Of course, Zhou Shixiang was no longer the scholar who was powerless and wanted to wait for peace in the world to take the imperial examination in the Qing Dynasty. He was not the scholar who was like his mother every day. He only hoped that the family would be safe, no matter whether he was a good person from the Ming or Qing dynasties.

In Xinhui, he cut off Youyunlong's neck with a knife; in Luoding, he set fire all over the city and wrapped all the people; in Xiangshan, he ordered the saw to kill Manzhou Shenling Tayinbu; in Guangzhou, a sentence "It's this wheel" made all the old and young Manzhou go to the underworld; in Chaozhou, because of his indulgence, how many forts were slaughtered; in Hunan, because of his orders, tens of thousands of Han people died in Taoism, and for food, how many Hunan Han people cried to the sky.

The scholar is no longer the scholar back then. Behind his young face is a cold and iron-blooded heart. His hands are not only covered with blood from his enemies, but also the blood of his compatriots.

After the King of Tang promised to supervise the country, everyone thought that Zhou Shixiang became weak and allowed the King of Tang and the civil servants to bully him. However, in the eyes of scholars, these people were not worthy of being his enemies at all. And the King of Tang was not his enemies. Not now, nor in the future.

What the Tang King did looked more like a child's trick to maintain his dignity, to prevent himself from being regarded as a puppet by others, or a temptation of scholars.

Zhou Shixiang didn't care how many officials the Tang King wanted to be granted or how many people he wanted, because the more he did this, the more he meant he didn't know what was worth fighting for.

Zhou Shixiang's concession was just not wanting to conflict with the King of Tang on these things that seemed irrelevant to him, which led to the monarch and ministers' disagreement, and made the outside world mistakenly think that he was really Sun Kewang again. However, the unrelenting concession and tolerance would make the King of Tang have unrealistic fantasies, so Zhou Shi compiled the list of these six left ministers.

After the list of six ministers was in the hands of the King of Tang, the King of Tang was silent. For a long time, he stayed honestly in the Pingnan Palace, which had been in office, and did not criticize the appointment and removal of officials. Zhou Shixiang did not make any requests for the appointment and removal of officials, and devoted himself to the Northern Expedition. The matters such as the establishment and handling of the Tang King's Charity in the Guangzhou court were handled by the cabinet.

As the spokesperson for Zhou Shixiang's cabinet, Duke Xiang of Song and Yuan Kuoyu must compete with Guo Zhiqi when it comes to interests. The former is better, he is somewhat cautious and knows the right measure, while the latter is always in the cabinet, saying "My boss said it, my boss mentioned it." Guo Zhiqi was so angry that he was not a bad face or a white face. He just pointed at Yuan Kuoyu's face several times and cursed that the court was all started by your boss.

It’s also a blessing that Grand Secretary Guo was so calm that he didn’t fight in person. Otherwise, Grand Secretary Yuan, the good student of the Five Provinces, who was already completely shameless, would have really responded to it. In that case, the scene would be very embarrassing.

Hong Yuao, the Grand Secretary of the Cabinet, was the spokesperson for the Zhongzhen Camp of Huguang and the Yaohuang Shisanjia in the Tang Dynasty. Although he supported the Tang Dynasty from the bottom of his heart because of Emperor Longwu, when Guo Zhiqi and Duke Xiang of Song and others had a dispute, Mr. Hong always came forward to persuade the scene in a habit, rather than helping one side.

Ding Zhixiang was an old minister of the Shaowu regime, and his closeness to the Tang King was naturally no worse than that of Hong Yuao. Although he did not surrender to the Qing Dynasty, he had always been a guest of honor for local officials of the Qing Dynasty before the restoration of Guangzhou. He had contributed a lot to the Qing Dynasty in terms of money and grain expenditure in the village. If Zhou Shixiang had not picked him up and appointed him as a criminal official in order to gather the store, he would have probably been listed for parade when the local liquidation was settled and sent a gentry official to the pseudo-Qing Qing Dynasty.

When Wencun persuaded him to enter, he also entrusted the light of Shaowu's old minister, so Ding Zhixiang was able to show his face in front of the Tang King. However, only that, with Ding Zhixiang's qualifications, he could not enter the cabinet. It was the Tang King who asked Guo Zhiqi to ask that Shaowu's old minister should someone enter the cabinet, and then a piece of pie fell on Ding Zhixiang. Otherwise, the great thing about entering the cabinet to manage politics would not be as good as Ding Zhixiang.

The Tang King ordered Ding Zhixiang to enter the cabinet. Guo Zhiqi had some opinions, but he thought that it would be a bad thing to have one more person in the cabinet who was close to His Highness of the Tang Dynasty. Besides, Ding Zhixiang had been the six officials to Zhou Shixiang, and had intersections with Zhou Shixiang's army general's mansion. If there was anything in the future, there would always be a help in the cabinet. Unexpectedly, Ding Zhixiang not only did not help Guo Zhiqi, but was very close to Duke Xiang of Song and Yuan Kuoyu. What Guo Zhiqi said, he didn't say anything. Once Song Yuan spoke, he immediately agreed, which made Guo Zhiqi so angry that he hated that the Tang King had misjudged the person and introduced this ungrateful wolf into the cabinet.

At present, the five people in the cabinet, Duke Xiang of Song, Yuan Kuoyu, and Ding Zhixiang are the iron-core Zhou Ding, and Hong Yuao does not help each other. Although Guo Zhiqi is the chief assistant, he is alone and unable to make a decision, which makes it difficult for the cabinet to make a decision. He has to put his hope on the upcoming secondary assistant Lian Chengbi.

Zhou Shixiang's letter was sent to the Governor's Office by Ye Jianyuan, the first town of the first town, who was at the city. After the letter was delivered, Ye Jianyuan did not say anything threatening, but ordered his subordinates to "sell troops and deploy military forces" outside the city. At that time, the sound of cannons and muskets scared the people in Qinzhou City, as well as civil and military officials, all feared.

The governor of Qinzhou was Lei Xianchu, the governor who was ordered by Zhang Xiaoqi to Luo Ding to annex the Taiping Camp, but now he has been promoted to general. Faced with the inquiry from the Governor and the Governor, General Lei said for a long time: "I dare not stop my post."

Helplessly, Lian Chengbi and Zhang Xiaoqi finally lowered their heads and came to Guangzhou. The second auxiliary cabinet and the head of the Little Jiuqing given by the Tang Dynasty regime may not be very attractive to these two people. Lian Chengbi regarded himself as a loyal minister of Yongli. If he wanted to surrender to the Tang Dynasty and Zhou Shixiang, he would have been surrendered long ago, and there would be no need to wait until today. The governor of the four prefectures Zhang Xiaoqi was the same, but the governors and the governors finally did not have the courage to try to fight the invincible Taiping Army in Guangdong, so they could only go to Guangzhou with their noses. As soon as the two left Qinzhou, Lei Xianchu led his troops out of the city to accept the Taiping Army's reorganization. At this point, the two prefectures in Guangdong except Shaozhou and Nanxiong were still occupied by the "Qing Army" and the entire territory was restored.

After Lian Chengbi and Zhang Xiao joined Guangzhou, the King of Tang sent Pan Yinglong, the former eunuch of the Zhongzhen Camp military inspector, who was now the eunuch in charge of the seal in the inner court, to go out to the city to greet him. The representative of Ding Zhixiang also came to greet him. When Zhou Shixiang heard about Lian and Zhang, they came, and said "I know" and stopped asking.

After Pan Yinglong welcomed Lian Chengbi and Zhang Xiaoqiu into the city, he took them to meet the King of Tang. Along the way, Eunuch Pan wanted to get close to Lian and Zhang. Although he was appointed as the Seal Seal Seal by the King of Tang, he was a member of the Yongli Inner Court, and the King of Tang might not have much trust in him. These days, I heard that His Highness the King of Tang was about to supervise the country, and there were many eunuchs coming to Guangzhou, including the Inner Court of Chongzhen, the Longwu Inner Court, and the Shaowu Inner Court, and a few of them were from the Tang Palace back then. For these eunuchs, the King of Tang ordered people to be included in the business. Originally, there were twenty-four supervisors in the Great Inner Court, so there were no need for so many internal officials now. So the King of Tang established the Sili and Seal, the Three Supervisors, and the Inner Court, which was also a guard of honor, which was placed about one hundred eunuchs.
