Chapter 37 Answer to the Peacemaker (December 2, 1903)

There are those who have self-signed peacemakers, and they have questioned them based on the doctrine of the recent "Xinmin Congbao", and I will answer them here. Reading No. 38 and No. 9 of "Xinmin Congbao", you can read great works, and know that when you come back from America, the purpose has been changed suddenly, it is marked to protect the king, to promote revolution, and to declare war on dissidents.I know that I have always argued strongly, and it is not easy to speak, but those who want to keep silent but still can't stop, are feeling uneasy in their hearts. (omitted in the middle) It is self-contained to make a revolution with one step. I can't argue with it deeply, but let me ask if fate cannot be revolutionized, but can the king be protected?In general, the means of the two parties are different from the protection of the king and the revolution, and their goals are not different.Today's Xinxue people are born out of the revolution, full of vitality, and can't be controlled once they start. Pushing back? The beginning also comes from saving the country.Pain at the fall of the clan, but the superiors are still weak, so I think about the revolution; the theory of revolution is the same, but I think about the lack of kindness that the Manchus usually treat me, and the thought of repelling the Manchus arises again.Things go hand in hand and they complement each other.who?Once there is a riot, there will inevitably be the heresy that there is no father and no king, to confuse people's hearts, and the neutral ones will surely disintegrate, and the crowd will fill up the shortcomings of the revolution.Therefore, Paiman has two meanings: to move the upper class with nationalism, and to move the lower class with revanchism.The concubine makes the old government dissolve, and the new government is easy to establish.But with a single step to refute its wrongdoing, people in the world will believe in its wrongdoing, will it help you with your step, or will it not help you?In ancient times, heroes have done things, and there is no strong person to make them agree with their own will, and there is no one who is picky about others' faults to get his own name.What's more, people from the two parties are fighting each other, swearing at each other, and attacking each other, so the old people will have an excuse, and when will the world's major events come true?Today, the opportunity for disaster is becoming more and more urgent, and the division and recommendation are coming, the fate cannot be changed, and the king cannot be protected.In the future, white people will dominate our Central Plains and control my life, and the two parties will work together to think of a way to restore it, and it will not be possible.There must be hesitation and looking, crying bitterly, blaming those who started the lawsuit today, and regretting it is too late.Ziqi thinks about it, and bears to treat the world as a trifling matter?

Answer: The peacemaker does not know who he is, but if he reads his words, he must be a sincere and patriotic person, there is no doubt about it.Its so-called fate cannot be changed, and the king is not easy to protect. This is the most complicated problem among our 400 million people today.This question is very long, and it is beyond the scope of this short story.As far as the last section is concerned, it is said that strong people make people have the same will as oneself, and it is said that picking on others is not in the name of self-improvement. This is really not what I dare to accept.Anyone who speaks, expresses his own opinion.The speaker and the listener each have their own freedom, and there is absolutely no one who can force them to be the same as themselves.When I talk about the nature of Chinese people, it is easy to be diverted by an argument. There is the view of a hundred dogs barking, and the nature of jellyfish and shrimps.We feel guilty for a major flaw, but how can we force others to agree with our own ideas?As far as it is called picking people's faults, it is true.Those who take care of the faults are not only people's faults, even my faults, how dare I hide them?My husband has nothing to do with destructiveism, and it should be recognized by the whole world.Then how can I be an enemy to those who are different from me?To say that in the name of self-improvement is even more far-fetched.Resisting against the climax of public opinion, he will be reviled by the majority, this is true; if it makes the humble person gain a good name, is it more likely to do this?I advocated sabotage in the past, and my teachers and friends said it was a good name. Today I am against sabotage, and the critics may call it a good name. I just do what I feel at ease.I know the length of my nature best by myself, and I also see it with the world.To put it bluntly, I can't conceal what I have in my heart (if I don't want to be straight, I can't), this is the one who is consistent.Among Xin Ren, teachers and friends are even more responsible for the supervision, but I can't change it in the end;I also don't know why it is like this.Therefore, those who think they are the truth will deny themselves and follow them, and those who think they are wrong will not go far away. Like bad smells, like lust, this is the strength of my life.If he is indeterminate and changes repeatedly, this is the shortest place in my life.Ten years ago, Mr. Nanhai used the "fluid nature" as a warning, and among the fearful friends, he often took it as a rule. This nature is really a great obstacle to my life's pursuit of virtue and cultivation.The reason why I can't resist the ancients is that I'm sitting on the wrong side. I dare not hide it, and I think about self-restraint every day, but there is no progress.It's a pity in my life, nothing more.If Yun has a good name, then I am confident, and this barrier can still be seen through.Those who want to establish faith must think of changing the world with their words, otherwise, how can they be ridiculed?Therefore, every opinion of my humble opinion, I want to express it to the fullest, so that there is no remaining accumulation, so I also accept it, and I think it is just a responsibility to the society.

It is the most heartbreaking thing that people from the two parties are fighting each other, swearing at each other, criticizing each other and so on.If I still know how to respect myself and refuse to engage in this bad habit, this should also be forgiven by the whole country.Just look at the spring and summer of last year, the reason why the newspapers made false accusations, and our party did not argue?Another example is a certain newspaper in Hong Kong. As usual, every day there must be an article of attacking each other. It regards the foreign powers as the third enemy, the Manchurian government as the second enemy, and the dissident parties among the people as the first enemy. Critics, too.If the husband uses pen and ink to challenge, then why should we have no excuses?Take a look at my relatives and friends, have you ever been a teacher against the enemy?If you don't bother to do anything straight, you can't do it with righteousness.And just like the last confessions of Qing Zhezhang and Zou, there are many people who have spoken in various newspapers, and this newspaper also refuses to enter their speeches, and sincerely respects their original intentions.What I call "peacemakers" think about each other in this way, and those who can worry about it must not be in my generation.If Husband expresses what I believe now but cannot myself, then I have said it, and I will express it in the future, but this is not meant to be reviled, nor is it meant to be attacked.My so-called challenge with public opinion, from now on, there are people who are difficult to distinguish by doctrine, and there is a reason for insisting on it. If the words are reasonable, I am happy to analyze them and appreciate them; What is added to others, if it is added to me, it is just received.Send a message to peacemakers, don't worry about this, I also want people with lofty ideals all over the country to teach peacemakers.As for the reason why I can't stop talking, the two articles "On the Russian Nihil Party" and "Answer to Feisheng" in the previous issue of this newspaper can also be seen a little bit of their intentions. The two parties worked together to think of ways of recovery.May the peacemaker calm down and look at it calmly, and even more to insult the teachings and solidify expectations.Hastily does not have.
