Pawn Crossing the River

In fact, Xiao Yin has never been to the Imperial Capital. She learned it from Gong Jiaojun.

Qi Xuansu has been on a meteoric rise all the way, and Xiao Yin has followed the rising tide, so many people are willing to form a good relationship with Xiao Yin. Qi Xuansu often takes Xiao Yin to meet the real person Donghua. Gong Jiaojun and Xiao Yin somehow became familiar with each other. Gong Jiaojun He was from the Imperial Capital, so Xiao Yin learned some of the Imperial Capital accent from him.

But those words were not taught by Gong Jiaojun. The most important thing for a secretary is to be careful in words and deeds. Gong Jiaojun would not dare to say such stupid things.

Xiao Yin was not stupid. He probably realized that this old man was not simple, so he asked: "Old man, what is your surname? What is your name? You can live in the Taiping Palace. I am afraid you are not an ordinary person. You can't even think of deceiving this little sage." "

The old man smiled and said: "Why, you want to know my name so that you can retaliate in the future? I won't tell you."

Xiao Yin said: "If you don't say it, don't say it. Then I'll leave."

The old man grabbed Xiao Yin and said, "No, I can't leave without paying compensation!"

Xiao Yin turned around and bared his teeth to threaten: "I'm warning you, if you don't let go, I will bite you."

On the other side, neither Qi Xuansu nor Mr. Pei could convince anyone.

This is also reasonable. They are all adults, and their ideas have long been finalized. If there are no major changes, they will not change with a few words.

As for Yao Pei's matter and Qi Xuansu's prejudice, Mr. Pei didn't mention it at all. After all, he was a Taoist priest of the older generation. He still had some power and magnanimity, and was much better than Tantai Qiong.

Qi Xuansu had to compromise and take a step back: "Let's do this, old man, we don't discuss who is right and who is wrong, we face reality and solve the problem."

Mr. Pei asked: "What reality are we facing? What problems are we solving?"

Qi Xuansu said: "The actual situation now is that Master and Master Cihang have publicly announced that they have formed a Taoist couple and invited a group of relatives and friends to attend the ceremony. Can't they cancel it temporarily? The problem to be solved is that as a son, Master can be a Taoist couple before his father. There is no shame in front of me, but Master Donghua, as the chief counselor, candidate for Grand Master, and even the future Grand Master, must not be shameless, not to mention Master Cihang is involved. The two Masters represent most of the Taoist sect. , You can’t let Daomen’s face fall to the ground, right? So I hope the old man can put the overall situation first.”

"The overall situation is the overall situation." Mr. Pei said sarcastically, "Over the years, the word 'overall situation' is what I hear the most."

Qi Xuansu did not deny it: "This is also something that cannot be done."

Mr. Pei looked at Pei Shenfu: "You saw it, right? It's no wonder Xuanji likes him. If it were Su Yi, could she say such a thing?"

Pei Shenfu said: "Su Yi has practiced the 'Tai Shang Wang Qing Sutra'. If Yao Qi hadn't turned his elbow outward..."

Mr. Pei interrupted: "Okay, so why not you? Are you doing it for the Pei family or for something else? You know best."

"Dad!" Pei Shenfu raised his voice, feeling a little aggrieved.

Mr. Pei felt a little lonely and sighed: "My children and grandchildren will have their own blessings, and I can't care too much..."

Qi Xuansu was very surprised when he heard this - the old man is not confused.

However, Qi Xuansu was a little curious, how could Mr. Pei, such an indifferent person, teach Donghua Zhenren and Pei Shenfu? On the contrary, Pei Xiaolou is more like him.

Qi Xuansu had a guess, maybe Donghua Zhenren was more like his master, Mr. Pei's senior brother, while Pei Shenfu was more like his mother, and only Pei Xiaolou was like his father.

Mr. Pei finally decided to give in: "You are talking about love and reason. So, I will go with you to Yujing to attend the ceremony of the two real people. As for what you are planning after the ceremony, I Will not participate.”

Pei Shenfu still wanted to say something, but Qi Xuansu said one step ahead: "Not long ago, the Heavenly Master and the Earth Master came to Qizhou in person. This is an attitude. Oppose the Heavenly Master and the Earth Master, oppose the Master Cihang and Donghua Zhenren is a person who is self-defeating the Zhengdao and the Quanzhen Tao. Do you want to be a Taiping Taoist? "

Pei Shenfu just swallowed the words that came to his lips.

She also knew that this was the inevitable trend. If the Earth Master did not support her, there was nothing she could do.

Mr. Pei said: "Please wait a moment, I will go and prepare."

Qi Xuansu said that the old man was preparing slowly and that he was not in a hurry and took advantage of this time to find Xiao Yin.

The naughty kid didn't stop for a moment, and just after saying a few words, he disappeared.

Qi Xuansu directly scanned the Taiqing Palace with his spiritual thoughts and found that Xiao Yin was not here. He also used the "Immortal Qi Watching Technique" and followed the breath left by Xiao Yin to find the Taiping Palace.

Then Qi Xuansu saw Xiao Yin and the old man pulling.

When the old man saw Qi Xuansu coming over, he immediately said, "Is this your child? He hit someone after hitting him. It's so bullying!"

Xiao Yin defended loudly: "I didn't hit anyone, it was this old man who blackmailed her. He asked for 50,000 yuan in compensation! Later, the price was raised to 80,000 yuan. Is this ridiculous?"

Qi Xuansu was not an upright gentleman, so he immediately turned serious: "Blackmail?"

Faced with the two sets of rhetoric, Qi Xuansu chose to believe Xiao Yin without hesitation.

The old man was not afraid at all and pointed at Xiao Yin and said: "This little girl said her name is Li Changyin, her master is Qingwei Zhenren, her eldest brother is Li Changge, and her sister-in-law is Qin Henghua. Is this true?"

Qi Xuansu glanced at the old man and intuitively told him that this old guy was not simple. In this case, it is natural not to admit it, as this will make others laugh. Qi Xuansu has been in the Taoist sect for so many years, how could he reveal such a handle to others? If it gets spread, I don’t know how many articles will be made.

Xiao Yin was also a ghost, and immediately said: "It's not true, I just made a joke."

Qi Xuansu took advantage of the situation and said: "Old fellow Taoist, don't be as knowledgeable as a child. Children's words are unbridled."

Xiao Yin's face was full of innocence: "I'm teasing you."

The father and daughter sang together, making the old man dumbfounded: "I have learned that like father, like daughter. No wonder the Li family lost so miserably."

Qi Xuansu asked: "I haven't asked for advice yet. What is your surname, my old Taoist friend?"

The old man took out a folding fan from nowhere. Regardless of the cold weather, he unfolded the fan and waved it twice: "My surname is Qin."

Qi Xuansu said "Oh": "A member of the clan."

Fortunately, I didn't help Xiao Yin make amends just now. If he really wanted to make amends, it would be embarrassing if he bumped into the real owner. Qi Xuansu had a hunch just now that this was the Taiping Palace, and maybe the old man's surname was Li. He really guessed that although his surname was not Li, his surname was Qin.

Qi Xuansu asked again: "Dare you ask me your name?"

The old man no longer hid it: "I'm Qin Zhuoshu."

Qi Xuansu was surprised.

Royal lineage: Guo Yixun is outstanding, balanced and self-possessed.

Emperor Jiushi, King Qin Quanxiao of Liao, and King Qin Quanyi of Jin are both of the "quan" generation, which is roughly equivalent to the seventh generation disciples of the Taoist sect, and the "zhuo" generation corresponds to the sixth generation disciples, and is also the highest existing seniority in the royal family.

Qi Xuansu immediately thought of someone: "King Qi."

At that time, Emperor Gaozu made many meritorious officials. The first meritorious official, Qin Xiang, was named the King of Jiangling County. Gaozu's two brothers were named King of Liao and King of Qi respectively. They were also the only hereditary replacements. Even if they failed the assessment, they would only be replaced by other children. Inherit the royal title instead of lowering the title.

Later, the King of Liao line was renamed today's King of Jin. The title of King of Liao was returned to the royal family and became the head of the kings. The line of King of Qi remained unchanged.

In today's Zongren Mansion, the King of Liao serves as the Zongren Ling, the King of Jin serves as Zuo Zongzheng, the King of Qi serves as You Zongzheng, and two county princes serve as left and right clan officials, responsible for clan assessment, rewards and punishments.

The King of Qi has the highest seniority and is the oldest, but he has lived in seclusion these years and rarely shows up. Most of the time, several princes from the same clan come forward to serve as directors, and Prince Langya is one of them.

The Beijing camp is divided into two parts. The Shenji camp is no longer responsible for the defense of the imperial capital, leaving only the Shenshu camp. According to the usual practice, a noble or clan member serves as the admiral, military and political officer of the Beijing camp, and a civil servant serves as the associate commander. The chief military officer of the Beijing camp. However, the emperor broke this convention. Now the Liao King Qin Quanxiao serves as the admiral and the military commander-in-chief of the Beijing camp. The person who serves as the assistant commander-in-chief of the military and political affairs in the Beijing camp is not a civil servant but Qin Quanlin, the king of Langya County.

When Qi Xuansu was in charge of the imperial capital, he had a conflict with the small prince Qin Hengde because of the affairs of Qiuhuayuan. The relationship between Qin Hengde and the King of Qi was probably similar to the relationship between Zhang Yuelu and the Tianshi. They were not biological grandsons, but they could still be called grandpas.

In the end, it was Donghua Zhenren who came forward to settle the matter, preventing Qi Xuansu from provoking King Liao and King Qi at the same time.

Later, Master Donghua also mentioned that he had some friendship with King Qi.

Although the fiefdom of King Qi is in Qizhou, Prince Daxuan holds the fiefdom from afar and is not a real vassal king. Therefore, King Qi does not have much interaction with Taiping Road just because of the nominal fiefdom. Generally speaking, King Qi Still stick to neutrality.

The old man nodded and said, "I do have the title of King Qi."

Xiao Yin also realized that this was the uncle who had watched the emperor for a long time and was also the great uncle of Qin Henghua. He was really kicked on the iron plate.

A smile appeared on Qi Xuansu's face: "My master has long said that he has a good relationship with His Royal Highness King Qi. When I was in charge of the Imperial Palace, I met the King of Jin and the King of Liao, but I have never been able to meet the King of Qi. Deeply regret it.”

Then Qi Xuansu straightened his expression and put on the airs of a strict father: "Xiao Yin, you still haven't apologized to His Highness King Qi!"

At the same time, Qi Xuansu did not forget to wink at Xiao Yin.

Act according to my look.

Xiao Yin made a reassuring gesture to Qi Xuansu and cooperated tacitly: "It's my fault. Your Highness, Prince Qi, please don't be like me."

King Qi laughed: "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. I was just teasing you."

Qi Xuansu asked tentatively: "Why is King Qi on Jin'ao Peak?"

"Of course it is for retirement." King Qi said matter-of-factly, "This place is much better than the Imperial Capital. Lao Pei lives in Taiqing Palace and I live in Taiping Palace. We are still neighbors."

Qi Xuansu said: "That's it."

King Qi looked Qi Xuansu up and down: "I have heard of Master Taiwei for a long time when he was still in charge. At that time, Master Donghua had great expectations for you. Now it seems that Master Donghua still has the ability to know people. You It also lived up to Master Donghua’s expectations, good, very good.”
