Han’s Son is Not a Slave

Zhou Shixiang was very disgusted with the use of eunuchs by the king of Tang to engage in the inner court. The total number of soldiers and civilians in Guangdong and Guangxi was less than 4 million, which was not as good as the Qing court's rule of northern Zhili, but it was not difficult to support a regime. The establishment of the six ministries of the cabinet, large and small, nine ministers and yamen, has greatly increased the burden on the military and civilians of Guangdong and Guangxi, and this is a dispensable inner court. However, the king of Tang said that the ancestral system was so difficult to object to Zhou Shixiang. Fortunately, the king of Tang also knew that Guangdong and Guangxi were not easy. He only accommodated more than 100 eunuchs and rebuilt three or four yamen. The silver treasury allocated 20,000 yuan of newly minted silver dollars and the equivalent food stamps to the bank for the expenses of the Tang king.

After allocating the silver dollars and food stamps, Zhou Shixiang asked the Ministry of Military Intelligence to investigate the details of Tang Wang's internal officials one by one, and at the same time issued orders to the newly appointed prefect of Guangzhou Yamen and Jiang Qingzhi, the former magistrate of Zengcheng anyway, ordering him to send people to monitor the city gates. , Anyone who finds that the face is white and has no need to take off his clothes and check, if the **** is sent to Xiangshan and sent to the countryside for resettlement, so that he can support himself. The warrant clearly required Jiang Qingzhi not to allow eunuchs to enter the Tang King's line again.

When Jiang Qingzhi received the warrant personally sent by the Duke of Yue, how could Jiang Qingzhi dare to neglect him? On the same day, various gates in Guangzhou dispatched additional staff, and the city was also inspected along the streets and alleys. The eunuchs who were present were immediately arrested and deported.

While there, in addition to the newly recruited more than 100 internal officials, most of the maids from the Nanfu of King Ping also stayed for the dispatch of the King of Tang and his wife. Zhou Shixiang also tried his best to provide various expenses, and did not treat King Tang harshly. Although King Tang accepted the inner prison and restored the inner court, his people still adhere to the simple style of Wen Village, and they did not become extravagant people overnight. The daily food is no different from Wen Village. , except for the newly added court clothes and two dresses each, and nothing else.

Tang Wang supervises the country in Guangzhou, according to the system, there must be a pro-army, that is, Jinyi pro-military. Both Tang Wang and Guo Zhiqi mentioned this to Zhou Shixiang, and Tang Wang intended to downgrade Wang Xing, the tenth town general of the Taiping Army, to be the emperor's own army.

The relationship between Tang Wang and Hu Ben general Wang Xing is well known. If Wang Xing hadn't taken in Tang Wang Yuwen Village, Tang Wang would have died long ago. Although Wang Xing was a bandit, he was extremely loyal to the Ming family after being recruited. Shang Kexi repeatedly persuaded him to surrender, but he was rejected. After Zhou Shixiang issued the decree of the diligent king, Wang Xing had no intention of going to Zhaoqing to attend the meeting. It was also the king of Tang who persuaded him to lead his troops to the meeting. Now he is the tenth town general of the Taiping Army. The town headquarters is stationed in Nanning, Guangxi. Responsible for the armed clearing of the chieftains in the south of Guangxi.

Tang Wang wanted to transfer Wang Xing's department as his pro-military, naturally because of his trust in Wang Xing, but from another perspective, it was undoubtedly his distrust of Zhou Shixiang, so Guo Zhiqi also thought that Tang Wang's request was very inappropriate. Zhou Shixiang also felt that this was a bit unbelievable. How did King Tang, who only wanted to compete for the official position, suddenly realize that he wanted military power. He asked Gui Yongzhi to inquire about the **** Pan Yinglong, who knew that King Tang's idea to transfer Wang Xing's ministry to his army was from Lianchengbi and Zhang Xiaoqi, who had just arrived in Guangzhou.

"These two superintendents, I really wish that this commander would get rid of his armor and give up his seal now. If he came here, he has really offended them all these years, so when he arrived in Guangzhou, he thought of giving this commander some eye drops."

Zhou Shixiang was not interested in giving Lian Chengbi and Zhang Xiao a disgrace to the newly arrived, and he was trying to trouble them again, which was too petty. He asked Duke Xiang of Song to go and tell Guo Zhiqi that Wang Xing's department now has important military affairs in Guangxi and should not be taken lightly. The third town is Jiang He's troops, and the Brigade Brigade School is Anghaba, a Manchurian who saw and killed Tayinmu together with Suna.

Zhou Baoguo and Suna, who changed their Chinese name to Wang Tai, were no less loyal to Zhou Shixiang than Ge Yi, Jiang He, and Shao Chengguo who were born in Daqiao Mountain. When Brigade C was stationed in Guangzhou, it was the time when the chief envoy was promoting the construction of townships and villages. The department actively cooperated with the chief envoy in Conghua and Qingyuan, and made a lot of ruthless attacks on the local gentry and landlords. People came to Guangzhou to sue Zhou Baoguo, and the result was naturally "official protection", and it was short of a drama of "who is going to sue this official".

Before there was any reply from King Tang, the command from the military commander's mansion was sent out quickly, and Zhou Baoguo, who was sharpening his knife and preparing to attack Jiangxi and seized Nanjing for the commander, turned into some **** commander of King Tang's army. The state man is wronged.

Regarding pro-military matters, King Tang didn't say anything and acquiesced to this matter. Lianchengbi and Zhang Xiaoqi failed to transfer Wang Xing back, but instead made Zhou Shixiang's people become the emperor's army, and he was naturally unwilling, but Tang Wang didn't say anything. Can't make trouble.

The small storm of pro-military passed quickly, and the cabinet agreed that the fifth day of the sixth lunar month would be the auspicious day of the zodiac. At that time, a mound would be set up outside the east city to worship the heaven and earth, and then go to the Fengxian Hall to worship the ancestors, and then go to the Wuying Hall to accept the worship of the ministers and issue a prison sentence. State decree.

There is no Fengxian Hall and Wuying Hall in Guangzhou, but the ritual system supervisor must be like this. Therefore, after deliberation, the cabinet reported to the Tang King and Zhou Shixiang, and ordered the Guangdong governor to build the Taimiao Temple, Sheji and Tang Wangzong Temple. The temple system takes its meaning, not its shape, and keeps everything simple. As for the halls of Fengxian and Wuying, they will be held directly in the Governor's Yamen where the six cabinet departments are located. This Governor's Yamen was originally the Shaowu Palace~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and now it is used as the place where the ceremony of the Tang King's supervision of the country was held, which is also very suitable.

Liu Tichun, He Zhen, and Wang Guangxing have not returned to Huguang. First, they have to wait for Tang Wang to supervise the state ceremony and go back. Second, their negotiations with Zhou Shixiang have not yet come out.

Zhongzhenying and Yaohuang thirteen families sent members to participate in the State Ceremony of King Tang's Supervisor, which not only showed their support for King Tang, but also their support for Zhou Shixiang, so in return, Zhou Shixiang must reciprocate.

Liu Tichun, on behalf of the Zhongzheng Ying and the Thirteen Yaohuang Clan, proposed that, after the Tang Dynasty supervises the country, Huguang should be jointly governed by the Zhongzhen Ying and the Thirteen Yaohuang Clan, and the person appointed by the court should be the governor of Huguang.

In the territory of Huguang, Yuanzhou, Jingzhou and Baoqing are currently occupied and controlled by the Taiping Army. Except for Wuchang, Changde, Changsha, Huangzhou and De'an, the rest of the prefectures and counties are all under the control of Zhongzhenying and Yaohuang Thirteen. control.

Liu Tichun and their intentions are obvious, they want to get the whole of Huguang. Naturally, Zhou Shixiang could not agree to this condition, because if he did that, the Taiping army blocking the border between Hunan and Guizhou would be withdrawn from Huguang, and Zhongzhenying and Yaohuang Thirteen Clan now claimed to have hundreds of thousands of troops, but they were able to fight. There are 20,000 to 30,000 soldiers in the sky, and they are fighting each other. Not to mention the thirteen local bandits of the Yellow Emperor, the interior of the loyalty camp is not monolithic, and Li Laiheng, the co-lord, cannot command other generals at all. Giving Huguang to them, I am afraid that they will be highlighted by the Qing army in Guizhou in a blink of an eye.

In the end, at the suggestion of Zhou Shixiang, the province of Huguang was split into two provinces, Hunan and Hubei. Hunan Province includes the nine prefectures of Changsha, Baoqing, Yuezhou, Changde, Chenzhou, Yuanzhou, Yongzhou, Hengzhou and Yongshun, as well as five Zhili prefectures, namely Qianzhou, Fenghuang, Yongsui, Huangzhou and Nanzhou. Hubei Province is Wuchang, Hanyang, Huangzhou, Anlu, De'an, Jingzhou, Xiangyang, Yunyang eight prefectures, and another six Zhili prefectures including Guizhou and Baojing. (To be continued.)
