The first chapter of the book of Ren is extremely

"When you decide to bless others, you have been blessed because your heart is filled with blessings; when you are willing to love, you have been loved because your heart is filled with love. Similarly, if you are harsh on others, you are harsh on yourself, and if you hate others, you hate yourself, because your heart has become like this. Jesus said, "Whatever you use is the measuring instrument you use to give yourself...

Some people think that after believing in God, they can wait for God to bless you. This is not the case. Believing in God means treating God as God to fear, praise, listen, and follow; they must use continuous reading of the Bible, pray, worship, and testimony to draw the power of grace; they must act according to God's word..."

Yu Zixun stood under the dome of the church and preached to the American farmers in the church. When he first came, everyone was surprised, but now he was used to a yellow pastor. Although this is a rural church, the more rural believers are, the more pious they are. When he finally said "Amen", the people in the church were echoing. At this moment, the hearts of everyone were connected to God.

In the United States for many years, Yu Zixun, who joined Calvinism, began to study religion, and then became an intern pastor, and was sent to this parish. As usual, after the preaching, he would go home and write down his experience today, but today, a guest came to visit.

"Mr. Zixun..." In the church where the church members exposed, a short man in a white suit stood up and spoke in Chinese. His voice echoed in this small wooden chapel that seemed empty.

Yu Zixun, who has been in the United States for many years, often hears Chinese, but it is rare for Chinese to be among the believers he preached. Yu Zixun looked over in surprise and suddenly pointed at the man and said in surprise: "Yixian..."

"Is it okay for Zixun?" Sun Wen walked straight to Yu Zixun inside the church. He was used to the Western Ceremony and stretched out his hand to shake hands with Yu Zixun.

The hands were tightly held together. Yu Zixun suddenly met an old friend and smiled brightly, with his expression a little unfit for his serious pastoral decoration. "Fortunately, where have Yixian been these years? Someone said you..."

"Yes, I have everything I say," Sun Wen subconsciously looked back, with an indescribable alertness in his eyes. "Many people hope I'm dead, but I'm still alive." After saying that, he looked at Yu Zixun's whole body again, and said in surprise: "I really didn't expect that Zixun could... actually do..."

"Are you a pastor?" Yu Zixun smiled, proud of the step he took. "Many times, even he himself can't predict the changes in people. How has Yixian been in the past few years?"

"I'm doing well. I'll go to bed when I'm full and eat when I wake up. As long as I don't read the newspaper or listen to the radio, the world is still good." Sun Wen couldn't tell whether he was smiling bitterly or awkwardly. "This time I went to the United States, and I heard that I was here, I came here to visit."

"Oh, is it the same with Yixian?" Yu Zixun didn't read the newspaper or listen to the radio. He was only immersed in the world of Jesus Christ.

"So what if it doesn't happen?" Sun Wen restrained his smile and looked up at the statue of Jesus in the sky of the church. "I am determined to kill the thief, and I can't help but return to heaven! China has been pulled too far by Yang Jingcheng. The people worship him like those who worship Qin Shihuang. Why don't they look at it? What is the difference between the so-called Great China and the autocratic dynasties of all dynasties? As long as this country mentions national treasures, it cannot be democratic."

"Yixian, compared with the United States, my impression is that Chinese people can only die one by one and be reborn one by one. If a civilization has reproduced for too long, then the remaining people will be submissive and obedient. For these countries, whether it is revolution or democracy, the model she can follow is still one chaos and one governance. In the chaos, they kill each other, compete for the Central Plains, centralize power during governance, and educate the people. This is a cycle. But they become a natural talent, and at the same time, the powers interfere, which makes this cycle skip through the chaos and enter the governance world directly, but that's all.

Revolution, revolution is nothing more than a government that cannot be dictatorial. I remember that I said a long time ago that the Qing Dynasty was overthrown and the Chinese dynasty was born. It was nothing more than a new exchange for the old. This was simply a change of soup and no medicine." Yu Zixun held the Bible and took Sun Wen out of the side door of the church. The sunlight in the late summer morning shone through the gaps of the leaves on his black robe, and everything seemed to be like in the Middle Ages.

"I mean that revolution cannot save China?" Sun Wen asked, following him.

"No, revolution can certainly save China, but the question is what China is?" Yu Zixun asked back. "Is China the people?"

"If any patriots overthrow the current government and implement military affairs, discipline, and constitutionalism, then..." Sun Wendao.

"Yixian is too optimistic." Yu Zixun shook his head, "I have always opposed and disagree with the democracy trained. If a party or group is able to train the people, then he is able to be an autocratic people. Why do they give up their own interests? The initial constitutionalism was just a noble united to fight against the king. This was the case with Britain; France was the people overthrew the emperor and the nobles and established themselves in the republic; the United States established the tradition of democracy since the Mayflower arrived in America. It was the first to be an autonomous society, and then it broke away from the jurisdiction of the Commonwealth and formed its own unity.

I thought back then that if the Tongmenghui occupied Guangdong, Guangxi and even Fujian, the Revival Society would establish a coalition government and restrain each other, which should bring democracy to people, but obviously I was wrong. Yixian, would you really think about the Northern Expedition at that time?"

Ten years have passed since the incident of Xinhai. Whenever Sun Wen thinks of missing the opportunity, he regrets it. If he had won the Guangdong, Guangxi, Fujian and other places at that time, then the Tongmenghui and China would have been a different situation. At this time, Yu Zixun mentioned the past again, and Sun Wen said frankly: "If Yang Jingcheng still insisted on his autocratic style, Wen would definitely make a northern expedition!"

"This is why China will never be democratic." Yu Zixun knew that Sun Wenhui said this. Ten years of accumulation and pastor's hardship made him see many things clearly.

"As long as Tongmenghui becomes the ruling party, through the three stages of military and political, training and constitutionalism, China will inevitably move towards democracy." Sun Wen emphasized.

"No, Yixian. No matter how you teach, it will be bureaucratic politics in the end. Look at China, this year is the third general election of the Academy of Stories, but no matter how you choose, it will be a revival and victory. According to the democratic procedures, you cannot say that this is autocratic. You can only say that it is not democratic enough, but from the actual results, it is autocratic. Whether you say that this is a trick or a concealment, it really exists there.

If Yixian didn't want to fight the Northern Expedition and was willing to manage Guangdong and Guangxi well, then I believe democracy would definitely be realized, but it would be impossible to rule the whole country. I will ask Yixian for an obvious example. When the righteousness of Xinhai was launched, the Mongolians were sent to Tsarist Russia, hoping that Tsarist Russia could support its independence and establish a country. If Yixian was in power, would he agree to Mongolia's independence or oppose Mongolia's independence?" Yu Zixun said again.

"Of course, Mongolia must not be independent." Sun Wen consciously fell into Yu Zixun's trap and answered a little helplessly, but he remedyed: "Mongolia's independence is a political issue, not a democratic issue."

"No matter what the Mongolian issue is, it is a problem that the Mongols do not want to be in the same country as the Han people." Yu Zixun said, "The Mongols' wish is independence. This is the foundation of Mongolia. After erasing this foundation, no matter what form of country is established, no matter what political system is within, or how the election is voting, it is not democratic. From the perspective of the Mongolians, if Yixian is in power, his approach will be no different. I increasingly believe that as long as he agrees with a small country and a small people, he can be democratic, and no matter how good the big nationalists promised before he came to power, they will be imposed. The ultimate implementation of autocracy is autocracy."

The revolutionary leader who claimed to be a democratic revolutionary was said by Yu Zixun as the same as Yang Jingcheng. Sun Wen was a little excited. He suppressed his dissatisfaction and said, "Zixun is too absolute. Take the United States as an example. President Lincoln during the Civil War..."

"So President Lincoln destroyed American democracy and turned the United States into an empire. She could interfere in other countries at will for her own benefit." Yu Zixun interrupted.

"No! This is just democratic... to eliminate the price of sinful slavery." Sun Wen fought hard.

"Has Yixian not read American history in full? If you really haven't read it, you should read it again. Only simple Americans would believe that the Civil War in the North and South was to abolish slavery." Yu Zixun shook his head in sighing. He felt that what Sun Wen knew and learned was too complicated, and in order to prove his point of view, he cut history arbitrarily.

Fake doctors are always unconfident when facing real doctors, and Sun Wen no longer argues after hearing this. He said: "Self-honor may be right, but for the sake of revolution, we must pay attention to propaganda."

"Lie for the sake of revolution, the result is that more lies can be told to fulfill the previous lies, which is not worth the loss." Yu Zixun said, "And I think revolution cannot bring democracy, because autocracy must be used to form a revolutionary organization. At the same time, this autocracy must be several times more than the opponent, and the revolution can succeed. When the Revival came to revolution, the Qing court was already full of holes and crumbling, and now it has become the Chinese Empire under its rule, which is completely incomparable to the Qing Dynasty. If Yixian still insists on the revolution, the hope of success is almost slim. Even if it is really successful, Yixian's government will be several times more autocratic than the current government, otherwise how can it win?"

"Compared with the Zixun from ten years ago, the Zixun now is really disheartening." Sun Wen said sadly. He thought he could still get Yu Zixun's support, but found that his expectations were completely disappointed.

"This is how history reincarnates. Even if there is no Revival, there will be Tongmenghui or other political parties that unify China. As long as it is unified, it will definitely be dictatorship. This is a hurdle that cannot be overcome. Yixian has not read newspapers for so long, so I think he is unfamiliar with Zhuo Ru. The Free Press he posted in Paris has many articles worth reading, which describes the paradox of great unification and democracy in a very specific way. It turns out that the evaluation of him in the past was correct. Only in the wild can Zhuo Ru have real insights. Once in the court, interests will be confused, so that he will not do anything except lying." Yu Zixun said.

"Free News?" Sun Wen didn't hear the news about Liang Qichao for a long time, but he didn't expect that he was in France. He was listening to Yu Zixun saying that Yang Rui had commented on Liang Qichao, and he couldn't help but ask: "How did Yang Jingcheng evaluate me?"

"Evaluate Yixian?" Yu Zixun smiled and said, "He used to have a bad evaluation of Yixian, but later he didn't know why. I didn't hear any specific things about these words, they were just an intention."

The two were walking on the dirt road in the countryside. The sun was not very hot at this time, but it was a little dazzling. While walking, a car drove on the road in the distance. The driving seemed to have seen someone. He frequently 'Didi...' and followed someone behind Sun Wen and quickly stepped forward and said, "Mr. Sun, it's time for us to go back..."

Sun Wen was uneasy about the car that was driving in. He had to say to Yu Zixun: "Zixun, just say goodbye here, we will have a date later."

After all, Sun Wen is a major criminal wanted by the Chinese government. Yu Zixun nodded and said, "Then don't go there again. Take care of Yixian!"

Sun Wen left quickly. After several minutes, the speeding car reached the nearest place. When Yu Zixun saw Cai Yuanpei sitting in the passenger cab, he couldn't help laughing. Wait until the car stopped. Yu Zixun pointed to Cai Yuanpei who was blaming his son for driving too fast and said, "Zimin, you scared Sun Yixian away as soon as you come."

"Sun Yixian?" Cai Yuanpei let Cai Wuji go and looked at Yu Zixun and said, "It's true or false, didn't he say he died in Yunnan?"

"No. He just shook hands with me. More than ten years have passed, and he is still thinking about revolution. Alas, it's really ambition of gold and stone." Yu Zixun said.

"Then what is he looking for you?" On the weekend, Cai Yuanpei, who bought a car, came to find Yu Zixun from New Haven, but Sun Wen was there too.

"He didn't say it, but judging from what the two of them said just now, even if he had something to ask me for help, he would not speak anymore." Yu Zixun said. "In Jingcheng's words, he is outdated and abandoned by the times."

"Then you guys just now..." Cai Yuanpei studied aesthetics at Yale after going to the United States. He is older and has a special status. He does not study at school in the form of international students, but in the form of visiting scholars.

"He believes that only by adhering to revolution can one implement democracy. I think revolution will only establish a more autocratic government." Yu Zixun said. "Actually, look at what we said in the newspapers in the last decades of the Qing Dynasty. Even if we insult Guangxu, there are still concessions to hide. Now, if we want to hide in the concession, we can only jump into the sea and swim across Xiangjiang. Haha, this is really..."

Yu Zixun was smiling bitterly. Cai Yuanpei said seriously: "Zixun, I plan to go back in a few days."

"Go back, go back to China?" Yu Zixun was a little surprised.

"Yes, I'm going back. The fifth national congress is being held in China, and then the third election of the CSR Academy will be held. No matter what I think, I'm going back." Cai Yuanpei said. After he said that, he looked at Yu Zixun, "Zixun, let's go back together, Xiao Xu also hopes you will go back."

"Xiao Xu?" Yu Zixun said. After Zhong Guangguan decided to travel all over the mountains and rivers of China, Wang Jitong was appointed as the Minister of the Lifan Academy as a Mongolian Chinese farming. Cai Yuanpei and himself went back, and the revolutionary heroes were all here.

"Hanzhang may..." Cai Yuanpei mentioned another thing, his expression a little sad.

"What's wrong with Han Zhang?" Yu Zixun raised his heart. He hadn't returned to China for several years and was not clear about many things.

"I was sick once in the spring. Although I survived it, I still didn't get better. Now all official duties are left to others to handle. The doctor said that I might not be able to pass this autumn..." Cai Yuanpei said. Xu Huafeng was the oldest among the revolutionary heroes. He was 64 years old this year, but his body was very strong. Some important projects of the Ministry of Industry, such as when Greater China Automobile set up a 100,000 assembly factory in the United States last year, he went to the United States to attend the groundbreaking ceremony; while Yu Huizu was 57 years old this year. As the age of this year, he should be in good health, but no one expected that his body would collapse as soon as he was sick.

"Is it a foreign doctor or a traditional Chinese medicine doctor?" Yu Zixun murmured after being shocked. Although Yu Huizu had little contact with him, his feelings were very deep. Zixun's father died because of the quack doctor's treatment, so he was extremely hostile to traditional Chinese medicine and did not agree with the so-called national treasures.

"The Imperial Hospital and Western Medicine say it's not possible. There's always a way to do it, but this time I can't help it." Cai Yuanpei's answer eliminated Yu Zixun's last hope. Although his years of pastoral career have made him used to life and death, he couldn't let go of Yu Huizu.

"When will you leave?" Yu Zixun asked, he was already home.

"I have already booked a ticket for the next week," Cai Yuanpei said. "If you are with me, will the two families go together?"

"Okay, I'll go back too, and the whole family will go back." Yu Zixun stroked his fingers on the Bible. With his previous plan, things in the United States should indeed end.

In the past, Yu Zixun returned home alone, but now he is a family. Cai Yuanpei asked, "Will you not come back when you go back?"

"Well." Yu Zixun nodded, "I can't stay in the United States all my life. In the United States for more than ten years, I have learned what I should learn. Next is to go back..." International students often use words such as serving the country and serving the court, but the word serving the people is a derogatory term in Yu Zixun's opinion. He doesn't want to use it. "Revival will come to this point today, and it is indeed a change."

"Change?" Cai Yuanpei smiled and said, "The tide is about to collapse, and the building is about to fall, and he has become a saint in the world. If he doesn't nod, how can he change, how can he change? And you have entered Christianity, hey..."

At present, the easiest way for the Chinese people to distinguish between Chinese and foreign religions is to look at the style of clothes and join the foreign religions. Only then can they not tell what the national treasure is and what is not the national treasure. As a Chinese, they only need to understand the difference between Chinese and foreign religions. If a Chinese still wears a dress and believes in foreign religions in China, his parents and fellow villagers dare not recognize it. Yu Zixun, as a member of the Revival, was expelled from the meeting. However, as one of the founders, he showed few faces in China. Yang Rui did not mention this matter for no reason, so he still retains his membership, but it will not work once he returns to China. This matter will definitely be mentioned in the newspapers at that time. No one knows what the result will be.
