Chapter 57 Join the Alliance

Wu Shaoting followed Guan Renfu away from the scene of the car accident, passed through an alley, and left Shamian Street.

After coming to a street next door, he walked into a deep alley, turned several times, and came to a unique yard. Guan Renfu stepped forward and patted the yard gate. The people inside the door opened the door without even asking questions.

"Tongmenghui just opens the door at will?" Wu Shaoting asked strangely.

Guan Renfu did not answer, but just pointed at the top of the alley.

Wu Shaoting looked up and saw a figure flashing behind the windows of a two-story building in the alley. He sighed secretly: It turned out that there was a secret whistle investigating!

The person who opened the door was a gentleman wearing a long gown and glasses. Wu Shaoting had no impression of it. He nodded slightly to Wu Shaoting and Guan Renfu and asked them to go into the house first.

Wu Shaoting and Guan Renfu walked into the living room of the main house. The living room was not big. Hu Hanmin, Wang Shouzheng, Zhu Zhixin and two other people who had never met had sat down. When they saw Guan Renfu bringing Wu Shaoting back, they immediately stood up to greet him.

"Zhenzhi, why did you make this look like this?" Hu Hanmin looked at Wu Shaoting covered in dust and asked in surprise.

Wu Shaoting sighed, looking very depressed, and didn't say much.

Guan Renfu shook his head helplessly and said, "There was almost trouble just now. This Wu Zhenzhi, Lord Wu, really has a stubborn temper!"

Wang Shouzheng immediately asked: "We heard two gunshots just now. Is this related to the earthquake?"

Guan Renfu nodded and said with a sense of laughter and cry, "It was this person who shot in the street and injured two people." Immediately, he told all the things that happened on Shamian Street.

After listening to Guan Renfu's story, everyone looked at each other, and each of them showed different degrees of surprise. After a long time, a man in his thirties, wearing a pair of vinyl eyes and wearing a somewhat old suit, laughed and said with admiration: "Zhenzhi is indeed a good young man with a strong and upright heart."

Hu Hanmin smiled slightly, and before introducing Wu Shaoting, he said calmly: "Zhenzhi, there is actually one thing that I have been hiding from you for a long time, so please don't blame me."

Wu Shaoting thought for a while and said bluntly: "Does Cousin Zhan tell me that you have been secretly sending someone to monitor me for a long time?"

Everyone was a little surprised. How could Wu Shaoting know?

Wu Shaoting laughed and said, "It seems you don't know yet. Ni Duan had told me yesterday."

Everyone had different ideas in their hearts. Some people thought that Ni Duan was too arrogant and publicly confessed his identity; others were thinking that since Ni Duan trusted Wu Shaoting so much, it seemed that that incident was indeed a misunderstanding.

Hu Hanmin nodded slowly and smiled, "It turns out that Brother Zhen already knows it. That's right, we and Ni Duan are both comrades of the Tongmenghui." He pointed to the man who praised Wu Shaoting just now, "This is the head of the Foreign Affairs Department of the Tongmenghui Executive Department, named Liao Enxu and courtesy Zhongkai."

Wu Shaoting was stunned. It turned out that this kind of brother was Liao Zhongkai and Sun Yat-sen's most enthusiastic follower, one of the three major veterans of the Kuomintang, and the early leader of the Kuomintang! He sighed secretly, and he really met another boss today.

"Mr. Zhongkai, I'm lucky to meet you." He pretended to meet for the first time and bowed to Liao Zhongkai.

Hu Hanmin introduced another person and said, "This talented man from our Guangzhou Branch of Tongmenghui, Zou Lu, whose courtesy name is Haibin, is now teaching in the School of Political Science and Law."

Zou Lu was also a big shot, a famous educator, calligrapher, politician, and one of the witnesses of Sun Yat-sen's will. During the War of Resistance Against Japan, he presided over the political activities of "anti-Japanese and anti-Chiang Chiang" and forced Chiang Kai-shek to announce his resignation from his position in both military and political circles. He has always been a big banner in cultural and public opinion. He has written many revolutionary publications and has had a great influence in the news and public opinion circles. At the same time, he is also committed to the development of education, reforming the old teaching system, advocating male and female classmates, founding Lequn Middle School, teaching at Guangdong Political and Law School, and serving as the president of Sun Yat-sen University.

Wu Shaoting bowed to Zou Lu and smiled and said, "It turns out it is Mr. Haibin. I have read the article published by Mr. Haibin in the Guangdong Political and Business Daily earlier. I have long admired it for a long time. It is a blessing to meet each other today."

Zou Lu laughed and said modestly: "Brother Zhen is too good. Zou has indeed written a few unsatisfactory articles. It's just to get some royalties for detailed use. It makes you laugh."

Hu Hanmin pointed at Wang Shouzheng again and said to Wu Shaoting: "Since we have made it open and honest to Zhenzhi today, we will no longer hide anything. In fact, this Wang Shouzheng is Huang Xing and Huang Keqiang, the revolutionary patriots wanted by the court across provinces."

When Wu Shaoting actually saw Wang Shouzheng for the first time, he had already suspected that the other party was the legendary Huang Xing. Now that Hu Hanmin exposed all the cover-ups, he finally confirmed his guess. He immediately showed a sudden look and sighed, "Brother Wang is the famous Huang Xing and Huang Keqiang? He used to be so clumsy, he was disrespectful."

Huang Xing laughed and stopped and said politely: "Zhen Zhi is too polite."

As for Guan Renfu, Wu Shaoting had known each other on the road before, so he did not introduce them again.

Hu Hanmin calmed down and brought the topic to the main business, saying, "Zhengzhi, I invite you to come today. The main reason is that there are two major things to discuss with you."

Wu Shaoting nodded and said, "Please also let cousin Zhan make clear."

Hu Hanmin, Huang Xing and Liao Zhongkai looked at each other, and then said, "Now Zhenzhi, you already know our true identity, but we also know that Zhenzhi will never betray us. In addition, after our many contacts with Zhenzhi and the observations of comrades hidden in the army, we can see that Zhenzhi is a person who knows loyalty and righteousness, understands Dali, and has patriotic sincerity. Therefore, we want to invite Zhenzhi to join the Tongmenghui and work together to fight for the great revolutionary cause of expelling the Tartars and revitalizing China."

Wu Shaoting had long guessed Hu Hanmin's intention, and he had also been looking forward to joining the Tongmenghui, which was the first step to establish his identity as a revolutionary. He immediately slapped his thigh, his face full of fascination, and his tone was excited: "I have been waiting for this day for a long time. Unfortunately, I have never had the right opportunity to be introduced to join until I returned from abroad. Yesterday I learned that the Ni Duan brothers were also members of the Tongmenghui, and they were originally planning to beg cousin Zhan to recommend me to join the association."

Everyone smiled happily after hearing Wu Shaoting's words.

Hu Hanmin nodded deeply and said with a smile: "Zhenzhi, if you have this enthusiasm, it will be worth our trust in you."

Wu Shaoting asked, "Then, I dare to ask when I can go through the membership procedures."

Liao Zhongkai laughed and said, "It's now. Your recommender is Zhan Tang and Keqiang. In addition, because of the special matter, Zou Haibin personally completed your oath and application for joining you. At present, only Zhenzhi personally signs and seals, and signs the public notice charter of my Tongmenghui Guangzhou Branch to become a member of my revolutionary patriot."

Wu Shaoting nodded happily and hurriedly bowed to Zou Lu and thanked: "If you have time to write for Mr. Haibin, I am so scared. If you have free time in the future, I will definitely invite Mr. Haibin to dinner and thank you."

Zou Lu smiled and said, "What's the point of asking for a simple task? The fact that my Tongmenghui can join is just like a tiger with wings. I'm not too happy yet."

Wu Shaoting thanked Hu Hanmin again and Huang Xing: "Cousin Zhan, Brother Keqiang, you two can take the time to serve as the recommender for me. I am grateful to you. I will do my best to do my best in the future and do my best to do my best to the great cause of the revolution."

Huang Xingzang said: "Okay, this sentence is enough with you."

Hu Hanmin got up and walked into the inner room, took out a tray, which had several stacks of paper with brushes and a pair of ink on it. He placed the tray on the table in front of Wu Shaoting and said, "Zhenzhi, look at the application for Mr. Haibin to write for you first. If there is no place to modify, you can sign and detain it."
