in Hong Xian's period were quite tasteful. People in the world called Hong Xian the seven evils.

Which seven evil?
Zhu Qiqian, the chief culprit, Duan Zhigui, the second culprit, Zhou Ziqi, the third culprit, Liang Shiyi, the fourth brother, Zhang Zhenfang, the fifth culprit, Lei Zhenchun, the sixth culprit, and Yuan Naikuan, the seventh culprit.

However, how did these seven people make their names in the arena?

The poem goes: I want to turn East Asia into Western Europe, and I hear people talking about freedom everywhere.At the entrance of a car, Miss Zhu San was in the limelight.The third Miss Zhu mentioned here is the third daughter of Hong Xian's murderous Zhu Qiqian.Zhu Qiqian came from a police background and was steady and down-to-earth. He was the director of the preparatory office for Yuan Shikai's enthronement ceremony. It is said that he was the only one doing specific work, so he shouldn't be mistaken for the culprit. After careful investigation, it turned out that he was the one who took the blame for the most experienced Xu Shichang.

Speaking of Xu Shichang, it is no exaggeration to say that he and Yuan Shikai exchanged their lives.In his early years, Yuan Shikai donated money out of righteousness, and he stuffed money with everyone he saw.But Xu Shichang wanted to go to Beijing to take the exam and had nothing to worry about, so he came to Yuan Shikai to solve it.Yuan Shikai paid him without saying a word, so Xu Shichang went to high school as he wished.It can be said that the friendship between the two began when they were teenagers, and then they lived together in the court. Xu Shichang was the master of literature, and Yuan Shikai was the master of martial arts. I don't know how many difficulties and obstacles they have gone through.

When Yuan Shikai proclaimed himself emperor, what he hoped most was that Xu Shichang would be in charge of the preparations for the ceremony. In fact, the real person in charge of the preparations for the ceremony was indeed Xu Shichang.But I don't think Xu Shichang is too sophisticated, so he shut his mouth when he got to the post and just kept silent.Once Yuan Shikai came and asked him: Brother, you know about the persuasion from outside, right?

Xu Shichang: I don't know.

Yuan Shikai: There's such a big commotion, brother, why don't you know?
Xu Shichang: Know what you know, and what you don't know is what you don't know.

Yuan Shikai: ...you are busy with your work, I will go first.

If the words were not speculative, Yuan Shikai could only retreat angrily.And Xu Shichang was actually not busy, no matter what happened at the ceremony, Zhu Qiqian came to ask him for instructions, Xu Shichang just sat there quietly, looked at Zhu Qiqian with two sincere and kind eyes, and insisted on not saying a word.His appearance made Zhu Qiqian feel nervous, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and take responsibility, and make decisions on his own when encountering things.As a result, at the end of the filming, he actually photographed himself as the murderer, but Xu Shichang didn't even intercede for him.

For Zhu Qiqian, the worst thing was that he also worshiped Xu Shichang as his godfather.But in front of Xu Shichang's sophistication, Zhu Qiqian couldn't do it if he wanted to cheat his father, so he could only be cheated by his father miserably.

Let’s go back to that strange poem: I want to turn East Asia into Western Europe, and I hear people talking about freedom everywhere.At the entrance of a car, Miss Zhu San was in the limelight.This poem is about the great emancipation of the mind in the early years of the Republic of China. Countless girls rushed out of their homes, smelted fragrant cars, and ostentatiously passed through the market.This trend of openness aroused the infinite excitement of idlers from all walks of life. They all called for the decline of the world and the decline of people's hearts. They wrote letters asking Yuan Shikai to rectify the social atmosphere and not let the people live in a horrible environment that fell below the moral bottom line.

But Zhu Qiqian is not a big official, has a lot of responsibilities, and is not well-known, but he is extremely eye-catching.His daughter Zhu Meiyun became the subject of attention of boring people in the capital because of her outstanding appearance, forcing Zhu Qiqian to order her daughter not to leave the house for three months.

This is exactly: if you cheat on your father, you can't be cheated on by your father, and Zhu's name is the big murderer in vain.Smelting clothes and car passing through the market, the girl is free.In short, Zhu Qiqian, the culprit, is actually not a culprit at all, he is just a scapegoat.

06 The worst is nothing but the four evils
Hong Xian's second worst offender was Duan Zhigui from Beiyang.

Speaking of this period of Zhigui, there are only three words: good for nothing.This person is an old brother of Beiyang. When he appeared on the stage, he was only two levels lower than Duan Qirui, Feng Guozhang, etc., and he was on an equal footing with Cao Kun, the idiot, and Zhang Xun of the Junxian faction.But Cao Kun and Zhang Xun have been working hard and moving forward steadily, gradually becoming the mainstay of Beiyang.Cao Kun later managed to get a president to do it, and Zhang Xun was even more ruthless. During the second revolution led by the Japanese Senge, he went to Nanjing and killed three Japanese inadvertently. The Japanese yelled like crazy Shouting, Yuan Shikai forced Zhang Xun to resign, but Zhang Xun insisted on ignoring him. In the end, Yuan Shikai gave in and called Zhang Xun to Beijing, saying: My warrior.Then Zhang Xun had to help Qing Emperor Puyi ascend the throne again, and after getting tired of playing, he went to Tianjin to engage in charity.In short, he lived up to the life of a warrior.

But this Duan Zhigui, the more he lived, the more boring he became. Not only was he left far away by Cao Kun and Zhang Xun, but he hadn't gotten along with the unknown Zhu Qiqian. People don't know what to say about him.

Duan Zhigui is getting worse and worse, but he lacks self-knowledge.At that time, people from the Junxian sect invited the abbot of Yingjiang Temple in Anqing and the well-known master monk Yuexia in the Buddhist world to come to Beijing to give a lecture.I don't think so, but Yuexia is really funny, when she preached, she devoted a chapter on desire, saying: All things start from desire, and everything is defeated by desire.If you want to calm down the conflicts in the world, you have to eliminate your desires... Everyone else could tell that something was wrong, but no one said a word, except Duan Zhigui jumped up and yelled: This old bald donkey uses excuses to ridicule the present, come here, and me Turn this bald donkey to the law enforcement office and give him a severe punishment... Hearing his roar, the old monk Yuexia recited my Buddha's mercy, jumped off the lecture platform, and fled like flying away.

In short, this Duan Zhigui lacked intelligence. He was the only one among the high-level Beiyang soldiers who participated in the conspiracy of the imperial system.

The three culprits are Zhou Ziqi, this Zhou Ziqi is a cross-border figure, in all fields, including politics, military, academia, diplomacy, transportation, etc., if one counts as one, he will run to lie down.He is the founder of Tsinghua University, the first president of Tsinghua University, and also served as the president of the Republic of China.Some time ago, the Japanese made a fuss about "Article 21", and he ran back and forth, busy with all his feet.

The reason why Zhou Ziqi is one of the three culprits is because he has a fatal weakness: he is a gangster.Others have a group and a camp, but he is an elder brother, a loner, dedicated to the country and the people, doing work whenever he sees it, and helping when he is busy.In the end, he inadvertently helped the emperor such a favor, but in fact he didn't do anything bad.But because he has no backing, let alone friends to help him, and because of his reputation, he is naturally reduced to the three culprits.When the responsibility is investigated in the future, everyone else is fine, those who should go home go home, those who should sleep should sleep, but he is Zhou Ziqi, who ended up in exile overseas, escaping from Japan.

After all, Zhou Ziqi, the three culprits, is a typical scapegoat character just like the big culprit Zhu Qiqian.

The four murderers are Liang Shiyi.Although he only ranks as the fourth culprit, he is more vicious than the first three culprits combined.And the reason why he was ranked among the four murderers was only because there were too many people who protected him and tried their best to relieve him of responsibility.

Speaking of which, Liang Shiyi alone is more powerful than the six gentlemen of the Chou Anhui.As mentioned earlier, Liang Shiyi is the director of the Department of Transportation, a famous God of Wealth, and he is easy to do things with money. He initiated the establishment of the National Petition Federation. The manifesto is very powerful, saying:

The founding of the Republic of China, in the past four years, the wind and rain are precarious, and it cannot last all day.It will not take a day for fathers and children to reconcile and hope for the constitution of the monarch!Since then, [-] provinces and special administrative regions and various organizations have each recommended a venerable master, united with colleagues, and made a common appeal.Its books are tens of thousands of words, its people are counted by thousands, and its aspirations are the word Junxian!

When the declaration was released, there was a thunderous sound and a sea of ​​people. Countless people took to the streets, waving their colorful flags, and gathered in front of the Senate House in Beijing, shouting slogans: Change the national system, only our people!A constitutional monarchy, the foundation of prosperity...and so on.

The situation at that time was like this. Business petition groups took to the streets, academic petition groups also took to the streets, and petition groups from various provinces continued to march on their way to Beijing to petition.People have the same heart and the same reason, and the masses of the people are crying and fighting for the land. They only hope that Yuan Shikai will soon ascend the throne and become emperor.

There are different religions. In Hong Xian's era, there were seven evils, and no one was as fierce as Lao Liang.The masses of the people took to the streets, crying for their parents to go crazy.But he said that Liang Shiyi, who was only ranked as the fourth worst, set off the big plate of China, angered a hero, and set off a bloody storm all over the sky.

07 The Greatest Secret of the Republic of China
However, the God of Wealth of the Department of Transportation spared no expense, and sent petition groups from business circles, academic circles, and provinces to Beijing, making a huge impact and grabbing people's attention.This move was so risky that it didn't kill Yang Du, the leader of the Six Gentlemen. At that time, Yang Du publicly said something like this:

Liang God of Wealth, Liang God of Wealth, you are really good. With your strong financial resources, you actually mobilized so many people to petition, which makes me pale in comparison. Let's wait and see!
So Yang Du immediately called a meeting of the six gentlemen to discuss how to deal with such a severe situation.

At the meeting, Yang Du asked everyone to work together to find a way to suppress Liang Shiyi, and not let the transportation department steal the limelight.But everyone said: There is really no way to think about it. Everything that needs to be organized has been organized, and everything that can be mobilized has been mobilized. There is really nothing to do.

At this time, Yang Du said something famous and creative.He said:
Although everyone mobilizes extensively, there is still some room for mobilization. We just want to win with surprises. For example, women, especially prostitutes, rickshaw drivers, beggars and other social lowdowns.

Yang Du's words made the people present deep in thought, and some people echoed and said: The boss's level is obsessed, you see, we can't think of this.However, it is not difficult to organize these people. They are all organized internally, so what can be used to lure them?What benefit do they have?These people are notoriously worthless.

Yang Du laughed and said, "Women allow them to participate in political power, but those in Beijing, such as Jing Jingsheng, love to show off, don't they shout every day to participate in politics?"If the state system changes, they can participate in politics, and they will definitely be willing to participate.For prostitutes, their flower donations can be exempted.As for the rickshaw pullers and beggars, the main thing is to give them money.The money will be distributed by the Petition Federation, we just need to organize.But the reported list must be in our hands, otherwise it will be useless.

Immediately after the meeting, it was carried out, and the city of Beijing reached the busiest moment in history.

The women's petition group was the first to take to the streets, pumping their fists and shouting: Women want to participate in politics, constitutional government works best!Junxian wins the hearts of the people, don't want a big president!

The stout rickshaw pullers pulled their rickshaws and gathered in front of the Senate House in a mighty way, raising their arms and shouting: "Republic, republic, you can't get a job!"Junxian Junxian, everyone makes money!
The next petition team was composed of disciples of the beggar gang, each with a rough porcelain bowl for begging, and shouted: "Master, do me a favor, the republic is over."If the master rewards some money, Jun Xian will like it!
Next was a petition group composed of prostitutes. Their slogan was: the republic is the worst, and there are fewer guests.Jun Xian wins the hearts of the people, and the guests are crowded at the door.

How could Liang Shiyi believe it when he heard that these four grotesque teams were rushing out from the angle?I like Junxian, I work from morning to night... Don't blush, this guest, here is my phone number and address, you must come, don't keep my little sister waiting for a long time, Gonghe Gonghe, I am afraid of my wife when I go home, Junxian Junxian, my little sister is most willing... Seeing this strange situation, Liang Shiyi yelled and fell back: Yang Du, you are cruel enough.Just like that, Liang Shiyi was beaten back into the ranks of the four murderers.

The book implies that it is not for nothing that Yang Du, the "outstanding talent in the world", was able to come up with this trick.In fact, these tricks were the inspiration Liang Qichao brought him.The process by which Liang Qichao inspired him to produce such inspiration was precisely the cause of the ultimate failure of the imperial system.

Continue to talk about the fifth culprit, Zhang Zhenfang.Speaking of this Zhang Zhenfang, he is actually not fierce at all. Not only is he not fierce, but he also has a lot to do with gossip news.In modern China, there are four sons. Yuan Shikai's second son, Yuan Kewen, is one, and Zhang Zhenfang's son, Zhang Boju, is another.And Zhang Boju once wrote a poem saying:

It's true that the sleeves are broken and the peaches are divided, and the flowers in the backyard sing across the river.

Be careful not to speak loudly when acting like a baby, you must guard against the five adults next door.

The five adults mentioned in this poem are Zhang Boju's own father, Zhang Zhenfang, who ranks fifth among Hong Xian's seven murderers.Because Zhang Zhenfang was related by marriage to Yuan Shikai's family, Zhang Boju's aunt married Yuan Shikai's elder brother Yuan Shichang, so all the sons of the Yuan family should respectfully call Zhang Zhenfang fifth uncle.

So what is this strange poem about?
This poem reveals the greatest secret of the Republic of China period.It's about the prince Yuan Keding. This kid doesn't prostitute or gamble, doesn't approach women, and doesn't have any bad habits. Why is his moral character so noble?
