After the outbreak of the Winter Palace Massacre, the whole Petersburg was depressed, in this cold winter Petersburg was even colder, although a heavy snow the next day completely painted the Hermitage Square, but the pent-up anger in the hearts of the people was more turbulent, just waiting for an opportunity to erupt.

After three or five days, ordinary citizens, workers, and students of Petersburg received a leaflet that read: "All Petersburg friends who love the Motherland:

From the morning of November 21, the procession of workers of the factories in the city to the Winter Palace began to assemble in the workers' districts: outside the Narva and Neva checkpoints, in the Vyborg and St. Petersburg districts, on Vasily Island and other islands. The workers intended to present to the tsar a petition about their urgent economic demands and political rights. The workers were going to hold a peaceful demonstration, so they didn't bring any weapons. Someone tried to convince the workers that the tsar would come out to receive the people, listen to the people's demands and immediately give instructions to meet them. But the Tsar, as the head of ministers, policemen, gendarmes, spies, priests, and other officials who plundered and oppressed the people, betrayed the trust of the people. He gave orders to the soldiers, through the governor-general and officers, not to allow the people to approach the Winter Palace, and he ordered the soldiers to use their weapons and shoot at the unarmed and peaceful crowd who tried to state their demands to the Tsar. Now the Tsar made it clear to the workers what kind of person he was to the people.

The tsarist army easily prevailed over the peaceful Russian people, and it is a pity that the soldiers, who were suppressed by discipline and did not know their own vital interests, carried out the tsar's criminal order and took up arms against their own brethren. The army surrounded the Winter Palace and the square in front of it, and the army fired with platoon guns at the workers who were marching with icons and flags, led by Ulyanov. The dead and wounded lay all over the square, while the wounded were collected, the shooting was carried out constantly, and the workers who were running away were attacked from behind, and on this day, about 1,000 people died in the square of the Hermitage, which is sacred to the state.

When these soldiers shot the masses of workers with bullets and slashed them with weapons such as swords, in the end their efforts succeeded and the workers retreated.

The tragedy on the Hermitage Square was not an "unfortunate accident" as stated in the "Official Gazette", but an attempted organized premeditation. On behalf of our beloved Ulyanov, the workers, the petition was handed over to the Minister of Internal Affairs Goremykin, but our Minister of the Interior detained Ulyanov and was about to be tried in the near future on charges of "inciting revolution with the intention of subverting the government" and was about to be hanged.

All the friends of St. Petersburg who love the Motherland, let us unite and support the movement to rescue Ulyanov, let us tell those nobles that the will of the people cannot be violated! ”

The leaflets were signed "Petersburg Marxist Association", for which the Minister of Internal Affairs Goremygin had to ask the Petersburg Police Department to investigate. In the Winter Palace, Nicholas II sat at his desk, while Witte and Goremygin stood worriedly, and they did not dare to hide what had happened in the past few days, and after a long time Goremygin spoke first: "Your Majesty, the minister has ordered the Petersburg Police Department to start a thorough investigation, and I believe that the mastermind behind the scenes will soon be arrested." ”

"Really?" When Nicholas II heard this, he said: "I know that now you don't even know where those people are, except for Ulyanov. The leaflet is just a result, and we don't even know where they came from. ”

Goremygin wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead and said: "Your Majesty, the secret line buried by Sverdlov is missing, and now the secret police station has no clue......

Nicholas II interrupted Goremygin and said: "So it's all the fault of a dead man?" So what am I raising you people for? "Since the Winter Palace incident, Nicholas II has made the ministers feel more and more cold, especially after the secret execution of Sverdlov, and the ministers know that this young majesty is no longer in power.

Goremygin listened to Nicholas II's reprimanding words, and said with a trembling voice: "The minister is guilty! ”

"You go and tell Malalov that there must be a result tomorrow for Ulyanov's trial." Nicholas II said lightly, "Just drive him to Siberia and let him go to Siberia to spread the word in the ice and snow!" The more this guy stays in Petersburg, the more trouble I have to have. ”

Goremygin turned to leave, and Nicholas II looked at Witte and said: "Vasya, what is the situation with the secret police now?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, the minister has made a detailed understanding of the secret police station in the past two days." Witte replied, "The minister suggests that the secret police department be independent of the government and directly accountable to His Majesty. If everything goes through the government, many things cannot be operated. ”

Nicholas II thought for a moment and said, "Do as you wish." I'm only giving you one month, and I want it to be done before the Feast of the Lord's Nativity, and I don't want this to happen again. ”

After hearing this, Witt replied respectfully: "The minister understands. ”

On December 3, 1895, in the courtroom of the St. Petersburg High Court, apart from Judge Malalov and Ulyanov, the protagonist of today's trial, Witte was also there, and there was no one but the prison guards. There were no spectators, no jury, no prosecutors, but outside the courtroom the citizens of St. Petersburg waited, and in front of them were the guards, armed and armed, as they had done on that day, with their bayonets pointed at the citizens who had come to wait for news.

In the courtroom, Witt and Ulyanov looked at each other, and Witt nodded to Ulyanov, who returned the favor with a faint smile. The head of the High Court, Malalov, looked at Ulyanov and said: "Vladimir. Ilyich. Ulyanov, born in Simbirsk on April 22, 1870, instigated a strike of workers in St. Petersburg on November 21, 1895 with the intention of overthrowing the regime, and was sentenced to death by hanging in accordance with the provisions of the Law on the Prevention of Revolution. His Majesty the Great Tsar, in view of his young age and the demagoguery of others, sentenced him to exile to the village of Shoushan in the Minusinsk region of Siberia for reform, and the period of exile was five years. As Malalov's last word was spoken, the gavel fell heavily. After Mamalov finished reading, he said to Witte: "Your Excellency, the trial has ended, please report back to Your Majesty." ”

Witt glanced at Ulyanov and then said to Malalov: "Your Excellency, please allow me to talk to this man, after all, we were once best friends. ”

Malalov nodded in agreement, then walked out of the courtroom with the papers. Seeing Malalov leaving, Witt first let the two prison guards leave temporarily, and then came to Ulyanov's side and shook his hands, at this time Witte could no longer control his tears, and Ulyanov saw this and whispered: "Vasya, don't cry, don't cry." Who knows if there are any Tsar's spies here, don't worry, I'll be fine, but the revolutionary cause of Petersburg depends on you, I will write to you often, and help me take care of Nadya. ”

Witt wiped away his tears with his hands and whispered to Ulyanov: "Ilyich, the Tsar asked me to take over Sverdlov in charge of the secret police station, you can rest assured, I will definitely let the revolutionary cause continue, and I will let you gain some freedom in Siberia through operation, and Nadya asked me to tell you that she is waiting for you to return." ”

After hearing this, Ulyanov nodded silently, and then said loudly: "You tsar's lackey, brute, I Ilyich has no friends like you, you sell your friends for glory, and you will definitely die a good death in the future!" ”

Witt listened to Ulyanov's words, and his heart was even more reluctant, but he knew that he couldn't be a little daughter at the moment, so he also replied loudly: "You stubborn evil man, you are simply unreasonable! Prison guards, prison guards, take this guy away! The prison guards who retreated to the hall immediately rushed to take Ulyanov out of the courtroom when he heard the noise, but Ulyanov still cursed: "Vasya, you will definitely not feel good, you lackey, brute, traitor to seek glory, I will not let you go when I die!" Ulyanov was still puzzled by the scolding, so he spat at Werther.

Witt was stunned and slapped Ulyanov's spit in the face, Witt wiped it with his hand, and then shouted sharply at the prison guard: "You waste, hit me!" The moment just now came so fast that the prison guards didn't react, and when they heard Werther's words, they suddenly felt a chill, so they swung their fists at Ilyich's body, and then took Ilyich out of the courtroom.

Witt watched Ulyanov being taken out of the courtroom by the prison guards, although the corners of his mouth and nostrils were bleeding from the just beaten on his face, but the smile on the corner of his mouth was noticed by Witt without reservation, and Witt stood in the courtroom and muttered: "Ilyich, take care!" ”
