唐周 / Tang Zhou (late Han)

唐周 / Tang Zhou enters the wiki through Hanji 923 as the 太平道 disciple from Jinan who discloses 张角’s uprising plan to the court in spring 184. The episode treats his report as the trigger that exposes 马元义, palace contacts, and the planned date of coordinated action.

Tang Zhou’s function is therefore not a full biography but a timing break. His disclosure lets 汉灵帝’s court arrest Ma Yuanyi and begin a purge of believers, while also forcing Zhang Jiao to notify local leaders and begin the Yellow Turban uprising early.
