Chapter 24 Variation twenty-three

Before the victory of Kang Youwei, he wrote tens of thousands of words, talked about current affairs, and wrote "Xinxue Apocrypha" to shock and despise Confucianism. At that time, the kings and princes and the crowd shocked his name, thinking that Xuanni was resurrected, so they called Kang Shengren.The victory of Li Wei, the greater the reputation, the emperor Guangxu also heard about the false voice, and he will be promoted in no time.Weng Tonghe peeped at Shangyi, and tried his best to protect Kang Youwei, saying that "his talent is ten times better than his ministers".I was also afraid that there might be a violation of the rules in the future, so I added words such as "whether people's minds are different from the beginning to the end, and I dare not know deeply", thinking that such words can not be tolerated.

After the Eight-Power Allied Forces captured Beijing, they publicly humiliated the princes and ministers who had no time to escape. For example, Prince Su Shanqi, Yushi Chen Bi and others were forced to pick up dung and stones.At that time, Huaitabu was the Minister of the Ministry of Rites and was the in-law of the Empress Dowager Cixi. He was used to pull the cart. A foreign devil sat on the cart, holding the rein, and from time to time beat his back with a whip in his hand, making crackling noises. Huai Shangshu turned his head and smiled Said: "Don't hit the old man. The villain runs this road several times a day, so he won't pull the wrong place."

After the "Xin Chou Treaty", the Qing government issued a "crime edict" and began to implement reforms, almost completely implementing the new laws of Kangliang.Instead of stopping privilege, the reform expanded privilege, and the expansion of privilege led to the deepening of corruption.Sun Yat-sen said at the time: "The mere introduction of railways or any such measures of European material civilization will only make things worse because they open up new avenues for extortion, embezzlement and theft." Liang Bi studied at the Tokyo Non-commissioned Officer Academy and saw the fierceness of the revolution. When he returned, he said to the Manchu boss: "Don't be afraid, these people give them tens of thousands of gold and silver every month, and give them a hat, and they will shut up." The old Yuan Shikai is also an expert in dealing with personnel affairs, and his habit is to use money to pave the way. Huang Yuanyong therefore said that Yuan Shikai was Liangbi's apprentice.Huang's coachman quarreled with a cart driver on the street, and the patrolman on guard said, "Come on, come on, you know? This is the era of the Republic, and everyone is dealing with it." Huang thought that the idea of ​​dealing with it was also a manifestation of authoritarian education, and said that the patrolman was a Yuan Shikai's apprentice.

After Yuan Shikai became president, he strongly advocated respecting Confucius. He said, "Confucius's way is as old as ever, and it is as inseparable as cloth, silk, bean and millet." Since 1913, he has continuously issued orders and regulations on respecting Confucius and reading scriptures, ordering the whole country to resume worshiping Confucius. In September 1914, he led all civil and military officials to worship Confucius at the Confucian Temple, and in December, to the Temple of Heaven to worship heaven. When Yan Fu was young, he was very worried about the incompetence of the Qing government. He often said to people: "In less than 30 years, the vassals will be exhausted, and I will be like an old man." The "New Deal" facilities can "enrich the country and strengthen itself", and they are very dissatisfied with the Westernization Movement.Li Hongzhang "suffers from its intenseness, but it is not close."Since then, it has not been reused.When the Qing government was about to fall, in 1909, in order to win over social celebrities, the Qing court granted Yan Fu a liberal arts Jinshi background. In 1910, the Ministry of the Navy specially granted him the title of Xiedutong, and he was also recruited as a member of the Senior Council. In 1911, he was awarded the First Class Staff Officer of the Navy.Yan Fu's eldest son, Yan Zhu, was also promoted to a senior official with the rank of second rank.The relationship between his family and the Qing court became closer, and he therefore held a negative attitude towards the revolution.After the Revolution of 1911, he missed the Qing Dynasty, and often made remarks to slander the revolution, believing that the Chinese people's "knowledge is not suitable for a republic".

In 1915, after Yuan Shikai implemented the monarchy, Xu Shichang asked to resign.When Yuan persuaded him to sponsor him, he said: "You must leave some room for maneuver when it comes to major events. If your relatives are involved in the game, if things don't go well, no one will speak as an outsider to try to make things better. At this time Begging to go, not for my own sake." Then he retreated to Shuizhu Village, Huixian County, Henan Province.After Yuan proclaimed himself emperor, he was named one of the "Four Friends of Songshan". After the failure of the Kangliang Revolution, Kang Youwei became more and more conservative, from political revolution to constitutional monarchy, then back to royalism, and to demanding that Confucianism be made the state religion. He admitted: "I traveled to Mexico without daring to talk about democracy and republic, and I traveled to India without Dare to say that the revolution will stand on its own.”

In July 1923, Sun Yat-sen expressed his strong dissatisfaction to the reporter of "New York Times" because he could not seek the support of the United States.In December of the same year, because Sun Yat-sen wanted to intercept the customs in Guangdong, he encountered warships sent by Britain, the United States, France, Japan, Italy, Portugal and other countries to Guangzhou to demonstrate against him.He finally announced angrily: "We are no longer dependent on the West, we will unite with Russia." In 1923, Wang Zaoshi published an article in "Tsinghua Weekly" saying: "I have 120,000 points of admiration for Mr. Liang Rengong who talks about learning; I have 120,000 points of doubt for Mr. Liang Rengong who talks about politics." This is the defense of the Kuomintang.Ten years later, Wang criticized the Kuomintang equally fiercely. Friends said he was contradicting himself, and Wang asked: Did I change?Or has the KMT changed?

Sun Yat-sen was invited to go north, but after arriving in Tianjin, the cooperation between the Feng and Anhui departments and him broke down.Zhang Zuolin said at the banquet: "I am a supporter. If I can support someone with the surname Duan today, I can support someone with the surname Sun. But I only oppose communism. If communism is implemented, it will be bloody." Hu Hanmin once told Zhang Xueliang that there were two people in front of the Prime Minister, one was Wang Jingwei and the other was him.The Prime Minister always sends Wang Jingwei outside to handle diplomacy. To do these things, you have to tell lies, not the truth.Therefore, Wang Jingwei got used to telling lies to everyone.And Hu Hanmin is in charge of internal affairs, so to be honest, he said everything in front of the Prime Minister, but he offended the Prime Minister.

In 1927, when the Special Committee of the Border Region in Jinggangshan held a meeting, every participant had to hang a red cloth strip on his chest, and write his or her origin.Chen Zhengren had studied at a normal school for two years. Although he hadn't finished junior high school, he was considered an intellectual among these rough men.When the election was held and he was elected as the secretary of the special committee, someone said: "No, no, the Communist Party is a party of the proletariat. How can an intellectual be a secretary?! Re-election, re-election..." As a result, he worked in a printing factory The apprentice Tan Zhenlin was the secretary, and Chen was Tan's subordinate, but Chen Zhengren did all the secretary's work.

The Northern Expedition was completed, the Northeast changed its flag, and China achieved a formal unification. Chiang Kai-shek's foundation was solid, and he began not to buy the elders' account.One day, Zhang Jingjiang chatted with Wu Zhihui, Cai Yuanpei, Li Shizeng and others, vented their dissatisfaction with Jiang, and asked everyone to speak to Jiang.Wu Zhihui said that Mr. Jiang has a stubborn personality and great self-confidence, so it is not appropriate for anyone to speak out.It is unwise to force it knowingly that it will not help, and it will only arouse unnecessary resentment.Wu also said, if you use a rough word, Mr. Jiang was born as a ruffian. Now that he has a yellow robe, he has suddenly become the chairman of the government. He is naturally arrogant.It's not the same as when I was in Shanghai in the past, delivering letters and running errands for Mr. Jingjiang.It's best for everyone to trust him and let him do it freely, without making excessive claims about state affairs.It is of course his duty to do well; it is also his responsibility to do poorly, so as not to blame others.

In April 1954, Wu Guozhen met Hu Shi, who had just come to the United States from Taiwan, and the two had quite the same political ideas.During the conversation, Hu Shi asked about the number of political prisoners in Taiwan, and Wu replied that there were more than 10,000.Hu Shi said: "You are wrong. I just came back. I estimate that there are more than one hundred thousand people."Wu had no choice but to publish the conversation. Pan Huaisu is one of the founders of the China Peasants and Workers Democratic Party.Pan had a deep friendship with Deng Yanda. In 1930, he and Deng Yanda organized the Provisional Action Committee of the Chinese Kuomintang (the predecessor of the Chinese Peasants and Workers Democratic Party) in Shanghai. They held meetings in the house, and Ji Fang stood guard outside the door.After the founding of the People's Republic of China, Ji Fang became the chairman, and Pan Huaisu was a commoner scholar.Once when Pan Huaisu went to look for Ji Fang, Ji told Pan that you should not come here again.

During the Anti-Rightist Movement, relevant parties asked Long Yun to admit that he had formed a "Long-Chen alliance" with Chen Mingshu. If he could agree, they would guarantee that his living conditions would remain the same.Long Yun refused on the spot. He said, this has really become a big joke. Everyone in the country knows that I was the local emperor and warlord in Yunnan in the past, and Chen Mingshu was the chairman of the Guangdong Provincial Government of the Kuomintang and acted as the president of the pseudo-Executive Yuan. direct lineage.How can it be possible to pinch the two of us together like a horse? After Puyi was reformed, the government organized him and other war criminals to visit the Northeast. They visited the local farmhouse. The owner, Aunt Liu, didn’t know who they were. The era of eating bran swallowing vegetables.Aunt Liu opened the lid of an urn in the corner of the room and showed Pu Yi the rice inside.Her only son laughed and said: "What's there to see about rice?" She immediately retorted: "There is nothing to see now, but how many times have you seen it in Kant's year?" He bowed his head and said, "The Kant you are talking about is the traitorous Emperor Puyi of Manchukuo, and I am. I apologize to you." Several pseudo-ministers and generals who went with me also stood up: "I am the pseudo-servant who caught the laborers. Minister of the Ministry..." "I am the minister of the Ministry of Agriculture who is engaged in the production of grain and grain..." "I am the commander of the puppet military region who arrested the soldiers for the devil..." Aunt Liu was stunned, and finally wiped her tears and said: "The matter It’s all over, so let’s not talk about it! As long as you are willing to learn well, listen to Chairman Mao’s words, and be a decent person, you will be fine!” In 1962, Chen Yusun led the Shanghai Pingtan Troupe to perform in Hong Kong. After his return, he was often invited by various parties to give reports.Once he had a meeting with many people, and he went to listen to a phone call. When he returned to the conference table, he was displeased and said sharply, "I just can't figure it out. I have to talk about what's wrong with Hong Kong..." The truth was revealed for a moment, But he still cursed Hong Kong when he gave a speech on stage. In the early 1960s, young people such as Guo Shiying, Zhang Heci, and Cao Tianyu were quick to think. They were moved and painful by the society of the times, but they were powerless and wanted to do something.Their tendencies are closely watched by their parents and the police.Guo Shiying's father, Guo Moruo, once talked with Jian Bozan about the children's thoughts, and showed Jian the young man's writing, and asked Jian how he felt.Jian asked Guo Moruo back.Guo replied: "It's a bit like when we were young." Jian Bozan said: "It's a pity that the times are different, and this way is not good now." From December 15, 1964 to January 14, 1965, the central government held a working conference for more than a month to discuss and formulate the "Post Twenty-Three Articles."Before the meeting, Deng Xiaoping thought it was a general report meeting called by the Secretariat of the Central Committee, so he said to Mao: The chairman is not in good health, so you don't need to attend.After a dispute with Liu Shaoqi, Mao Zedong held the party constitution in one hand and the constitution in the other, and went to the venue to ask the crime: "One didn't ask me to hold a meeting (referring to Deng Xiaoping), and the other didn't ask me to speak (referring to Liu Shaoqi). Why did the party constitution and the constitution be taken away from me? s right?" Under Luo Yifeng's arrangement, Zhang Yihe and Zhang Lifan contacted each other, and Zhang Bojun and Zhang Naiqi met in the living room of Kang Tongbi's house.This was the only time they met during the "Cultural Revolution", and it was also the last meeting of their lives.Zhang Bojun was dressed in old Chinese style silk cotton clothes and trousers.Li Jiansheng said: "I went to see Mr. Kang and Naiqi, and I didn't change my clothes." Zhang Bojun said: "The older the better, walking on the street so that people can't recognize me." Zhang Naiqi was wearing pure white Western shirt, gray sweater and suit pants, covered with a navy blue woolen coat.Zhang Yihe said, "Uncle Zhang, why do you still look like a chief?" Zhang Naiqi stood up while talking, held up his pipe and said, "Little Yu, this is not the appearance of a chief, but the appearance of a human being." During the "Cultural Revolution", Wu Han and Liao Mosha were locked in a room because they were fighting, Wu sighed from time to time, Liao Mosha wanted to jokingly relieve his sorrow, saying: "We two become famous actors, if we don't come. We can’t sing this play.” Wu smiled wryly: “What play are we singing?” Liao thought that Wu Han was the deputy mayor of Beijing, equivalent to an ancient magistrate. Thinking of Tao Yuanming, he said: “This play is called "Five Buckets of Rice Bending the Waist"!" Zhang Shizhao finished writing "Liu Wen Zhi Yao" and handed it over to Zhonghua Book Company. There were many ideas in the book that were unique at the time and some were taboo, but because Zhang was the curator of the Central Museum of Culture and History, Zhong Hua Book Company did not dare to make decisions without authorization. Ask the Propaganda Department of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China.Kang Sheng, who was in charge of publicity, said: "We are so short on paper, why publish his book? Don't give it to him." So Zhonghua Book Company returned the manuscript. In 1969, Zhang sent the manuscript to Mao Zedong. Mao not only read it himself (and said he would read it again), but also passed it on to Liu Shaoqi, Zhou Enlai, Deng Xiaoping, Peng Zhen and others for reading, and asked Kang Sheng to read it carefully and put forward revision suggestions. , revised and published by the author.Kang Sheng then instructed Zhonghua Book Company to actively publish this book. During the "Cultural Revolution", Ren Jiyu asked to go back to the cadre school to work. He felt embarrassed when he started to carry the dung basket. He only picked up the dung from livestock. When he came across a pile of human dung, did he pick it?He lingered on the side of dung for a while, when he thought of Chairman Mao's teaching: "The cleanest are workers and peasants, even though their hands are black and their feet are covered with cow dung, they are still cleaner than bourgeois and petty bourgeois intellectuals." It’s all clean.” Chairman Mao’s teachings made him realize that it wasn’t the dung that was dirty, but his own thoughts.He wrote a poem to express his determination to transform his worldview: "Guanshan Qianzhong has overtaken from the beginning, and the poor and lower-middle peasants are my teachers." Jin Yuelin once said: "I have cultivated people who only play conceptual games, do not care about politics, and are even reactionary. For example, Yin Fusheng (Yin Haiguang) is a reactionary I have trained. He is now serving the Chiang gang in Taiwan. "I advocate a purely technical point of view in logic and a point of view on genius education. In this respect, I especially praise Wang Hao. He is still staying in an American university and serving American imperialism."
