Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
Zeng Shaowen's plan was good, but he forgot a premise, that is, my patrol police in the Qing Dynasty, but Tianjin was the first to do it, and the two patrol police bureaus in the north and south sections of Tianjin added up to nearly 3,000 patrol police. When Fang Junying and Zeng Shaowen discussed a few times, the Tianjin Patrol Police Bureau began to be lively, and after receiving the news that the visiting team is now a revolutionary party, all the adults immediately got up, Zhao Bingjun, who was already the right attendant of the Manchu Patrol Police Department, Duan Zhigui, the general office of the General Office of the Southern Section Patrol Police, Liu Jinbiao, the general office of the Northern Section Patrol Bureau, and Yang Yide, the head of the visiting team, all hurriedly got together and discussed secretly overnight.
"Is the news true?" Zhao Bingjun, who has been promoted to the right attendant of the Daqing Police Department, asked. He turned out to be the general office of the General Bureau of the Southern Section Patrol Police, as soon as the bomb in Beijing went off, he took the Tianjin patrol police and the visiting team into Beijing, and the shit luck showed up the revolutionary party, killed two people and arrested one person, the explosion case was solved, plus Prince Su and Yuan Daren security, immediately became the right squire, this official promotion made the entire Tianjin patrol police red-eyed, it turned out that the arrest of prisoners is also high, the quality can not go up, no matter how hard you work is a bar, if you can catch the revolutionary party, it will be terrible.
"Lord Bing, I can't see it too clearly at night, but these three women and one man must be the revolutionaries who escaped last time. If it is to be safe, it is better to check ...... tomorrow" Yang Yide of the visiting team said, Zhao Bingjun was promoted, he is not bad, the visiting team is about to be changed to the Visiting Bureau, and the director has already decided that it is him. Although he killed the revolutionary party last time, he found out that there were not only this couple in the Yongzhen photographer, but also three women and a man. There are items with Japanese logos in the pockets of women's clothes, which are linked to the new establishment of the Tokyo Revolutionary Party League some time ago, and Yang Yide, these revolutionary parties are all from Japan, that is, they are from Japan, and they must have come ashore from Tanggu, Tianjin. As a result, the Tianjin visiting team stayed at the Tanggu wharf day and night, keeping an eye on the Japanese ship.
"But these revolutionary parties are all in the concession, even if they are verified, I am afraid it will be difficult to catch them." Duan Zhigui said. After Zhao Bingjun was transferred, he took this position with his hard work, and he also hoped that he could ascend to heaven with a case.
"Either send plainclothes to go in and arrest people, and after they are arrested, they will be carried out directly in a sedan chair." It was Liu Jinbiao who spoke, although he was in charge of the North District. I also want to contribute to the prosperity and stability of the Qing Dynasty.
"No way!" Zhao Bingjun said resolutely, the leopards want to be promoted, they want to go crazy, once they don't stop it, he is responsible for leadership. "Once something happens in the concession and the foreigners protest, it will be terrible."
The leader makes a decision, and the following dare not follow. But what should I do, looking at everyone's inquiring eyes, Zhao Bingjun said: "We still have to ask Lord Yuan first......" As soon as these words came out, Duan Zhigui admired a few times, yes, why did he only think of arresting people, why did he forget about adults, no wonder he couldn't be promoted. didn't care about everyone's expressions, Zhao Bingjun continued: "Then the visiting team will send more people to monitor those revolutionary parties. Don't run away! The General Administration of the southern and northern sections has strengthened its vigilance, and the river patrol team has stopped patrolling the river in the past few days, and is waiting near the concession. ā
"Yes! My lord! Duan Zhigui did not hesitate to salute the Tianjin police.
In the early morning of the next day, Chen Guangshou had just told Yang Rui about today's itinerary -- after going to the Tianjin Law and Politics School in Hebei District to give a lecture, he saw Ye Yunbiao coming in from outside as soon as he came out. He had just gone outside to find a secluded place to practice boxing.
"Doesn't seem right out there?" Ye Yunbiao said to Chen Guangshou.
"What......" Chen Guangshou startled himself as soon as he spoke, and hurriedly pulled Ye Yunbiao to another room, and asked, "What's wrong outside?" ā
"There are a lot of people out there, and many of them are practitioners."
"Lianjiazi?"
"Yes, you can tell by the way you walk?"
"Do you have braids? Isn't it a concession patrol? ā
"I have braids, I'm afraid it's not a concession patrol."
"That's the Tianjin Patrol Police's visiting team." Chen Guangshou said that Yang Rui needs to collect information from all over the place, and he is afraid that he will be deceived if he is not familiar with life. "We are in the concession, not afraid for the time being. Go back. ā
After Ye Yunbiao left, Chen Guangshou thought about it again and again, and called Liu Dayong, who was born in Zhili, in the guards, "Go out to find your former brother, and inquire about what the visiting team is doing, why are they gathered in the British Concession?" With that, she threw a bag of ocean to him.
"Yes! Captain. "Liu Dayong was messing around in Tianjin earlier, and later offended the enemy and had to go away.
After all, Liu Dayong was a local mixture, and he came back within three hours of going out, and he returned the rest of the money to Chen Guangshou, and said: "I heard that last night, a few thieves arrived in the concession, and the patrol police station was very anxious. ā
"Thieves? Last night? Chen Guangshou said.
"Yes, company commander. The brother I inquired about was squatting at the Tanggu wharf last night, and as soon as these people got off the boat, the letter was transmitted to the General Bureau, and they did so after discussing it overnight. "Liu Dayong's brother is completely truthful, but his brother's level is too low, and he didn't tell him the truth from above, only said that he was a thief, not a revolutionary party.
"Okay, you've worked hard, go rest first. I'll take a few brothers out for a while, you're a local, familiar. Chen Guangshou commanded. After explaining here, Chen Guangshou was thinking about Yang Rui's speech again, although the target of the patrol police was not his own people, but if it was ......
"There's a thief?" In order to give a speech, Yang Rui's first news after waking up early was that the Tianjin patrol police were monitoring the thieves living next door to him.
"The patrol said there were big thieves, but they didn't look like those people." Chen Guangshou sent someone to look next door before, only to see three women and two men, both very young, and they didn't see any arrogance.
"Is that spying on us under the pretext of spying on them?" Yang Rui's clothes stopped when he heard the words, and he only felt that things were very strange.
"It's not! It's true that they are watching next door, and our people go out with no one to follow, but they are different. Chen Guangshou was also very strange, but after several investigations, the other party was indeed not interested in him.
"That's good." Yang Rui said. "After the lecture in the afternoon, we will go to Shanghai in the evening. Do you have a ferry ticket to see if there is one for tonight? Don't get on the boat from Tanggu. If you want to get on the ship from the purple bamboo forest, you want a foreign ship, and you don't want to go to China Merchants. ā
"Yes. Mr! Chen Guangshou said, after he went out, after the matter was arranged, he told the guy who would go out later. All matters of retreat must be done now, and it is always possible to be prepared.
At the time of Gengzi, the foreigners came ashore from Tianjin, occupied the city of Tianjin, and afterwards divided the concession on a large scale to seize the favorable position on both sides of the Haihe River. The old station of Tianjin was originally outside the concession, but now it is surrounded by the concessions of Russia, Austria and Italy. After Yuan Shikai, the governor of Zhili, took office. Getting off the train from the old station could not put on a show -- as usual, the governor had to have an honor guard and three cannons to greet and see off, but the railway station was in the concession, and the foreigners did not give face, and guns and artillery were not allowed to enter, and under the prestige, Yuan Shikai was furious and set up Tianjin North Railway Station. Again I thought that the good lot was occupied by foreigners. Tianjin Chengxiang has no room for exhibition, and vigorously develop the Haihe Hebei District, spend 35 taels to rebuild the Jingang Bridge, and move many yamen here, and encourage the gentry to run schools and factories here, when the Tianjin Law and Political School was opened, received a lot of support. Not only is the land price extremely cheap, but there are also some 100 taels of subsidies available every year.
On the way to Tianjin Fazheng, Bai Yayu introduced to Yang Rui all kinds of things about the establishment of the school, and listened to him, this Yuan Shikai is really a capable person, with first-class skills, and he will be revolutionary in the future, which is a big enemy. Just thinking about it, as soon as the carriage turned, there was the main gate of Tianjin Fazheng in front of him. Yang Rui didn't gallop in the carriage. Instead, the car was parked at the school gate, and he felt that he should walk in.
Perhaps it is influenced by Tongji University Hall, or perhaps it is different from Tongji University Hall, the gate of Tianjin Law and Politics School is not a Western-style gatehouse, but a Chinese-style stone archway. The six big characters of "Tianjin Political Science and Law School" above are written in small seals, which are simple and elegant. After the archway, it is wide but only half a person high gate, and then a straight road, the road is not long, at the end is a T-junction, the road is a square again, there is a statue on the square, Yang Rui is curious who Cai Yuanpei will choose to stand there, and when he walks in, it is Mozi. The statue does not have a crown and a dignified appearance like the one in Tongji University Hall, but looks a little ragged, with straw sandals, bamboo canes, carrying bags and hats, and staring into the distance with firm and compassionate eyes, not like a learned wise man, but like a traveler in a hurry.
The statue was carved into a fascination, Yang Rui couldn't help nodding, Mozi had despised the powerful all his life, and only ran for the toiling masses, and the School of Law and Politics set him up here, which was very deserved!
Bai Yayu saw Yang Rui nodding and said: "As soon as this statue is erected, Lord Yuan will be unhappy, and the sour Confucians everywhere are also clamoring to pull him, saying that they want to change the image of Confucius, otherwise it will be a big rebellion." "At the beginning, Tianjin Fazheng School was very popular with the gentry, but as soon as the statue came out, it was immediately different.
"This is a school, not officialdom. And those scholars, don't they still know that Confucianism is completely outdated? Alas, it seems that the atmosphere in Tianjin is completely incomparable with that in Shanghai. ā
"That's true, the girls' public school next door was also talked about by those old people when it was first opened, and then Lord Yuan personally came forward to suppress the trend." Bai Yayu said that when it comes to women's public school, her scalp is a little numb, many courses in the political and legal school are original, such as sociology, management psychology, organizational behavior, etc., a female chief teacher of the women's public school heard about it, and saw that the hunting heart was happy, and the teacher of the law and politics school also went to the women's public school to start classes, but these courses only allowed internal teaching, never outflow, Bai Yayu did not agree, a female chief teacher often brought students to listen to the class, which made the law and politics school co-educational school, and public opinion was in an uproar.
Seeing that Bai Yayu was a little unnatural, Yang Rui asked with concern, "Brother Yayu, is there something wrong?" ā
"It's okay, it's okay. Let's go this way. Bai Yayu hurriedly said, took Yang Rui across the square, bypassed the library, and went straight to the auditorium behind.
It was four o'clock in the afternoon, when Yang Rui walked on the podium, the auditorium was already full of students, including not only boys, but also girls.
"The theme of today's speech is constitutionalism, but if we want to talk about constitutionalism, we need to start from other places, that is, politics, economy, and culture. Before China, it was a feudal era, the government was the supremacy of imperial power, the economy was self-sufficient, and culture was the Confucian set of benevolence, righteousness and morality. In addition, people of insight in the competition continue to realize that the original set of things has decayed, and if it is not changed, it cannot even be compared with a small country like Japan, and what is now called constitutionalism is a kind of transformation.
Does Constitutionalism Work? It may seem like it will succeed, and it sounds useful, but the British constitution is the result of hundreds of years. France has had five revolutions, the United States has been full of European immigrants, everyone has left their homeland, Germany is a new country, it is new, and Japan next to us. His constitution was more centralized than constitutional, and in Japan, during the Tokugawa shogunate, there were 260 daimyo in the whole country, and now, there is only one regime left. On the other hand, we are in China. Although there is a central court, can this court control the locality?
Is the current constitution a constitution for the sake of saving the country, or a constitution for the sake of fighting for power? What is the difference between the people who came to power after the constitution and the people who ruled before them? Who is shouting for the constitution, and who will benefit after the constitution is established? Is it a toiling people? Apparently not. After the constitution, it must be the gentry and the old men who came to power, and there were so many corrupt officials who were supported under the ** before, and now they have changed a group of people, continue to be greedy, and then change another batch, and then be greedy, endlessly. In fact, the people are the most reluctant to let the corrupt officials go, and they finally fed one, and if they go away like this, they will be fed in vain.
This government is rotten to the bone, corrupt at home and flattering to the outside. And these gentry from the old culture inevitably have such a habit, wearing official robes is an official of the court, and taking off their official robes as elected parliamentarians, what is the difference? We are now in China. In addition to officialdom, society is also **, whether these people are officials or parliamentarians, they are all the same......"
In the context of that time, Yang Rui's speech was completely anti-social and anti-human. When he finished his speech and allowed the students to ask questions, a group of people raised their hands to ask questions, and he randomly selected a student, and the student was so angry that he stammered: "Constitutional...... **,...... There is no country in the world that is not constitutional...... Rich and strong ......"
What he said was too urgent, and Yang Rui didn't hear it clearly, but he could probably guess what he meant, first, that constitutionalism is a kind of progress for **, and second, that only constitutionalism can strengthen the country. Seeing that it was the first time that so many people objected, Yang Rui was not only not angry, but happy, he let the four students sitting in the front row come to the stage, and then said: "Suppose this auditorium is a country now, suppose I am a dictator, everyone says this is **, right?" ā
Seeing everyone nodding, Yang Rui said again: "Then I will give this right to the four of them, may I ask if this is **?" ā
This question is no different from the previous one, the student still thinks that this is still **, Yang Rui smiled: "Which one do you choose ** or four people**?" ā
The students were puzzled, and one student shouted, "Why are there only four people, more people should be on stage?" ā
I knew that someone would ask this, Yang Rui smiled and said: "This classmate, the reason why I only let four students come to the stage is because China's literacy rate is only 4 per 1,000. ā
The students below were in an uproar, and Yang Rui struck while the iron was hot and said: "After the constitution is established, we must run schools, factories, and railways...... Anything you have to do is paid for by you, these illiterate people in the audience, and the reason why you are illiterate is because you are poor and can't afford to read, so how can you have the spare money to build railways and set up factories? And these four rich people on the stage who can afford to read, they don't want to pay a penny for the constitution, they can make money instead, and in the end, they are using the money of you poor people to run a new deal, and even more with the money of you poor people to feed the four of them, what is the constitution, this is the constitution! ā
After Yang Rui finished speaking, the discussion just now stopped, many things are not real, it is not intuitive, standing under the stage from a distance, only to see that Yang Rui's tall figure and the four students next to him are no different in size, and I feel that there is no difference between one person ruling and four people, silent for a while, just when Yang Rui was about to step down, thunderous applause sounded in the auditorium, although Yang Rui's words were contrary to the ear, but it did make sense, especially those students from poor families very agreed - since Gengzi, in order to pay reparations and run new policies, the more the government pays taxes, the more hateful, but this tax is apportioned to the people, the gentry is not much, but can earn, if they are really allowed to come to power, I am afraid that the poor will have no way to live.
When Yang Rui stepped down from the stage and was at the back break, he said that someone was visiting, and he thought it was a student, but when he came in, it was a luxuriously dressed and trendy young woman, Bai Yayu was about to introduce, and the woman herself said: "I am Lu Bicheng." It is the chief teacher of the girls' public school next to it, and I have come to ask for advice after listening to Mr. Lecture. ā
It turned out that she was Lu Bicheng, Yang Rui seemed to have read this woman in a novel, and the book seemed to say that she was beautiful. However, Yang Rui has no beauty, except for those bright eyes. Hearing that she came to ask for advice instead of proposing, Yang Rui smiled: "Don't dare to be, don't dare to be, can only be said to be discussing." He laughed and said. You may also be seated. ā
Lu Bicheng couldn't understand why Yang Rui was smiling, and he was not polite, he sat down and said without waiting for tea: "Mr. Politics, economy, and culture are very philosophical, but the constitution is more progressive than **," Speaking of this, she seemed to think of Yang Rui's real yĆ n. "Even if at the beginning, only four people will go on stage, but in the end, when the people see that they can only go on stage by studying, then they will go to study, and eventually there will be more and more people on stage." ā
It turned out to be fault-finding, Yang Rui said in his heart. "Sir's right, but three more points. Now that the Manchurians are unwilling to hand over their power and refuse to change from ** to constitutional, will these four people let others come to power and share their rights in the future? This is number one; Second, for example, in Tianjin, there is only one Haihe River, and on both sides of the river is good land, and like the Beijing-Tianjin Railway, there is only this one, and then there is arable land. There are only 110,000 acres in the country, and the industries that make money are limited. Third, there are a lot of them. Let's just talk about Japan, which has only been on this scale for nearly 40 years since the Meiji era, but how many years will it take for China to do so? You said that all the people go to study and can come to power in the end, but how long will it take for this to end? In this process, will foreigners watch from the side? Now that Japan and Russia are in the northeast, they want to get involved in Mongolia even more, and by the end of what you said, China will have already perished. ā
"But now the imperial court has sent ministers abroad to inspect the constitution." Among Yang Rui's three articles, the best refutation is this one, Lu Bicheng is actually still the deputy editor-in-chief of Ta Kung Pao, and he has fallen in love with the newspaper owner Yingzhi, and his position is completely constitutional reform. "Besides, although you can use power to take the lead, but China is so big, there are many sources of profit, as long as you are not lazy, food and clothing are also worry-free, as for the interference of foreigners, there are 40,000 compatriots united, how can China perish?"
Lu Bicheng's words were sharper than those of this era, but Yang Rui still didn't hear anything unique, he said: "The first day is undefeated, there is no Wuxu; Gengzi is not out, there is no new deal, and now the Russo-Japanese war has given birth to a constitution, I really don't see anything that this court took the initiative to do, and people who have enjoyed power for a long time will not take the initiative to let go of power; As for what you said, there are so many sources of profit, China is so big, a thousand people are frugal and frugal, just to make these four people rich, and then they become factory owners, and hire themselves to make cattle and horses, why bother? And what you said in the end that 40,000,000 people are united, which is equivalent to nonsense, the truth is only within the range of artillery, the reason why China is not divided today is not because we are united, but because foreigners contain each other, the Three Kingdoms are still like this in the first afternoon, this is the case in the year of Gengzi, and the same is true of the just-concluded Russo-Japanese War, what is the use of the unity of 40,000 compatriots? Oh, by the way, I forgot to say it, where there is money in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, there is also mutual insurance in the southeast when Gengzi. Hehe, once the foreigners go to war, the first to run are the rich, that is, the people who are now shouting for the constitution, but the toiling people, who are poor and white, have nothing to run. ā
Yang Rui's criticism was sharp, and Lu Bicheng was angry, and said: "What does Mr. think of me as China?" ā
"Revolution!"
"Revolution?"
"Yes, revolution!"
"Oh......" Lu Bicheng laughed, with a strange expression.
Yang Rui saw him like this, and said: "Did I say that I want revolution, so I let you find an excuse that you should be constitutional?" Whatever the enemy opposes, that's what we should do. ā
Lu Bicheng didn't answer, but said, "Last year, a revolutionary Mr. Qiu came to Tianjin to meet with me, and Bicheng could introduce her to Mr. ā
"Mr. Qiu?"
"It is Mr. Qiu Jingxiong, a native of Shaoxing, Zhejiang, who also holds the revolutionary theory, before she went to Japan to study, she came to Tianjin to argue with me for a night, and Mr. should be like-minded with her."
Yang Rui still didn't understand who this Qiu Jingxiong was, but if he could argue with her all night, he should be a woman, plus he was from Shaoxing and studied in Japan, so he couldn't help but think of Qiu Jin. In fact, in Yang Rui's heart, he is very conflicted about people like Qiu Jin, Chen Tianhua, and Wu Yue, on the one hand, he admires them, but on the other hand, he feels that they are too strong and will be detrimental to the revolution, all he can do now is to hope that they will not die.
"Mr. Lu misunderstood, Mr. Qiu and I are not exactly like-minded." Yang Rui said.
"What? Isn't the gentleman a revolutionary party, and doesn't it take it as his duty to fill the platoon? ā
"If the revolution is just full, it is not too superficial. The Manchurians should be killed, and some Han people should also be killed. ** It was for the well-being of the Manchus, the constitution was for the well-being of the gentry, and the revolution was for the well-being of the toiling masses. Mr. Lu is the chief teacher of the women's public school, and he must have a lot of influence among the gentry, as the so-called butt decides the position, and it is reasonable to advocate constitutionalism. I don't have much more to say. ā
Yang Rui said that he served tea and sent off the guests, and Lu Bicheng had to get up, but she asked, "Haven't you asked Mr. for his name yet?" I was afraid that Yang Rui would be taboo, so I said again: "Bicheng is a person, please rest assured." ā
Yang Rui was actually not afraid, but he didn't want to bother Bai Yayu and the others, so he got up and arched his hand: "It's better to introduce myself next time we meet." Mr. Lu does not send it. ā
