Sitting alone in the conference room, Yan Shao looked up at the ceiling...

"Where's the strange ceiling..."

Well, this is just Yan Shao's self-talk, and ......... He has been moving into the presidential palace for several years, and many meetings have been held here, and this ceiling has been seen countless times, so it is really a little difficult to talk about strangeness or anything.

He just said that, and it just means that he seems a little bored...

But just when he felt a little bored, there was a knock on the door, and then after getting Yan Shao's permission, a servant walked in with a glass of juice. There was no need for Yan Shao to give him anything, so he had already put the cup in Yan Shao's hand very skillfully, and then quietly withdrew from the conference room...

It's just that when the subordinate withdrew from the room, and by the way, when he closed the door, he looked at Yan Shao, who was drinking juice, but this subordinate always felt a little strange in his heart...

Seriously, in fact, she is also new, probably only here for more than two months, but she has undergone a lot of training before coming back, so no matter what she does, she can be very proficient and there will be no difference, just...

Looking at Yan Shao, a big man of more than 1.8 meters, sitting there drinking juice in small sips, she still felt a sense of disobedience...

This is not surprising, although because of Yan Shao's relationship, many people in this era began to drink juice, but after all, this trend has just emerged, in the eyes of a considerable number of people, juice is only drunk by women and children, although this person also knew Yan Shao's habit of drinking juice before he came again. But after witnessing it with my own eyes, I still feel a little strange in my heart...

"Forget it, I don't understand anyway. This kind of thing will probably take a while to get used to..."Thinking so, the subordinate gently closed the door, and then walked outside with the plate, leaving Yan Shao to sit alone in the room, taking his eyes off the ceiling and moving to the top of the map.

For Song Jiaoren, to be honest, Yan Shao loves and hates in his heart.

Of course. Love here is definitely not very affectionate, just a very ordinary meaning.

For Yan Shao, Song Jiaoren is a very important subordinate. Because he knows very well how much corruption is dangerous to a country, and he knows how important a qualified woodpecker really is.

"The cannon outside Changzhou Island roared, and the Northern Expedition to the East Expedition against the Japanese Army. In addition to the violent prosperity of China to stop the civil war, 800 generals cried in the tomb. ”

Why did the Kuomintang fail in later generations? There are so many reasons for this. There are even too many to count. The existing War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression had just ended, and a civil war was set off. The financial inability to support the eventual collapse of the economy is also a problem of morale, in addition to the crowding out of miscellaneous or untrustworthy troops, but the root of it is always the word corruption.

In the face of the poor livelihood of the people in the country, some people in the Kuomintang made a big profit, and for the time being, we will not mention whether the later Communist Party was like them, at least at that time, the people still hated them. What's more, even the later Communist Party was not as powerful as they came.

The current Kuomintang is indeed very strong, and the current Kuomintang government has even become the first government in modern history to substantially unify China. As for the other parties. Just like the Democratic League and the others in history, there is only the share of standing on the sidelines, even the Kuomintang (KMT), which was once the largest political party.

In a way, at home, the National Socialist Party has become a bit of a solipsist.

The question is...

The scale of the political party is large, and the people in the party will inevitably have some...

At least at the beginning of the establishment of the Nationalist Government, in order to be able to control the whole country to the fullest, Yan Shao accepted many local powerful factions to join the party.

If these people bring the party style to ruin, it is difficult to say whether the Kuomintang will become the second Kuomintang―――――― although at this time, because of Yan Shao's relationship, the once largest political party can no longer turn over.

It is precisely because of this that Yan Shao values Song Jiaoren.

But for him, although Song Jiaoren's performance in the integrity department has always been very good, it is sometimes too much of a hindrance. In particular, as a politician who admired the French cabinet system, Song Jiaoren often opposed the existing political system, and opposed it when Yan Shao was 'arbitrary', and when some orders were issued by the parliament and the cabinet, although his opposition was usually of little use...

This time is the same, just when Yan Shao was planning to carry out the plan to go north and annex the whole of Siberia, the intelligence department of the Ministry of Integrity found some clues, and then Song Jiaoren's subordinates began to investigate this matter...

Yan Shao almost dared to conclude that if Song Jiaoren knew the truth of the matter, he would definitely turn things upside down in the end, so when there was no other way, Yan Shao had no choice but to have an open and honest talk with him and try his best to persuade him to support him...

Even if he chooses to oppose it in the end, Yan Shao can also take some necessary measures on the grounds of national security...

"I just hope that guy can get acquainted with some..."Drinking the juice in the cup, Yan Shao thought so in his heart, but Yan Shao had no confidence in whether Song Jiaoren would agree to this plan, after all, Yan Shao had seen many idealists over the years, and these people were usually soft and hard...

Of course, such people are usually more respectable, but many times they are also very hateful.

Because for them, the so-called position is far more important than the big picture, even if it is extremely serious to maintain their position...

In the past few years, Yan Shao has been killed by this kind of popularity, especially those who are full of bookish anger, one by one they think they have the talent of the world, and they are always there to point fingers, but they can't do anything, and they are still very hard-mouthed...

――――――――――――――――――――――――――

Just when Yan Shao was staying in the conference room, he drove in a car for a while, and Song Jiaoren also came to Yan Shao's presidential palace.

Every time I see Yan Shao's presidential palace. Song Jiaoren couldn't help frowning, because he had never felt the need to build such a building, especially after considering how much money it cost...

But...

Since it was Yan Shao's money that was spent. Song Jiaoren didn't have much to say, after all, he knew very well that Yan Shao's money came from business, not from corruption and other means, although it seemed a bit outrageous, but in fact it came very legitimately, not to mention tax evasion in his industry. Even the slightly larger violations did not ―――――― the duty of the Ministry of Integrity was to investigate the violations of the law by officials, and although Yan Shao was the president, he was also an official after all. In addition, there is another Yushi Group placed there, which is naturally within the scope of Song Jiaoren's investigation, but Yan Shao feels that he has not done anything illegal, so he doesn't care much about it.

It's not surprising, though. Because of Yan Shao's assets. There is no need to do such a thing at all, and the benefits obtained by this kind of behavior cannot even compensate for the loss of his prestige...

And...

I've been here so many times, and I've seen him so many times, to be honest, gradually Song Jiaoren is also a little used to it.

Because Yan Shao had notified the following early, Song Jiaoren's car could be said to be unimpeded all the way, and he soon came to the steps of the presidential palace. Push open the door. After getting out of the car, several staff members of the presidential palace soon greeted him.

"Minister Song..."

Look at these two beautiful staff members. Song Jiaoren frowned slightly.

If you want to find a place with the most balanced number of men and women in the national government, then the presidential palace is definitely one of them, and even in addition to some women-dominated departments, I am afraid that the presidential palace is the place with the most women, and the ―――――― is not only young, but also the best quality, almost all of them are young and beautiful...

Thinking of the feat that Yan Shao married three wives at one time, which almost caused a sensation at home and abroad, many people in China thought that Yan Shao's presidential palace was actually the harem he made for himself.

However, at this time, only six years have passed since the fall of the Qing Dynasty, although compulsory education has begun to be promoted, but there are still more illiterate people among the people (after all, compulsory education is facing children), the old concept is still a little unturned, plus Yan Shao's reputation among the people is extremely high, and he is very loved, so usually when talking about this matter, the people are always talking about it in a relish tone, even if there are a few ......... Usually also envy, jealousy, hatred...

The only people who are really disgusted by this are the young students, especially the female students.

Of course, Song Jiaoren was also very disgusted by this, although he didn't know the inside story at all (although the Ministry of Integrity had an intelligence department, even if there was Song Jiaoren's order, giving them a hundred dares, they would not dare to spy on Yan Shao's private life), but Yan Shao's behavior had a very bad impact on the national government after all.

However, his exhortations are usually ineffective, and he has nothing to do with Yan Shao, and Song Jiaoren can only be out of sight.

――――――――――――――――――――

For this, Song Jiaoren and the others have wronged Yan Shao.

Although men like to play fresh, Elano and the others are very strict with Yan Shao.

According to Katarina, the bed is already crowded now, wouldn't it be even more crowded with one more person? Eleno, Otsuki Kaoru and the others thought deeply about this, so they usually stared at Yan Shao very closely, even Lu Ying.

As for Yan Shao, no matter how much he likes to play fresh, it can't be too casual.

In fact, after having Elano and the others, Yan Shao's vision is still very high, not to mention that he prefers the kind of plump women, and has no interest in the kind of shriveled and shriveled bodies. So even if he met a few women who could be compared with Elano and the others in appearance, and looked at their shriveled bodies, Yan Shao was not interested―――――― maybe it was because of nutrition, at least the women Yan Shao saw usually looked relatively poor, whether it was in front or in the back, they were usually very flat, even if they met a few plump, their faces were not up to Yan Shao's standards.

In addition, Yan Shao's body is not iron-beaten after all, even if it is, the kidneys are not.

So in the past few years, Yan Shao has been a little clean and self-conscious, and as for the staff in the presidential palace, they are just used for eye-catching.

After all, the dignified presidential palace can't always be all crooked and inferior. Naturally, Yan Shao also heard the rumors from the outside world. But he didn't care much, anyway, the clear ones were self-purifying.

Besides, if you get a room full of men. People may think you're doing it.

What's more, when they were in the manor, Yan Shao and the others lived more passionately, and they got a house of maids for fear of being bumped into and suffering losses. Although life is not like in Anhui now, the dress of Elano and others at home (living area) is still relatively casual, although this kind of dress is very common in later generations, but in this era it is undoubtedly bold, in case it is seen by others, it will not suffer a big loss. So it's useful to have more women...

――――――――――――――――――――――

Although he frowned in his heart, Song Jiaoren still followed the two staff members into the presidential palace.

Walk straight along the spacious and bright marble gallery, after walking for a distance of more than 100 meters. The two men led Song Jiaoren to the door of one of the corners.

"Minister Song, the president is waiting for you inside, you can just go in..."

Saying that, the two bowed slightly towards Song Jiaoren, and then slowly left.

Wait until after the two of them leave. The corridor suddenly fell silent. Coupled with the inky black and very heavy wooden door in front of him, the atmosphere around Song Jiaoren actually seemed a little...

However, Song Jiaoren himself was a straight person, and he didn't care about this, but waited until the two people left and pushed the wooden door open.

As soon as he pushed the wooden door open, Song Jiaoren saw Yan Shao, who was sitting inside drinking fruit.

"Minister Song, you're here..."Seeing Song Jiaoren arrive, Yan Shao asked with a smile.

"President, you summoned. How can I not come..."Song Jiaoren also replied with a smile, and walked into the conference room after speaking. Then close the door with you. "Speaking of which, why are there so few people today?"

Song Jiaoren remembered that Yan Shao usually followed a large number of people wherever he went, even in the presidential palace, at least there must be a few bodyguards standing there outside the conference room, and it was precisely because of this that he felt strange.

Regarding Song Jiaoren's question, Yan Shao smiled. "Talk about some confidential things, it's always good to have fewer people, and besides, is it possible that Minister Song will shoot me again?"

Hearing Yan Shao say this, Song Jiaoren couldn't help laughing.

He was not polite to Yan Shao, and after smiling, he directly pulled out a chair around the long table, and then sat in front of Yan Shao and asked. "What a secret..."

"The ones you already know—" He couldn't help coughing as he spoke, and then Yan Shao gestured for him to look at the map hanging on the wall.

"During this time, the intelligence department of the Ministry of Integrity has been collecting some information, I believe you should already know something..."

"That's right." Nodding, the smile on Song Jiaoren's face gradually faded, and his expression was slightly gloomy. "That's why I don't understand, what do you want to do, President? Could it be that the expeditionary force is fighting in Europe and attacking the allies as well..."

Speaking of this, Song Jiaoren's tone obviously became a little anxious.

If it's just Russia, in fact, Song Jiaoren himself doesn't have much resistance to recovering the Outer Khingan Mountains, but the problem is that although the Romanov dynasty has fallen and Tsarist Russia has become history, the current Russian Provisional Government has not officially withdrawn from the war after all, in other words, they are still allies of China and a member of the Entente...

Do it to your allies? At least in Song's opinion, this is definitely not a wise thing to do...

"Russia? Ally? Yan Shao couldn't help laughing, and then said to Song Jiaoren, who was stunned. I'm sure you've guessed that's right, at the moment the Wehrmacht is gathering troops and supplies in the northeast and other directions, and it is indeed in order to plot against the Khingan Mountains, after all, it is our territory, but it was ceded to the Russians a few decades ago because of the corruption and incompetence of the Qing government......... Together with Sakhalin, the current chaos in Russia is the best time for us to take back the Trans-Khingan Mountains, how can we let go of this opportunity?! ”

"But now Russia is an ally after all, and if we do something against Russia, even if Russia can no longer play a role on the Eastern Front, the British and French powers will not be able to sit idly by..."

"Don't worry, my minister..."Hearing Song Jiaoren's words, Yan Shao couldn't help but be happy. You, although you are not bad at dealing with those corrupt officials, you are still a little worse diplomatically, and fortunately, I don't plan to use you as a diplomat......... You said that the British and French powers would definitely not sit idly by, and I sue you, they are happy that we will do it in the outer Xing'an Mountains, and at most they will stand up and say a few words, why? Because a strong China is something they do not want to see, because a strong China can threaten their interests in the Far East and even in Asia as a whole, neither Britain, nor France, nor the United States will want to see us become stronger, and they want us to be forever weakened, forever as a dumping ground for their products..."

"The problem is that now China has become stronger, although it is not as good as them, but it is no longer at the mercy of others, on the other hand, they have suffered heavy losses because of the European war, and it is very likely that they will no longer be able to protect the interests of the Far East, I dare to tell you, what they are most worried about now is that after the end of the war, will we go south to do something against their colonies, at this time we choose to go north, they will definitely breathe a sigh of relief, and lose such a large piece of land in the Outer Khing'an Mountains, the Russians will not give up, Although Russia has suffered a great loss of vitality after the civil strife, the emaciated camel is still bigger than the horse, and if we fight with the Russians, we will not be able to care about their colonies in the Far East..."

"Since that's the case, then why are you still..."After listening to Yan Shao's analysis, Song Jiaoren also felt that there was some truth, but it was precisely because of this that he didn't understand it a little.

"Because..."Looking at Song Jiaoren, Yan Shao smiled, revealing the snow-white teeth inside. Whoever sues you, Russia will still be our ally by then..." (To be continued......)
