(Tangled new book, only one update today.) Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info)

After entering 1911, the country presented a calm situation, the British fleet was gone, the French soldiers were withdrawn, Japan did not take the opportunity to make trouble, from south to north, a group of peace, and on the other hand, the weak national strength was gradually filled, after the new policy at the end of the Qing Dynasty in 1904, the Qing court introduced a series of policies to encourage industry and commerce, the development of the industry almost blowout, the degree branch statistics last year's fiscal revenue, exceeded 200 million taels of silver, of which the commercial tax accounted for 80 million, which everyone did not expect.

Of course, on the long border in the north, there is still a little discord factor, the cause is that the Qing court in Kulun minister Sanduo, and the Mongolian upper-level monks and officials friction, Sanduo ordered a strong suppression, killed more than 300 lamas at the mouth of the temple, Jebzunbadan denounced Sanduo grass Kan people's lives, the Mongolian Han tribes have responded, the separatist action became more and more rampant, stationed in Mongolia Beiyang No. 2 and San Town was urgently transferred to Kulen and Kyakhta, and in this cooperation, the Russians also sent troops to press the border, and the border relations were tense for a while.

However, there is still a long way to go, and fundamentally speaking, both sides are reluctant to fight, especially at this time, China signed the "Sino-British Secret Treaty", the subtext is equivalent to saying that it has joined the Entente, and Russia has long been one of the three major Entente countries, and the two sides are still turning the corner.

No matter how noisy the frontier was, all the noise was silenced in the sound of firecrackers in the New Year, and it was the 268th year of the Qing Dynasty.

Chinese New Year is the first major festival in China, the capital is naturally lively, the people who buy New Year's goods are crowded with traffic, the street lights are installed on the streets, the roads are paved, and the traffic is much more convenient.

The land of China, immersed in the joy of the festival.

.....

Good house

In the past few days, Rong Ji Rong Yi Rong Yan was happy to be alive, they received the New Year's money one by one, bought a lot of good things from the street, and had a lot of fun, and the New Year was approaching, the masters were on vacation, and the school was not needed, so naturally they chattered every day, and they didn't know what was happening outside.

This year, there was a lot of snubbing in front of the door, the number of people visiting the door dropped sharply, and the newspapers outside were spreading that the good governor had suffered a gunshot wound in Jiangning and went to Japan for treatment, and I am afraid that he will not be able to get better.

Although Lan Niang was illiterate, she also knew these gossip, and her heart was full of coldness.

Although Ye developed the news that he was "in good condition" in Japan and would be able to come back after the New Year, Lan Niang was still worried all day long and washed her face with tears.

I also heard that Han Cuier was about to give birth, and she was alone in Shanghai, she couldn't let go of it in her heart, if she didn't have to manage a large family in the capital, she immediately had the idea of going south.

Lan Niang can't figure it out, shouldn't she be reunited for the New Year? How so?

She remembered the old days, when although the days were a little harder, but everyone gathered around everything and ate a hot meal.

The more Lan Niang thought about it, the more uncomfortable it became, and she tried her best to take care of the housework, but in the end, she fell ill again, Han Chun'er hurriedly called Luo Lurs, and her condition was not optimistic.

On this day, someone came, it was Ha Hanzhang, Jiang Yanxing and others, with gifts and dressed up.

Lan Niang propped herself up and invited them to the inner hall one by one.

"Brother and sister, are you better?" Ha Hanzhang saw that Lan Niang's face was not very good, and he didn't feel good in his heart, the handsome man was not there, and she was the only one in charge of this family, and he couldn't bear it.

"It's much better, it's much better, I'm tired of Hanzhang."

Jiang Yanxing brought a ginseng, which he entrusted someone to bring from the northeast, almost in the shape of a human.

"This is more than ten years of Northeast ginseng, during the Chinese New Year, you will make up for it in the house."

"Many.."

Lan Niang was just about to say thanks, but before she finished speaking, she began to cough violently.

Seeing this, everyone sighed softly.

"Brother and sister, I have one thing to talk to you about?" In the end, it was Ha Hanzhang who brought it up.

"What's the matter?" Lan Niang asked.

"About the Great Commander"

Lan Niang's face suddenly surged with blood, and she trembled with excitement.

The two went to the inner room, and Ha Hanzhang told the truth and the situation.

"Is the master okay?" Lan Niang was a little surprised.

"Well, brother and sister, remember, don't tell outsiders about this." Ha Hanzhang nodded his head, and finally specially instructed.

Hearing the news, Lan Niang was speechless with excitement, her ten fingers were one, her face was pious, and there were words in her mouth.

"God forbid, God forbid..."

......

Coming out of Liangfu, Ha Hanzhang and Jiang Yanxing stopped.

"The good marshal told us to stand still, but right now..." Jiang Yanxing is worried, recently, rumors have spread outside, mostly against the Praetorian Guards.

Ha Hanzhang's face was solemn, "I should know that they are going to move the Praetorian Guard, Liangshuai knows better than us, you forgot, since he went to school, Liangbi has always been unpredictable, let's not worry, maybe he has already thought of a countermeasure." ”

After finishing speaking, Ha Hanzhang looked at the gloomy sky, and a heavy snow fell immediately.

The progress of things is really the same as Ha Hanzhang's conjecture, just after the New Year, a series of actions were in full swing, and it was clear that it was the idea of fighting the Praetorian Guard.

The Beiyang Army stationed in Mongolia in two towns was suddenly ordered to be transferred to Rehe, but due to the implementation of the military advisory system, this army is no longer the Beiyang Army of the past.

On 19 February, His Excellency ordered the permanent abolition of the post of Minister of Nanyang, and Yuan Shikai, Vice Minister of Foreign Affairs, was in charge of Nanyang affairs.

On March 5, His Excellency ordered the expansion of the Rehe Metropolitan Guard, recruiting 3,000 men, and approving 1.2 million taels of military expenditure.

On 12 March, the Cabinet again ordered the reorganization of the Beijing Police Department, expanding the number of police officers from the current 2,000 to 3,600, and setting up guard points in important places such as the Cabinet, the ****** Mansion, and the Yuan Residence.

On 26 March, the War Department ordered the first town of the Praetorian Guard to be stationed in Baoding, and the chief military officer, Ha Hanzhang, refused to fulfill the order on the grounds that Gongwei was the royal family.

On 28 March, news spread in the capital that Liangbi Liangbi, the governor of Liangjiang, had died of illness in Japan, and on the same day, the two towns of the Praetorian Guard held a joint military exercise outside the city.

....

A spring snow has just fallen in Beijing, and the temperature has not officially warmed up, and in the secret room of the Qing-Prince-Wang Mansion, more than a dozen people are sitting precariously.

"Lord Wang, Liangbi died in Japan."

"Comfort Pavilion, is the news accurate?"

"It's true, the news inside the Military Advisory Office."

"Hahaha," Yi laughed, "this thief is finally dead, I can't imagine that this is the end." ”

"Lord Wang, we have to get things done before the meeting of the Senior Affairs Council, and when that time comes, the prince will be in power, and Liang Qichao and the others will have nothing to do anymore."

Yi Qian nodded and looked at the people in front of him, Feng Guozhang, Duan Qirui, and Cao Kun were all senior generals in the army.

"As long as the Praetorian Guards take it, and they support it in all directions, this matter will be done." Yuan Shikai said.

"Okay, it's up to you."

"Lord Wang, why haven't you seen Zhen Baylor recently?"

"He.." Yi-Xuan was a little embarrassed, and quickly recovered, "Don't worry about him, you go on." ”

"I've arranged everything, and in three days, I'll seize military power."

Yuan Shikai made the final decision.
