Fengxian Jiangshan

After Zhang Xun arrived in Beijing, everyone was shocked by his unexpected behavior. Some people who had been in the political circle for many years felt a strange atmosphere, and some well-informed people went around rumors that when Zhang Xun left the Forbidden City, he was wearing a It's a yellow jacket.

Now all kinds of rumors spread all over Sijiu City in an instant, but Zhang Xun, the commander-in-chief, completely ignored them. As soon as he entered Beijing, he let his subordinates take over Beijing's city defense, and even the presidential palace was controlled. Then he invited Kang Youwei out again.

As we all know, Kang Youwei is the leader of the Royalist Party. Since the failure of the Reform Movement of [-], Kang Youwei has been in exile overseas for many years. After entering the country, he also frequently published royalist remarks in newspapers.

Now that Zhang Xun and Kang Youwei got mixed up, the situation became clearer. That night Zhang Xun called together all the Beiyang veterans in Beijing, including Wang Shizhen, Jiang Chaozong, Chen Guangyuan, Wu Binghu and others.

After everyone arrived at the scene, Zhang Xun was dressed in a military uniform with a yellow mandarin jacket on the outside, and his appearance was imposing. Kang Youwei accompanied him, and he looked even more majestic.

After meeting, Zhang Xun said: "This time, the commander-in-chief came to Beijing not to mediate any disputes between the courts, but to restore the great treasure of your majesty and restore the Qing Dynasty. Back then, the Empress Dowager Longyu, in order not to bear the war in the country, He just announced his abdication. Now that the republic has been established for so many years, the country has no improvement, but is a mess. At this time, His Majesty should be allowed to rule the world again, so that the country can live in peace and prosperity!"

Zhang Xun said his opinion loudly, and the others were listening. Wang Shizhen was known as the Dragon of Beiyang back then, and he was also a great figure with a long history.As soon as he saw this occasion, he guessed what was going on, but he was not at all optimistic about the restoration. Yuan Shikai had such a great power back then, and after he became emperor, he immediately betrayed his relatives.

Now Puyi is only a 12-year-old child, who is still young, can he convince the princes of the world!Zhang Xun and Kang Youwei are the two pieces of material, and they cooperate well. The key is whether they can control the country.Among other things, even Beijing and Tianjin cannot be controlled.

Therefore, Wang Shizhen dared to ask: "What is the attitude of the provinces? Has the Ministry of Foreign Affairs contacted the great powers, and what is the attitude of the great powers?"

"There is no problem with diplomacy, and all the governors of the provinces agree. Feng Guozhang and Lu Rongting have expressed their full support. Zhang is bound to restore the Qing Dynasty. Whoever dares to oppose me will have to fight to the death!"

Wang Shizhen saw that Zhang Xun had made up his mind after eating the weights, so he simply didn't care about anything. He was so old that he couldn't afford to get angry about this kind of thing. Naturally, there were people to deal with it. These Beiyang veterans followed Zhang Xun.When they arrived at the Forbidden City, the little emperor Puyi was invited out to restore him.

Although Puyi is only 12 years old, she also feels that this kind of thing seems a little unreliable.So he said: "I'm too young, I'm afraid I can't take on the big position."

Zhang Xun hurriedly fell to his knees, and said with sincerity and fear: "The emperor is wise and wise. The emperor Kangxi, the holy ancestor, also practiced his age, and there was a splendid country in the Qing Dynasty. Your Majesty will definitely be able to rejuvenate the Qing Dynasty. The ministers are willing to swear allegiance to His Majesty to the death!"

Up to now, Puyi could only reluctantly agree. It was already early morning, and Zhang Xun took a copy of Li Yuanhong's request for the return of state affairs that he had drawn up a long time ago, and ran to the presidential palace, and was kept in the dark when he met. Li Yuanhong.

Li Bodhisattva was completely out of anger, and said loudly: "My presidential position was elected by the people all over the world, so I can't hand it over casually."

"Li Yuanhong, don't be ashamed. You were also a courtier of the Qing Dynasty back then. Without your master, Long En, how could you have the status you have today. Now that the master is re-elected, you still want to steal the state affairs, and you are looking for death!"

While Zhang Xun was speaking, he had already taken out his pistol. As long as Li Yuanhong dared to object again, Zhang Xun would shoot Li Yuanhong dead.Li Bodhisattva saw that it was hard to recover, so he could only close his eyes, and simply ignored it. Zhang Xun and the others snatched the seal, then returned to the Forbidden City, and immediately announced it to the world. The Yellow Dragon Banner hangs on the streets of Beijing again.

A restoration farce has finally begun. After hearing the news, the old and young people of the Manchu Qing Dynasty all jumped out to play their crowns to celebrate, and took out the court clothes that they hadn’t worn for many years. In the theatrical troupe, they snatched all those court clothes.

In addition to court clothes, some people didn't even have braids, so they all hung up fake braids. For a while, the city of Beijing was full of demons dancing, as if the world had changed overnight.

This kind of change has naturally become the talk of countless people after dinner. In the newly renovated Xiangyun Teahouse, a group of people gathered to discuss this matter.

"Shopkeeper Wang, this city of Beijing is worthy of being under the feet of the emperor, and you can see all the excitement. The emperor has been gone for several years, and how he reappeared is simply a great anecdote."

Shopkeeper Wang is in his forties, honest and kind, but with a shrewd businessman in his eyes, he sighed and said: "No matter what kind of drama they play, this teahouse is suffering, and there will be no customers for many days! "

"Shopkeeper Wang, this Xiangyun teahouse is the largest teahouse in Beijing. It never loses customers 360 days a year. It doesn't matter if there is an emperor or not. You don't need to worry about it!"

"Don't worry too much, I know in my heart, do you know Song Sanye?"

"You mean Song Zhongyi, Song Sanye, who ran a textile factory in Beijing back then. I heard that his family business was ruined, and his family didn't know where to go. It's pitiful to talk about it. What a pity. A good life, but you can’t live a good life, what kind of factory are you tossing about, like us, drinking tea, walking around, absolutely no trouble can be found!”

Shopkeeper Wang showed a smile on his face, pointed to the ceiling, then pointed to the clothes of the speaker, and said with a smile: "Song Sanye's family property has not been ruined, and now it is ten times and a hundred times richer than before. , the coat on your body is made of cloth from Master Song's factory!"

"No, this cloth is so well woven, I still think it's foreign cloth!"

"Foreign cloth?" Shopkeeper Wang smiled: "The foreigners are fighting a war, and foreign cloth has long been unable to come in. Now [-] to [-]% of the cloth on the market is produced by Song Ye's factory! See, my teahouse is also Song San If the third master hadn't favored the shares I bought, I wouldn't be able to build such a big teahouse in my life."

When the tea guests heard this, they immediately became interested. An old acquaintance Xianyu turned over, which was more interesting than a national event, and everyone asked the shopkeeper Wang to talk about what was going on.

"Everyone, the third master was in my original teahouse two years ago. He was lucky and met a nobleman. His business and business moved to Fengtian. I heard that the Fengtian authorities helped to contact me. The cloth produced by the third master was directly supplied to the big powers. The factory has grown several times in two years. In the three eastern provinces, as well as in Beijing and Tianjin, most of the cloth is woven by Sanye's factory. Recently, I heard that Sanye's industry has expanded again. People don't want to rely solely on weaving. , and invested in a chemical plant to produce dyes, which can make more money than weaving.”

Shopkeeper Wang said with great emotion: "The third master wrote to me some time ago, saying that if he hadn't come to my teahouse, there would not have been such a big change, so he was willing to invest in the shares. That's why I re-expanded the teahouse."

"Shopkeeper Wang, the third master is willing to help you, because you have done good deeds and accumulated virtue, and you have met a noble person!"

"Isn't it!" The other tea guests also said with a smile: "Listen to you, the Fengtian authorities have helped the third master a lot. It’s time to take the initiative to help the common people, is the sun coming out from the west?”

"Not to mention, I didn't believe it at first, but after I inquired about a lot of information, I realized that it was true. As long as you invest in Fengtian, the government will try its best to help you, and you can even provide loans. Recently, you are still recruiting refugees everywhere. Farming in three provinces. Have you noticed that the number of beggars on the streets has decreased a lot? I heard that most of them have gone to Fengtian. This group of people has all had good luck. Maybe in a few years, they will be able to stand in our well-dressed in front of me!"

"Shopkeeper, did Fengtian defeat the Russians not long ago? Those days, the students paraded and cheered in the street every day, and many people even lit firecrackers to celebrate?"

"That's right, it was Fengjun who did it. The Fengtian authorities are good at grasping the economy, and they are capable of leading troops to fight. They must not rub the sand in their eyes. Beijing and Fengtian are not far away. You say that there is a restoration here. Can people watch, maybe they will call at any time, it just hurts my business!"

While shopkeeper Wang was talking, a newsboy outside suddenly ran in and shouted out of breath, "Extra! Extra! Yu Shuai sent a telegram to seek rebellion, and Feng's army will soon go south to conquer the braided army!"

Hearing the newsboy's words, shopkeeper Wang was also taken aback. He didn't expect his premonition to be so accurate, so he hurriedly bought a newspaper, and other tea drinkers also came over. The front page of the newspaper featured Feng Jun's Discuss reverse electrification.

On the day of the restoration, Zhang Zuolin issued a power-up call for rebellion. It was like a blow to the head, hitting Zhang Xun hard on the head, making him almost unsteady. Others don't know how powerful Fengjun is, but Zhang Xun knows it very well. , His army is equipped with a lot of munitions from the Feng army. I am afraid that in history, those who buy weapons are no better than those who sell weapons. Zhang Xun couldn't help being frightened when he heard the news.

There is another person who is even more depressed, and that is Duan Qirui from Tianjin. He originally brought Zhang Xun to Beijing. At that time, Zhang Zuolin took the lead and took the lead in launching the attack.

Zhang Zuolin's first contribution to this rebellion fell on Zhang Zuolin's head. After a hard plan, Lao Zhang easily picked the peaches. Now that there are articles supporting Fengjun all over the world, how can Duan Qirui not be depressed. (To be continued..)
