"It's really enjoyable..."Drinking the juice that had just been taken out of the refrigerator, Yan Shao said very comfortably.

Although the weather was still very cold at this time, drinking juice that was cooler than the weather into his stomach was a supreme enjoyment for Yan Shao.

Seeing him like this, both Elaline and Caterina sighed.

I don't know what's going on with Lu Dao, Yan Shao likes cold drinks very much in his daily life. I usually like to drink a glass of water, but of course, if you do it in the summer, it's okay, but even in the winter, which is a bit abnormal. Especially when eating, I drink cold drinks while eating hot dishes and hot meals.

For this reason, Eleno and Caterina also persuaded him, and once even went to a doctor to tell him that this was bad for his body, but it was useless, Yan Shao still did his own thing in this regard, and he did not mean to suspend his power at all, and after a long time, Eleno and the others gave up.

"How's things going in the National Socialist Party?" asked Elaline curiously, after cutting her hair.

Recently, she has been busy with the affairs of the group, and she is not very clear about this aspect.

"It's okay, right..."After thinking about it, Yan Shao said. According to my meaning, the party has elected about 50 people to disperse to the provinces in the south that have been recovered to set up branches, and I have already approved the funds, each branch has about 200,000 yuan of funds, which will be used for operation and propaganda, so now we just wait for the blossoming and fruition..."

Although Yan Shao knows very well that only the barrel of a gun is the most realistic in these years, but for those who have just come from the table? After all, the members of the Innovation Association can't say that—————— in fact, let alone really think about it. Yan Shao never even said the six words 'military administration, discipline administration, and constitutional government' to them.

After all, when the north and the south are in harmony, it is very unfavorable in public opinion to really want to say these six words and their meanings. It is also easy to frighten ordinary members who have just joined the National Socialist Party.

So at least on the surface, Yan Shao only said that he intended to seize power by legal means through party politics.

Although the Qing family has not abdicated yet, when he contacted Yuan Shikai at the beginning, neither Li Yuanhong nor the people on the other side of the League promised Yuan Shikai that he could stay in the position of head of state for the rest of his life, but only said that he could become 'China's Washington'.

In other words, as long as the term of office is over. If he can't gain an advantage in party politics, he will still obediently step back —————— theoretically.

So on the matter of seizing power through party politics. Village? Not to mention the people of the Reform Association, the ordinary members of the Kuomintang Socialist Party were very much in favor of it. Although many party members are more inclined to Yuan Shikai. However, there will only be more people who are inclined to Yan Shao in the party, after all, Yan Shao's achievements during this period are obvious to all, not to mention that the interests of many people are tied to Yan Shao.

As for the authoritarian tendencies represented by statism, these are even more fine. It is different from the League or other revolutionary organizations. The constitutionalists were originally more inclined to let the state power support the progress of the people.

At present, the branch shelves of the southern provinces have been formed, just like Yan Shao said, just waiting for blossoming and bearing fruit. However, if the party wants to develop to the scale of the League, it may take a long time, but many people in the party are not worried about this, after all, Yan Shao has already said that it will be said until the end of Yuan Shikai's term, and Yuan Shikai's first term will take at least five years.

5 years. Not long nor short, in the eyes of many, enough for those divisions to blossom and bear fruit. It's grown into a huge organization on par with the Alliance. After all, these people are very aware of Yan Shao's financial resources, and with such huge financial support, the National Socialist Party has almost no possibility of failure, not only do they think so, but even Li Guoyun and others are the same...

It's just that they don't know at all that Yan Shao never thought of relying on party politics to replace Yuan Shikai...

"Because in the end, if you want to succeed and return it to the barrel of a gun..."

Glancing at each other, Elano and Caterina didn't say much.

Unlike Yan Shao, who do not know the future history, they are actually more in favor of gaining power through party politics. After all, with Yan Shao's financial resources, it would be almost easy for the National Socialist Party to gain a majority in parliament in a few years, and there was absolutely no need to risk military means...

But now that Yan Shao has decided, the only thing they can do is to support him...

————————————————————

"By the way, how is Li Guoyun doing? Did you make any small moves? Putting the already empty cup on the table, Yan Shaoxiao looked at Caterina with interest.

"That guy has been running to the telegraph office a lot these days, but maybe he also knows that he is being watched, so he didn't avoid people, the telegram was sent to Yuan Shikai, and we have already got the content on it, mainly to inform Yuan Shikai of the establishment of the party, and you plan to replace him through party politics..." Doesn't it really need to get rid of him? ”

After all, there are always some people in the political party who are inclined to Yuan Shikai, which is never a thing, not to mention that the leader of these people is still the vice chairman of the political party. In Katerina's view, even if Li Guoyun is not eliminated, he should be expelled from the Kuomintang.

Hearing Caterina say this, Yan Shao lowered his head and groaned for a while, and only spoke after half a sound. "Don't want it for the time being, after all, Li Guoyun is also somewhat famous in Anhui, if his hands and feet are not clean, it will be very unfavorable in public opinion, and he needs to support the façade in a short time, and then talk about it after a while, if he doesn't know each other at that time...... Let's get him out of the city first. As he spoke, Yan Shao grabbed Katarina's hand and kissed it.

Seeing that the situation was about to develop into a scuffle between three people entering the house, there was a sudden noise outside. Although he hadn't seen anyone yet, Yan Shao could still hear who was walking in from the outside from the childish voice.

Although Yan Shao is famously cheeky, after all, he has not yet reached the point of staging an intimate scene in front of a child who is still in elementary school. So there was no way, Yan Shao could only put down Katarina's hand stupidly. Sit back in your seat.

Seeing Yan Shao's helpless appearance, although there was some regret in his heart, there was a smile on both Caterina and Elanor's faces. Then sat down on the two seats next to Yan Shao, waiting for the people outside to enter the courtyard.

The noise outside was getting closer and closer, and it didn't take long to see Lu Ying and Kaoru Otsuki walking in from outside with Fumiko, and at this time Fumiko was smiling and saying something to the two. I don't know what Lu Dao said, anyway, the two people who were amused couldn't stop laughing, especially Lu Ying, who was trembling with laughter.

After walking into the courtyard, I saw Yan Shao and Elano sitting in the courtyard. Fumiko immediately threw down Lu Ying and Kaoru Otsuki, and happily rushed into Yan Shao's arms. "Uncle Yan!"

In fact, Yan Shao wanted Fumiko to call his brother even more, after all, he still hoped that he could be younger. It's a pity that there is no way, who called him about the same age as Kaoru Otsuki, so he can only reluctantly accept the fact that he is a generation higher than Fumiko.

But then again, I heard Fumiko sweetly call her uncle there. In fact, Yan Shao himself was very happy.

And after hugging Yan Shao. Fumiko called out sweetly to Elano and Caterina. "Aunt Elano, Aunt Katarina..."

"Good..."Seeing Fumiko, the two also showed a smile.

Although both of them have a little disgust with Japan because of many things in the past, they have a heartfelt love for Fumiko, and Katerina even pinched her cheek. "Coming back from school? How is the school? ”

Originally, Fumiko went to school in an elementary school in Wuhu, but later because of Yan Shao, they were going to move to Anqing. Fumiko also came to Anqing. Naturally, it is impossible to continue to go up and down the original school. Although the distance between Anqing and Wuhu is not very far, and it only takes a few hours by boat, it is not possible to let children take a boat for several hours every day to go to school. Therefore, it has become inevitable to go to school in Anqing.

In fact, according to Kaoru Otsuki's meaning, she stayed in Wuhu and accompanied Fumiko.

But the two of them have nothing to rely on in China except for Lu Ying and Yan Shao, although even if they stay in Wuhu, they don't need to worry about their livelihood, but if they really leave the two of them in Wuhu, Lu Ying can't rest assured, so she brought them to Anqing strongly.

Fortunately, Anqing is the capital city of Anhui after all, and it is impossible for the provincial capital to not even have a primary school. So after Yan Shao and the others settled down, they arranged for Fumiko to enter an elementary school in the city. Now Fumiko has just returned from school.

"Very good, the teacher is very good to me...", Fumiko said innocently, raising her head.

It must be given, after all, it was the Governor's Office who personally inquired, plus the Minister of Education personally instructed it. Although the people who run education in these years are quite high, it is impossible to be high to this point.

So after some instructions, Fumiko soon received special attention.

Naturally, after communicating with colleagues in Wuhu, many rumors began to circulate in the primary school in Anqing.

When it came to school, Fumiko began to chatter about life at school, Kaoru Otsuki stood aside and looked at her so gently, with a slight smile on her face, while Elano and Lu Ying surrounded Fumiko and kept teasing her, even Yan Shao next to her couldn't take care of it.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Yan Shao smiled as he refilled his cup with juice.

Although Fumiko seemed to be chattering there and seemed to be very noisy, Yan Shao enjoyed everything in front of him. For him, there is nothing more important in this world than family and family, and these people in front of him are his family...

————————————————————

In front of the gate of a mansion in Beijing, there are people who come to visit, if you use an idiom to describe it, it is that the door is full of birds—————— it seems to be the opposite? Then let's go for it.

At this time, the Qing Empire could no longer be described as twilight, but should be described as death, because he was already dead, and all he was waiting for now was to cover the coffin lid and bury it in the earth.

That being said, there is a reason why it is very lively in front of the gate of such a mansion, because the owner who lives here is likely to become the ruler of China in the future.

Isn't there such a sentence as the ancient saying that follows the dragon's work? It's definitely impossible to go from the dragon now, but it's okay to come to the door to ask for favors. As a result, people visit the house almost every day to make a good impression on the owner of the mansion.

By the way, the owner of this mansion is surnamed Yuan. It's called Yuan Shikai...

In the lobby, looking at the few people who had just said goodbye and left, the somewhat chubby Yuan Shikai smiled bitterly.

"These guys, I didn't come to the door when I was unlucky, but now I see that I am in power, but they are all more diligent than anyone else..."

In November 1908, Emperor Guangxu and Empress Dowager Cixi died of illness one after another, and the young Puyi succeeded to the throne. Changed the yuan to "Xuantong", and his father Zaifeng was the regent. Zaifeng was opposed to many of Yuan Shikai's New Deal measures, and even more so because of the Wuxu coup (he suspected Yuan Shikai of betraying the reformers. As a result, Guangxu was imprisoned by Cixi to death), hated Yuan Shikai very much, and the Manchus were very repulsive to the Han people, and they were very afraid of the rights in the hands of the Han ministers. Therefore, after becoming the regent, Yuan Shikai was immediately relieved of his official position. Yuan returned to Henan, initially living in seclusion in Huixian and then to Anyang.

Officialdom was originally a realistic place, when Yuan Shikai gained power, some people rushed to the door to scold him. When he lost power, he avoided them one by one, as if there was something terrible about him.

Originally, if it continued to develop like this, maybe Yuan Shikai really would never have a chance to come out again. After all, Yuan Shikai is a family. Generations have not lived past the age of 60, and even Yuan Shikai himself has been the same in history. If only the Xinhai Revolution had been a few years later. Maybe Yuan Shikai will really die before the age of 60.

It's a pity that some things are inevitable, even if there is no Wuchang uprising, there will be other uprisings, after all, the Qing government has lost the support of the people. And after the Wuchang Uprising, in order to cope with the coming revolution, the Qing government had to use Yuan Shikai.

As a result, after his comeback, Yuan Shikai did not suppress the revolutionary party as the Qing government thought, but instead fought with them. At this time, people also saw that the future ruler of China was definitely Yuan Shikai, so the people who had avoided him began to visit again, which made Yuan Shikai himself have a headache.

Looking at Yuan Shikai's pretending appearance, Yang Shiqi smiled slightly.

"Didn't the palace guard already know what those guys looked like, but they were just some powerful villains..."After speaking, Yang Shiqi took out a telegram. The telegram that had just arrived from Anhui was sent by Li Guoyun, and it seemed to be very important. ”

"Li Guoyun?" Yuan Shikai, who originally wanted to pretend, was stunned when he heard this name, and hurriedly took the telegram from Yang Shiqi's hand.

Yuan Shikai is naturally no stranger to Li Guoyun, after all, he is Li Hongzhang's grandson, and he has some connection with Yuan Shikai.

After opening the telegram and reading it carefully, Yuan Shikai frowned. "The National Socialist Party?"

"That's right..."Yang Shiqi already knew the content of the telegram, so he nodded. The political party that the governor of Anhui had just established seemed to be planning to start in party politics, and this time Li Guoyun and Deputy Governor Li sent a telegram in the hope that Gong Bao would be careful about this matter..."

That being said, but on the surface, in fact, Yang Shiqi himself didn't pay much attention to this matter, not only him, but even Yuan Shikai.

"This Yan Shao..." Putting the telegram on the table, Yuan Shikai shook his head slightly. Although he is already considered to be the top among his peers, he is still a little young and naïve after all..."

As a politician of the older generation, Yuan Shikai is naturally well aware of the importance of the barrel of a gun.

If it weren't for the barrel of a gun, how could he have forced the Qing Emperor to abdicate? If it weren't for the gun, how could he let the South willingly give up the position of president for him?

Party politics, Yuan Shikai is not unaware of the importance of this thing, but he knows the importance of the barrel of the gun better.

"But..."First nodded in agreement with Yuan Shikai's words, and then Yang Shiqi said. This Deputy Governor Li is right, although party politics is not very important, but if there is no such thing, our situation will be a little passive, so, isn't it? ”

"You're right..."Hearing Yang Shiqi's words, Yuan Shikai nodded. Although the southern side gave up the seat to me, but it is not necessarily very willing, if it is backward in this area, it will be a little passive after all, this Yan Shao is a wake-up call for me..."

Saying that, Yuan Shikai laughed again. "Having said that, what I was most worried about was that this Yan Shao threw all the money into armaments, but I didn't expect that there would be any political party in the end, which made me breathe a sigh of relief..."

On the side, Yang Shiqi smiled in agreement.

When Li Guoyun brought the news of Yan Shao's plan to expand the army, even Yuan Shikai himself had a headache. Tens of millions, if it is millions, Yuan Shikai may still be able to get it, but if tens of millions are smashed, even if it is smashed and sold iron, Yuan Shikai will not be able to come up with such a large amount of money.

Therefore, although Yuan Shikai has always been willing to let Yan Shaolai be the Minister of Finance or Minister of Industry of the new government, he is very jealous of him in his heart. This kind of jealousy even exceeds that of the Alliance, after all, a group of poor people are useless even if there are many people, and the Alliance Association is a group of Huazi in Yuan Shikai's eyes—————— he knows very well what it is like in Nanjing now.

"But after all, I'm a little young, and I actually pinned my hopes on this kind of thing..."Glancing at the telegram that was put aside by himself, Yuan Shikai shook his head and smiled, but while laughing, a trace of envy flashed in his eyes...

Because what Yan Shao has is exactly what he lacks... (To be continued......)
