"It's not that you look the same, you do! For example, you are a popular and popular person, and there are so many people outside who cannot afford to eat, and you also have the ability and responsibility to help them, but you do nothing, doesn't it mean you have no conscience?
"
Qiao Yu really had no choice in the face of this crooked Miss Lu, but her statement seemed to make sense. Since she had become an autonomous committee, it stands to reason that she should shoulder the responsibilities of the government and work hard to change society.
However, I am really only focusing on expanding military power now and thinking about how to obtain greater power in the future. It is a dereliction of duty no matter how I look at it. What is even more frightening is that I don’t feel any discomfort. Is it true that once I get involved in politics, I will not be able to do it.
I consciously became black-minded.
"Miss Lu, since you don't want to be a reporter anymore, how about I introduce you to a job?"
When Lu Wanqing heard that Qiao Yu actually wanted to introduce a job to her, her eyes flickered a few times, as if she was weighing it: "First, tell me what kind of job it is?"
"I am short of a secretary. I wonder if you are willing to give in?"
"Secretary? What is your responsibility?"
"Just sorting out documents, meeting minutes, and receiving visitors. You can definitely do it!"
Lu Wanqing's eyes slightly curved into a crescent shape, she lowered her head and thought for a moment: "Are you sure you don't have any bad intentions?"
"Can't you still trust my character?"
"Huh, it would be strange to believe you. Okay, I agree. From now on, my task is to monitor you and see what bad things you can do!"
While the two were chatting, Wang Tianhe knocked on the door: "Master, there is a gentleman who calls himself Yang Du and wants to visit you!"
Yang Du? Qiao Yu is no stranger to this name. He will be one of the Six Gentlemen of the Security Council in the future. Some people regard him as a clown, while others think that Yang Du has a great talent, but he just can't find the right one.
Yang Du became more and more left-wing in his later years, joined the Red Party, and once planned to rescue Li Dazhao. In short, he was an extremely complicated figure, but he was probably here to test for Yuan Shikai. He came at the right time.
It would be nice to use Yang Du to convey some goodwill to Yuan Shikai, because in the next few years old Yuan will be the master of China.
Qiao Yu hurriedly arrived at the small flower hall with Wang Tianhe, and saw a middle-aged man in his thirties or forties sitting in the flower hall. He was wearing a blue robe, looking chic and calm, with a sense of confidence on his face.
Full of smiles, when he saw Qiao Yu arriving, Yang Du hurriedly stood up and saluted Qiao Yu.
"Qiao Xietong, you're all right. Please don't be offended by Du taking the liberty of coming!"
"It's an honor for me to have the famous Mr. Yang Xizi come here, but I wonder if he has any advice?"
"I'm from Huanshang Village!"
Yang Du was calm and told Qiao Yu directly that he was here on behalf of Yuan Shikai. The two sat across from each other. Yang Du glanced at Wang Tianhe, then looked around the guards around the flower hall, and extended his thumb: "Qiao Xietong is indeed
He is worthy of being a top student studying in Germany, and his subordinates are all elite troops, even compared to the Beiyang New Army!"
"Sir, you're welcome. It's just that it looks good. It can't compare with the world's heroes like Beiyang. Mr. Xizi, let's try Emei Peak first!" Qiao Yu personally poured a cup of tea for Yang Du, and Yang Du also
Took a sip.
"Well, it's really good tea. Sichuan is a land of abundance and has abundant products. This tea is also unusual. Qiao Xietong is a young talent in Sichuan. You took the initiative to cut off Duan Fang's supplies. This is indeed a big deal!"
"
"Could it be that Mr. Yang is here to question the crime on behalf of Mr. Yuan? This is definitely not my intention. Moreover, Doro has angered the dock workers. Even if I don't say it, the workers in Chongqing will not deliver supplies to Duan Fang. Instead of doing this, why don't I say it?
It not only appeases the people, but also avoids conflicts that may occur in the future. It kills two birds with one stone. However, Governor Duanfang is in a bit of a dangerous situation, but he has to do it as a last resort!"….
Yang Du has already walked some places in Dongchuan, and has initially felt the difference between Dongchuan and other places. The strongest feeling is order. This is what the Qing Dynasty lacks. Although it is still very imperfect, it has been revealed.
After getting the prototype, Yang Du naturally knew how difficult it was to achieve this, and how powerful it would be to do it. In other words, Qiao Yu was definitely not forced to come out with such a huge power!
However, Yang Du did not tell the truth, but smiled and said: "Today's world is indeed full of too many last resorts, even the imperial court!"
"Haha, Mr. Yang is joking. You have to walk your own path. If the Qing government doesn't create a royal cabinet, will it fall back to where it is today? Mr. Xizi is a smart man. Since the uprising in Sichuan, the Qing Dynasty has been
It’s over, people’s minds have changed, and I’m afraid a great chaos will come soon!”
Yang Du gave a thumbs up and said loudly: "Qiao Xietong understands clearly. I wonder what Qiao Xietong thinks?"
"Mr. Xizi, I am a nobody, originally of no importance, but since you have been asked a few times, I will tell you that I think the Qing government must be overthrown no matter what, and a Han government will be established. Whether it is an imperial system or a democracy, the Manchus will only rule for one day.
It will suppress the Han people, and the Han people are the main body of the world. Suppressing the Han people is equivalent to suppressing China. China has been lagging behind for hundreds of years. If we don't rise up, we will have no chance at all!"
"Well said! But what does Xietong think of Sun Wen?"
Qiao Yu knew that this was Yang Du trying to test who he supported, so he did not answer directly, but asked back: "Mr. Xizi, I heard that you have met in Japan, why do you need to ask me?"
"Then who among the Han people in the world is the hero who will restore the world?"
"In my opinion, Sun Wen and others are all ambitious and talented but have high vision but low hand. If you talk about it, Yuan Weiting is the number one hero in the world. He has high moral character and high prestige and has a large number of troops. Since Mr. Yang is here on behalf of Mr. Yuan, I will say a few words from my heart.
Mr. Yuan is now living in seclusion in Huanshang Village. It is really a waste of time. With the strength of Beiyang, he conquered the Qing Dynasty and changed the dynasty in a matter of seconds. When the time comes, Mr. Yuan will sit on the throne of the president, which is better than anything else. Why let those who sit on it
Look at the chaos in the world and the suffering of the people?"
When Yang Du saw Qiao Yu's sincere tone, he believed him. In fact, he also had this idea, but Yuan Shikai always felt that the time had not come yet, and the Qing Dynasty had accumulated power for hundreds of years, and Yuan Shikai was an important minister of the Qing Dynasty, so he acted rashly
, it will inevitably attract criticism, so we can only wait for the opportunity!
"Qiao Xietong is joking, Yuan Xiangcheng is still loyal to the Qing Dynasty! I also want to visit Xichuan and see with my own eyes the extent of the uprising. I wonder if Qiao Xietong can help?"
"Mr. Xizi wants to go to a dangerous place in person. I think it will be another Zhuge Wuhou in the future, so he will enter Xichuan with the caravan. However, there are too many insurgents now, so sir, you should be more careful!"
After seeing Yang Du off, Qiao Yu came to his father Qiao Guangyuan's yard, where the old man was tending to the flowers and plants.
"Dad, Yuan Shikai sent Yang Du here to find the child! What do you think?"
"I have three treasures, one is compassion, the other is frugality, and the other is not daring to be the first in the world! How to explain this sentence?"
Qiao Guangyuan did not answer directly, but said this famous quote from the Tao Te Ching. However, Qiao Yu was so alert that he immediately understood the meaning of his father's words. "Dad, you are blaming the child for cutting off Duan Fang's supplies.
Is the world first?"
"My three sentences explain the way of life so thoroughly. Be kind to others and be frugal in self-cultivation. The most important thing is that the essence of self-preservation is not to dare to be the first for the world. What you say to others in your current status will mean
The Sichuan business community represents the local Constitutional Party. Lao Yuan is worried that the Constitutional Party will threaten his position, so he sent Yang Du to test you. However, although Yang Du is talented, he is a bit conceited. He must be here.
I hope to win you over and support Yuan Shikai!"
Qiao Yu couldn't help but stick out his thumb: "Dad, you are so amazing, you guessed things so well!"
The old man sighed softly: "What's the use of seeing through this? Originally, I always thought that you acted too fast and easily caused the opponent's backlash. But now it seems that you are right. Yuan Shikai has a disobedient heart. This court is really
There is no hope. Although Chongqing has de facto independence, it has not been officially announced after all, so there is still room for maneuver. However, you must remember not to be the first person to formally become independent and oppose the Qing court. From Chen Sheng, Wu Guang, to Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong
, since ancient times, the first person to raise the flag of rebellion will not end well!"
