Chapter 319(1/2)

Everyone’s thoughts (please give me a monthly vote!)

After the death of the Qing Dynasty, the person who showed the most was Yuan Shikai. Almost everything he wanted to do could be accomplished. No one in the Beiyang system could surpass him, and the people in the old court were no problem. Even Sun Yat-sen and Huang Xing seemed inferior. Otherwise, how could he hand over the president to him!

As the president, Sun Yat-sen wanted the prime minister. When Yuan was the president, they would have a prime minister to restrain the prime minister. But Yuan Shikai still played with a cabinet between applause and drums. If one cabinet didn't work, Yuan Shikai would change the cabinet.

It can be said that since the founding of the Republic of China, Yuan Shikai still held the highest power in the Republic of China. Although the third year of the founding of the Republic of China had experienced many twists and turns, no matter how you look at it, it finally turned out that the rain had finally passed and the weather was clear. Without a cold, the plum blossoms were fragrant, and the Jiaoao Incident had a national prestige, the people's spirit, and the dignity of the dignity of the dignified country, and the respect of the great powers. This really made Yuan Shikai very pleased.

But while being relieved, the problems that have been neglected in the past come to their minds. Seeing that the Japanese envoy got ashore in Dagu, he would arrive in Beijing soon to negotiate on the "Jiaoao Incident". At most, the "Jiaoao Incident" that had lost dozens of kilograms will end. The foreign affairs are over, but the internal affairs are just beginning.

In the past few days, Yuan Shikai, who was originally immersed in the feeling of a head of state, suddenly became silent. He often sat alone or walked alone in a quiet place, with his head hanging and his eyes closed, but his thoughts were extremely messy.

Yuan Shikai is so sad!

How can you avoid worrying?

Once the negotiations are over, the war will definitely happen, and Li Zicheng will be in Beijing. Although asking Li Zicheng to come to Beijing was the effect that Yuan Shikai had to do, now, as time approaches, Yuan Shikai was helplessly worried:

Once Li Zicheng enters Beijing, many things will be placed on the table!

How to get Li Zicheng to agree to transfer the Jiangsu Army to Europe is one of them;

How to keep Li Zicheng in the capital and not let the tiger return to the mountain is the second;

How can I give the whole country an explanation on the placement of Li Zicheng? This is the most important thing

Why didn't you think of these things at the beginning?

But when I thought of it, what can I do?

Now, Li Zicheng's prestige, let alone Sun Huang, even Yuan Shikai, could not overshadow his reputation. "Save the current situation in a tide and save the country in danger!", "Billions of people hear their voices and know their reputation, listen to their words, and know their hearts!" These are not all of them, Li Zicheng, and even his head of power, who was sent by Li Zicheng.

The master is extremely powerful!

After that, Li Zicheng made a merit of unsealedness and a merit of beheading!

Yuan Shikai was very clear about this point, but now, this is either the past or the Qing Dynasty, Zeng Guofan made a contribution that was not a title. Even Cixi did not dare to kill him with his merits, let alone the present.

Now, if Li Zicheng was killed when he came to Beijing, Yuan Shikai knew what kind of trouble would cause. By then, I would be really in turmoil in China. Not to mention his Jiangsu Army, even his generals would be rebellious. By then, the president would probably have done his best.

But if you don’t kill Li Zicheng, you have to find a way to place him, give him a seat, and where will you give him a seat?

A false name!

No, no matter how empty the position is, as long as you have money, you can do it. If Zhang Binglin had the wealth of Li Zicheng back then, maybe the border stake would have become a border stake with tens of thousands of troops and leading several provinces.

Actual job!

What kind of practical position can satisfy the people? Well, more importantly, it is to satisfy him, Li Zhiyuan, and then willingly hand over the military power and come to the capital to work obediently.

This is the most difficult one.

What is the most difficult thing in the world is to let others willingly put their heads in front of you and willingly let you cut them down!

Li Zhiyuan...

As he muttered, the strange face of Yuan Shikai's heart appeared in Yuan Shikai's heart again. Is that boy "treats people with sincerity" true?

Others may be fascinated, but Yuan Shikai would not. The boy's shrewdness was afraid that he would go back thirty years, and he would not be as good as him. He pointed to the boy's willingness to wash his neck and stretch his head over, not even thinking about it.

But he was accused of receiving the "wen sword". Not only did he bear it, but he also had the right to be honest and did not leave a way out for himself. Now all of China know that after the war, Li Zhiyuan would be invited by the President to go to the capital to discuss national affairs.

But after discussing the state affairs, Li Zhiyuan and Yuan Shikai would go to that point. The whole country looked open with their eyes open and looked at it. If nothing was discussed, then let him return to Lianyungang. By then, all provinces could see the central government's external strength and the middle force, which Yuan Shikai would not want to see.

"Open conspiracy!"

With a wry smile, Yuan Shikai was not as relaxed as when he first received the telegram. He used open conspiracy at the beginning. Li Zicheng replied also open conspiracy.

Use open conspiracy against open conspiracy!

In the end, Li Zicheng kicked the problem to himself again!

If you want to discuss a result in the future, you have to give him enough things. Only in this way can the whole country see that Yuan Shikai did not treat Li Zicheng badly. Yuan Shikai valued talents and had a broad mind. As for whether Li Zicheng accepts or refuses, that is his business.

Give him a general leader?

But this thought just flashed by. The chief of the department, taking this position out would be a shame to him. At that time, it might be just an excuse to give him a natural excuse to leave Beijing.

Then...what seat should they be given?

Yuan Shikai felt aroused!

Let’s ask someone to come and discuss it!

Yuan Shikai found Liang Shiyi, Xu Shichang and Yang Du in front of him and asked in a daze:

"Have you studied that...Li Zhiyuan's matter?"

The president's words made the three of them look at each other without knowing what they meant.

"That should be studied carefully. Well-"

Yuan Shikai pulled a long empty tongue and said:

"This Ishii Special Envoy arrives at Dagukou and will arrive in the capital tomorrow at the latest. Within a month, the incident will be over. Once the incident is over, the country will have to go from outside to inside. Well, the Huaihai Administration has made it hard and made great contributions in this incident. It is impossible to study it. You must not lose your heart of the world."

The three of them became confused at the same time, and they muttered to themselves:

"This, the President used a literary knife to attack Li Zicheng. Now that the literary knife has been cut, Li Zicheng has also suffered. What else should I study? Could it be that it is to study what..."

Yuan Shikai's words only made the three of them feel unscrupulous. However, no one dared to go against his words, so he had to follow his words and say it.

"Yes, yes, it must not be cooled down by the hearts of all people."

Seeing that the three of them looked like they didn't understand, Yuan Shikai laughed.

"Don't get me wrong. What I mean is that Li Zhiyuan made great contributions this time. From the Longhai Railway to the Jiaoao Incident, it has proved that Li Zhiyuan is a talent and a useful talent. Since he is a pillar of the country, we should use it to avoid outsiders saying that we Chinese are not good at it! What's more, now the state affairs are now settled and it is time to use people, so everyone should think about where Li Zicheng should use it!"

The President's words surprised the three of them at the same time. It seemed that the President was leaving Li Zicheng in Beijing!

To tell the truth, these three people should be called people with skills in contemporary China. They are quite geniuses in judging the situation and strategizing. However, in front of Yuan Shikai, they seem very clumsy. Because Yuan Shikai is born with many tricks and is good at excessive yin and yang. You seem to understand what he means, but he shakes his head and then puts out a lot of unreasonable truths. Your reason for being a truth must also obey his reason for being an unreasonable truth. Therefore, at the right time, even if you are very sure that you think it right, you have to keep your mouth shut, but this will obviously not be a decent.

"The position of chief of the rural business is more suitable!"

All of them were clear, Xu Shichang and Yang Du said at the same time.

"President Li Zhiyuan is good at industry, and this has long been known to the people of the country. From this point of view, this person became the chief of rural and commercial enterprises and presided over the national industrial development. One can give full play to its strengths, and the other can promote the national industrial development..."

When Yang Du said this, he was somewhat against his will, but in fact he was more selfish. Since the Xinhai period, he has followed the President to make plans and fulfilled Yuan Shikai's wishes. He thought that Yuan would give him a reward for the higher vocational positions in the cabinet. Unexpectedly, in the past few years, he has been in vain.

Now, Li Zicheng, who was considered to be just a "pacific businessman", was about to enter the central government, but he did nothing. How could he be content with this? That's why he made such a suggestion.

As for Xu Shichang, the Secretary of State, who had just been appointed, changed the responsibility cabinet system to the presidential system six months ago, was muttered when Yuan Shikai mentioned Li Zicheng's position in the future. As an old man around Yuan Shikai, how could he not understand the President's thoughts? If a minister of the minister could repay Li Zicheng, he would not invite four people to come.

After becoming Secretary of State, deep in Xu Shichang's heart, he also tended to the idea of ​​Xiong Xiling, the first democratically elected prime minister of the Republic of China, to build a "first-class talent cabinet", so he hoped that Li Zicheng would enter the cabinet to preside over the Ministry of Agriculture and Commerce. In his opinion, no one in China is more suitable for this position than him. When others were talking big, Li Zicheng's industrial belt along the Longhai line had already shown its shape. What is talent? This is talent. Such talents will only benefit the cabinet if they come to the cabinet.

But at this moment, after hearing what the President said, Xu Shichang suddenly became murmur. He vaguely understood that the reason why the President was in a difficult position was probably because he was a reward for a chief, which would only make the people of the world dissatisfied. Of course, the more important thing was that Li Zicheng was dissatisfied. Compared with the chief, Li Zicheng might as well stay in Jiangsu as his Huaihai Strategic Commander, and then slowly expand his influence along the Longhai Railway as he controls Jiangsu now.

But the President wanted to stay in the Central Committee. In this way, not to mention the Minister of State, even the Secretary of State may not be able to fall into Li Zicheng's eyes. The Secretary of State in the Political Affairs Hall of the Republic of China is to some extent just the president's voice-over. If he wants to keep Li Zicheng, he will probably only be the Prime Minister!

When Xu Shichang and Yang Du said the same sentence, Liang Shiyi was surprisingly silent. In Yuan Shikai's eyes, Yuan Shikai just nodded in his heart. It seemed that only Liang Yansun was a sensible person.

When it comes to employing people, Yuan Shikai is undoubtedly a person with dual personality. On the one hand, what he likes the most is the kind of timid person, while on the other hand, he knows that timid person is useless, so he knows that whether it is Xu Shichang or Yang Du, it is just to show the former and deal with him with false words.

He nodded and said:

"Well, you all understand in your heart, but you just don't want to expose this layer of paper. If you don't say it, I have to say something. The achievements of the world are in the country and in the future. The head of the rural commerce company. Not to mention that he made great achievements this time, just relying on him to do the Longhai line, and let alone let him serve as the head of the rural commerce company, what's wrong with it!"

Seeing the President say this, Xu Shichang and Yang Du both fell silent. The President said everything he should say, so they just nodded. With their garden slips, they naturally understood Yuan Shikai's thoughts and when they should say what they should say, they still understand.

"Okay, that's all, you guys help me explain it yourself, please refer to it."

Knowing that this involved their own interests, Yuan Shikai no longer forced his hand and said:

"Just that's it."

Xu Shichang, Liang Shiyi and Yang Du quickly stood up and said goodbye with relief.

After Yuan Shikai sent them out of the study, he said to Liang Shiyi:

"Sun Yan, please leave a step. I have something to discuss with you."

After the two of them left, Liang Shiyi followed Yuan Shikai back to the study.

Yuan Shikai first gave him a cigar, then added tea to him, then said:

"Yansun, you are a wise man, and you also know where I am embarrassed. I have been thinking about such a thing these days. If Zhiyuan comes, we will give him a director of the rural business. Will he be satisfied?"

Liang Shiyi's ignited cigar was not sucked, and he closed his eyes slightly and thought for a moment, shook his head and said:

"Even if Li Zhiyuan doesn't say anything, I'm afraid the generals of various provinces will say privately. Public opinion may not let this go. If the revolutionaries who fear that the world will not be in chaos will ignite the fire, then..."

"Then they will be satisfied if they have to give him a seat!"

Yuan Shikai looked at his secretary-general, that is, he, and could tell a few more truths, at least he did not show any selfish interests in this incident.

"President, I think what the President wants in his heart should be the position of the Political Affairs Hall!"

In one sentence, Liang Shiyi pointed out what Yuan Shikai was thinking.

"Oh, it's difficult!"

Yuan Shikai did not deny it. In fact, after thinking about it, he only had the position of Secretary of State of the Political Affairs Hall, which could block the whole world and make Li Zicheng speechless. Li Zicheng had no way to refuse.

"It's the Apricot..."
