Chapter 19 Weiming
Qi Xuansu and Qi Jiaozheng initially reached a common intention. In fact, the two of them have already made it very explicit. It is nothing more than Qi Xuansu's support for Qi Jiaozheng as the Great Master of the Palm Palace of Zixiao Palace. Qi Jiaozheng reciprocates and becomes Qi Xuansu's close ally.
Just imagine that Qi Xuansu can influence the decisions of the great master to a certain extent, while Zixiao Palace is the executive body, and Dazhenren of the Zhengong is the first executor. After the two joined forces, there are too many things they can do.
Going further, if Qi Xuansu becomes the chief Jinque Zhenren and the Ziweitang Zhenren, he is comparable to the external minister, and the Zixiao Palace Da Zhenren is comparable to the internal minister. If the inside and outside are united, he will be in power.
Even if you don’t consider the future, just focus on the present. Jiang Dazhen takes good care of Qi Xuansu, which has given Qi Xuansu a lot of convenience, but Qi Xuansu cannot be taken for granted. When Jiang Dazhen ascends to death, if the newly appointed Dazhen of the Palm Palace does not take care of him, such as Su Yuanzai, then Qi Xuansu will be very constrained.
If the two are not in harmony, such as Yao Shu, then the Grand Master of the Palm Palace can even create a rift between Qi Xuansu and the Grand Master. After all, Qi Xuansu cannot be with the Grand Master all day long. His main job is the Grand Master of the Palm Palace, but the Grand Master of the Palm Palace of the Zixiao Palace can meet the Grand Master every day, which is a great advantage.
Therefore, Qi Xuansu must let those who are close to him take power.
Of course, the final decision was the mastermind. Qi Xuansu didn't dare to make a promise. If Donghua real person had other ideas, Qi Xuansu could only recognize it. In Xiao Yin's words, loyalty!
Qi Xuansu and Qi Jiaozheng walked out one after another, and did not leave Zixiao Palace together. If they walked together, they would inevitably figure out many meanings in the eyes of others. Because Qi Xuansu still had to take Xiao Yin, he fell behind, and he saw the Grand Master and the Emperor walking out of the Weiming Palace of Zixiao Palace.
"Weiming Palace" is taken from the five thousand words of the Taoist ancestor: If you want to shrink it, you must strengthen it; if you want to weaken it, you must strengthen it; if you want to abolish it, you must strengthen it; if you want to take it away, you must firmly join it. This is called Weiming. That is, the signing room of the great master.
Logically speaking, the first Taoist priest and the second Taoist priest were talking alone inside, and their respective entourages should wait respectfully outside.
However, after becoming the leader of the Great Master, Donghua proposed the first initiative, which was to not engage in formalization and eliminate bureaucracy. Although it was just an initiative, who dared to disobey it? It is said that new officials took office for three reasons and could not get enough eyes. At this time, they fought against the leader and flattered the horse's hooves. Isn't it unhappy to deliver it to the door? So there were only two people waiting outside the Weiming Palace, namely Qin Lingge and Gong Jiaojun, and the others were all scattered.
Qi Xuansu was also dispersed, so it was a coincidence.
"Xuansu, Xiao Yin." The chief sect called Qi Xuansu, "Why are you still here?"
Of course, elders can call their names directly, and there is no saying that curses others. They can also call them "Tian" characters, all depends on the meaning of elders.
Qi Xuansu first patted Xiao Yin with his hand, signaling her not to talk nonsense, and then said, "Master, Zi Jida Zhenren. I just talked about some matters about land trade routes with Wanmiao Zhenren. There are three ancient trade routes in the Western Regions, the first one is the most famous, that is, starting from Xijing. In addition, the mainland channels to reach the Shengting are divided into two north and south: the south and south routes from Dunhuang to Yangguan, and the foot of Kunlun Mountains and the foot of Congling to Dayuan. The north route goes west from Dunhuang to Dayuan. Through the Cheshiqian Kingdom, the Kangju then travels west and the south route to Anxi on the east coast of the Sea God Sea, Tiaozhi and Daqin.
"In addition, there is an ancient trade route that takes more than 200 years, and is called the "Shu Shi Du Road". "Shu" is Shuzhou. "Shen Du" is the ancient name of Posa Continent. It is formed by connecting Lingguan Road, Wuqiantai, Qianzhong Ji Road and Bonan Road that run through Shuzhou and Yunzhou. It is about 6,000 miles long. It has always been an important hub for communication between the southwestern Central Plains and Borneo and Posa Continents, and plays an important role in promoting the development of the East and the West. I have always wanted to reopen the land trade route, and Wanmiao Zhenren just coincides with me."
The chief sect waved his hand: "Okay, let's talk about these things later. I've talked about you with Zi Ji Da Zhenren just now."
Qi Xuansu was a little surprised.
The master sect continued: "Lingge is a handsome man from the Confucian sect. You are the best among the eight generations of disciples of our Taoist sect. You two can compete with each other."
However, this statement has no beginning or end, and has no mention of the cause or the passage. I just want to discuss it. I wonder if the leader and the emperor made some bets or other reasons.
However, Qi Xuansu was not surprised, Qin Lingge mentioned it before.
From this point of view, this is a long time to prepare.
Should the second Taoist priest embarrass the first Taoist priest? Or should it pave the way for Li Changge in advance?
However, these are not important anymore. If you don’t talk about the overall situation, Qi Xuansu also dislikes Qin Lingge. He had no objection to Qin Lingge, but Qin Lingge took the initiative to provoke him at this time, which made him very dissatisfied.
Qi Xuansu said directly: "Please rest assured, Master."
This is probably the most common saying that Qi Xuansu said when facing Donghua Real Person, but it has indeed not disappointed Donghua Real Person. Qi Xuansu's high value in front of Donghua Real Person was all made by himself. If he did not "please rest assured," why should he let his master seek opinions in everything?
The master of the sect said: "Don't underestimate the enemy. Lingge is quite unique. After all, there are countless capable people in the world, and you are not the only one who is Qi Xuansu."
Qi Xuansu said seriously: "Yes."
Zi Jida Zhenren suddenly said, "Brother Pei Dao accepted a good disciple."
The chief sect smiled slightly: "Brother Qin Dao has many talents, unlike me, he only has two disciples."
Zi Jida Real Man doesn’t seem to like to joke: “Then I’ll say goodbye first.”
The great master did not mean to send him off: "Xuansu, I will send Zijida Zhenren on my behalf."
Qi Xuansu took the order and accompanied the emperor to the outsider.
After reaching the door of Zixiao Palace, the emperor finally spoke: "Please stop by Zhenren Qi."
Qi Xuansu stopped: "Zi Jida Zhenren walked slowly."
Ning Lingge, who was following the emperor, deliberately stopped for a moment and smiled and said, "Zhengren Qi, I am looking forward to this exchange."
Qi Xuansu said lightly: "In contrast to Mr. Qin, I don't expect these verbal things, and I even find it boring."
Xiao Yin learned from Qi Xuansu to speak: "It's very boring."
Qin Lingge was not angry and kept smiling: "I wonder what Zhenren Qi is interested in?"
Qi Xuansu said: "If Mr. Qin can help me open up four ancient commercial roads and boost the inland economy, then I will be very interested."
Xiao Yin followed and learned: "I'm interested."
Qin Lingge said: "So that's it. Qi Zhenren is a practical person, pragmatic but not sloppy. But please rest assured that this time it is definitely not as simple as talking."
"Oh?" Qi Xuansu said sincerely, "That's really great."
Xiao Yin became addicted to learning: "It's great."
Qi Xuansu patted Xiao Yin's head.
Xiao Yin held his head with both hands and finally stopped learning.
However, after being disturbed by Xiao Yin, the atmosphere was a mess. Not to mention the smell of gunpowder, it was even a bit funny. Qin Lingge had no intention of continuing to provoke Qi Xuansu: "Golden Que will be discussed tomorrow morning, I will wait for the advice of Master Qi and say goodbye."
Before Qi Xuansu could speak, Xiao Yin had already shouted: "No gift!"
Qin Lingge's expression was very strange. He probably had never encountered such a strange thing as Xiao Yin, whether it was the royal family or the Confucian school, and they were all in a proper manner and did not dare to go beyond the line. The king and father were above him, the dignity of the teacher, and the ethics were not a joke? But he could not raise such a child who was neither big nor young.
But seeing Qi Xuansu’s appearance doesn’t care about these things, so she doesn’t look like a father.
The old saying goes, only three generations of people can dress and eat. Qi Xuansu has made a fortune too quickly and is still a tyrant in the world. He doesn't know the principle of inheriting poetry and books, and he doesn't know how to educate his children, and he is afraid that he will not die in three generations.
Without thinking too much, Qi Xuansu turned around and entered Zixiao Palace and headed straight to Weiming Palace.
The palace sects naturally would not stop them, so Qi Xuansu pushed the door directly into the door.
Compared with the signing room in Ziweitang, the signing room of the Grand Master is different. First of all, it is big. Qi Xuansu's signing room in the Western Regions Dao Mansion is already very large, but Weiming Hall is three times the size of Qi Xuansu's signing room, and almost everyone can go to court.
The entire wall of the signing room is filled with red sandalwood bookcases, which are very spectacular, and are filled with various files and precious books, including notes and works by great masters of all generations.
Since the sixth generation of masters ascended to the forefront, this place has been closed. No one except Jiang Dazhenren is allowed to enter, so many files are outdated and need to be updated slowly.
At this time, the new chief tutor stood in front of the bookcase, pulled out a stack of files from the bookcase labeled "Ziweitang" and slowly looked through it.
Qi Xuansu came to stand not far away and shouted softly: "Master."
"I'm back." The chief sect responded, but did not look up, and still browsed the file in his hand. "What do you think about this so-called discussion?"
Qi Xuansu pondered for a moment: "In the past, Zi Jida Zhenren hid behind the scenes and asked Qingwei to fight with us. This time, Qingwei was deeply aware of the righteousness, put the interests of the Taoist sect first, and recognized the election results. Master was successfully elected as the seventh generation of masters. Zi Jida Zhenren finally couldn't continue to hide behind the scenes, so he could only come to the stage in person."
The master clerk closed the file in his hand and looked at Qi Xuansu: "Speak."
Qi Xuansu said: "I have heard of Zi Ji Da Zhenren, and I can say that my heart is higher than the sky. He has said several times that he is just an emperor, not an emperor, but a king and a father, not a saint. The meaning inside and outside is nothing more than that the great master took away the identity of the emperor, and the great master is a saint. It is rumored that Zi Ji Da Zhenren also said that one day he would take back the identity of the emperor. So in my opinion, this so-called exchange is a temptation. If we give in, he will be more and more aggressive."
The chief sir sighed: "I think so too. The national teacher is still old after all, and the real person of Qingwei knows the importance of it. Only the emperor is in the prime of Spring and Autumn Period and is ambitious, but he is a big trouble."
Without outsiders, the conversation between the master and the apprentice was not too scruples, and it was very straightforward.
Qi Xuansu hesitated for a moment and whispered: "There is also the Earth Master..."
The master silenced for a moment: "Let's talk about the Earth Master for now, this is a contradiction within us after all."
Qi Xuansu didn't know how to say anything else, so he could only say: "Yes."
