Chapter 209: See the Upper Palace Again

Finally, after looking at the garden, Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu are not good at staying here for a few days, after all, it has not been repaired yet, Zhang Yuelu's mansion is also in Taishangfang, you can go to her to live there for a few days.

When Xiao Yin left, he was reluctant to give up, and just saw a blank shadow wall, so he left his own ink treasure and painted a picture of Daozu riding a bull, which was lifelike.

Xiao Yin's painting skills are extremely good, and it is by no means what she herself said, she can't paint at all. Whether she is writing or drawing, she just wants to be lazy, and deliberately draws some stick figures on weekdays, one is to save effort, and the other is to fool Qi Xuansu.

Many people mistakenly think that the paintings of the Central Plains are biased towards freehand and are not realistic at all. In fact, it is a misunderstanding, not that the so-called freehand painting is not good, but freehand painting does not need too much painting skills as support, easy to use, also known as literati painting.

Literati painting and limerick poetry are a kind of thing, and the root of it is that Confucian scholars have the right to speak, which does not represent professionalism, but represents power. A high-powered person flaunts himself, paints a few strokes of splashed ink landscapes, or flowers, birds, fish and insects, black and painted, anyway, the image is good, the god is like, and there is no clear standard for the specific quality or badness, almost that meaning, there are naturally stinky feet, suitable for power realization.

But if it is realistic, then it can't be fooled, like is like, not like is not like, structure, perspective, light, light and shade, distance and proximity, all need real basic skills as support, how can those high-ranking people have time to study? Moreover, even if the technique is perfect, this kind of painting is very time-consuming, and cannot be achieved overnight like literati painting.

In fact, not only Confucianism is like this, but Taoism is no exception, many Taoist priests love to write poetry,

I can't hold it back as soon as I write it, but its level is far inferior to that of a real poet, and it is slightly stronger than limerick poetry, but because of its name, no one dares to pierce it. It's like the emperor's new clothes in Western stories.

Xiao Yin claims that he can't paint landscapes, and there is a little irony in it.

Zhang Yuelu's house is much smaller than the mansion of the eldest princess of Xuanzhen, but it is cleaned up very well, and it is made according to the standards of the mansion of the real people, but Zhang Yuelu generally lives in the house of Xuandu, and rarely comes to Taishangfang, which is somewhat deserted and unpopular.

Xiao Yin quickly liked it and didn't want to leave.

Early the next morning, Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu went out separately to visit their elders and colleagues.

Zhang Yuelu went to Cihang Zhenren's side, and Qi Xuansu went to Donghua Zhenren's side.

In addition, there are some bosses who are not direct bosses, but they also need to contact feelings, at least move around, such as Qi Jiaozheng, Xu Dacheng, Yao Shu and others.

The main theme is a person who is sophisticated.

Of course, about the matter of Nanyang United Trading Company, Qi Xuansu will not mention it, and there is no need to mention it, everything is in plain sight.

It is rumored that Yao Shu, the chief deputy hall master of Ziwei Hall, may take Wang Jiaohe's place as the real person in charge of the Borneo Provincial Mansion, which is also reasonable, and the Yao family should have a real person in charge. Yao Shu, as the chief deputy hall master of the first hall, can be said to be the first person among many chiefs, and even the first person under the real person, it is reasonable for him to replace him.

Some people also said that this is a good connection between Quanzhen Dao and Yao Shu to be the head of the Borneo Daofu, and Qi Xuansu to replace Yao Shu as the chief deputy hall master of Ziwei Hall. In a few more years, the Earth Master

Soaring, Donghua Zhenren ascended the throne, Qi Xuansu was released as the head of Borneo Daofu, and Yao Shu returned to Yujing to replace Donghua Zhenren as the head of Ziwei Hall.

Switch your left hand to your right hand, and then your right hand to your left hand.

However, Qi Xuansu didn't think it was so easy, his hard injury was that his qualifications were too shallow, how could he let him ascend to the sky in one step and directly become the chief deputy hall master of Ziwei Hall. And according to him, he will at least stay in Borneo for three or five years, and he can't wait for him for three or five years as the chief deputy hall master of Ziwei Hall, there is no such reason.

In fact, Qi Xuansu is still more happy to see Yao Shu as the head of the Borneo Provincial Government, after all, the two have dealt with each other, and their impression is not bad. Qi Xuansu is afraid of sending a new mansion lord who does not agree with his political views, although Qi Xuansu has the support of Lan Dazhen and the alliance of Xu Jiaorong, and has actually grasped the power of the Daofu, even in the face of the real person in charge, he also has the qualifications and confidence to confront, but if he really wants to do this, the impact is very bad, and it is best to give people a handle and get along in harmony.

This time around, Yao Shu's side is also the focus.

Yao Shu also understands this, although he is about to ascend to the rank of Zhizhenren, but for now, both of them are chiefs, both are second-grade Taiyi Taoists, and they can't talk about who overpowers whom, or they are equals.

Even if Yao Shu really became the real person in charge of the Borneo Provincial Mansion and became Qi Xuansu's nominal boss, the two were essentially partners.

It is best to be able to harmonize with each other.

When the Daomen arranges the candidates, they can't

Don't take this into account. If it's too ugly, you have to transfer one.

But if the relationship is too good, it is not suitable. For example, Wang Jiaohe and Chen Shuhua, the relationship is so good that it couldn't be better, covering each other, colluding, inside and outside, the alliance of interests is comparable to the unity of husband and wife, and in the end there was such a big mess.

Again, this should be taken into account.

Qi Xuansu ran a lot of places in one day, Ziwei Hall, Huasheng Hall, and Tianji Hall, these are the three major halls that belong to the sphere of influence of the Quanzhen Dao, and Qi Xuansu can't leave any of them behind.

The remaining six halls, Tiangang Hall, Duzhi Hall, and Ancestral Hall, are the three halls that belong to the Zhengyi sphere of influence. Then there are the Beichen Hall, the Shibo Hall, and the Fengxian Hall, which are the three halls in the sphere of influence of Taiping Dao. In addition to Beichen Hall, Qi Xuansu only needs to go to Tiangang Hall for a trip to meet Cihang Zhenren.

There is also a Qingwei real person in Beichen Hall, who has returned to Yujing from Fenglin Continent. After all, Qi Xuansu had worked under the account of Qingwei Zhenren, and his first martial achievements as an eight-generation disciple were obtained under the hands of Qingwei Zhenren, which was somewhat incense. Although in the end, because of the matter of Izang Nuozun, Qi Xuansu confronted Qingwei Zhenren, and the trouble was not very good-looking, Qi Xuansu originally decided not to see Qingwei Zhenren, but in Li Tianzhen's matter, Qingwei Zhenren was still relieved, and he also formed an alliance with Qi Xuansu, Qi Xuansu couldn't do without an explanation, so he finally decided to visit Qingwei Zhenren.

According to common sense, these three people don't want to see each other, they need to make an appointment, but Qi Xuansu has a special identity and a special relationship, and he really just wants to see him, even if the relationship is more estranged Qingwei real people,

can also communicate through Li Zhuyu.

In this way, he has seen all the three major real people.

Don't say the wrong thing, be careful. Qi Xuansu was very tired.

On the third day, Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu left Yujing and went to the Vientiane Dao Palace.

Xiao Yin is also going home.

Vientiane Dao Palace occupies a huge area, encompassing the entire Ziwei City. Longmen Mansion used to be the eastern capital of the two capitals of the east and west of the Great Qi, alongside the Xijing Mansion, and Ziwei City was the palace city of the eastern capital. Among them, the main hall of the great dynasty is called "Ming Hall", that is, "the hall of Ming politics and religion", that is, the upper palace where countless Taoist priests of the four grades of wine have been there.

Most of Ziwei City, which is outside the scope of the upper palace, is where the lower palace is located, plus the teaching and female crowns, among which there are tens of thousands of people. However, there are only more than 1,000 people who can successfully graduate through two big exams every year, and the rest of them have become ordinary Taoists. And among the more than 1,000 people, there may not even be even a hundred people who can go from the nine-grade Taoist priest to the fourth-grade wine priest. Those who can really go to the second grade Taiyi Taoist are less than a handful of them.

Qi Xuansu was among the number of this hand, and he was the youngest, which was a big deal for the entire Vientiane Dao Palace.

Strictly speaking, Vientiane Dao Palace is Qi Xuansu's maiden home, so when he went home this time, he was treated differently. The Daogong side has begun to publicize his deeds and inspire the children of the lower palace.

Qi Xuansu is the pride of Vientiane Dao Palace, as for Yue Liuli, Wan Xiuwu and the like, who is that? Not very cooked. There are so many children, how can they all remember.

The last time Qi Xuan came to the palace, he also came with Zhang Yuelu

, but that time it was Zhang Yuelu who sent him off by the way, but this time the two of them studied together.

The flying boat landed directly at Lake Hoshino, and there were already people waiting here, it was Zhang Jixian and several other special Jinzi teachings.

The teaching and learning of Vientiane Dao Palace is divided into five levels: special Jinzi teaching, Jinzi teaching, Yinqing teaching, Zhengjiao, and auxiliary teaching. Generally speaking, the three-grade Youyi Taoist corresponds to the special Jinzi teaching, the fourth-grade wine Taoist corresponds to the Jinzi teaching, the fifth-grade Taoist corresponds to the Yinqing teaching, the six-grade Taoist corresponds to the orthodox teaching, and the seventh-grade Taoist corresponds to the auxiliary teaching.

In the past, when Qi Xuansu was in the lower palace, the one who was responsible for their daily life and various chores was the auxiliary teacher, who was responsible for teaching the orthodox practice, and the Yinqing teacher generally did not teach, and was mainly responsible for handling various palace affairs.

After arriving at the upper palace, it became the Jin Zi Instructor who was responsible for all kinds of chores, but they did not do everything themselves like the auxiliary Tutor, and there were also a number of low-grade instructors under them.

The special Jin Zi teaching is mainly responsible for teaching, and the assistants teach occasionally, and they are more concerned with various Taoist affairs.

Zhang Yuxian, as Zhang Yuelu's uncle, is also a high-level in the Dao Palace, and Qi Xuansu's nominal teacher, the two of them are naturally not good at holding up, so they take the initiative to greet each other.

In the end, it is not his own one-third of an acre, this has to be placed in Borneo, and the Sanpin Youyi Taoist can only stand and report to Qi Xuansu. After all, after some purging, who is not in awe of this Chief Qi? He is in charge of wealth and power, and who does not ask of him?

Now it is people under the eaves that they can't help but bow their heads.

No matter what level of position you have, when you come to the Vientiane Dao Palace, you have to follow the rules of the Vientiane Dao Palace. He became a student again, and he had to bow when he saw the teaching

, not allowed to bring a secretary, do everything yourself, no longer be able to stretch out your hands to open your mouth, but also to attend classes on time, take turns to serve as a shift leader, and manage housekeeping.

Not to mention, it's difficult to go from luxury to frugality, Qi Xuansu is a little unaccustomed. At this time, I miss Chen Jianqiu very much, if there is anything, just give an order. However, gains and losses have always gone hand in hand, without Chen Jianqiu, and without the case work, it is much easier.

After greeting each other, Zhang Yuxian led Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu to meet the real people of the palace.

Qi Xuansu looked at the upper palace in the distance, and couldn't help but secretly sigh: "I see how charming the upper palace is, and I expect that the palace and me should be like this." ”
