Section 63 Scattering of Stars
After three rounds of wine, five flavors of food, at this moment of gathering and parting, many people in the Restoration Society sang loudly and drank heartily, that is, Cai Yuanpei, who was the most serious and cautious upstairs, also let go of the amount of wine one after another, drank this cup of wine happily, and took the past merits and the sadness of parting, all in one gulp.
Speaking of which, since the beginning of this Hongmen, many of these non-governmental associations have been used to resist the imperial court and rebel against the revolution, so many of them have adopted a secret membership system. The Restoration Society is naturally no exception, so this time for drinking, many people know that most of their relatives and friends are also members of the Restoration Society!
This time is even more joyful, and this wine is naturally even more enjoyable. Over there, Cai Yuanpei drank to a happy place, and suddenly remembered something, so he said to everyone through the wine: "Now the five-color flag of our Restoration Society has become the national flag of the Republic of China; In the future, we will be in charge of the education of the world, and we will naturally have to think about the national anthem. I have heard the national anthem of the Qing Dynasty, although it was written by Mr. Yan Jidao, it is no longer in harmony. Think about it, is there anything suitable? ”
"Isn't Brother Xiao Min already openly soliciting?" Zhang Taiyan was a little drunk, squinted at Cai Yuanpei, and said crookedly: "Isn't there a suitable one?" ”
Cai Yuanpei shook his head, "Although some melodies are good and magnificent, I always feel that something is missing." Saying that, Cai Yuanpei turned his head to look at Zhu Chongzhen on the side, and asked with a smile: "I have heard that the King of Han is erudite and talented, and he is good at music and rhythm, I don't know if I have any suggestions?" ”
Zhu Chongzhen laughed, and was about to answer, when he suddenly heard a commotion downstairs, and then a few angry scoldings came up, and the sound of many dishes breaking and tables and chairs overturning was sandwiched in it, and everyone couldn't help but be stunned, I don't know what happened downstairs in this good way?
Zhu Chongzhen didn't drink much, his mind was still clear, he got up and walked quickly to the stone fence, looking by the railing, only to see the beachhead in the distance downstairs, surrounded by several turns, one of them, dancing with a stick, while dancing desperately, while cursing loudly. There is a way that one husband is desperate, and ten thousand people can't stop it. Now this man is dancing with a stick as if he is struggling for his life, and although there are many good players of the Restoration Society around, he can't catch that person for a while.
It was a little far away, and what the man was shouting in his mouth was not very clear to Ba Yong upstairs. It's just a few intermittent words coming from the wind, what "Changshu" and "renting grain". Zhu Chongzhen was about to stop drinking, when he suddenly heard a voice next to him shouting in surprise: "Three fishes? ”
Zhu Chongzhen looked back, but it was Yin Ruizhi.
"Do you know that man?"
"I know, that person is the boat owner who carried me in Suzhou, called Sanyu. I just don't know why he's here. ”
"Let's go down and have a look." Zhu Chongzhen knew that something was wrong, so he lifted his breath, flew downstairs, and in a few vertical jumps, he came to the crowd, and with a wave of his hand, the purple emperor blade flashed in the air, and he cut off the stick in the hand of the three fish, and there was no stick to defend himself, but two breaths, the three fish were caught by the good hand of the recovery society next to him.
"You brutes!" Sanyuyuan stared at a pair of blood-red eyes, struggling desperately there, almost breaking free several times.
"Third brother!" Yin Ruizhi came to Sanyu's side and asked in surprise, "Third brother, what's wrong with you, what's wrong?" ”
I didn't want Sanyu to see Yin Ruizhi, he was even more crazy, the green tendons on his head were tensed, and beads of sweat burst out like arrows, Sanyu struggled, but shouted angrily at Yin Ruizhi in his mouth: "You still have the face to dare to appear in front of me?" I really don't think it's worth it, brother, and I lost my life for people like you. If I knew that you were such a person, I, Sanyu, would have fought for my life, and I should have killed you that day! ”
These words were inexplicable, Yin Ruizhi frowned, waved his hand, asked the brothers to get out of the way, and then said to Sanyu: "Third brother, what's the matter, you tell me, if I recover, I will be sorry for my father and wife in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and I, Yin Ruizhi, will give an explanation to my father and fellow villagers!" ”
After Sanyu was let go, he no longer struggled, just stared at Yin Ruizhi blankly for a while, and suddenly squatted on the ground, hugged his head and cried. His crying made the people around him even more confused.
"Chen Sanyu?" Someone in the crowd of the Restoration Society suddenly realized, "You are Chen Sanyu of the Changshu Thousand People Association?" ”
A thousand people? Zhu Chongzhen thought about it for a while and knew what was going on. After Wu Luzhen was disabled that day, Zhu Chongzhen secretly traveled to various places to watch the revolutionary situation, and also heard that in the Changshu area of Wuxi, there were 1,000 people who would gather the disciples, occupy the county government, and also play the revolutionary banner. But in just a few days, it was quelled by Zhenjiang and Suzhou sending troops together. If this Chen Sanyu is the leader of the Thousand People Association, I am afraid that he will also escape death.
Chen Sanyu cried for a while, and when he heard someone call out "Thousand People Meeting", he stopped crying, stood up, wiped away his tears a few times, and his face was solemn.
"Yes, I am the fish that slipped through the net of the Thousand People Association, Chen Sanyu!"
"I'm here today to ask you for justice! I would like to ask you, the self-proclaimed revolutionary knights, why can you make a revolution, but we can't? Look ahead, when did China change its dynasty and not be rent-free and food-free? Even when the hair was messy, it was no exception! Why is it that when you come to you today, you are more vicious than the Manchurians, increasing rent and food, and bent on cutting off our way of life? ”
Speaking of sadness, Chen Sanyu violently tore open the placket of his chest, revealing his skinny chest, and roared at the people of the Restoration Society: "What are you going to do? Don't you really see that we have something to eat and live a stable life for a few years? It's a hero, let's make it clear today, although our lives are like ants, but if you want us to die, we won't let you have a good time! ”
These words made everyone look at each other, and they lowered their heads one by one, and no one dared to look at Sanyu directly.
This Xinhai change, all parts of the south are expanding the army, to expand the army, it is necessary to have food and salary, although the implementation of the new policy of the Qing Dynasty in recent years, the effect is remarkable, and there are some deposits of silver in various places. But where can these deposits withstand the squandering of this chaos? What's more, after the armistice was boycotted, the north and the south negotiated peace, and most of the military salaries were thrown into the Qinglou tile, if it wasn't for Zhu Chongzhen's seven killing orders, I am afraid of this absurdity, and I don't know when it will be over?
Where will this bread come from? The wool comes out of the sheep, and the people in Jiangsu and Zhejiang are not suffering? Presumably, the Thousand People Association resisted rent and did not pay it because of this, but even if they played the banner of revolution, who would be able to tolerate them?
In the final analysis, in this Xinhai change, all kinds of desires are flourishing, all kinds of schemes are overturned, everyone wants to use everyone's selfish desires to become their own desires, and in the end, the suffering still falls on the civilians who stay out of the matter and do not participate.
Now Sanyu asked these words, but after all, there was no answer. Among the people in front of him, Zhu Chongzhen was the most clear in his heart, and he was also the most emotional, you must know that this restructuring turmoil, in fact, has just begun!
Therefore, after smiling bitterly, Zhu Chongzhen took out a few silver tickets from his arms and handed them to Yin Ruizhi, asking her to take Sanyu away and appease her.
When everyone sat down again, they were no longer interested. Just drinking there, for a while, upstairs and downstairs, the beachhead was four-dimensional, only the wind blew the dead wood, and hissed.
Now this revolution, this Republic of China, the reform for which the Restoration Society has fought and shed blood for seven years, what is it?
"Through the ages, the eight wings of the building, the country will be left with future generations. The water passes through the south for 3,000 miles, and the air pressure is 14 cities in Jiangzhou. Zhang Binglin let out a long sigh and said in a low voice.
"Now that the Republic of China has been founded, this labor pain should finally pass. What exactly did our Restoration Society do, right and wrong, future generations have their own opinions, so why should we be sad here? Come, let's have another drink, after today, I don't know when I can meet again and have a drink with all of you! ”
"Exactly!" Zhu Chongzhen raised his glass and reconciled, "Persuade you to drink a glass of wine, there is no one in Yangguan in the west!" ”
The two of them finished talking, raising their glasses, but they heard a low burst of singing downstairs. Everyone listened carefully, but it was the song that Xu Xilin often hummed after returning from his trip to the three northeastern provinces. This military song, all the recovered members who were born in the Datong Normal School, are extremely familiar with it nine times out of ten.
It turned out that Fan Ainong downstairs saw that everyone was excited, and a few people even got up and were about to leave. Fan Ainong suddenly felt a feeling in his heart, stood up suddenly, and said to everyone:
"Today's farewell, you and I comrades go to the end of the world, I don't know when we can meet. Now that the wine is exhausted and the prosperity is about to run out, it is better for you and me to sing the military song of our Liberation Army again. This is Master Xu's favorite song, and today we will say goodbye with songs, and it should be to comfort the martyrs who died in the country! ”
After speaking, Fan Ainong began to sing:
"The wolf smoke rises, and the country looks north to ......"
Fan Ainong's voice is not loud, but this song reminds many people of the past, the Restoration Society was founded for seven years, founded the school, and the teachers fought together, and now the Republic of China is founded, but I don't know how many classmates and teachers have been buried in other places. So Fan Ainong sang together, and dozens of people reconciled, and after a while, the recovered congregation on the beach of the eight wings all sang loudly and loudly:
"The wolf smoke rises and the rivers and mountains look north
Dragon flag roll/horse long hiss/sword qi is like frost
The heart is like the Yellow River
Twenty years between vertical and horizontal / Who can fight
Hatred / Long knife to the head
How many siblings are buried in their bones
What a pity to die to repay the family and country
Endure the sigh / more speechless / blood and tears in my eyes
The horseshoe goes south / the man looks north
People look north/the grass is green and yellow/the dust is flying
I am willing to defend the territory and reopen the territory
The dignified China wants to give way to the Quartet
Congratulations ......"
After a song, everyone in the Liberation Congregation looked at each other and laughed, and many of them said goodbye and left!
"Brother Weisun (Gong Baoquan), what are you going to do in the future?"
"The King of Han has an order to go to my hometown to start a library, which can be regarded as benefiting Zixiang, right? What about you? ”
"The Datong Normal School founded by my brother still needs to be encouraged, my second brother and the third brother and I plan to go back and sort it out well, we can't waste the hard work of the eldest brother and Qiu Jingxiong back then!"
"Are the Yin brothers and sisters going with you?"
"No, King Han wants them to study abroad. Now that the revolution has been successful, they have even better years! ”
"That's right, now that the Republic of China has been created, a new life is about to open!"
"Where's Brother Zhongfu?"
"Deqian and Yuting and I are going to compile the Restoration Chronicles, and after compiling them, we will go to Beijing."
"Such a big thing, Zhongfu has worked hard! Take care! ”
"Take care!"
Looking at the people downstairs singing and leaving, Zhu Chongzhen smiled at Cai Yuanpei:
"Don't Mr. Xiaomin think that this military song of the Liberation Society, this song of loyalty to the country, is the best national anthem?"
