Chapter 2 Lan Hexu
When Qi Xuansu went to the Dijing Provincial Mansion, he was just a principal, so he couldn't rank in the entire Provincial Mansion, and it can be said that any deputy mansion master was higher than him. After going to Ziwei Hall, he was also the last of the many deputy hall masters, and he really didn't have much right to speak.
But this time is different, looking at the entire Borneo Provincial Mansion, he ranks fourth, equivalent to Li Tiangang of the Fenglinzhou Provincial Mansion, there are only three people in front of him, that is, Lan Hexu, the real person in charge of the mansion, Wang Jiaohe, the real person in the mansion, and Chen Shuhua, the chief deputy mansion master. There is also a first-grade spirit official, although the grade is high, but because he is not a Taoist priest, he must be behind Qi Xuansu when he is ranked.
When Qi Xuansu first arrived, the first thing he did was to introduce Qi Xuansu to others, and the second thing was to introduce others to him one by one, and the welcome ceremony was essentially to dispel the strangeness between the two parties. Of course, if the children of the Zhang family go to serve in the Wuzhou Provincial Government, or the children of the Li family go to the Qizhou Provincial Government to take up the post, it is another matter.
Yao Shu, as the chief deputy hall master of Ziwei Hall, announced the appointment of Jin Que on behalf of Jin Que, and from today, Qi Xuansu officially became one of the nine deputy masters of the Borneo Provincial Mansion, acting as the second deputy head of the palace.
Then Lan Hexu, the great real man of the Zhangfu, introduced the real person of the Zhangfu and the other eight deputy masters to Qi Xuansu.
Seven Pingzhang Dazhen, one for each of the three Dao, and the remaining four uphold neutrality, among which the representative of Taiping Dao is naturally Zhang Qihan, the head of Fenglinzhou Daofu, and Lan Hexu is the Pingzhang Dazhen who represents the Quanzhen Dao.
It can be seen from the name of this great real person that he is a "he" generation, that is, a disciple of the sixth generation, and the third master belongs to the same generation, for the eighth generation of disciples, he is already a grandfather, and for the ninth generation of disciples, that is the ancestral generation.
In addition, "Hexu" is also a sacred mountain recorded in the "Great Wilderness East Classic": "In the Great Wilderness, there is a mountain named 'Hexu', which comes out of the sun and the moon." ”
As for the surname Lan, there are indeed not many in the Daomen, it is not a big surname, but it does not mean that the surname Lan is a rising star, and it can also be traced back to the earliest thirty-six real people, among whom there is a patriarch surnamed Lan, who belongs to the Quanzhen Dao, but the inheritance is from the ancient pavilion soap road.
When the Golden Tent entered the Central Plains, the world was in turmoil, the red land was thousands of miles, ten rooms and nine emptiness, and the ghost road prospered. The Pavilion Soap Road built a ghost country cave in the north of the mountain, intending to build a ghost country on the ground and unify the Daomen by violent means. This led other Daomen factions to join forces to attack Beibi Mountain, at first, the Pavilion Soap Road did not fall behind, until the Golden Horde withdrew from the Central Plains, the world was transformed from chaos to rule, the Great Wei Dynasty was established, humanity prospered and the ghost road withered, the Pavilion Soap Road was completely defeated, basically destroyed, and only a few branches were left to withdraw from the Central Plains.
One went to the Golden Horde and merged with shamanism. One went to Fenglin Continent and merged with the Yin and Yang Dao. One went to Po Sazhou and had a certain integration with the local Buddhist forces.
This Patriarch Lan was born in the Po Sazhou lineage, and he is also a Buddhist cultivator. It's just that Cihang's line already has the prototype of the integration of the three religions, and this Lan Patriarch is more inclined to means such as "White Bone View", which still has a somewhat gloomy temperament.
Lan Hexu is the descendant of this Lan Patriarch, and naturally like the Li family and the Zhang family, he has many family experiences.
In fact, Qi Xuansu had already done his homework before coming here, and at this time, it was nothing more than matching the name with the face one by one.
But then again, the appointment of a new person in the second place, from the head of the mansion to all the people below, is an extraordinary thing in itself.
This brief welcome ceremony was presided over by Lan Hexu, and after the appointment was announced, Qi Xuansu also said a few words, which was regarded as an inauguration declaration, and then the Dazhen personally introduced his colleagues, and then there was a reception banquet.
Who is qualified to sit at the table, which one is not the person of Bigu? It can be seen that dining is no longer a simple matter of food and clothing, but a ritual, and a social behavior.
At the end of the banquet, Wang Jiaohe, the real person in charge, was the first to get up and leave under the pretext that he still had important things to do.
From beginning to end, Wang Jiaohe's attitude has always been lukewarm, and he didn't even say a few words.
What Qi Xuansu's "mission" is, few people know, except for the Earth Master, Heavenly Master, Donghua Zhenren, Cihang Zhenren, and Dazhen Lan Hexu, that is, Qi Xuansu himself and Gong Jiaojun know. Gong Jiaojun naturally wouldn't reveal these things, that was to cut himself off from Donghua Zhenren, and he didn't want his own future.
Most people with a heart can only roughly guess that the Quanzhen Dao is going to move the Borneo Dao, and some people are going to be unlucky. As for the exact extent of the movement, it is difficult to guess.
Killing a few small fish and shrimp is moving, and uprooting the Wang family is also moving,???????????????? The difference is too great.
However, few people think that Quanzhen Dao will make up his mind to uproot the Wang family, after all, when it comes to a real person, most of them think that they want to knock the Wang family.
Wang Jiaohe, as a real person in charge of the mansion, must have heard some rumors, and he also knew the conflict between Wang Danqing and Qi Xuansu, so naturally he would not have a good face for Qi Xuansu.
It's just that Wang Jiaohe also doesn't think that Jin Que has made up his mind, it is not a secret that Qi Xuansu has a conflict with the Wang family, in his opinion, Jin Que sent a person who has a conflict with his own family to come over to serve as the second seat, more to block him, to play a monitoring role, so as not to "join the same stream" between the two sides, and at the same time expressed Jin Que's dissatisfaction.
If it is done directly, the process should be to transfer him to Yujing as the head of the hall, first transfer the tiger from the mountain, separate him from the Wang family, let him be isolated in Yujing, let the Wang family have no leader in the local area, and then send a new head of the house to slowly sort out. But Jin Que didn't do this, which means that Jin Que doesn't intend to do things absolutely well.
As for the real person in charge, he is old, and he is not too many days old, and he doesn't care about mundane affairs, and most of the time he is a hands-off shopkeeper.
Wang Jiaohe would not have thought that Jin Que would do the opposite this time, which is not a kind of paralysis.
After the banquet was over, Lan Hexu, the real person, said, "Chief Chen, you send Chief Yao to rest on my behalf." ”
Then he said to Qi Xuansu: "Qi Cixi, you come with me." ”
Qi Xuansu is not the leader of this mission, his task is to cooperate and assist this Pingzhang Dazhen, so it is very necessary for the two to have a conversation.
However, in the eyes of outsiders, it was Wang Jiaohe, the real person in charge, who left first, leaving behind a mess, so that the real person in charge of the mansion, who had never been very in charge, had to come forward in person. After all, Chen Shuhua is only the chief deputy mansion master, and Qi Xuansu is the same as the deputy mansion master, and the two sides are evenly matched, and there is no relationship between superiors and subordinates in the strict sense.
The Sheji Palace is divided into five parts, which used to correspond to the benevolence, righteousness, propriety, faith, and wisdom of Confucianism, and now corresponds to the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth.
Entering from the main gate is the earth palace, the five elements are in the center, and it is also similar to the main hall, this place is the most solemn, and it is also the most ordinary, it is no different from the countless Taoist palaces under the sky. At this time, Lan Hexu, the great real person, led Qi Xuansu to the Water Palace.
As soon as you enter the water palace, you can see that it is a big lake, it is summer, and there are countless lotus flowers in full bloom, which is in response to the ancient poem "the lotus leaves are infinitely green, and the lotus flowers are different red in the sun." ”
A zigzag corridor was built over the lake leading to the center of the lake, where there was a continuous palace built on the water. In addition to this, there is no shortage of water pavilions, and there are also some buildings on the surrounding shore.
Lan Hexu walked in front and introduced: "Qi Cixi, you and I will be on the side of the Water Palace in the future, and the Wang Zhangfu and Chief Chen will be in the Fire Palace on the other side. ”
Qi Xuansu's heart moved.
Water and fire are opposed, and water and fire are incompatible. This layout is really interesting.
The two walked through the water corridor and came to the palace, and Lan Hexu went directly to his signature room.
After the era of five generations of great masters, the layout of all the signing rooms of Daomen is similar, and there is no need to introduce too much, the difference is that compared with the Central Plains, Borneo is an important transit point for maritime trade between the East and the West, in addition to maintaining the Central Plains and some local features, there are also some Western influences.
Lan Hexu didn't go to the study, but sat down in the living room, there was a coffee table and a set of Western-style sofas, he raised his hand and pointed to the opposite position: "Tianyuan, sit." ”
[The problem of slow update of new chapters has finally been solved on the app that can change the source, download it here.]
Outside just now, Lan Hexu called Qi Xuansu "Qi Cixi", and his surname was added to his position. Now that the two are alone, he changed his title to Qi Xuansu's table word "Tianyuan", showing enough closeness.
Qi Xuansu sat down, and was thinking about taking the initiative to say the first sentence, Lan Hexu had already gotten straight to the point: "Tianyuan, you are not easy as the second deputy mansion master, you are a thorn in the eye and a thorn in the flesh of others, you have to be prepared." ”
Qi Xuansu immediately continued with this and said: "I have just arrived, and the various circumstances are unknown, and I am about to ask the Great True Man for advice. ”
Between superiors and subordinates, the boss can be approachable, but the subordinates cannot be unmeasured. Lan Hexu's expression of calling Qi Xuansu is to indicate closeness, but Qi Xuansu can't have the illusion that the two are forgetful friends.
Lan Hexu said: "There seem to be many reasons why you were sent to Borneo, but in fact, there is only one reason, and there is only one point for this reason. ”
This is Lan Hexu's signing room, so you don't have to worry about the conversation between the two of you leaking out.
Qi Xuansu asked: "What the Great True Man said is extremely true, so what does the Great True Person think, where is this point?" ”
Lan Hexu did not sell Guanzi: "In Sheji Palace, in the real person Wang Jiaohe in the Zhangfu." ”
Of course, Qi Xuansu knew that if there was no matter of Wang Jiaohe, he might not have come to Borneo.
Lan Hexu continued: "The difficulty is that the Daomen cannot be punished without teaching, nor can they kill people for no reason. Last time, Donghua Zhenren asked Wang Jiaohe to go to Yujing, and he had already given a warning, but Wang Jiaohe was obsessed and had to be punished. But even if Daomen decides to do it, it must stand on moral and legal principles and convince others, which needs to be supported by sufficient evidence. ”
"This leads to a problem, by the time the Wang family really takes action, it will be too late, and it will have a very bad impact, and even cause a considerable degree of damage. It can be prevented before it happens, and it is difficult to grasp the handle of the Wang family, which is the evidence I said. ”
