    There are many reasons that prompted Sun Yat-sen to go north this time, but in the final analysis they are related to the current political situation and Sun Yat-sen's personal understanding of national development.

    The current political situation is that Tang Shaoyi¡¯s cabinet has reached the end of its rope. What should we do next?  The Alliance, represented by Song Jiaoren, made rapid progress and proposed that the future cabinet should be a purely political party cabinet.  The Republican Party responded tit-for-tat, proposing that the current cabinet system of mixed parties must continue to be used in the future.  Although the current intentions of the other major party, the New China Party, are unclear, there are already rough signs of a split in the Senate.

    The Republican Party is currently the largest party in the Senate, and the Alliance has a tendency to catch up. Any party has the ability to prevent the passage of the bill.  If the two are divided and opposed in the Senate, the most direct consequence is that no matter who forms the cabinet in the future, the proposed list of cabinet personnel will not be approved in the Senate.  And now China implements a responsible cabinet system. Once the current Tang Shaoyi cabinet collapses and the new cabinet list cannot be approved, the country will fall into anarchy for a long time.

    What¡¯s even more terrible is that the Alliance is clearly in the color of the Southern Revolutionary Party, while the Republican Party is in the color of the conservative party in central and northern China.  The political dispute between the two parties can easily evolve into a regional dispute and a power struggle between the north and the south.

    For Yuan Shikai, not long after he took the throne of the interim president, the country's internal financial resources were exhausted and external powers were forcing it. The situation was precarious. But if he wanted to make a change, he had to unify the country first; and his plan to gradually unify the provinces was at this time  We have just started, and our control over the situation across the country is still very weak, so the problem cannot be solved instantly.  Whether out of selfishness or publicity, Yuan Shikai did not want the country to be in chaos now.

    The ideal political system in Yuan Shikai's mind is the presidential system of the United States, that is, there is no cabinet prime minister, and the heads of departments are directly responsible to the president.  However, due to the obstruction of the Alliance, his ideal could not be realized for a while, so he had to settle for the second best and play tricks on the responsible cabinet system, at least it could not be a pure party cabinet as hoped by the Alliance.  He thought that he could not persuade Song Jiaoren, who had no access to oil and salt, so he had to target Sun Yat-sen, who would have great influence on the alliance but did not have much moral integrity. Therefore, he strongly invited Sun Yat-sen to go north to discuss the country's affairs.

    And what about Sun Yat-sen?  After the success of the revolution, he turned into an economist. He felt that the two principles of nationhood and civil rights had been realized because of the abdication of the Qing government. The most important issue now was to implement economic revolution and solve people's livelihood problems.  At present, the country is weak, the people are poor, and foreign aggression is constant. The situation is like a mess, and no matter who is in power will be at a loss.  If you try to deal with it only by political means, it will only make things worse!  how to solve this problem?  He, a dabbler economist, believes that the country should vigorously develop industry to fundamentally solve the problem of a weak country and poor people, so that people's livelihood will be abundant and the country will be prosperous and strong. Only then can political problems be solved.  To put it bluntly, this is the twisted expression of Master Ma's "economic base determines the superstructure".

    But with the current conflicts between the North and the South, party conflicts, and domestic turmoil, how can there be an environment suitable for industrial development?  When he received a telegram from Yuan Shikai inviting him to go north to discuss state affairs, Sun Yat-sen felt that an opportunity had come!

    In addition, there are two small reasons. First, the political parties in Beijing have reached a critical moment of differentiation and alliance, especially the Tongmenghui, which has negotiated good conditions with parties such as the United Republican Party, the Kuomintang Party, the National Association for the Advancement of the People, and the Association for the Real Progress of the Republic.  A merger ceremony was held to form the Kuomintang, which would become famous in later generations.  At this critical moment of major changes, as the leader of the Tongmenghui, Sun Yat-sen naturally could not be absent.

    As for the second reason, Sun Yat-sen was lonely.  Among the so-called "Five Giants in the Early Republic of China", Yuan Shikai was the interim president, Li Yuanhong was the vice president, Sun Yuanqi was the director-general of education, and Huang Xing had just retired from his post in Nanjing. Only he, Sun Yat-sen, was a lonely ghost.  In the more than six months since he retired from the post of interim president, he has only served as the national railway supervisor in name only. Apart from delivering a few speeches and accepting a few interviews in major cities in the south, he has almost disappeared from the political arena.  If he does not establish his presence in the political center, he will be marginalized.

    ¡°But for the holding of the Big Five meeting, the reactions from all parties are different.  Yuan Shikai and Sun Yat-sen sang and reciprocated, and seemed extremely enthusiastic.  Sun Yuanqi himself was in Beijing. He quite agreed with the purpose of the meeting to reconcile the north and the south, avoid conflicts, and develop industry. However, he was highly doubtful of Yuan Shikai's sincerity and wary of his methods.  Li Yuanhong is in Wuchang, and he is optimistic about the success of the meeting and happy to see its results. But if he wants to leave Hubei to attend the meeting, he can only express gratitude and insensitivity!  The one who opposed the most fiercely was Huang Xing.

    Huang Xing¡¯s objection to participating in the meeting is not without reason.  When he was a guard in Nanjing, assassins tried to attack him several times, but luckily he was able to defeat them all.  He suspected that this was a killer sent by Yuan Shikai.  Because Yuan Shikai admires strength very much and believes that??Short-selling ideologues like Zhongshan are not very harmful to him. What is difficult to deal with is a practical person like himself, so he is eager to get rid of himself.  Unfortunately, there is no definite evidence to prove that Yuan Shikai did this.  Moreover, Huang Xing was drastically disbanding redundant troops in Nanjing at that time. It is also possible that the dismissed officers and soldiers were dissatisfied and sent people to shoot black guns to vent their anger.

    Although there was a reason for the incident and no solid evidence, it made Huang Xing more vigilant.  Then the Zhang Zhenwu case broke out, and Huang Xing couldn't help but be frightened: If he had been unlucky before, would he have died as brutally as Zhang Zhenwu?  Therefore, he was even more suspicious of Yuan Shikai and the policy of cooperation between the Tongmenghui and Yuan Shikai.  After leaving office in Nanjing, he wandered around Shanghai, neither going south to meet with other revolutionaries, nor going north to attend the "Big Five Conference" convened by Sun and Yuan.

    But Sun Yat-sen didn¡¯t care whether Huang Xing was willing or not, just like what was said in a sketch: Anyway, I¡¯ll come if you like it, and if you don¡¯t, I¡¯ll come too. Whether you like it or not, I¡¯ll come with sincerity!  He took a boat with more than a dozen people, including his family members and cronies, to go northward and arrived at Tanggu Pier in Tianjin on the day the Senate proposed the impeachment case.

    After the news of Sun Yat-sen's northward journey was sent out, Yuan Shikai figured out that Sun Yat-sen liked to be noticed, and ordered a grand welcome with the courtesy of welcoming a head of state. He also sent Zhao Bingjun, the Director-General of the Interior of the State Council, and Liang Shiyi, the Secretary-General of the Presidential Office, to wait at the dock.  Sun Yat-sen was really elated when he saw such a battle, and he began to speak nonsense when speaking to reporters: "Before Sun went north, many people came to dissuade him, thinking that President Yuan Da was not reliable. Since he dared to kill Zhang Chunshan before, he would dare to kill him later.  Sun Yixian, this trip to the north will do a lot of harm but nothing good. But Sun disagrees. President Yuan is the pillar of the country, how can he be unreliable? So I want to go north in person to test my vision.

    "Facts have proved that Sun's vision is still very accurate! Although Sun has not yet met President Yuan Da, I have already felt his sincerity and feel that he is absolutely loyal to the Republic of China. So we and other citizens must also  Compare yourself to your own heart, and you must not harbor suspicions or make false accusations against President Yuan, undermine the overall situation of national unity, and harm President Yuan¡¯s good intentions. As long as the people of our country are united, there will be endless hope for the future of our Republic of China!"

    As soon as he finished speaking, a reporter asked: "Mr. Sun, what do you think of the murder of Zhang Zhenwu?"

    Sun Yat-sen replied: "The root cause of Zhang Chunshan's murder case was that Vice President Li had the overall safety of Hubei in mind and had no choice but to kill the most important hero; President Yuan had to have the unity of the country's north and south in mind and had no choice but to sign the execution decree. The two of them  Although they all have faults, their intentions are excellent, and their flaws cannot be concealed. And now that the deceased is dead, even if all relevant personnel are severely investigated and dealt with, the deceased cannot be brought back to life, so why intensify the conflict? In Sun's opinion, it is better to commend them vigorously  Zhang Zhenwu's meritorious service is to reconcile the two, so as not to make a fuss out of a molehill and delay important political matters."

    Then another reporter asked: "Mr. Sun, there is news that one of the main purposes of your trip north this time is to attend the reorganization ceremony of the Tongmenghui and assume the position of chairman. As we all know, the Tongmenghui has always advocated the implementation of a purely political party cabinet. In fact, Song Dun  Chief Chu wants to be the prime minister of the cabinet. Now that the Alliance has been reorganized, it will become the largest party in the cabinet. General Song Dunchu will be appointed as the prime minister soon. There are rumors in the newspapers recently that General Song Dunchu intends to nominate you as the president. Is that true?  so?"

    Sun Yat-sen's face changed slightly, but he still replied with a smile: "Sun went north to discuss with President Yuan, Vice President Li, General Baixi, Mr. Keqiang and other wise men. The main issues raised were respect for the Senate, the inseparability of the North and the South, and  The overall situation urgently requires unification, rapid development of industry, etc. As for participating in the reorganization ceremony of the Tongmenghui, it is just a casual move.

    "Since Sun retired, he has devoted himself to building 100,000 miles of railway, hoping to contribute to the prosperity of business and the development of the national economy. He never wants to be in politics, but only wants to be a free citizen, so how can he covet the president?  Where is the position? The press spread rumors and misled people a lot! It seems that Sun has another issue in this meeting, which is to strengthen media supervision and create sound political commentary."

    Immediately, another reporter asked: "Mr. Sun, Mr. Huang Keqiang just issued a statement in Shanghai a few days ago, stating that he will not participate in this meeting. Although Vice President Li, who is stationed in Wuchang, praised the meeting, he has no plans to go north.  Signs. Will this five-person meeting end with only three participating?"

    Sun Yat-sen nodded: "I have heard the two pieces of news you mentioned. However, both Keqiang and Song Qing were great men who founded the Republic of China and have a huge influence among the people. This meeting cannot but come; and they both  They are loyal people who care about the world and love their country and people. This meeting is related to the future of the Republic of China, so they will not fail to come. Therefore, they will definitely come."

    After a pause, he waved his hand vigorously and emphasized again: "Yes, they will definitely come!" (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)lnovel.com
