Chapter 70: The Royal Family
Qi Xuansu stood in front of the Western-style floor-to-ceiling window with his hands in his hands, looking out the window at the Penglai Pool.
Shen Yulai, Wan Xiuwu, Yue Liuli, Zhao Fuan, and Yanxiu all got their due ends.
Qi Xuansu is considered to be a wish, but for some reason, he can't talk about how to be happy, and he is a little unfazed.
It is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge. Ten years later, the mood is very different.
Zhang Yuelu came behind Qi Xuansu and asked, "What are you looking at?" ”
Qi Xuansu pointed out the window with his chin: "Deputy Hall Li is going to the Jade Emperor Palace, and that Lord Yun is also following." ”
Zhang Yuelu is not surprised: "Although we have always said that Taiping Dao and the imperial court are luring wolves into the house, it is undeniable that Taiping Dao has a deep penetration into the imperial court. Many people are under dual leadership, they are officials of the imperial court on the surface, and they are vassals of the Li family behind the scenes, or even simply members of the Li family. A dignified little national teacher, his words carry more weight than me. ”
Qi Xuansu asked, "What do you think of this little national teacher?" ”
Zhang Yuelu said: "If Li Tianzhen is the Eastern Emperor, then Li Changge is the Xuansheng." Of course, Li Tianzhen can't compare to the Eastern Emperor, and Li Changge can't compare to Xuansheng. ”
Qi Xuansu sighed: "Look at the surname Li, the three generations have an orderly inheritance, and the division of labor is clear, one main and one auxiliary. Look at your surname Zhang, it's still a mess. ”
Zhang Yuelu didn't speak.
It's a fact. She is not a saint, and she will inevitably be a little resentful of her family's lack of support. They are all surnamed Zhang, they are all the bloodlines of the ancestral heavenly master, and they have to be distinguished from each other, on the other hand, the Li family, the righteous son-in-law can also be in power.
Watching the painting boat sail away, Qi Xuansu asked, "What should we do next?" ”
"The key is what the Li family and the imperial court are planning, ...... over there in the Five Elements Mountain" Zhang Yuelu did not hide his worries.
Qi Xuansu said: "According to the reason, the Five Elements Mountain is also within the jurisdiction of the Dijing Provincial Mansion, which is related to the safety of Beilong, the Imperial Imperial Provincial Mansion went in to investigate carefully, it is reasonable, and Li Ruoshui can't stop it, but after Li Changge came, although he didn't seem to have done anything, I always felt that the situation had become complicated." ”
"Your feelings are not wrong." Zhang Yuelu's eyes were deep, "Are Li Ruoshui and Yunluo all the way?" Are Li Tianzhen and Li Tianyue all the way? No. They represent different forces and have different interests, although they are under the same command of Taiping Dao, they are all princes of one side. Prior to this, they not only acted independently, but also did not give in to each other, and even were faintly hostile, which can be described as a group of dragons without a leader. For example, it is difficult for Gao Ming to hide, some people contribute, and some people watch the fire and watch jokes from the other side, so it is naturally easy to break them one by one. ”
But after Li Changge came, they were all the way, and Li Changge played the role of overall coordination and central scheduling. Because in addition to the national teacher and Qingwei Zhenren, only Li Changge can subdue the princes of the Li family, not to say how Li Changge's realm cultivation is, but his future can be expected, looking at the qi of Taiping Dao, the position of the national teacher will be Li Changge's sooner or later, no one wants to be settled by the queen of the autumn, but is willing to bet in advance, mix with the dragon's work, and naturally listen to his orders. So you feel that the situation has become complicated, and you are right. Qi Xuansu suddenly said: "In this way, the boss sent you and Yao Pei over to let you play a similar role?" ”
Zhang Yuelu smiled bitterly and shook her head: "I hope." I was not valued in the Zhang family, and even faintly excluded, Yao Suyi was valued in the Yao family, but the influence of the Yao family in the Quanzhen Dao cannot be compared with the influence of the Li family in the Taiping Dao. The two of us together can have a tie with Li Changge, thank God. ”
Qi Xuansu said: "That's not necessarily, no matter what, you are the convener of the five-person group, this is your advantage, you are like a puppet emperor, Li Changge is like a powerful minister, no matter what, you hold the name of righteousness, if it really comes to a critical moment, you can still use the name of Jin Que to suppress people." ”
Zhang Yuelu smiled, and she didn't take it seriously.
In this regard, she is still better than Qi Xuansu, and what Qi Xuansu can think of, she can naturally think of.
Zhang Yuelu turned to say: "Recently, my energy has been focused on Qian Xiangyun, after all, she is a deputy mansion master, and she can't be careless." If you are idle, you can get closer to King Jin, and you have to rely on him to contain King Liao. ”
Qi Xuansu said casually: "Do you still use me to get close?" Shi Zhenren handled things properly by himself, and he couldn't be closer. ”
Then he was lightly kicked from behind by Zhang Yuelu.
"Nonsense, there's no one on the door." Zhang Yuelu reprimanded in a low voice, "It's okay to say this in front of me, and it reaches Uncle Shi's ears, aren't you afraid that she will trouble you?" ”
Qi Xuansu also knew that this was inappropriate, and said it as if Shi Bingyun had betrayed his hue, but he still said: "Shi Zhenren is generous, and he won't be as knowledgeable as me." ”
Zhang Yuelu smiled: "That's not necessarily, Master said that my uncle has always held grudges." ”
Qi Xuansu sighed: "The county official is better than the current management, speaking of which, Shi Zhenren is still my top boss, and this word must not reach her ears." ”
Zhang Yuelu said: "And King Jin, don't underestimate him, although he is not a pseudo-immortal, but it is said that he has the cultivation of the creation stage, in my opinion, it should be true, otherwise you should be able to surrender to my uncle?" ”
Qi Xuansu was taken aback: "I didn't even see half of it, I just thought it was an ordinary prince." ”
"Actually, there's nothing surprising, the predecessor of the Great Xuan Imperial Family was the North Dao Gate with the same name as Zhengyi, Taiping Dao, and Quanzhen Dao, and there have also been immortals, so what's so strange about the clans having supreme cultivation?" Zhang Yuelu was not surprised, "Don't talk about others, isn't that Qin Lingge from the clan?" Although he lost to Li Changge at the Three Sects Conference, his loss was not ugly, and it could even be regarded as a pity. It can be seen that the strength of the royal family cannot be underestimated. ”
"By the way, I also heard that the system of succession titles within the royal family is very strict, in addition to the principle of demotion to inherit the title, there is also an assessment every three years, just like the examination method of officials, including three major items, namely merit, cultivation, and miscellaneous. Meritorious service is similar to the meritorious system of our Daomen, cultivation is realm cultivation, and only those who rank among the heavens can get a full score for this item, and miscellaneous items are other assessments other than these two items. The last three comprehensive scores, full score of ten, nine points are excellent, eight points are good, more than six points are passing, less than six points are failing, a total of three full points can be upgraded to a level of knighthood, until the prince, excellent can be rewarded, good is not rewarded and not punished, passing will be fined, failing will be demoted to a first-class title in advance. If you don't learn and don't know how to do it, you will be cut into a concubine if you don't wait for your son to inherit the title, so there will be no mediocrity if you can sit in the position of the prince. ”
"You may have to ask, in that case, why is there an emperor who can't cultivate? That's because the old emperor only has this one son, which is the same as a fool inheriting the throne, the sky and the earth are big, and his own blood is the largest. Only the heirs will inherit from the close branch clan. Not everyone can use the 'Heart of Immortal Stone' to make up for their own innate deficiencies, at least they have to be a scattered person. ”
Qi Xuansu said thoughtfully: "Heaven and man can get full marks, and everyone must work hard towards heaven and man, and after reaching the realm of heaven and man, he will experience all kinds of mysteries, even if he is not forced by the assessment, he will continue to walk, the royal family is rich, and there is no shortage of various resources, no wonder there is a cultivation in the creation stage." Speaking of which, this is much stricter than ours. Our Taoism is to calculate addition, they are to calculate subtraction, and a failure must be made up for with three perfect marks, and no one dares to slack off. ”
Zhang Yuelu asked: "That's the truth, in this regard, the royal family is more enlightened than us Taoist families. ”
Qi Xuansu said again: "Zi Dazhen is the crown to ascend the throne, this year is the forty-second year of Jiushi, that is, sixty-two years old, which is a good age to choose the big master. It is said that the Queen Mother was only eighteen years old when she was born to His Majesty, and when she gave birth to King Liao, she was thirty-seven years old, with a gap of nineteen years. In this way, the King of Liao is forty-three years old, in the prime of life, what realm is he cultivating? ”
Zhang Yuelu said while recalling: "I heard the master mention that this King of Liao is young and ambitious, and at the age of thirty, he is already a cultivator in the immeasurable stage of heaven and man, and then he suffered a setback, as if he lost to a first-class member of the Qingping Society named 'Qingshan Wet', and he has been standing still in the immeasurable stage for many years, but after all, he is among the celestials, so it does not affect the assessment, and the title is always the king of Liao." It is only in recent years that it can be regarded as stepping out of the shadows and entering the stage of creation of heaven and man. ”
When Qi Xuansu heard the words "green shirt wet", his heart couldn't help sinking, but his face didn't show it, and he quietly changed the topic: "I don't understand, why some people lose their mood after they lose, what kind of mood is damaged, what is not a step in their life, isn't it just losing, and they will win it back in the future, and what does the state of mind have to do with cultivation?" Aren't we all cultivating our strength but not cultivating our minds? Cultivation naturally relies on water grinding. Besides, if you can't cross it, you need to use external force. Look at me, I never feel ashamed to catch up with you by relying on 'Xuanyu'. To put it bluntly, I still can't afford to lose. ”
Zhang Yuelu said: "It's easy to get up when you're too young, and it's easy to get up after you fall." When you fight with others, you will do whatever it takes, not for the sake of winning, but for the sake of success, if you can achieve the goal by losing, you don't mind losing, it can be seen that there is no desire to win, and naturally there will be no mood statement. Those who are easily affected by the mood are mostly martial idiots. ”
Qi Xuansu said helplessly: "Are you praising me?" Or scold me? ”
Zhang Yuelu smiled: "Of course it's a compliment to you." ”
At the same time, Qi Xuansu was also thinking about another thing in his heart.
Could it be that the death of "Qingshan wet" is related to the King of Liao?
