The sky was the darkest time before dawn, but the lobby of the Wu family mansion was brightly lit. This hall, which had only fallen for six years, was a standard "Republic multi-story building" and was tall and grand. The lobby was designed with two floors and high design, supported by thick painted wooden columns. The doors and windows were inlaid with colorful Tianjin colored flat glass sheets, luxurious and upscale.

In the lobby, glass oil lamps were lit, high-quality whale oil and colorless glass lampshades, and there were more than a dozen or twenty, all hanging high on the ceiling, illuminating the huge hall as bright as daytime.

There were many people sitting under the glass oil lamp. One by one, the Republic's tycoons in official uniforms sat upright there, pouring cups of refreshing ginseng soup, but they were all so fucked that they didn't say anything.

Brother Zhao Zhong, Murong Mu, Ximen Anguo, Su Dalang, Zhang Xizai, Mi Youren, Ma Zheng, Hua Manshan, Wu Side, Su Guo, Pan Xingye, Lin Chong... They are all big figures who are about to shake the three times when they stomp their feet.

Now he was frowning and didn't know what to say, but just looked at Wu Yijiu sitting on the main seat.

Wu Yijiu is a bit like Wu Haogu, but when he competes with Wu Haogu, he is even more handsome when he was young. Compared to his two brothers who led troops to fight, he is a little weak. However, he is now wearing a military uniform and an ordinary non-commissioned uniform. His position in the South Bank Fortress is an engineer technical officer, and his military rank is just a sergeant.

A sergeant, now sitting high in the main seat, facing a group of father-generation veterans, was not at all inferior in momentum.

Just this is much better than his father when he was younger!

Brother Zhao Zhong said softly, "After a long time, you are the legitimate son of the Wu family, you can tell me. What should I do now? Although the head of state is auspicious and heavenly figure, someone will have to temporarily control the situation, right?"

Wu Yijiu looked at Brother Zhao Zhong, and of course he knew that Brother Zhao Zhong had always supported his brother Wu Yiyong.

If it is an imperial system now, this senior and his family will probably decide their life and death tonight.

But my father designed an unprecedented political system... The world is for the public! It is not a fool who deceives others, but a real person! At least hundreds of thousands of military citizens believe it.

In this case, whoever is crazy and uses a knife in Tianjin is betrayal of the Republic! Hundreds of thousands of military citizens, especially the second generation of Wuyijiu's generation, would not agree at all.

These second-generation citizens are the backbone of the Republic's army, and they want to defend the Republic!

So even a person like Brother Zhao Zhong can only follow the rules!

"The Great Zhou Republic has its own "Constitution"," Wu Yijiu said, "We just need to act in accordance with the Constitution. As long as we abide by the Constitution, the foundation of the Republic will be solid! The knights outside will be loyal to the Senate. With their allegiance, the Jin Kingdom, Song Kingdom and the rebellious Yelu Aoluo will no longer be a problem.

If we break the "Constitution" ourselves, the republic will become in chaos. Then the enemy will take advantage of the chaos and our wealth and glory will be filled with mist!

This "Constitution" is not only the foundation of the Republic, but also the foundation of the wealth and honor of all of you here for generations!"

What a Wu Yijiu!

This is just right, and does not use the financial resources of the martial artist to buy it, but holds up the great power of the Republic's Constitution.

The elders present all gave a thumbs up in their hearts. This Wuyi has long been a master of Yuntai Law. He has a very thorough understanding of the importance of "The Constitution".

He may not be as good as Yelu Aoluo, who plays politics within the framework of the "Decree" and the Senate, but he is first-class.

And in the Great Zhou Republic, how many people who can become senators are willing to really destroy the Constitution and demolish the Senate?

There are hundreds of elders, but there is only one emperor...

Under the republic system, no one dared to touch the elders. Under the imperial system, it was also unpredictable to become the prime minister.

So any powerful veteran dared to stand up and destroy the "Constitution" and destroy the republic, and immediately became the target of public criticism.

Wu Yiyong and Wu Yixin, the two Wu family men who were leading troops outside, just stood up to defend the Republic and returned to Tianjin. The Republic was about to be in chaos!

This situation is something that all the senators do not want to see. Even the so-called "monarchy" must select an emperor within the framework of the "Constitution" and the Senate... The "Constitution" and the Republic are all about it. It is just that the title of the head of state can be turned into an emperor, so that Wu Haogu's descendants can be heredited. At the same time, the authority of the Senate and the "Constitution" must be maintained!

"Long time," Ma Zheng, who supported Wu Yijiu's successor, said, "But you are not even an elder now!"

Wu Yijiu said, "I am a noble citizen and have the right to run for elections according to the Constitution. Now, as long as a veteran in Tianjin resigns, I will participate in the by-election immediately."

It is indeed difficult for Wu Yijiu to engage in politics according to the "Constitution" and the rules of the Senate.

As he spoke, his eyes slowly swept across the lobby, "Sir, may you not support Yoshihisa, right?"

"Of course we support it!"

"Surely support!"

"It is natural to be a veteran after a long time..."

None of the senators opposed it. Wu Yijiu was the upright choice. Whoever objected was to be with the senators who supported the Wu family in the Senate.

And what's the use of opposing it? Is it not allowed the elders to resign? Or is it not allowed Wu Yijijiu to run for election? With the power of the Wu family in Tianjin, it is easy to hold Wu Yijiu to the throne of the elders.

Once he became a veteran, it would be easy to win in the head of state by-election.

Of course, the premise is that the Wu family can unite!

If Ximen Qing supports Wu Yijiu, then Zhao Zhong Ge, Ximen Anguo, Murong Mu, Zhang Xizai, and Hua Manshan can only follow up.

As for Ma Zheng, Su Dalang, Su Guo, Lin Chong, and Pan Xingye, the group of people who originally supported Wu Yijiu, there was nothing to say.

Although it is a bit of a joke to choose a young man in his twenties to be the head of state. However, this matter is in line with the Constitution and the principles of the Republic. At most, others don’t like it and have no tricks.

Wu Yijiu came to power because of the by-election, and he still has two years to establish his prestige, that is, to launch a foreign war, and seize new land for the second generation of military citizens!

The "second generation" who have obtained land and citizenship will naturally become Wu Yijiu's supporters. With their support, Wu Yijiu's head of state will naturally sit firmly...

...

The news of the fire in the summer resort and the disappearance of Wu Haogu, the head of republic, was made public through the official newspaper "Republic Daily" on the afternoon of the third day of August.

The Song Dynasty Embassy, ​​located in the Embassy of Beicheng, Tianjin, naturally learned about the news through newspapers.

In the inner hall, the minister Zhang Bangchang and the deputy envoy Qin Hui sat opposite each other, each of whom had just obtained a copy of the Republic Daily, looking over and over again.

I don’t know how long it took to read Zhang Bangchang to throw away the Republic Daily, and breathe, and said with a complicated expression, “Is this a mess? I don’t know if it’s a blessing or a disaster?”

Qin Hui also put down the newspaper and looked at Zhang Bangchang, "How could it be a disaster for the minister? The enemy chief died and the enemy's country was in trouble. For our dynasty, the benefits outweigh the disadvantages."

Zhang Bangchang has been an ambassador in Tianjin for two years, unlike Qin Hui who has only taken office for a few days.

Listening to Qin Hui's words, Zhang Bangchang just shook his head, "It's hard to say, it's hard to say... Not to mention whether Wu Haogu was really dead, even if he died, the Zhou Kingdom might not be in chaos. You read the newspaper that the veteran Wu Chengjiu resigned and the noble Wu Yijiu ran for the Nankai District veteran, and he will vote tomorrow. Wu Yijiu is Wu Haogu's legitimate son!"

"But Wu Haogu has two sons who are leading troops outside!" Qin Hui said, "And the founding heroes of Zhou State, the elders and nobles can really submit to Wu Yijiu, this junior? According to the officials, there will be an internal strife in Zhou State!

This is the Emperor Song of Heaven!”

Zhang Bangchang looked up at Qin Hui, "Meet, you want to..."

Qin Hui took a breath, "Minister, it doesn't matter what the subordinates think. What matters now is to immediately kill Wu Haogu and send out the news of a civil war in Zhou State!"

"Yes, yes, you have to report it immediately!"

Qin Hui said again, "You are the one who is in Hejian Mansion!"

Since Tao Jiefu presided over the military affairs of Hebei, Hejian Prefecture was the headquarters of the Hebei Xuanfu Department. The current Hebei Xuanfu was Lu Yihao. Among the civil servants of the Song Dynasty, he was also considered a soldier-minded person.

"Okay." Zhang Bangchang said, "Let's go right now! I'm afraid that Congress of Zhou will block the boundary river if it's too late."

The most convenient way to leave from Tianjin to Song State is to take a boat to walk the border river. If the wind is opposite, you can reach the Qingzhou territory of Song State in a few hours.

At the junction of the Yellow River, Border River and Baigou River in Qingzhou, the Song army built a Sanhekou Basin. There is an inn in the basin. You can transfer to the post horse at the post station and you can reach Hejian Mansion in 150 miles.

If Qin Hui worked harder, he would be able to walk the entire journey one day and one night.

There were 600 miles between the Xuanfu Department of Hejian Prefecture and the imperial court of Kaifeng Prefecture to maintain contact. In less than two days, the news of the drastic changes in the Zhou Kingdom could be informed to the Song Dynasty Emperor Zhao Ji.

However, Lu Yihao, the Hebei Xuanfu envoy and the governor of Hejian Prefecture, had great power and had two major powers: "transfer diplomacy" and "acting cheaply".

Moreover, there are hundreds of battalions under Lu Yihao's command, nearly 100,000 new troops who screamed and wanted to start a war. As long as he wanted to fight, excuses, or something, someone would always help prepare it!

As for the plan to raid Tianjin, it had long been drafted by a group of new military officers who graduated from the Martial Arts Academy and placed it on Lu Yihao's desk.

The raid plan is very simple, which is to concentrate the greatest force and take the shortest route to raid Tianjin, the capital of the Great Zhou Republic!
Chapter completed!
