284. The night sends Qingxi to the Three Gorges
Yes, Sun Yuanqi wants to go out of Sichuan, because there are a lot of things outside that he needs to solve personally. Welcome to Reading //
For example, it is necessary to hold talks with Lilith, US Minister to China, and other people at home and abroad, and formulate a feasible long-term and short-term plan for industrial and agricultural development in Sichuan, Shaanxi, Gansu, and other regions.
Another example is to consult with Sun Yat-sen, Yuan Shikai and other giants to discuss the status of the three provinces under his rule, and to fulfill the duties of the chief of education. ββFrom the end of March last year to the present in less than a year, Sun Yuanqi has become one of the few powerful factions in China from the squire of the Qingshui Yamen, and can even have a relationship with Yuan Shikai, a great hero who has been in the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China for 20 years. The unpredictability of the world's encounters can be seen from this!
Of course, the reason why Sun Yuanqi is in a hurry to go out of Sichuan this time is not here, because he has a more important task: to move the headquarters of the Chinese Society for Science and Technology to China!
In 1907, Sun Yuanqi took the opportunity of visiting Sweden to receive the award and established the European branch of the Chinese Society for Science and Technology in London, England, and then the American branch and the Japanese branch were also established one after another. However, due to the limited situation at the end of the Qing Dynasty, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, there has been no movement in the country. However, China's scientific research level is relatively backward on the whole, the layout of research institutes is very unreasonable, and the scientific research workers lack systematic coordination and cooperation, which urgently need a national science and technology society to organize and lead.
Although Sun Yuanqi is the chief of education in the south and the minister of education in the north, in terms of his jurisdiction, he is equivalent to today's minister of education and minister of science and technology. If we take into account the territory in Sun Yuanqi's hands, it can be considered that he is the vice premier in charge of science, education, culture, health, and sports. At present, he has the ability to ensure the safety of the headquarters of the Chinese Society for Science and Technology after it moves back to China, and also has the ability to adjust the scientific research layout of the whole country and set up a series of scientific research institutions according to the needs of the country.
After roughly ending the affairs at hand and roughly drawing up a work plan for the next two or three months, Sun Yuanqi found Yang Du, Zhang Shizhao, Shen Xiangyun, Jiang Zhiqing and others to confide in his intention to go out of Sichuan. originally thought that Yang Du would be the first to raise objections, but he didn't expect him to nod his head: "Now that the wind is surging, the heroes are competing for the deer, Baixi really can't live in Bashu all the time, he should go to Nanjing, Shanghai, Beijing and other places to take a walk and see the changes everywhere up close!" β
After Sun Yat-sen was elected as the provisional president of the Republic of China, in addition to taking 2 AD as the first year of the Republic of China, he also renamed Jiangning Mansion as Nanjing Mansion and designated it as the capital of the Republic of China. Nanjing was once called Jinling, Moling, Jiankang, Jiangning, Yingtian, etc. in history, but it was called "Nanjing" in the Ming Dynasty. Obviously, Sun Yat-sen wanted to reflect his intention of "opposing the Qing Dynasty and restoring the Ming Dynasty" by changing his name, hoping that just like Zhu Yuanzhang, the Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, would make the capital of Nanjing, he could successfully go on the Northern Expedition in the future, completely "drive out the Tartars and restore China", and achieve the great victory of the rejuvenation of the Han nationality!
Yang Du shook his fan and continued: "And yesterday Chang Qing just sent a telegram, saying that the work of preparing for the constitutional convention to reorganize the New China Party has been largely completed, and if you want to hold an inaugural meeting in Shanghai, you, the party leader, naturally cannot be absent." In addition, it is said that Zhang Taiyan, the leader of the Liberation Society, is very dissatisfied with the situation of the Xingzhong Association controlling the Alliance, and intends to leave the Alliance with some of his colleagues and work together with our New China Party in the parliament. β
Zhang Shizhao was a little worried: "Brother Huizi, do adults really have to go out of Sichuan?" Since Guangxu and Xuantong, assassinations have prevailed, such as Xu Xilin's assassination of Anhui Governor Enming, and Wu Yue's assassination of the five foreign ministers. After the military boom last year, it was even more uproar, two Guangzhou generals died at the hands of the party, and Wu Shouqing was also taken off by thieves surrounded by troops. The ancients had a saying: 'The son of a thousand gold does not sit in the hall, the son of a hundred gold does not ride the balance, and the holy lord does not take advantage of the danger and is lucky.' 'My lord now holds the soldiers of the four associations, the land of the three provinces, and the solidity of Cuihan and the Rao of Bashu, so you can sit back and watch the success or failure of the world, so why bother to take risks yourself? β
Yang Du shook his head: "The so-called 'wealth and danger in seeking', if you want to get benefits, you naturally have to pay, and there has never been a reason to drop pies in the sky for no reason." What's more, Baixi's trip is not too risky? β
Shen Xiangyun said curiously: "Mr. Huizi, how can you say that there is no risk? Now Yuan Weiting and Sun Yat-sen are facing each other in the north and south, and they can be described as evenly matched. If Yuan Weiting gets our territory, he can easily take Sun Yat-sen; If Sun Yat-sen gets our territory, he can destroy Yuan Weiting. They all covet our territory! β
Yang Du nodded slightly: "Not bad!" We are now pivotal and decisive in the overall situation, and we can gain the upper hand by favoring whoever is favored. Because of this, Baixi's trip is not too risky. Why? Because Sun Yixian and Yuan Weiting both wanted to try their best to win over Baixi, they couldn't leave the other party any chance to smear them, so both of them would try their best to protect them, how could it be dangerous to tell the truth? β
Jiang Zhiqing said: "What Mr. Huizi said is extremely true, but we can't take it lightly. In Jiang's view, he is not prepared for the enemy, but he is unprepared. So this time, Mr. Izukawa must bring the foot guards! β
Yang Du shook the folding fan: "It's okay." Don't be afraid of 10,000, just in case! β
Jiang Zhiqing hurriedly got up and said, "In this case, Jiang Mou is not presumptuous, and wants to recommend a guard captain to Mr." This person's name is Feng Jishan, the word Huanzhang, born in the eighth year of Guangxu, and grew up in the army since childhood. In the twenty-second year of Guangxu (18 Baoding Fifth Battalion as a soldier, he later changed to the Right Army of Wuwei, and successively served as a sentry commander, team officer, and pipe band. Last year, he participated in the Luanzhou mutiny, and after the failure, he was dismissed from his post and dealt with the law, and he was going to be sentenced to death. He took the opportunity to escape, came to Sichuan, and joined the 46th Mixed Association as a soldier to eat. The students saw that the training of the shed where he was located was quite lawful, so they got acquainted with him, fell in love at first sight, and married him to Jin Lan. If he can lead the guards to escort Mr. out of Sichuan, he is guaranteed to be foolproof! β
Throughout the ages, there have been many people who have escaped because of their strange appearance, such as Han Xin, the Marquis of Huaiyin, who was beheaded when he was a soldier under Liu Bang, and the thirteen people in front were cut, and when it was his turn, he happened to be seen by Xiahou Ying, and the result was "strange words, strong appearance, release but not beheaded", which led to the later King of Qi.
Another example is Zhang Cang in the early years of the Western Han Dynasty, who was sentenced to death for making mistakes, and had already taken off his clothes and lay on the chopping board.
A more recent example is the Qing Dynasty Taizu Nurhachi, when the city of Gule was destroyed by Li Chengliang, the teenage Nurhachi and his younger brother Shuerhaqi were also in the city, and as a result, Li Chengliang's wife "looked strange and returned to the yin", which gave rise to the great trouble of the Ming Dynasty and the foundation of the Qing Dynasty for more than 200 years!
Jiang Zhiqing said this about Feng Jishan, but he couldn't put gold on the face of his sworn brother and try his best to fight for the position of captain of the guard. As for the specific situation, no one can tell!
Shen Xiangyun hesitated a little: "As you said, he grew up in the Beiyang Army, and he must be Yuan Weiting's descendant. How can you be sure that a dignified pipe band has come all the way to us to serve as a soldier? β
Jiang Zhiqing said: "Brother Huanzhang was influenced by his thoughts, and initiated the organization of a martial arts research society with Wang Jinming and others, secretly propagating anti-Qing ideas in the army, and actively carrying out activities. After the Luanzhou mutiny, he signed in the telegram. How could he be Yuan Weiting's descendant? As for coming to Sichuan to serve as a soldier, it was purely forced by the situation, and there was no conspiracy. β
Shen Xiangyun's brows furrowed even tighter: "He is both a member of the Beiyang Army and a member of the party, his identity is unknown, his origin is unclear, this kind of person is the most prone to problems!" In my opinion, it's better to find another one who knows the roots! β
Jiang Zhiqing patted his chest and said to Sun Yuanqi: "Sir, the student is willing to guarantee with his net worth, Feng Huanzhang has no problem!" If he can be the captain of the guard, he will definitely be able to fulfill his duty and live up to his mission. β
Sun Yuanqi felt that he had heard the name "Feng Huanzhang" somewhere, but the name "Feng Jishan" was quite unfamiliar, and waved his hand at the moment: "Qiu Zhai doesn't need to say much, since Kai-shek is so strongly recommended, then use this person!" β
Yang Du said with a smile: "Baixi is going to use this move to show the world that we are not interested in selecting materials and talents here, but only for talents?" β
Sun Yuanqi shook his head: "Huizi said that he was laughing!" How can I have so much thought? I just think that if someone is willing to come to us as a soldier, they will naturally look up to us. If Jiang Zhiqing's recommendation fails and the news comes out, won't it hurt the goodwill of other non-related personnel? By the way, Huizi, when Liu Bei went to Eastern Wu, Zhuge Liang gave him three tricks, which made Zhou Yu lose his wife and lose his soldiers. I will also go down the river today, and I wonder what you have to give me? β
Yang Du pondered for a moment before he said slowly: "In the next scholar, how can he be compared with Zhuge Wuhou?" Moreover, the situation between the north and the south is turbulent, changing three times a day, and many problems are unpredictable, so I can't give you any strategy. It's just that when I was leaving, I wanted to ask Baixi to remember one sentence: In officialdom, you can't easily agree to people, let alone refuse people easily! β
Sun Yuanqi said: "It's easy to understand that you don't easily agree to others." But why can't you say no to others? When the interruption continues, it will be chaotic! β
Yang Du put down the fan: "The officialdom has three points, because no one knows if things will turn around in the future." If you refuse on the spot, it will not only save the face of others, make people unable to get off the stage, but also make things have no room to turn around. So no matter what you do, you have to be modest. βοΌοΌοΌ
