There is nothing surprising about this newspaper, just an ordinary declaration, but the more ordinary it is, the more it makes the old Yuan happy, it is full of articles praising Jun Xian, and strongly supports Yuan Shikai to ascend the throne as emperor.

However, Yuan Shikai didn't know that the newspaper he saw was not the same as the one outside, but the handwriting of the eldest prince Yuan Keding, and he deliberately printed a few fake newspapers, in order to make Lao Yuan misjudge the situation.

Now that there is the support of the people, Lao Yuan has gradually put his mind at ease, he has been in power for many years, he is highly respected, even if he is in a yellow robe, and then the National Congress was held as scheduled, and all the delegates unanimously agreed to a constitutional monarchy on the issue of the national system, and it is already a sure thing for Lao Yuan to become the emperor.

At this time, Li Zongru came to Yanjing City, he was originally from the intelligence system, but he went to the United States with Qiao Cheng, and found that this person was very knowledgeable and very safe, so he was transferred from the intelligence system, and this time he came to Yanjing City on behalf of Qiao Yu.

As soon as he arrived in Yanjing, Li Zongru was taken aback by the situation in Yanjing, and from time to time on the street, a group of celebrities and women walked by, all wearing the latest cheongsam, and a fragrance from afar pierced their nostrils.

"Little brother, Yanjing City is really at the feet of the Son of Heaven, and the atmosphere is really open, which is very different from the delicacy of other places!"

The rickshaw driver ran forward quickly, and said: "Sir, this is also the only thing in Yanjing in the past two months, this is called a wishing group, it turns out that our coachman also has a petition group, everyone goes to the street to give five dimes a day, and then the officials dislike us not lively, so they all use these girls, you see that there is no leader is the head girl of the Eight Hutongs called Yuan Chun, it is said that people and the eldest prince Yuan Keding hooked up together, this may be the princess in the future!" ”

Li Zongru also shook his head when he saw this situation, can this kind of miscellaneous thing represent public opinion, isn't this nonsense, "Little brother, what do you think of this imperial system?" ”

"What do I think? As long as you can eat a full stomach, whoever wants to be the emperor will be! Soon the coachman sent Li Zongru to the destination, Li Zongru first came to the vice president's residence, came to find Li Yuanhong, since the Xinhai Revolution came, Li Yuanhong and Qiao Yu formed an alliance, although Li Bodhisattva was later forced to run to Yanjing, but the contact with Qiao Yu was still not severed, now Li Zongru came, Lao Li seemed very enthusiastic.

"Qiao has always been a good ambassador, and recently I have always heard that Sichuan is prosperous under Shunqing's rule, and I have long known that Shunqing is the most outstanding figure among young people, and it is really extraordinary!"

"The vice president is polite, the marshal asked me to come to Yanjing to come to you, now Yanjing City is so lively, there are some things that still need to be consulted by the vice president!"

Li Yuanhong took Li Zongru's hand and came to the reception room, "Just say anything about it, but I'm just a waste person now, I'm afraid I won't be able to help much!" ”

"The vice president is too modest, I have a mission when I come this time, which is to ask the vice president what he thinks of President Yuan Da as emperor?"

"Mr. Li, President Yuan Da is a foil to the iron heart, but in my opinion, I'm afraid this emperor is not so easy to be, I heard that Duan Qirui has quarreled with Lao Yuan several times, and resolutely opposes Yuan Shikai's accession to the throne, you also know what Duan Qirui's status is in Beiyang, he disagrees, President Yuan Da almost has half of the hope, and Feng Guozhang also seems to disagree, that is, Duan Zhigui and his ilk support Yuan Shikai to become the emperor, what can these incompetent people do!"

"Thank you Vice President for informing me, although Qiao Shuai is in Sichuan, he also remembers Yanjing, this change in the national system is not a trivial matter, it is widely implicated, and I have to consider it carefully!"

"Mr. Li is right, not only what does Shunqing think?"

"Qiao Shuai told me before he came that everything is subject to the will of the people, if Junxian can really make this troubled country better, it doesn't hurt to implement it, but once there is any big change, please ask the vice president to be prepared, you have to stand up for the common people in the world!"

Li Zongru's few words immediately made Li Yuanhong's heart churn for a while, what does it mean to let yourself stand up, could it be that Qiao Yu is ready to arm against Yuan Shikai, is it to let himself replace Yuan Shikai? Li Yuanhong's mind suddenly came alive, it seems that the opportunity to make a comeback is just around the corner, but Lao Yuan's power is still very large, it is best not to rashly agree.

"Mr. Li, I know Shunqing's kindness, don't worry!"

Li Zongru said goodbye to Li Yuanhong, and went to visit Yang Du, and repeatedly expressed his support to Yang Du for the Preparatory Security Association, Li Zongru also donated 100,000 yuan to the Preparatory Security Association as activity funds, so that Yang Du's heart also let go of most of it, it seems that Sichuan still supports President Yuan Da, since the most powerful prince nodded, Junxian's trouble is much less.

"After you go back, tell Qiao Shuai that as long as he is willing to support President Yuan, his Sichuanbian patrol envoy will soon become a southwest patrol envoy, Yongzhen Southwest!"

Qiao Yu didn't care about getting promoted and getting rich now, he was anxiously waiting outside the delivery room, everyone in the Qiao family was present, including Qiao Guangyuan and Mrs. Bai, as well as Lu Nai's family, everyone was anxiously waiting, and there were bursts of heart-rending screams faintly from the delivery room.

Qiao Yu was also anxious to rub his hands, turning back and forth in front of the door, although Qiao Yu already had a daughter, but all his thoughts were still on Lu Wanqing, only the one in her belly was the heir of the Qiao family.

"Shunqing, don't dangle back and forth, where is the usual kung fu to nourish qi?" Qiao Lao scolded Qiao Yu.

"Dad, be careful!" Qiao Zhen shouted on the side, startling everyone else, at this time, I saw a cloud of white smoke rising from Qiao Guangyuan's chest, and a trace of fire, it turned out that the cigarette pouch in the old man's hand lit the gray beard, although the old man scolded Qiao Yu, but the person who really looked forward to his grandson the most was still his old man.

Qiao Zhen hurriedly extinguished the fire, but most of the old man's beard was burned at once, looking at the embarrassed father, Qiao Yu only felt a strong taste of family affection in his heart, and the screams in the delivery room became louder and louder, almost hoarse.

Shuaifu Tianding is a big deal, the medical level in this era is limited, and childbirth is almost a matter of life and death, Qiao Yu invited famous Chinese and Western doctors for insurance, and there are a few Wen Po who are the most experienced, Lu Nai is even more so, he does not hesitate to burn incense and worship the temple at any cost, praying for peace.

After another two hours, the people outside the house were a little impatient, the time was indeed a little long, Qiao Yu's head was full of sweat the size of beans, and he didn't care about wiping it, just when it was getting late, there was a heart-rending cry in the delivery room, followed by a loud cry!

"It's raw!"

This thought rose in everyone's hearts, and the doctor in the delivery room hurriedly walked out, "Mr. Qiao, congratulations, you are a little boy, mother and child are safe!" ”

Hearing this, Qiao Yu finally breathed a sigh of relief, who knew that his legs were so weak that he sat on the ground, Qiao Cheng and Qiao Zhen on the side had never seen the appearance of the third child, and hurriedly helped him up.

"Third child, don't be happy and stupid, look at the children and younger siblings!"

After a while, Mrs. Wen took the baby and sent it to Qiao Yu, and the red envelopes of the Qiao family were also handed out, and those who participated in the delivery of everything were 10,000 yuan per person, all of which was from Lu Nai, and the daughter added Ding to the Qiao family, and the position of the lady was completely stabilized, and the wealth of the Lu family was also settled, why was Lu Nai unhappy.

The little thing has just been born, and the crumpled skin looks like a little piglet, but this little thing is the best gift in the world in Qiao Yu's eyes, and it is simply the greatest gift from God, the little guy seems to be tired at this time, and he doesn't look at Qiao Yu at all, but tilts his little head.

At this time, Qiao Guangyuan and the others also gathered over, and they were all so happy that they couldn't close their mouths, and Bai took his grandson in his hand tremblingly, "Shunqing, this child is the same as when you were a child, why don't you let your daughter-in-law take a look!" She's a great contributor to our family. ”

Qiao Yu came to the delivery room, at this time Lu Wanqing was lying on the bed, her hair was motionless, a few hours of tossing had exhausted all her energy, when she saw Qiao Yu walking in with the child, she hurriedly struggled and looked up, Qiao Yu hurriedly sent the child to her.

"Wanqing, thank you for your hard work!"

Lu Wanqing barely showed a smile on her face, glanced at the child, and fell asleep, the Qiao family added a son, which marks that Qiao Shuai has a successor, although it is no longer popular to follow the father to the son, but having a son is undoubtedly a sign of a person's maturity, which means very much to Qiao Yu.

Qiao's family held a feast, entertained guests and friends from all walks of life, and was happy for three days, and at this time came the news that Yuan Shikai had decided to accept the throne, and at the same time changed the presidential palace to Xinhua Palace, and decided to officially ascend the throne on New Year's Day in 1916.

A few days later, Yuan Shikai abolished the name of the Republic of China, changed it to the Chinese Empire, and set the name of the year as Hongxian, which means to promote the meaning of the Constitution, but also to deceive people, if you really prepare Hongxian, why bother to call the emperor, why play this kind of trick at this time!

Qiao Yu also received a generous reward from Lao Yuan, and was treated as a first-class duke together with Duan Zhigui, Feng Guozhang, Long Jiguang and others, but Qiao Yu didn't look at this thing at all, Yuan Shikai killed himself, Sichuan has been preparing for this day for several years, and from now on he will throw off his arms and fight for the world!
