Nikki was also angry at the news that appeared in the newspaper. Japan and Japan immediately to the Japanese Heilongjiang Association in Beijing, the boss of the special organization, Shan Qi, to question them. It was only with each passing day that Japan learned the truth about the secret visit of Jingfu to China. The Japanese immediately boarded the ship to return to Japan, reported to the Emperor of Japan, and impeached the Quiet Man.

In front of the emperor, Yi said that Yuan Shikai had bribed him for a lot of benefits. The Emperor immediately criticized the quiet man on the surface and revoked the terms he had fought over for Yuan Shikai. In the presence of the emperor and ministers, Japan insisted on the original terms to force Mr Yuan to sign a contract with Japan. He also requested that he personally take the original terms back to Beijing to force Yuan Shikai to sign the contract.

Day by day, he was an arrogant and ambitious person. He said to the emperor: "The Chinese have always been weak. Now, the Western Empires are powerless to fight against us, Japan. This is the perfect time for us to force Mr Yuan to sign a contract and for Japan to monopolise China in its entirety. Those provisions that we have decided upon at our meeting must not be reduced in any way. He must get Yuan Shikai to agree and sign it. A person who does not engage in public service should be severely punished and should not be allowed to do anything else. I have been in China for many years, and I know very well Yuan Shikai's character. I can use the original terms to force Yuan Shikai to agree and sign. I plead for the Emperor's permission. "

The Emperor, after a moment of silence, agreed to his performance and gave him the original terms. He took it back to China to force Yuan Shikai. There were many ministers who did not believe in profit and gain. At that time, they had turned to the Emperor to plead for him. The Emperor did not punish the silent man. It turned out that Kei Kai-shek was a powerful figure in the government and had a huge network of connections. Most of the ministers said, "Your Majesty, it is not appropriate to punish Sakyamuni too soon. What he came back to say and what he analyzed about the current situation in China, we think is true. As for his taking of bribes, there was no evidence to prove it. He could not make up his mind. He had to find out slowly. "If we fail to force him to step in, then he will have to step in." Hearing his words, the Emperor felt that it is reasonable. After a moment of indecision, he gave his approval to all of the ministers. " The quiet man on the other side was secretly happy, but deep inside, he hated that he was getting better every day. On one side, Yi Yi was deeply resentful of the ministers, but on the other hand, he secretly made up his mind to get the evidence and take part in the investigation.

After the meeting was over, Jingfu took the initiative and wrote to Yuan Shikai, telling him to take advantage of the situation. This was the equivalent of returning a shot from behind.

As for Eunuch Liu, after he finished reading the letter, he was stunned and knew that the information leaked was true. Both he and Yuan Shikai immediately felt uneasy, worried that their husband would come back. Yuan Shikai said, "Mr. Jing did not mention in his letter who was coming to force me. Who is this person that wants to take part in his book and force me? He must have some powerful methods. "

Eunuch Liu said, "I expect that this person will be the Japanese envoy. Because it was so easy to guess that it was him, Mr. Well did not write his name. " Yuan Shikai said resentfully, "That guy is always so arrogant, he's never polite talking to anyone. The fight at the Heavenly Altar was actually caused by him speaking too arrogantly. This person is sinister and repulsive. " The two of them guessed that things would get better with each passing day, but they didn't mention that they would think of a way to deal with him.

On the afternoon of the same day, Liu Gonggong said to Yuan Shikai with a complacent look on his face: "Master, as I expected. Day by day, he came. I've already let you into the living room. " "No matter what he says or what he forces me to do, I cannot allow him to do as he says. What can this arrogant fellow do to me? " As he spoke, his heart was already flustered. Eunuch Liu said, "Yes, we must resist him. That depends on how you answer him. "

Yuan Shikai steadied himself again, considered his options, and went into the living room. He was wearing a suit, a pair of gold-rimmed crystal glasses and a golden frame. As he sat there, he expressed his arrogance and his self-confidence. Beside him stood a handsome young lady in a flowery kimono. The young lady lowered her head slightly, a small and exquisite box in her hand. Yuan Shikai cleared his throat as he walked in, "I've kept you waiting, Mr. Minister." With a cold expression, he left his seat and said, "I've just arrived." Yuan Shikai sat at the seat of honor beside him and said, "I do not know what business you have here as an envoy." "I recently heard that the President was suffering from a minor illness and came to visit," he said. Yuan Shikai's face was also cold as he said, "Thank you for your concern, sir.

"These are some of the best ginseng in Japan," he said. "They can be called the best supplement to nourish the President's body. This is disrespectful! " Yuan Shikai did not say anything as he looked inside the box. It was five ginseng wrapped in cellophane paper, lying inside in a row. Thus, he said, "I let Mr. Envoy spend his money. I will not be disrespectful and accept it. " He picked up the box and called the maid: "Put this away." The maid caught it and retreated out of the room.

He opened his briefcase and took out a letter, "I have one more thing to do. This is the special envoy of the Japanese government, Mr. Shimamoto. He entrusted it to you. " Upon hearing this, Yuan Shikai thought, "Don't lie to me. You really know how to lie! " He took the letter and placed it on the table. And he asked, "What about Mr. Jingfu? Why didn't he come? " He didn't expect him to ask the first question and felt it was sudden. Embarrassed for a moment, he muttered to himself, "As for you, Sir Envoy, you are unable to come personally because of all the things that have occurred in the government." Yuan Shikai knew the reason, but he kept silent and waited for further instructions.

After a long while, Yi Xin saw that Yuan Shikai was not reading the letter, so he did not ask anymore, and said: "Mr. Yuan: You read the letter first. I think we should know everything. " Yuan Shikai looked at him and was about to read the letter. At this moment, the head of the government, the governor of Nanjing, Feng Guozhang, suddenly barged in from the outside. As if he didn't see it, he went to Yuan Shikai's side and said, "President, the British Minister has asked me to accompany him. He said that he has an important meeting with you and is already waiting outside." Yuan Shikai hesitated for a moment before saying, "Let him come back this afternoon." I have a guest here, I can't take it. " Finished speaking, he raised his head to look at Feng Guozhang beside him. Seeing that Feng Guozhang was not moving, he changed his words: "You go first. Let him wait in the study. Say I'll see you right away. " Only then did Feng Guozhang leave in satisfaction.

Yuan Shikai picked up the letter and unhurriedly opened it to read it. The letter read: "His Excellency, President of the Great Japanese Empire, The Emperor of China: Reply Received. He admired the determination of the president to restore the imperial system. May the President ascend one step at an early date. We are willing to help achieve great things. You may also agree to your requests for loans, arms, etc. Due to the complex situation in your country, all the countries in Britain, France, Russia and the United States are close to your country. They have all the benefits of trading and trading with your country. And my Japanese empire's interests in China are nothing compared to it. As a result, the matter of assistance and a number of issues had yet to be resolved by agreement. We believe that Japan's trading and trading interests and other interests in China should be at the top of the empires. With this as the premise, he could agree to the contract for assistance. We strongly oppose your offer of first assistance and then signing the contract. We advocate first signing and then assisting. Your Excellency is reminded to reconsider the terms that have been rejected by you. We must not make any concessions. If Your Excellency objects any further, we shall regard it as a lack of good faith. We can consider fostering other Chinese friends, parties or groups. What Big Japan proposed must be realized! What he had to do had to be done! What he had to do had to be done!

I hope that you will open up your heart, weigh personal gains and losses, make wise choices, and quickly repent. The Great Emperor of Japan is here! "

Yuan Shikai looked at the letter, his hands were trembling in fear as he threw it on the ground. While he was picking up the letter on the ground, he thought to himself, "This Japanese devil is really amazing. With such a tough tone, he openly threatened me in the letter to nurture others." How can I accept such harsh conditions? "

He put the letter in his reply bag and thought over and over again, "The little devil always does things by hook or by crook. There's no need to talk about nurturing others to topple me. Even if they were slightly inclined towards others, my power and prestige would quickly decline. The members of the Sectarian Party were unpopular, so it was not a big deal to fear them. This piece of Chi Rui can be closely related to this daily gain. If I were to support him and fall, not only would I fail to become an emperor, but I would also lose my position as president. " Unknowingly, he began to sweat profusely.

After he had read the letter, Joy was so frightened that he looked pleased and pleased with himself; he wrinkled his nose and soon his face became even more sullen. He looked at Yuan Shikai's reaction.

Yuan Shikai felt his body heating up as he took out a handkerchief and slowly wiped his face. Then he remembered Jing Jianfu's words in his letter: "If Teacher is not willing to accept the original terms, then there is a chance for me to obtain article 21 of the five paragraphs that I have been fighting so hard for you."

Yuan Shikai gathered his courage and said, "My body is weak, and I'm sweating profusely while sitting here. I don't have time for this sort of thing. First, it was settled. First, it was supported, then it was signed. The opposite is true in your country. Those conditions are too harsh, and hard to accept! " He picked up the letter from the table and gave it back to Nikki. He stood up and angrily said: "I still have things to do. See the guests out! "

Nikki was stunned by his sudden action. She stood up and threatened, "I can only tell you the truth. The one who will suffer the loss will be you!" With that, he left resentfully. When he got into the car, he turned around and said to Yuan Shikai, "You should reconsider. I'll come back tomorrow." Only then did he get into the car with the young lady and leave.

Yuan Shikai came back to the study to see the British minister. When he entered, he saw that the British, French, Russian and American ministers were all seated. The anxious Feng Guozhang paced back and forth on the ground. Yuan Shikai forced himself to say, "I've made the ambassadors wait for a long time." Then, he sat on the main seat in the middle. He suddenly felt as if there was a huge pressure above his head, causing him and the chair to drill straight into the ground.

The various ambassadors said, "We heard that the president is feeling ill and came to visit together."

Yuan Shikai said, "I've been feeling unwell for the past few days." After a round of questioning from the ministers.

The British envoy began by saying, "The newspapers in the various leases all have the news that you have decided to use Japan's loans and arms to sign a treaty with Japan. Is this true? Mr. President, please explain it clearly. "

Seeing that Yuan Shikai did not answer him, he added with an indifferent expression, "Mr. Yuan, you don't have to mind. We Western Empires do not want to interfere in this, nor do we want to know the details of your contract. However, while you can sign the contract, you must not harm the interests of our western empires in China. After you sign the contract, Japan's interests in China must never surpass ours. "
