赵凤昌从晚清幕僚到民国元勋的蜕变之路

The Transformation of Zhao Fengchang from an Aide in the Late Qing Dynasty to a Founder of the Republic of China

赵凤昌从走上游幕之路起,便奉行务实机敏的为人处世原则。尤其进入两广总督张之洞幕府后,他以"勤敏缜密"取得张之洞的信任,得到多方面的历练,积累了学识和阅历,并凭借这层幕缘关系在上海立足,成为举足轻重的东南精英。辛亥革命期间,他在南北双方间穿针引线,调停周旋,为结束帝制、民国初创做了大量工作,从一个普通幕僚华丽转身为民国元勋,被称为"民国产婆"。

Since becoming a travelling advisor, Zhao Fengchang always acted pragmatically and smartly and especially after entering the Office of Zhang Zhidong, the Viceroy of Guangdong and Guangxi Provinces, he won Zhang’s trust by diligence and prudence,gaining extensive experiences and accumulating knowledge, which enabled him to keep a foothold in Shanghai and became an important elite in the Southeast. During the Revolution of 1911, Zhao mediated between the North and the South, and did a lot of work to end the feudal monarchy and establish the Republic of China, turning gorgeously from an ordinary aide to a founder of the Republic of China.
