How Qi Jiaozheng handed over to Jiang Dazhenren is no longer about Qi Xuansu's business.

There is no need to say much about the Nine Halls of the Taoist Sect. In addition to the special circumstances of the current short transition, most of the time is left to the three Dao No. 2 figures and the candidates of the Great Master. The three middle halls: transformation, sacrificial sacrifice, and market ships, which are related to the three lifelines of the Taoist Sect: creation, divine power, and flying boats, and are managed by the three deputy head sects. The following three halls: Tianji, Duzhi, Fengxian, corresponding to industry, finance, and justice. This is a practical thing.

Therefore, from the perspective of the real person in the palm hall, the Huasheng Hall, the temple sacrifice hall, and the Maribod Hall are very important, but the real person in the palm hall of these three halls is not important.

Take the temple sacrificial hall for example. The two masters in the hall were Ning Lingge and Qi Jiaozheng. Ning Lingge made a mistake and was demoted to the temple sacrificial hall in disguise. The main reason was to attend various occasions, and there were basically no major decisions. Qi Jiaozheng began to retreat since he took office, and after leaving the seclusion, he was directly promoted to Pingzhang Da Zhenren, which meant he had nothing to do.

During this period, the temple and sacrificial hall was still operating normally because the Heavenly Master held the power of the temple and sacrificial hall. Regardless of whether the real person in charge of the temple was present or not, Zhang Kujin and others would ask the Heavenly Master for instructions. Anyway, it was impossible to make a mistake.

The main responsibilities of the temple and sacrificial hall are five: diplomacy, education, etiquette, sacrifice, and faith.

There is no good diplomacy. The problem is that the world is divided equally. There are only two "people" left in this big house on earth, and they can't play any alliance. Secret diplomacy, but it can't be a secret diplomacy between the Taoist sect and the Holy Court. Who should I hide from? As for intelligence, if the Taoist sect wants to bypass the Holy Court and the Steam Gospel negotiations, it falls within the scope of the power and responsibility of the Beichen Hall, so the diplomacy of the temple sacrificial hall is only a few face projects.

It is also difficult to achieve success in education. The four Dao Palaces: Wanxiang Dao Palace, Shangqing Palace, Wuxu Palace, and Qingling Palace. These four Dao Palaces that are responsible for the education of Taoists are not subordinates of the temple and sacrificial hall, but are on par with the temple and sacrificial hall. The Wanxiang Dao Palace is personally led by the Dazhenren of the Palm Palace. Do you expect the Dazhenren of the Palm Palace to guide the work of Pingzhang Dazhen?

The other three Taoist palaces also have real people in the Palm Palace. Although the real people in the Palm Palace are indeed not as good as the real people in the Palm Palace, these three real people in the Palm Palace are both Shenzhi Zhenren and also serve as the chief secretary of the third division. Just as the Grand Master of the Palm Palace of Zixiao Palace is the chief secretary of the Grand Master of the Great Master. Can you still interfere if you don’t look at the monk’s face and the Buddha’s face?

Fortunately, Qi Xuansu also served as the real person in the Palm Palace of Wanxiang Dao Palace and could play a little role.

In terms of etiquette, all kinds of celebrations are responsible for the temple and sacrifice hall, but they really affect the celebrations of the Taoist sect. For example, the ceremony of the Grand Master’s Election Committee and the Zixiao Palace are actually responsible for the Grand Master’s Election Committee and the Zixiao Palace. The temple and sacrifice hall can only be fought, and it only takes once in a few decades. Most of the people who are truly responsible for the temple and sacrifice hall are the Zhongyuan Festival celebrations.

In terms of sacrifice, the country's major affairs are only sacrifices and military affairs, which are indeed important. However, the great masters must attend in person in many important occasions. Whenever the great masters are involved, the Zixiao Palace will definitely intervene. Facing the Zixiao Palace, which can even compete with the Jinque when it is strong, the temple and sacrificial hall has become a fight. The temple and sacrificial hall can be independently responsible for the temple and sacrificial hall, which is the so-called War Cemetery Committee.

In terms of faith, this is the top priority. It is essentially the management and use of divine power. The "Thirty-Three Days" were assigned to the name of the temple and sacrificial hall, but this part of the power was taken away by the Heavenly Master, and the real person in the hall could not intervene.

Of course, as a real person in the palm of the hall, it is still possible to only meet his own divine power needs.

No wonder Qi Jianzheng was unwilling to be promoted to the real person of the Parliament. In addition to the power to participate in the small discussion, he was really inferior to the real person of the Parliament in other aspects. He was a real local emperor, especially the powerful real person of the Dao Mansion, who was the small trumpet real person of the head sect. As for the power to the small discussion, it was also compressed when the Grand Master personally presided over the Jinque discussion.

In fact, whether it is Qi Jiaozheng or Qi Xuansu, it essentially regards the temple and sacrifice hall as a transitional springboard. It has merits but no merits, power or no authority, all are details. The key is not to make mistakes, and no mistakes are merit.

Nowadays, Qi Xuansu has gradually become the leader of the faction. His influence does not lie in a specific position. Nanyang and Western Regions are both his people, and can indirectly influence the decision-making and personnel appointments of the great master. The little master is worthy of his name, and his power is far greater than his position.

It is said that we should not form cliques, but in the current ecological situation of the Taoist sect, if we do not form cliques, we will isolate ourselves, and the sixth generation of masters are examples. The lessons of the past are not far away, so how dare future generations not learn from it?

Therefore, Qi Xuansu consciously cultivated forces from the beginning to make allies, from Xu Jiaorong, Chen Jianchou, Chen Shuwen, Ji Jiaozhen in Nanyang, to Ye Qingshuang, Long Xiaobai, Lu Yujue, Hu Jiaochong in the Western Regions, as well as allies such as Lan Da Zhenren, Wu Niang, Qi Jiaozheng, the great master, the wife of the great master, the Tianshi and other backers. This is not considered a force in the world.

Power comes from top to bottom and from bottom to top. Two-pronged approaches.

Qi Xuansu spent about ten days to familiarize himself with the work of the temple and sacrifice hall, and then summoned the deputy hall masters led by Zhang Kujin. In fact, there was no way to tell him, but mainly to recognize his face.

Qi Xuansu is a celebrity, and many people know him. After all, Qi Xuansu often appears in public in some public places, not as mysterious as the Earth Master. But Qi Xuansu obviously cannot recognize all the people in Jiutang, so naturally he has to talk and communicate one by one.

As soon as Qi Xuansu finished talking here, Gong Jiaojun arrived.

It is said that one person has attained enlightenment and ascended to heaven. Now, as the secretary of the great master, Gong Jiaojun is the chief assistant to the Zixiao Palace. He is in charge of the first department of the Miluo Palace. He is second only to the Zixiao Palace Master. Although he is only a second-grade Taiyi Taoist, his power is not weaker than that of some Shenzhi Zhenren, and he is even better than that of them.

At this time, if you release it, you must at least be a real person who is a disciple of the real person. This is the secretary's shortcut to Zhongnan.

So Yan Yongzhen was not in a hurry to let go, but was willing to follow Qi Xuansu all the time, preferably the day when Qi Xuansu became the leader.

When everyone saw Gong Jiaojun, they were very respectful, but they dared not call him Secretary Gong, they had to call him Gong Zhenren. You know, this place is Yujing, and the real person is walking all over the ground, and the most important thing is the real person. Generally, only people who know the real person have such honors.

Gong Jiaojun was not arrogant and greeted everyone very politely. The deputy hall masters were not newcomers who had just entered Yujing. Naturally, they knew that the secretary of the Grand Master must have something to talk about when he came to find the Grand Master. It was inappropriate for them to stay here, so they said goodbye and left.

After only two people were left, Gong Jiaojun explained his purpose: "The exact date of Jiang Dazhen's ascension has been set, and the 15th day of the first lunar month is on the Yuan Festival."

Although Qi Xuansu had expected it, he couldn't help but whisper a little "ah" and said in surprise: "So quickly."

"This is what Jiang Da Zhenren himself means. The water officials will resolve troubles and be very lucky." Gong Sect Jun said, "The master of the great master respects Jiang Da Zhenren's wishes."

Qi Xuansu asked: "What instructions do the Grand Master have?"

Gong Sect Jun said: "The great master means that Jiang Dazhen Ren has great achievements in Taoism. His ascension ceremony is a major event, and he is also the first immortal to ascend to the top of the Great Master after he ascended the throne. Therefore, it must be held in great honor, which is just in line with the celebration of the Next Yuan Festival. At that time, the three deputy masters and masters will attend. In addition to Zixiao Palace, the sacrificial hall must also cooperate well in this matter. The great master hopes that the little master can communicate more with the new Grand Master of the Palace and work together to do this."

Of course, this kind of thing cannot be bothered by the Heavenly Master, so it fell on Qi Xuansu's head.

Qi Xuansu said: "Please rest assured that the master of the country will complete the task."

Gong Sect Jun smiled slightly: "The chief sect said in person that he would be relieved to be honest with Qi Zhenren."

This is Qi Xuansu's first task after taking office as the real person in the temple sacrificial hall.

Calculate the time. Qi Xuansu came to Beijing on August 15th. It took him half a month to go to the temple hall to learn about the situation. It took him ten days to understand the situation. In a blink of an eye, it was already September 15th, and there was still one month left before the Yuan Festival on October 15th.
