Although they were able to learn Western knowledge thanks to Li Hongzhang, they were also able to distinguish between beauty and ugliness, good and evil.

Because they would be arrested if they held a public demonstration, the "enlightened" students tried all kinds of methods.

They no longer appeared in public, but instead colluded with each other privately, and posted all kinds of slogans insulting Li Jingfang on the streets and alleys, such as "Huai people are ruining the country", "the second Hu Hai", and "the contemporary Qin Hui".

Under the surveillance of patrol police along the streets, the huge city of Guangzhou has a feeling of "everyone is watching".

However, even so, these students still could not escape the clutches of the devil.

In order to intimidate the people of Guangzhou, Li Hongzhang adhered to the principle of "rather arrest the wrong person than let him go."

Even innocent people were implicated.

Chen Shaobai, whose original name was Chen Wenshao, was dragged out of his home, staggering, with bruises on his face and his hair disheveled.

Behind Chen Shaobai, his sister Chen Wenyun saw her brother being taken away and cried out:

"My brother didn't march, he didn't put up signs, he's innocent!"

In history, Chen Shaobai joined the Xingzhonghui led by Sun Yat-sen and devoted himself to the revolutionary cause.

However, in this time and space, after graduating from the Hong Kong College of Medicine for Chinese, he did not get to know Sun Yat-sen, and returned to Guangdong without any trouble, opening a pharmacy to make a living.

However, his pharmacy had taken in several protesters who had escaped after being beaten by patrolmen a few days ago, and provided them with five herbal medicines for free.

Therefore, Chen Shaobai was arrested today by the minions of the Lingnan Governor's Office who had followed him and was to be taken to jail.

Chen Wenyun didn't understand why his brother was arrested. In fact, his brother did not participate in the march against Li Jingfang, nor did he post slogans everywhere.

Just because the patrolmen from the Lingnan Military Governor's Office found several sets of blood-stained clothes in her home, she was charged with "conspiring to overthrow the Military Governor's Office."

No one would have thought that a doctor who ran a clinic would want to overthrow the Governor's Office.

In fact, this only affects innocent people.

The patrolman's target was not Chen Shaobai from the beginning, but his sister Chen Wenyun.

Chen Wenyun is a student of Zhenguang Academy, a church school and the first girls' school in Guangdong, which is dedicated to training female nurses, doctors, teachers and other professions.

After the establishment of the Republic, Chen Wenyun gradually began to show up in public. He usually wore a clean white Western doctor's uniform and walked through the streets, providing free medical treatment to ordinary people, treating headaches and fevers.

As time went by, almost everyone in Guangzhou knew about this beautiful and kind-hearted doctor.

After Li Hongzhang issued an order to arrest the "rebels", the captain of the patrol team, who had long coveted Wen Yun's beauty, saw this opportunity and sent people to arrest Chen Wenyun's brother Chen Shaobai, intending to play the hero to save the beauty.

Zhu Xiang, the patrol captain, stared at Chen Wenyun, who was tearing up, with lustful eyes and said:

Wen Yun heard this and just repeated her words dully: "Captain Zhu, my brother just applied some herbs, he doesn't know anything."

Seeing this, Zhu Xiang showed a difficult expression and said, "I believe this, but the higher-ups don't.

Miss Chen, if you don't want your brother to go to jail, I have a plan."

"What's the plan?" Chen Wenyun, upon hearing this, grabbed Zhu Xiang's arm as if she had found a lifeline. "Captain Zhu, what's the plan? As long as you can get my brother out, I'll be your slave for the rest of my life!"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Xiang revealed an expression of success. Feeling the soft touch of Chen Wenyun's hands on his arms, he said, "There's no need to be a slave in the next life.

I just heard that Miss Chen is still unmarried and has no engagement.

Although I am not as handsome as Pan An, I am still considered a handsome young man in my hometown. I wonder if this is acceptable."

"Bah! Zhu Xiang, are you still a human being?" Chen Shaobai saw Zhu Xiang's evil intentions, endured the pain, turned around and cursed:

"How shameless of you to say that! You already have two concubines. How could a pure woman like my sister be interested in a pig-like thing like you?"

Zhu Xiang was furious when he heard this. He was a little fat, but it was the first time he was called a pig.

Besides, what's wrong with a concubine? After the Republic, although monogamy was advocated and there was no place for concubines, it was well known that a concubine was a concubine.

It is perfectly normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines!

Zhu Xiang thought he was still far from having a wife and two concubines!

"You're such a tough collaborator, you're so stubborn! It seems like unless I send you to jail, you won't know how powerful your Grandpa Zhu is!

Take it away! Take it away! "

Zhu Xiang simply didn't stay any longer, waved his arm, and walked towards the prison with his men.

Of course, before leaving, he did not forget to turn around and whispered to Chen Wenyun, who had already burst into tears: "Miss Chen, Zhu is at home, waiting for your news!"

...

That night, the lights were dim and Chen Wenyun stayed at home in fear.

Her parents died early, and she depended on her brother for everything. After her brother was arrested, she lost the support of her life.

She cried and cried, and after several self-struggles in her mind, she wiped away her tears and finally chose to accept her fate.

"I can't do anything about it. I'd better rescue my brother from prison as soon as possible before making a decision."

Chen Wenyun whispered to herself silently.

At this moment, she suddenly heard the sound of the wooden door downstairs, and several hurried footsteps coming up the stairs.

Just when she thought that a thief had entered, three or four people suddenly walked out from the shadows on the second floor, with a tall figure in the lead.

"I am Yang Quyun of the Furen Literary Society. I was lucky enough to survive thanks to the help of Miss Chen's brother!"

"You...you were the one who did that day..." Chen Wenyun covered her mouth and widened her eyes.

The person in front of me is the protester who was recuperating at home after being injured during the march that day.

"Don't worry, Miss Chen. I'll go save your brother!"

Chapter 387 This is to eliminate traitors for the country

If we were to talk about who started the modern revolution since the late Qing Dynasty,

I believe most people would say Sun Yat-sen.

After all, he had founded the "Xing Zhong Hui" in Honolulu in 1894, and had clearly put forward the proposition of "expelling the Tartars, restoring China, and establishing a united government."

But in the glorious history of modern revolution, there was a person who embarked on the road of revolution earlier than Sun Yat-sen.

This person is Yang Quyun.

In 1890, Yang Quyun, who was serving in the British Hong Kong government in Hong Kong, founded the "Fu Jen Literary Society" in Hong Kong. Although it was called a literary society, it was actually a base for discussing the politics of the Qing Dynasty.

Moreover, Yang Qu Lingyun also proposed the idea of ​​"overthrowing the Manchu Qing Dynasty, establishing a united government, and electing the Prime Minister" within the Fu Jen Literary Society.

In terms of time, this was four years earlier than Sun Yat-sen's proposal to "expel the Tartars."

In addition to his "qualifications", there is another more powerful evidence that is enough to illustrate Yang Quyun's importance in the early anti-Qing revolutionary cause.

The first president of the Xingzhonghui was actually Yang Quyun.

This Xing Zhong Hui was not the Xing Zhong Hui founded in Honolulu, but the Xing Zhong Hui in Hong Kong that launched the failed Guangzhou Uprising in 1895.

After Sun Yat-sen founded the Xingzhonghui in Honolulu, he returned to Hong Kong to look for like-minded people, and he and Yeung Qu-yun hit it off immediately.

Later, Yang Quyun simply merged the "Fu Jen Literary Society" with the "Xing Zhong Hui", and the merged organization was still called the Xing Zhong Hui.

And Yang Quyun was elected as the president of this emerging society.

Why would Sun Yat-sen, such a person who loves to show off, be willing to give up the position of general?

The fact is that Fu Jen Literary Society must have played an extremely important role in this.

The Xingzhonghui, a political party that had only been established overseas for half a year, was able to raise the human, material and financial resources needed for the first Guangzhou Uprising, which was closely related to the foundation laid by Yang Quyun in Hong Kong.

Just like how Sun Yat-sen later had to give up the position of provisional president of the Republic of China and give it to Yuan Shikai.

The situation is such that we have no choice but to give in.

After all, Sun Yat-sen was not a "revolutionary leader" from the beginning.

Chiang Kai-shek was once willing to pay 100 million yuan to buy a group photo with Yang Quyun sitting in the center and Sun Yat-sen standing in the back row.

The reason is, "It would be truly embarrassing if people saw us, the great President of the Republic of China, occupying the position of a follower."

This is enough to show that, at least before the revolutionaries became famous through the uprising, Yang Quyun was the undisputed leader of the revolutionary party of Xingzhonghui.

Moreover, in history, Sun Yat-sen went to Tianjin in 1894 to seek an audience with Li Hongzhang but was refused, and then he went to Honolulu and eventually founded the Xingzhonghui.

If Li Hongzhang had met with Sun Yat-sen and adopted his proposal to save the country, would Sun Yat-sen have suddenly transformed into a reformist instead of a revolutionary?

Yang Quyun was different. When he first founded the Fu Jen Literary Society, he was a supporter of the republic.

It is a pity that after Yang Quyun was assassinated by the Qing Dynasty in 1901, he had no connection with the subsequent revolutionary uprisings such as the Zhennan Pass Uprising, the Huanghuagang Uprising, and the Wuchang Uprising.

After the Xinhai Revolution, the Xingzhonghui was deified by later historians, and Sun Yat-sen was also regarded as the first revolutionary in the late Qing Dynasty.

But if Yang Quyun didn’t die, what would the future be like?

There are no "ifs" in history, but some things are worth thinking about by future generations.

In this time and space, after the news of Yuan Shikai's establishment of the Republic came, Yang Quyun quickly used the Fu Jen Literary Society as a base to start the Southern Republic Newspaper to discuss politics.

After a few visits, intelligence personnel from the former Red Confucian Society's Intelligence Search Section, now the Social Revolutionary Party's Intelligence Search Section (hereinafter referred to as the Social Search Section) came to him and secretly joined the Social Revolutionary Party.

Yang Quyun was originally just a casual move by Yuan Shikai. If the talks went smoothly, he would not be needed.

However, after the talks broke down, Yang Quyun, who had been developing in Hong Kong for a long time, provided Yuan Shikai with a certain degree of countermeasures.

For Social Revolutionary Party members like Yang Quyun who still hold the "early revolutionary spirit", assassination is all too familiar.

Guangdong and Guangxi already had numerous gangs and assassinations were rampant, which is why the Tongmenghui, which originated in Guangdong, had so many assassinations of high-ranking Qing officials in history.

Since he had already torn his relationship with Li Hongzhang, Yuan Shikai no longer planned to care about anything.

If you can assassinate, why can't I?

No, it should be said another way. The assassination by the Republican government was not assassination, but the elimination of traitors for the country.

Get rid of those traitors who attempt to support personal dictatorship and oppose the republican government.

...

After saying goodbye to Chen Wenyun, Yang Quyun hurried to the vicinity of Huangpu Wharf, intending to meet an extremely important person.

The city of Guangzhou is now in a state of panic and people are watching the streets with fear.
