The huge map of China was pasted on the wall, Zhang Jun on one side of the map was thinking about a place, Jiang Fangzhen on the other side painted a specific color on the map, and Liang Qichao looked at the two disciples and was silent.

“…… Tonghua County, Andong County, Hengren County, Ji'an County, Benxi County, Fengcheng County," Zhang Junli was very attentive with the telegram sent from China, for fear of mispronouncing it, "Xingjing was originally there, but Xingjing was the location of the ancestral tomb of the former Qing Dynasty, so Yang Jingcheng handed it over to Hou Zaitao of Shunyi to manage." In this way, there are a total of eight counties, which is the fief of Yang Jingcheng.

Xiuyan County, Gaiping County, Zhuanghe County, Fu County, and Kandong Prefecture, a total of five counties, this is the fief of the deceased Yu Hanzhang, inherited by his eldest son Yu Heyu; Suizhong County, Xingcheng County, Jinxi County, Yi County, Beizhen County, Panshan County, a total of six counties, this is the fief of Zhang Taiyan; Zhangwu County, Xinmin County, Heishan County, Tai'an County, Liaozhong County, Faku County, Kangping County, Tieling County, a total of eight counties, are the fiefdoms of Wang Jitong; Yingkou County, Haicheng County, Liaoyang County, Shenyang Provincial Capital, Fushun County, a total of four counties and one city, are the fiefdoms of Xu Huafeng;

Changtu County, Lishu County, Liaoyuan County, Huaide County, Shuangshan County, a total of five counties, are Cai Yuanpei's fiefdoms; Kaiyuan County, Xifeng County, Dongfeng County, Xi'an County, Hailong County, Huinan County, Liuhe County, this is the fief of Xie Zhangtai; Jinchuan County, Linjiang County, Changbai County, Fusong County, Antu County, a total of five counties, for William. The fiefdom of Leo, led by his orphan daughter Rebecca. William inherited.

This is the fiefdom of the founding eight major princes, which are basically all in Liaodong Province. The rest of the county dukes, county marquis, county uncles, county sons, county men, etc., are sealed in Rehe, Jilin, Heilongjiang, the Outer Northeast, and the Western Regions, ......, yes. The Black Blind Island was also given to Yang Jingcheng, who said where he was going to fish. ”

Zhang Jun thought about it here, and turned his head to look at Liang Qichao. It was extremely funny, and he couldn't tell if it was shameless or shameless. In the past, he always thought that Yang Jingcheng was selfless, but now he is divided into feuds, and he actually forcibly occupies a large island for fishing, which is larger than a province in France.

Tang Hualong, the former No. 2 figure of the Constitutional Protector Party of "Ren Gong......", looked at Liang Qichao and was surprised at his impassivity, "It is really shameless that the revival will turn the public into private and swallow the national wealth in this way!" I should write an article to refute it! ”

"Has the former Ming Sect been divided?" Liang Qichao didn't hear Tang Hualong's words. Only the next question was asked.

"Only the two uncles of King Min were sealed, both of them were at the level of the house, and they said that they had military merits against Russia and Japan, one was sealed in Chengde Mansion and the other was sealed in ......, oh, it is already in the Guannei, sealed in Xuanhua Mansion." Zhang Junli looked at the telegram carefully and replied.

"Teacher, there's a guy outside who claims to be an old friend from Tokyo asking to see me." Outside students enter the report through the inside.

"Old Friends ...... Tokyo" Liang Qichao was only shocked, but it was clear after a while. Tang Hualong next to him didn't understand his thoughts. At the moment, he pondered: "Old friend of Tokyo, who is this old friend of Tokyo?" ”

"Who else can it be," Liang Qichao was a little disdainful, "who else can there be besides Sun Yat-sen Sun Cannon of the Chinese Revolutionary Party." He said to the students, "No! When you go out, say I'm not there......"

"Haha......" Sun Wen's laughter came from outside. He obviously heard Liang Qichao's order to 'not see', but he was not dissatisfied. "Zhuoru, although we have different political views. I have known each other for decades, and there is no reason not to see it. ”

With hearty laughter. Sun Wen walked into the editorial office of the Free Newspaper without permission and followed the voice. When he saw Liang Qichao, he quickly came up to shake hands, and that enthusiasm suddenly wiped out Liang Qichao's original coldness. Liang Qichao is also a politician, it's okay not to meet, but if he does, he has to shake hands with Sun Wen, but his face is still gloomy - he thinks of Cai Songpo.

"I have long heard that Zhuo Ru has opened another world in Paris, and today I saw it unexpectedly...... all of these are all talented and handsome, which is really enviable!" Sun Wen grabbed Liang Qichao's hand and shook it vigorously, but his eyes looked at Tang Hualong, Zhang Junli, Jiang Fangzhen, Liu Chongjie and others, and then saw the map marked on the wall, he put down Liang Qichao's hand and said fiercely: "Yang Jingcheng is not only autocratic, but today he has become a national thief and steals fiefdoms, which is unbearable!" Zhuoru, our two parties must unite ......"

Sun Wen looked at the people around Liang Qichao, and Liang Qichao also looked at the entourage behind Sun Wen. The most beautiful is a woman, this should be Sun Wen's new wife, and then the famous Chen Qimei, and he doesn't know a few more, he only saw that those people were bulging around their waists, and they were not easy to mess with at first glance.

Taking advantage of Sun Wen's words, Liang Qichao, who didn't want to have a deep friendship with Sun Wen, let alone unite with him, immediately interrupted: "Yixian, what are we united for?" Overthrew the government of Greater China and killed Yang Jingcheng? ”

"Exactly!" A hint of fierceness flashed in Sun Wen's eyes, "Now this country has completely become the private property of Yang Jingcheng and others, they are not tyrannical and enslaved enough, and they still implement feudalization!" This is backward! It's a step backwards in history! It's unforgivable!! The country has evolved into the fish and meat of the Renaissance Society, and they usually eat it in a pot, but now they are still slicing the land into their own bowl so that their children and grandchildren can enjoy it for all generations. We must overthrow such a government! We must kill Yang Jingcheng! ……”

"Ahem... cough cough cough cough ......" Sun Wen roared as he spoke, the Liberty Newspaper seemed to be the scene of his speech, but he was old after all. After the beginning of spring, when he heard that the Chinese Prosecutor's Court had really approved the partition bill, he ran to Europe to find support, and the saddle horse was inevitably tired, and Paris at the turn of spring and summer was cold and warm, and he caught a cold.

Under the woman's patting, Sun Wen took a sip of tea to relieve his breath, and Liang Qichao was not shocked or angry when he spoke. Seeing that he was no longer coughing at this time, Fang Cai sneered: "Suppose Yatsen overthrows the current government, what will he do next?" ”

"What else can I do?" Sun Wen was no longer as excited as he was just now, but the green tendons in his hands still flared up, and he said: "In the future, it will no longer be called the Great China Kingdom, but the Republic of China, which is the Republic of China, is 40,000 ......."

"It's not 40,000 anymore, according to the statistics of the Ministry of Households, the Chinese population has exceeded 50,000." Liang Qichao interrupted rudely.

"Good. That's 50,000! Sun Wen knew that Liang Qichao was still rejecting himself, but in order to convince him. He had to hold on. "The nation is a nation of 50,000,000 people, and there is no longer any privilege. What aristocracy, every citizen is equal, free, democratic ......"

"Hahahaha...... "It's funny to hear something funny, Liang Qichao suddenly couldn't stop laughing, this is not a fake smile like singing, but a real laugh, so that the tears of laughter came out. He laughed like this, Sun Wen's original enthusiasm and amusement were poured with a basin of snow water on his head, and his face turned blue. Fortunately, he came all the way to ask to see him, although the host was rude. He could only endure it, and only after Liang Qichao finished laughing did he ask, "Why is Zhuo Ru laughing?" ”

"Why am I laughing?" Liang Qichao shook his head slowly, and then let out a long sigh, he said: "I laugh at Yixian's obsession and lifelong pursuit of democracy, but I swallowed dates, only read a few crooked books in the British Library, and then put them together at will. I think I have found the true meaning of democracy, but in fact? As before me, there is no democracy at all about what freedom is! ”

Liang Qichao's criticism made Sun Wen very embarrassed, and Song Qingling, who had been sitting beside her husband silently, couldn't help but say, "Then please ask Mr. Zhuoru." What is the true meaning of democracy, and what were your previous strengths and mistakes? Isn't democracy by the people, by the people, and for the people? ”

"Hehe......" glanced at the woman, Liang Qichao said, "Then may I ask Mrs. Sun." How can it be owned by the people? Can the people govern? Can it be enjoyed by the people? ”

Women's politics are indeed inferior to men's, listen to Liang Qichao's rhetorical question. Song Qingling said: "Of course, it is to formulate a constitution that is recognized by everyone, and then strictly implement it in accordance with the constitution. Only in this way can we implement the people's ownership, the people's governance, and the people's enjoyment. ”

"So what's wrong with the constitution of Greater China now? Although it is not as good as the universal suffrage system in the United States, it is much more restrictive than the electorate in European countries. Why is a constitution that can't be faulted by Yat-sen and your party as autocratic? Liang Qichao asked again, and when Sun Wen wanted to answer, he continued to ask: "Then there is Soviet Russia, then Li Ning also said that Russia is democratic, as long as all the workers can vote and run, but the result is a naked dictatorship, how can this be explained?" ”

Sun Wen knew China, so he could refute the former question, but he could not answer the latter - no one said that Soviet Russia was not authoritarian and dictatorial, especially since the Shanghai Film Company made a film about the uprising of the sailors in Langstadt. The film company did not know how to find a few survivors of the uprising, and used the memories of these people to tell the story of the revolution that took place in Russia in the years from the February Revolution to the Sailors' Uprising. The film portrays all kinds of characters vividly, and the brutal autocracy of Soviet Russia also shocked the world, and it was sought after by various countries as soon as it was launched, and swept the world in a very short time, so great that the Soviet Russian government frequently sent diplomatic notes to protest.

Sun Wen replied: "This is caused by the lack of democratic qualities of the people of these two countries, if it were in the United States, this kind of thing would never happen, so Mr. Zhongshan's Three People's Principles require discipline and not discipline, elections are just a tool for dictators to manipulate, no matter how good the constitution is, China and Russia are examples." ”

didn't expect the woman to be so sharp-toothed, Liang Qichao looked at her again and then said: "Then may I ask, why doesn't the United States need to discipline the government?" How did the British constitutional democracy come about? ”

"The United States does not need to discipline because it is the New World, and since the arrival of the Mayflower, all the tyranny of the Old World has been eliminated from the New World by the predecessors, so there is democracy in the United States today." The former question is really easy to answer, but when answering the latter question, Song Qingling can't continue, because if she continues to answer, she will indirectly agree with Liang Qichao's point of view - her husband has pursued democracy all his life, but he doesn't know what democracy is after all.

"Mr. Zhuo Ru, no matter what the history is, Yang Jingcheng Group privately divided, this is the regression of history, it is to fill his pockets! This kind of behavior is not only not democratic, but also artificially creates inequality. It is important to know that all men are created equal, and the authoritarian government must be overthrown! Song Qingling no longer theorized, but spoke of revolutionary discourse.

"Yixian, please go back, we are different paths after all." Now that Sun Wen's woman knew what he meant, Liang Qichao didn't want to talk about it, he picked up the teacup and said very politely.

"Is Zhuo Ru really obsessed?" Sun Wen's history is not good, but he understands Liang Qichao's refusal very well.

"Yixian, it's not me who is obsessed, it's you who is obsessed. Yang Jingcheng could be said to be an autocratic dictatorship before, but from the moment the Inspectorate passed the partition bill, he was democratic. This is how the road to freedom and democracy in China has begun. You've been revolutionizing for decades, and now you've got nothing. The utilitarian heart makes you have to revolutionize and revolutionize, are you really for the democratic republic? I don't think so. You're just trying to be Washington for yourself......"

"Fart!!" Before Liang Qichao finished speaking, Sun Wen slammed his fist on the table and scolded. When he wanted to speak, Song Qingling next to him held him down.

Liang Qichao has no fear of this. He smiled and said, "Yixian, since you and I have different ideals, why not just be friends?" Why bother to be a revolutionary comrade? Isn't it that I don't agree, and you want me to bleed five steps today and die in Paris? ”

Under Song Qingling's comfort, Sun Wen's heavy breathing finally settled down, and he listened to Liang Qichao say this. And he said, "Even if it's a friend, it's a like-minded friend." ”

"Those who support your revolution are your friends, and those who do not support you, even if they do not oppose you, are your enemies? Isn't this too ......" Liang Qichao took another sip of tea, and then asked with a smile.

"Of course it has to be!" Sun Wen said hard, and his hand slammed on the table again, just trying his best to restrain himself. "Zhuoru, you must know that the democratic republic is the tide of history, those who go along with it prosper, and those who go against it perish!!"

"Haha......" Liang Qichao laughed again. Yat-sen's remark reminds me of the slogan of the Bolsheviks in the movie: All power belongs to the Soviets. Either a revolutionary party or a counter-revolutionary, either red or white, had no choice but to choose. Perhaps this is so natural in Yat-sen's eyes. But in my opinion, ......, I think it's better to go to Yang Jingcheng. He never said: Yang Jingcheng is a friend who agrees with me, and Yang Jingcheng who disagrees with me is an enemy. Those who follow it prosper. Those who do the opposite die, and there is no third way to choose. ”

'Bang ......', all the cups on the table were swept to the ground by Sun Wen, and the few people led by Chen Qimei next to him showed their short guns at some point, Sun Wen glared at Liang Qichao angrily and said: "Then I will ask you again, Zhuo Ru is our Sun Wen's friend, or my Sun Wen's enemy?" ”

I have always heard that the revolutionary party kills people like hemp, but this is the first time I have seen them show their guns, Tang Hualong, Zhang Junli, Jiang Fangzhen and others are all shocked, but Liang Qichao is not afraid of danger, he waved his hand to stop them, and then looked at Sun Wen and said with a smile: "You have the freedom of revolution, and I also have the freedom of non-revolution." If you want to kill, kill it, why bother talking nonsense! ”

"You!" Sun Wen's face was difficult to look at again, but Chen Qimei next to him said: "Sir, if you don't revolutionize, you are a counterrevolution!" ”

"Ince!" Song Qingling turned her head and glared at Chen Qimei, and then her hand was on Sun Wen's hand, and said, "Sir, everyone has their own ambitions, so there is no need to force them." Let's go. ”

Solemnly looked at Liang Qichao for a while, Sun Wen, who was about to pounce like a tiger, finally gave off his momentum, he stood up and said desolately: "The revolution is bad because everyone is not united." With people like Zhuo, a democratic republic will never be realized. ”

Although he pretended to be righteous and awe-inspiring, Liang Qichao's back was full of sweat, he didn't dare to stimulate Sun Wen at this time, nor did he want to speak out to beg for mercy to ease the atmosphere, so he just watched Sun Wen leave with hatred after speaking. The person waiting for the newspaper said that they had gone away, and he waved away the sentient beings, and collapsed in his chair as if he had taken the time, like a fish out of water, desperately panting.

Tang Hualong, who didn't leave, also wiped his sweat vigorously, he said: "Ren Gong, since we have been targeted by the revolutionary party, then we should quickly change places, if it doesn't work, we will return to China, anyway, Yang Jingcheng has never wanted us......"

"Fart!" Liang Qichao spat out a few breaths, but when he heard Tang Hualong be so brainless, he immediately spat out dirty words. "Don't talk about the money donated by the landlords of the Constitutional Protectorate Party in the past, it is this Liberty newspaper, who else will read it if it is not run in Paris? Paris, the capital of freedom! ”

"But what if they come again?" Tang Hualong was also stupid, the money of the Constitutional Protector Party was donated by the landlords at the beginning, and if he really wanted to return to China, he would have to be asked by the landlords, so he couldn't figure out how this account could not be calculated.

"Come again......" Liang Qichao was also worried about Sun Wen's return, especially Chen Qimei, a demon who kills people without blinking, he said, "Let's see if there is an empty room next to the embassy......"

"Embassy?" Tang Hualong didn't react for a while, and then said, "You mean the Chinese Embassy in France?" ”

"Of course, it's the Chinese Embassy in France, which embassy do you think it's it?" Liang Qichao said angrily.

"Then I'll do it right away." Tang Hualong said, but he went out and turned back, seeing Liang Qichao looking at him suspiciously, he was embarrassed for a while before he said, "Ren Gong just talked about the true meaning of democracy, but unfortunately Sun Yat-sen couldn't hear it." However, Ren Gong's thoughts are indeed too profound, and I don't understand them. I would like to ask Ren Gong: Why do you say that Yang Jingcheng was an authoritarian dictator before? After the passage of the partition bill, it was democratic, so why did the road to freedom and democracy in China start here? ”

Tang Hualong's legs trembled, obviously because he was worried that he would meet Chen Qimei and others when he went out. That's why he turned around -- he was right to do this, and it was in history that he was assassinated in the United States by the Chinese Revolutionary Party. What's even funnier is that after the assassination, the revolutionary party put the pot on other people's heads, saying that it was done by the authoritarian Yuan Shikai.

Regardless of the past life or future life, but what identity it is, the essence of the public knowledge artillery party has not changed. Tang Hualong didn't dare to go out, and Liang Qichao, who also didn't dare to go out, didn't say anything, he saw Tang Hualong asking for advice, and suddenly regained a lot of self-confidence, and his body sat up straight again. After instructing the students to change the tea, he said calmly: "Jiwu." A lot of things have to be seen the other way around. For example, in the previous land reform, we completely pinned our hopes on the Tingwei Mansion and Dali Temple, but the result told us that the law had no effect in the face of the gun. But now, the customs outside the country was divided into the meritorious group of the Fuxing Association, you said that one day the Kuomintang Song Dunchu came to power, he assumed that land reform would also be carried out, what do you think the result will be? ”

"Song Dunchu also reformed land?" Tang Hualong thought about Liang Qichao's train of thought, and immediately said: "According to the sealing bill." The fiefdom has a private army, and it is definitely not possible to do it like Yang Jingcheng in the past. Let's not talk about whether this land reform bill can be passed, and even if it is passed, it cannot be implemented, because once it is implemented, there is likely to be a civil war! ”

"That's right. This is democracy! Liang Qichao looked at Tang Hualong, who was still puzzled, and smiled, and said again: "This is also freedom!" ”

"But this is a civil war, how can this be democracy and freedom? Ren Gong. How can this ......" Liang Qichao's thinking was too jumpy, and Tang Hualong couldn't keep up at all.

"Jiwu, ah......" Liang Qichao sipped tea and shook his head. He was not distressed by Tang Hualong's incomprehension, but felt deeply superior because of it. He smiled again: "Before the pre-Qin period, the people, the least scholars, doctors, and nobles were free, but after the abolition of feudal counties and counties, including the royal family, there was no freedom. In China, the early years of the Han Dynasty were the last free time, and after the heroes and clans of the Han Dynasty were slaughtered, and the remnants of the pre-Qin dynasty were completely eradicated, China truly became an autocratic country.

For two thousand years, Qin Zheng, except for freedom in troubled times, there was no freedom at all at other times, even if it was a relative of the emperor, it was also under absolute autocracy. Just imagine, the emperor's relatives are not free, and the heroes of the founding of the country are not free, so what freedom do you ordinary people have? Under the sub-feudal, each feudal country is governed by itself, and you dare not scold Yang Jingcheng in the fiefdom, and you can scold and scold when you run to Zhang Taiyan's fief; What you can't do in Cai Yuanpei's fiefdom, you may be able to do it if you go to Xie Jintai. Splitting the seal is like smashing a large stone slab into countless small stone slabs with uneven pieces. Jiwu, you say, is it easy to grow grass under the big stone slab, or is it easy to grow grass under the broken stone slab? ”

"Of course, grass grows under broken stones...... Tang Hualong felt dizzy, "but it's ......, but it's ......"

Liang Qichao said again: "Under the big stone slab, the world is dark, no one will compete with anyone, but it can be broken into small stone slabs, then there is competition between each other, what is the essence of competition?" Is it nothing more than economic competition, scientific and technological competition, and military competition?

German Max. Weber said that capitalism only comes from the Protestant ethic, and it is because of the Protestant innovation that the capitalist system and the West are what it is today. He didn't know the suffering of China's autocracy. Which of those traders in the former Qing Dynasty was not a pig raised by the Manchurians? What are pigs raised for, not for slaughter? If a businessman can't even save his life, can he still develop capitalism?

Since ancient times, our country's businessmen have been afraid of a lot of money, worried that they will be remembered by the emperor and the princes and ministers, and even if the county order is difficult, he will not be able to please him. But European merchants did not fear not only their property, but also their lives. Can you imagine that they could lend money to the king? This is something that can only be done in China in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.

How so? There is only one and only one reason for studying it in detail, that is, the imperial power has the power to balance it in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period and in the Western European continent. The emperor wants to slaughter the merchants, civil war! The emperor wants to exploit the nobles, civil war! The emperor wants to implement land reform, civil war! Politics comes out of the barrel of the gun, and democracy comes out of the barrel of the gun.

Didn't Cromwell, who had a profound influence on British constitutionalism, lead the Iron Cavalry to completely defeat the royal army, and even executed King Charles I? This side defeated the autocratic monarch, but the matter was not over, Cromwell backhanded the people who helped him defeat the royal party, and those egalitarians and diggers were all suppressed without mercy. In this way, British constitutionalism can be truly cast. ”

Speaking of this, Liang Qichao glanced at Tang Hualong, who was listening attentively, took a deep breath and said: "At the beginning, everyone said that Yang Jingcheng was the Washington of China, but for the third re-election, everyone finally knew that he was not Washington, but Napoleon. As soon as the partition bill came out, I knew that he was neither Washington nor Napoleon, he was the Cromwell of China! (To be continued.) )
