Chapter 189: Two People

"The Chinese nation's political axe and Hunan Provincial Governor's Axe Notice: Today, I am ordered by the Governor's Axe to tell our people that wherever my righteous teachers are everywhere, don't use suspicion, the Liberation Army rose up to save the people, not greedy for merit and selfishness, Pull is equal to fire and water, make up for the sores of Er, etc., and you have suffered this before, which is worse than indulging in the sea of suffering. It is only because of the enslavement of the alien race, so it is like a relic. It must be known that today's Manchurian political axe is not my Han family. Even if there is a righteous indignation, revenge is nothing, our compatriots are not willing to be slaves, they are the first to raise the banner of righteousness, the first to recover the nation, and the people work hard to drive away, all the Han people and thieves, not allowed to be crippled for a long time, thieves used to eat my flesh, and I sleep on the skin of thieves today. Some people are excited about the righteousness, it is advisable to return with the whip as soon as possible, and jointly try to recover the cause, the Han family will be established in the period, and the political power of the Chinese nation will be established. The Liberation Army has strict military discipline and fair adversity, and I hope that our compatriots will all rise up and seek recovery! The Yellow Emperor era 4,600 years in April said"

This is the first recovery notice, the people who are eager for the recovery of the Han nationality are few after the notice is posted, they are crowded in front of the notice, there are countless viewers, all take a sneak peek as a pleasure, the signature of the notice is Liu Yi, the governor of Hunan Province, although he has not heard of his name, but this will not be too scrupulous.

"The Liberation Society has succeeded!" In the more than ten days after the shock of the north and south of the river, with the success of the six provinces of Jiangsu, Anhui, Zhejiang, Jiangxi, Fujian, and Guangdong, and the establishment of the seven provincial governors, half of the country was recovered, and for a time almost the whole world believed that the Qing political axe was about to fall into the situation of collapse.

When the Hunan Provincial Uprising broke out, Sun Yat-sen, who had just become a naturalized American citizen, was on a lecture tour from San Francisco with Huang Sande, the head of the American Zhi Gong Tang.

While traveling to St. Louis in the central United States, Sun Yat-sen was working on an article entitled "The Real Solution of the China Question" when he, Huang Sande and others saw a local newspaper on the train about the "occupation of Hunan Province by the Revolutionary Party."

After seeing this news, Sun Yat-sen was naturally very excited, and almost immediately decided to return to China, for many years, he fought for, and what he was looking forward to was the day when the uprising was won.

Under the persuasion of Huang Sande and others and American friends, he waited for the situation to become clear before making a decision, and after completing the article "The True Solution of the China Question" written in English, he took the train back to San Francisco, and it was in San Francisco that Sun Yat-sen heard a thunderous news.

Overnight, the six provinces were recovered!

It was night, Sun Yat-sen leaned on the head of the bed, the bedside lamp emitted a soft orange light, shining on his excited and somewhat reddened cheeks, he read the news in the newspaper again, in fact, he had already been able to recite the original text, he was reading, while thinking, endless thoughts were churning in his mind, and the past was presented in front of him one by one.

It has been ten years since 1895, the Yiwei Guangzhou Uprising and the Gengzi Huizhou Uprising, both of which ended in failure, and the failure of the uprising made him face not only the withering of his comrades-in-arms, but also the disintegration of the organization. The failure of the armed uprising was accompanied by a serious split within the revolutionary ranks, which Sun Yat-sen did not want to see, and some of the Xingzhong Society also attacked him.

But the most lethal thing is that almost after the Gengzi Huizhou Uprising, after the strength of the Xingzhonghui was greatly weakened, the rise of the Guangfuhui caused a large number of talents who could have been revolutionary comrades to flow into the Guangfuhui, Liu Shipei, Zhang Ji, Zhang Taiyan, Tao Chengzhang, Zhang Gong, Xu Xilin and others, who were once revolutionary comrades, are now all members of the Guangfuhui.

In the face of internal and external difficulties, he was still undeterred in running for the revolution, and he firmly believed that the cause he was fighting for was correct.

The recovery of the seven provinces is gratifying, but ...... Sun Yat-sen remembered the two letters between Mr. Crutch and the Liberation Association in Honolulu at the beginning of the year, that is, the two letters between the marshal of the Liberation Army, and the words of Chen Dashuai in the second letter are still unforgettable.

“…… In terms of the melodious and pleasant slogans, those in power can never compare with those in opposition, because people do not carry burdens, and they do not have backache when they stand and talk. We have never lacked impassioned pickers, but we have rarely been down-to-earth and diligent enough to really think about ourselves in the first half of the night and others in the second half of the night. The [***] people of all dynasties often regard themselves as the embodiment of justice and truth, but what is justice and truth, how can one or two people make a decision on behalf of 450 million people. …… If Mr. wants to talk about revolution, I can help him with 2,000 dollars to help him travel to South American countries! ”

The man who followed the letter really paid a bill of exchange of two thousand US dollars, just as he was worried about at the time, whether it was the crutch or now Chen Moran is nothing more than "the name is restored, but the actual [***] generation", but he never mentioned dictatorship, but once compared the pros and cons of the political system of various countries in the article, whenever someone asked about the future of China, he always used the sentence "The future should be decided by the people!" In reply, when others first retorted, "How can the ignorant people decide the national system," he would retort, "Yier and others regard the people as ignorant, and I don't know whether the president's choice will be left to the "ignorant people" or a few people in the post-revolutionary republic! The people are ignorant and cannot decide the state and the president of the republic."

"In terms of the means of coercing public opinion, it can be said to be the first in this world."

sighed at the man's scheming, but Sun Yat-sen had to admit a reality, when his revolution was still successful, and even hopeless, he had already recovered seven provinces, held hundreds of thousands of troops, and was waiting to recover the Han people.

Now, the seven provinces south of the Yangtze River have been recovered, the Qing court fleet is stuck in Wuchang, and the great powers have been neutral and wait-and-see, and they have been wandering overseas for ten years, in order to realize their long-cherished wishes, expel the Manchus, and establish the Republic of China. And now, the provinces south of the Yangtze River have been recovered, and this first step has been realized, but the second step is ...... Thinking of these, Sun Yat-sen couldn't sleep for a long time in excitement, so the surname Suo got dressed and got out of bed, pacing in the room, sometimes staring out the window in a daze, thinking quietly.

Occasionally, you can hear the sound of firecrackers outside the window, which is the firecrackers in Chinatown to celebrate the liberation of Jiangnan, and even in these two days, the "blue, yellow and red" tricolor flags have been hung everywhere on the streets of Chinatown.

"The blue system is the blue sky, the yellow system is the descendants of Yan and Huang, and the red system is the land of China that has been stained with blood, which means that our descendants of Yan and Huang stand under the blue sky and step on the blood-stained land, multiply the three colors into black, and add red, which means that our descendants of Yan and Huang have the spirit of iron and blood, and the three colors are divided into white, and the blue is added to mean that our descendants of Yan and Huang should be innocent!"

The explanation of the tricolor flag in the newspaper is also reasonable, but Sun Yat-sen is not only excited, but also worried, he knows that with the recovery of the seven provinces in the south of the Yangtze River, as the overseas Chinese hang up the "blue, yellow and red" tricolor flag that means Yan Huang, standing in front of the window, looking at the tricolor flag that means Yan Huang, the patriotic spirit of overseas Chinese has shifted from the Xingzhong Association to the "Temporary Political Axe of the Chinese Nation", just like the newspaper called for "one person, one yuan, to restore the nation!" Huang Sande's intentional or unintentional estrangement made him realize the departure of his comrades-in-arms again.

Standing in front of the window, looking at the tricolor flag that means Yan Huang, Sun Yat-sen can even imagine that maybe in a few months, there will be more comrades-in-arms around him who will turn away from Xingzhonghui.

What's next? Do you want to return to China immediately to participate in this upheaval? Sun Yat-sen, who was standing in front of the window, hesitated for a long time. If he returned from the Pacific Ocean at this time, he would have been able to reach Shanghai in more than twenty days and personally participate in the battle to destroy the Qing Dynasty, in order to comfort his life's wishes, and ...... He looked at the list of governors of the seven provinces in the newspaper, except for the "Temporary Advisory Bureau" of the governor's axe, the rest were unknowns, if ...... Thinking in his heart, Sun Yat-sen took a deep breath of cigarette, it is his wish to restore the nation and establish a republic, but if he returns to China, he vows to sing the opposite tune with the handsome, and the handsome will hand over the future national body to the people, how can he not know what kind of national body will be elected with the foolishness of the 400 million people, and today's handsome man is afraid that he will be added to the dragon robe!

Spit out the smoke, the smoke dispersed by the window, listening to the song of "Back to the Han and Tang Dynasties" in the air, the cigarette was between his fingers, but Sun Yat-sen frowned and thought, thinking about that sentence.

"Today's responsibility, only glory!"

Chen Moran calmly answered Liang Qichao's question.

"Dashuai, you're avoiding the question!"

Looking directly at the handsome man sitting in the first seat, Liang Qichao said directly, he can't even remember how he stepped on this "thief ship" now, like this Chen Moran in front of him A year ago, he thought he was a chaotic minister and thief, but now he sees him as the hope of recovering the nation, and the changes in the world are only unpredictable.

"No, Ben Shuai did not avoid the problem, what is said today is that only the restoration is the head, the nation cannot be recovered, everything is empty talk!"

Sitting on the Taishi chair, after calmly saying these words, Chen Moran's eyelids were slightly constricted, and he never left Liang Qichao's face for a moment.

"Marshal, what if the republic is elected by the people?"

"That's the Republic!"

"What if the people are elected and the monarchy?"

"That's the monarchy!"

Chen Moran took a deep breath and stared at Liang Qichao, which obviously showed some majesty on his body, but Liang Qichao also felt that there was an aggressive momentum pressing on him.

"After the imperial system, who will be the emperor! The emperor is the fortune of heaven, how can there be a reason for the people to be elected! ”

Chen Moran was silent, only at this time, he twisted his two eyebrows into a thick rope, and Liang Qichao immediately felt that he had been hit the head, and he hurriedly shrank his mouth and stopped for a moment before he could continue.

"From Qichao's point of view, that is, the imperial system, if the Manchu Qing Dynasty did the act of Zen and gave up the throne to the marshal, the marshal will inherit the fortune of the heavens, and make the Qing emperor have a good death, wouldn't it be wonderful!"

"Mr. Liang!" After Liang Qichao finished speaking, Chen Moran screamed lukewarmly.

"The fate of the Manchu emperor, dignitaries and ministers is not the master of the marshal, the marshal is disgusted with others to force the public opinion, on behalf of the public opinion, how can he promise to treat the Manchus well for the sake of false inheritance, in the view of the marshal, no matter what the future of the marshal is, the marshal will insist on the following two points as soon as he is in power!"

The tone was calm, and Chen Mo expressed his attitude generously.

"The future of the nation is decided by the people, and the power of the Manchus is decided by the ad hoc courts! Ben Shuai will not interfere! ”

Shocked, Liang Qichao looked at Chen Moran in front of him in surprise, in his opinion, Chen Moran must mention the "people", but there is a reason to coerce the people, but he also has the heart of constitutionalism, and what he seeks is nothing more than "the imperial power of the unity of all generations", but he is unwilling to reconcile with the Manchu Qing and successfully obtain the throne.

Although he is to some extent towards recovery, the reason why he said such things is that he hopes that Hanman can reconcile, and the person who can make the two completely reconcile is the handsome man in front of him.

"In the opinion of Ben Shuai."

Chen Moran, who was sitting upright, was now accustomed to the self-proclaimed "handsome", and gently tapped the middle finger and index finger of his right hand on the table twice as he spoke.

"How can the throne inherit the reason of the sky, the plane of my industry rises in the air, soars in the clouds, where is the heavenly palace, if it is another dynasty, this handsome is fortunate to ......"

Although the words were not spoken, Chen Moran's heart was a little fluctuating, who didn't have the heart of "he can take his place", what he said was beautiful, but the desire in his heart could deceive others, but the heartbeat and blood surge when he moved that thought couldn't deceive himself.

But thinking of his compatriots, like a basin of cold water poured on Chen Moran in the cold winter, he suddenly wilted, and he couldn't speak for a long time.

The sudden silence made Liang Qichao understand what Chen Moran, who "made a wish to be the crutch of China's rejuvenation" and was known as "pressing a thousand jun with his body", was thinking, as he expected, who didn't want to rule the world one day.

When he was silent, Chen Moran used water instead of ink and pen to refer to the pen, and wrote a series of writing words on the table.

"Delusion, delusion, delusion!"

When these words were written, Chen Moran shook his head, a wry smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and a sadness welled up in his heart.

Although the heart of "he can take his place" has already been born, Chen Moran seems to be a little hesitant at this time, and no one knows better than him that the future China is facing the time, this is an era that pays attention to the law of the jungle, and an era full of crises for China. In addition to being broad-minded and politically charismatic, the talents who need to govern the world in times of crisis should also have tenacious, resolute, and flexible special surnames, but what about themselves?

After writing the word, the fingers stained with tea wrote a few more words on the table, but after writing, they wiped off those words with their hands.

"If a man only speaks, he can take his place!"

Suddenly, Chen Moran forced Liang Qichao in front of him.

"But there are a few people who know the responsibility on their shoulders after replacing it!"

Liability! Responsibility is easy to write, but it is as heavy as a thousand pounds, Chen Moran knew that from the time he chose this road, he had actually staked his fate on this "Ding", and if there was a slight mistake, it might be a catastrophe.

Moaning, Chen Moran half-closed his eyes, changed to a calm tone, and continued in an orderly manner.

Ben Shuai once heard a story about a beautiful and golden woman standing anxiously by the river, facing the turbulent river, and asked, "If you want to cross the river tonight, who will carry me?" Countless voices sounded in the darkness: "I'll carry you!" "The night was like ink, obscuring the true faces of these people. This beautiful and golden woman, named "Zhonghua", what kind of dark night journey will she begin......"

Sitting quietly, Chen Moran's state of mind at this time has basically calmed down, he opened his eyes and looked out of the window of the black hole, in the previous few hours, the deliberate welcome of those gentry and virtuous people produced that kind of complacency and subsequent expansion of ambition, this will have faded a lot, no matter how they choose, no matter what the future is, now and in the future, what they will face is a crisis like walking on thin ice, on this road, what they will face is not something they can predict.

Maybe in the future, you will be too harsh, you can't touch the stone, touch the wrong stone, or even accidentally drown, you may become the object of demonization and ridicule, and those who stand on the side of the wadi and watch the excitement, talk about the wind and cool words, and wait for the opportunity so that "he can take his place", see that people are not struggling, standing and talking without backache, only shouting trumpets and not working, of course, will always be right! So it is now, and so it will be with all those who will come after him.

Knowing Liang Qichao's frowning and thinking appearance in the future, Chen Moran stood up violently.

"Now, this dark night itinerary is my master, although Ben Shuai doesn't know what the future holds, but he will feel the stones, no matter what he faces, Ben Shuai will go all the way!"

With that, Chen Moran strode towards the outside of the hall, leaving only one sentence.

"This marshal still has military affairs, Mr. Liang, if you want, you can go to the Ministry of Civil Affairs and appoint official documents on the table!"

After Chen Moran dropped a sentence and went out, Liang Qichao, who was still pondering, walked to the desk with a solemn expression, only to see that although Chen Moran had just written a lot of words in tea instead of ink, he could vaguely see a word, it was actually a "person!" ”

Seeing this word, Liang Qichao frowned again, thinking about this person, there were a lot of words pouring out of his heart, but after thinking about it carefully, it didn't correspond very much, and a wave of doubts welled up in his heart.

The story of Da Shuai is thought-provoking, now is not the eve of China's unknown, no one knows what the future will be, but the word Da Shuai, repeatedly thinking about the meaning of this word in his heart, Liang Qichao saw an official document on the table, which was impressively written to appoint him to the post of deputy minister of civil affairs, and the official document was marked by the ruling seal of the temporary political axe.

"It's a pity ......"

Thinking about the fate of the emperor that Chen Moran just mentioned, Liang Qichao's eyebrows darkened, the emperor has the grace of knowing him, but ...... In the face of this mandate, he seemed hesitant.
