Weng Wenhao, who came out of the US Embassy, ​​did not go home directly. He and his secretary Wu Jingchao went to Xu Xinliu's sheltered residence in Qianliang Hutong, but what he never expected was that Xu Xinliu was living here with a woman.

Since Hu Shi returned to China, he and Cai Yuanpei and others published an article "Our Political Propositions" in the Diploma Weekly, proposing to be a "good person" and believed that only good people can be clear and clear in politics and the country has hope. At that time, the Inspectorate was investigating and punishing the case of corruption in Shanghai. This statement was immediately sought after by public opinion as soon as it was released. His allusion to the Revival Society was extremely obvious. However, after Fei Yugui, a student of Yang Rui, was sentenced to death, this wave of public opinion would pass. But after that, the people who signed the article began to be a "good person". Who would have thought that Xu Xinliu, the Chinese saint who was most praised by public opinion, actually kept an outdoor room.

"Prime Minister..." Xu Xinliu came to the living room in pajamas and talked to Weng Wenhao, knowing that it must be something that he had come here so late.

"I'm a little annoyed, so I'll come to sit here." It was too late. Weng Wenhao wanted to call everyone to meet again, but when he saw Xu Xinliu with a woman here, he was worried that his actions would make Xu Xinliu feel embarrassed.

"Oh." Xu Xinliu held his glasses. He could probably guess what happened, so he said: "It's Yang Jingcheng who refused to cooperate. Since that's the case, I'll ask Shizhi and the others to come here to discuss it."

"Oh, is it convenient?" Weng Wenhao couldn't help asking. He felt that he had come to expose Xu Xinliu's *.

"What's inconvenient?" Xu Xinliu was a little embarrassed, and he turned around, "I'll call right away."

Weng Wenhao went to the Duke's Mansion in the afternoon to negotiate with Yang Rui on the march of the students, but he went to the US Embassy without returning to the Duke's Mansion. During this period, more than a dozen phone calls were called to his residence to find someone. Now everyone heard that he was in Xu Xinliu's private residence. A group of people came soon. When Wu Jingchao talked about the situation in the afternoon, everyone was silent. "Hanged to the telephone pole, no place to die." This was Yang Jingcheng's most direct threat. Everyone thought he would take some face into consideration. Unexpectedly, this person was like a knife that had just slaughtered people, with awe-inspiring murderous aura.

"When will the negotiations against the United States be restarted?" Hu Shi said nothing. Instead, Wu Mi asked, "He is the Minister of Rites and is in charge of literary propaganda. He knew best how destructive the respect for the king and expel the barbarians are.

"We just passed the proposal to withdraw from the alliance today. Shaochuan and Ziwen always have to have some time to do it." Gu Weijun was not there, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs was supported by Jiang Tingfu. Today, Beijing and Hong Kong had two consecutive evil incidents. He was forced by ambassadors of both countries, especially the Soviet ambassadors, and was in a mess.

"Does Americans really have the sincerity to negotiate?" Seeing Jiang Tingfu point out the time, the Minister of the Torado Ministry Ding Wenjiang asked Weng Wenhao's thoughts. "They forced land on the main island of Marshall under the name of seeking a female pilot and killed so many Japanese people. It's really uncivilized."

"You should not be deceived by Japanese newspapers. Before the Americans landed, they had notified the Japanese side that they would enter peacefully, but the Japanese government and the Japanese troops stationed on the island did not accept it, which caused a large-scale war. According to the US report, the Japanese soldiers and citizens on the island were very barbaric, and they even forced women to kill their children and then commit suicide. The Christian Monitor said: 'I have never seen such a barbaric nation!'" Seeing that Ding Wenjiang questioned the justice of the United States landing on the island, Hu Shi immediately explained and quoted the American media's evaluation of the Japanese on the island.

"No matter how barbaric the Japanese are, they cannot change one fact, that is, the United States' landing on the island this time was an act of invasion. Japanese military and civilians defended their own country and territory to the best one. Not only is it unrestrained, but it is also respectable and lamentable!" Ding Wenjiang, who was a science student, likes to believe in the truth. He destroyed the American justice created by Hu Shi's rambling and the image of Japanese barbarism.

"How can this be said to be an invasion?" Hu Shi was a little excited and his voice became louder. "Humanitarianism has no borders, and the barbarity shown by the Japanese is showing that they are likely to kill Miss Emilia. I have always believed that in addition to dictators, there is also the tyranny of the people, there is also the treason and discrimination between countries. For example, this time, it was obviously just a humanitarian rescue. However, more than 5,000 people died because of the estrangement and discrimination between countries. This should not have happened."

The meeting was not about who was right and wrong between Japan and the United States. But Ding Wenjiang and Hu Shi were wronged. Seeing this, Wu Jingchao coughed and said, "Okay, Shizhi. What we are discussing now is how to deal with Yang Jingcheng's threat. With his usual style, this is definitely not a joke. When the next revival meeting comes to the stage to form a cabinet, they will definitely put forward the slogan of respecting the king and expelling the barbarians."

"I still say the same thing: Humanitarianism has no borders. If Revival really does this, it will definitely cause condemnation and protests from countries around the world!" It was indeed hit by Ding Wenjiang. Hu Shi's mood has been excited and can't stop now.

"What's the use of condemnation and protest?" Kong Xiangxi, who had just taken his daughter to surrender and resolved the family's prison disaster, spoke out. "When the world newspaper condemned Yang Jingcheng, we were already hung on the telephone pole. Can countries around the world eat Yang Jingcheng?"

"How dare Yang Jingcheng ignore the world's civilizations?" Hu Shi, the Minister of the Ministry of Culture, Jiang Menglin, who is more literary than Hu Shi, stood up. "The Academy of Juyi, how could the people of the whole country let him do whatever he wants!"

"When the landlords were killed in the fifth year of Shenwu, and when the Kunming rebellion was suppressed, what about the people across the country?" Kong Xiangxi asked back. "I am not worried about myself, I am just worried about the progressive young people across the country. Once Yang Jingcheng raised the banner of respecting the king and expelling the barbarians, what should they do?"

Kong Xiangxi is a descendant of Confucius. In addition to his religious beliefs, his usual style is quite a middle-aged man. He is not a man of worshipping ancestors, and he never talks about freedom, democracy, human rights and fraternity. He believes that revival will not be done by himself, but it is difficult for these people here to say.

"We..." Seeing that everyone was at a loss, Wu Mi had to place his hopes on the United States. He said, "Since humanitarianism has no borders, if a massacre occurs in our country, will the United States send a fleet to save us?"

Wu Mi's naive question made everyone even more disappointed. Even Hu Shi knew very well that the United States would never send troops for him, which was not in line with the American tradition of isolationism. During the silence, Weng Wenhao immediately knew that the meeting was considered a waste of time. He immediately coughed and took Wu Jingchao to the dusk and went without looking back.

In the following days, more and more soldiers went to Beijing, and the hotels in Beijing were crowded with them. Fortunately, the summer vacation began at this time. Some departments at the Army University that had completed the exam first began to have holidays, and many officers and veterans were arranged in the dormitory of the Army University. But what was unexpected was that these students on holiday did not go home. They lived on the lawn of the campus and all the students thought they would have to attend General Xu Jingxi's funeral before going home.

Considering that the Zhongyuan Festival is approaching, they did not wait long. On June 12, 2009, the grand state funeral began. On that day, all the embassies, including the Soviet Union, had replaced the new ambassador, all the embassies were lowered to half a flag to mourn. The entire capital city completely turned into a black and white world. Residents in the inner and outer cities and retired soldiers and students who came from all over the country, totaling about two million people to mourn General Xu Jingxi. Looking at this black and white world, including Weng Wenhao, the people in the new cabinet were once again panicked.

They knew that the Revival Society did not regard the funeral as a demonstration, but instead informed the capital that it could not accommodate more people and constantly asked the people in various places to carry out remote sacrifices, but this obviously could not stop the Chinese people coming to mourn. If they could not stay in the capital, they lived in Tianjin, Tongzhou and other places, or simply slept in the wild. Especially those young students from all over the country, they didn't even sleep and wanted to keep a soul for the general.

The reason for this is that the Empire Daily changed the domestic public opinion to the early revolutionary history of the Revival Society, and directly published Xu Jingxi's revolutionary experience before the founding of the country. Even if there were only a few words in the newspaper, it was enough to arouse their anger for young students. After determining the time of Xu Jingxi's funeral, these people passed the free ticket discount for summer student trains (after the national railway rights and the right to navigate the Yangtze River and other waterways that year, Yang Rui personally decided: During the summer, students of colleges and universities can use their student ID to exempt the third-class tickets for state-owned trains and ships with their student ID to travel to the mountains and rivers of the motherland; after the reform, this amount was included in the national education budget and paid by the state treasury), and rushed to the capital like a tide. If they could not enter the inner and outer cities, they gathered on the side of the road where they went out to see the funeral.

The people were so frenzy at the funeral that Westernized elements, including Stuart, were extremely worried about the trial the next day. But on the day of the trial, unexpected things happened.

The military court is located in the auditorium of the Army University, which can accommodate more than 3,000 people. The judge is the general of the General Secretary earlier. Before he announced the verdict, Xu Jingxi's father Xu Congyun asked to speak. The old man pleaded for mercy as soon as he opened his mouth: "Judge, although I am a little knowledgeable, I know that the students are just being instructed. Although they are already adults, they are inevitably bewitched by others. I also ask the judge to remember his youth and give him a gentle resignation."

The plots were arranged. After Xu Congyun pleaded for mercy, the clerk announced the last procedure before the trial. "The court debate is over, and the defendant will make the final statement below. Please stand up and speak in turn."

Because there are many people involved in the case, the trial was the assassination trial. In addition to six students, five suspects in the explosion outside the city, Yu Dawei, Li Shenghuan and other people. With the help of the bailiff, the first person to stand up was Yu Dawei, the general secretary of the gay community. He stood up, and the young and old Yu family behind him also stood up. Yu Dawei dodged in his eyes and looked at the judges and the members of the public sect on the platform. After a while, he said hoarsely: "Everyone... Sir, Dawei, the elders of the public sect, Dawei is actually guilty!" Yu Dawei was guilty and cried when he said guilty. He shouted: "...I shouldn't have been caught by the gay community for money, and finally they were coerced to do things that hurt the heavens and the people of the public sect..."

Unexpectedly, the most immediate boss betrayed the previous ideals. The people of the gay society, who were originally tough, immediately changed their qualities. Only Wang Yongqi, the head of the Yan group who was carrying out the assassination mission, stood up and cursed: "Defection! You traitor who betrayed your oath, I will not let you, a fearful ghost..."

Wang Yongqi is a lecturer who just graduated from Yan University this year and is about to stay in school. He is the one who is responsible for the assassination mission. As a middle-level backbone of a poor family, he is a hundred times stronger than the rich children of the upper class who are playing. At this time, seeing Yu Dawei repenting in public and betraying his ideals in court, he couldn't help but stand up and curse.

"Silent!" The general in front of the situation knocked the gavel, and the bailiff beside Wang Yongqi immediately pressed him back to his seat, but at this time Yu Dawei had already finished repenting. Li Shenghuan, who was the second to make the final statement, also repent. Although he did not cry, Wang Yongqi was violently stimulated again. Li Shenghuan was one of his introductions to the club, so this time he was unable to stand up and spread his face in his seat as if he was dead.

"The defendant Wang Yongqi will make the final statement below." The clerk read out the name of the third main culprit after Li Shenghuan finished speaking.

With the help of the lawyer, Wang Yongqi had probably prepared his final statement. However, because of the betrayal of the two superiors in the previous period, his voice was weak. But after a few words, his voice replied normally, but most of the people present were unable to understand what he said. However, when he used the Bolshevik Manifesto as the end of the speech, the entire auditorium became silent, leaving only a madman in hysteria:

“…The people of the Ching Society support all revolutionary movements against the existing social and political systems. In all these movements, they emphasize the issue of ownership and regard it as the basic problem of the movement. Regardless of the degree of development of this issue at that time, the people of the Ching Society strive everywhere to strive for unity and coordination among democratic parties around the world.

The people of the Gay Society disdained to conceal their views and intentions. They publicly declared that their purpose could only be achieved by violent overthrowing all existing social systems. Let the ruling class tremble under the anarchic Gay Society revolution. What the proletariat lost in this revolution is only chains, and what they gain will be the whole world.

Proletarians all over the world unite!" Wang Yongqi finally shouted with all his strength, but due to the Petroleum Treaty, he did not dare to say the five words "Long live the Bolsheviks" directly.

Perhaps Wang Yongqi's enthusiasm stimulated several other people. Four of the ten people involved in the assassination and explosion also pleaded passionately and refused to admit their guilt. The student named Mai Zeng even shouted: "I am not guilty, it is you who are guilty, it is you who are kidnapped and manipulated by the ruling class. Look. One day you will be judged by the people... The truth cannot be killed. Kill me Mai Zeng, and there are later people!"

In more than an hour, the fifteen accomplices finished their statements, and the court announced their recess. Fifteen minutes later, the court resumed the trial. After Fan An read the provisions as usual, he began to read the trial: "This court believes that the defendants Yu Dawei, Li Shenghuan, Wang Yongqi, Mai Zeng, Gu Dehuang, Zhang Dehua, Du Hanying, Niu Wenyin... and other fifteen people, including the assassination of General Xu Jingxi, Lei colluded with his gangs with his gangs and privately used firearms for the purpose of assassinating General Xu Jingxi, Lei used the town general and former Prime Minister Yang Rui, colluded with his gangs and used firearms privately. Their actions constituted murder; and they also used the purpose of overthrowing the existing political system of Greater China, inciting hatred and rebellion and creating political conspiracy. Their actions constituted the crime of treason..."

In the newly revised Chinese law, treason is the first of the ten evils. As soon as this crime occurs, the whole audience is worried. The situation continues to read: "In accordance with Article 3, Article 14, Paragraph 1, Article 53, and Article 130, the judgment is as follows:

1. The defendant Yu Dawei was guilty of murder and treason. However, he was found to be coerced by the council of the comrades, so he confessed his crimes and accepted the law. He also thought of the achievements of Yu in the past, so he was sentenced to fifty years in prison and was exempted from the crime of being discharged from the crime of being convicted of being punished.

2. The defendant Li Shenghuan was guilty of murder and treason. However, considering that he confessed his crimes clearly and pleaded guilty and obeyed the law, he was sentenced to 40 years in prison. His parents, brothers, and children over the age of fourteen will be sentenced to resignation and will be sent to the Western Regions.

3. The defendant Wang Yongqi was guilty of murder and treason, and refused to commit crimes in court, bewitching everyone, so he was sentenced to death. His parents, brothers, and children were over fourteen years old…”

Fan Kuang Nian came here and deliberately looked up at Wang Yongqi. Seeing that his body stood proudly but his body was trembling, he lowered his head and said, "His parents, brothers, and children over the age of fourteen will be deprived of Greater China's nationality and will be deported for a limited time!

4. The defendant Mai Zeng was guilty of murder and treason, and refused to commit crimes in court, bewitching everyone, so he was sentenced to death. His parents, brothers, and children, who are over 14 years old, are deprived of Greater China's nationality and are deported for a limited time..."

The household registration system looks terrible, but it is usually only in a miscarriage or fine. Only those at home who truly enjoy the benefits of crime will be sentenced to prison. However, this time, the military court deprived the defendant's family of the nationality for the first time and deported it. This immediately caused an uproar among reporters and citizens on the spot. The penalty for depriving nationality was also used by Sun Wen's Chinese Revolutionary Party before, and this time it did not involve the defendant's family.

The reporters were about to ask a question, but the citizens present applauded fiercely. As military and martyrs, they fully agreed with the court's punishment.

"This judgment is the final judgment, and the judgment will be delivered within three days. The court will be closed!" Fan Kuang finally knocked the gavel heavily and immediately announced the court's closure, leaving only a group of defendants shouting dissatisfied and thunderous applause from the audience.

The next day, during the trial of the Beijing branch of the Anarchy Society, most of the 181 defendants, except for five Americans, pleaded guilty and were sentenced to death, and were eventually sentenced to lightly and their families were exempted from being sentenced. In the trial of another 2,169 students after the Zhongyuan Festival, most of the students were exempted from punishment, and the worst case was only detained for fifteen days.

In such a judgment, public opinion has no harsh words about this and he praised the military court for being kind. Only independent comments believe that the court sentenced too severely to those students who believed in anarchism and failed to confess in court. The seventeen students, together with their families, were deprived of their nationality and were deported. The rabbit died and fox was sad, which made Hu Shi and others see the consequences of their future failure in the struggle. As a stateless person, although he holds a Nansen passport issued by the League of Nations, he can't go anywhere except to go to Nanyang, but what if he goes to Nanyang? Chinese people never use such a criminal passport, only a formal red hot stamping passport. Once this passport is taken out, those who understand know will know that this person has committed a serious crime of treason and cannot avoid it, so don't say help.

However, even though we knew that the trial was extremely vicious, people could not say anything before the more than 2,000 students were still tried. After almost all the more than 2,000 people were acquitted, the previous trial was outdated again. At this time, the League of International officially accepted Japan's complaint and planned to send an investigation team to the Marshall Islands to investigate on-site to understand the real cause and process of the conflict. At the same time, the long-severed Navy negotiations in Washington began again, but this time it was only the negotiations of the Chinese representatives. After the Marshall firefight, all the Japanese representatives had returned to China, and the diplomatic relations between the two countries were reduced from ambassador level to agency level. Newspapers around the world had such a judgment: once the League of International mediation failed, the United States and Japan would immediately fall into a state of war.

It was almost August, and the mountains and forests in Tonghua became more and more shady. After walking around the old forest with Yang Rui for a day, on the way back to the house in the sunset, Wang Jitong remembered the international situation during this period and insisted: "War is really inevitable?"

"Yes!" Yang Rui smoked a cigarette and said with some melancholy: "I didn't expect it to come so quickly."

"We are going to fight to North America?" Wang Jitong asked again, as if the old man was nagging.

"Yes!" Yang Rui smoked and said melancholy again: "It is impossible to end completely without fighting the North American war."

"Can we win?" Wang Jitong asked again and again. This is no longer nagging. "Time is so tight that many projects cannot be completed before the war."

"At least, I won't lose." Yang Rui put down the smoke and vomited to the sky. "After all, everything that should be arranged is arranged."

"What about the Kuomintang?" Wang Jitong asked, endlessly. "Don't forget that we have withdrawn from the East Asian Alliance. For what reason do we declare war on the United States?"

"Americans will declare war on us." Yang Rui threw away the smoke, tied the horse and pointed at the road one kilometer ahead and said to Wang Jitong: "Xiao Xu, have you seen that big red pine?"

"See," Wang Jitong was not sure, so, "What do you want to do?"

"Game." Yang Rui laughed, "I always think that those messy things will be broken. When we compete, whoever arrives at the big red pine will win. If you win, I won. If you lose, I will go back to fill a bottle of Erguotou at night. How about it?"

Yang Rui's face was full of smiles. After hearing this, Wang Jitong felt that he was indeed a goddess. When he thought of Yang Rui's bad riding skills, he immediately said, "Okay. But you must be the one who lost."

"Then come." Yang Rui glanced at the guard captain Xu Caigen and said, "You come and issue the order."

I didn't expect that Xu Caigen was calling the order, but Wang Jitong laughed over there: "Don't issue the order, start!" Then he whipped the horse hard and actually rushed forward in advance.

"Your mother!" Yang Rui, who was one step behind, was very angry. He quickly slapped forward, and then ran and cursed: "The king is a bastard. He is not a good man. He won't count!" His screams and scolding followed the urgent horse hooves and left.
