Zhou Shixiang was very disgusted with the Tang Dynasty's use of eunuchs to engage in the inner court, the total number of soldiers and civilians in Liangguang was less than 4 million, which was not as good as the Qing court's rule under the rule of the Northern Zhili, but it was difficult to support a regime. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 The establishment of the six ministries of the Cabinet has greatly increased the burden on the military and the people of the two provinces, and this is dispensable. However, the Tang king's ancestral system made Zhou Shixiang not easy to oppose, but fortunately, the Tang king also knew that it was not easy to accommodate more than 100 eunuchs, and only re-established three or four yamen, and the expenses were limited, so Zhou Shixiang asked the Guangdong silver treasury directly under the military marshal's office to allocate 20,000 yuan of newly minted silver dollars and equivalent grain stamps to the bank for the Tang king's expenses.

After allocating the silver dollars and food stamps, Zhou Shixiang asked the Military Intelligence Department to investigate the details of the internal officials where Tang Wang's income was located one by one, and at the same time sent a warrant to Jiang Qingzhi, the new prefect of Guangzhou Yamen and the former governor of Zengcheng anyway, ordering him to send people to monitor the city gates, and to strip and inspect those who were found to be white-faced and unnecessary, and if they were eunuchs, they would be sent to Xiangshan to be resettled in the countryside so that they could support themselves. The warrant clearly required Jiang Qingzhi not to let the eunuchs enter the Tang Dynasty again.

After receiving a warrant from Yue Guogong himself, how dare Jiang Qingzhi slack off, on the same day, all gates in Guangzhou sent additional manpower, and the city was also investigated from street to street, and all the main roads in front of the Tang Wangfu were also secretly deployed.

Walking there, in addition to the newly admitted more than 100 internal officials, most of the maids of the original Pingwang Nanfu also stayed for the Tang Wang and his wife to send. Zhou Shixiang also tried his best to supply all kinds of expenses, and did not treat Tang Wang harshly. Although the Tang Dynasty received the inner prison and restored the inner court, his people still adhered to the simple style of Wencun, and did not become extravagant overnight.

The Tang Dynasty supervised the country in Guangzhou, and according to the system, there must be a pro-army, that is, a pro-army in Jinyi. This point was mentioned to Zhou Shixiang by King Tang and Guo Zhiqi, and King Tang intended to transfer the tenth town of the Taiping Army, the general Wang Xing, to the army of the Son of Heaven.

The relationship between the king of Tang and the general of the tiger Ben Wang Xing is well known, if it was not for Wang Xing to take in the Tang king in Wencun, the king of Tang would have died long ago. Although Wang Xingqi was born as a bandit, he was also extremely loyal to the Ming family after being recruited, and Shang Kexi was repeatedly persuaded to surrender to him but was rejected, and Wang Xing was repelled by Wang Xing twice to attack Wencun. After Zhou Shixiang issued the order of the king of Qin, Wang Xing had no intention of going to Zhaoqing to attend the meeting, and it was the Tang king who came forward to persuade him, so he led the troops to the meeting, and is now the tenth town general of the Taiping Army, the town is stationed in Nanning, Guangxi, under the command of Shao Jiugong, the governor of Guangxi, and is responsible for the armed clearance of Tusi in the southeast of Guangxi.

King Tang wanted to transfer Wang Xing's army to the pro-army, naturally because of his trust in Wang Xing, but from another point of view, it was undoubtedly a distrust of Zhou Shixiang, so that Guo Zhiqi also thought that Tang Wang's request was very inappropriate. Zhou Shixiang also felt that this matter was a little incredible, how did King Tang, who originally only wanted to compete for the official position, suddenly open his mind and thought of wanting military power. He asked Gui Yongzhi to go to the eunuch Pan Yinglong to inquire, and learned that the idea of the Tang King to transfer Wang Xingbu as a pro-army was from Lianchengbi and Zhang Xiaoqi, who had just arrived in Guangzhou.

"These two governors, I really can't wait for Ben Shuai to disarm and abandon the seal now, I think Ben Shuai has really offended them over the years, so I thought about giving Ben Shuai eye medicine as soon as I arrived in Guangzhou."

Zhou Shixiang was not interested in giving the newly arrived Lianchengbi and Zhang Xiaoqi a dismissal, and he was looking for trouble for them, which was too petty. He asked Song Xianggong to go and tell Guo Zhiqi that Wang Xingbu now had important military affairs in Guangxi and could not be transferred lightly, and Zhou Shixiang planned to transfer the C Brigade of the Third Town of the Taiping Army to the Tang Wang's army. The third town is Jiang He's troops, and the C Brigade Brigade School is the Manchurian Anghaba who sawed and killed Tayinmu with Suna, whose old surname is Guarjia, and his current name is Zhou Baoguo.

Zhou Baoguo and Suna, who changed his 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. During the period when the C Brigade was stationed in Guangzhou, it coincided with the promotion of the establishment of townships and villages by the Political Envoy Division, and the Ministry actively cooperated with the political envoys in Conghua and Qingyuan, and dealt a lot of ruthless action against the local gentry and landlords, so that many people went to Guangzhou to sue Zhou Baoguo.

Before the Tang King heard back, the order of the military marshal's office was sent out quickly, and Huo Huo, who was sharpening his knife and preparing to go north to attack Jiangxi to seize Nanjing for the marshal, turned into what kind of bullshit Tang Wang's pro-army commander, and he really wronged this Manchurian man.

Regarding the pro-army matter, King Tang did not say anything, and acquiesced in the matter. Lian Chengbi and Zhang Xiaozi failed to transfer Wang Xing back, but instead made Zhou Shixiang's people become the pro-army of the Son of Heaven, and they were naturally unwilling, but Tang Wang didn't say anything, the two of them had just arrived, and they had no foundation in Guangzhou, and they couldn't make trouble if they wanted to.

The small turmoil of the pro-army soon passed, and the cabinet agreed that the fifth day of the first month of June was the auspicious day of the zodiac, and at that time, a mound would be set up outside the east city to worship heaven and earth, and then go to the ancestral hall to worship the ancestors, and then go to the Wuying Hall to accept the worship of the ministers and issue the edict of the superintendent.

There is no Fengxian Hall and Wuying Hall here in Guangzhou, but the ritual system and supervision of the national ceremony must be so, so the cabinet reported to the Tang King and Zhou Shixiang after deliberation, and ordered the Guangdong political envoy Si to build the Taimiao, Sheji and Tang Wangzong Temple. The temple system takes its meaning, not its shape, and everything is simple. As for the halls of Fengxian and Wuying, they were held directly at the Governor's Yamen, where the six ministries of the Cabinet were located. This governor's yamen was originally the Shaowu Palace, and now it is used as the place where the Tang Dynasty supervises the country, which is also very suitable.

Liu Tichun, He Zhen, and Wang Guangxing have not yet returned to Huguang, first, they have to wait for Tang Wang to return after the completion of the national ceremony, and second, their negotiations with Zhou Shixiang have not yet come out.

The Loyalty Battalion and the Thirteen Families of Shaking Huang sent people to participate in the Tang Wang's national ceremony, which not only showed their attitude towards the Tang Dynasty, but also their support for Zhou Shixiang, so Zhou Shixiang must reciprocate.

Liu Tichun, on behalf of the Loyal Battalion and the Thirteen Shake Huang Families, proposed that after the Tang Dynasty was in charge of the country, Huguang should be governed by the Loyal Battalion and the Shake Huang Thirteen Families, and the people of the Loyal Camp should be appointed by the imperial court as the governor of Huguang.

In the territory of Huguang, the four prefectures of Yuanzhou, Jingzhou and Baoqing are currently occupied and controlled by the Taiping army, and the rest of the prefectures and counties are controlled by the Loyal Battalion and the Thirteen Families of Shaohuang, except for the five prefectures of Wuchang, Changde, Changsha, Huangzhou and De'an.

Liu Tichun: Their meaning is obvious, they want to get the whole Huguang. Zhou Shixiang naturally couldn't agree to this condition, because if he did that, the Taiping army blocking the border between Hunan and Guizhou would have to withdraw from Huguang, and the loyal battalion and the Thirteen Shake Huang families now claim to have more than 100,000 soldiers and horses, but the old man can fight 20,000 or 30,000 soldiers in the sky, and they fight for themselves, not to mention the Shake Huang Thirteen Bandits, the loyal battalion is not monolithic, and Li Laiheng, the co-leader, cannot command other generals at all. Give Huguang to them, and I am afraid that in the blink of an eye, they will be able to stand out by the Qing army in Guizhou.

In the end, at the suggestion of Zhou Shixiang, Huguang Province was split into Hunan and Hubei provinces. Hunan Province includes Changsha, Baoqing, Yuezhou, Changde, Chenzhou, Yuanzhou, Yongzhou, Hengzhou, Yongshun nine prefectures, and also governs Qianzhou, Fenghuang, Yongsui, Huangzhou, Nanzhou five Zhili prefectures. Hubei Province is Wuchang, Hanyang, Huangzhou, Anlu, De'an, Jingzhou, Xiangyang, Yunyang eight prefectures, and the other jurisdiction of Guizhou, Baojing and other six Zhili prefectures.
