Chapter 288 Anger and Persuasion

"Tonight marks the end of the election. Tomorrow, in our long history, China will make its choice. Henggu believes that the people on this land have mastered the fate and future of this country for the first time, which symbolizes an end and a beginning; it also means continuity and change. . ...History will witness that tomorrow, China will move towards light or darkness!"

Sun Yat-sen, who stood by the window on January 30, 4602, looked at the newspaper in his hand. His whole face was grim and gloomy. He looked at the newspaper in his hand, with a trace of grief and indignation, but a little helplessness flashed between his eyebrows.

Not to mention how many full-fledged voters there are in the country, but only 35,684 people support the election results of the Republic, which makes him feel sad and indignant about being "being deceived abroad", but what he feels most is helpless, a kind of disheartened helplessness.

Especially when I read in the newspaper that I, who was also listed as a candidate, got less than 10,000 votes, and most of the 10,000 votes came from his hometown.

Only less than one in 10,000 people in the country support the reality of the republic, like a fierce slap in his face. Even some comrades have expressed their support for the imperial system after they went abroad. What is more heartbreaking than the betrayal of comrades.

Intimate comrades betrayed the revolution!

The promise of the past hides the evil!

The so-called foreign expedition is just a harp for evil... The door of the room opened, and a 21-two-year-old handsome young man walked in. Like Sun Yat-sen, he was wearing a new black and gray dress. He was Sun Yat-sen's secretary - Wang Zhaoming.

Before the restoration, Cen Chunxuan, the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, recruited public-funded international students in Guangzhou to the accelerated course of Japan University of Political Science and Law, and the number of admissions was 50. Qingzheng Axe subsidized 30 yuan per month for each public-funded international student. Wang Zhaoming was admitted to the public-funded international students this time. Later, he failed to travel because of the restoration. Later, Nanjing recruited central civil servants, and then went to Nanjing to apply for the central civil servants. After failing the list, he joined the People's Daily run by the Xingzhong Club and became the main contributor to the People's Daily. Wang Zhaoming published in the People's Daily under the pseudonym of "Jingwei". Article.

Wang Zhaoming's use of the pseudonym "Jingwei" comes from the story of Jingwei reclamation in the Classic of Mountains and Seas, which contains perseverance to the revolution. Wang Jingwei's article is logical, sharp, and has a lot of influence among young people.

After Sun Yat-sen returned to China, because of Wang Zhaoming's quick thinking, good at speech, great organization and appeal, he quickly stood out and was appreciated by Sun Yat-sen and was valued. Because the revolutionary party at that time was fragmented and its forces were very scattered, Sun Yat-sen wanted to integrate the revolutionary party after returning to China, so he urgently needed a secretary. Wang Zhaoming became Sun Yat-sen's secretary, and this time he also accompanied him to visit the foreign country.

"Sir, the telegram from China is scheduled for the fourth day of the first lunar month, and the name of the country is the Chinese Empire!"

"Ji Xin, now there is a celebration party on the ship!"

Standing by the window sill, you can see the "departure number" parked in Alexandria. At this time, the fireworks were constantly placed on the departure number, and Sun Yat-sen asked that he did not want to participate in the celebration of "celebrating the beginning of the empire".

Three days ago, when the "national election" was over, the British [***] ship in Alexandria also fired a salute to the "departure". On the day the "departure" entered Alexandria, Sun Yat-sen learned that the national election had started, and he himself decided to return to China. He chose to leave the investigation team.

Although Zhang Feng, as the head of the investigation group, congratulated him, even did not forget to provide him with a 3,000 yuan of toll according to the requirements of the ruling axe, but for 18 days, he has been stranded in Alexandria. The latest one will sail to India in Alexandria. It will arrive at the port tomorrow and will not leave the day after tomorrow. .

And now? Before he returns to China, the election is over. Forty-five million citizens have made their choices about the national body.

Looking at the fireworks of the launch of the "Departure" cruise ship in Alexandria, Sun Yat-sen sighed helplessly. What are they celebrating? Is it to celebrate China's return to school to slavery?

Two months ago, when the "Departure" left Hong Kong from Shanghai, he thought that there would be something to gain from this inspection. When he wanted to explain the advantages and disadvantages of the Republic and the imperial system to those students, the officials of the Ministry of Education declined on the name that students needed to learn foreign languages. During the inspection in India, he arranged heavy inspections. At first, he I thought this was the need for investigation, but what about now?

After entering Alexandria and reading the news of "China's founding election" from the local newspaper, he finally understood that all this was a conspiracy from beginning to end, and even this investigation team could be a conspiracy!

Sun Yat-sen, who was thoughtful, did not hear what Wang Zhaoming was saying. He just repeatedly appeared in his mind that he had a sincere smile on his face with a Prussian beard when he talked to the ruler. From the beginning, he deceived himself.

"... On January 31st, as soon as the results of the national election came out, the United States, Britain, Germany, Russia and other countries sent congratulatory telegrams to give official recognition. Austria-Hungary, Sweden, Denmark, Belgium, Norway, Switzerland and other countries have officially recognized it, and have said that he has moved his envoy to Nanjing. Today, the United States, Peru and Brazil have announced the recognition of the Chinese Empire.

In Wang Zhaoming's tone, there were not many waves. Eighteen days ago, on the "Qicheng", the national sports election was also held. Sir and he did not participate in the voting. In your opinion, this national sports election is "illegal", but who can change this fact now?

"Sir, now we must admit the reality. I think you should refund the ticket and continue to visit with the group!"

Looking at the gentleman standing by the window, Wang Zhaoming put forward his own suggestion. In the past two days, he has been persuading him to accept the facts and continue to investigate.

"Continue the investigation? This is just a conspiracy in itself. Is it necessary for us to continue to sing this play?

He may not be angry if he doesn't mention the inspection of Sun Yat-sen. As long as he mentions this investigation, he will be angry.

"Sir, less than 36,000 votes have shown the truth!"

"That's because I'm not in China, if..."

After only half of the words, Sun Yat-sen still stopped. Even if he was in China, could he persuade tens of millions of people to support the republic?

"Sir, now that the people's wisdom is not open, I can only wait for tomorrow!"

"Tomorrow! Will it be there again tomorrow?"

I'm afraid that nothing can hit a person's confidence more than the result of the vote. Once he was full of confidence and believed that his ideas would win the support of the people, but now? The people used their votes to tell him what they chose. Even if they supported the republican people, the president they chose was still Chen Moran.

"The opening of the people's wisdom is that when our party wins tomorrow, I also hope that you can put down your precondominations and concentrate on investigation, so that he can plan for the Republican Party after returning to China! He decided with the royalist party in the Congress..."

Although he is a young man, Wang Zhaoming put forward a suggestion that he thought was the most appropriate.

"Mr., the government will be in power for ten years to establish a constitution, and you will have ten years to prepare for it. Today's defeat is expected. Ten years later, tens of millions of people will be educated, and the people's wisdom will open. Our Republican Party must be respected by the people. Today's children, his dynasty is the elected people, and I, the Republican Party, will Get the Congress, the responsibility of the Congress, and seek to change the state, only between raising hands.

Wang Zhaoming, who said this, was so excited that he even breathed quickly. He seemed to see the day when the country changed greatly.

"The king's power is granted by the people. Today, he can ascend the throne as the emperor by the people. Ten years later, can't we practice the republic with the will of the people, and then the success of the revolution be a great achievement!"

"Ten years! Ten years...Ji Xin!"

Sun Yat-sen, who was moved by Wang Jingwei's words, looked at the young comrade in front of him in surprise. In the past, he only knew that he was agile, but at this time he lifted the young man to the position of military division.

"Ji Xin, tell me what you think!"

"Sir, in any case, you must admit the election results!"

Wang Zhaoming's voice was particularly loud in the silent night. His sentence was like a wooden stick hitting a bell. Although the impact stopped, the sound always circled in Sun Yat-sen's ears.

"Wang Zhaoming went to see Sun Wen?"

In the lower cabin of the departure, a middle-aged man in a new uniform asked the young man standing in front of him.

"Yes, webmaster, if nothing unexpected happens, he should be able to convince Sun Wen!"

"Continue to observe them, and report any new trends immediately. At this time, we will not tolerate any chaos in China, understand?"

"Oh, these people."

After his subordinates left the cabin, Zhao Dianqin sighed first, picked up the teacup from the table, took a sip but sighed again.

"They always think they can control everything, but they don't know at all..."

From the beginning, Sun Wen's every move has been under the control of the Investigation Bureau. Even Wang Zhaoming, who was appointed as a secretary by him, had been developed into a spy by the Investigation Bureau as early as a few months ago. Even what Wang Zhaoming is going to say to Sun Yat-sen today is an instruction directly from Nanjing. Everything is in the plan.

"Wang Zhaoming... Uh-huh! It's a good pawn!"

When the cup was sent to his lips, Zhao Dianqin smiled coldly. Until now, Wang Zhaoming has conscientiously informed himself of Sun Wen's situation. If he can convince Sun Wen this time, he will definitely become the person Sun Wen relies on. At that time, no matter what kind of Republican Party they do or act rebellious, as long as everything They are all under control, and Sun Wen is not afraid!

"It's really a group of naive people!"

With a sigh, he looked at the bust of the ruler hanging on the bulkhead. In a few days, the ruler will ascend the throne.

"The fourth day of the first lunar month!"
