Ma Yunxin whispered behind his nose: "Xingmei hasn't come here yet. If you bring Ye Bao'er here, and then bring in a foreigner, I'm afraid it won't spread well." "Ah! Ah?" Wang Hengyue didn't know whether to laugh or cry. How could he?
This thought?
The conscience of heaven and earth, how could I think of all these things coming together?
Turning to Margaret: "Well, why did you come to Rong County? How long will you stay here? Where will you live?" He asked so many questions at once, as if he wanted to defend himself in front of his wife.
Margaret whispered a few words to Rong Hanyan, and Rong Hanyan said: "Sir, Ruowei's dream is to be a reporter, so she wants to stay in Rong County for a while and then tell her what she has seen.
They will all be taken back to France. I’m afraid it’s hard to say how long they will stay. As for where to live.”
Speaking of this, Rong Hanyan himself laughed first: "Margaret said, sir, your place is very big and has many rooms, so I would like to rent it to you first."
"Nonsense, nonsense!" Wang Hengyue didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He jumped into the Yellow River this time and couldn't clean himself up: "Your uncle is the French acting deputy consul in Chengdu, Du Jean, how can you still use it here?"
"Wait a minute." Ma Yunxin behind her suddenly pulled Wang Hengyue: "Her uncle is the French acting deputy consul in Chengdu?"
"Yes." Wang Hengyue nodded.
Ma Yunxin suddenly smiled: "Miss Rong, could you please tell this young lady that it's great to have friends from far away, let alone foreign friends? My family is the most hospitable, so it doesn't hurt to live here, I think.
You can stay as long as you want. You can choose any room here you want."
After hearing this, Margaret cheered and hurriedly pulled Rong Hanyan to choose a house together.
"Madam, what do you mean by this?," Wang Hengyue asked in his words. In fact, he had a clear mind about what his wife-in-law was going to do.
Ma Yunxin rolled her eyes at him: "I'm afraid you have already guessed in your heart that she is the niece of the French acting deputy consul in Chengdu. Your Excellency is responsible for big things, so you must have a good relationship with these people. Now that Du Rang's niece is with us, in the future
There will be many conveniences..." "What Madam said is absolutely true, absolutely true!" Wang Hengyue said as if he "suddenly realized": "It's just that Madam must not be jealous for no reason in the future."
Ma Yunxin smiled bitterly: "Who in the world can stop what Wang Shuzhi wants to do?" Wang Hengyue smiled with a sly eyebrow...
In February 1913, there was a re-election for the House of Representatives and the Senate in Beijing. The Kuomintang won 392 seats, and the Republic of China won 392 seats.
The three major political parties, Unification and Democracy, only received 223 seats.
The acting leader of the Kuomintang at this time is Song Jiaoren!
On February 1, the second year of the Republic of China, Song Jiaoren set out from Taoyuan, passed through Changsha, and headed east along the Yangtze River from Hankou. He then inspected party affairs in Shanghai, Hangzhou, Nanjing and other places. At that time, the Kuomintang won a big election and the morale of party members was high. Song Jiaoren
The prospects of his political career are rising rapidly. Wherever he goes, there are huge crowds of people at welcome parties. Song Jiaoren also promotes the concept of constitutionalism everywhere. Its main purpose is to produce pure party politics, with the leader of the majority party in Congress serving as the cabinet [prime minister].
Take political responsibility and form a responsible cabinet: first formulate a constitution and then elect a president in accordance with the law.
In the general election of the Congress of the Republic of China, the Kuomintang won a resounding victory. Song Jiaorenyu followed the European "cabinet system"
It is customary to form a cabinet as the leader of the party.
At about ten o'clock in the evening on March 20th, Song Jiaoren set off from Shanghai. Huang Xing, Yu Youren and others were seen off.
At this time, the Shanghai Station already had a reception room for members of the Congress. Because there was not enough time to drive, Song Jiaoren and the comrades seeing him off temporarily went to the members' lounge to take a short rest. At 10:40, the train entered the station and whistled several times.
Passengers boarded the train. Song Jiaoren, Huang Xing, Yu Guiren and others came out of the parliamentarian lounge, walked to the platform, and walked towards the ticket gate. There were many passengers, and they crowded towards the ticket gate in a noisy manner!
A ghostly figure jumped out from the dark shadows. He was wearing a top hat, his face was so low that his eyes could not be seen. He hurriedly passed through the groups of people and chased Song Jiaoren and his party from behind.
When he was about ten meters away, he saw the man raising his hand and hitting him twice with "bang" and "bang".
Hearing the gunshots, the passengers fled one after another. You bumped into me, I bumped into you, and they became a mess. In an instant, the assassin got into the black shadow and disappeared. Song Jiaoren and Huang Xingyu estimated that any one of them also wanted to avoid, but Song Jiaoren had already been hit.
Dan was about to fall over after the bullet, so he quickly held on to the iron railing and said sadly: "No! I've been shot." Just as he was saying this, he heard two more gunshots, and two more bullets "pop" and "pop".
When the call came, the bullet hit the iron railing and knocked out two flames. Fortunately, no one was hurt. Huang Xing and Yu Guiren supported Song Jiaoren on their left and right sides, returned to the platform, and called the station patrol police to find the murderer quickly. Who knew?
Looking around, there was no patrolman. It was urgent to save people. Huang Xing, Yu Guiren and others hurriedly picked up Song Jiaoren and hurried out of the station. Fortunately, there was a car outside, but the owner was not seen.
Everyone immediately helped Song Jiaoren get into the car, and Huang Xing drove him to the Shanghai-Nanjing Railway Hospital.
At the Shanghai-Nanjing Railway Hospital, Song Jiaorenjing's rescue efforts failed and he died at the age of 32.
When he died, his eyes were closed and his fists were clenched tightly. When Chen Qimei saw this, she stamped her feet and cried loudly! "How can I be willing to do this? How can I be willing to do this!" After that, everyone stopped her.
As soon as the news of Song Jiaoren's assassination came out, Tongmenhui elders, Kuomintang members, patriots, men and women, and Japanese friends from Shanghai and Ningbo gathered at the entrance of the hospital to attend the funeral.
There were about 10,000 people attending funerals, carrying ribbons, and protecting and guiding spirits. They lined up in a long line, but in good order. Amidst the sounds of mourning and music, as they entered the Hunan Guild Hall, outside the gate, a high platform tent had been set up, led by the elders of the Tongmenghui.
Mr. Ma Junwu's memorial speech was filled with thousands of words, generous and refreshing. Ten thousand people in the audience mourned him. After the public memorial ceremony, he was buried in the backyard of the Hunan Guild Hall.
Who ordered the killing of Song Jiaoren?
Yuan Shikai? Or maybe not.
In fact, Song Jiaoren was always regarded as a pro-Yuan faction by his comrades in the Tongmenghui who were buried early, so Yuan Shikai always tried to win over him and even regarded him as his nephew!"
If Yuan Shikai wanted to kill Song Jiaoren, he would not choose this sensitive time.
Song Jiaoren's trip to the north was to discuss state affairs with Yuan Shikai. Yuan Shikai could first "listen to his words and observe his actions."
The Kuomintang had already won the election at that time. Even after Song Jiaoren died, there would still be a representative of the Kuomintang as prime minister. It would be even more difficult to deal with the fiery Huang Xinglai. Did Yuan Shikai not think of this?
Yuan Shikai once said: "I have suffered too much in my generation, and I have never defended myself against it. But although I did not kill Xiaochu, Xiaochu was killed because of me. How can I defend this matter? A sensible person must have noticed that,
If I want to kill him, I don’t have to invite him to come and kill him. I can wait for him to come, frame him for his crime and kill him. Why invite him several times and kill him when he is about to go? This is obviously an instruction.
Even a foolish man would not do such stupid things if he could be manipulated by others."
Yuan Shikai's words may have been acting there, or maybe they were true, "Huaizhao, what happened, in such a hurry?" Seeing Wang Qinglu walking towards this in a hurry, Yu Lei stopped him and asked.
"Song Jiaoren, the acting leader of the Kuomintang, has been assassinated, something big is going to happen!" Wang Qinglu waved the telegram in his hand.
"Oh" Yu Lei said "oh" indifferently: "Heng Shuai already knows."
"What? Hengshuai already knows?" Wang Qinglu was startled.
"Yes, we were talking about this inside just now. Hengshuai is resting now, so don't disturb him." After Yu Lei finished speaking, he suddenly smiled and said: "Brother Huaizhao, I heard that in Ya'an, you made a decision
I have achieved great success and helped Hengshuai capture Yana without firing a single shot. I am very gratified. Hengshuai will definitely have more trust in me in the future."
Wang Qinglu couldn't figure out Yu Lei's real thoughts for a while, and after a few perfunctory polite words, he heard Yu Lei say: "Whenever you are free, brother, you must come to my place and sit down. Let's have a good drink."
Two glasses!”
"Okay, okay, definitely, definitely!" "Brother, since we all work for Hengshuai, we are no longer outsiders." Yu Lei walked a few steps with Wang Qinglu and said, "But I'm new here.
I'm not very familiar with some of these situations. I've been with Hengshuai for a long time, and I know a little bit about Hengshuai's temperament. If there is something I don't understand in the future, I will tell you everything I know!
"
Wang Qinglu said "Yes" and suddenly heard Yu Lei sigh: "Actually, we are not as good as those soldiers. We have guns and people in our hands. We only rely on our own brains, but just relying on our brains is not enough. You
Is this the truth?" Wang Qinglu gradually understood what Yu Lei meant.
"Huaizhao, you are a staff officer. You have been with Hengshuai for a long time, and you have been in contact with Hengshuai for a long time. If there is any news in the future, please remember to inform me next time."
Sure enough, when Yu Lei said these words, Wang Qinglu finally confirmed his judgment: Yu Lei is going to form an alliance with him!
This is an ally relationship that uses each other. Yu Lei is in charge of the Bureau of Statistics and has many eyes and ears. If Wang Hengyue has "one of his own" by his side, he can know all the situations at the first time, allowing him to deal with them calmly.
Since coming to Hengshuai, I have heard a lot about Yu Lei. They all say that this man is a weirdo, unscrupulous and ruthless, but Wang Hengyue trusts him very much.
Forming an alliance and having an ally like Yu Lei is beneficial to oneself. But this is the most taboo thing for leaders. Once Hengshuai finds out, what will be the result?
Seeing Wang Qing's confused look, Yu Lei laughed "haha": "I just said it casually. Don't take Huaizhao to heart. From now on, we are colleagues, and we should take care of each other." Wang
Qinglu smiled faintly and said: "I'm new here and don't understand anything. It's the best to have Director Yu take care of me. We are all Hengshuai's subordinates, and it's our duty to help each other!"@.
