Although Duan Qirui's appearance in the Senate for questioning today was a closed-door meeting, it was completely defenseless for Yuan, Li, Sun, Song, and other party bigwigs. Soon after the conclusion of the Senate session, Li Yuanhong, who was far away in Wuchang, Hubei Province, received a detailed report on the proceedings of the meeting.

Seeing that the New China Party and some Republican congressmen pointed the finger at themselves and were about to propose an impeachment case, Li Yuanhong, who has always been known as a "loyal elder", was also a little uncontrollable, his face became iron-blue, and he slapped the table and scolded: "These corrupt Confucian lawyers, but they know how to bite the text and chew the words and find faults, and they know what it means to be in a hurry to obey power and control the country's chaos?" Zhang Zhenwu wolf ambition, the owl and the deer are punished, everyone gets and is punished, these corrupt Confucian litigants are now not grateful to the old man for eliminating harm for the country, and they actually attack the old man for being lawless and careless of human life? It's really hateful!

"When this limelight passes, we must give Liu Chengyu and Zhang Bolie eye medicine, and let them know what the three eyes of Ma Wangye are! In the past, it was said that 'destroy the history of the family and assassinate the family, and copy the county order', could it be that after changing the name of the country and implementing the republic, the dignified vice president, the governor of the Hubei army, and the chief of staff would have no way to take an ordinary senator? The old man still doesn't believe it! ”..

His secretary, Rao Hanxiang, casually persuaded on the side: "Your Excellency, please calm your anger!" These people don't know the general situation, they only know how to follow the rules and stick to the rope and ink, and they are not enough to do big things, and it is not worth being angry with them. The key is that now there is a lot of noise in the Senate, and the voice of impeachment is very loud, and adults still need to deal with it carefully! ”

Li Yuanhong took a sip of cold tea before he said: "Although the old man is known as 'Li Bodhisattva' in the community. But it's not a mud bodhisattva, not to mention that the mud bodhisattva still has three points of soil! Aren't they going to impeach the old man? Later, you can send a telegram to běijīng and ask all Republican lawmakers not to attend tomorrow's vote. I'd like to see. If a quorum is not reached, how can the Senate vote! ”

Rao Hanxiang said: "If the adult responds like this, it will naturally win, but it is inevitably a little negative, which will greatly affect the reputation of the adult, and I am afraid it is not a good strategy." ”

Li Yuanhong asked: "If the old man thinks of the monk, how should the old man deal with it?" ”

Rao Hanxiang said: "According to my humble opinion. Blame and resignation is the next policy, struggle is the middle policy, and retreat is the best policy. ”

"Oh?" Li Yuanhong's eyes widened slightly.

Rao Hanxiang said: "My lord is the first righteous father and the heart of the world. It can be said to be pivotal, and the reputation is long, Yuan Xiangcheng, Sun Yat-sen, Huang Keqiang, Sun Baixi, etc. all regard adults as enemies. Yuan Xiangcheng framed the adult, and copied the adult's secret telegram word for word from his announcement announcing Zhang Zhenwu's crime. You can get a glimpse of it. He wanted to pass the move. Corrupt your reputation and turn your allies into rebellion, thus forcing you to join his side and become his puppet.

"Needless to say, the twists and turns between Huang Keqiang and adults are self-explanatory. As for Sun Yat-sen, although he affirmed his merits in the Wuchang Shouyi and praised him as 'the first great man of the Republic of China', there was a feud between the League, the Literary Society, and the Gongjin Association, and there were disputes between the League and the Republican Party. Inevitably, there are many members of the League who are noisy in Sun Yat-sen's ears, slandering the adults and plundering the fruits of the League's revolution. I'm afraid that he is also optimistic about the departure of adults.

"Let's talk about Sun Baixi. Although we have no grudges and no enmity with him, Hubei is choking the throat of Sichuan, and if they want to make a difference, they will inevitably attack Hubei. This time, the Sichuan army took advantage of the chaos of Fang Wei and Zhang Guoquan to control Yichang and Shinan in the east, which shows Sun Baixi's ambitions. I'm afraid that he also hopes that the adults will go to work.

"The so-called 'what the enemy is quick is what I hurt; Since Yuan Xiangcheng, Sun Yat-sen, Huang Keqiang, Sun Baixi, etc. all want adults to go to work, then adults naturally can't let them be satisfied. Therefore, resignation is the next policy. ”

The resignation of officials was all the rage in the early days of the Republic of China, and many governors and legislators would avoid the crime because of their own mistakes or political frustrations, and then go to Shanghai, Běijīng, Tianjin and other places to work as politicians or apartments, or even abandon officials to engage in business. Li Yuanhong finally climbed to the position of vice president, and he has just tasted the taste of power, how can he be willing to take the blame and resign? Hearing this, he also nodded: "Once the old man retires, it will be difficult to guarantee the achievements of Wuchang's first righteousness in the public domain, and the life of a certain person in the private will be worrying." Resignation is indeed the next policy! ”

Rao Hanxiang continued: "As the chairman of the Republican Party, you can control more than 20 votes in the Senate, and with the support of members of other parties, it is enough to ensure that the impeachment case cannot reach a quorum and ensure that the position of vice president is as stable as Mount Tai." However, such an unyielding and stubborn resistance will inevitably affect the good reputation of the adults who created the Republic of China and cherished peace, and will affect the future of the great treasure. Therefore, in the end, the struggle is the middle way. ”

Li Yuanhong nodded: "Then the monk will tell me your best strategy!" ”

Rao Hanxiang said: "The strategy of retreating is divided into three steps, the first step is to reply to the Senate's questions, and then admit that in the execution of Zhang Zhenwu, Zhang Zhenwu committed as many as 14 major crimes, accounting for the vast majority; In the process of handling Zhang Zhenwu's case, in order to take into account the overall situation of Hubei's safety, there are three unavoidable points; The time is rushed, the formalities are not in order, and there are three that can be cited as one's own sin, and these are of secondary importance. Although Zhang Zhenwu had a meritorious uprising, it should be better than it should be; But he undermined the republic, made bad proposals, disturbed the stability of Hubei, and became the public enemy of the Republic of China. Adults eliminate harm for the people and calm the chaos for the country, although there are small flaws in the middle, but it is enough to show the world.

The second step is to preferentially deal with the unfinished matters after Zhang Zhenwu's death, such as giving a large pension to the widow and young son of the Zhang family, changing the school founded by Zhang Zhenwu into a public school, and "Aurora Rì Daily" being taken over by the Wuchang branch of the League. Then he telegraphed the resignation of the whole country, asked the president and the Senate to resign as vice president, and recommended Huang Keqiang to succeed him as the governor of Hubei and the chief of staff. ”

"What if it turns out to be true?" Li Yuanhong is worried about this problem.

Rao Hanxiang said with a smile: "Your Excellency, don't worry, when Rì Huang Keqiang was driven out of Hubei by your Excellency, where would you have the face to come back and replace your Excellency as the Governor of Hubei and Chief of Staff?" Even if he is willing, he is afraid that Yuan Xiangcheng will not be willing either! ”

Li Yuanhong is still a little worried: "It's better to always be careful!" ”

Rao Hanxiang said: "That is the third step of this strategy, first in the name of all the people of Hubei, send a telegram to the whole country to retain the people, saying that since the uprising in Hubei, there is no rì in the stormy waves, and the Lord Lai has governed the party and the town is appropriate, so that the order can be ordered, and the market will not be alarmed." Without adults, Hubei would not have had the peaceful and stable situation it has today. Zhang Zhenwu's crime was extremely heinous, and everyone knew that the fathers and children of Hubei were all overjoyed when they heard about the law, thinking that this was the most righteous move to uphold the law and to please the people since the founding of the Republic of China.

Then, in the name of the Hubei provincial military circles, the Hubei generals jointly refuted the Senate's questioning point by point, indicating that the secret telegram of the lord Yuan Xiangcheng requesting the arrest and killing of Zhang Zhenwu was the result of the discussion of the military meeting of all colleagues in the Hubei army. The fact that an adult kills a Republican party official as a Republican leader just proves that adults are selfless and selfless, not murdered because of personal grudges. At the end of the telegram, he used a rude and martial tone to threaten Zhang Bolie, Liu Chengyu and other congressmen, and I believe that it will achieve miraculous results. ”

Li Yuanhong was not very interested in the first two steps of retreat, but he was very interested in the Hubei generals who jointly sent a telegram to threaten the Senate, and immediately said: "Brother Se is the first in Guangji at the age of sixteen, and he is the first in the year of the weak crown, and he is ranked second in the Jingshi University Hall; He also studied in Dongying, graduated from the University of Political Science and Law, and can be described as a natural wisdom, learning through China and the West, and also Panjiang land and sea, and a large pen like a rafter. If you draft a telegram for the military circles of Hubei Province, you will definitely be able to increase your sè a lot! I wonder if the monk is willing to write? ”

Rao Hanxiang replied: "I don't dare to ask for it!" Immediately dragged the pen and paper, thought for a while, and then put down the pen like flying, the pen did not stop, without adding points, more than half an hour to write a telegram of nearly 1,000 words, read it once, and then present it to Li Yuanhong.

Li Yuanhong nodded slightly when he first looked at it, and when he read the jīng color, he couldn't help but exclaim: "This text is well written, 'Nai E's parliamentarians made rumors, barked wildly, and dared to impeach zhèngfǔ and overthrow the people's state. Corpses? Mess with the party? A glass of wine? The grace of money settlement? Suppressed madness and brazen disregard? Your congressman has been in office for more than a few months, and he has not heard of the law of our country, and he has not heard of a matter for my country, and he has been a military criminal who has only been guilty of a crime and a true law, and he has repeatedly protected and shouted endlessly, and then he has been questioned, questioned, and then impeached, and he has been called the leader of the uprising, and then he has been called the outstanding father. Who will your councillor bully? Deception? 'Completely outlining the faces of Zhang Bolie, Liu Chengyu and others with their hearts, it is simply called out!

"That's a better one!" If you are to be impeached, please reply to the paragraphs of the Vice-President's telegram within twenty-four o'clock. If your member makes a single word of slander, he will also be the one who receives it. Otherwise, your congressman is vexatious and takes revenge, because of his close personal relationship, my generation has a conscience, and we cannot allow Zhenwu and the rest of the party to be the representative of our country, so it is no wonder that our generation treats it seriously. It's not far from seeing each other, and it's still amazing! 'The pen and ink of the monk really penetrated the paper back into the wood, this text was murderous, and the threat of drawing a knife jumped on the paper, which was really fast! ”

Li Yuanhong still felt that he was not enjoying it after reading it again, and re-read it from the beginning, and then praised: "Although this text is less than a thousand words, it is more powerful than 100,000 oceans, enough to tie up three to five senators!" If the timing is right, the monk will write a few more telegrams, why worry that the Senate will not bow down? ”

He immediately summoned the confidential officer and explained: "Immediately send this telegram to Li Bentang, Wu Zhaolin, Wang Anlan, Tang Xizhi and other generals above the standard level of the Hubei army, and order it to be co-signed and sent to the Senate before 8 o'clock tomorrow morning." The old man wants to see how many of those senators are hard-nosed! (To be continued......)
