Chapter 40 The Era of the Last Three Divisions

Qi Xuansu was a little sad for no reason.

Although he is not as old as Zheng Zhenren of Jiang Da, he still agrees deeply.

In the first half of life, there are always more and more friends. In the second half of life, there are always fewer and fewer friends.

The true man Jiang Da left, and for Qi Xuansu, he just made a subtraction.

The further you go, the less separation you live and less separation you live and more separation you die.

However, the serious business still needs to be done. Qi Xuansu calmed down and said, "I wonder what his opinion is on the successor of Dazhenren, the Zhanggong Palace?"

Jiang Dazhenren straight to the point: "Do you have the right person?"

Since Jiang Dazhenren didn't plan to go around the circle, Qi Xuansu simply said bluntly: "There is a candidate. I think the Wanmiao Zhenren from Shuzhou Daofu is more suitable. I wonder what Dazhenren thinks?"

Jiang Dazhenren pondered for a moment and said, "Among the seven generations of disciples, Qi Wanmiao is indeed a relatively suitable candidate. He has high prestige, seniority and ability. I have no objection to let him be the Grand Master of the Palm Palace in Zixiao Palace."

Qi Xuansu said: "The Great Master Mingjian mentioned this matter last time he discussed the matter, but the wife likes Xiaoxiang Zhenren. After all, she is her own brother, which is reasonable, but..."

Jiang Dazhenren glanced at Qi Xuansu and said, "But it's okay."

Qi Xuansu then said: "Of course, I have selfish thoughts. I have many selfish thoughts. Wanmiao Zhenren also has selfish thoughts. No one is truly selfless. But we should not be too shrewd, we should not only think about ourselves and not the Taoist sect. I have no objection to Xiaoxiang Zhenren, but Xiaoxiang Zhenren is better than doing things in some things, and selfish thoughts are more important than official business."

Jiang Dazhen smiled.

He was floating and storming in the Taoist sect for his whole life, and he could not see Qi Xuansu's thoughts.

In fact, Qi Xuansu was too straightforward and explicit. If he had been a heart-wrenching expert, he would have been thorny in others' hearts.

Of course, it is also possible that Qi Xuansu is unwilling to be tactful with his elders and be honest with others, that is another statement.

No matter which possibility it is, in the eyes of Jiang Dazhenren, Qi Xuansu was not slandering it out of thin air. He probably knew what kind of person Su Yuanzai was like on the first day. He probably knew what kind of person he was, and Qi Xuansu was quite pertinent.

Jiang Dazhenren was very concerned: "You have a long way to go in the future, so it is not easy to offend the wife of the Grand Master. I am an old man who is about to ascend. I am not afraid of offending others. I will talk to the Grand Master."

Qi Xuansu stood up and bowed: "Thank you for your love."

Jiang Dazhen waved his hand: "I observe the energy of the Taoist sect. The best is to bring back the opposite, and there is good in the opposite. It is at a turning point. The seventh generation of master sect and the eighth generation of master sect are the key to the turning point. You are a strong competitor for the eighth generation of master sect. Although I can't see the day when the eighth generation of master sect is promoted, if you can really become the eighth generation of master sect, I hope you can inherit your master's ambitions, refresh politics, and lead the Taoist sect out of the predicament."

Qi Xuansu didn't know what to say for a moment, so he could only nod.

Jiang Dazhenren changed the topic: "The first time we met was..."

Qi Xuansu hurriedly said, "Penglai Pond in the Imperial Capital, come from Yujing, Qingxiao and I will go to greet you."

"You remember clearly. At that time, you were a fourth-rank priest and a head of the Imperial Courtyard." Jiang Dazhenren sighed, "In a blink of an eye, so many years have passed, and you are a second-rank Taiyi Taoist priest. You are in charge of the first-level Taoist priest, and you are in charge of the first-level Taoist priest, and you are the one who is in charge of the Taoist priest, and you will also be the other person and go to heaven. You and I bid farewell to each other, and when you meet again, I don't know when it will be."

Qi Xuansu was also filled with emotion for a moment and didn't know what to say.

In the final analysis, Qi Xuansu is still a nostalgic person.

At this moment, Jiang Dazhen's secretary knocked on the door outside.

Jiang Dazhen said, "Come in."

The secretary walked in: "Da Zhenren, the collection of books in the warehouse has been packed."

Jiang Dazhenren said: "Let me get away with me together."

"Yes." The secretary responded and retreated.

Jiang Dazhenren said: "My biggest hobby in the past few years is to collect books. Because I spend most of my time in the Miluo Palace and stay for decades, I have piled them up here. Now I will move them back, which is still a troublesome thing. After all, books are not as different as other things. They need to be classified and cannot be taken away at once, so they will be confused."

Qi Xuansu stood up and said, "If the big real person has something else to do, then I won't disturb you."

Jiang Dazhenren said: "I do have a lot of things here, so I won't keep you. I will say goodbye once before ascending. You and Qingxiao will participate. Remember to bring Xiao Yin here too."

"Yes." Qi Xuansu responded in a deep voice.

Qi Xuansu left the Miluo Palace, walked slowly along the Kunlun Yaochi, and fell into deep thought.

With the seven generations of great masters coming to power, the Taoist sect opened a new era. The ascension of Jiang Dazhen was just the beginning, and the political structure of Yujing would be broken, thus entering the post-three-person parliamentary era.

The so-called three-person parliament is a Westerner, but it is easy to summarize the Taoist pattern under the rule of the Three Divisions, and this era is finally coming to an end.

It is difficult to evaluate this era. Darkness is not a question. There have been many major cases, mostly due to the struggles of the upper class and are not widely involved. Not to mention weakness. During this period, the Taoist sect was still full of martial ethics, and even frequently attacked hard from the outside world, punching the Western Regions and the Eastern Oceans. By the way, they also supported the Xidao sect to fight a war between the north and the south in the new continent, and finally ended with the recovery of the Dazun area. Judging from this result, it can be said that it has great martial arts.

The biggest problem is that during this period, the division within the Taoist sect intensified, and even the main driving force of these foreign wars was also the internal cause of the Taoist sect. Because foreign wars can alleviate internal conflicts, but foreign wars are like walking a tightrope at a crater. It’s okay to win all the time. As long as you lose once, internal conflicts will erupt violently like a volcano, and no one can suppress them.

Another thing is that the finances cannot withstand it. Years of war have caused great burdens on the finances. The Western Regions Daofu is almost collapsed. The Qizhou Daofu has a strong foundation, but it is not bad, but it cannot afford the second Fenglinzhou War. Several other wealthy Daofu want to make up for the loss of Jinque. It is good that ordinary inland Daofu can take good care of himself and not ask for money.

This era has finally ended, and in Qi Xuansu's opinion, this is a good thing.

The sixth generation of disciples left one after another, the seventh generation of disciples officially took over the authority and became the masters of the Taoist sect. The eighth generation of disciples began to take the stage and became the mainstay of the Taoist sect. You can even see the performance of the nineth generation of disciples.

It can be foreseen that the theme of the seven generations of masters is no longer martial arts, but cultural governance, filling financial holes and bridging the cracks inside the Taoist sect, which will lead to a major policy change.

It’s just that the ship is difficult to turn around. If it turns too fast and easily capsizes, it depends on the ability of the helmsman.

In other words, it tests the ability of the master coach.

The seventh generation of great masters is by no means a great master of Taiping, but it means being ordered to be in danger.

Just as he was thinking about this, Qi Xuansu suddenly noticed a small black dot on the lake surface of Kunlun Yaochi. Then he looked at it carefully. It was not someone else, but the ghost girl Xiao Yin, who was literally making trouble.

Without saying a word, Qi Xuansu took out the "Tai Chi Bagua Mirror" and took Xiao Yin over.

When Xiao Yin was released from the "World in the Mirror" by Qi Xuansu, he was still swaying: "Bold! How dare you attack me Xiao Sheng, wow!"

However, after Xiao Yin saw that it was Qi Xuansu, he suddenly stopped moving and said embarrassedly: "Oh, Lao Qi, it's you, who do I think I am?"

Qi Xuansu asked, "What are you doing here?"

Xiao Yin said naturally: "Playing with water, this is called hitting water in the middle."

Qi Xuansu scolded: "Do you think this is home? Play whatever you want? What kind of words do you think."

Xiao Yin curled his mouth and said, "The master of the big master said that I am allowed to play here. If you are not happy, I will talk about it when you become the big master."

Qi Xuansu smiled angrily and said, "You dare to talk back, right? Don't think that if the elders spoil you, you can do whatever you want. I am your first guardian. If the elders say something, I can listen or not. If I want to educate my children, no one can say anything else."

Xiao Yin said unconvincedly: "I just knew it was amazing in front of me. You can go to the head of the master and say this, and go to Qi Niang to say it, see if Qi Niang hits you."

Qi Xuansu said: "No need to be so troublesome, I'll go to Lao Zhang and say."

Xiao Yin opened his mouth, wanted to speak but stopped, and finally said with a smirk: "I think there is no need for this."

"I think it's very necessary." Qi Xuansu said lightly.

Xiao Yin pulled Qi Xuansu's sleeve and lengthened his tone: "Old Qi, there is really no need for this, I'm joking with you."

Qi Xuansu shook her sleeves and deliberately ignored her: "Who is joking with you? Lao Zhang asked you a few days ago how you performed recently. I also said good things for you. It just so happened that Lao Zhang is coming back soon, so I want to talk to her."

Xiao Yin hugged Qi Xuansu's legs with both hands: "Lao Qi, why do we involve Lao Zhang in the matter between us? She is also very hardworking. Wouldn't it be good to let her rest well?"

"Oh, now you understand that you have worked hard at Lao Zhang. What have you done long ago?" Qi Xuansu reached out to pull Xiao Yin down.

Xiao Yin hugged her tightly and did not let go. She hung her whole person on Qi Xuansu's legs and shouted: "Isn't it okay if I was wrong?"

Qi Xuansu said: "You don't know you're wrong, you know you're going to be finished."

Xiao Yin said: "I promise you that I won't dare next time."

"Do you want to have a next time?" Qi Xuansu finally pulled Xiao Yin off his leg.

Xiao Yin used both hands to hold one of Qi Xuansu's hands and shook it hard: "I promise there will be no next time, okay?"

Qi Xuansu pretended to be pondering and said, "Okay, I won't tell Lao Zhang for now, look at your performance and observe the effect."

Xiao Yin finally breathed a sigh of relief.
