Republic of China: Our great warlord has many children and many blessings

Yuan Shikai, who was born into the Yuan family in Xiangcheng, Henan Province, grew up in fine clothes and fine food, and became a successful man.

Therefore, Yuan Shikai was not very greedy for money.

After serving as an official for many years, Yuan Shikai handled countless amounts of money throughout his life, but he was"greedy for power but not money."

If one were to judge by how much money he made, there would be many of his subordinates in Beiyang who were richer than him.

Just Lu Jianzhang, who had been the governor of Shaanxi for more than a year, plundered dozens of carts of wealth, and ended up benefiting Shen Hao.

Not counting Duan Zhigui and others, they are all money-grubbing masters.

Although he is not as rich as these people, he is still the president, his family is big and his business is big, and a skinny camel is bigger than a horse.

The children can also get some meat.

Yuan Shikai also knew that his time was short, so when he was still conscious, he called all his children and concubines in the family.

Let Xu Shichang preside over the division of property.

At the same time, Zhou Di and Lu Bicheng were asked to assist in supervision.

Both women had worked in the presidential palace, so Yuan Shikai had some understanding of their character.

Yuan Shikai weakly pointed to the table next to him and said to Xu Shichang:"Put a list in that drawer. All cash, deposits, stocks, etc. totaling more than 2.6 million silver dollars.

Yu Zhi's family property is all here.

These things, you can"Divide it up."

Yuan Shikai had told him before, so Xu Shichang did not refuse.

When he came to the living room with his daughters, Xu Shichang glanced at everyone and said expressionlessly:"The president once told me that the

2.6 million will be divided into 30 parts, each of which is more than 80,000 yuan, one for each of the seventeen sons, and one for the aunt and wife." One share for the childless, and one share for the two unmarried girls.

Does anyone have any opinions?"

The other children are all concubines and have no say."

However, Mrs. Yu disagreed and said:"Yuan Keding is the eldest son of a legitimate son, so he should be allocated 400,000 silver dollars. The other sons of concubines should each receive 120,000 silver dollars. Each of the daughters will only be given a dowry of 8,000 silver dollars.

Each concubine will not receive any additional share. The money will be shared with the sons they gave birth to.

The aunts and wives of each house will share some of the gold, silver, soft goods, agates, jades, silks, furs, etc. that the master had during his lifetime." The fifth aunt said:"The direct lineage is not just a son of Yuan Keding.

Kewen is also a direct line."

Yuan Keding on the side said hurriedly:"I support Xu Xiang's first allocation. As for the direct line and not the direct line, I won't talk about it."

Yuan Keding, the eldest son of the direct line, said so. The others opened their mouths and ignored them..

The sixth aunt Ye Zhen didn't care, her thoughts had already been on Shen Hao.

Don't care about money at all.

As soon as Yuan Datou died, he took his daughter and followed Shen Hao.

There is no use asking for money.

Fifth Aunt wanted to say something too much, but she didn't say anything when she saw no one supported her.

She used to be the housekeeper of the house, and a lot of the family's property was in her name, and this fortune was not included.

Xu Shichang saw that no one objected, so he said:"In that case, it's settled."

Suddenly, the fifth concubine seemed to remember something and looked at Yuan Keding with squinted eyes.

Immediately said:"I have a question."

Xu Shichang said doubtfully:"Fifth Aunt, what are you talking about?""

"Before the event, I remember that my husband had secretly deposited 2 million francs in a French bank to meet urgent needs.

It was agreed at that time: In addition to his own signature, the withdrawal must be signed by Secretary of State Xu Xiangyou and former Foreign Minister Sun Baoqi; if he dies, the withdrawal must be signed by his eldest son Yuan Keding.

Why is this money not included in the inheritance?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes turned to Yuan Keding.

Yuan Keding hesitated and didn't know what to say.

Yuan Jizhen and Yuan Fuzhen didn't respond to the money.

The exchange rate between francs and oceans was 5:1.

After all, it was only 400,000 yuan.

After they followed Shen Hao, Shen Hao gave them 10,000 yuan every month, plus all kinds of jewelry, emeralds and the like, which were not worth the money.

Xu Shichang said :"If this money is meaningful to you, you can ask the president directly. Today we are only distributing these inheritances, and other things are not included.

Whoever the president wants to give, that is the president's right."

As soon as he said this, everyone was speechless.

Even the fifth concubine couldn't say it anymore.

After all, among these people, she has benefited the most.

She was also afraid of saying too much. It aroused public outrage.

Those concubines and concubines had no say at all.

It would be nice to give them money.

Seeing that no one objected, Xu Shichang began to distribute.

It was Yuan Shuzhen, Yuan Zhongzhen, Yuan Fuzhen, and Yuan Jizhen who married Shen Hao's daughters also had property.

However, none of them asked for it. Instead, each of them received a hundred yuan as a token gift, and the rest was given to sisters or concubines with whom they were close.

This also made the girls have a good impression of him.

Later On the bed, Yuan Shikai's breathing suddenly became rapid and his face turned red. The doctor was shocked and said,"This is a flashback."

Yuan was on his deathbed. Soon, Xu Shichang, Wang Shizhen, Zhang Zhenfang, Duan Qirui, Li Yuanhong, Yuan Keding and others hurried over. Come here.

Lu Bicheng wanted to go after hearing this. She wanted to know who Yuan Shikai passed on as president.

But the guards stopped her and refused to let her in.

Wang Yufen, on the other hand, was calm and said with a smile:"Bicheng, don't worry about it, no matter who becomes the president." President, I will not offend them either.

I guess they won't be able to sit still."

Lu Bicheng said:"That's different. Once I become the president, I will have great righteousness and it will be much easier to do things."

"I don't understand this, but I know that if you don't have the strength, no one will listen to you even if you are the president."

In Yuan Shikai's bedroom, Yuan Shikai, who was on his deathbed, looked around and said weakly:"Is Shen Hao here?"

Everyone looked at each other, this is confusion Yes.

Xu Shichang attached himself and said:"Vice President Shen is still in Guangdong and cannot come over."

At this time, Yuan Shikai was lying on his back on the hospital bed. He was already weak and breathing heavily. He tremblingly said to Xu Shichang:"Ju Ren, come to me...it's already...of no use...."

Looking at Yuan Shikai's dying appearance, Xu Shichang couldn't help but burst into tears.

He thought about how high-spirited and arrogant Yuan Shikai was back then, but at this time, he was betrayed and separated from his relatives, and he was lingering. He turned his back and wiped away his tears, and gently comforted him,"The president doesn't have to. Anxiety, just take good care of yourself for a few days."

As soon as he finished speaking, Yuan fell into a coma again. (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!) He remained in a coma until early in the morning, and woke up again with the help of century-old ginseng slices.

Xu Shichang saw that Yuan's deadline had arrived, He sighed inwardly and hurriedly whispered,"Does the president have anything else to explain?"

Yuan Shikai was out of breath, his eyes turned white, and he only uttered two words,"Covenant... Covenant."

When Yuan said the covenant, everyone was wondering whether it was the Old Covenant or the New Covenant. Yuan Keding was the first to say:""Golden Chamber and Stone House"

Everyone looked at Yuan Shikai, who seemed to be nodding but was speechless.

But there were old and new covenants. The old covenant was the"Provisional Constitution of the Republic of China" passed by the Kuomintang Senate in Jinling, and the new covenant was It was made by Yuan Shikai himself.

According to the old treaty law, after the president dies, the vice president should take over. This is also the requirement of the Southern Protectorate Army to cease war and negotiate peace.

According to the new treaty law, the president nominates three people and writes them on the Jiahe Golden Slips. Hidden in the Golden Chamber and Stone House.

After the president dies, he takes it out and selects a successor as the president. The so-called Golden Chamber and Stone House is a stone chamber built in Zhong Nanhai with white marble and the door is made of iron.

Then there is a stone chamber hidden in the stone chamber. The rectangular iron cabinet, dyed gold throughout, is the"Golden Chamber", and its function is similar to the current safe.

The list of presidential candidates is placed in this cabinet.

There are three keys to the Golden Chamber Stone House, respectively. In the hands of the president, prime minister and president of the Senate, you have to get two at the same time to open the stone house.

By three o'clock in the morning, Yuan Shikai, who stirred up the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China, served as governor of Zhili, minister of Beiyang, and also served as the president. Finally, A generation of tycoons who had been addicted to the emperor finally closed their eyes permanently[]

After Yuan Shikai's death, everyone was anxious about who would be the president.

He hurriedly opened the stone room of the golden cabinet and took out the Jiahe gold slips. He was surprised to see Duan Qirui, Xu Shichang and Shen Hao written on them.

The name Shen Hao was originally written by Yuan Keding, and Yuan Keding naturally knew about this.

Otherwise, there would not be such a rush to add the"Golden Chamber and Stone House".

No one expected that when Yuan Shikai was seriously ill, he crossed out his name and changed it to Shen Hao without telling his son.

However, everyone understands.

Although Yuan Shikai was a key figure in overthrowing the Qing court, he was restored as emperor.

Although the imperial system was finally abolished, everyone had rebelled against his relatives and even the Beiyang military system he had built would not listen to his changes. His own position was almost unsafe. How dare he expect the Beiyang generals to support his incompetent son.

This can be regarded as Yuan Shikai's brilliance. He gave way to talents before his death, which at least saved his descendants.

But for the position of president, according to Old Testament law, Li Yuanhong and Shen Hao are vice presidents.

According to the new agreement, Li Yuanhong and Shen Hao are both on the list of the Golden Chamber and Stone House.

Therefore, regardless of the Old and New Testament laws, it is appropriate to be succeeded by Li Yuanhong and Shen Hao.

But there is a problem involved here.

Li Yuanhong did not have his own power and was a mere commander, while Shen Hao had the support of the Guangdong army and a sphere of influence.

Sichuan, Hunan, Hubei, Guangdong, Guangxi, Shaanxi, Guizhou, Yunnan, Fujian, Wanwan and Dongfang provinces; it can be said that one person owns half of the country.

Who can resist such strength.

When Li Yuanhong became president, Shen Hao was the first to refuse.

Duan Qirui also has his own ambitions and does not want Shen Hao to be president.

Although Li Yuanhong is a mere commander, he also wants to be president.

Who wouldn’t want this position?

Besides, Shen Hao has offended a lot of people by winning so much territory.

Both the Zhili clique and the Anhui clique were offended.

Of course, everyone will not support Shen Hao.

Once Shen Hao gains power, they will lose power.

Duan Qirui, Wang Shizhen, Zhang Zhenfang, Li Yuanhong, Yuan Keding and others all understand this.

Li Yuanhong and Duan Qirui looked at each other and nodded silently, as if they had reached some kind of deal.

Duan Ruiqi gave Wang Shizhen a look.

Wang Shizhen, who understood the situation, coughed lightly.

Seeing that everyone was silent, Wang Shizhen, the leader of the Three Beiyang Heroes, stood up first and said:"In terms of qualifications, Vice President Li is the earliest vice president, not to mention, he is also the first in this"Golden Chamber and Stone House". His personal name, qualifications, experience and prestige are all sufficient. I think the president’s intention is to make Vice President Li the president." Duan Qirui nodded and said,

"I think it’s good too."

Not satisfied and unwilling to participate in these matters, I chose to remain silent..
