After the two sat down, Gu Weijun said: "It is very normal to have a voice in the government. Even if there are many people in charge of the country like the United States, it will be messy."

Tang Shaoyi smiled bitterly and said, "Shaochuan, you don't understand what I mean."

“You mean…”

"If China had not become a prosperous country, it would have become a dangerous country." Tang Shaoyi concluded, "In his hands, China would only take two completely opposite paths."

Gu Weijun was shocked, and Tang Shaoyi smiled bitterly and said, "You and I will try our best to prevent Xiusheng from going to a dangerous road."

The conversation with Gu Weijun did not last long. After Wang Maoru sent him away, he called Li Muyu and asked him to check Gu Weijun's new father-in-law Huang Zhonghan to see what his relationship was. When Li Muyu heard that he was the king of Java sugar industry, he said, "Master Marshal, don't worry, leave this to us. It's just that our CIC Department's business has not yet expanded to Southeast Asia, so it takes a little time."

"I know, I'll leave it all to you." After putting down the phone, Wang Maoru simply stopped thinking about it. This person could become the king of the sugar industry in the Dutch colony. It is estimated that this person has a close relationship with the Dutch, but China and the Netherlands have nothing to do with each other, and the two countries did not even recognize each other's diplomacy. Could it be that the Dutch government wants to open up the Chinese market? It is very possible.

Finally, it was approaching the end of the 12th year of the Republic of China, and Congress finally confirmed the final candidates for the five presidents on Christmas Day in the West.

These five people are 38 years old interim lecturer at Peking University, former head of national defense, and marshal Shangwu, Wang Maoru, 49 years old Zhejiang businessman, with a net worth of millions, Lin Xun, known as the King of Zhejiang Silk. 69 years old former Qing Hanlin Hunan gentry, known as Jingxuecheng, a half-bag scholar, and 51-year-old Guangzhou East-West Medical Doctor, who has been studying in Japan and returning to China, and Huang Zucheng, who has both good medical ethics and reputation in Guangzhou Songri Hospital. The last one is unexpected. No one expected that it was Aisin Jueluo and Zaifeng.

Among the five people nominated by Congress, although Lin Xun is a business family, the businessmen's family is not recognized as a prominent family. Although the old Hanlin Jingxuecheng was called a Hunan genius when he was young, he was born in the Qing Dynasty. His father and mother were raised by his grandparents since childhood. Although he was very knowledgeable, he was a good scholar. However, he was from a poor family until Cixi announced the abolition of the imperial examination. He was still an editor in the Hanlin Academy. Doctor Huang Zucheng, let alone Guangdong Province, is afraid that no one except Guangzhou City knew him. The most important thing is that the hospital he worked for was a Japanese hospital. Although his medical ethics were very good, he was always a bit suspicious of selling out the country in this xenophobic era. There was the most controversy over Zaifeng's nomination. It can be seen that this time, no one from a political field was born in the political circle, and none of them were from a prominent family.

But for Zaifeng, he was the royal family of the previous dynasty, how could he run for election? Could it be that he would not have to be restored? Zaifeng did not expect that he just filled out an application form casually, and it was handed to him by his daughter. Zaifeng's daughter said that since we are citizens of the Republic of China, even though we are bannermen, we must enjoy equal rights, and Dad, you must run for election. Zaifeng's natural way is absolutely impossible to be elected with his own background.

The Qing Dynasty was gone, and the era of privileges of bannermen was no longer there. Not to mention privileges, in the government, there were very few bannermen who were officials. Everyone knows that it was difficult to get involved in the officialdom. In the previous dynasty, because they were all from bannermen, no matter how they were chaotic, it was no big deal. They were all relatives. If something happened, they would be in peace, even if they killed someone and spent some money, they would be left alone.

But now, the Han people are in charge of the government, and the privileges of the bannermen are gone. Moreover, the nobles in Beijing are all used to the blood of politics and ask their children not to interfere with any politics. However, looking at the innocent faces of their daughters, Zaifeng was also afraid that their young hearts would be discriminated against, so he signed up. The daughters immediately went to the parliament to submit Zaifeng's application form.

When Congress approved the presidential candidate qualification, it suddenly discovered this application form. The first thing that caught my eye was the surname: Aisin Gioro style.

royal?

It should be said that it was the royal family of the previous dynasty, and the royal family of the previous dynasty dared to participate in the election? They really had the courage to be ambitious. Now that the Han nationality is in power, why are the bannermen joining in the fun? However, the bannermen are not unable to be officials. In fact, there are many bannermen in the military and political affairs, including Pu Ji, Gui Fang, and many Mongolians, such as Harbala, and even Hui people like Ma Liuzhou and their sons, but the identity of this royal family is extremely sensitive.

Who is this person? When I saw the name again, it was Aisin Gioro Zaifeng, the former regent, and the congressional staff in charge of statistics, was shocked and quickly reported to the four speakers. The four speakers also found it incredible. The Speaker Liu Enge immediately suggested to tear him apart and ban Zaifeng's election qualification. Liang Qichao immediately stopped him and said: "Now the people of the country are equal and everyone has the right to run for the president. Why ban it? If so, wouldn't the Five-Grand Republic of the Republic of China deceive the world? If you ban his fair qualification today, and the Han people in our country tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, people will be in agitation. Do you believe it?"

"Zhuo Ru said right." Senator Shi Shaoyang immediately said: "Not only can we not stop it, we must also set a model."

"Set a model?" Liu Enge was amused and cried, saying: "Does this move remind people of the restoration of the previous dynasty?"

"Just the opposite." Shi Shaoyang smiled, "It is a foregone conclusion that the Grand Marshal runs for president now. It makes people feel that the previous dynasty was restored, but was defeated by the Grand Marshal head-on, so that the Chinese people can see that as long as the Grand Marshal comes to power as president, all monsters and monsters must kneel down and surrender."

"Hahahaha... It's really treacherous." Liu Enge laughed.

Liang Qichao frowned. He didn't expect that this meaning was the same. He didn't expect that just Zaifeng could even think of so many things. It seems that he is really not as thorough as the Senate who was a scholar in politics.

Deputy Chief of Senate Wu Zhaolin remained silent and smiled and agreed, just like Xu Shu entering Cao's camp, unable to figure out a single plan. However, Liang Qichao could not see through whether he supported or opposed the bannerman to participate in the election. However, with the joint efforts of Shi Shaoyang and Liu Enge, Zaifeng's votes among members of Congress gradually increased.

When someone notified Zaifeng that he became one of the five presidential candidates, Zaifeng was so scared that the teacup in his hand almost fell to the ground. He was stunned for a long time and said to his daughters with a wry smile: "You not only have you made me suffer, but also have implicated your brothers in the palace."

"Ah? Why did you implicate the fourth brother (fourth brother)?" Several daughters immediately said in surprise.

Zaifeng said: "The fourth brother (Puyi) still lives in the Forbidden City, which is already dissatisfied with many Han officials. Now that I am running for president, can't I guarantee that someone will think of Zhang Xun's restoration? When Zhang Xun's restoration was restored, I didn't even come out of the mountain, how could I win me over? Do you know why?"

"Why? Ama?"

Zaifeng sighed: "My identity is extraordinary. I am the Regent, my son is the emperor. If I participate in the restoration, if I fail, all our bannermen will be implicated. If I succeed, I will be a puppet. You guys, you don't know anything after all. You are too young. I failed to become an official. Today, I have also seen your ama clearly. Now our bannermen's fortune is gone, and we can never get out of talents like the Saint Ancestor. A group of mediocre talents who want to live well should be low-key and be a submissive people. If you go high-profile, you will not die only."

"Oh, it's bad now." Zaifeng shook his head, "I don't know who wants to harm me, who wants to harm me. I'm afraid that it's the Forbidden City, I won't be able to live there anymore."

"Dad, Ying'er doesn't understand why the fourth brother can't be in the Forbidden City?" asked the third princess Yunying.

Zaifeng looked at his children and sighed, "Look at these five presidential candidates, except for me and the Grand Marshal, the other three are foils. In other words, the result must be that the Grand Marshal will be elected in the end, and I will be elected as Vice President if nothing unexpected happens - I am the Vice President, and my son is the emperor in the Forbidden City. Is this appropriate? Will our bannermen rebel again? In order to show that the bannermen will never rebel, the fourth brother must move out of the Forbidden City to show the attitude of the bannermen. In this way, I forced my son to move out of the Forbidden City, and I became the eternal sinner of our bannermen."

The few daughters could not see what was behind this, and they were anxious. Zaifeng sighed and said, "I will go to Congress tomorrow to apply for disqualification. Alas! This matter has been a mess, and I have become the target of public criticism." He suddenly thought of something and said, "No, I will go tonight."

"Ama, how can Congress have a job so late?" reminded the third princess Yunying.

Zaifeng said helplessly: "I won't go to Congress, I'm going to find the Grand Marshal."

However, it disappointed Zaifeng, and Wang Maoru also rejected his plea on the pretext of having no right to interfere with the Congress. Zaifeng returned home and sighed, and was seriously ill. The illness came too timely, and then submitted a message to the Congress that Zaifeng was seriously ill and could not run for the election. As a result, two days before the election, Zaifeng's name was cut off from the overall list of candidates.

There are only four candidates, Wang Maoru, Lin Xun, Jing Xuecheng, and Huang Zucheng.
