The opening of the expo, the planes destroyed locusts, and the prime minister was assassinated, were three major events in September. The first two were happy events, but the last one involved more than 50 students because it was an assassination case. Although the Shanghai Inspectorate will file targeted prosecutions against the persons involved in the case in accordance with normal judicial procedures and obtained evidence after trial, the public opinion believes that arresting so many people would cause harm to innocent people. In addition, some people deliberately contributed to the fire, but the matter was becoming more and more troubled.

Assassins come to the scene with the will of dying. They just want to try their own crimes, but they just poured beans into bamboo tubes. The assassins denied that they knew them, and they also participated in the assassination. However, the security bureau's interrogation had unique secret skills. After one night, two students admitted that everyone was encouraged to surround them before they came forward. But this was just a marginal staff. They did not have any evidence to prove that the Huiming Academy participated in the assassination. In the next day, the interrogators could only thoroughly search the Huiming Academy and arrest other personnel from the Huiming Academy on the next day.

The case is getting bigger and bigger, and more people are being arrested. After experiencing the initial panic, Tongji University School adjusted the school regulations to prohibit students from attending the school, and the work-study mutual aid students in Shanghai were completely in chaos. Under semi-sponsive and semi-mobilized, hundreds of students went to the Shanghai Patrol Police Station to protest with banners and demanded that the arrested students be released. The students were quite excited. When the protest was invalid, they suddenly rushed into the police station after seeing the petition invalid, so the matter became tragic. Two students were shot dead in chaos.

The emergency in Shanghai reached Yang Rui's ears, and after several days after he received a telegram from the Shanghai bloody incident, Yang Rui couldn't help but think of the bloody incident caused by Wang Jitong and others in Shanghai a few years ago. He didn't even read it. He immediately slapped the telegram on the table and said angrily: "The Shanghai Police Station cannot subdue hundreds of students. Do you still have to shoot?!"

"Prime Minister, according to the memories of the parties involved, the police did not want to shoot, but suddenly heard two gunshots in the crowd. Some patrolmen fell to the ground and they fired the gun." Yang Rui did not read the telegram, and Li Zilong only dictated the content of the telegram. "The Security Bureau believes that this is likely caused by the revolutionary party's intention to create a bloody crime. The students of the Huiming Academy originally believed in anarchism. They believed that the police station arrested people as intentional to avenge private revenge, otherwise those students would have been released long ago."

During the demonstration, deliberately shooting and provoking trouble was a common trick by the revolutionary party. When Yang Rui heard this, he immediately understood that things in Shanghai were not that simple. He asked: "What about those students now?"

"I ran away, but more of them were controlled. The Security Bureau and the Inspectorate have now intervened in the investigation." Li Zilong said.

"What's the use? If someone really fires a shot on purpose, he will definitely run away long ago." Yang Rui heard that the students were not all caught, and he just felt that things were probably tricky.

"This matter will be reported tomorrow," Yang Rui stood up and felt very sleepy. He walked a few steps in the room and said, "Call Wang Xiaolin. Public opinion must be controlled in this matter."

"I understand. Prime Minister." Li Zilong said, but before he turned around, he thought of another thing but did not report it, and said, "There is another thing. Now there are students from Huiming Academy confessions. Wu Jingheng once took one of the murderers to Huiming Academy. He asked the student Prime Minister Liu Sifu to help, saying that he wanted him to help take some students to Tongji University to listen..."

"Wu Zhihui, this old dog!" Thinking of the day when he was still helping Wang Zhaoming and others to say good things. Unexpectedly, he was also involved. Yang Rui was immediately angry, "Where is he now?"

"After obtaining the evidence yesterday, the police station informed the Ministry of Industry. Now he must have been arrested. This is the matter in the morning." Li Zilong said...

"No matter in the morning and evening, all those who come to plead for mercy will be blocked by me." Yang Rui was extremely angry, and then gritted his teeth and said, "I want to see if I can do it, how many people will jump out and make trouble!"

As soon as Yang Rui finished speaking, the second-class secretary outside knocked on the door and told him through the door: "Report to the Prime Minister, Master Cai from the School Department arrived at the reception room and said he wanted to seek emergency official visits."

When Yang Rui talked about the academic department outside, his eyes turned cold. He really said that Cao Cao was here, so he said, "Please come here, I want to see what he has to do with official duties."

When Yang Rui ordered Cai Yuanpei to be invited in, Cai Yuanpei was waiting anxiously outside the living room. He also received a telegram from Zhang Yuanji from Shanghai that Wu Zhihui was arrested and imprisoned, so he came to find Yang Rui urgently. Although Wu Zhihui is very close to Sun Wen Tongmenghui and has a lot of conflicts with Uncle Mei, he is a former colleague after all, and this person has never been involved in political affairs. It is absolutely impossible for him to plan and participate in the assassination. There must be some misunderstandings in this.

Cai Yuanpei was sitting in the flower hall without any worries, but just wandered like an ant carrying his hands on his back. Suddenly, he heard Yang Rui summoning him, so he hurried to the inner hall. When he arrived at Yang Rui's office, he was blocked by Yang Rui before he could speak: "Zimin, you are here. What are the urgent official duties here? Are you facing any problems with the specific plan of the education popularization case?"

Yang Rui talked about the education popularization case. Cai Yuanpei didn't know that he did this on purpose, so he immediately stamped his feet and said, "It's been done, oh! When is it now? I ask you, how could Wu Zhihui be involved in the assassination case? Didn't he catch the wrong person?"

"Wu Zhihui?" Yang Rui was stunned for a moment, pretending to think, and after a while, he said: "It seems that this is the case. Why, Jimin is not here for official business, but for private affairs?"

"What are these and what!" Cai Yuanpei patted his thighs: "Zhihui was still a colleague of the past. We used to have dinner on the same stove, so why is this today!"

"Wu Zhihui is involved in the assassination case, so he will naturally be arrested." Yang Rui looked at him and sneered: "Now it depends on whether the matter is true. If it is true, the Inspectorate will file a lawsuit. Just judge the judgment as it should. Why do you have to worry about it?"

"This!" Cai Yuanpei thought it was just a matter of arresting people, but he didn't expect it to involve an appeal and sentence. He calmed down and said, "It turns out that the assassin has been arrested. Why bother to involve irrelevant people? Please forgive me if you have to forgive me!"

"Jiemin, you should go to Tingwei Mansion, you shouldn't come here." Yang Rui said seriously: "You know my rules. You recognize the law but not the people. In my dictionary, there is no bullshit benevolence, righteousness and morality. If you want to forgive others, you will forgive others. Breaking the law means breaking the law, and being guilty is guilty. Is it because he used to eat with us at the same stove and teach in a school, and he can give me a favor without the law? If I don't say that I don't have such an idea, even if I have it, there is nothing I can do. This matter is managed by the Tingwei Mansion and has no relationship with the Prime Minister's Office. Jiemin demands affection and wants to catch people, and asks to go to Tingwei Mansion!"

Cai Yuanpei was speechless when Yang Rui spoke on the phone. In fact, he is a person. No matter who he is, as long as he has some knowledge, or is promoted to be a master, and has not done anything that violates morality, he will be saved in times of difficulty, and ask for mercy in collaboration, not to mention that his former colleague Wu Zhihui is now in prison. "It turns out, aren't you afraid that others will say you are cold-blooded and ruthless?"

"I am proud of being cold-blooded and ruthless, and take it as my life goal! Whoever says that, I will be happy for several days to sleep." Cai Yuanpei's questioning made Yang Rui very angry. His tone suddenly became fierce: "If you don't agree, come and assassinate me, or kick me off the stage. I really like someone fighting with me!"

"You!" Looking at Yang Rui's ferocious expression, Cai Yuanpei was startled. He turned around in place, stamped his feet a few more times and left angrily. He didn't expect that as soon as he returned to the school department, the telegram from Shanghai came again. This time it was no longer Wu Zhihui's business, but that the students in Shanghai had a conflict with the police station. Two students were shot and died, and many students were injured.

Students are Cai Yuanpei's lifeblood. He didn't dare to think about how those students were beaten and tortured by the patrol police. His eyes were red. Cai Yuanpei's face became ferocious. He ran out of the yamen again as if he was running. He wanted to go to the Prime Minister's Mansion again when he got into the carriage, but when he thought of the man who was proud of being cold-blooded and ruthless, he had to let the coachman turn to the Tingwei Mansion.

With the political structure of Greater China, the above is the puppet emperor, and the following are the three governments of Taiwei, Prime Minister, Tingwei, Army, Political and Law, but in fact, the position of Taiwei is the Prime Minister, that is, the Prime Minister, which is obviously different from the independence of command of Germany and Japan. But paradoxically, the constitution does not explicitly stipulate that the two positions of Taiwei and Prime Minister must be held by the same person. It is only within the Revival Society that the Chairman of the Military Committee of the Revival Society shall be held by the President, but there is no explicit note here: What is the relationship between the Military Committee of the Revival Society and the General Office of the Revival Society?

In fact, if you think about it carefully, this intentional and unclear setting is for Yang Ruiwan to still be able to control the army when he got off the Taiwan Strait. However, unlike trying hard to control the army, there is only the only condition for the Supreme ** official to be assessed every ten years. In addition, the Inspectorate has always been in the hands of the Fuxing Society. Others such as Dali Temple, including the functions of the Ministry of Justice, are not within the sphere of influence of the Fuxing Society. When the country was first founded, the Shen Family was appointed as the Tingwei. Shen Family passed away in the middle of this year, and Wu Tingfang, who had been practicing the law with Shen Family.

Tingwei was an old man, and the judges and chief officials in Tingwei's mansion were also legal talents left over from the Qing Dynasty and other law students without party backgrounds. Because the new dynasty allowed officials from the previous dynasty to not wear the official uniforms of this dynasty to avoid becoming traitors, many people in Tingwei's mansion had linen and white shirts. Although the clothes were nostalgic, the remaining ministers in the previous dynasty were devoted to the law. Wu Tingfang personally took the trial in the Fu Wei case, examining the evidence of his guilt, and finally sentenced to death according to the law, which caused a huge uproar in the court and the people, which made people who had prejudices before shut up. However, in Yang Rui's view, the Shen Family Ben and the others had an old relationship, but they still admired the law in their hearts. After all, the Qing Dynasty was destroyed, and the only one who could become their spiritual pillar was the only judicial independence, so he was very relieved of them.

The school is at Donghuamen, and the Tingwei Mansion is in the second row of the official office on the west side of Tianjie. On the carriage, Cai Yuanpei thought of the reason why he was relieved to those Qing dynasties when Yang Rui was in a meeting before, and his brows frowned again. What kind of colleagues should be used to convince those old Qing dynasties? It was simply a matter of seeking death. They were eager to die the revolutionary party that had all died earlier.

The carriage arrived at the Tingwei Mansion soon. When the bailiff at the door repeated the question of whom the Lord was looking for, Cai Yuanpei suddenly thought of two people and said, "I'll look for Lord Zhang Xing, Yan Zhang, or Lord Wang Liangtao..."

"Mr. Wang is out for business, only Lord Zhang is there. Do you want to find Lord Zhang?" The bailiff returned to the guard room and probably made a few calls and reported the news.

"Okay, okay! I'll look for Lord Zhang..." Cai Yuanpei nodded and was about to go in as he said.

"Sir, please get out of the car and register. This is the rule." The bailiff said, and he only waited for him to finish writing the registration book and gave him a sign and put the carriage in.

Cai Yuanpei had shown his official cards before. He didn't expect that he would get off the car and register in person, so he muttered about this and waited until the coachman told him through the front window that he had arrived at the place before he took care of the official robe and black hat and got off the car openly.

After receiving a call from the bailiff in the guard room, Zhang Shizhao had been waiting downstairs. When he saw Cai Yuanpei with a worried look on his face, he asked with concern: "Brother Jimin, what happened? Why are you here?"

"Hey!" Cai Yuanpei sighed, looked at the many people coming and going around, and said, "Is there any place to talk to? I have something to do and I want to talk to you. It's very important."

"Go to my office." Zhang Shizhao took Cai Yuanpei upstairs. Although the Tingwei Mansion had not much funding, it was sufficient. Now this building was newly built last year. As the editor-in-chief of the Legal Daily, he still has a huge office.

The two went up to the second floor and just sat down Cai Yuanpei and said, "Yes, I came for the assassination in Shanghai. Now not only Brother Zhihui was arrested by the patrol police. Those students who went to the patrol police station to petition were also shot and killed and injured by them. You said! You said! This is a matter! This is different from the Qing Dynasty. Isn't this taking human life into consideration?"

"Ah! Shooting the student to death?" Zhang Shizhao was startled. As the editor-in-chief of the Legal Daily, he was also very informative. He didn't expect that in addition to the assassination case in Shanghai, such a thing happened. He looked at the excited Cai Yuanpei and comforted him: "Brother Jimin, don't worry, I'll find out what happened. Wait for me for a while."

Zhang Shizhao wanted to leave, but Cai Yuanpei wanted to stop him, but he thought that he was going to inquire about the news, so he couldn't help but put down his hand. He just waited anxiously for a while before seeing Zhang Shizhao walking in with an unpleasant expression. He sat down and said, "It's true that this is the case. The Shanghai Inspectorate and the Security Bureau have intervened. I think there will be definite news in the next few days."

"How many days next to tomorrow? Why do you want the days next to tomorrow?" Cai Yuanpei was very angry when he heard Zhang Shizhao's words. "Now hundreds of students have been arrested by the police station, and I am afraid that a few more will die in the next few days!"

"Brother Jimin, the Inspectorate has intervened now, which means that all the actions of the police station must be carried out under the supervision of the inspector. What else can happen? Our country's judiciary is independent, and even if it wants to interfere, it cannot be interfered." Zhang Shizhao said.

"The Inspectorate is independent? Xu Xilin, the President of the Inspectorate, is not a member of the Revival Society." Cai Yuanpei knows more than Zhang Shizhao and is not optimistic about judicial independence: "Now I just want to save those students, and Brother Zhihui, he is just a scholar, how could it be related to assassination? The patrol officers below must have seen that the Prime Minister was assassinated and wanted to arrest more people to please Shangguan. This kind of trick has been done since ancient times. Be strict, you have to help release those people."

"This... Brother Jimin, I am just a newspaper runner, how can I release someone?" Cai Yuanpei's request made Zhang Shizhao very embarrassed. He knew about Wu Zhihui. He lived in the concession. If the patrol officer had no conclusive evidence, he would never take him. But he was also a member of the Patriotic Society at that time. He understood why Cai Yuanpei came to save people, so he really didn't know how to say these truths.

Zhang Shizhao said he could not save him. Cai Yuanpei said: "Be strict, don't forget the patriotic school. Brother Zhihui, I know his character, and those students. Think about the previous Nanyang Public School. If the students were not forced by the teacher, who would drop out of school? This is simply the patrol officer below forcing the people to rebel and taking human life away!"

Cai Yuanpei's words were heavier than each other, and Zhang Shizhao felt uncomfortable, but when he thought of the Patriotic Society, his heart softened and said, "Brother Jimin, there is conclusive evidence for Wu Zhihui's arrest. He took the assassins to Huiming Society and asked them to help the assassins get familiar with the school environment and various subjects. Regardless of whether he knew the purpose of the assassin, he concealed it from the aftermath and ran to find Jingcheng where he asked for a light sentence of the assassin, so he could not clear his relationship with the assassin.

There are also those students, I don’t know what’s going on when I shoot, but more than ten of the more than 50 students arrested on the night of the assassination were indeed involved or known about the assassination. There are also a few others who are suspected, but those people refuse to admit it. The patrol department originally wanted to release those students without evidence today, but this happened."

Cai Yuanpei only believed Zhang Yuanji's telegram before, but he didn't expect that there would be such a case. He was a little uneasy at first, but insisted: "Since the assassination has not succeeded, why should it be implicated so widely? No matter how much Zhihui is, a famous scholar in the academic world, and he really wants to be sentenced to prison, how can he deal with himself in the future? And those students, even if they participate in it, are still bewitched. How can they really tell the court?"

"Brother Jimin!" Zhang Shizhao saw that he was still obsessed with it, so he had to say: "In the assassination case, the guards of the Prime Minister's Office were killed and injured, and the one who died was killed by an assassin hidden among the students. If the Dali Temple or the Inspectorate did not do their duty, what would it mean? Then the Tingwei Mansion will be closed tomorrow. The reason why the judiciary is independent is to be able to enforce the law impartially and be selfless. The Tongmenghui had a crush on assassination in his early years. Now that he does not change his bad habits, he will be even more lawless in the future. A few days ago, the Tingwei Lord Wu Tingfang and Wu had a special meeting on this case, saying that this case must be sentenced severely and must not be tolerated."

Zhang Shizhao was sentenced severely, and Cai Yuanpei's coldness rose from the bottom of his heart, "Can you not be able to be kind to the outside world, just like... like that Fu Weikang is in good faith?"

"Difficult!" Zhang Shizhao made another judgment: "Will the Manchus be tolerated because of the old gentry and many old Manchus. Even if the Manchus want to restore the dynasty, everyone also feels that it is understandable that the dynasty will change, and the old dynasty will always come so many times. But what are the assassins in Shanghai for? Are they really for the democratic republic?"

Zhang Shizhao recalled the people of Tongmenghui, and then recalled Huang Xing, shook his head and sighed, "What is the Democratic Republic? It depends on whether Sun Wen is the president and Tongmenghui is in the world. If it is Sun Wen's president and Tongmenghui is in the world, it is a Democratic Republic. If it is not for him to be the president and Tongmenghui is in the world, it will definitely be a dictatorship. In the end, it is still inseparable from fighting for power and profit. The Chenghui agreed to pardon Manchus, but he will never agree to pardon the people of Tongmenghui."

"This is unfair." Cai Yuanpei shook his head, unable to agree with what Zhang Shizhao said. Revolution seemed extremely sacred to him. It is precisely because of this that he felt that Yang Rui's actions were too much. You should know that these people are revolutionary comrades.

"Brother Jimin, one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers. There are Sun Wuyang in this world, and Yang Wusun. To be fair, Yang is stronger than Sun. Now that Yang is in the world, Sun can only be abandoned." Zhang Shizhao said of this couple of enemies in the world today, and he was very moved. When he translated Miyazaki's thirty-three years of dreams of falling flowers, he felt that China must be Sun, but he didn't want to do it until now, but he avoided the ocean: "Oh, don't worry, justice is in the hearts of the people. Everything Mr. Sun did for the revolution will be known to the world one day."

After he finished speaking, he was still worried when Cai Yuanpei was still worried, so he had to say, "Mr. Wu attaches importance to the case in Shanghai and has sent people to Shanghai, and Wang Liangtao is among them. If he can do anything, he can only find him."

"Wang Liangtao went to Shanghai?" Cai Yuanpei suddenly felt that he had caught a straw. Wang Chonghui was originally a student of Nanyang Public School. He joined the independent army during the Boxer period and fled to Japan for failure. However, the following year, he was recommended by Zhang Yuanji to study in the United States and obtained a doctorate in law from Yale University. Since he went to Shanghai, he could just ask Zhang Yuanji to talk to him about it.

"Well. I'm gone, this is a big case. The people who went there were Xu Shiying and Yang Yinxing." Zhang Shizhao was not from Shanghai school and was not familiar with Wang Chonghui's past, but he still saw some clues from Cai Yuanpei's expression and said, "They were just going to inspect and did not participate in the trial."

"I understand." Cai Yuanpei just thought about sending a telegram to Zhang Yuanji earlier, and was absent-minded in his speech. He stood up and bowed, and then said goodbye hurriedly.
Chapter completed!
