The mortar room of the Shanghai Patrol Police Bureau has changed its past distantness. Mayor Fei Yugui, Cheng Ziqing, the Shanghai Branch of the Security Bureau, and Xie Yuan, the General Officer of the Shanghai Patrol Police Bureau, these people and their entourage waited outside the mortar room. At around 5 a.m., the body of the coroner was over and the autopsy report was handed over.

After seeing it, Xie Yuan handed it to Fei Yugui, but Fei Yugui didn't answer. He recalled Tao Chengzhang's voice and smile in the afternoon. Unexpectedly, a few hours later, the living people turned into a cold body. Fei Yugui did not read the autopsy report, so Xie Yuan handed it to Cheng Ziqing, the security bureau. Cheng Ziqing turned it over and asked, "Has the trial been made there? Should I hand it over to me?"

"There is nothing to be tried." Xie Yuan shook his head, "The murderer was caught by a disabled soldier who runs a grocery store in the train square on the spot. When he was arrested, the weapon was next to him. The bullet and ballistic test was completely consistent, and the gunpowder residue test was normal. There were also many witnesses who proved that he fired the gun. After investigation, the background of this person was very simple. He was the son of a landlord in a certain place in Sichuan. His father was arrested for resisting land reform. He wandered around Shanghai with some silver..."

Xie Yuan couldn't continue to talk about this. This was not a conspiracy, but a revenge by the hostile elements of the land reform. During the day, Tao Chengzhang had questioned the results of the Dali Temple in front of many people, so he was followed by this kid. The government departments and the Ministry of Agriculture and Land Studies had little interest in the outside world, and Tao Chengzhang was used to being alone and had only two secretaries with him. The crime was in a crowded train station, and the two secretaries could not protect them well.

"It's really a damn hit!" Although Xie Yuan didn't say the following words, Fei Yugui knew the whole story completely, and he was very unwilling to accept it. As a revolutionary veteran and Minister of Agriculture, Tao Chengzhang was beaten to death by a young man who was still fucked. He thought it was wronged. "I don't believe it. Before he took action, no one would encourage him? Have you investigated those around him? Catch a few people to examine it."

"Sir, if there is no conclusive evidence, the Inspectorate will not issue an arrest warrant." Xie Yuan said. "If it is detention, it will only take a few days. Those landlords are as cunning as foxes and have lawyers, so they can't ask anything."

"Go to the fucking inspector!" Fei Yugui threw away the empty cigarette box in his hand vigorously. He has been upset about the case for a while. He lost the lawsuit today and was in a bad mood. What was worse was that a good comrade died in vain, which made him unable to suppress the hostility in his heart and scold anyone he said.

"Why did the Inspectorate provoke you?" A voice sounded at the other end of the corridor, waiting for people to get closer. Several people saw it was Xu Xilin, the leader of the Inspectorate, and Chen Ying, the Shanghai Inspectorate.

Xu Xilin's official title is only half a level lower than that of the Tingwei, from the first rank, and the highest among the few people is Fei Yugui, the third rank. As soon as he arrived, everyone stood up and saluted. Xu Xilin only took half of the time and helped Fei Yugui, who was the leader, up with his arms and said, "It's all comrades. Huanqing actually left like this, and I feel uncomfortable. If the case is really simple, then just do it simply. If you have to involve some people you shouldn't be held, you have a good attitude towards Brother Huanqing. You will be uneasy in the nine springs."

Not everyone knows Xu Xilin's undercover identity, including some people within the Fuxing Society. Now, hearing that he speaks like this, everyone has a good impression of him. Fei Yugui said: "But Huanqing only said to the landlord in the afternoon that he wanted a revolution, but was killed in the evening. Isn't there any instigation from the Constitutional Protection Party?"

"But can you provide evidence?" Xu Xilin glanced at the sign at the door of the mortar room, and felt very sad. The revolutionary comrades who had been revolutionary for many years left quietly.

"Now is not the time to talk about evidence." Fei Yugui shouted excitedly, "This is simply a conspiracy of the Constitutional Protection Party. They want to scare us so that we dare not take action. If we really don't move, what else can we do in the future? Whose world is this world? Is it from the Revival Society or the Constitutional Protection Party?!"

Fei Yugui's eyes suddenly became wet as he spoke. He remembered those comrades who sacrificed for the revolution and soldiers who died in battle against the great powers. Without them, there would be no China today! But now those bullshit judges and bullshit landlords, what power do they have to judge the heroes? What reason do they have to stand in the position of the plaintiff? Could it be that the country they created? They are just a pile of parasites and a pile of old filth. If these people are not removed, the country will never be clean.

"The revolution has passed, and now there is only reform! What is reform? That is to transform everything in this country under the law. Whether we want to or not, this is the way we want to go." Xu Xilin said. After he said that he saw that Fei Yugui was still dissatisfied with his strength and was worried that he would do something extraordinary, so he had to add, "The Prime Minister will not agree to carry out a revolution again."

"I won't agree to another revolution." Another voice sounded from the corridor. Fei Yugui didn't know much, but Xu Xilin knew that he was Xu Guantian, president of the National Farmers Association, and the eighth person in the Supreme Committee of the Revival Association.

"Guantian, why are you here?" He was just there in Shanghai, but he didn't expect him to be there too. Xu Xilin stood up and bowed to him.

"I heard the news in Shandong and rushed over overnight. Huanqing has a high prestige among farmers. I am afraid something will happen." Xu Guantian said, and subconsciously stroked his face. He came from Shandong by plane. Not to mention the danger, his face hurts because of the wind. "How is the case now? Is it clear that the investigation? It's time to unify the external caliber, otherwise..."

Unifying the external caliber is the government's business. Xu Xilin smiled when he heard this, turned around and bowed to everyone with Chen Ying, and looked at the closed door of the mortar room again, but he left without going in.

Tao Chengzhang's obituary was published by the China Times in the afternoon. When he saw the full page of the narrative about Tao Chengzhang, the world understood the reason why he didn't see the China Times this morning because he died. In the Concession Protection Party Party, Lin Sen took the China Times without reading the life introduction of Tao Chengzhang on the front page, but pointed to the second page of the assassin and said: "This Wang Dongyan is really good. The whole family killed Tao Chengzhang. Why didn't he kill Yang Jingcheng?"

"Changren..." Lin Changmin saw this fellow villager talking, and immediately stopped him. Instead, Xu Fosu praised: "Changren, your revolutionary party has no other plan to give Yang Jingcheng..."

"Of course the revolutionary party has plans." Lin Sen said proudly, "But why the party does not cooperate. But now it seems that the reaction of this revival association is too calm. Could it be that they have become courageless young people after they have settled into the world."

Lin Sen was proud. The Constitutional Protection Party members were also quite proud. The case was won in the first trial at Dali Temple in Shanghai. The Dali Temple in various prefectures across the country will also follow this precedent and will also sentence the local government government offices and land reform offices to lose the case. Using this as capital, the Constitutional Protection Party will be able to enter the Notice Academy after two years.

"Why didn't you see Ren Gong?" Although Lin Sen was dissatisfied with the pride of the Constitutional Protection Party and others, these people were lucky and won the lawsuit, which forced him to sigh at the injustice of the world.

"Mr. Ren is gone..." Lin Changmin said a few words before being interrupted by Xu Fosu. He said, "Mr. Ren is going to find out the news everywhere. See what chess will be next for this revival."

Lin Sen just didn't believe it, but he was just a contact person in the Constitutional Protection Party, so it was difficult to continue asking for information. In fact, Liang Qichao did go out to inquire about the news, but this time the place he went to was relatively secret, which was Xiyin Hall on Nanyang Road.

"Mr. Liang, I highly appreciate the just behavior of the Constitutional Protection Party in safeguarding its legitimate rights and interests. I believe that after this victory, your Party will also win in other cities in China. For a country that has been around for more than two thousand years, this behavior is not only progressive but also civilized. Through it, more people will understand the true meaning of freedom and democracy."

In the study of Xiyintang, the English name is s.k.tsao, and the Chinese name is translated as Cao Xuegeng, is talking freely. He is the director-general of the Shanghai YMCA. Perhaps because there are many people in the constitution-protecting Party who have joined Christianity, he is very concerned about the actions of the constitution-protecting Party. Sitting next to Cao Xuegeng is Xie Honglai, a national committee member of the Christian YMCA. He made a decision to buy Yang Rui's first manuscript at the Commercial Press thirteen years ago, creating a great legend.

American Cao Xuegeng said that Xie Honglai was responsible for the translation. In addition to Tang Hualong, Liang Qichao and his follower Tang Juedun, the audience also had Zhao Fengchang, the owner of Xiyin Hall, as well as Tang Shouqian, Tang Shaoyi and Zhang Jian, who were obviously sitting in the corner of the wall with the window on his back. Although there were not many of these people, the influence represented a great influence. Especially Tang Shaoyi, behind him were the Beiyang forces and the northern gentry. The biggest difference from other forces is that the 11th Army was the old Beiyang. With a gun on his hand, his waist would naturally be straighter.

"Pastor Cao, although the trial was won yesterday, Tao Chengzhang, the Minister of the Ministry of Agriculture, was assassinated at the Shanghai Railway Station. The person who assassinated him was the son of a gentleman. His father was a kind gentleman in Sichuan, but he was treated unfairly because of land reform. Not only was his property confiscated, but he was also sentenced to death." Liang Qichao introduced the situation of yesterday's assassination and did not introduce why he knew so much.

"Tao Chengzhang was the person who proposed the land reform bill. He had a very fierce attitude towards rural gentlemen. He believed that China needed another revolution, that is, to kill all the gentlemen in the past, then encroach on their property, and distribute their land to the peasants. Moreover, he was one of the founders of the Revival Society. The reason why the revolution in Zhejiang was launched so early was very related to him. Now that he is dead, we are very worried that the fierce elements of the Revival Society will launch another revolution as he said..."

"No! No!" Cao Xuegeng shook his head and said no after hearing Xie Honglai's translation. "If the government really does this, then he will be condemned by the entire civilized world! I believe that US President Mr. Wilson will also protest against this."

"Pastor Cao, we need the support of the US government now," Tang Shaoyi, who had discussed this issue with Liang Qichao and others, immediately said that he was a young child studying in the United States and had a pure American English. Cao Xuegeng had a good impression of him.

"It's true." Tang Shouqian from Zhejiang also said, "I heard that Yang Jingcheng's concubine changed drastically after his death. He was already fierce and valued Tao Huanqing very much. If he really took the risk, the consequences would be unimaginable."

"Okay, I think...I think I will find a way to let him meet you when President Wilson's envoy, Mr. Klein, came to China and passed by Shanghai. He may be able to advise the Revival Society government in the name of the President that the Revival Society government is not as extreme as the North Korean government..." Speaking of this, Cao Xuegeng stopped and drew a cross on his chest, silently recited God, and then said: "Gentlemen, there is an old saying in China that it is said that if you are good, land reform is inevitable with Yang's will. However, the pursuit of freedom and democracy is long-term and tortuous. If the Revival Society government really does do like the North Korean government, it will not be very beneficial to the growth of the Constitutional Protection Party."

After saying his last advice, Cao Xuegeng and Xie Honglai wanted to say goodbye to the master. As soon as he left, Tang Juedun asked: "What does this foreigner mean? We want to advise..."

"Pastor Cao means that we recommend that we enter the Juyi Academy first, and then fight against the Revival." Tang Shaoyi commented on Cao Xuegeng's last words. He studied in the United States for a long time and consciously knew more about the United States than everyone else, but the tone of this sentence was very strange, as if he himself disagreed with it.

"I think it's because Americans don't have the capital to place bets." Tang Hualong, the third-person of the Constitutional Protection Party, said. "It's okay to scream a few times and sharpen your mouth, but if you want to use a knife and a gun, the Americans can't help us." After reading another explanation, Tang Hualong asked Tang Shaoyi again, "Brother Shaochuan. These Beiyang towns, also known as the 11th Army, can they issue the two things yesterday? There is no need to say this telegram too clearly. Just be vague and show that harmony is the most important thing."

"Power on?" Tang Shaoyi's eyes widened. He looked at the people who were puzzled and smiled: "Do you think it's the people from Beiyang who are in the 11th Army that have the final say?"

"When Beijing and Tianjin were discussing peace, did the Fuxing Association promise to reorganize the original troops, and the officers of all sizes did not dismantle and were in their original positions?" Tang Hualong was curious about the question, and the others were also staring at Tang Shaoyi. I hope to know the truth.

"When the towns in Beiyang were adapted, they said they would not move officers, but they did not speak the soldiers. As soon as the military supervisor of the Fuxing Society went, the soldiers of each team were coaxed by them with nice words. If Duan Zhiquan had power today, he would have good fruit tomorrow; Besides, the 11th Army is now assisting land reform in Shaanxi, Gansu and Sichuan, and one by one is dispersed, even if someone wants to do something, it is impossible for someone to do something." Tang Shaoyi said about the situation in Beiyang and was very angry. "The Fuxing Society seems to be trustworthy, but because Yang Jingcheng has many methods and is skillful. If he is too skilled, he will definitely use a knife."

"What should Brother Shaochuan think?" Everyone felt cold in their hearts when Tang Shaoyi said that, Tang Hualong asked quickly.

"What else can I do? If the Fuxing will really start a massacre, I can only raise the flag to protect the constitution." Tang Shaoyi said.

"But you didn't say..." Tang Hualong was puzzled. He just said that the Beiyang soldiers could not control it. Now he said he wanted to rebel, which was inexplicable.

Tang Hualong asked, but Tang Shaoyi did not answer. He waited for the landlord Zhao Fengchang to cough and ask, and then he reluctantly replied: "If we make a rash move, then the name will be at the Fuxing Society. If the Fuxing Society searches for gentry from all over the country and cuts off the law, then the righteousness will be in our hands. The many officers and soldiers of the 11th Army can only have food and clothing, and their families are properly placed, and they will still choose to raise the constitution to protect the constitution on the side of Daxing."

"Yunnan has been unification since its founding. If the incident really happens, can it raise the flag to protect the constitution?" Tang Shaoyi said that, Beiyang was thinking about Yunnan again. After he finished speaking, several people looked at Liang Qichao who was silent.

"Yang Jingcheng will not take risks." Surprisingly, Liang Qichao did not mention the matter of raising the flag to protect the constitution, but concluded that there was no need to raise the flag.

"How is this possible?" Tang Hualong asked. After asking, he seemed to be looking for support. His eyes swept across the faces of Zhang Jian and Zhao Fengchang, but they were not recognized.

"Cough..." Zhang Jian, the former Minister of Commerce, was dull for a while and finally said: "As long as the landlord does not bite the land price of twenty taels, things can be resolved peacefully in the end. Now the imperial court is doing arms shipping transactions, and I really don't know how much money I have made. The previous plan was to make 2 billion taels. The 2 billion taels plus ten years of installment payments from tenants is already 4 billion taels. If the land price can be made halfway, then it should be content."

Things within the government are not known to Liang Qichao and others. Now, when they heard that arms transactions can actually make 2 billion taels, these people were shocked and said, "Can they really make so much money?"

"Well." Zhang Jian nodded, "No matter what Yang Jingcheng is, his judgment on the international situation is no better than that in the world. In the early years of his founding, he kept thinking about building the arms industry and developing shipyards. Now it seems that he is indeed foresighted. You guys, if you want to fight for more rights and interests for the landlords, I support it, but if you just raise the flag and rebel, then I think this matter should be forgotten. Whether it is Yunnan or Beiyang, if you don't get the support of foreigners, you won't be wiped out in a year.

What we should do the most is to fight against him within the scope that Yang Jingcheng allows. After all, it is okay to enter the Academy of Skeletons, but if we say that we want to protect the constitutional party to rule, then we should save ourselves this. If we don’t talk about anything else, just with the things set by the current Constitution and the Election Law, other parties will not be able to win.”

Everyone doesn't like to listen to Zhang Jian's statement. He fought hard, but in the end he was just a deserted congressman. What's the point? Liang Qichao immediately asked: "What if our party and the Kuomintang merge, is it possible to rule?"

"The Revival Society has many electorals and strict organization. Now it is proposed to revitalize agriculture. Can Ren Gong be confident that he can attract more people than the Revival Society?" Zhang Jian actually agreed with the Kuomintang's position of revitalizing industry and did not agree with landlords such as the Constitutional Protection Party. As for Liang Qichao, this person created public opinion, turning the world upside down is a good way, but if you want to talk about governing the country, then your ability is really bad.

"The Constitutional Protection Party also has many forces in the countryside. When it comes to voting, the influence of ancestral sects in various places is quite large. If the citizens in the city are added, even if they cannot compete with the Fuxing Society, they will not be much inferior." Liang Qichao said.

Liang Qichao's words were firm, but he still couldn't say what would happen if he could win the Fuxing Society. Zhang Jian did not respond after hearing this. Instead, Zhao Fengchang smiled at everyone like a peacemaker and said, "Everyone, the matter of winning the central government is long, so why should we hurry up for a while? It is not impossible to cooperate with the Kuomintang. But for the sake of the current plan, we should still stabilize the Fuxing Society so that it will not take risks. When the second trial wins, it will be the affairs of the Prime Minister's Office and the Tingwei Mansion. At that time, we will support Wu Tingfang and Lord Wu of the Tingwei Mansion. The most important thing is the few months from now to the trial of the second trial."

Zhao Fengchang, the peacemaker, made a point. Liang Qichao asked Tang Juedun beside him, "Do you know who is the presiding judge of Dali Temple in Jiangsu?"

"This..." Tang Jueton couldn't say that the Tingwei Mansion might be transferred to the judge at that time, so he had to say, "The current minister of Dali Temple is Zhang Yipeng. This person..." He glanced at Tang Shaoyi and said, "It is the younger brother of Zhang Yilin, aide of Lord Yuan Gongbao. However, I don't know if Lord Wu will transfer people before the trial begins."

"Who can I change someone?" Liang Qichao said with a rare smile. "As long as he is a judge with some qualifications, who is not from a gentry? Which family does not have a few acres of land? If we really have to wait until the day of the second trial, we will wait and see the show."

The Xiyin Hall discussion ended until evening. In the next few days, there was no abnormal movement in the Prime Minister's Office, and the peasant riots speculated by the newspaper did not happen. However, when Tao Chengzhang in the capital held a state funeral more than a month later, there were countless farmers entering the capital, which filled the entire capital inside and outside. However, these people were very orderly and there was no sign of causing trouble at all.

At this time, the Shanghai Municipal Government and the Land Reform Office expressed dissatisfaction with the first-instance judgment and submitted an appeal to the Shanghai Dali Temple on the last day of the prescribed appeal period. However, the case was no longer responsible for the case according to the procedures, but the case was taken over by the higher level of the Shanghai Dali Temple, Jiangsu Province Dali Temple. In this way, the case will not be heard in four months, that is, at the end of the year, October.

After the appeal in Shanghai, Yin'an Palace not only was everything normal, but it was even a little calmer than before. But the more this happened, the more uneasy Liang Qichao and others became. There were many other troops, at least, still stationed in various counties and counties, or were on their necks, and they didn't know when they would be cut down.

For this reason, Liang Qichao found someone to write an article in the newspaper to criticize the government for not withdrawing troops and not regaining the Western Regions, which was a waste of money. However, such articles were discussed and discussed in newspapers. The newspaper industry had no choice but to use the Taiwei Mansion. Later, a reporter actually wanted to break into the Taiwei Mansion and Lieutenant General Bei Shou and Lieutenant General Bei Shou and the army questioned the matter on the spot. After the reporter was arrested, the newspaper industry carried out great support as usual, but the military court did not even have a public trial. The reporter was eventually sentenced to five years in prison for trespassing into the military forbidden area.

The public opinion method was not good. At the suggestion of the lawyer, everyone initiated a taxpayer lawsuit, suing the Taiweifu for abuse of military expenditure on the grounds that the state army did not go to the Western Regions to expel Russians but stayed in the mainland. Since it was a taxpayer, it had the right to supervise the use of each cent of tax. Seeing the abuse of public funds, the taxpayer could become a plaintiff with a tax certificate and sue the person who abused the tax. This is the right clearly granted to each taxpayer in the Greater China Taxpayer Rights Law. However, all tax-related lawsuits are responsible to the Tax Court of the National Taxation Bureau. Although the case was heard in court, the final result was that the plaintiff lost the lawsuit.
Chapter completed!
