Chapter 172: Song Jiaoren's Assassination

"Huh? Yes! ”

At this point, Wang Hengyue can only say "ah".

Ma Yunxin whispered behind him: "Sister Xing hasn't passed the door yet, you get a Ye Bao'er here, and then get a foreigner in, I'm afraid it's not good to spread the word." ”

"Ahh Yes? ”

Wang Hengyue couldn't cry or laugh, how could he have this thought?

The conscience of heaven and earth, how did you think of it all together?

turned to Margaret: "This, what are you doing in Rong County?" How long are you going to stay here? Where to stay? ”

asked so many questions in one breath, as if he wanted to defend himself in front of his wife.

Margaret said a few words to Rong Hanyan in a low voice, and Rong Hanyan translated: "My lord, Ruowei's dream is to be a journalist, so she wants to stay in Rong County for a while, and then bring everything she sees back to France." It's hard to say how long you'll stay. As for where to stay."

Speaking of this, Rong Hanyan laughed first: "Margaret said, I see that your place is very big and has many rooms, so I want to borrow it from you first." ”

"Nonsense, nonsense!" Wang Hengyue couldn't cry or laugh, he couldn't wash himself up when he jumped into the Yellow River this time: "Your uncle is Du Rang, the acting vice consul of France in Chengdu, where is it still used by me." ”

"Wait." Ma Yunxin, who was behind her, suddenly pulled Wang Hengyue: "Her uncle is the acting vice consul of Chengdu of France?" ”

"yes." Wang Hengyue nodded.

Ma Yunxin suddenly smiled: "Miss Rong, please tell this young lady who is a horse or something, it is very happy to have friends from afar, let alone foreign friends?" My family is the most hospitable, but it doesn't hurt to live here, you can stay as long as you want. You can choose from every room here. ”

Margaret listened to the translation, cheered, and hurriedly pulled Rong Hanyan to pick a house together.

"What do you mean, ma'am?" Wang Hengyue asked so in his words, in fact, what his daughter-in-law wants to do is like a mirror in his heart.

Ma Yunxin glanced at him: "I'm afraid you have already guessed in your heart, she is the niece of the acting vice consul of France, Chengdu, and adults do great things, so they must have a good relationship with these people." Now that Dujan's niece is with us, we will have a lot of convenience in the future."

"Madame said very much, very much!" Wang Hengyue looked like he was "suddenly enlightened": "It's just that Mrs. can't be inexplicably jealous in the future." ”

Ma Yunxin smiled bitterly: "What you Wang Shuzhi wants to do, who in the world can stop it?" ”

Wang Hengyue smiled with a mouse's eyebrows

In February 1913, the Senate and the House of Representatives of Yanjing were re-elected. The Kuomintang won 392 seats, while the three major parties of Republican, Unity, and Mingzhu won only 223 seats.

The acting leader of the Kuomintang at this time was Song Jiaoren!

On February 1 of the second year of the Republic of China, Song Jiaoren got up from Taoyuan and went down the east of the river through Changsha and Hankou; He inspected party affairs in Shanghai, Hangzhou, Nanjing and other places. At that time, the Kuomintang won a great election victory, the morale of party members was high, and the future of Soong Jiaoren's political career was like a rising day. In this way, the constitution is first formulated, and then the president is elected in accordance with the law.

In the general election of the National Assembly of the Republic of China, the Kuomintang won a complete victory, and Soong Jiaoren wanted to follow the European practice of "cabinet system" and form a cabinet as the party leader.

At about 10 o'clock in the evening of 20 March, Song Jiaoren set off from Shanghai. Those who saw him off were Huang Xing, Yu Youren and so on.

At this time, there was already a reception room for the councilors at the Shanghai Railway Station, and because the driving time was not enough, Song Jiaoren and the comrades who saw him off temporarily went to the rest room of the parliamentarians to take a break. At 10:40, the train entered the station, and the whistle sounded several times to beckon passengers to board the train. Song Jiaoren, Huang Xing, Yu Youren and others came out of the parliamentarians' lounge, walked to the platform in parallel, and walked towards the ticket cutting gate, there were many passengers, squeezing towards the ticket cutting gate in a chaotic manner!

A ghostly figure came out of the dark shadow, only to see that the person was wearing a top hat, pressed very low and couldn't see his eyebrows, hurriedly crossed the crowd one by one, and chased after Song Jiaoren and his party, when the distance was about ten meters, I saw the man raise his hand and raise his hand, "bang" and "bang" two shots

Hearing the gunshots, the passengers dodged one after another, you hit me, I touched you, and it was a mess. In an instant, the Assassin disappeared into the shadows. Song Jiaoren Huang Xingyu You and his party also wanted to dodge, but Song Jiaoren had been shot and was almost about to fall, so he hurriedly held on to the iron railing and said sadly: "Not good!" I was shot. ”

As he was talking, he heard two more gunshots, and two more bullets "snapped" and "snapped", the bullets hit the iron railing, and two sparks were knocked out, fortunately no one was hurt, Huang Xing and Yu Youren supported Song Jiaoren left and right, retreated to the platform, and urgently called the station patrol police to quickly take the murderer. Who knew that looking around, there was no patrol policeman, it was important to save people, Huang Xing, Yu Youren and others hurriedly set up Song Jiaoren and hurriedly walked out of the station. Fortunately, there was a car outside, but the owner of the car was nowhere to be seen, regardless of 3721, everyone immediately helped Song Jiaoren to get into the car, which was driven by Huang Xing and sent to the Shanghai-Nanjing Railway Hospital.

In the Shanghai-Nanjing Railway Hospital, Song Jiaoren died of exhaustion at the age of 32. When he died, his eyes were not blinded, and his fists were clenched. Seeing this, Chen Qimei paused and cried: "How can this be willing! How willing is this! Later, he was persuaded by everyone.

As soon as the obituary of Song Jiaoren's assassination came out, veterans of the League in Shanghai and Nanjing, members of the Kuomintang, patriots, men and women, and friends gathered at the entrance of the hospital to pay for the funeral. Plain cars and white horses, funeral executions, soul protectors and guides, the number of people is about 10,000 people, lined up in a long line, but orderly. In the sound of mourning music, we marched towards the Hunan Hall

Outside the door of the Hunan Hall, a high platform has already been erected, and Mr. Ma Junwu, the veteran of the Alliance, gave a speech. Thousands of words are impassioned and refreshing. The audience of 10,000 people sighed

After the public sacrifice, he was buried in the backyard of the Hunan Hall.

Who instructed Song Jiaoren to kill?

Yuan Shikai? Or not necessarily.

In fact, Song Jiaoren has always been regarded as a pro-Yuan faction by his comrades in the alliance in the early years, so Yuan Shikai has always been interested in him, and even regarded him as a nephew! ”

If Yuan Shikai wanted to kill Song Jiaoren, he would not choose this sensitive time. Song Jiaoren's trip to the north was to discuss state affairs with Yuan Shikai. Yuan Shikai can first "listen to his words and watch his deeds".

The Kuomintang had already won the election at that time, and Song Jiaoren was dead, and there would still be representatives of the Kuomintang to be the prime minister, and it would be even more difficult to settle with a fiery Huang Xinglai. Couldn't Yuan Shikai think of this?

Yuan Shikai once said: "I have suffered too much on behalf of others, and I have never argued." But although I don't kill Dunchu, Dunchu is also killed because of me, how can I argue about this! A sensible person must have sensed that if I wanted to kill him, I didn't have to invite him to kill him. I could have waited for him to come, and then framed him for his sin and killed him, why should I invite him several times and kill him while he was about to do it? This is obviously a way to give a person, and a fool will not do such a foolish thing. ”

Yuan Shikai's words may also be acting there, or they may be true

"Huai Zhao, what's wrong, so in a hurry?"

Seeing Wang Qinglu walking towards him in a hurry, Yu Lei stopped him and asked.

"The assassination of Song Jiaoren, the acting leader of the Kuomintang, is about to happen!" Wang Qinglu waved the telegram in his hand.

"Oh" Yu Lei said unconcernedly: "Heng Shuai already knows." ”

"What? Heng Shuai already knows? Wang Qinglu was stunned for a moment.

"Yes, I talked about it in there just now, and now Heng Shuai is resting, don't bother." After Yu Lei finished speaking, he suddenly smiled slightly: "Brother Huaizhao, I heard that in Ya'an, you have made great achievements and helped Heng Shuai take down Yana without a single shot, congratulations, Heng Shuai will definitely trust his brother in the future." ”

Wang Qinglu couldn't figure out Yu Lei's true thoughts for a while, so he made a few perfunctory polite tones, and then heard Yu Lei say: "When is my brother free, you must come to me to sit down, let's have two drinks!" ”

"Good, good, definitely, definitely!"

"Brother, since we all do things for Heng Shuai, we are not outsiders." Yu Lei walked a few steps with Wang Qinglu and said: "But the elder brother is new, and he is not very familiar with some of the situations here, and he has been staying by Heng Shuai's side for a long time, and he knows a little about Heng Shuai's temperament and surname, if the elder brother does not understand in the future, the brother must know everything, and he will say everything!" ”

Wang Qinglu said "En", and suddenly heard Yu Lei sigh: "Actually, we can't compare to those who are soldiers, there are guns and people in our hands, we only rely on our own minds, but we can't rely on our minds alone, don't you say that's the truth?" ”

Wang Qinglu gradually understood what Yu Lei meant.

"Huai Zhao, you are a staff officer, you are by Heng Shuai's side, and you have been in contact with Heng Shuai for a long time, if there is any news in the future, please remember to notify you in the next voice."

Sure enough, when Yu Lei's words came out, Wang Qinglu finally confirmed the judgment in his heart:

Yu Lei is going to form an alliance with himself!

It's an alliance that takes advantage of each other. Yu Lei is in charge of the Bureau of Statistics, and he has many eyes and ears, if he has "his own people" by Wang Hengyue's side, then everything can be known at the first time, which can allow him to deal with it calmly.

Since coming to Hengshuai's side for a while, I have also heard a lot of things about Yu Lei, and they all say that this person is a strange person, and he does things unscrupulously and ruthlessly, but Wang Hengyue trusts him very much.

Forming an alliance, with such an ally as Yu Lei, is beneficial to himself. But this is the most taboo for those who are leaders, once they want to be known by Heng Shuai, what kind of result will it be?

Seeing Wang Qinglu's appearance, Yu Lei smiled "haha": "I'm just talking casually, Huai Zhao must not take it to heart, from now on we are colleagues, and we should take care of each other." ”

Wang Qinglu smiled faintly and said: "When I first came, I didn't understand anything, and with Director Yu to take care of it, it couldn't be better." We are all Heng Shuai's subordinates, and it was supposed to help each other! ”
