Looking at Zhou Hao and the other two with curious eyes, Huang Sande smiled and said, "Since they are all going to write history and let the world judge the right and wrong, what can't be said? If you want to hear it, I'll talk about it. It just so happens that Brother Situ is here. If I have any omissions or mistakes, it's easy to correct it."

"If we want to say that our Zhigongtang and Sun Yat-sen in the Americas have a grudge, we have to start from the first year of the Republic of China..." With Huang Sande's voice in a low voice, Zhao Zhenzhong and the other two understood a series of grudges and entanglements between Zhigongtang and Sun Yat-sen after the Republic of China, understood why Chen Jiongming was elected as the first prime minister when the Zhigongtang was established, and also understood why the Zhigongtang and Sun Yat-sen had always adhered to the anti-Chiang position in history.

The cause of grudges also starts with the attempt of the Zhigongtang of America to become a legal organization in the country in the first year of the Republic of China. Since the late Qing Dynasty, due to the corruption and incompetence of the government and the inability to safeguard the rights and interests of overseas Chinese, overseas Chinese have suffered from foreigners. Overseas Chinese all hope that there will be a new government to safeguard the interests of overseas Chinese. Therefore, when Sun Yat-sen promoted the revolutionary idea of ​​overthrowing the Qing government among overseas Chinese, it received a warm response from various overseas Chinese groups. Overseas Chinese not only contributed money and efforts, but also many people devoted themselves to the revolutionary actions led by Sun Yat-sen.

After the Wuchang Uprising was successful and Sun Yat-sen returned to China, Huang Sande sent more than 30 telegrams to China in the name of Zhigongtang and other overseas Chinese groups in the name of Zhigongtang and other overseas Chinese groups, elected Sun Yat-sen as the interim president of the Republic of China. Due to the turmoil of overseas Chinese and the mutual restraint between some domestic forces, Sun Yat-sen was finally able to become the interim president of the Republic of China. It can be said that from the time Sun Yat-sen began to promote revolutionary ideas overseas to his appointment as the interim president, the Hongmen Zhigongtang in the Americas was powerful.

After the founding of the Republic of China, domestic people organized political parties to safeguard the interests of their groups, and for a while it was surging and political groups were numerous. The knowledgeable people in the Hongmen also knew that in the Republic of China era, when politics was open and secret societies wanted to continue to exist, they should form open political parties, participate in domestic political activities and strive to play a role in the state power, so as to safeguard the fundamental interests of the vast number of overseas Chinese and improve the political status of overseas Chinese. This is also a reflection of the legitimate desire of the majority of party members who were regarded as bandits under the long-term rule of feudalism of the Qing Dynasty, who were regarded as bandits, demanding democratic rights and progress.

After Sun Yat-sen returned to China and became the interim president, the Hongmen overseas, especially the Chigong-sen Church in the Americas, eagerly hoped that Sun Yat-sen Church could help Chigong-sen realize his wish to file a case in China and become a legal organization. However, this wish was shattered by Sun Yat-sen and his followers who had expressed deep gratitude to the Chigong-sen Church and the Hongmen overseas not long ago.

On January 9, 1912, Victoria, Canada, sent a telegram to Sun Yat-sen to become the president, and at the same time proposed to send representatives to return to China to "organize a complete political party, so I hope the president will recall the matters of Huating that day, and we must work together to support the matters of the complete political party." On the 29th, he wrote to Sun Yat-sen again, telling Sun Yat-sen that he had sent representatives to return to China to handle political party affairs. "I hope my brother would like to read the secrets of Huating, Gaoxi's bloody alliance, and the president is the leader of the Hongmen. Zheng Yicheng's political party is to comfort Chen Jinnan and Zheng Chenggong's spirit and comfort his fellow people's desires." Sun Yat-sen did not respond.

In March, Huang Sande, the boss of the American Zhigongtang, could not wait. He personally returned to China and submitted documents and donations of Hongmen Fundraising Bureau to the Nanjing Provisional Government. At the same time, he proposed to Sun Wen, who had resigned from the provisional president, the Hongmen case filing activities in China. Sun Wen asked Huang Sande to discuss it after returning to Guangzhou, and asked his descendants to go back to Guangzhou with Huang. However, when Huang Sande arrived in Guangzhou, Sun Wen took a downplay of the matter. On the surface, he agreed, but asked Huang to submit it to Guangdong Governor Hu Hanmin. Hu Hanmin looked down on the Hongmen even more despised him and threw bridges across the river. He actually left the matter behind and ignored Huang Sande's report. One month later, there was no news about the filing request of the American Zhigongtang in China.

Huang Sande repeatedly urged Sun Wen, but Sun Wen was furious because Huang was too forced. Although Sun Wen promised that he would send a letter to Hu Hanmin and asked Huang to bring another letter to Guangdong Customs Supervision Office to trade with Chen Shaobai and Shi Guyu to deal with the matter. However, Hu Hanmin made an excuse to refuse to see Huang Sande. Therefore, Huang Sande identified Sun and Hu filed a case against Hongmen. "Sun was sent back to Hu, and Hu was sent back to Sun again. The two of them pulled the cat's tail and deliberately oppressed Hongmen and refused to formally file a case. It was because he organized his own political party and wanted to eliminate Hongmen and absorb it, but he was unwilling to become a force again. This kind of thought is really sorry to Hongmen."

According to the situation at that time, Huang Sande's statement that Sun Yat-sen wanted to destroy the Hongmen might be a bit exaggerated, but Huang's conclusion was not a conjecture, but was based on facts. Moreover, Huang's conclusion was confirmed by another debate between Sun and Huang in the 10th year of the Republic of China.

In May 1911, when Sun Wen went to the United States for the third time, he made a decision to merge the Zhigongtang and the Tongmenghui, requiring that all members who had not participated in the Tongmenghui would join the Tongmenghui, and all members of the Tongmenghui would join the Hongmen Zhigongtang. The domestic association party organizations were also the targets of Sun Yat-sen's active contact.

After the victory of the Xinhai Revolution, Sun Yat-sen's intention to transform the society was clearer. He once publicly said in a speech: "The reason why the Hongmen established a meeting was to restore the country's hatred. It was advocated two hundred years ago to be the lead of the revolution. However, the Han people have recovered, they should change their policy of establishing the society, transform their hatred of the Tartar government into the power to help the government of the Republic of China... People are self-respecting, and they must know that the country cannot be established. If they violate the law, the government has to punish it with the law. Only by accepting it within the scope and avoiding this disaster, this is a reason for peace. People should know how to choose and trade, such as attaching a boat to the shore. Once they reach the other, they should hurry to land in order to get out of the misery. If they are still in the boat, they will be in danger of water." At the same time, Sun Yat-sen expressed his contempt to the society, saying that the society "all the people have weak knowledge and the groups are scattered. With nothing, they can only respond to it, but cannot be used as the driving force."

Influenced by Sun Wen's words and deeds, many revolutionaries believed that the Hongmen and other associations had always been aimed at restoring the rule of the Han people. Now that the purpose has been achieved, the historical mission has been completed, and there is no need to file a case in China. Therefore, after the "change of dynasties", the new life has not yet been longed for, and the associations suddenly discovered that in the world they had once conquered, they were still called "brethren" and were rejected.

For a time, suppressing the association became a national trend. Jiangxi, Guangdong, Sichuan, Zhejiang, Shanghai, Anhui and other places all prohibited the activities of the association. At the same time, newspapers across the country expressed their contempt and hostility towards the association, refuting and condemning their harm to society. At that time, whether it was the nationally renowned newspapers, such as "Shenbao", "Shenzhou Daily", "Times", "Minlibao", etc., or those tabloids with trivial matters were full of accusations of "brethren" of causing trouble, or

The military governments suppressed the leaders of the association and the law and other great news that people were encouraged by the law. To be honest, there were indeed some black sheep among these associations, but the scope of such a wide range, such a great momentum, and such a strong force, is by no means the black sheep. The more important reason was that the old forces transformed, fought for power and profit, and picked the fruits of victory. Looking at the so-called supervisors in various provinces after the Republic of China, they were basically from old bureaucrats in the Qing government.
