However, when Juerdian learned that China had different opinions on this, in order to weaken the strength of the New China, he changed his attitude and hurriedly told Zhao that Britain "also agreed with the imperial system."
On October 2, Zhao met with Zhu Erdian, and the two of them had a close conversation in Jurentang. Zhu Erdian asked: "The day the constitutional monarchy should not be far away!"
Zhao Gang replied: "In the past two years, the governors, governors and civil and military officials have been reported in person, and they have been telegraphed, saying that it is not a constitutional monarchy that cannot consolidate the national foundation and maintain the overall situation. In recent months, militia groups in various provinces have also frequently called, advocating the matter, and even young officers and revolutionary great men advocated strong resolution. The so-called mature politicians also thought that forcibly republic was not a permanent solution because of the chaos in the Mexican country.
So as for today's national support for constitutional monarchy, the Lord has made rapid progress. He has tried his best to deal with all parties so that they do not have to do much, but everyone has any firm ideas. If they use force to control it, or if there are different situations, they have to rely on public opinion and have a legitimate solution."
Then he said: "But in today's world, the monarchy is by no means a long-term solution." Zhu Erdian immediately said: "In the Japanese, the Chinese people were obsessed with republics and overthrew the Qing Dynasty with this slogan. At that time, the President thought that constitutional monarchy was close to the ideal of the Chinese people, and Erdian also advocated constitutional monarchy. During the discussion between the north and the south, Tang Shaoyi was moved by a moment and did not observe the country's plan for ten thousand years. It was not a mistake to preside over the republic."
Due to Zhao Gang's ambiguous attitude, the imperial party felt that the situation was not good, so he brazenly ignored the people's resistance and opposition and decided to implement the monarchy as soon as possible. They believed that the more time delayed, the more chaos the world became. This chaos was not caused by the imperial movement, but because there was no emperor, as long as there was an emperor, people's hearts could be stabilized and a stable situation would emerge.
Therefore, under the command of Liang Shi, Yang Du and others, the "National Petition Federation" submitted its third petition to the Senate Yuan. The case was overturned. They said: "Since the national system problem occurred, there has been a trend of turning cliffs and turning stones to the ground, and the four peoples and hundreds of industries have been waiting for a long time."
They used the reason why the original method of convening the National Assembly was "too complicated" and "and the general trend was difficult to maintain for a long time" to require the Senate to "set up another agency to solicit public opinion" and "to determine the national system and consolidate the national foundation."
At the same time, the "National Chamber of Commerce Federation" and "Education Federation" and other groups were also submitted. The Senate Council held a meeting on October 6 in the name of "respecting public opinion" and decided not to convene a national meeting again, but "based on the primary election of the National Assembly, electing national representatives, forming a national congress, and deciding on the national system." Zhao Gang received a speech from the Senate Council and promulgated the National Congress election law on October 8. He also declared on 10: "This President is entrusted by the people and takes saving the country and the people as his responsibility. He likes and dislikes and uses the people to be careful. Only by following the law and taking the people as the main body, he must obtain the correct public opinion of the majority of the country. He shall determine the violation."
The so-called "preserving the local area" is to ruthlessly suppress activities against the imperial system. Regarding this point, the secret telegram from the Ministry of Internal Affairs to various provinces on October 3: "Eliminate the rebellion and strictly prevent incitement." Civil and military officials from all over the country understood it and called back to express their loyalty: Governor Fengtian guaranteed public security and "can bear full responsibility". Shanghai garrison envoy Zheng Rucheng said: "Rucheng's strength is enough to maintain it", hoping to "follow public opinion and make a big plan quickly." King Zhanyuan of Hubei guaranteed "to be in charge of local security" Si Chong guaranteed: "Anyone who maintains order, prevents problems before they arise, and protects the lives and property of outsiders should bear full responsibility. He also recruits another cavalry and artillery 15th battalion to send Ni Yufen to command the Northern Governor to Bengbu to prepare for emergency response and provide assistance." Tang Ming, Hunan said: "If there is a plan to prevent the national saving, I will be the leader of the king and besides this public enemy." Chen Huan, Sichuan, said: "Our soldiers have the duty to set up security security, but they know their loyalty to the head of state, and do not know anything else. ... They walk with their robes, and pray in a fragrant manner. I wish that the original master will be the master to protect our descendants of the people from falling into foreign lands."
Beijing set an example for various provinces to "preserve the locality". When the Security Council appeared, Beijing newspapers such as the National Gazette, the New China Daily, the Xinghua Daily, and the Tianmin Daily all had opposition. Wu Bingxiang, the director of the Beijing Police Department, instructed the minions to deal with each other, use both soft and hard, or use money to buy them or use violent seizures, destroying all public opinion against the imperial system.
According to Shanghai's "Shen Bao" report, "In Beijing newspapers, most of the petition representatives and other monotonous texts are recorded in the same text. There are only one or two people who oppose the remarks, but they are also attacked by the other party at times." In the end, except for the newspapers run by foreigners, they are silent and no longer object.
The voting location is stipulated in the office of the governor or the governor. The governor and the governor are legal voting supervisors. The venue is covered with military and police, which is called protection, but is actually a threat. The voter only has the four words "constitutional monarchy" printed on the face of the vote, and the voter writes the words "for" or "oppose" and then signs his own name.
Before the voting, each representative issued some funds as "Sichuan capital or public expenses"; the governor or governor would also give a speech to slander the republic and praise the king and constitution. In this case, naturally no one dared to write the word "oppose". After the voting, Zhao Gang was immediately recommended as the emperor. By December, all votes in Beijing and various provinces were completed, and they reported to the Senate Yuan one after another, and the Senate Yuan was presumed to be the general representative of the National Congress.
Amid the persuasion of civil and military officials and "business people", the Senate, who claimed to be the general representative of the National Congress, held a meeting at 9 a.m. on December 11 to hold the so-called general bill of the national sports system. Secretary-General Lin Changmin reported the number of people and votes of the National Congress. A total of 1,993 national representatives from each province, and there were exactly 1,993 votes for the constitutional monarchy. There was no vote against it, and there was no aborted vote.
The books of recommendation from all provinces unanimously stated: "Today's President Zhao Gang is the emperor of the Great Empire of China, and he worships it to the emperor with the highest and complete sovereignty of the country, inheriting the heaven and establishing the extreme, and spreading it to all generations." On the spot, Yang Du and Sun Yuyun suggested: "In front of this court, each province is entrusted as the general representative, and especially the general representative." The Secretary-General immediately took out the books of recommendation and reading aloud in public. After praising merits, he asked Zhao Gang to "follow public opinion, ascend to the great treasures, and command the herds to be the most noble, and practice the six-member." All participating in politics stood up and passed unanimously. At 11:30, the meeting was dispersed amid cheers.
A few days later, Zhao Gang finally responded and was forced to serve as the emperor of the Great Chinese Empire, but to everyone's surprise, Zhao Gang made an amazing choice in the power of the emperor.
