Chapter 59: The Clan
Qi Xuansu walked out of the courtyard with a knife, and kept thinking of a sentence in his head.
I have three virtues, said kindness, said thrifty, said dare not be the first in the world.
Now it seems that it is not easy to keep the three virtues of the Taishang Dao Ancestor up and down the Dao Gate.
Fortunately, Xuan Sheng probably saw that if it was enforced, few people would be qualified, so it was just advocated, not bound by the law, it was really not so frugal, as long as it did not involve greed for ink and other situations, it would not be punished.
It's like Qi Xuansu was invited to a banquet today, and he spent a lot of money, so he couldn't be counted. In the same way, the matter between Shi Bingyun and Qin Quanyi is not a day or two, it is almost well known, at most, some people criticize her reputation and style, after all, she is not married, but no one uses this to attack Shi Bingyun for being frugal, because there is indeed no such article in the Daomen law.
Of course, it is not a sin or a sin, and when you are promoted in the future, there will be no frugality and virtue. To put it bluntly, although this is not a minus, but a plus, especially when you are promoted to the second grade Taiyi Taoist, if the credit is not big enough, the ability is not strong enough, and the realm cultivation is not high enough, you must rely on these relatively virtual moral bonuses to cross the threshold.
Qi Xuansu thought about it, with what he did, he was about not to be next to the three virtues, he was not kind, but he dared to be the first in the world, not bad for this frugality, he really didn't worry about having more debts, he didn't itch if he had more lice, he broke the jar and broke it, let him go.
】
Just a few more words after this.
Kindness and courage; Thrifty can be wide; Don't dare to be the first in the world, so you can become a long.
Now she is merciful and courageous; thrifty and extensive; Leave it behind and come first; then dead.
It means that with loving-kindness, one can be brave; With frugality, so you can be generous; I don't dare to be ahead of the people in the world, so I can become the chief of all things.
Now he has abandoned his love and pursued bravery; discarded frugality in favor of generosity; Abandon concessions and strive to be the first, and the result is death.
Qi Xuansu can be sure that he is the "mercy and bravery" in the mouth of the Taishang Dao Ancestor, he is ruthless to the enemy, he attaches great importance to the cultivation of the realm, and he is also "the first to give up", who doesn't want to walk in front of others and be a master? The only thing that can be celebrated is that he is "thrifty and not wide", does this count as keeping the final bottom line? There is only a thin line between going to death and going to death.
This is the Taishang Dao Ancestor warning him, not allowed to be generous, and if you are not frugal and generous, you will perish.
Qi Xuansu thought about these crooked theories, and walked along Penglai Pond to the semicolon of the Taiping Inn.
The north is dry, and there is wind and sand blowing from the Golden Horde, so there is always a layer of floating dust on the ground, which lingers.
At this moment, a carriage whizzed past Qi Xuansu's side, rolling Qi Xuansu in dust.
Qi Xuansu was full of the teachings of the Taishang Dao Ancestor, his mind was seriously wandering, and a little floating dust was not dangerous, so he failed to trigger his "magic knife" instinct, so he couldn't dodge it at the first time.
The carriage was hung with the emblem of the Great Wei clan - this was the result of the eastward learning of the West, because the Western aristocracy had a tradition of using heraldry, different colors, different patterns, and different identities. In recent years, many clans and nobles have followed suit and specially designed a logo for their own families, such as the logo of the royal family and the clan is Baishan Xuanshui, which means that the holy land of the North Daomen, Taibai Mountain, is located.
In fact, as early as the Shenzong period of the previous dynasty, Western missionaries came to the East to preach one after another, and many scholars and doctors had been affected, the most famous being a certain elder. In this dynasty, the maritime trade was more prosperous, the exchanges between the East and the West were more frequent, and the influence of Western learning was greater.
These coats of arms are just small paths, a few years ago because of the abolition of the imperial capital of the province, there are even people who believe in the holy court, accept baptism, take a Western name, called the "religious name", similar to the Taoist name of the Daomen, which makes the Taoist and the imperial court very angry, and lodged a solemn protest to the holy court, threatening to ban religion in the imperial capital, asking the holy court to restrain the missionaries, if the holy court does not act, then the Taoist gate and the imperial court will discipline him.
The Holy See had to compromise and change its policy, explicitly ordering all missionaries not to arbitrarily recruit clans, nobles, and officials as believers without the permission of the Imperial Court and the Daomen.
Qi Xuansu stopped, a little displeased.
What happened to the clan? He had just met King Jin, and King Jin was also amiable. Unless it was the King of Liao who stepped down from the carriage, an explanation must be given.
As for the difference between the royal family and the clan, it is actually the difference between the large and small clans. If you take the Zhang family as an analogy, the branch of the Heavenly Master is the royal family, and the branch of Zhang Yuelu is the clan. Many people say all day long that Zhang Yuelu is from a small sect, if you put it in the context of the royal family, then it means that she is an ordinary clan, although she has outstanding ability, but she is not a prince, and her bloodline is too far away to inherit the unification.
Put Daxuan here, Emperor Gaozu was three brothers back then, and the descendants of the other two kings were naturally all clansmen. And today, only His Majesty the Emperor is the royal family, when the first emperor reigned, the King of Liao, as the prince, was naturally a member of the royal family, but after the death of the first emperor, the King of Liao was officially crowned king, which is equivalent to a brother family, the emperor is a large sect of the family, and the King of Liao is only a small sect, which is considered a clan. However, the Queen Mother is still there, insisting that King Liao is still a member of the royal family, and no one will pick on it.
The carriage also stopped, and the coachman walked briskly towards Qi Xuansu.
This is an old man, although he is a coachman, but he is meticulously dressed and the clothes are expensive, and no one will think of him as a coachman unless he sees him step out of the driver's place.
His hair was snow-white, tied with a jasper hairpin, he didn't smile, and apologized to Qi Xuansu: "Because I was in a hurry, I bumped into Your Excellency, and I hope to forgive my sins." ”
Qi Xuansu was a little bored, he thought that someone would jump down and scold him for being blind and blocking the way, but it turned out to be an apology, there are still many "good people" in this imperial capital. Or is it that after the status is high, there are "good people" all around?
However, Qi Xuansu quickly figured out that it was not that everyone in the Imperial Capital City was easy to talk to, but that he was no longer the same person he used to be. Although he didn't wear the formal attire of the Four Grades Sacrifice Wine Daoist today, he had two treasures hanging from his waist, as long as he had a little eyesight, he would not regard him as a powerless commoner, and naturally there would be no scene of scolding him for being blind and blocking the way.
To put it bluntly, watch people put down dishes.
Qi Xuansu dusted off his body: "It's fine." ”
His eyes also looked at the stopped carriage, and only then did he pay attention to the illustrious coat of arms, and only then could he take a closer look, it turned out to be a Western-style four-wheeled carriage, with the door open on one side, equipped with glass windows, and the decoration was quite luxurious, not the grandeur of an idle clan.
So Qi Xuansu re-examined the old man in front of him, such a clan went out without a guard, if it was said to be a white dragon fish suit, but this dazzling carriage was really unconvincing. Then there is only one explanation, the old man in front of him is a master while acting as a coachman, but also as a guard.
But Qi Xuansu didn't even see the clue at first glance, and it wasn't until he figured out this key that Qi Xuansu took a closer look and could be regarded as seeing a few clues.
The old man noticed Qi Xuansu's scrutinizing gaze, his face changed slightly, and he was about to turn around and leave.
As a result, Qi Xuansu said in one sentence: "It is really strange and strange that a dignified heavenly man is willing to be a slave." ”
The old man's face changed drastically, and he turned around sharply. Then he shot at Qi Xuansu.
Qi Xuansu's feeling is only one word, fast.
This kind of speed, Qi Xuansu has only seen it on Yao Pei's body, and it is more because Yao Pei made a move in advance.
It was already too late to draw the sword, and at the last moment, Qi Xuansu could only manifest the golden body, leaving no flaws.
I don't know if the old man deliberately kept his hand, or if he sacrificed too much else because of his speed, in short, the weight of the old man's blow was not as good as Zhao Fuan's punch, after Qi Xuansu manifested his golden body, he was supported by his martial arts physique, and he was not seriously injured.
The two of them parted at the touch of a button.
The old man frowned: "Wu Zhu? ”
Qi Xuansu pressed the handle of the "Fei Yingbai" knife on his waist, and said in a deep voice: "It's not in accordance with the rules to hurt people if you don't agree with a word, right?" ”
Just now, Qi Xuansu actually didn't see through the details of the old man, he just made a tentative speech, but he didn't expect the old man's reaction to be so big. However, he is not afraid, although the old man's speed is very fast, if he turns on the "magic knife" instinct and saves time to react, he can still keep up.
The old man was silent.
He also didn't expect that the young man in front of him was also a genuine celestial, no wonder he was swaggering through the market with two treasures, at such an age, he thought that he was a Taoist handsome, not a villain, which made him feel a little at ease, but also a little worried. Because of the affairs of the Dijing Daofu, several Daomen Junyan came to Dijing, I don't know which one is the person in front of me? It can't be Zhang Yuelu, it's a woman, is it the extremely mysterious Yao Pei?
At this moment, the door of the carriage opened, and a figure stepped out of it: "What happened?" ”
The old man's face changed again, and he didn't care about Qi Xuansu, so he retreated to the side of the carriage and blocked in front of the figure.
Judging by the sound, the owner of the carriage was a woman.
Clan woman.
Qi Xuansu really didn't have much experience in this area, so he knew a Qin Xiang, but a woman from the clan who could make a celestial person an entourage was probably not an ordinary person.
Qi Xuansu thought about it, there are many women in the clan, it is better not to provoke him, especially Zhang Yuelu is in the imperial capital, if there are any rumors, Zhang Yuelu may not believe it, but he is uncomfortable, so he decided to take a step back: "It's just a misunderstanding." ”
The old man did not refute.
It's just a misunderstanding.
"Master Chen, give me a look." The woman said.
The old man hesitated slightly, but still let go of his body and showed the woman behind him.
Qi Xuansu finally saw the woman's true face.
Although Qi Xuansu is a person who has seen some of the world, he has to admit that the woman in front of him is really beautiful, what skin is better than snow, autumn water in the eyes, and eyebrows are like far away, can be used on the woman's body.
This is reasonable, from Emperor Gaozu, the three brothers are good-looking, and his queen is the ancestor of Cihang, not to mention the appearance, has the qualification to be the first beauty in the world, Emperor Taizong will set the strengths of his parents.
As a royal family, the daughters-in-law they marry are naturally beauties, and they have been passed down from generation to generation, and they are really beautiful both men and women, such as Qin Quanyi, whom Qi Xuansu had just met, and who entered Shi Bingyun's eyes, needless to say. There is also Qin Lingge that Qi Xuansu has never seen, but Zhang Yuelu has seen it, according to Zhang Yuelu, Qin Lingge is praised as the most beautiful man in the world, but it is not a false name, when he arrived in Yujing, he provoked many female crowns to watch, and Li Changge did not have this treatment.
The woman saluted Qi Xuansu: "If there is anything abrupt, I still hope for Gongzi Haihan." Didn't ask for the son's name and surname? ”
Qi Xuansu said quietly: "Under the surname Qi, the double name Xuansu." ”
