Chapter 57: The Selection of the Heavenly Master
Shortly after Yao Yi left, Zhang Yuelu took Liu Hu in.
Liuhu and Xiaoyin are two extremes. Xiaoyin is too noisy. As long as she is in the place, it will definitely be the focus of everyone's attention. Xiaoyin always has to make a little noise, otherwise it will not be Xiaoyin. Liuhu is too quiet and doesn't like to talk. Most of the time people always ignore her existence, especially when Liuhu and Xiaoyin are together, Liuhu basically has no such person.
However, Xiao Yin has recently gone out to shelter the limelight. He lives alone in the old house of Taishangfang under the name of his growing up, and does not live in Zixiao Palace. Therefore, Zixiao Palace is rarely quiet these days, which reminds people of Liu Hu.
Qi Xuansu took the initiative to say hello to Liu Hu: "Xiaohu, how are you doing recently?"
Liu Hu smiled shyly: "Everything is fine, it's busier than before, and there are more people looking for me in private."
In the past, Liuhu actually had a sense of hostility, but since life improved, this sense of hostility has become increasingly weak and almost disappeared.
There is a saying that after a high status, I found that there were "good people" around me. Liu Hu himself had a low status. However, as Zhang Yuelu's secretary, he had a typical low position and weight. I don't know how many people surrounded Liu Hu to please her and flatter her. They always had a smile on their faces when they met, and they knew the coldness and heat. They cared for them more meticulous than their own mother. What kind of relationships and coldness in the world are so far away that they seemed to have been in the past life.
In addition, Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu both regarded Liuhu as their family members. Although they were not as good as Xiao Yin, Liuhu did not ask for too much and was already very satisfied. The little bit of hostility from the past naturally dissipated.
Qi Xuansu explained: "If you eat someone, you are soft-mouthed and have short-handed hands. Don't be caught in those sugar-coated shells."
Liu Hu said seriously: "I've recorded it."
Qi Xuansu said to Zhang Yuelu again: "Qingxiao, I happen to have something to look for you."
Zhang Yuelu signaled Liuhu to go and she sat opposite Qi Xuansu.
Qi Xuansu pushed two lists to Zhang Yuelu: "You have a look at this first."
Zhang Yuelu picked up two lists and browsed them quickly, but the more she looked, the deeper her brows became. Zhang Yuelu has now entered the center, and during Qi Xuansu's retreat or going to war, she was the chief teacher's power. How could she not understand?
Finally, Zhang Yuelu spit out four words: "The heart is punishable."
Although Zhang Yuelu is from the Zhang family and a disciple of the Cihang lineage, she does not stand on Zhang Kucheng and Su Yuanzai's side, which is reasonable. Zhang Yuelu has never recognized such a thing.
Qi Xuansu said: "For these two lists, Zhang Kucheng's list has been completely returned to the list. I only agreed to part of Su Yuanzai's list and sent a letter to instruct me. What I want to discuss with you is not this issue, but the whole issue of Zhengyidao."
Zhang Yuelu said: "Zhengyidao is indeed a matter of gaining momentum, but it does not lie in the fact that Feiyuan Zhenren and Xiaoxiang Zhenren. The key is that Tianshi and Master support them, so they are fearless."
Qi Xuansu said: "The Heavenly Master has not had much time, so we have to consider the issue of the next Heavenly Master. If we let the real person Cihang be the Heavenly Master..."
Zhang Yuelu thoughtfully said: "The Zhang family definitely does not agree. The two major factions within Zhengyidao will have conflicts. As the master sect, you have to mediate in the center, and both sides have sought you to win your support to overwhelm the opponent. In this way, as long as you support the weak and suppress the strong, you can influence and control the situation of Zhengyidao. This is your emperor's mind? Although this trick is indeed effective, I must point out that in the long run, it is not conducive to the Taoist sect, and it is even more unfavorable to rectify the atmosphere. It is beneficial to the eyes and disaster is forever."
Zhang Yuelu was also unpolite to speak, even if the person she was talking to was Qi Xuansu at this time.
Qi Xuansu did not think it was offended, but instead laughed and said, "This is the worst thing to do when there is no way. I now have a new idea."
Zhang Yuelu couldn't help but ask, "What new idea?"
Qi Xuansu pointed to Zhang Yuelu: "You will take over as Tianshi. You are both a member of the Zhang family and a disciple of the Cihang lineage. You can balance the two. I think you are the most suitable Tianshi."
"Me?" Zhang Yuelu said in surprise, "But I am already the wife of the chief sect. Can I still be the deputy chief sect? "
"Of course." Qi Xuansu raised his voice slightly. "The Taoist sect has no explicit regulations on whether the wife of the Great Master can be the deputy master of the Great Master, but the previous example can be cited, that is Mrs. Xuansheng. She was the first Taiping Dao Dazhen person after rebuilding the Taoist sect. Donghuang is actually the second one. Could it be that Mrs. Xuansheng was not the wife of the Great Master when she was the Taiping Dazhen? As long as you cite the old example of Mrs. Xuansheng, you can certainly become the Zhengyi Dazhen."
Zhang Yuelu didn't know what to say for a moment.
Qi Xuansu continued: "It is crucial to have the title of a Heavenly Master. If you take charge of Zheng Yidao, it will definitely not go well at the beginning, but as time goes by, I believe that you can suppress Zheng Yidao's internal opposition voices and not let Zheng Yidao escape from control."
Zhang Yuelu hesitated for a moment: "You and I are husband and wife. You are the youngest master of the great master since Xuan Sheng. I am the youngest deputy master of the great master after Xuan Sheng. Will others have any explanation?"
Qi Xuansu said: "Although there has always been a saying that the wife of the head master has taken over the power of the head master, the one who really implemented this regulation was Mrs. Xuansheng, which is essentially a special example. Among the ladies of the head masters of all generations, Cihang has this qualification and ability, but there is no chance. You are the only wife of the head master who really takes over the power of the head master except Mrs. Xuansheng. Do you think others have no explanation?"
Zhang Yuelu thought for a while: "That's true."
Qi Xuansu said: "Since they are all sayings, is it that important to have more sayings and less sayings?"
Zhang Yuelu had to say: "It's really not important."
"I see that Zhang Kucheng is confused, it's time to let him wake up."
Qi Xuansu gently tapped the table with her fingers: "I, Qi Niang, Wu Niang must support you. The Tianshi has always been willing to be the head of the Zhang family, and it is likely that she will agree. As for the real person Cihang, she should understand that she has great resistance to becoming a Tianshi herself. Instead of letting other Zhang family members be the Tianshi, it is better to let you, Cihang disciple, be the Tianshi, which is most in line with her interests, so she will support you. The key lies in your cultivation. It is best for you to become an immortal before the Tianshi ascends. If you cannot become an immortal before the Tianshi ascends, you must become an immortal at the age of forty, just like Dan Taiyun back then. This is the minimum requirement, so that you can suppress the opposition."
Zhang Yuelu smiled bitterly: "This is a lot of pressure, I can only say that I can do my best."
Qi Xuansu joked: "I still have a 'Heart of Eternal Life Stone'. Do you want to give it a try? The couple is also one of the same heart."
Zhang Yuelu naturally respected Xie Bumin: "I am not used to the great witch's magical powers."
Qi Xuansu naturally would not force it: "That's it."
Zhang Yuelu pinched her eyebrows: "In terms of qualifications, I am not as good as the founder of Dan Tai from the Western Dao Sect, and I cannot compare with you and Li Changge. The goal I originally set for myself was to become an immortal at the age of 50, but it was a bit difficult for me to be ahead of it ten years."
Qi Xuansu said: "Although Dan Taiyun's qualifications are good, the other conditions are not as good as you. When Dan Taiyun became an immortal, he was not the leader of the Western Dao Sect. The resources he could mobilize were quite limited, and he could only rely on his own natural qualifications. But you are different. At this time, the great Dao Sect behind you is enough to smooth the gap in qualifications. After all, the Taoist Sect can even create immortals, and it is not a problem to help others become immortals."
Zhang Yuelu asked: "Since you said that, then you should have an idea, so don't keep it in your mouth."
Qi Xuansu said: "The True Zixiao Palace is a place dedicated to immortals to understand the way of heaven. It may be a bit difficult for a false immortal to enter it, but I can ask Ziguang Zhenjun and He Luo Shen to take turns to protect your Dharma. In the past, the place where the Taoist ancestors passed on the Tao in the past was the highest point in the world. How many immortals could not get it. It would be too much to achieve the mere ten years of hard work?"
Zhang Yuelu sighed: "It's not only not too much, but also unreasonable."
Don’t look at Qi Xuansu’s insults, there are some jokes, but there are actually quite a few resources to mobilize. The Taoist ancestors’ land of Taoism and the two immortals, that is, the great masters, have such confidence.
