Chapter 53 One public and two private
Mr. Old Yin made a gesture that imitated the pendulum swing back and forth: "The so-called left and right swing is, as the name suggests, and swings back and forth between left and right, and will not completely fall to either side. Zhang Qihan is now swaying left and right. If Zhang Qihan completely falls to us, some external force is needed."
Qi Xuansu stood up and walked back and forth in the Weiming Hall: "The most direct and effective external force factor is of course military pressure, but Fenglinzhou is too far away, and the Taoist sect now lacks a fleet, which is beyond reach. The most critical point is that Fenglinzhou is a secondary battlefield. As long as the overall situation of the frontal battlefield in the Central Plains has been determined, Fenglinzhou, which is isolated overseas, is almost a sign of decisiveness and is not worth investing too much military force, so military pressure is not feasible."
Mr. Old Yin also stood up and faced Qi Xuansu. His gaze moved as Qi Xuansu moved, and he was always firmly locked on Qi Xuansu: "There are only four things: use force to stubbornly, move it with emotion, explain it with reason, and lure it with profit. Since the 'power' is not enough, we should start with 'emotion', 'reason', 'benefit'."
Qi Xuansu stopped and looked at Mr. Old Yin: "How to explain the word '未'? How to explain the word 'li'? How to explain the word 'li'? How to explain the word 'li'?"
Mr. Old Yin said: "I summarize it as one public and two private.
"Yi Gong refers to the great righteousness of the Taoist sect. Since the Zulong, the concept of great unification has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Whoever dares to split the Taoist sect will be the sinner of the world and the sinner of history. They will bear historical responsibilities and be criticized for the eternal period. At this point, Zhang Qihan, as the senior leader of the Taoist sect who is in charge of one side, must have a clear attitude, whether to stand on the orthodox side of the Taoist sect or on the side of rebellion. To put it bluntly, even if the Qin-Li Alliance can win, the history of the future will be recorded in the future, and they will be said to be rebellion and power.
"Two private personalities refer to private friendship and private interests, and public and private interests should be taken into account. We only talk about the righteousness of Taoism, which is particularly deficient for immortals like Zhang Qihan. After all, immortals have a free and easy mentality. What should I do with the world? At worst, what can I do when I ascend to heaven? So we have to come up with something that makes Zhang Qihan feel moved, and love and profit, and work together with two-pronged approaches."
Qi Xuansu asked, "Who here has a close personal relationship with Zhang Qihan?"
Mr. Old Yin replied: "As far as I know, he is Yan Dazhen of Dongluosa Prefecture."
"Yan Dazhenren?" Qi Xuansu's tone suddenly rose three points, "Don't tell me, these two people had a fate when they were young."
Not to mention Qi Xuansu, even Ci Hang showed a look of surprise, obviously not knowing it.
Mr. Old Yin smiled and said, "I didn't know it at first, and this was told by the real person of Lan Da. I was also shocked at the time. I have to say that the two people did a very good job of keeping secrets. Even the sixth generation of disciples knew it. The reason why Lan Da Zhenren knew it was a coincidence. After all, the foundation of the Lan family is in Dongposa, and Borneo is between Fenglin and Bora. In short, Lan Da Zhenren knew it."
Qi Xuansu can already make up for a big show:
A young man and woman were in love, and Yemen were in a good match. They were both outstanding figures in the Taoist sect. They were a couple of gods and fairies. Unfortunately, one was from Taiping Dao and the other was from the right one. The two camps were opposite each other. These two young people were very important figures in their respective camps, and they were eventually forced to separate under pressure. From then on, one did not marry and the other did not marry.
In a blink of an eye, decades passed by. The young man of that year was already a white-haired old man, and the young woman of that year also became a white-haired old woman, and there was no time left.
At the same time, both of them are in the middle of their own camps, and they can move their whole body with one move. Every move has a great impact. Although they are gone from the pressure from the elders above, they cannot continue their relationship.
However, the two still had contact in private, but somehow they were found out by Lan Da Zhenren.
It is also possible that Landa Zhenren knew it when she was young, but she just kept it in her mouth and didn't say it.
The most miserable person is no longer a young man.
The older generation has been young, and their stories must be more than these. Their once frivolous and vigorous aura was just to maintain their image, and they deliberately did not say it.
Qi Xuansu wanted to laugh a little. Whenever he thought of Yan Dazhen's face, his eyebrows and eyes were graceful and charming. It was vaguely visible that he must have been a beauty when he was young. But he always had expressionless face, his mouth sagging, and his face was covered with dense evil spirits. It was really daunting, just like a stubborn old woman who specialized in the storybook to break up couples.
It is hard to imagine what it would be like to stand together like this with the immortal Zhang Qihan.
Real Person Cihang guessed what Qi Xuansu was thinking and couldn't help but say: "People always change. When Yan Dazhen Person got older, he became more and more majestic, but when he was young, he was a beautiful and gentle woman, and he was the object of admiration for many of the six generations of predecessors."
Xiao Yin grinned: "In this way, wouldn't Lao Zhang be able to... after he gets old..."
Before he finished speaking, he was forced back by Zhang Yuelu's gaze.
Xiao Yin cleared his throat after realizing it, pretending that he was fine, he began to look up at the sky, and even whistled.
Qi Xuansu smiled: "Xiao Yin, you offended grandpa first today, and now you are going to offend Lao Zhang again. I don't think about it anymore. Qi Niang, the biggest Baoyin Sect, is not in Yujing, but no one can protect you."
"Then what, I have something to do, you guys talk about." Xiao Yin turned around and left.
Qi Xuansu ignored Xiao Yin and called Yan Yongzhen over: "You draft a letter to Yan Dazhen in my tone. The main content is to ask Yan Dazhen to help persuade Zhang Dazhen. You know Yan Dazhen. You know Yan Dazhen. You should consider how to make words and sentences for yourself. After I copied it, you should take this letter and go to Dongposa Forum to meet Yan Dazhen, and hand it over to Yan Dazhen. If Yan Dazhen does not agree, you should notify me immediately. At the same time, you will also stay in Dongposa Forum to do the job of Yan Dazhen."
Yan Yongzhen took the order and left.
Qi Xuansu also said: "In addition to personal friendship, there are also personal interests."
Mr. Old Yin said: "That's right. But when he reaches Zhang Qihan's position, Taiping money is meaningless. The road to power has basically come to an end. There is no need to seek immortal cultivation like other Pingzhang Dazhenren. All he wants is a fame behind him. After all, fame and fortune are not divided."
Qi Xuansu fell into deep thought: "You said just now that Zhang Qihan is ready to enter the West Palace."
Mr. Old Yin said: "The three halls of the ancestors are respected by the middle hall, followed by the east hall, and the west hall again. It is certainly good to enter the west hall, but wouldn't it be better to enter the east hall?"
Qi Xuansu said: "Mr. Yin is talking about the title of deputy head coach Dazhen."
In fact, Qi Xuansu has considered the issue after conquering the Taiping Road. Li Changgeng will definitely not be the deputy head master. Whether he can enter the Ancestor Hall is still a different story. The person Qi Xuansu really likes is the old boss Qingwei Zhenren.
It can be said that the most suitable candidate for the national teacher in Qi Xuansu's mind is Zhenren Qingwei, which is unquestionable. Qi Xuansu even believes that only Zhenren Qingwei can clean up the mess of Taipingdao.
Now that you want Zhang Qihan to become the deputy chief sect, Qi Xuansu is unwilling to accept it from the bottom of his heart. This is a bit like marrying a wife. Qi Xuansu likes Zhang Yuelu and wants to marry Zhang Yuelu. At this time, you ask him to marry Li Qingnu, not that Li Qingnu is not good, but in Qi Xuansu's heart, the two are incomparable.
Mr. Yin was a mature person, so he naturally saw Qi Xuansu's concerns and reminded him: "Zhang Qihan was old after all, and even if he was the deputy chief sect, he would not be able to be a few years. He just gave him the title of deputy chief sect. Fortunately, after ascending, he entered the East Palace with a legitimate reputation."
This indeed reminds Qi Xuansu that Qingwei Zhenren is still young and has been still decades long, and it is not bad for these few years.
So Qi Xuansu made up his mind: "Then I will give him the position of deputy head sect, Dazhenren. As long as he stands on the side of the Taoist sect, stands on the side of the orthodox, draws a clear line with the Qin-Li Alliance, and turns against each other, and helps the Taoist sect to quell the rebellion, he will still be able to lose the position of deputy head sect, Dazhenren."
Mr. Old Yin said: "I'm afraid the chief tutor should write a handwritten letter for this matter."
"This is natural." Qi Xuansu agreed and ordered, "This matter must be secret and no trace of the news can be leaked."
Everyone answered it.
