February 17, 1912, the 30th day of the lunar month, Chinese New Year's Eve; Zhejiang Jinhua, eight wings.

On this day, the Eight Wing Towers are much more lively than in the past. Early in the morning, a large number of soldiers dressed in the uniforms of the new army came, and along the wide beach downstairs, a dozen tables were set up, and the tables extended upstairs to the depths that could not be seen.

In the afternoon, as soon as the sun was passing in the west, a large crowd came. Although these people have mixed accents and can hear them, they are all villagers from these southeastern provinces. In a short time, the beachhead was full.

But now that the Republic of China has been founded, the revolution has been successful, and the mission of the Restoration Society has been completed.

In the blink of an eye, the sun gradually slanted westward, although the wind barrier was pulled up around the Eight Wing Towers, but the north wind in this winter still blew a little cold on people's bodies, but at this moment, who still feels the cold on their bodies? Everyone's heart is full of joy and excitement!

When Cai Yuanpei, Zhang Binglin and several founding elders of the Alliance Association appeared on the Bayong Tower, everyone immediately cheered.

Cai Yuanpei looked at the hundreds of brothers of the Restoration Society downstairs, and suddenly remembered the late autumn seven years ago, when he and Tao Chengzhang, Gong Baoquan, Wei Lan and others founded the Restoration Society in Shanghai. Seven years have passed in a flash, and at that time, the revolution was still like a sparkle of stars; Today, the revolution has been accomplished and the Republic of China has been founded. But the many lives have passed away; The hearts of those many passions no longer beat.

"Gentlemen!" Cai Yuanpei pressed down with his hands, signaling everyone to be quiet, and when the voices downstairs were silent, Cai Yuanpei continued loudly: "When you join the Restoration Society, you should know the foundation of the Restoration Society, and you should also know the oath of the Restoration Society. Today, the constitution was created, the Republic of China should be established, and the mission of our generation has been completed. After getting drunk with you today, the Restoration Society will be disbanded from then on, and I and you should work hard to continue to contribute your sweat and blood to the Republic of China, and work hard for the rise of our Chinese nation! ”

Cai Yuanpei's voice landed, and Siye was silent, but after a while, among the people downstairs, someone suddenly started crying. The cry seemed to be contagious, and after a while, many of those present wept bitterly.

For a while, in front of the huge Eight Wing Tower, there was a burst of painful crying and flew up, rippling around.

Yes, in the past seven years, how many heroes and heroes in the Restoration Society have recklessly rejuvenated their lives and spilled their blood for the founding of the Republic of China, and others don't say it, it is Xu Xilin, who did not hesitate to die to set off a national revolutionary trend, and after his death, he was dissected by the Manchu Qing Dynasty and his liver was dug out, and there was no corpse. But without Xu Xilin's brave death, how could everyone in the Manchu aristocracy be in danger, and how could the national revolution be so powerful in just a few years?

Needless to say, if it weren't for the fact that the Restoration Society had been operating for several years, propagating the revolution and encouraging the people, how could it have come to fruition like this? Attacking Hangzhou and conquering Nanjing, which time, it was not the Liberation Society that charged ahead, and the casualties were the heaviest? Now that the revolution has been accomplished, the mission has been accomplished, and it is about to be disbanded suddenly, yes, everyone knows that the day of the success of the revolution is the time when the Liberation Society is dissolved, but when it comes to the present, who is willing to do it?

Upstairs, Cai Yuanpei and the others saw this kind of situation, and their hearts were also inexplicably sad, and for a while, upstairs and downstairs, either silent, or silent, all wept and were sad.

"Restore the Han nationality and return my rivers and mountains! Promise the country with your body, succeed and retire! "Upstairs in the Eight Wings, a human voice suddenly sounded, shouting loudly the oath of membership of the Liberation Society!

The voice was heroic, waking up this group of crying people, everyone looked up, but saw that on the Bayong Tower, Ma Lei stood in the wind, and beside him, it was Zhu Chongzhen, the king of Han!

"All of you are good men in China, why do you need to be here and follow the example of your daughter?"

After saying a word, Zhu Chongzhen turned over the cornices, turned to Cai Yuanpei's side, picked up a wine jar on the ground, patted open the mud seal, poured a full bowl, and then raised it and said to everyone downstairs: "Gentlemen! Chongzhen had just arrived from Xuzhou to convey good news to the monarchs. In Xuzhou City, Sun Wen has handed over the presidency to Yuan Shikai, Yuan Shikai will form a cabinet tomorrow to preside, I China, from tomorrow, will enter the Republic of China! Our Han nationality will regain control of the rivers and mountains, and the day when China rises in the world is just around the corner! ”

"For the creation of the Republic of China, for the rise of China, gentlemen, let us have a full drink!"

After that, Zhu Chongzhen lifted the wine bowl, put it to his mouth and drank it all, then turned over the wine bowl and showed everyone the bottom of the cup.

When everyone downstairs saw Zhu Chongzhen so heroic, they admired it more and more, so they lifted the wine jar, filled it one by one, drank it all, and turned over the wine bowl. Then they looked at each other, and suddenly they burst out laughing.

This wine, although it is a farewell, is a celebration!

Zhu Chongzhen picked up the wine jar, poured it for everyone upstairs one by one, picked up another bowl, and said to the downstairs: "Now the revolution has been successful, but in the past seven years, the heroes of the Liberation Society have been martyred, one after the other, how many!" Today, the revolution has been successful and the Republic of China has been founded, and they should also be comforted in the spirit of heaven. This glass of wine, we salute and martyr all the martyrs! ”

"You martyrs in the heavens, you can rest in peace!"

After that, Zhu Chongzhen reached into the bowl, dipped some wine and sprinkled it on Siye, then turned over the wine bowl and poured this glass of wine on the ground.

"Bosun, let's go!"

"Jingxiong, let's go!"

"Mikane, let's go!"

"Sir, it's a good journey!"

…… …… …… …… …… …… …… …… ……

The people downstairs, reading the names of their comrades or division commanders, poured the wine in their cups downstairs.

"This third cup, I respect the princes of the Restoration Society! If you hadn't spilled your blood, the revolution in Xinhai would not have been so easy to accomplish. All of you are people who have contributed to the country and the nation, today, let us not get drunk and not return! ”

"!"

Zhu Chongzhen said, drank the wine in the cup. Everyone laughed and drank all the wine in their glasses, and then sat down and talked about the old revolutionary events.

After three glasses of wine, Zhu Chongzhen entered the building with Cai Yuanpei and others, sat down at the table, and as soon as he sat down, Zhang Binglin quickly asked, "How?" ”

"Everything is as expected," Zhu Chongzhen said with a smile: "Yuan Shikai has already received the presidential seal, and he will officially establish the government council tomorrow." ”

Zhang Binglin frowned, a little dissatisfied, "Here are all the elders of the Restoration Society, what is King Han worried about?" I'm not asking about these crowns, I want to know, how do you distribute the three powers of politics, economy, and society with Yuan Xiangcheng and Sun Yat-sen according to Tang Ce? ”

"You just don't ask, I have to tell you something clearly," Zhu Chongzhen stretched out his hand and took a wine glass, carefully rubbed it in his hand, looked at the thin threads on the glass, rubbed it for a while, and then looked up and smiled, and continued: "Yuan Xiangcheng is naturally in charge, Sun Yat-sen is going to the right of the economy, and said that within ten years, he will build a railway of 200,000 miles to strengthen the country and enrich the people!" ”

"This Sun Wen is really still a cannon!" Zhang Binglin sneered: "Two hundred thousand miles? I'm afraid that the United States does not have such a scale, and my China is poor and weak at the moment, where can it be built? ”

Although Cai Yuanpei was a little confused, he also understood a little, and he asked tentatively: "So, there is still a right in society?" ”

"This social right is now only the right to education," Zhang Binglin preemptively explained: "That is to say, after the dissolution of the Liberation Society, it is necessary to select a number of elites among them, enrich them into education, and cultivate talents for the Republic of China!" ”

After hearing this, Cai Yuanpei laughed and said: "This is exactly what I wish in my life!" When this is a big deal! ”

After speaking, Cai Yuanpei raised his wine glass, signaled to everyone, and drank it all with his neck up.

Zhu Chongzhen heard Zhang Binglin's explanation, glanced at Zhang Binglin lightly, smiled, and didn't say anything anymore, just reached into his arms, took out a book from his arms, and handed it to Cai Yuanpei.

Cai Yuanpei stretched out his hand to take it, and when he looked at the cover, he was taken aback, only to see that the cover was written with seven big characters "List of Members of the Liberation Association".

"How could this list be in the hands of King Han?" Cai Yuanpei asked urgently.

When Bosun was killed, he entrusted the list of the Liberation Society and the Yangtze River Hanliu to Mr. Zhang Jusheng, and Mr. Zhang took great difficulty to send the list to Hawaii, and then handed it over to Tao Huanqing. After Huanqing was killed, I also thought that this list of Bosun's life would eventually disappear in the dust and smoke, but someone sent the list back and handed it over to me. ”

"The sky has eyes!" Cai Yuanpei looked at this thick directory and was full of emotion.

"Now that the revolution has been completed, the Restoration Society is about to be dissolved, but the seven years of generosity and heroism of the Restoration Society cannot be annihilated with the dissolution of the long river of history," Zhu Chongzhen rubbed his wine glass, as if he was a little nostalgic for the time when he was with Xu Xilin on the cruise ship, "I would like to ask a few masters of the Restoration Society to produce a few masters of history and literature in the Restoration Society, and according to the names on this list, to pass on the heroes of the Liberation Society, so that those who come after can know the blood and martyrs of the Restoration Society in this national revolution!" ”

"As it should be! And rightfully so! Cai Yuanpei nodded and replied, "In my recovery meeting, if you talk about talent and learning, you should push Taiyan, I don't know what to do with Taiyan?" ”

Zhang Binglin didn't answer, but Zhu Chongzhen next to him said: "After the establishment of the Republic of China, Mr. Taiyan will go to the capital to preside over the five industries of Hanliu, I'm afraid I won't be able to separate." ”

"This ......" Cai Yuanpei hesitated, he looked at it, but saw that many people were very unfamiliar, and he faintly realized that although he was the leader of the Restoration Association, he had not been a director for a long time, and he was actually very unfamiliar with the affairs of the personnel in the meeting.

When Cai Yuanpei was hesitating, a person suddenly stood up in the seat next to him, strode to this side, arched his hand at Cai Yuanpei, Zhu Chongzhen and others, and said loudly: "I just heard that the King of Han wants to find someone to set up a biography for the Restoration Society, but is it true?" ”

Zhu Chongzhen was surprised when he saw that person was majestic and dignified, nodded in his heart, and said, "Yes, is there a candidate for Brother Tai?" ”

"Of course!"

"Who does Brother Tai recommend?"

"No, it's just me!"

"Who are you?"

"Chen Qingtong!"

At this time, Zhang Binglin's students Qian Xuantong and Zhou Shuren had already leaned over, and seeing that Chen Qingtong said simply, Qian Xuantong introduced to everyone: "Brother Zhongfu is the head of the Anhui Restoration Association, and he was the secretary general of the Anhui Provincial Governor's Office during the Xinhai Revolution. ”

"It's you!" Zhu Chongzhen said with a smile: "Since it is you, this matter of inheritance is handed over to you, but it is entrusted to you!" ”
