The demands that Zhang Xiaoqi and others insisted on were things that Zhou Shixiang could not agree to. Reversing the case for Shaowu was not only what he should do as his nominal son-in-law, but also related to his political status and influence in the Tang Dynasty’s regime. An important means to cut off the Wang regime and the Yongli court. [Love ↑ Go △ Xiao ↓ Say △ Net WwW.AiQu] If the Tang Dynasty's regime and the Yongli court cannot be separated, there will be serious troubles in the future. When Wencun was talking at night, Zhou Shixiang agreed to several requests from King Tang, but this did not mean that he would implement it, or that he would implement it selectively instead of accepting it all. The reason to promise is for the overall situation; to break the promise in the future is also for the overall situation. Zhou Shixiang would never hand over the country he had worked so hard for to the cowardly and incompetent Emperor Yongli who only knew how to escape and save his life, much less would he hand it over to a "Third Prince Zhu" who didn't know whether to live or die.

Once upon a time, Zhou Shixiang thought that the newly established imperial court would move forward according to his will after the Tang Dynasty supervises the country, and that all contradictions would be suppressed and covered up before the great enemy of the Qing Dynasty. Taking the overall situation as the top priority, he will take national recovery and national self-help as his own responsibility. However, all of this now seems to be his wishful thinking.

After only a few victories, just a piece of land like Guangdong and Guangxi, and there was no crisis of troops coming under the city for the time being, the officials of the Ming Dynasty showed their true nature, began to fight against differences, and began to fight for power and profits, and these became grand-sounding justice in their mouths! Taiping soldiers who tied their heads on the waistbands of their trousers and fought desperately against the Tartars were considered vulgar warriors in their eyes, and even His Royal Highness the supervisor of the country when reviewing the three armies became alienated scholar-bureaucrats, and became a **** that went against the ancestral system.

Lian Chengbi, Zhang Xiaoqi and others were originally officials of Yongli. They were afraid that the Tang king and Yongli would be cut off, which would make them second ministers, lose their reputation, and tarnish the great road in their hearts. Zhou Shixiang can understand this, so he does not agree with them They care. However, in addition to those officials who are loyal to the eternal calendar, there are actually many officials who have been promoted by him, and many are even demoted, which makes it difficult for Zhou Shixiang to understand. It is said that those who know the current affairs are the heroes. When these people surrendered to the Manchu and Qing Dynasties, they were willing to be the lackeys of foreign races, and they were the servants of the tigers, they often used this to explain their actions of betraying their country and their ancestors, but the truth was that they were afraid of death. In the face of death, the teachings of the saints, the family and the world are all illusory, and only living is the most realistic.

Today, the handle of the knife is in the hands of Zhou Shixiang. The tens of thousands of Taiping troops are the firm cornerstone of the Guangdong and Guangxi regime, and they are the foundation for these officials to settle down. Zhou Shixiang stabilized the political situation, but instead held a group and fought against Zhou Shi. This contrast is incomprehensible.

The confusion of Zhou Shixiang is the most true portrayal of this era. There are not no, there are, and many officials who resisted the alien race. However, when more officials are Ming ministers, no matter how big they are, they first consider themselves. Interests, and then think of this country; when they are Qing ministers, they only consider the country of the Qing Dynasty, not their own interests. They only know how to desperately maintain the rule of the Qing Dynasty, desperately suppress the resistance of the Han people, and dye their tops with blood. Other than that, they don't think about anything else. Even many officials who surrendered to the Qing Dynasty stood firm when the Ming army came, and died in battle, hanged, and threw themselves into the river... There are many tragic and solemn scenes staged by loyal officials of the Qing Dynasty.

In the Qing court, none of the officials who were demoted in the Ming Dynasty dared to form a party. In the past, what they liked most was to risk their own lives to give advice and take pride in getting the court staff. When they became officials of the Qing Dynasty, they liked to do it the most. The only thing is to shut up, that is, "Sage is wise!"

This is both realistic and absurd.

Zhou Shixiang couldn't think of any other reasons, he could only blame one point, that maybe the Manchus' knives were sharper.

The Qing Dynasty could make the flies shut up, be obedient as lackeys, and actively cooperate with the Manchus to sit firmly in the country. Zhou Shixiang felt that he could do the same. Zhou Shixiang really couldn't compromise anymore, because he didn't have time.

He was hesitating, whether to suppress it directly by force, to wipe out the Qing Dynasty with blood, or to arrest the person first and hand it over to His Royal Highness Tang Wang.

Among the troublemakers were many old landlords and gentry. These were all the "victims" of Zhou Shixiang's campaign to "build villages and build townships" and the movement of imperial power to the countryside. Many of them, if strictly distinguished, were traitors, because they were occupied by the Qing army. During this period, they actively cooperated with the Qing army, and labor and food provision were secondary, and many people had also tipped off the Qing army. In order to quickly stabilize the local area, except for a few counties in Xiangshan, where the Taiping Army carried out a large-scale suppression of the rebels, the measures adopted in other places were relatively mild. After all, Guangdong has suffered from military disasters for more than ten years, and the remaining population is less than 3 million. There are only one hundred thousand in the small mouth. If there is another severe crackdown on these landlord gentry and clan forces, the population is bound to decline.

Undoubtedly, the soft-heartedness at that time made these old landlords and gentry become part of today's farce, and those juren masters and scholars who were unwilling to enter new schools were also grieved by the "slow treatment" of the Taiping Army. These days, those who can study are from better-off families, and seven or eight out of ten of these families are from landlords and gentry. Only if there are scholars in the family, there are scholars, there are scholars, and there are scholars in the family, then you can be called a gentry. Therefore, everyone wanted to be a member of the gentry, because in the Ming Dynasty, the gentry had great power and was the basis of their rule. The officials in the court were the endorsement of the gentry, and the gentry was the most staunch backing of the officials, and the two colluded with each other. against the imperial power.

The imperial power goes to the countryside, the new political structure of the county and village is undoubtedly to dig up the graves of these gentry and officials, and to break their foundation, so the gentry and students who have nowhere to ask will not hesitate to respond to Zhang Xiaoqi and others' actions to seek justice , because if this event is successful, it is likely to mobilize the new regime structure implemented by the Taiping Army in Guangdong. As long as a brick falls off, this system will be completely overthrown in a short time, even if it is still in name, but then The ruling power of the village is still in the hands of these old landlords and gentry, and then everything will be the same as before.

For the sake of righteousness and power, for the sake of righteousness, for the sake of power, for the sake of the gentry, for the sake of regaining the property that was deprived of them, for the sake of regaining the rule of the countryside, for the sake of becoming an official, for the sake of honoring the ancestors, and for the sake of returning to their hometown to become a gentry, they were closely united and staged a vigorous battle. The event of King Tang's "Great Ceremony".

The appearance of Zhou Shixiang did not make things static, but intensified. The Guangzhou government has successively arrested some people, all of whom are idlers who take the opportunity to smash, smash, and loot.

The palace was quiet, and King Tang didn't seem to know what was going on outside, and no words were spoken.

The first assistant Guo Zhiqi closed his eyes at home, paid no attention to the outside world, and did not bring a word to Zhou Shixiang. Perhaps, Lord Shoufu knew what Yue Guogong would do in the end, but he couldn't stop it at all.

Lianchengbi also huddled at home after the big trouble~www.NovelMTL.com~ but he was not idle. The eyeliner arranged by the Ministry of Intelligence in his house reported that Lord Cifu sent his family members to the palace in succession in his study. A small note.

Some of the officials who did not participate in the disturbance were sitting in the yamen waiting for the final result, while others gathered together to discuss quietly.

The third town outside the city is already wearing armor, waiting for the commander's order to enter the city to kill these disobedient turtle sons.

The family members of the Taiping Army in the city also began to organize spontaneously, under the leadership of the former battalion elders and battalion managers, to confront the troublesome crowd.

The students of the Youth Soldiers Camp and the Armed Forces Academy were ordered not to go out. The youth soldiers and the students were lying on the wall, puzzled by what was happening outside.

Wang Shirong spoke again, and he said, "Don't be soft-hearted, commander. In this world, two-legged toads are hard to find, but two-legged officials are easy to find." After a while, he added: "It's a troubled world right now, and it's time for trouble. Use heavy code."

Zhou Shixiang accepted Wang Shirong's suggestion, he ordered to clear the field, and the one who performed the task was the Jinyi pro-military commanded by Zhou Baoguo. (To be continued.) Mobile users, please browse and read for a better reading experience.
