Hou Zi rushed back at full speed. He was not sure whether he could make it back before the annual meeting started.
This was originally a perfectly planned trip, but it was disrupted by the Beitianmen monks, and we spent more than half a year here. We were pressed for time, and there was nothing we could do.
Before coming out this time, he mentioned to Li Chuping that if everything went well, he would rush back to Yujing before the annual meeting, and Li Chuping agreed.
The annual meeting of the Shanmen is held every ten years. In theory, all disciples with non-important duties can come back voluntarily to participate. Therefore, if he is still the captain of Pingliang Prefecture, he must obtain an order from the Sikong Prefecture to return. This is not necessary now, because
He is a sinecure.
Flying in the air, his mind was exceptionally clear, and he suddenly realized a problem. Li Chuping had clearly told him that he would not come back to attend this annual meeting. The reason was that Pingliang Prefecture was unstable and needed a Jindan cultivator to preside over it, but
Now it seems that there is a deep meaning in it.
Li Chuping didn't come back, but he gave up his position as captain, giving him a chance... So they could avoid each other perfectly at the Shanmen annual meeting, saving a lot of embarrassment.
It is hard to describe how this elder who was both a teacher and a friend struggled so much during his enlightenment process.
But he knew about this situation and knew that there were too many things involved behind Li Chuping's back, and it was impossible to abandon everything to support him. It was not easy to do this, and people had to be satisfied.
In a monk's life, there will be many noble people, but the so-called noble people are not all-encompassing like parents taking care of their children, but help in a certain period, a certain event, and a certain aspect.
For example, Gusou, Li Chuping, Yu Zhengxing, Chong Ling, Xiao Zhenren, etc. If the scope is expanded, there will be more...
"Of course not. How can the two real people of Xu Zong change the ancestral system casually if they want to maintain the overall situation? Well, there is no need to tell you these things originally, but since you asked, I will say a few words?"
"At this annual meeting of the Yanmen, you will be the representative of the Sikong Mansion in the Three Realms of Tongtian. You must be mentally prepared to speak on the stage." Judge Cheng looked at him with profound meaning.
First, I went back to Sikong Mansion to report. After going through the procedures, Judge Cheng Wan was there, but Li Biejia did not come back, which made people sigh.
Looking at this disciple carefully, I can't help but admire his super ability to make trouble; a small natural environment can stir up the storm, not only outside, but also inside; not only at low levels, but now
Has it actually disturbed the senior officials of Shanmen?
...On the third day of March, I returned to Yujing City.
Judge Cheng narrowed his eyes, "Although the aftermath is a bit dirty, merit is merit and fault is fault. The Sikong Mansion has been standing for thousands of years. It relies on the rules and never erases the achievements of the disciples because of some external factors.
, even if you betray Quanzhen, you deserve a lot of credit!"
"Why not you? Could it be someone else? Let's not talk about the past achievements, let's just talk about the recent achievements. The Situ Mansion has been destroyed with a sword, the northwest has been reforested in the desert, and the order of Pingliang Prefecture has completely laid the foundation for our Yanmen.
As a sect leader, the last two things alone have given you special merits. Among all the fellow disciples in the Sikong Mansion, there is no one who has the best, isn't this enough?"
But Hou Zi was very serious, "Uncle Master, this is not cheap, I earned it with my life! By the way, who made such a request? It can't be our Sikong Mansion, right?"
His benefactor, Li Biejia, was so disturbed that he did not dare to come back. He had become the laughing stock of the Sikong Mansion. Of course, if it were Li Chuping, he would not come back. If he couldn't offend him, why not hide away?
"It's not the intention of the three palaces, nor the idea of the two princes, but the pressure from other real people. I don't know which real person it is, but I am sure there is more than one!
Hou Zi, if you do this, the Sikong Mansion can’t afford to support it. Our pond is too shallow. Will you mess it up again?”
The key is to look at yourself. If you let people see your potential, there will be noble people.
Judge Cheng, "There will be a total of three monks in the Third Realm of Tongtian who will get such an opportunity, one from each of the three palaces. You are one of them. Do you feel honored?"
He was lucky. There was still one month left before the Shanmen annual meeting, but Yanmen sword cultivators from all over the country had already gathered one after another to visit relatives, friends, and teachers. It was also a rare gathering of the Quanzhen Sect.
Hou Zi's answer hit the nail on the head, "Why discuss? If only one ordinary disciple is given a chance, then who is willing to give in? Whoever gives in will lose face in the competition between the three prefectures; everyone agrees that this is a noble act, and giving up only one is strength."
Not good..."
Judge Cheng pointed at him and said, "You are really taking advantage of your words and still behave like a good boy."
Hou Zi laughed dryly, "Flies don't bite seamless eggs. Do you think there is such a possibility that the reason why there is constant trouble is that there is something wrong with some rules? Usually it doesn't matter, everyone makes do with it, and does the work carelessly, but
Once the mainland changes, some things can no longer be concealed?
It doesn't hurt for us to mix things up among ourselves. There is always room for maneuver and the possibility of improvement. If one day the scars are caused by outsiders, it will not be troublesome, but fatal!"
"It's a great honor. I thought that opportunities like this would be reserved for true disciples."
"Uncle Master, after the world is opened, the threat will not only come from the Taoist sect! It will also come from outside the world!"
"You said it's a Taoist sect? They've been doing this for thousands of years, and nothing has happened?"
"You even talked about special merits?" Hou Zi was a little surprised.
Judge Cheng's eyes became sharp, "It was indeed like this before, but this time it is different. There is a voice asking for ordinary disciples to be given a chance. After discussion and consideration from above, it is better to give three chances than one chance, so this time
The candidates for the three palaces are all ordinary disciples."
Hou Tzu was ashamed, "I've learned a lesson."
Hou Zi was a little surprised, "Why me? I thought the Sikong Mansion had forgotten about me, a little companion."
Judge Cheng was completely speechless. He had also thought about these things, but he didn't think that much when he was in the game. But one thing he knew was that there were many people in the Sikong Mansion who were facilitating Hou Tzu's interference.
!
Otherwise, it would be impossible to let Hou Zi go to the stage to deliver a speech. Among these people are Li Chuping who is hiding, Judge Wan who is working behind the scenes, and himself who is clearly reminding and secretly inciting to provide information...
"We believe that when Tang Yan challenges you, Duan Wuqian should stand up without hesitation. Constellation versus constellation, this is the last word!
The result is that you did not lose, but Tang Yan withdrew from the position of true successor of the constellation. This has a great impact on our middle and low-level monks in the Shan sect, and is also a major factor in causing such a change!
If the result is not like this, what if you lose?
Where is the responsibility of the true disciples? We didn’t see it! So everyone thinks it’s not unreasonable for you to interfere?”
