Chapter 282: Four Voices in the Bamboo Forest

This sword sect reform that was destined to cause an uproar has slowly kicked off with Xu Beiyou's appointment of the three elders of the Sword Sect.

When the news spreads, the whole Jiang will inevitably be shaken. The three newly baked Sword Sect elders, taking out any of them was enough to make Jiang Du talk about it for a long time, but once the three of them took the throne together, it was like a big stone falling on the head, which made people confused.

When Xu Beiyou left the main seat and walked to the back hall, nearly a hundred people from the Sword Sect got up to see each other, and when Xu Beiyou left the main hall, most of the old people of the Sword Sect flocked to Zhang Xueyao's side, wanting to find out some inside details about the reorganization of the Sword Sect from the mouth of this "old master". The people who originally belonged to the Wenxiang Sect were surrounded by Qin Mumian, forming their own faction, which was clearly distinguishable from the people in the Sword Sect around them. In fact, many old people of the Wenxiang Sect did not agree with the sect leader's practice of joining the Sword Sect, but Qin Mumian had always been used to being arbitrary, and she was the first sect leader of the Wenxiang Sect, and there were no ancestral rules on her head, so no one dared to oppose what she decided, but no one dared to jump out and say anything more at this time.

As for the young people who belong to Xu Beiyou's lineage, they are standing with Bingchen, they have already gotten the news in advance, in their opinion, since Bingchen was personally invited by the sect master to the Sword Sect, they are naturally the people who belong to the sect master, and this time as the head of the three elders is even more proof.

However, the three female elders did not stay here for long, but after explaining their own explanations, they also went to the back hall. Everyone knew that the three elders were going to meet the sect master to discuss the next matter of reorganizing the Sword Sect, and they didn't dare to rashly follow them to the back hall, so they could only disperse separately.

The entire newly built Sword Qi Lingkong Hall occupies a large area, which was originally rebuilt from the Zirong Temple of Jiangnan Daomen in the Taoist Workshop, and on the basis of the Zirong Temple, several Taoist temples were merged, and the entire backyard was enough to accommodate nearly a thousand people, but there were not so many people in the Sword Qi Lingkong Hall today, so that the huge Sword Qi Lingkong Hall was empty and deserted.

In the corner of the backyard of the Sword Qi Hall, there is a small bamboo forest, in which there is a path paved with bluestone, and at the end is a clearing carved out of the bamboo forest, with stone tables and stone benches. At this time, Xu Beiyou was sitting on one of the stone benches, glanced at the other three stone benches that were still empty, stretched out his fingers and gently stroked the cold stone table, and touched the subtle lines on the table with his fingers, thoughtfully.

At this time, he couldn't see the scene in front of him, but he could guess one or two, which had already shown a big problem, his original intention was to eliminate the distinction between the two major factions within the Sword Sect, but after the establishment of the three major elders, but the germination of the three major factions appeared invisibly, and it was unrealistic to completely eliminate the faction, because it was human nature to hold a group, and if you wanted to eliminate the faction to the greatest extent, you need the best cooperation of the three new elders.

Everyone has selfish intentions, although the three of them respect Xu Beiyou, the sect master of the Sword Sect, but the three of them may not be like sisters, after all, the combined age of the three women is nearly three hundred years old, and after the world, even if they used to be close friends in the boudoir, it is debatable how many points can be left now. And throughout the past of the three women, it is by no means smooth sailing, each has its own ups and downs and frustrations, which has created a different perverse temperament for the three of them, and they are all Xu Beiyou's elders, according to human feelings, if they are on the opposite side, it doesn't matter how high or low the seniority is, but if it is their own family, this seniority is a hurdle that cannot be bypassed, especially Zhang Xueyao and Qin Mumian, if they disagree with Xu Beiyou, Xu Beiyou is not good to use too tough means unless they have a last resort.

Seniority and seniority are a kind of invisible and intangible but have a great impact, take Han Xuan as an example, it is precisely because he is a very senior and very old minister, so he returned to the temple after 20 years of retreat, and he can still easily subdue the ministers, this is the irreplaceability of the old ministers, Xiao Xuan wants to depose Lan Yu, can only use Han Xuan, whose seniority and qualifications are almost the same as Lan Yu, and if he is replaced by other courtiers, it will be difficult to convince the public. In the same way, Zhang Wuzhi served as the left governor of the Northwest Army, and Yu Kuang served as the left governor of the Jiangnan Army, all because they had extremely high seniority and were enough to serve the public, and many Hanlin in the Hanlin Academy endured hard life and called it "Yangwang", which is the same reason.

Now that the Sword Sect has changed the dynasty, although Xu Beiyou is no longer the young master, he is not as arbitrary as Shangguan Xianchen back then, and in the face of Zhang Xueyao, these "old ministers" are subject to these qualifications and seniorities, and they can't blindly use strength. As the sect master of the Sword Sect, he must have the capacity to tolerate people, tolerate "yin" and "yang", and then reconcile yin and yang, this is the way of the master, or in a sense, this is the emperor's mental technique.

No one has taught Xu Beiyou this, but as long as he sits in this position, many skills are self-taught.

A few years ago, Xu Beiyou, there was only black and white in his eyes, no one was sophisticated, and he had the dream of a master in his heart, and there was no life in the world.

Later, he understood a truth, you can't just look at the three inches in front of you, you have to look into the distance. How can we see far? Then we have to go to a high place, the so-called climb high and look far, go up the mountain, and naturally broaden our horizons.

So he knew that the world was not black and white, and he also understood what he should do after becoming a human being.

While Xu Beiyou was pondering, footsteps came from the path of the bamboo forest, and Xu Beiyou retracted his thoughts and got up from the stone bench to greet him.

Bingchen, Zhang Xueyao, and Qin Mumian came together, Xu Beiyou gave a salute first, which was regarded as returning the salute that the three of them had done to him before, and then the four of them sat down separately, Xu Beiyou sat calmly on the main seat, and said: "This time, the three of you are invited to come, and it is a matter of discussion." ”

Bingchen has always been not good at socializing, his face is expressionless, and he is silent. Qin Mumian's expression was indifferent, as a "newcomer" of the Sword Sect, he also had no intention of speaking, only Zhang Xueyao was both an old man and half a master, and took the initiative to speak: "There are no outsiders here, Nangui, if you have anything to say, just say it." ”

Xu Beiyou nodded and said: "Then I'll say it bluntly, the matter of party strife has always been a deep disaster, and it can be seen by looking at today's Dao Gate, I don't want the Sword Sect to be the same, this is the fundamental purpose of my reorganization of the Sword Sect." However, reorganizing the Sword Sect is a big deal, and I can't do it alone, so I hope the three elders will help me from the side. ”

Qin Mumian let out a long sigh and said: "I probably understand what Nangui means, you want to eliminate the faction within the Sword Sect, at least don't hinder each other, take the Daomen incident this time, Murong Xuan and Chenye are desperately in front, and the other group of people are desperately pulling their hind legs, undefeated and defeated, even Qiuye is helpless, Nangui is afraid that this kind of thing will happen to us ourselves, right?"
