Pawn Crossing the River

Faced with this situation, Jin Que must first hold a small meeting instead of a big meeting. This is a small meeting on a big matter. Zhenzhi Zhenzhen or Pingzhang Dazhen who are not in Yujing can participate in the discussion remotely or be absent from the discussion.

Qi Xuansu is not a member of the small discussion, so even if others are in Yujing, they still cannot participate in the discussion and can only wait for the results. Of course, if necessary, if the meeting requires him to attend the meeting, he will be notified in advance. Since he has not been notified, it means that it is not necessary yet.

Qi Xuansu speculated that under the current circumstances, the three parties would definitely reach a consensus on the surface.

The key to a superficial consensus rather than a comprehensive consensus lies in the inconsistency or even conflict of interests among the three interests.

Generally speaking, when there are clearly different opinions on a matter, it is essentially a dispute over lines. But confrontation is not the same thing.

When it comes to issues of major interest, and you have to be correct, you usually express your firm support during the discussion. This is a superficial consensus.

The key lies in subsequent implementation, and there will inevitably be problems such as over-implementation and over-implementation.

For example, an airborne real person in charge of the government wants to investigate the personnel issues of the Taoist government.

The chief and second-in-command will definitely not join forces to veto the real person in charge in the discussion, or directly oppose the real person in charge. This kind of behavior is undoubtedly an open confrontation with Jin Que and is suicidal.

They will only resolutely express their support for the decision of the real person in charge during the discussion.

When executing, first arrest a group of people who are not from the faction to prove that you have implemented the Taoist government's decision. The people of this faction enter a state of hibernation, stop all illegal activities, clean up the mess, and can cut off their tails to survive if necessary.

Of course, you can't just take a beating without fighting back. People have weaknesses. You can't target the real person in charge, but you can target the close confidants of the real person in charge. Once you grasp the handle, you will immediately occupy the moral high ground and focus on the discussion. If the real person in charge is If you choose to protect your subordinates, you can report it to Jinque, make the matter bigger, and make the real person in charge passive.

The counterattack must be a combination of punches. It is not enough to just target the close confidants of the real person in charge, but also to use the topic.

He expressed his position in discussions at all levels that personnel issues will be strictly investigated according to the instructions of the real person in charge, and will be investigated to the end without any cap. In fact, it is over-implementation and expanding the scope of attack. It is intended to scare away businessmen from all walks of life, attack the Taoist government's economy, create a situation in which the Taoist government's development momentum has been seriously frustrated after the real person in charge of the government airborne, and create a public opinion, thus throwing all the blame to the government. The real person in charge.

As the leader of the Taoist government, the real person in charge must bear the responsibility, which will greatly affect the reputation of the real person in charge and be restricted in everything.

Zhang Yuelu encountered a similar dilemma in Borneo.

The same is true for the Jinque discussion. No one will raise objections during the discussion. They will definitely fight back and take revenge. All secret contests will be after the discussion.

While waiting for the outcome of the discussion, Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu were also discussing the matter.

"Tian Yuan, who do you think is the most suspicious?" Zhang Yuelu asked.

Qi Xuansu replied directly: "Of course, Buddhism is the most suspect. In terms of ability, only Buddhism can do it. After all, the Holy Court is beyond its reach, and the Holy Court's main energy is to resolve the conflicts between the three countries of Rune, Netherlands, and Ibia. disputes, and Buddhism is close at hand and has penetrated deeply into the Western Region. Your Tiangang Hall has also said that Buddhism has been undergoing frequent changes and has evil intentions. In terms of motivation, only Buddhism is the most suitable. "

Zhang Yuelu raised an objection: "I also think that Buddhism has this ability, but the motivation is a little unreasonable. The election is coming soon, what we want is the word 'stability', and what Buddhism wants is the word 'chaos'. As a result, they attacked and killed a man. Knowing the real person, the Taoist sect must temporarily abandon its prejudices and fight back. Instead of causing chaos, it will reach a consensus under the influence of external forces. Isn't it self-defeating? "

Qi Xuansu held out two fingers: "If Buddhism blatantly assassinates Zhenren Chen, it will be self-defeating if it is the former Taoism. But Buddhism is not a blatant assassination. There is no conclusion on this matter. We only speculate that it is related to Buddhism. Of course, it has nothing to do with no evidence. Importantly, this is not a legal issue, but a serious political issue. As long as we identify who did it, that is enough and there is no need to prove anything.”

"The key is that Taoism is no longer the Taoism it used to be. The disputes between the three factions have intensified, and the two camps are highly antagonistic. However, Buddhism is precisely ambushing this time. The 'Sea of ​​Death' is as big as two Qizhous, but Buddhism can directly identify Zhenren Chen." What does it mean to successfully ambush someone according to their travel time and route? It means that there is an insider, and a very high-level insider.”

"Who is the mole? Could it be someone from Taiping Dao? Under normal circumstances, how do we identify the mastermind? Whoever benefits the most and benefits the most is the mastermind. This time Zhenren Chen is dead, whose The biggest benefit? Taiping Dao. Because the Western Region is the place where Master made his achievements. If the Western Region is in chaos, it will definitely affect Master's election. As a competitor, Taiping Dao is the biggest beneficiary. suspects."

"If they are people from the Taiping Dao, it means that they have begun to break the rules and betray the interests of the Taoist sect. From ancient times to the present, traitors are more hateful than enemies. In the words of the Holy Court, heretics deserve to be punished more than heretics. It is not just me. I think other real people from Zhengyi Dao and Quanzhen Dao would think the same way. In this way, an external event has become an internal event of the Taoism. Do you think the two Dao Daoists put all the blame on the Buddhist sect? To the end of Taiping Road?”

"Even if it has nothing to do with Taiping Dao, Taiping Dao was wronged, and it's hard to tell now. As the disputes among the three factions intensify, the two camps become more and more distinct, and the Taoist sect's greatest consensus has been shrinking. As the biggest beneficiary, it is also the enemy. How can we tell clearly? As I said before, this is a political issue. It is a childish behavior to talk about evidence. As long as it is determined who did it, it will be enough for some people. It seems that this is a rare opportunity, even if it is not done by Taiping Dao, it must be done by Taiping Dao. "

"So I predict that the next focus of the Taoist sect will not be to launch a war against Buddhism to avenge Chen Zhenren, but to catch the inner ghost. It is best to find tangible evidence that Taiping Dao is related to this matter. As long as the death of Taiping Dao and Chen Zhenren is proven Relatedly, Taiping Dao betrayed the Taoist sect’s interests, which would cause a fatal blow to Qingwei Zhenren’s election, and the position of the seventh-generation master would be stable.”

"When the election of the Grand Master is settled, then we can free up our hands to target Buddhism, whether it is punishment, revenge, or even a full-scale war. We can slowly pursue it. Only this position of the Grand Master cannot be slow, and If you can’t wait, take action when it’s time to take action.”

"The Taiping Dao must also have seen this. In order to prove their innocence or to muddy the waters, they will definitely advocate raising troops to go to war and retaliate against Buddhism. So you will see a strange picture. Quanzhen Dao is not Anxious for revenge, demanding stability, the overall situation, and determination. On the contrary, Taiping Dao will be more anxious to take revenge, and will fight an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. It seems that Chen Zhenren is a person of Taiping Dao, but this is the fundamental motive. There is no difference, they are all for the election of the Grand Master, and everything serves the election.”

"At this juncture, the three races have reached the point where they are incompatible with each other. The face of the Taoist sect is all illusory, and the ownership of the position of the great leader is real. This is the so-called sharing the pot, and the face of the Taoist sect is everyone's face. , we must be embarrassed together, but the Grand Master is not everyone’s Grand Master, it can only be enjoyed by one family.”

"So although Buddhism took a risky move this time, it was done with certainty."

After Zhang Yuelu finished listening, he was silent for a long time and said slowly: "Listening to your words is worth ten years of reading."

There is no irony in this sentence, but sincerity.

Zhang Yuelu then said: "Tian Yuan, I finally understand why Master Donghua likes you so much. You can see so clearly. It's not an exaggeration to say that you can see fire like a fire."

Qi Xuansu waved his hand: "We husband and wife should not flatter each other."

Zhang Yuelu smiled and said: "I never engage in flattery. This time I admire you from the bottom of my heart. In this regard, not only me, I am afraid that the three talents of the Taoist sect are not as good as you."

Qi Xuansu stood up and walked slowly: "The Buddhist people have sinister intentions. They seem to be using conspiracy, but in fact they are using conspiracy. They are not afraid of the Taoist people seeing it, because even if the Taoist people see it, driven by their own interests, I will still do this. In the final analysis, there is still something wrong with Dao Sect itself, so I have to repeatedly emphasize the strengthening of moral construction. With the strength of Dao Sect, as long as there is no problem with Dao Sect itself, no one can do anything to us. "

Zhang Yuelu sighed: "The evil consequences of these years have finally made the Taoist sect reap the consequences."

Qi Xuansu stopped and said, "What I'm most worried about now are some people within Quanzhen Tao."

Zhang Yuelu asked: "How do you say this?"

Qi Xuansu looked around and said softly: "If the inner ghost comes from Quanzhen Dao instead of Taiping Dao, and Taiping Dao is really unjust, and because of this incident, Qingwei Zhenren lost the election and lost the position of Grand Master, then what do you think? Will Taiping Dao be willing to do so? When the time comes for Taiping Dao to rebel, the Daxuan court will add fuel to the fire, and the Qin and Li families will join forces, and the world will be in chaos. Even if Master succeeds in being elected as the Grand Master, the Taoist sect will be divided. "

"Back then, Xuan Sheng trusted Taiping Dao the most, so Beichen Hall was still responsible for protecting Yujing. If Taiping Dao launched a palace coup and things happened easily, although Master was stronger than the Sixth Generation Grand Master, he would not be as good as the Fifth Generation after all. The Grand Master is new to the throne and his foundation is not stable. Even if Master suppresses him, civil war in the Taoist sect is inevitable. "

Zhang Yuelu's expression changed after hearing this: "We must not sit idly by and do nothing, we must do something."

Qi Xuansu put his hands behind his back and continued to pace: "So I think that if Taiping Dao is really unjust, then it must not be used as an excuse. Today is no better than in the past. Taiping Dao's senior officials are holding back the idea of ​​overturning the table, but the internal opinions are not unified. If it is given If they tell the truth, it will be difficult to recover. The top priority is to stabilize the situation in the Western Region, find the culprit, and clarify the truth. "
