Chapter 90 Conversation
The master of the tutor asked Qingwei to have tea together. This was the first private meeting between the two after the election.
Many people are very concerned about the meeting, but few people know what the two are talking about.
The meeting place was chosen in the Weiming Hall of Zixiao Palace. Gong Jiaojun, the secretary of the great sect, and Shen Yuqing, the secretary of the Qingwei Zhenren, left after serving tea. There were only two people in the hall.
The scale of such private conversations is bound to be very large. Many things that are not easy to say in discussions, not easy to say in public, or even quite incorrect.
It was still the less serious small coffee table. Last time Qi Xuansu and others agreed on the reopening of the land trade route here. This small coffee table was actually done on purpose. Starting from the five generations of great masters, three major masters, and may also welcome the fourth major master, which can be regarded as witnessing the changes in history.
The Grand Master and the Qingwei Zhenren sat opposite each other, leaning back on the back of the chair, making them more relaxed.
But what the two talked about was not as easy as it seemed.
After all, the identities of the two are here, and they are not vulgar women, so it is impossible to specifically talk about family matters. For them, it is enough to mention such small matters occasionally, and there is no need to specifically talk about them.
"I have thought about the Taoist sect in Fenglinzhou and Nanyang. After nearly two hundred years of expansion, the Taoist sect has a largest territory far beyond all dynasties, but the problems we face are even more complicated. You should be deeply touched by yourself when you are responsible for the war in Fenglinzhou." The master sect went straight to the point.
Qingwei Zhenren said: "My biggest feeling is that many contradictions do not exist in isolation, but are the result of the combined action of multiple factors."
The master of the great master said: "Today we are the only ones who are you and me, so we won't say those correct nonsense. In my opinion, there are four factors that trouble the Taoist sect now, which we cannot solve in a short period of time.
"The first factor is that the core family of the Taoist sect is in power. Since the core family has the power, there must be internal forces within the Taoist sect outside the core family. It is said that the sect of gentlemen is killed for five generations, and we are already seven generations of disciples, and they are also within this law. They are not willing to concentrate the power of the Taoist sect in the hands of some core families and require more power and interests. However, because they are still members of the Taoist sect, they are much better than other people who are not Taoist sects, so they fight but do not break, and their demands are to divide more cakes, which require more power and interests, but they are unwilling to leave the Taoist sect or overthrow the Taoist sect."
Qingwei Zhenren said: "Wang Jiaohe is considered a representative of this type of person. Although he suppressed Wang Jiaohe, it can be foreseen that there will be more Wang Jiaohe in the future. In essence, if the distribution of power and interests is not solved, such problems will emerge one after another."
The master sect continued: "The second factor is the overseas place, to be precise, the issue of Xidao Gate and the Southern Continent. We have given a lot of support and we must have something to ask for. But Xidao Gate also has its own interests. Now there is a threat of the steam gospel. Of course, they are willing to bow their heads in front of the Taoist sect, but when the external threat disappears, they will inevitably seek so-called "independence", trying to get rid of the control and influence of the Taoist sect and make themselves a separate pole."
Zhenren Qingwei said: "The Jinque discussion has been discussed at the time. I remember that it was the first time that Tianyuan attended the Jinque discussion. I opposed this matter at that time. It is not enough for a full-scale envoy of the Taoist Sect. The Taoist Sect must deeply interfere with the Xidao Sect and strongly control the Xidao Sect. If necessary, it can also push the Xidao Sect to return to the Taoist Sect."
The master of the great master was not angry: "One time, another time."
The real person Qingwei knew that the attitude of the master sect had changed, and perhaps some consensus could be reached between the two.
However, the Grand Master did not discuss this issue in depth, but instead said: "The third factor comes from local forces. These local forces are not powerful factions in the Central Plains, but Fenglinzhou Weiyuan Kingdom, Nanyang Dayu Kingdom, and some areas of the Western Regions, Silla and other places. These places have already developed a state form that does not belong to the Central Plains dynasty. The resistance forces in these places exist in the form of the confluence of certain people within the Taoist sect and local local forces.
"As the first factor I just mentioned, the demands of some people in the Taoist sect cannot be satisfied by the Taoist sect, then they will definitely find a place that can satisfy their interests. How to start a Taoist sect, they will draw the tricks. After seeing the strength of the Taoist sect, some people in the local local forces were eager to obtain this power in order to get rid of the control of the Taoist sect. So the two sides hit it off, and while exploring outstanding talents from the Taoist sect, they were playing two-faced sect secretly."
Qingwei Zhenren said: "The typical representative of this kind of local local forces is Chen Shuhua. The alliance between Wang Jiaohe and Chen Shuhua is almost inevitable. When the Taoist sect is strong, they just seek greater power and more benefits. But when the Taoist sect weakens, they will seek to break away from the Taoist sect and are unfamiliar ungrateful wolves."
The great master said: "Compared with Nanyang, I think the problem in Fenglinzhou will only be more serious. Compared with the pioneers of past dynasties, you and I are considered successful people. These problems must be considered. We cannot let the foundation passed down by the ancestors be destroyed in our hands. That is to be written into history books."
In fact, there is another thing that the Great Master did not mention about Ke Qingwei Zhenren, that is the Daxuan court. This "low Taoist sect" is the largest local force and the most threat to the Daxuan sect. Other places can also be said to be tinea scabies, but the Daxuan court is the elephant in the room.
Zhenren Qingwei took a sip of tea and fell into deep thought.
Even if you don’t care about your reputation forever, what about your reputation forever?
The Grand Master waited for a moment before saying, "The fourth factor is that it comes from within us. The current power structure is very different from the Xuansheng period. Except for the Zhang family and the Li family, it is inevitable that other families will rise and fall, and there will inevitably be a situation where a few families are the core and others are vassals. As for the Yao family, it was also the one that truly grew and grew after Xuansheng passed away."
The real person Qingwei already understood what the master sect was going to say.
As expected, the master sect continued: "The conflict between the Taoist family and the poor forces is inevitable, because if the Taoist sect wants to obtain greater benefits, it will inevitably cultivate more talents. Just like the emperor and the minister, the emperor can take back all the power, but the emperor's energy will inevitably be unable to take into account. The bigger the country, the more things the country does, and if you want to help, you have to separate the power. If you divide the power, you will fight for greater power. This is an unsolvable problem.
Zhenren Qingwei had to express his opinion: "What the Grand Master said is very true, and it should be."
