Chapter Thirty-Six Yiren
"Sir, can't we really cooperate with the Tongmenghui to overthrow the Qing Dynasty?" The question was Yu Ziyi. When he saw the secret reports from Tokyo, he couldn't help but hope that the Two Sessions could cooperate and overthrow the Qing Dynasty as soon as possible.
Wang Jitong whispered: "Why should we overthrow the Qing Dynasty as soon as possible?"
After healing for a long time, although the wound had scabbed, he still couldn't speak loudly. Sun Wen, Huang Xing and others created public opinion in Tokyo and planned to build a new revolutionary group. Many people in the Revival Association received news. Sun Wen's speech was openly published in the China Times. Faced with this situation, most people in the Revival Association believed that it was unnecessary to join. It was a revolution. Everyone should do their own things and not interfere with each other. Those who hold this view generally believe that Revival will be strong and strong, so why bother to join and he will regard others as the leader. As for the old people with Huaxing, such as Yu Ziyi, they hoped to cooperate with the Two Sessions in the Revival Association with the desire to succeed as soon as possible. The seven members of the Committee also believed that there was no need to join the Tongmenghui. Only Zhang Taiyan, who was in prison, believed that the Two Sessions should be promoted and advanced. Others did not even want to cooperate because the Tongmenghui was infiltrated by the Japanese.
"Why should we overthrow the Qing Dynasty as soon as possible..." Wang Jitong's rebellious question was strange, and Yu Ziyi thought to himself: "Even if he is against the Qing Dynasty, can't it be too early?"
Wang Jitong didn't want to speak, so he just wrote on the table with his hands: What are the college students? What are the backbone officials?
The Fuxing Club says that college students are just college students in foreign universities, not students from domestic universities and students from Japan who have completed three-month crash courses. Since the Guimao year, the Fuxing Club has sent hundreds of Western students, while the Tongji University has only one thousand students at most. In addition, the Qing Dynasty sent students to Europe, the United States and other places, there are less than three thousand college students in China. With this, people cannot build a new China. The backbone officials actually refer to graduates from government affairs schools. Regardless of the position of these government affairs graduates, the number is less than one thousand. There are no scientific and technological talents, and there are not enough government affairs talents. After the revolution, the whole country will be covered with sand. At that time, the merits and demerits will not be offset.
Yu Ziyi thought about Wang Jitong's meaning, and realized that revolution cannot be achieved by passion alone. In the words of the internal monthly report, this is a systematic project. Although he has a lot of feelings for the people of Huaxinghui,... Seeing that Wang Jitong seemed to be asleep, Yu Ziyi stood up and went out gently.
At 4:00 p.m. on July 20, at the Jinya Residence of Rinnansaka Moto, Akasaka District, Tokyo.
Amid the applause, the meeting was discussed. Waiting for the applause to stop. Huang Xing said again: "According to the principle of separation of powers advocated by Mr. Sun Zhongshan." As soon as he finished speaking, the applause was again, "The Minister of the Evaluation Department is Wang Zhaoming,... The General Director of the Justice Department is Deng Jiayan..."
The Tongmenghui, which had been preparing for nearly a month, was finally established. Everyone here was very happy. They only felt that the revolution was just around the corner and that great events were expected. They shouted long live until the meeting was dispersed. Although the people dispersed, Sun Wen, Huang Xing, Fang Junying and others stayed. Huang Xing said: "Comrade Runru, there have always been three ways of revolution. For advocating, for righteousness, and for assassination. If you don't mention advocating, I and the Prime Minister have already started preparing for righteousness. But this assassination is more suitable for women, and I and the Prime Minister were before.
When planning and organizing, I felt that an implementation department should be added below the executive department to be responsible for assassination. However, in order to cover up the news, it was not made public at the meeting just now. Since there was an assassination department, there should be someone who could take on this great responsibility. Among the women of my association, Huang Xing looked at Sun Wen again and said: "Only Comrade Runru can always convince people with virtue, be steady and persistent in dealing with things, be cautious and decisive. Both we and the Prime Minister believe that this is not Comrade Runru."
After Huang Xing finished speaking, Sun Wen said: "The revolutionary party has carried out many incidents, and the Qing Dynasty has been very strict in its defense. Only women can get close to Manchu officials. Keqiang and others developed bombs very early, but they were not allowed to have the opportunity. When the Tongmenghui was first established, it would still take several assassinations to crack down on the prestige of the Qing Dynasty and enhance the morale of our party members. Especially now that the national constitutional voice is clamoring and there is no destruction, the Kang and Liang people will be more powerful."
The two giants in the meeting lobbying together. Although Fang Junying was nervous, she did not refuse. She only said that she was not careful of her life, but she was afraid of ruining the revolutionary events. In the end, she only said that she had to consider three days before she decided whether to accept the appointment. After Fang Junying left, Sun Wen said: "Keqiang, can this... work?"
"Mr. Zhongshan, just believe me. If Comrade Runru agrees immediately, I will feel that he has chosen the wrong person. Assassination can only be successful by being cautious." Huang Xing has always known the people of the Tokyo Revolutionary People. Although Yang Dusheng and others were responsible for the assassination before, it was ineffective. The reason was that the man was inconvenient to hide. Among the female members, he only felt that Fang Junying could take on this great responsibility.
"That's good. Now the newspapers say that the Qing Dynasty is going to establish a constitution. Although its constitution is also a false constitution, it can be extremely capable of bewitching the people and is very unfavorable to our revolution. We must destroy it." The Russian-Japanese war was stopped, and both sides accepted peace talks. The constitutionalists immediately advocated that Japan's victory was a victory of constitutionalism, and Russia's defeat was a defeat of autocracy. Under the advocacy of public opinion, the relatives and noble ministers of the Qing Dynasty, as well as the governors from all over the country, also held this opinion. Just a few days ago, the court had announced that five ministers had been sent overseas to investigate the constitutional government.
"Mr. Zhongshan is right," Huang Xing whispered again: "This matter has been arranged long ago. Now my member Yang Dusheng is in the capital. He has long had a friendship with the military minister Qu Hongji, and some news can still be found out."
"Oh!" Sun Wen was overjoyed. In the past, he made righteous words because he had no internal support. Now that there is such a person who can connect to the Military Affairs Office, it will be of great help to the revolution. He hurriedly said: "Can this Qu Hong Ji... be able to move to our side? If it succeeds, he can be the first president of China."
Sun Wen didn't know Qu Hongji's character very well. He wanted to say that he would be the emperor to support the revolution, but after the Tongmenghui was established, the emperor would be afraid that it would be difficult for the emperor to become the president. Huang Xing was a little confused about his words, but it was difficult to tell him that Qu Hongji was a Qingliu group. He was always very honest and loyal to the emperor. How could he cause a revolution? "Mr. Zhongshan, this is probably very difficult. This person is an old person and cannot be impressed by an official position. Now the Qing Dynasty is preparing for the five ministers to go abroad for a while, and Yang Dusheng has been arranged as the escort of these foreign ministers."
When Sun Wen and Huang Xing were talking about how to destroy the Qing Dynasty constitution, Fang Junying had already returned to her residence. But when she saw the door, she felt that the atmosphere was not right. She looked at Fang Shengtao and Fang Shengdong asked, "What's going on?"
"Sister, he sent someone here." Fang Shengtao said. The "he" he was talking about was actually Fang Junying's fiancé Wang Jiantang. He was a rich child, had a relative in-laws with the Fang family and also studied in Tokyo. However, in order to avoid suspicion before marriage, he and Fang Junying never interacted with him.
Fang Junying's face changed when she heard that he was coming, and she asked, "What did he send someone to do?"
"What else can you do?" said the young Fang Shengdong of the young man. "He wants you not to go to the revolution and marry him as soon as possible. As soon as the man said this, I beat him out. You have not even passed the door, so you are here."
I heard that it was indeed something I was worried about. Fang Junying was even more thoughtful. When the two leaders asked her to serve as the Minister of the Implementation Department, she was worried about her most of her marriage. At the beginning of the month, I heard that most of the Fang family had joined the Revolutionary Party, so Wang Jiantang sent someone to inquire. Now I guess she knew that she had really joined the Revolutionary Party, so this happened.
"I heard that he has also joined the club?" Fang Junying said.
"Well. Who said he seemed to have joined the club? I was wondering at the beginning that such an honest person had revolutionized. It turned out that he was just for you not to let you revolution. Do you know what he said? He said that there is enough men in the revolution, and it is better for women to raise children at home." Fang Shengtao knew more people in the organization. After inquiring, he found that Wang Jiantang had joined the club.
"Is revolution a man's patent?" Fang Junying retorted after hearing this. But she could only refute this. Her marriage with Wang Jiantang was signed by her parents. Revolution could be reversed, but she couldn't resist this engagement. After she refuted, she went back to the room. However, the more she thought about it, the more unhappy she felt, she walked to Cheng Liu's house opposite. Before she knocked on the door, she opened it. Cheng Liu brought a cup of tea and said with a smile: "Sister Ying, come in and have tea."
I heard the conversation in the living room just now. She only felt that Wang Jiantang was not worthy of Fang Junying at all. She was just a matchmaker with her parents. It was difficult for women who came out of the aristocratic family to fight. However, she learned Western learning when she was a child, and she was independent in her mind and would still resist when she should.
"Cheng Xu, what are you doing?" Fang Junying took a sip of tea, scald water into her mouth, and her mind suddenly became energetic. She saw that the table was full of tickets.
"This... this is the ticket for Mr. Zhongshan's speech in a few days. I'm stamping it." Cheng Xu said while packing these things. He said, "I don't know who thought it out. The tickets are more expensive than the event photo. Look, this special seat is actually two yuan. I really don't know if it can be sold."
Fang Junying also knew about selling tickets. She looked at Cheng Wu seriously and smiled and said, "It's probably because the funding will be tight. Uh, didn't Mr. Zhongshan ask you to be her English secretary? Why are you responsible for selling tickets and stamping again?"
"Mr. Zhongshan travels around Europe and the United States, and he must be fluent in English. I can't help me as his secretary." Cheng Xu finished packing up his things and sat beside Fang Junying and smiled, "I still like to be with you Sister Ying, no matter what you do."
Seeing Cheng Zhu joking, Fang Junying said, "Are you with me? I want to revolutionize, overthrow the corrupt Qing Dynasty, and let the people of the world live a good life, but now, he doesn't want me to revolution..."
"Sister Ying, didn't you just say that revolution is not the right of men, and we women can also revolutionize," Cheng Wu said, and couldn't help but think of a person he was dreaming about. If he also told himself that he didn't want to revolution and just have a child, what should he do?
Seeing Cheng Junying talking suddenly stunned. Fang Junying patted her shoulder hard, which scared Cheng Junying. When she saw Fang Junying looking at her with a smile, her face turned red and she was overwhelmed. She carried it over. Fang Junying smiled, and said while laughing, "Who are you thinking about again."
Cheng Xu was embarrassed and turned around and threw himself on his folded quilt, and said embarrassedly, "This...I...had nothing."
Fang Junying had known why she came to Tokyo, and she knew that love had fallen into her soul when she looked at her appearance. It was a pity that the person didn't know where she was. Thinking of this, she had no worries about making fun of her, she asked, "You are just waiting so stupidly, will he come to find you?"
The question that Fang Junying asked was something Cheng Xu had been thinking about for the past two years. She answered for a while: "He promised me before that as long as I disappeared, he would come back to find me." After saying this, she blushed again: "I dreamed a few days ago... I dreamed that the Qing Dynasty soldiers chased me. I had no way to escape, and then..."
Seeing Cheng Wu's happy appearance, Fang Junying didn't want to break it, so she asked: "What then?"
"Then..." Cheng Xu blushed, "and... he suddenly appeared... and saved me."
After Cheng Xu said this, his face turned bloody and he covered his face under the quilt. Fang Junying laughed and ended with the recent Western fairy tale. "... From then on, the prince and the princess lived a happy life!"
"You..." Cheng Xu was even more embarrassed when he threw the pillow and hit him. Fang Junying hurriedly said, "Okay. I won't laugh at you anymore, I won't laugh at you anymore."
The two women's fight lasted for a while before they stopped. Fang Junying felt that there was a quarrel and her mood suddenly improved a lot. She suddenly felt that she should accept the position of Minister of the Implementation Department. Maybe she would have sacrificed herself before the marriage was time. But if a beautiful girl like Cheng Xu was sacrificed, it would be too unworthy.
"Why do you want to revolution? Cheng Zhu?" Fang Junying suddenly asked after calming for a long time.
"Why... why did I revolution?" Cheng Xu suddenly felt a little sad. She said, "Our family is both a revolutionary party. My dad is, and so is my brother."
"What?" Fang Junying, who was lying on the bed, straightened up and looked at Cheng Wu and asked, "How come your family is full of revolutionary parties?"
Cheng Xu's eyes were a little wandering, and he said lightly: "My father is Cheng Weinan, the last time Mr. Zhongshan mentioned. My family lives in Honolulu. During the Sino-Japanese War of 1894, my father joined the Xingzhonghui. Later, my brother, the only brother, heard that he wanted to overthrow the Qing Dynasty, and he was beaten to death by the Qing soldiers when he was promoting righteousness in Huizhou..."
Cheng Xu said, tears fell like beads. After her brother died, her father was very strict with her. She didn't want her to die like a son. She just wanted her to marry her cousin's house and live a peaceful life. But the power of education and role models cannot be reversed. She read the Su newspaper in Shanghai, attended Zhang Yuan's lectures, and met Yang Rui, all of which were driven by this potential inner thoughts. She only felt that although Yang Rui had a kind of birth.
A sense of alienation, but his proud talent and enthusiasm for the country and nation are extremely important to the revolution. Of course, this was just her initial thought. The later she felt that she could not live without this person. But Yang Rui, based on the habits of modern people, did not speak her own words when she was with her. At the same time, she did not know anyone from the patriotic society. After arriving in Tokyo, she was embarrassed to use up her savings and care less about current affairs. All these made her not know that Yang Rui was already a revolutionary.
The reeds are green and the white dew is not frost. What Cheng Xu can do is to wait except believe.
*
The Tongmenghui is preparing for how to fight from Tokyo to Beijing, while the Revival Society is thinking about how to fight from Tokyo to the United States.
Zhang Shi was wearing a kimono and had been in the tavern for a long time. After returning to Shanghai in June, he was left empty. Now he has finally received the task, which has inspired him again. He only felt that the "Four Blades" plan this time was much more difficult than selling intelligence earlier, but he liked this. The more difficult it was, the more fulfilling he felt after completing it.
It was very difficult to implement what Yang Rui said casually. Zhang Shi had some settlements for the lower class of Japan with his intelligence network. In the early Meiji period, he abolished the vassal state and established a prefecture, and bought the lord's land in the form of bonds, which made the people go from tenants who had no personal freedom to self-cultivated farmers. Although the land purchase bonds that could be used as bank capital almost destroyed Japan's financial system, the lives of the people were better than before. But the good times were not common. In 1890, the freedom and civil rights movement was forced to stop, and after the privatization of state-owned industries, the lower class farmers and some lower class vassals lived in extremely difficult life.
Under complete westernization, no one doesn't like money, even if he claims to have the spirit of Bushido. However, Zhang Shi did not go to the poorest Hokkaido to find people as per the advice of the intelligence website, but came to Yokohama, the most open port. When he finished drinking the sake bowl in the wine pot, a sweat-covered Japanese rushed in from outside. When he saw Zhang Shi, he knelt down and said, "Sir, I'm really sorry. I've been waiting for you for a long time."
"Baga!" Zhang Shi cursed: "Are you just letting the adults wait for you here? Get out!"
When the Japanese who came came heard Zhang Shi's angry, they even lowered their heads. Even if Zhang Shi poured the wine in the glass on his face, he didn't dare to speak. Zhang Shi was a Chinese nationality in his identity and a superior nobleman. Although his identity certificate was forged, no one would investigate him in Yokohama, as long as he did not offend someone he shouldn't have offended.
In fact, Saburo Oda should have been scolded. He was unable to change his gambling nature. Although he worked hard after taking Zhang Shi's money, gambling always took time, especially when he suddenly had good luck, the gambling game was even more stalemate. When he finally lost everything, he remembered that the time he agreed with Lord Nishizhu seemed to have passed for a long time.
Zhang Shi asked for a drink again, and Oda Saburo had to kneel down and not speak. After only one hour, Zhang Shi was a little confused when he asked, "Ma Lu, have you done anything serious today besides gambling?"
When Xiaotian heard Zhang Shi pay attention to him, he was overjoyed and said, "Sir, I have found the person you want."
"Oh. Have you found it?" Zhang Shi pretended not to mind and said, "Have you ever killed someone?"
Zhang Shi's standard for selecting people is whether he has killed anyone, Oda knew about this. He nodded, "Yes, sir. He must have killed anyone. Although he is poor, he still maintains the dignity of a warrior. I believe this must be the person you are looking for. In the future, when you arrive in Luguo, you will definitely be able to ensure your safety."
"Well! Okay, you can bring him here at this time tomorrow." Zhang Shi threw a few pieces of money from his arms and threw it on Xiaotian. He sent him away.
Oda Saburo took the money and bowed and ran away excitedly. After he left, another man in a kimono ran over. Zhang Shi had known him for a long time and said, "Is the person he is looking for reliable?"
"I don't know this this time," said the visitor. "I am a samurai who sang the Wave Festival. I guess I am poor enough, but I am older."
Zhang Shi shook his head, "It's not good to be too old and he can sing the Wave Festival. Such a low-key thing does not match the identity of a warrior. You have to look for it again."
The visitor frowned and was thinking about this matter. He had been struggling for many days, and it was not feasible to find anyone. He suddenly said, "Among the international student members in Tokyo, someone from Tokuzo Komai, who claimed to be a descendant of Zhu Ming. He said that he still hated him so much that he hoped to contribute to the revolution. If we can find him..."
"Fake!" Zhang Shi asserted.
"Fake?"
"If I hate the Qing Dynasty so much, I must have gone to China to find thieves. How could I fool the international students here and say that they are descendants of Zhu Ming, and I must have us take the bait."
"oh……"
"We'd better rely on Sun Shifu from Osaka." Zhang Shi was tired of finding someone like this. I really don't know which bastard came up with it. This was just a needle in a haystack. He thought he wanted to find another way.
Yu Zixun met Sun Shifu's family in Osaka as early as the previous year. At that time, he was responsible for all the entertainments in Osaka. He was a big stock dealer here, and now he is an agent of Tianzi in Osaka.
"It's really rare for Mr. Yu to come to Osaka once," Sun Shifu said to Yu Zixun with a cup of tea after the meal. He was from Zhejiang and had been doing business in Osaka for a long time.
"Haha. Mr. Sun is so polite." Yu Zixun smiled, "How is the sales recently?"
Hearing Yu Zixun preached sales, Sun Shifu shook his head and sighed: "The end of Japan and Russia this year, I don't know how many times the import tariffs on China have been raised. Alas. If you hadn't mentioned me and made some money in the stock market, I would have been unable to survive this year."
"Oh. Mr. Sun is not that serious, right?" Yu Zixun said.
"You don't know if you are not in Osaka. Now that the Japanese have won Russia, they don't take China seriously. The shop is just a small worker who pulls carts and delivers goods. They yell at the price to raise prices. Whenever there is anything wrong with it, they will know to call the police. They really treat us as third-class citizens." Sun Shifu said as he shook his head. He has been in Japan for many years. It's okay before the Sino-Japanese War, and there is no trouble. He still feels that he is still a foreigner, but the store was snatched back during the Sino-Japanese War, and no one paid attention to it. After the war, the Shimonoseki Treaty was signed, and he and other overseas Chinese were second-class people. Now, they have been lowered and become third-class people.
Yu Zixun looked at him sighing and kept measuring the risks of asking for help in his heart. Although he had completely quit all the jobs of Tianzi, no matter what, the exposure was still bad. Should he say it or not? Yu Zixun hesitated...
Chapter completed!
