    "Jiangsu is our place. It was Yang Qiu who proposed the autonomy of the provinces. Why should he take it back now? We will fight to the end!"

    When Tang Juedun walked outside in a daze, Zhang Xingshu was still talking nonsense about Jiangsu autonomy.  ././ He also supports the autonomy of each province, but the problem is that autonomy is not **, and the central reform policies must also be implemented.  It¡¯s ridiculous that those people think that autonomy is equal to autonomy and no one can interfere. Isn¡¯t this a joke?  Of course, compared with these messy things, his mind is now filled with the shock of suddenly becoming the Minister of Agriculture.  To be honest, when he reached his position, he definitely wanted to climb up, but when the National Socialist Party was the dominant one, there were only a few ministerial positions for agriculture, forestry, and water conservancy left to be allocated. This was deliberately leaked through his fingers.

    Minister of Agriculture!  Looking at his treatment of the land, we can tell that Yang Qiu is serious about agriculture. It is definitely not comparable to those in the past. It can be imagined that this position is absolutely very important. The question isif I take over this position, will I still be a human being?  Before he finished thinking, Zhang Xingshu shouted when he saw him: "Hey, isn't this Brother Jueton? I want to congratulate you, Minister of Agriculture OK!" Although it was a good word, the tone was  But he was very cold and hard, and the eyes of everyone around him were all different, as if they were looking at another traitor.

    Tang Juedun ignored him. Arguing with such a person would only make things worse, so he went downstairs to meet Yang Qiu.  The position of Minister of Agriculture is so difficult that even if you want to, you can't do it.  But just as he reached the stairs, several young men in uniforms suddenly came towards him.

    "Who is Zhang Xingshu?"

    The young men were wearing crisp uniforms and had straight waists. At first glance, they were definitely not police officers. Instead, they looked like those strictly trained soldiers. As they went upstairs, a chilling smell instantly filled the air.  Tang Juedun felt that these young people had extraordinary origins, because they were all wearing Yuan-style pistols in their waists!  As a disciple of the Caotang, he was very familiar with Cai E and other people in the military, so he had heard about the unwritten regulations on domestic weapons distribution.  For example, in order to deal with bandits in the Northeast and Northwest, individuals can hold shotguns, but they must have a gun license.  Otherwise, it is illegal and anyone found will be shot and killed on the spot.  This Republic-style pistol has been recognized as a good gun by various countries since it participated in the European War. Britain and France also purchased patented imitations, so it is only equipped with the military and confidential units. The police and even the chief superintendent can only use domestically produced pistols.  Manufactured revolvers.  So these people are obviously not as simple as police officers.

    Although Zhang Xingshu is also a member of Congress, he was born as a salt merchant and has no military friends. Not only did he not see anything fishy, ??but instead, relying on his status as a member of Congress, he shouted with arrogance: "I am Zhang Xingshu, what do you guys want from me?"  Your work"

    The young man headed by him waved his hand directly without saying any nonsense: "Take it away."

    After receiving the order, several young men immediately started arresting people. Only then did Zhang Xingshu understand their intention.  He had the courage to shout: "Who are you? Who asked you to come? I am a member of Congress! Why do you arrest me? Then does Yang Qiu want to rebel!" He shouted like this, and all around him  The gentry and officials also gathered around.  Liang Qichao and Wang Zhaoming also ran out after hearing this and shouted: "Stop, why are you arresting members of Congress? Cheng Cheng was not killed by himself!"

    "Who said we are here for the case of martyr Cheng Cheng?" The young man squinted at Liang Qichao, took out his ID card from his pocket and waved it in front of Zhang Xingshu: "See clearly, we are from the Independent Commission Against Corruption of the Republic of China. From now on, you  You have the right to remain silent, but everything you say will be brought to court! Take it away."

    ICAC?  I am afraid that only Tang Juedun knows this organization best.  This was established three years ago to monitor the use of domestic infrastructure funds by the central government and prevent others from taking advantage of it.  In the three years since its establishment, its powers have been gradually expanded, and it has begun to intervene in some anti-corruption and corruption cases.  Liang Qichao also heard of this organization.  I also know who is behind them, but since I am here, how can I let them arrest people without any evidence!  So he stood up and said sternly: "No matter who sent you, you can't arrest people without evidence!"

    The young man obviously recognized Liang Qichao and Wang Zhaoming. After frowning, he suddenly pulled out his pistol: "Member Liang and Representative Wang (both are also members of Congress), the judicial system is stipulated in the constitution, so I have no right to explain to you, what's the matter?"  The matter can be heard in court. If you continue to interfere, I will arrest you for obstructing justice! As for why we took away Representative Zhang, you can ask yourself how he treated the three thousand acres of paddy fields in Huai'an County two years ago.  Bought it!¡±

    Zhang Xingshu, who felt he had the backing of Liang Qichao and Wang Zhaoming, felt like a rooster when he heard these words.  When everyone looked at him, their eyes were flashing and their faces were ashen.  Liang Qichao was so angry that he stamped his feet!  Do you still need an explanation?  Just by looking at this expression, you know that the field must have come from the wrong way!  The young man didn't say anything when he saw them. He put away his gun and waved again.  "Let me go, you can't arrest me, I am a member of Congress, I am a member of Congress" Zhang Xingshu's shouts getting farther and farther away were like a heavy hammer hitting him.Among the crowd, many were sweating on their foreheads.  Get ready to leave first.

    But they were still blocked at the door, and a large group of tax police and civil police began to call names: "Yan Wu, Shen Binglie, Zhou Ankuntake them away!" They were taken away one by one, each one shouting that they were wronged but with pale eyes.  The wandering officials and gentry made the surroundings as quiet as death.  Yang Qiu takes action!  And he shows no mercy when he strikes!  The Chamber of Commerce that had just a hundred people suddenly lost more than twenty faces. This proportion and scale are really scary!

    Almost at the same moment, everyone in northern Jiangsu and northern Anhui stared wide-eyed. Officials, landlords and gentry one after another were resisted arrest on various charges. Under such a dragnet, the murderers who had already been targeted by the security bureau were also arrested one after another.  .  Suddenly, there were cries and claps everywhere in both places. Hundreds of officials and gentry were escorted by the police to Nanjing. The scenes of a series of suspects even reminded people of what the Eight Banners did after entering the customs.  matter!  This scene made Liang Qichao unable to sit still, and took Tang Juedun with him to see Yang Qiu.  The two of them were members of Congress anyway, so Kuang Xukun politely brought them into the office.

    When he entered the house, Yang Qiu was packing his things and preparing to go back to Nanjing. When he saw the two of them, he seemed to have no idea what was going on outside. He greeted them with a smile: "Mr. Zhuo Ru! I have heard his name for a long time but have never had the opportunity to see him. I am sorry for you."  I'm really ashamed to come to visit me, I'm ashamed! Bohe, why don't you go make tea quickly." Seeing that Yang Qiu was still acting, Liang Qichao was so angry that he sat in front of him and said coldly: "Liang, you can drink the vice president's tea.  I can't afford it!" He said this out of anger.  After saying that, he regretted it. After all, Yang Qiu's actions over the years were obvious to all, so he didn't know how to speak later, so he had to keep his mouth shut first.

    Yang Qiu didn¡¯t care.  He smiled and sat in front of him.  When Tang Jueton saw the two of them competing with each other, he didn't say a word. He simply took the initiative and started talking first: "The Vice President has a busy schedule, so Jueton might as well speak frankly. Tang really doesn't dare to steal the position of Minister of Agriculture, and he hopes that the Vice President  President" Before he finished speaking, Yang Qiu's face turned cold. He deliberately glanced at Liang Qichao and whispered: "Brother Juedun, what's the reason? Agriculture is the foundation of our country, with 40 million mouths.  Waiting for food. Only when agriculture is strong can the country prosper. This is a great event. The Prime Minister chose you not only because of his own personal intention, but also because of Brother Jueton¡¯s talent!  Besides, so does Yang.  It has no power to decide on ministerial appointments.¡±

    Liang Qichao took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, and tried his best to keep himself calm and said: "Brother Ji Zhi has been very dedicated to his career in office for several years. He is careful and dare not neglect everything. If he says he can avoid it, won't it chill people's hearts? Why doesn't the Vice President stop?  Think about it?"

    Yang Qiu pretended to be heartbroken and looked at Liang Qichao: "Mr. Zhuo Ru is right. Minister Zhang was appointed in critical situations and has indeed made great achievements for our country's agricultural construction. This cannot be denied by anyone. So I have submitted to Congress  It was suggested that he be awarded a medal as a sign of national recognition. But now that the country has initially stabilized, it is time for those of us to think more about the future. With the current national situation, farmers cannot master advanced farming methods on their own, and it is impossible  Take the initiative to immigrate and expand land to generate income, let alone open canals and build reservoirs. Therefore, our generation should take the initiative to stand up and find ways to encourage immigrants to open up wasteland and expand land! To develop farming and water conservancy, and to learn from foreign advanced farming  method, and then spread it to the fields. These things you can¡¯t handle everything by being careful.¡±

    These words made Tang Juedun feel a little hot, and he went to study in the thatched cottage.  Isn't that why he traveled all over the country to innovate for these things? But when he saw Liang Qichao's face, he held back the words "I want to do it" in his throat.  Liang Qichao's face became increasingly gloomy and he said: "Reform is good, but we cannot blindly follow the path of power! The autonomy of each province is determined by the central government. Why is the vice president wantonly interfering in Jiangsu's affairs today? Those gentry officials may be wrong. But so and so  What is the difference between the Qing government's large-scale arrests? Now that the country is weak and the people are poor, it is time to recuperate and recuperate. Before, Vice President, your participation in the European War was already a risk. Fortunately, God was lucky enough to save the day. Once you have achieved your goal, it is time to stop.  , Such a large-scale war is not a blessing for the people, let alone the country! All knowledgeable people in the country are worried now! So I hope that the Vice President will issue a statement immediately to turn the war into friendship. "

    His words were an obvious accusation, and even Tang Juedun found them harsh. However, Yang Qiu continued to hold the tea cup unhurriedly, blowing away the white mist on it and raising his eyebrows: "Mr. Liang means Cheng  What did Comrade Cheng do wrong? Should the 400 million compatriots continue to be imprisoned in slavery? Should all the land be handed over to the gentry? Can local officials do their own thing without obeying the central government's orders? I would like to ask, Mr. Liang, what do you really want to do?  Autonomy, but still want to cause riots! Separate regimes!"

    Tang Juedun saw that his voice was getting louder and louder. In the end, he stamped the teacup on the table, his eyes became extremely cold, he knew it was going to be bad but he couldn't hold it back anymore.  Liang Qichao was irritated, thinking that he had always regarded himself as a constitutional government, and in the Gengzi Year he even threw his life and blood into the experiment.He tried to revitalize the country, but in the end he just wanted to fight for separatism. How could he tolerate it?  He stood up and replied with trembling fingers: "Yang Qiu! You, you, you this is destroying the republic! It is leading the country to a dead end. Don't think that you can do whatever you want with the military power in your hands. I must impeach you."  You! Impeach you!"

    "Members of Congress have the right to impeach government officials. Mr. Liang can just do it. Don't send it!" After Yang Qiu finished speaking, he turned his attention to Tang Juedun: "Minister Tang, think about everything. It is our generation's responsibility to  Leave something for the country, or block 40 million people from moving towards happiness!"

    Liang Qichao was completely furious. When he saw that Tang Juedun was thinking hard about Yang Qiu's words, he pointed at his nose and yelled: "Okay, okay! Juedun, you are going to be a traitor too! Okay"  The law of heaven is clear, the law of heaven is clear! I don¡¯t believe it, there is no room for reason in this world!¡±

    He was so angry that he pushed the door open and almost hit Yang Du who was about to come in. Tang Juedun smiled bitterly and nodded to Yang Qiu before chasing him out.  As the two left, the drama reached its climax. Especially after more and more Jiangsu officials and gentry were arrested, the whole country was even more frightened, and they were all wondering when the storm would end.  , will it affect them?

    Yang Qiu sat down slowly, breathed a sigh of relief, and waved to Yang Du: "It's time for the Land Reform Bill to be released. You can go back to Nanjing with me tonight.".
