The Olympics will be in a few hours. I wish you all the opening ceremony time to get up!

************************************************************

The next day, Song Jiaoren went to the Presidential Palace alone for a banquet. No one knew what he and Yuan Shikai had specifically talked about, but it was said that someone saw Yuan Shikai send Song Jiaoren out in person. From this point of view, they seemed to have a harmonious conversation with each other.

After returning, Song Jiaoren didn't say much about this matter, but just once again told everyone to continue to contact comrades inside and outside the party in the south, that everything should be based on stability. He himself ran back and forth in the two houses of Congress to appease the hearts of those people who became a little fluctuating due to the electricity connection, and to speed up the progress of Congress work.

A few days later, Fang Zida suddenly received a notice to ask him to attend the party meeting. When he arrived at the place, he was shocked and found that except for a few people who were determined to oppose Yuan Shikai, almost all the members of the kmt party and the senators in Beijing had arrived. But what surprised him even more was still the future. After the meeting began, Song Jiaoren first talked about some attitudes toward the southern Sun Wen and others towards large loans, and repeatedly reminded everyone present that it is necessary to be stable and united at present, and that politics must not be carried out by impulse. Now constitutionalism is imminent, and topics such as recklessness cannot be destroyed by recklessness. Then he proposed the issue of establishing a party statistics group and actively introduced that Fang Zida should be the leader of the group. The main task is to assist the chairman, that is, Song Jiaoren, to statistics and adjustments of certain work within the party.

Fang Zida was caught off guard by this situation. Song Jiaoren had not exchanged any opinions with him before, and at such a meeting, Fang Zida only attended and did not have any right to express his opinions. What's more, after Song Jiaoren made this suggestion, Tang Shaoyi was the first to agree, and then Liao Zhongkai and others also expressed their agreement. What's even more strange is that Zhang Ji and the others also expressed their approval on the spot. Even Wang Zhengting, who was presented by Fang Zida, nodded with a smile.

The resolution was passed quickly, and Fang Zida became the leader of the party statistics group who was newly released. His official position in the party is now the leader of the kmt central statistics group. This name made Fang Zida dizzy on the spot. According to the Chinese customary name, the abbreviation of this department is almost the same as that of a notorious spy organization. Fang Zida inexplicably became such an official, and I really don’t know what to say.

The meeting was very brief. After the meeting, Fang Zida stayed specially. It seemed that Song Jiaoren and Tang Shaoyi had known what he wanted to ask for a long time and laughed at the same time. After Tang Shaoyi also said goodbye, Song Jiaoren called Fang Zida to sit down next to him again.

"Brother Zheng Ming blamed me for killing me first and then reporting?"

"It's a bit." Fang Zida did not hide it. Song Jiaoren laughed loudly after hearing this, and then his face gradually became solemn: "Yang Ming!" patted his hand, and Song Jiaoren said earnestly: "The situation is very bad now, which can be said to be quite bad. A few days ago, I had a private conversation with President Yuan. Finally, I got his promise to not use force for the time being, but you also know that such promises are indefinitely. Sun Yixian, a man who is the best at rebelling, is a layman in politics and national construction. To put it bluntly, it's just a mess! Where does he mess with politics like this? He always shouts slogans, turns on electricity? Rebellion? I think he is simply addicted to rebelling. If he doesn't rebel for a day, he will feel uncomfortable all day!"

As he spoke, Song Jiaoren became angry and picked up the cup on the table and drank a big saliva, continuing: "There is a saying in the West that politics is an art of compromise. What's wrong with everyone sitting down calmly and using political consultation to solve it? What's even more annoying is that some party members ignore the interests of the country and follow him, Sun Wen, and are fussing behind him, especially Chen Qimei, who are typical reasons for success and failure! Many good things are made by people like them. I, Song Jiaoren, are not exaggerating today. If I had really used swords and guns that day, I would probably be the first to be the turtle. Whether you Fang Zhengming believes it or not, I believe it anyway!"

Fang Zida was speechless, looking at Song Jiaoren who was a little excited, didn't know what to say.

Maybe it was because of the last time that Song Jiaoren really scolded Sun Wen and others. After the scolding, he gradually subsided. He shook his head and said, "Brother Zheng Ming has been joining the party for some time. I think he knows that the predecessor of our party, the Tongmenghui? Before the establishment of the Tongmenghui, there were about ten anti-Qing associations of all sizes, both large and small, and the Restoration Associations. Therefore, the member structure of our party has always been very complicated and is very different from those of the political parties in Western countries. If you don't want to say anything else, just one cross-party member is really a headache. Some of the comrades in the party have crossed two parties, some crossed three parties, and even more outrageously, there are people who crossed four parties and five parties. Take Prime Minister Zhao Bingjun as an example. He actually has eight party certificates in his drawer, one of which is our kmt.

Where is this party member who holds a true revolutionary concept? It is simply engaging in political speculation. Of course, there are special reasons in some aspects. Just like what revolutionary party was organized in Japan this time. With Sun Yat-sen's appeal within the party, some old party members could not refuse to invite him to join the new party. But in this way, the cohesion of our party has become a big problem. There are hundreds of factions within the party and there are parties in the party. What's wrong with this? Because of this, I suggest that this central statistics group be established within the party. Although Brother Zheng Ming is a new party member, I, and some old comrades in the party, think you are a talent who is capable and able to shoulder this important task. Therefore, I would like to ask Brother Zheng Ming to help me for this difficult country, to realize democracy, and to complete the real constitutional path!"

Song Jiaoren's sincere words made Fang Zida unable to argue. In the end, all the blame words that had already reached the mouth were swallowed and nodded to express his acceptance of the appointment.

Smiling with relief, Song Jiaoren carefully explained his main work to Fang Zida in the future, and told him about his work, Song Jiaoren, as the chairman, would fully support him. Until Fang Zida, who had already left, Tang Shaoyi, who had already left just now, quietly turned out from behind.

On the way back, Fang Zida was very depressed. He never expected that he would be suddenly put on the fire. Although he did not reject Song Jiaoren's appointment, he knew in his heart what the appointment was. In a trance, he even wondered if Song Jiaoren was treating himself as a gun and deliberately letting himself charge forward to attract firepower, thus achieving what purpose? But this idea just started. Fang Zida told him that it was unlikely. After all, in the days when he met Song Jiaoren, Song Jiaoren had always left him the impression of a humble gentleman and a conscientious politician. In Fang Zida's opinion, Song Jiaoren sometimes showed a little naive and innocent. Will such a person really change suddenly? Fang Zida could not answer this answer, but no matter what, he was indeed moved and convinced by Song Jiaoren's words today, but there was also a question that could not be answered in his heart.
