The forty-seventh episode Liang Qichao took out the emperor's decree
Liang Qichao's shout not only frightened Yuan Shikai, but also Bi Yongnian and Gongren, and hurriedly followed Yuan Shikai to kneel down and listen to the order. Gong Ren learned all kinds of theories to protest against imperial power, and at this time he didn't know which country he had run to.
Liang Qichao solemnly took out a piece of brocade silk from his arms, and read it in a loud voice: "Yuan Shikai is the envoy of Zhili to wait for the emperor's order!" β
Yuan Shikai was so frightened that he trembled, there was no longer any wordiness in his mouth, and his heart was like beating a small drum, "dong dong" kept ringing.
Liang Qichao unfolded the brocade silk and said: "According to the direct subordinate inspector Yuan Shikai to listen to the order, all major events in the court in the future will be arranged by Kang Youwei and Liang Qichao. Chin thisβ"
Liang Qichao read out the emperor's edict, and then handed it to Yuan Shikai for an interview. Yuan Shikai observed carefully, and it was indeed the handwriting and seal of Guangxu Zaiyan. Yuan Shikai wanted to take the emperor's edict and collect it well, but he was put away by Liang Qichao and put it in his arms.
Yuan Shikai thought that this edict was vague and unclear, making it difficult for his subordinates to figure it out. All the major events in the DPRK and China, what are the major events? Could it be that the contradiction between the imperialist party and the post-party has further expanded, which makes me caught in the middle and find it difficult. And then there is this edict, which should have been collected by me, but Liang Qichao just put it away, presumably because he was afraid that he would leave something bad in the future. Whether it is the imperial party or the rear party, they are the objects of their contention, they must be careful, if they are not careful, they will fall into the abyss, and it is strange if they are not crushed!
Yuan Shikai slowly stood up, arched his hand to Liang Qichao and said, "Seeing that Liang Gong is like the emperor in person, what are your orders, please ask Liang Gong to say that it doesn't matter, the student dares not to work?" β
Liang Qichao beckoned, and the four of them sat back in their seats, stabilizing each other's spirits. Liang Qichao smiled and said to Yuan Shikai: "Actually, it's nothing, the situation has changed recently, Yuan Gong may have heard it!" Changing the law to become strong and saving the people from fire and water is really the trend of the times, and it is also the heart of every courtier who should be loyal to the monarch and patriotic for the people. In order to ensure the safety of the emperor, I don't need Yuan Gong to do anything, I just want to borrow some soldiers from Yuan Gong for a use, I don't know if Yuan Gong is cutting love? β
Yuan Shikai thought to himself, I was afraid that he would touch on the issue of military power, and Liang Qichao would still talk about it. The matter of borrowing troops is very important, that is, there is no business of one's own, and the soldiers who go out of their own hands are also said to be their own business, so how can they get out of it? But Yuan Shikai still asked respectfully on the surface: "I don't know how many soldiers to borrow?" β
Liang Qichao said: "Just borrow two bids, right?" β
Yuan Shikai sighed and said, "Liang Gong values me too much, these two bidders, students really have no power." I wonder if the queen knows? β
Liang Qichao hesitated slightly, and said: "Since the emperor has come to sovereignty in person, I think there is no need to tell the queen mother about this little thing!" Yuan Shikai said: "But I think it's always inappropriate not to let the queen know about it." Liang Qichao said: "This matter is not for the subordinates to ask." If you feel really embarrassed, a standard will do! β
Yuan Shikai thought to himself that more than 1,000 well-trained new troops were enough to turn Beijing upside down, but his face was only submissive, and he said vaguely: "Students will work hard to do it, and leave me some time for exercise." However, I still have to ask, even if this target force is handed over to you, I don't know who will command it? β
Liang Qichao waved his hand, pointed at Bi Yongnian and said, "It's up to this Mr. Bi to contact." How dare you command, of course, this new army is still commanded by Lord Yuan, where can others command. β
Liang Qichao is quite smart, he didn't dare to say that he handed over the command of the army to Bi Yongnian, and he didn't fall for Yuan Shikai's set. Yuan Shikai nodded, thinking to himself, if you change the soup or not the medicine, the army is not launched by me, but he said: "I think too, these new armies are arrogant and ruthless, and it may be difficult for others to command them." β
Liang Qichao saw that since Yuan Shikai had relented, it was not easy to ask questions after him, so he hurriedly changed the topic, and talked about the great truth of loyalty and patriotism for a while, and saw that it was not too early, so he hurriedly said goodbye to Yuan Shikai. Yuan Shikai didn't keep it, and sent the three of them respectfully to the gate.
After getting out of Yuan Shikai's gate, the three of them were relieved, and hurriedly went to Tan Sitong's residence again to discuss major matters.
Back at Tan's house, Liang Qichao briefly recounted the matter discussed with Yuan Shikai, and Tan Sitong shouted: "Okay! As long as Yuan Shikai is willing to borrow troops, the day after tomorrow it happens that the Empress Dowager Cixi wants to enjoy the moon and cool in the Summer Palace, and the emperor also goes, we will say that the emperor is in trouble, lead these soldiers to kill them, make things bigger, and take the opportunity to kill the Empress Dowager Xi. As long as the Empress Dowager Xi dies, the emperor shouts, who dares to resist and disobey! β
Liang Qichao nodded and said, "The matter has come to this, whether it succeeds or fails, you can only take a risk." β
At this time, Bi Yongnian, who had not spoken, suddenly said: "I don't think this matter is absolutely impossible? β
As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked, and Tan Sitong and Liang Qichao both looked at Bi Yongnian with puzzled eyes. Gongren's heart was also a little hesitant, I don't know what Bi Yongnian thinks in his heart?
Bi Yongnian said with a gloomy face: "I carefully observed Yuan Shikai. This person is insidious and cunning, duplicitous, and has a great city, and he does not dare to offend Cixi and Ronglu, because their power is too great. Didn't he know how powerful this borrowed soldier was? Once the troops are borrowed, they will never be able to get off Guangxu's ship again. If Yuan Shikai doesn't know about this matter, then it's easy to do, if he knows about it, I'm afraid that it will be a lack of success, and we will die without a place to be buried! β
Liang Qichao was silent. Tan Sitong said: "Brother don't be alarmist! According to you, there is no reason for success in this matter? β
Bi Yongnian replied: "The crux of the matter is that if you borrow soldiers, these soldiers will obey Yuan Shikai's orders, not our orders. There is still a lot of work to be done in this specific implementation, and every detail is omitted, and the whole situation is lost. This is a no-no! It's not that I'm afraid of death, it's a ridiculous and hopeless plan, I can't take on this heavy responsibility, you better ask for another skill, right? β
Tan Si was a little angry at the same time, and shouted: "You! You! You! Escaping, I'm afraid this is not my brother's doing? β
Bi Yongnian said to Tan Sitong seriously: "According to the experience of our party, this matter has been leaked. At this time, why should you be reckless and take your neck and slam it into the enemy's knife. Not only do I have to dodge, but I also advise Lord Liang that Brother Tan should think of a way out quickly, otherwise his life will be lost. β
Tan Sitong said loudly: "You can run away, can I run, I can't!" I want to follow the emperor to change the law and try to become stronger, even if the change fails, I will also sprinkle my blood on the cause of changing the law. I want to use my blood to wake up the people of China that only by changing the law can there be hope for China. β
Bi Yongnian shook his head and said: "This is extremely stupid, why should you use your precious life to save the mansion that is about to collapse in the Qing Dynasty!" Liang Gong, Brother Tan, I hope you will do it yourself, I will not accompany you. After speaking, he gave Gong Ren a look and said, "Brother Gong Ren, let's go!" β
Liang Qichao suddenly stopped Bi Yongnian and said: "Bi Longtou, although everyone has their own ambitions and can't be forced, I still hope that you can stay and help us!" Bi Yongnian shook his head and said: "This loyalty to the emperor and anti-Qing restoration are not the same way, and this favor really can't help today." Rather than risk our lives here, it is better to go to the revolution. As he spoke, he pulled Gong Ren and was about to walk towards the door.
Gong Ren suddenly grabbed Bi Yongnian and said: "Brother Bi, although Yuan Shikai is unreliable, things have moved to this extent, even Yuan Shikai is against water, and we have to see how he is against water." Anyway, it's only two days until August 15th, how about we continue to give Yuan Shikai eye medicine tomorrow and force him to rebel? β
Bi Yongnian didn't expect that Gongren didn't agree to leave Beijing, and he had to give Yuan Shikai eye medicine, I don't know how this eye medicine works? It doesn't matter if you die in this place, and you are in danger of losing your head all the time, but the hundreds of thousands of brothers of the Brotherhood are still waiting for their own presiding over in person, and after thinking about it again and again, they have to say: "Since Brother Gongren and you have agreed to do this, then I will stay for the time being and make a final effort!" β
