Chapter 15 The beginning of the ceremony

A red sun leaps out of the sea of ​​clouds, reflecting half of the sky.

The weather in Yujing is controllable, and there will be any weather you want.

Today is the day when the great master is promoted to the position. It only takes once every decade. Naturally, there is no wind or rain. The sky is clear and the golden light is rays.

With a clear sound, nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine white cranes circled up in groups, rising with the sun, and then wandered around Yujing, and the cranes kept ringing.

These white cranes are carefully cultivated by the Taoist sect. They are not only afraid of the cold weather on Yuxu Peak, but also are not afraid of the bitter wind. They can fly freely on the top of Kunlun and are specially used for various festivals.

Almost the entire Taoist sect’s white crane is here. It took Zixiao Palace a little half a month to complete the arrangement.

After entering the first month of the year, Zixiao Palace began various preliminary preparations, and we couldn't wait until the election was over before we started preparing.

When the election is over, the main things are matters beyond the established process and that need to be determined by the head of the great master himself, such as the arrangements of guests, etc.

Seven rainbow bridges are in the sky, from big to small.

The largest rainbow bridge spans most of Kunlun, then a rainbow bridge spans Yuxu Peak, then a rainbow bridge in Yujing, a rainbow bridge in Xuandu, a rainbow bridge in Zifu, a rainbow bridge in Da Zixiao Palace, and a rainbow bridge in Xiao Zixiao Palace.

There were seven roads in total. In order to span the huge rainbow bridge across Kunlun, the Daomen used two alchemist camps this time, one in the east Kunlun and the other in the west Kunlun to cast spells together, which created such a wonder.

The towering Kunlun is covered with snow all year round. Only the four seasons in the Yujing city are like spring, as if the residence of the Qing emperor is, because there is a large formation covering the Yujing, which is endless all year round, and the amount of money spent is spent. In many cases, financial resources are equal to strength, and strength is equal to status. There is no doubt that this is the Taoist sect showing the world the status of the common ruler of the world.

The ceremonial ceremonies' promotion ceremony is the face of Taoism, and there is no vagueness.

In this glorious atmosphere of immortals, of course there are also some disharmonious voices.

"Su Cihang is really lucky. In a blink of an eye, he became the wife of the chief priest and completely confirmed his identity as the first female Taoist priest. Donghua is the master, Qingwei is the master, but she is the master."

"It's time to change your words. It's not Donghua's real person, but you have to be called the Grand Master."

"Yes, the master."

"Sarcastic, be careful to let the master hear it, and send you to the New World."

"The master of the great master is magnanimous and probably won't do this, but it's like something the master of the great master can do."

Several female Taoist priests were chatting, and each had a good identity.

Yunqing Bottle, Li Ruoshui, Ye Qingshuang, Shi Bingyun.

Except for Ye Qingshuang, the other three have some opinions about Cihang. Although there is no hatred, women always dislike each other, and Shi Bingyun, the junior sister, is no exception. Women like Zhang Yuelu are a minority after all. Even Zhang Yuelu cannot be completely exempted from the common people, so she has some opinions about Qi Niang.

As for why Ye Qingshuang had no objection to Cihang's real person, he had little contact, and was not from aristocratic families, and was not from the same family as these women.

Men are children of aristocratic families, and women are of course women of aristocratic families.

Ye Qingshuang, a Jurchen who climbed up from the bottom, is a minority. Because of this, she ranks last among the many real people in the prefectures.

Yun Qingping looked at Ye Qingshuang: "Zhengren Ye, what are you thinking?"

Ye Qingshuang came back to her senses: "I suddenly remembered what happened before. Several real people were from famous families and probably had never experienced it."

Li Ruoshui said: "That's more important."

Ye Qingshuang said slowly: "The Taoist Scripture is nothing to all real people, it is almost born. But in that small place in our hometown, it is a hard-core crop. Many beautiful girls are willing to marry some crooked melons and jujubes just for a Taoist Scripture. Men who want Taoist Scripture should of course not expect marriage, but can only become Taoist Scriptures.

"If you want to be a Taoist priest, you will be a Taoist boy first. If a young man becomes a Taoist boy, then the girls with good conditions will start looking for it and make a marriage agreement first.

"A few years later, if the young man fails to become a Taoist priest, and passes the age of a Taoist boy, and can only become a Taoist citizen, then the girl will ruin the engagement - after all, the girl wants Taoist priest. Now that you don't have Taoist priest, why should the girl be with you?

“So many women regretted the marriage.

"But if the young man becomes a Taoist priest, it will be another situation - the young man meets the world and wants to become a Taoist partner with a female Taoist priest, but the man regrets his marriage.

"At this time, the woman's parents and the woman are about to start to have a fight. Some are moral issues and style issues.

"In summary: the young man failed to become a regular man, which is because the man is incompetent, so it is naturally not suitable. If the young man becomes a regular man, the man regrets his marriage, which means he is unfaithful.

"If it's a girl, she will be much more tolerant. The girl has not become a regular person, and she supports each other, and everything will be the same. When the girl becomes a regular person, the man is still incompetent and cannot be worthy of the other girl.

"So men later learned to be smart and then considered getting married when they have the ability. If they don't have the ability, they will not consider it for the rest of their lives and cannot take advantage of it.

Yun Qingping understood and pointed at Ye Qingshuang: "Okay, Zhenren Ye, this is what the great master is. If the great master made an engagement early, how could he marry Zhenren Cihang after he became famous? He could only guard his wife."

Ye Qingshuang waved her hands repeatedly: "I dare not say that, you insisted on me."

Li Ruoshui said: "What's the matter? The master sect is not a stingy person. Will he still be disrespectful to us female Taoist priests? Our Taoist sect is about equality."

Shi Bingyun smiled and said, "The great master can't hold his face down, but with the great master's wife, it's not legitimate to deal with the first female Taoist priest? None of them can escape."

Yun Qingping sighed half-true and half-falsely: "We are afraid there will be no day to turn over."

The ceremony of promotion is about to begin, and the guests gather together in groups of three or three.

It is only female Taoist priests who dare to joke like this. Due to the Taoist style, female Taoist priests are somewhat arrogant because of their favor. The male Taoist priests are very serious and will never say a word if they shouldn't say anything.

As the female Taoist priests said, perhaps the Grand Master Church will give the female Taoist priest three points of face, and at most it will be handed over to the Grand Master's wife for treatment, but the male Taoist priest may not be allowed.

Qi Xuansu calmed down and appeared in Zixiao Palace. Unfortunately, Zhang Yuelu was not there, only Xiao Yin followed him. According to Western learning, the wife is of course the first female companion, but when the wife is not there, the daughter can also be replaced.

Wherever Qi Xuansu goes, stars hold the moon.

Everyone seemed to have discussed it in advance, and they all changed their words, not called Qi Zhenren, not Taiwei Zhenren, but also called Xiaozhushu. Not only those who have a status that is not as good as Qi Xuansu, but also those who are similar to Qi Xuansu, and even those with higher status than Qi Xuansu, are also called this.

Qi Xuansu refused at first, but later, seeing that he was unable to refuse his affection, he let it go.

To be honest, the three words "little master" are quite pleasant. They are small now, but they will be bigger in the future.

If the emperor ascended the throne, he would have to salute the empress dowager. In essence, it would be the whole family, so filial piety is related to national affairs.

However, the Taoist master is not an emperor, nor a family in the world, so the promotion of the master has nothing to do with the parents and children of the master. Perhaps someone wants to talk about Qi Xuansu, the key is that Qi Xuansu himself is a strong competitor of the eight generations of masters, and it can even be said to be a leader, so the title of "little master" has become worthy of his reputation.

If it is just a disciple relationship, then it is far from being a disciple of Qi Jianyuan or a disciple of Donghua.

As for why Taoist couples are exceptions, one is that Xuan Sheng sets this precedent, and Madam Xuan Sheng is indeed in power, replacing Xuan Sheng to take charge of Taoist sect, which has a profound influence and left a brilliant mark in the history of Taoist sect. This has become a convention, essentially a historical legacy problem, and people in Taoist sect have no motivation to change it.

Second, it is a very realistic problem. Family is the important cornerstone for maintaining stability and is the most basic unit. Without the constraints of the family, many lawless people will be born, which is very terrible. Qi Xuansu is an example. When he was alone, he liked to take risks and could do anything. Later, when he got married, he became more worried and even became sentimental.

There are indeed many people who are not married among the top leaders of the Taoist sect, such as the Donghua real person in the past, but they also have one common feature, that is, they come from a noble family, it doesn’t matter if they don’t have a family, and there is a big family behind them, which is a larger unit than the family, and they have to consider the interests of the family. For example, Tianshi, he has no biological descendants, but Zhang Yuelu and others are his grandchildren, which is also a bond.

Because of this, the great master and the great master's wife are essentially setting an example for the Taoist sect, hoping to get married, promoting family, and encouraging family.

Therefore, the Taoist couple of the great master sect is a plus.

From this point of view, Qi Xuansu has the advantage. Perhaps Zhang Yuelu, as the leader of the great leader, will have many resistances, but as the wife of the leader, these resistances will no longer exist, but will instead form a powerful support to Qi Xuansu.

Qi Xuansu walked along the way, like dividing waves and breaking waves.

When the four female Taoist priests saw Qi Xuansu coming, they extinguished their voice: "The little master is here."

After Qi Xuansu approached, he saluted the four Jurchens.

Shi Bingyun joked: "We are afraid we can't bear the rituals of the little master."

Qi Xuansu said: "Where is this?"

Then Qi Xuansu asked Xiao Yin to salute the four grandparents.

Xiao Yin opened his mouth and said, "Lao Yun, Lao Ye, Lao Li, Lao Shi, hello, I am Xiao Yin."

In this tone, Qi Xuansu should have given the little master to Xiao Yin.

It was another day when Qi Xuansu was roasted on the fire.

Women hold grudges, and Jurchens also hold grudges.

Just when Qi Xuansu was extremely embarrassed, a commotion in the distance attracted everyone's attention, including the four Jurchens.

This helped Qi Xuansu to rescue him.
