After coming out of the Beiping Army Prison, Cheng She said: "I think we should appeal through the newspaper to prevent this inhumane thing from happening again." ”

"It's time to appeal and urge the government to improve the situation of prisoners." Hu Shi nodded in agreement, he still didn't realize that he was being used as a gun by leftists.

Yang Xingfo said solemnly: "I will arrange it, I hope the three gentlemen will cooperate more." ”

"Definitely, definitely!" Everyone agreed.

Hu Shi and Cheng She both live in Beiping, and we each called a rickshaw to go home.

Zhou Hexuan followed Yang Xingfo to the hotel, and on the way, Zhou Hexuan said in a low voice: "Brother Hongfu, are you going to play a big battle?" ”

Yang Xingfo was stunned for a moment, and then smiled a little embarrassedly: "Mingcheng's eyes are like torches, and he really can't escape your eyes." I am ready to use the influence of you, Hu Shizhi, and Cheng She, to publish a newspaper calling on the central government to release all political (harmonious) criminals. Because I was afraid of leaking the news, I didn't tell me in advance, and I asked Brother Mingcheng Haihan. ”

Zhou Hexuan shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I don't care, I'm afraid Hu Shi will be furious when he finds out." ”

"First cut and then play, that's the only way," Yang Xingfo said, "I have been friends with Hu Shizhi for many years, and with his temper, he definitely doesn't agree with our approach." ”

Zhou Hexuan reminded: "Whether this matter is successful or not, Brother Hongfu, you are extremely dangerous. I hope you can go overseas to avoid the limelight and return to China after a year and a half, otherwise Lao Jiang will definitely attack you. ”

Yang Xingfo refused: "Brother Mingcheng, thank you for your kindness." But at this time, the Civil Rights League was a new creation, and I needed to connect with it. If I leave, many of the affairs of the Civil Rights League will come to a halt, and how can I ignore the interests of the people of the country for my own selfishness? ”

"But if you are poisoned by the authorities, the Civil Rights League will be doomed! If a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall, Brother Hongfu please think twice. Zhou Hexuan continued to persuade.

"Don't persuade anymore, I've made up my mind." Yang Xingfo waved his hand and said.

"Alas!" Zhou Hexuan could only sigh.

Lao Jiang is determined to kill the people, unless he flees abroad or the warlord's territory, how can he be spared?

It's useless to hide in the concession, the historical Yang Xingfo was assassinated in the French Concession in Shanghai, and Dai Li personally planned and arranged it.

Yang Xingfo saw Zhou Hexuan's sad look, but smiled and comforted: "Brother Mingcheng, life and death have their own destiny, as long as you die as you deserve, don't be a daughter." Besides, Lao Jiang may not dare to kill me, but my Yang Quan was also Mr. Zhongshan's secretary. ”

Zhou Hexuan smiled bitterly and said, "Then I won't talk more, let's go, let's go to Shima for a drink!" ”

Xu Zhimo's contacts are very extensive, whether it is a warlord, a politician, a scholar, or an entrepreneur...... It seems that he has all known friends. For example, Yang Xingfo is Xu Zhimo's best friend, and in history, the last pen and ink left by Xu Zhimo before his death in the air crash were all notes written to Yang Xingfo, which was regarded as "Xu Zhimo's last pen to his friends".

The two came to the street near Peking University together, where Xu Zhimo lives now, and he has moved out of Hu Shi's house.

It is a small three-storey building with more than a dozen tenants living in it. Although Xu Zhimo had a tight life, he still rented three rooms, a study, a bedroom, and a living room.

"Shima, let's drink!" Yang Xingfo knocked on the door and shouted.

Xu Zhimo opened the door and immediately said happily: "Hongfu, Mingcheng, why are you here together?" ”

Zhou Hexuan grabbed his sleeve and pulled it out: "Lock the door quickly, let's drink together." ”

"Wait a minute, I'll get the key." Xu Zhimo happily ran back to the room.

The three of them found a small restaurant nearby, ordered a few home-cooked side dishes, and started drinking and chatting.

Zhou Hexuan asked casually: "Are you okay with Xiaoman?" ”

Xu Zhimo reluctantly smiled: "She still doesn't agree to come to live in Beiping, and I only have to go back two or three times a month." Alas, after this semester is finished, I plan to resign and return to Shanghai, after all, it is not good for husband and wife to live apart for a long time. ”

"Break it." Zhou Hexuan persuaded that when he returned to China this time, he heard many bad rumors about Lu Xiaoman when he was in Shanghai.

Xu Zhimo smiled and didn't speak, he had been trapped by Lu Xiaoman, and he really couldn't make a decision to divorce.

Zhou Hexuan was not easy to persuade again, and turned to talk about the Great Wall War of Resistance. Yang Xingfo was indignant about this, and scolded Chang Kaishen for ignoring the large-scale attack of the Japanese invaders.

By the way, at this time, Chang Kaishen was doing his best to "suppress bandits", and not a single soldier was sent to the north to help. It was not until the Japanese invaders occupied Changde, the provincial capital of Rehe, that Chang Kaishen transferred three divisions to the Great Wall to resist the Japanese, one of which was formed by integrating miscellaneous troops before the Central Plains War.

Yang Xingfo scolded, drank a few more glasses of wine, and began to get a little upset. However, he has good self-control, and he resolutely refuses to drink again when he is slightly drunk, until he says that he still has business to do tomorrow.

What is Yang Xingfo's business?

Of course, it is playing against the central government, and it moves very quickly.

The next day, an English-language letter exposing the prison's shady scene was revealed in newspapers and even distributed as propaganda material for the Civil Rights League.

This letter was most likely secretly stuffed to Yang Xingfo by the underground party when he visited the prison that day. I don't know what method they used, Zhou Hexuan didn't find out at the time, maybe it was given when he shook hands at the end.

Under the deliberate promotion of Mrs. Sun, Lu Xun and others, the entire Left Federation and many media helped to publicize it, and even stabbed newspapers all over the world, causing an uproar in public opinion for a while.

"How can this be justified, how can this be justified!"

Hu Shi still learned about this from the newspaper, and then immediately called Yang Xingfo and scolded this old friend. He carefully recalled the whole incident, and immediately understood that he had been cheated - he went to visit the prison on the day the Beiping branch was established, and the English letter revealing the shady scenes of the prison was made public the next day, saying that it was not planned in advance, who would believe it?

What Hu Shi felt most angry about was that he didn't know what English letters there were, and he was kept in the dark from beginning to end. And Yang Xingfo and others also used his name Hu Shi when they were publicizing, and kept saying that Hu Shi was a witness to the shady scene in the prison.

What a fool!

Hu Shi felt that his IQ had been insulted.

On the day he visited the prison, he made suggestions to Wang Zhuoran, asking for improvements in the living conditions of the prisoners. Wang Zhuoran also wrote back to him, saying that he had told Zhang Xueliang to do so, hoping that his suggestions could be fully realized.

But as a result, only three days later, he received a quick letter from Mrs. Sun's secretary Smedley, with a copy of the "Beiping Military Branch's Complaint for Reflecting on the Political (Harmonious) Criminals of the Yuan", and demanding the immediate and unconditional release of all political (harmonious) criminals.

Hu Shi was angry, and immediately wrote a letter to Cai Yuanpei and Lin Yutang, resolutely severing all relationships. He said that he had not seen the prisoners being mistreated, and that someone had written a letter of complaint pretending to be him, which was also forged.

Immediately afterward, Hu Shi wrote a letter to the newspaper, firmly denying that the prisoners in the prison were being abused, saying that the English letter that exposed the shady scenes was also forged.

This is not the end, Hu Shi simply wrote another article and published it in the newspaper, after telling his own concept of civil rights, he also said that the civil rights league was manipulated and used by one or two people. The "one or two people" actually allude to Mrs. Sun and Yang Xingfo, which is too limited, which is equivalent to drawing a clear political line with Shanghai.

So, the headquarters of the Civil Rights League called a meeting to vote on whether to expel Hu Shih.

The vigorous "China Civil Rights Protection League" has only been established for a month or two, and now it has become a big joke. Before the Kuomintang could take matters into its own hands, the organization had already split itself, and a large number of right-leaning democrats were planning to withdraw from the alliance.

Until March 7, Rehe was completely occupied by the Japanese, and the people of the whole country were filled with righteous indignation and unanimously condemned Chang Kaishen and Zhang Xueliang for losing power and humiliating the country.

Zhang Xueliang was determined to resist Japan this time, but he also felt disheartened when he got such a result. In the face of bad public opinion and the situation, Zhang Xueliang called the central government on the day of the fall of Rehe, saying that he would take the blame and resign, and then sent a telegram to the wilderness.

Of course, Shimono is fake.

The army is still in the hands of Zhang Xueliang's henchmen, and when he returns from a trip to Europe, everything will be business as usual.

Due to Zhang Xueliang's sudden departure from the wilderness, the political situation in Beiping was still chaotic for a few days. Wang Zhuoran took the opportunity to act in chaos and released the underground party in several prisons, but it did not attract anyone's attention.
