Pawn Crossing the River

Of course, before leaving, Qi Xuansu had to meet with Zhang Yuelu, not to the extent of staying out of the house three times.

Between husband and wife, or between lovers, the conversation does not need to be so formal, even Xiao Yin is present.

Xiao Yin also brought the big tiger over this time. Of course Yu Jing’s home was big enough, but due to the strict control over the number of Taoist citizens, there was a shortage of manpower and no one fed the tiger. On the contrary, the Taoist government had enough manpower, so Xiao Yin simply brought him over. , she rubbed against Qi Xuansu's flying boat, which was big enough to hold a tiger.

Strictly speaking, the ordinary Taoist priests in the Taoist government do not serve high-quality Taoist priests, but the Taoist sect, but in reality, that is another matter. Sometimes one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer. Some people want to make progress too much. They rush to fawn over and serve high-quality Taoist priests, and it is trivial to change the ancestors' graves, let alone feed a pet.

While Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu were talking, Xiao Yin was riding on the back of the big tiger and stroking its fur. The big tiger was lying beside him, as cute as a kitten.

Qi Xuansu talked about his work as a matchmaker. He had been preparing for it for so long and was finally done. He was still a little proud: "Qingxiao, let's get closer and closer in the future."

Zhang Yuelu didn't know what to say. Only Qi Xuansu could do this kind of thing, and could do it successfully. If it were her, given this condition, it would be difficult for her to be as smooth as Qi Xuansu.

Qi Xuansu suddenly lowered his voice and said softly: "I will go to Huqian County this time to help Jiang Dazhen and Wu Niang end the conflict in the Dazun area, repel the Buddhist sect, and then return to Yujing to facilitate the reconciliation between your master and my master. Good thing,

Finally, it is the fifteenth day of the first lunar month to officially run for the Grand Master, and success or failure depends on this. "

Even Zhang Yuelu had mixed feelings: "This will be a turning point for the Taoist sect. It may be a great turn of events, or it may be a sudden turn of events. We must be fully prepared."

"This is natural." Qi Xuansu stood up and paced back and forth in the room, "We must prevent Taipingdao from liquidating after we lose the election, and we must also prevent Taipingdao from jumping over the wall after we win."

Zhang Yuelu said: "Taiping Dao has a natural advantage in this regard. Beichen Hall and Kunlun Taoist House are both their people. Fortunately, Master Jiang Dazhen is on our side. If Master Jiang Dazhen is also on the side of Taiping Dao, this Yu Beijing is in Taipingdao’s pocket.”

Xiao Yin buried her face on the big tiger's head and rubbed it hard for a while. After hearing this, she raised her head and asked, "How to be prepared? What are you prepared for? Do you want to fight against Lao Qin and the others?"

Qi Xuansu's face was uncertain, and he said something shocking: "Find an excuse to send troops to the capital. Only by making Taiping Dao fearful can the stability of Yujing be guaranteed."

Zhang Yuelu didn't object, she knew the importance.

It is a good thing to have ideals and follow rules, but in such a matter of life and death, there is no room for luck. When it comes time to fight with swords and guns, who will tell you the rules? Only those who survive are qualified to tell the rules.

Qi Xuansu continued: "The Lingguan Mansion is under the control of Master Cihang, and the 'Thirty-Three Heavens' are under the control of the Heavenly Master. It can be said that the Lingguan is in the hands of Zhengdao. He dare not disobey. Among the twelve first-grade Lingguan At least half of them must go to Beijing to stabilize the overall situation.”

Zhang Yuelu is also a decisive person, adding: "Zi

The palace guards Zixiao Palace, Xuandu guards Zifu, Yujing guards Xuandu, Kunlun Daofu guards Yujing, and the Western Region Daofu guards Kunlun Daofu. Once there is a change in Kunlun Daofu, the Western Regions Daofu must have a "Guardian King Qin" 'Preparation. "

Qi Xuansu raised his hand: "This is the reason why Master put me and Wu Niang in the Western Region Taoist Mansion. It is also one of the reasons why I want to straighten out the personnel issues of the Western Region Taoist Mansion."

Zhang Yuelu said: "But there is another problem. On the day of the general election, you and Wu Niang will go to Yujing to vote and attend the inauguration ceremony of the Grand Master to congratulate the new Grand Master on his enthronement. You cannot stay in the Western Region Dao. On the government side. Master Qingwei also saw this, so he appointed Li Zhuyu as the chief deputy master of the Western Region Taoist Mansion. Beichen Tang was also deeply involved in sorting out the Taoist Mansion's personnel this time. It's hard to say whether they have placed you as a chess piece. When you are in the Taoist mansion, of course you can control it, but once you are not in the Taoist mansion, it will be hard to say. "

Qi Xuansu stopped and said, "This is indeed a problem and we need to take precautions."

Qi Xuansu pondered for a moment and said: "I want to participate in the election of the Grand Master of Jinque, but you don't have to participate. You can stay in the Western Region Taoist Mansion in the name of cleaning up the secret societies. Lao Lin and Xiao Bai are with you. Don't you Can't you suppress Li Zhuyu? Once the situation changes, you will take over Li Zhuyu and take over the Taoist government of the Western Region."

Zhang Yuelu's face was solemn: "That's all we can do."

Xiao Yin was fascinated by what he heard, and his eyes widened. What was he going to do?

Qi Xuansu told Xiao Yin: "Don't reveal even half of what you heard today. This is a head-turning matter."

Xiao Yin hurriedly

He covered his mouth with his hands and nodded.

The reason why I didn't hide it from Xiao Yin was because Xiao Yin would definitely get involved and he would tell her sooner or later. Let her know earlier and be mentally prepared, so there would be no problem.

Zhang Yuelu also talked about the recent results of cleaning up the secret society. Even True Lord Siming had personally taken action, but was blocked by Lin Yuanmiao. Zhang Yuelu was not an easy person, and True Lord Siming could not come in person. In the end, it was Very embarrassed.

Thinking back to those days, Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu were forced into a state of embarrassment by Lord Siming in Jinling Mansion. This can be regarded as a turn of events.

Qi Xuansu said: "I don't care about these ancient immortals and the Buddhist sect now. When the results of the Grand Master's teaching are obtained and the situation in Yujing is stabilized, it will not be too late to deal with them. And you don't want to deal with them too harshly. It's best Leaving a tail behind, you have to use this tail as an excuse to stay in the Western Region Taoist Mansion. This is not to support the bandits, but for the overall interests of the Taoist sect. "

Xiao Yin faced Zhang Yuelu, but secretly pointed at Qi Xuansu beside him with his hand, and said with his mouth: "Singing a high note again."

Zhang Yuelu couldn't help laughing and almost laughed out loud.

Of course Qi Xuansu saw it, but he didn't care: "It's not enough if you don't sing a high-key tone. You just want to win. As the saying goes, talk about feelings and righteousness, and focus on worldly fame and fortune. Don't make worldly fame and fortune like some scourge. Throughout the ages, , Whoever looks away will put it down again. There is nothing wrong with being vulgar. Admit yourself frankly that you are a layman, and don’t pretend to be a saint. "

Zhang Yuelu couldn't help scolding: "Don't teach the children bad things!"

Qi Xuansu said: "Does this guy still need teaching? Split her from the middle. It must be black inside."

Xiao Yin was unconvinced and said: "Who said that? Let's split it open and take a look now."

Before she finished speaking, Xiao Yin had already started to unbutton her clothes and was about to take off her clothes.

The child is very angry and wants to break out with Qi Xuansu again.

Zhang Yuelu hurriedly stopped him: "It's red, it must be red. Back in Borneo, our little Yin was stabbed in the throat by Sun Heyu. It was like a fountain of blood, and the blood that spurted out was all red. ”

Xiao Yin was a little embarrassed and frowned, waving his hands and saying: "Don't talk about the past. Why are you talking about this? A good man doesn't talk about his courage in the past."

Qi Xuansu said: "These are all things for later. The most important issue right now is to end the Darzun conflict in a decent way. After I see you, I will go to Huqian County. Although Taoism and Buddhism are defined as conflicts, this The scope of this conflict is not large and the standards are very high. Just in case, I will take Xiao Yin with me."

Zhang Yuelu asked, "I'll go there too."

Qi Xuansu said: "You have to stay in the Western Region Taoist Mansion. Since you are preparing for a rainy day, you must make all preparations in advance. You cannot sharpen your guns before the battle."

Zhang Yuelu didn't force it: "Okay then."

Qi Xuansu handed his palace master's token to Zhang Yuelu: "With it, you can enter and exit the forbidden areas of the underground city, including the corpse place left by Xu Zu."

Zhang Yuelu took the token: "I understand."

Qi Xuansu took out another token: "This is the Grand Master's token that Wu Niang left for me. She is on the front line and doesn't need this, so I will give it to you as well. With these two tokens, we are not in the Western Region Taoist Mansion." At that time, you can still control the Snow Mountain Palace."

Zhang Yuelu also took Wuniang's token.

Qi Xuan

Su warned: "Of course, these are dead things. The key lies in people. The key to everything is people. Human affairs are politics, and those who win the hearts of the people win the world."

Zhang Yuelu certainly understood what Qi Xuansu meant: "I will not make Nanyang's mistake again."

Qi Xuansu sighed: "The road ahead is always tortuous, full of ups and downs and thorns. We are always moving forward in a spiral. Detours are inevitable, and long roads are also inevitable. Don't be in a hurry. If you are eager for quick success and quick benefits, you will make mistakes, and that is not the way to go. The problem of taking a detour on a long journey may be counterproductive and lead to a backtracking.”

After explaining these things, Qi Xuansu boarded a flying boat to Huqian County the next day. Senior officials from such a large Taoist government came to see him off, which showed Qi Xuansu's absolute authority in the Western Region Taoist government.

What does it mean to be a powerful master? That's it.

Qi Xuansu said goodbye to the deputy palace masters one by one, and gave Li Zhuyu a few special instructions, still about financial issues.

Of course, it was Zhang Yuelu who finally sent Qi Xuansu off. No one could compete with her for this position.

Qi Xuansu wanted to imitate Westerners and give him a hug, but Zhang Yuelu gently pushed him away.

Qi Xuansu didn't force it, and took Xiao Yin to the ramp of the flying boat.

During this process, all the spiritual officials kept their salutes and remained motionless.

The flying boat slowly lifted into the sky, and everyone raised their heads in unison to pay attention. Watching Qi Xuansu's flying boat go away, many people waved slowly.

Zhang Yuelu was the first to look away. After all, as a Taoist monk, she didn't have to pay so much attention. She did it out of sincerity. Even if she didn't come to see him off, what else could Qi Xuansu say?

Of course others can't be so casual

, but Zhang Yuelu's movement seemed to be a signal. After she withdrew her gaze, everyone also withdrew their gaze and looked at Zhang Yuelu.

Zhang Yuelu smiled: "This time we will wipe out the secret societies in the Western Regions, and we will need your strong assistance."

The deputy palace masters are all smart people, and they listen to what is said, and they all responded: "The real master of the palace has given instructions, let us fully assist Chief Zhang. If Chief Zhang has any request, just say it bluntly, we all obey Chief Zhang's orders."
