Late that night, Sun Yuanqi received the news that Liang Shiyi had been killed. His first reaction when he was shocked was that Yuan Shikai was going to take Liang Shiyi's blame!
By the way, Liang Shiyi is indeed a good top candidate.
As the Secretary-General of the Presidential Palace, he is not only the chief of staff, but also the spokesperson of Yuan Shikai to the outside world. He is known as the "Second President" and the "Little President". It is not difficult for him to mobilize the army, but to surround him The attack on the Congress and the headquarters of the New China Party can also be interpreted as competing with Sun Yuanqi for the position of prime minister.
Yuan Shikai could have put all the blame on Liang Shiyi, and then staged a righteous act of "killing Ma Su with tears" to restore the already infamous image that was criticized by thousands of people. Although this move may not completely stop the world from talking, it is more than enough to barely maintain the dignity of the president.
However, what Sun Yuanqi never expected was that the murderer turned out to be Yuan Keding, and he was charged with "colluding with foreign thieves and intending to cause chaos." At this time, Liang Shiyi's benefactor Yuan Shikai was lying on the hospital bed, not knowing whether he was alive or dead. Seeing Yuan Keding destroying the Great Wall in this way, Sun Yuanqi couldn't help but sigh: What a good job!
However, the person involved, Yuan Keding, was completely unaware of it and was likely to commit suicide to the end! After Liang Shiyi was eliminated, the Presidential Palace became a mountain of flowers and fruits, and he was the monkey without a tail. He also turned out the "Presidential Seal" that was originally treasured by Yuan Shikai and Liang Shiyi, and made it straight. It is stamped on the Treaty of the Three Years of the Republic of China (1905) between China and Japan. This treaty was secretly signed by China and Japan overnight. Former Prime Minister Zhao Bingjun, as the person in charge of the matter, signed and pledged the treaty on behalf of Yuan Shikai. The Japanese representative was Entaro Yamaza, the Minister to China. No one in the country knew about this matter. There are only a few people.
Zhao Bingjun and Yuan Keding thought they were perfect. But Sun Yuanqi was able to learn in advance even the top-secret information about the siege of Congress and the attack on the headquarters of the New China Party. How could such a major event as the signing of a traitorous treaty escape the eyes and ears of the New China Party? Basically, when the treaty was just drafted, Sun Yuanqi already knew the basic content; before the ink was dry on the signing of the treaty between the two parties, the intelligence agency had already obtained the "Seal of the President" and the "Seal of the Embassy of the Empire of Japan in China". "Photo negative. It is conceivable that within a day at the earliest, or at the most two days, the image of this treaty will appear on the front pages of newspapers in Shanghai!
At the moment, Yuan Keding knew nothing about this. After executing Liang Shiyi and signing the treaty, his whole body fell into an inexplicable restlessness and excitement, just like the involuntary trembling after taking opium, and it seemed that his hair was trembling and jumping. Especially when his father's former cronies Duan Qirui, Ruan Zhongshu, Yang Shiqi, Cao Kun and others saw him groveling and not daring to look directly at him, he was even more happy.
He also changed his previous humility and courtesy, and began to follow the style of his father Yuan Shikai and issue orders to Duan Qirui, Ruan Zhongshu and others, such as instructing Duan Qirui to urge Zhang Hongkui's troops to take the initiative to attack Jingshi University instead of passively defending and waiting for death; For example, he ordered Ruan Zhongshu to take over Liang Shiyi's task of commanding the troops to surround the Congress. If necessary, he could even kill a few people to establish his authority and let those unscrupulous members of Congress learn a lesson!
Perhaps it was Liang Shiyi¡¯s death that gave Ruan Zhongshu a lesson. After taking over the army, he immediately strengthened the control over the entry and exit of the Congress and ordered the Congress to elect a president before dawn, otherwise he would bear the consequences. Although the congressmen found that the atmosphere was slightly different from before, after the huge changes during the day, everyone's psychological quality has obviously improved, and most of them have a wait-and-see attitude towards this verbal threat.
Seeing that the MPs remained indifferent, Ruan Zhongshu couldn't help but became furious. He knew that Yuan Keding was young, irritable and irritable, and he had just taken power and was eager to establish his authority. If he disappointed him, he would very likely make the same mistake as Liang Shiyi! Moreover, he has already killed a Secretary-General of the Presidential Palace and would definitely not mind killing another Deputy Secretary-General of the Presidential Palace. Ruan Zhongshu did not hesitate for too long on the multiple choice question of either the MPs dying or losing their heads.
In the darkest moment before dawn, all the MPs were asleep in the lounges of their respective political parties. A group of thugs armed with sticks and guns suddenly kicked open the door violently, fired several shots into the air, and shouted: "All MPs are here." Gather at the venue and hold a presidential election immediately, otherwise we will be killed without mercy!¡±
The sound of gunshots in the dark night was extremely harsh, and all the congressmen were shocked, and their sleepiness suddenly disappeared. Everyone looked at each other and understood the principle of "a good man never suffers the consequences of the present". While slowly starting to dress and get up, they discussed countermeasures with each other in private in low voices. Yang Du had realized that the development of the matter was beyond his control, and he whispered: "The situation is unclear now, don't talk casually, and don't be too resistive. If they demand the election of a president, then vote for it, no matter what."Please give more votes to Li Huangpi and Sun Yat-sen, and let them rejoice in vain. Our goal is to delay as much time as possible until noon tomorrow. I believe that by then the situation will take a huge turn! "
Nearly 800 members of the House of Representatives and the Senate were driven to the venue like animals by this group of thugs. Everyone looked at each other with a bit of fear and uneasiness and were speechless. At this time, the leading middle-aged man said loudly: "I'm really sorry for disturbing the good dreams of all members! It's just that there are giant enemies inside and powers watching outside. The country cannot be without a master for a day, but the position of the president is vacant. We, the citizen representatives, have been worried for a long time, so we have no choice but to take this step. We go to the National Assembly to petition all members, hoping that everyone will elect a president as soon as possible, so as to reassure the world and comfort the people!
"As long as you elect the president of our choice, you can regain your freedom and enjoy delicious food at home. Isn't it far better than suffering in the venue? At that time, we and other citizen representatives will also come to your homes to bear the thorns. I apologize and ask all members to forgive my offence! If you don¡¯t have any objections, let¡¯s start voting according to the procedures!¡±
The members of the New China Party had been warned by Yang Du before going out, and they were silent at the moment. But someone on the Kuomintang side became angry and scolded: "You say you are citizens' representatives, but do you mean they are citizens' representatives? What evidence is there? Why do you think you can represent the wishes of 400 million people? What evidence is there?" According to the law, we legislators are the real representatives of citizens and can represent the wishes of 40 million people!"
"That's right!" Another Kuomintang congressman standing next to him also stood up and denounced, "Don't you want to elect the president? Since you claim to be citizen representatives and represent the wishes of 40 million people, you can just elect the president directly. Why is it necessary? Disturbing us at four or five o'clock in the morning? Since you know that you have no right to elect the president on behalf of the people, then just disperse and wait for our news! What sense does it make to surround Congress and force an election now?"
The middle-aged man walked near them and smiled coldly: "Are you two done? Do you have any last words?"
"Huh?" The second member of parliament who spoke couldn't help but be stunned.
The first member of the House of Representatives to speak glared: "What do you want to do? Do you know the "House of Representatives Law"? Let me tell you, except for current crimes, members of the two Houses of Representatives are not allowed to arrest unless they have the permission of the respective houses or congressional committees. Or surveillance! Is it possible that you still want to break the law in public?"
The middle-aged man frowned slightly: "Are these your last words?" Then he said to the thugs behind him: "Now that they have finished speaking, let's send them on their way!" The thugs behind him immediately took out a few pokers from his arms and said to The two congressmen were shot indiscriminately. They saw blood splattering all over their bodies. They screamed a few times before falling down on their seats. They were obviously too dead to die. Members of Congress screamed in surprise at the moment the shots were fired, but the venue soon fell silent.
The middle-aged man seemed very satisfied with the effect. After looking around, he asked loudly: "Who else has any objections now?"
There was no more sound in the huge venue.
¡°Since there are no objections, let¡¯s start voting!¡±
"Wu still has a question!" At this time, a voice came from the rostrum.
There are still people who are not afraid of death at this time? The middle-aged man suddenly turned around.
Speaker Wu Jinglian hurriedly explained: "When the House of Representatives and the Senate discussed the formulation of the Constitution, members had many differences on the chapter of "President", including the issue of the number of votes for the presidential election. Some people advocated referring to the "Provisional Constitution", That is, the candidate who has more than three-quarters of the total members present and obtains more than two-thirds of the total number of votes cast is elected; some people think that the condition of more than three-quarters of the total members being present is too harsh, and advocate that more than two-thirds of the total number of electors should be present. Those who attend as non-voting delegates and obtain three-quarters of the total number of votes cast will be elected. This issue is still unresolved, so I am afraid that your election will¡ª¡ª"
The middle-aged man replied impatiently: "Then let's vote on this issue now! I don't care which plan you adopt, in short, a president must be elected before dawn, otherwise I will recognize all the members, but I will not recognize who you are with the paper in my hand!" "
With the advocacy of Civic Party members, the latter plan was quickly passed, and then voting for the presidential election officially began. Because we had never played a presidential election before, everyone was not very familiar with the process. In addition, the matter was in a hurry, and even the necessary ballots, ballot boxes and other tools had to be prepared temporarily. Therefore, despite the repeated urging of the middle-aged man, the first round of voting It was still not until around nine o'clock in the morning that the results were tallied.
I don¡¯t know whether the KMT members were deliberately acting out of resentment, or whether the New China Party members followed Yang Du¡¯s instructions. In addition, it was a secret ballot. The results of the first round of voting were varied. For example, the current Speaker Wu Jinglian got 56 votes, and the exiled Sun Yat-sen got 45 votes. Li Yuanhong, who was imprisoned in Yingtai, received 102 votes, and the remaining votes were innumerable. The most interesting thing is that Sun Yuanqi, the current Prime Minister of the Cabinet, actually got 231 votes, which was almost the same as Yuan Shikai's 259 votes!
