    Tang Tianxi opened the envelope and took out the letter paper, read Zhao Bingjun's suicide note at a glance, and then replied: "In the letter, Zhao Zhi'an mainly thanked the commander-in-chief for his support over the years and asked the commander-in-chief to forgive his sins. As for his last wish, he only had one, that is  I sincerely ask the commander-in-chief to allow him to be buried near Chongling. If not, he can be buried near Lianggezhuang Palace."

    Chongling is the mausoleum of Emperor Guangxu of the Qing Dynasty. It is also the last mausoleum among all Chinese emperors. It is located within the scope of the Western Mausoleum of the Qing Dynasty. It was built in the first year of Xuantong (1909) shortly after the death of Emperor Guangxu. In the second year of the Republic of China (1913), the underground palace was built last year.  After it was completed, Guangxu's coffin and Queen Longyu, who had just died of illness, were able to be laid to rest. Before that, his Zi Palace had been temporarily stored in the Guande Hall of the Forbidden City.

    Yuan Shikai obviously did not expect that Zhao Bingjun's last wish would be this. He was silent for a long time before saying: "Although Zhao Zhi'an said he was grateful for my support, in fact, the one he was most grateful for and felt most guilty for was Emperor De Zongjing. In his opinion, it was precisely because of De  Emperor Zongjing used meritocracy in an eclectic way, and he was able to gradually rise from a soldier and an official to a state magistrate and a minister. However, during the 1911 year, he forced the orphaned and widowed Empress Dowager Longyu to issue an abdication edict, so he still held grudges until his death and wanted to be buried.  The location near Chongling not only symbolizes protection, but also expresses atonement."

    Tang Tianxi said: "Then shall we agree to him?"

    Yuan Shikai said: "As the saying goes, 'The beauty of a gentleman is not the evil of a man. The villain is the opposite.' Since Zhi'an has such a good heart, we should try our best to fulfill his last wish. Why bother to be such a bad person?"

    Tang Tianxi stood at attention and replied: "Yes, let's do the humble job now!"

    Yuan Shikai waved his hand: "This matter is not urgent. I still have two things to ask you to do. Now that Yansun and Xizi are both dead, everyone around them is half-hearted. I can only trouble you! The first thing is  Telegraphed the whole country, and quickly summoned reporters from various newspapers to publish the news, notifying the newspapers we controlled to publish the news, saying that Zhao Zhian had conspired to seize power, killed Liang Yansun, secretary-general of the Presidential Office, secretly signed a treasonous treaty with the Japanese minister in China, and is now under investigation by the President.  Ming. Already committed suicide out of fear of crime.

    "The second thing is to work with Nguyen Dou Chan to handle parliamentary matters as soon as possible. Once the official president is elected, immediately announce the dissolution of the Civic Party and agree to Sun Baixi's previous proposal to expel and punish Kuomintang members. Deprive all Kuomintang members of their qualifications and confiscate  Their badge of credentials ensures that it will be difficult for Congress to convene over the next two years.¡±

    Tang Tianxi was doubtful, but he still replied neatly: "I humbly obey my orders!"

    Yuan Shikai seemed to see Tang Tianxi's doubts.  Immediately explained: "Yunting. Do you think it is unkind for me to throw dirty water on Zhao Zhi'an? They say that the dead are the most important. Zhao Zhi'an has followed me for most of his life, with no credit but hard work. Now he should try his best to preserve his reputation.  That's right, why do I have to be so ruthless? I have no choice but to do this! Previously, we were already notorious for intimidating Congress and besieging the headquarters of the New China Party; and now that we have signed such a traitorous treaty with Japan, I am afraid that we have already become unpopular.  Those who are criticized and criticized are completely equivalent to Hong Chengchou and Wu Sangui in the eyes of the people across the country. People like chickens, dogs and thieves disdain to associate with us, not to mention the talents within our Beiyang Group?

    "We are worried about falling apart internally. Outside, Sun Baixi is coming with a wave of national public opinion. If we are not careful, the Beiyang Group that we have been operating for decades will be destroyed. At this time, I can only give up my car to protect my commander.  Use Zhao Zhi'an's sexual naming festival in exchange for the understanding and support of our Beiyang Group from the people across the country, and then use the power of the president to compete with Sun Baixi. The reason for this, Yunting, can you understand?"

    Tang Tianxi replied solemnly: "I understand the humble position!"

    Yuan Shikai sighed and then said: "There may be people who criticize me for clinging to power and would rather betray the country and destroy the republic than give up the position of president. But looking around the country, who dares to claim that he is more suitable to be the president than me? Zaifeng  No! He is only suitable to be an idle prince who grows flowers and vegetables and walks around. Sun Yat-sen is not good either! Although he has a thousand words in his mouth, he really has no plan in mind. What he is best at is deceiving the world and confusing people with big words. This kind of person  Are you talking too much about governing the country and the people? Do you really think that the country has no one? Huang Keqiang and Li Songqing are not good! At most they can be law-abiding division commanders, and they cannot even go to the battlefield. On the battlefield, they will definitely lose nine out of ten battles. And Sun Baixi,  In his prosperous days, he was a talented and scholarly scholar, but in troubled times, he would inevitably beg for food and starve to death on the street. Now he can hold the position of Prime Minister of the Cabinet, except for the shadow of his ancestors, it is a pure luck!

    "Although I admit that I am not as good as the Qin Emperor, Han Wu, Tang Zong and Song Zu, etc., I am confident that I can be slightly better than the above-mentioned people, so I do my best! But the Kuomintang and the New China Party think that I am fighting for power and gain, and in the Congress and the Cabinet  There are constraints everywhere, and I can't bear it anymore, so I intimidate the Congress and besiege the New China Party. Those who know me say that I am worried, but those who don't know me say what do I want! I am not boasting. If you give me a few years, I will definitely be able toThe first step is to flatten the separatist regimes and unify all the provinces in the country, and then use our elite troops from the North to defeat the Japanese pirates in the east, capture the Kulun in the north, expel Tsarist Russia, challenge the British and Germans, and give China a bright future!  "

    These words made Tang Tianxi's blood boil and his heart tremble, and he replied loudly: "Others don't understand the Marshal's good intentions, but Yunting understands! Yunting is willing to follow the Marshal and do his best to serve as a dog and horse.  It¡¯s hard work!¡±

    Yuan Shikai also replied with emotion: "As long as Yunting does not fail Yuan, Yuan will never fail Yunting in this life!"

    ¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª

    Although Tang Tianxi often stays in the Presidential Palace, how to make power calls and release news is still a big girl getting on the sedan chair - this is the first time!  Even with the assistance of other secretaries of the Presidential Palace, it took two or three hours to deliver all the contents Yuan Shikai gave and the considerable transportation expenses to the reporters and newspapers that were supposed to be delivered. However, the specific results will have to wait until tomorrow.  Know.

    Because of this, Tang Tianxi is also fully aware of Sun Yuanqi's technical advantages.

    For example, now, Tang Tianxi has only two ways to publish a piece of news. One is to ask a newspaper to publish the news. Not to mention newspapers with longer cycles such as weekly, ten-day and monthly newspapers. Even if the newspaper directly related to it agrees to publish the news, from then on  From receiving news content to plate making, printing, distribution, and delivery, it doesn¡¯t take even half a day!  The other is to reach the whole country, similar to the current mass text messaging on mobile phones.

    It is said that the people of the Republic of China have a special love for electricity. They need electricity when they are on stage, they need electricity when they are out of office, they need electricity for commendations, they need electricity for condemnation, they need electricity for crusade, they need electricity for peace talks, and even when students rise up for demonstrations and teachers are owed wages, electricity needs to be provided throughout the country.  .  However, there are two disadvantages to electrification. One is that it is expensive. Just sending out one electrification costs hundreds of dollars!  Well, as long as the whole country can be informed quickly, the presidential palace is not short of money.  But who has the luxury to install a radio to listen to the nationwide broadcast?  This is the second characteristic, the audience is too narrow.

    The China Broadcasting Corporation, controlled by Sun Yuanqi, is the only radio station in China. It usually broadcasts news without any tendency, but at critical moments, every news it broadcasts has been carefully reviewed to ensure that it is beneficial to Sun Yuanqi and Xin.  The public opinion guidance of the Chinese Communist Party.  Of course, in addition to the tendency, the most important thing is the timeliness of the broadcast.  After receiving the news content and reviewing it briefly, it can be broadcast on a rolling basis in more than ten or twenty minutes, and then the whole country will know it.  By the time the Beiyang Department turned on electricity and newspapers published the news, the day lilies were already cold!

    Fortunately, radios are relatively expensive now and have not yet spread to thousands of households. But can this amount of money be compared with installing a telegraph machine and hiring a few round-the-clock translators and dispatchers?  What's more, a radio can be easily carried with batteries. Is a telegraph so convenient?  The upper class pays attention to the taste of life and never lacks that little money, so radios quickly become the standard equipment in the homes and offices of the upper class, and have a tendency to gradually spread to the middle class.

    Precisely because it was not easy to send out calls and release information, Tang Tianxi simply combined the two things Yuan Shikai told about framing Zhao Bingjun, disbanding the Kuomintang and expelling the Kuomintang into one, and made them all public.  When he thought about it, the congressmen had already started filling out the ballots when he left Congress. It had been more than four hours now, so it was time for the election results to be announced, right?  Why wait and waste so much time later!

    After finishing these things, he hurried to the Congress and prepared to collect the certificates and badges of the Kuomintang members.  Unexpectedly, as soon as he reached the halfway point, he encountered soldiers under his command who were wearing makeup and surrounding the Congress. Tang Tianxi quickly rolled off his saddle and stopped him and asked: "Why did you withdraw? Who gave the order?"

    ¡°Reporting to the brigade commander, it was Secretary-General Ruan who ordered us to retreat!¡± the leading battalion commander replied.

    "What's going on with the Congress? Has a president been elected?" Tang Tianxi asked again.

    The battalion commander replied: "The National Assembly has lifted martial law in accordance with Secretary-General Ruan's order, and the members have dispersed. As for the election of the president, there should be no results, right? Since you left, Brigadier General, Secretary-General Ruan  He ordered us to temporarily withdraw from the venue and wait for further news. There were rumors just now that Mr. Zhao Zhi'an died of a sudden illness at home. Secretary-General Ruan immediately ordered us to lift martial law and release all the members. The election of the president naturally ended in vain.  "

    "What? Why did Ruan Douzhan issue such an order? Where is Ruan Douzhan now?" Tang Tian was so angry that he almost jumped up and cursed, but no one at the scene could answer this question.

    Perhaps only Ruan Zhongshu himself knows the reason: he played the role of an accomplice in Zhao Bingjun¡¯s murder of Liang Shiyi.  Now that Zhao Bingjun has been executed, he himself may not escape death!  After weighing the pros and cons, Ruan Zhongshu decided to make a good deal with the New China Party and leave a way for himself to survive in the future.  After releasing all the members of the National Assembly, Ruan Trung Shu also fled.

    Tang Tianxi knew that now was not the time to get angry, so he immediately ordered: "Go back quickly, if you encounter someone on the wayBring all the members there too!  "

    In fact, even Tang Tianxi himself knew that this move was completely in vain, because the congressmen looked no different from ordinary people. How could the soldiers tell them apart?  What's more, the members of the New China Party are all picked up by cars. So much time has passed. How can it be possible to catch up with the more than 300 members with the legs of soldiers?  (To be continued)

    ps: I sincerely ask you to appreciate me and receive the light of my great god!  Greatful!
