Chapter 128: Xishan Secret Discussion Part 1

Taihu Lake, West Dongting Mountain, Jinlin Villa

Jinlin Villa is located at the highest point of Xishan Mountain. On the top of the tallest building in the Villa, you can enjoy the mountain and lake views in all directions. It is an excellent place.

A lot of effort was put into the construction of Jinlin Villa, and the scenery is very pleasant. The weather in early summer is not very hot. This time is supposed to be a good time for relaxation, but the entire Jinlin Villa cannot feel even a trace of it.

easy

At ten steps and one post, three steps and one sentry, the disciples of the Qinglong Sect in blue uniforms closely guarded the various arteries and commanding heights of Jinlin Villa, with serious faces and meticulous attention to detail.

The center of the villa is so quiet that you can hear a pin drop, but the periphery of the villa is full of people coming in and out, and it is extremely busy. People in various costumes come and go in a hurry, and no one knows what they are doing.

In the large room in the center of the inner courtyard of the villa, there were more than a dozen people sitting according to their positions in the sect. Except for the mysterious deputy leader, Ouyang Cuo, the young leader, also did not appear.

But the leader Ouyang Rui, the envoys on the left and right, the three elders, the four protectors, and the seven Vajras (one has died, only seven are left for now) are all gathered together. There is no doubt that this is a high-level plenary meeting of the Qinglong Sect.

It can be foreseen that the matters discussed at this meeting must be major and important matters related to the entire Qinglong Sect.

The leader of the Qinglong Sect, Ouyang Rui, looks kind-hearted, but he is actually a fat, middle-aged man. It makes people wonder how he could have such a handsome son like Ouyang Cuo. At this moment, he is sitting high on the leader's emerald throne with his eyes closed, looking at the audience.

What everyone said seemed to be indifferent, and they had no intention of saying the last two sentences.

The left and right messengers are two middle-aged men. They look very similar, but their temperaments are completely different. The left messenger is very quiet and solemn, sitting there as if he is integrated with the chair under his buttocks. The right messenger is like a chair.

The sharp steel knife, with extremely keen eyesight, flashed like a sharp blade when it was swept downwards.

The head of the three elders turned out to be a thin old woman. The flesh on her face was sunken and her skin was wrinkled. She looked very old, as if a gust of wind could blow her to the middle of the lake.

Sitting on the top of the table, she has been sitting so quietly. Only her coughing from time to time shows that she is still a living thing.

The two Wuyi monsters are still the same, with their four triangular eyes turning around, not knowing what they are looking at.

Among the four guardians, Baihu, Suzaku and Xuanwu have already recovered from their injuries. They are now sitting there taking turns reporting on the affairs they are responsible for. The Qinglong Guardian who ranks first among them is a young man with an expressionless face. Judging from his age,

He cannot be more than twenty-five years old at most. Since this young protector can take the position of the Azure Dragon Protector in the Qinglong Sect, his strength is naturally not weak. Otherwise, he would not be so calm and composed when facing his three colleagues.

Got it

Each of the seven King Kongs looks weird - this is not surprising. The Seven King Kongs are all named after poisons, so it is reasonable for them to look weird and dress up a bit.

"...So I believe that the new law that the Wei Dynasty is about to promulgate and implement may have a huge impact on the great cause of the Holy Religion," Zhuque concluded.

Ouyang Rui still said nothing and closed his eyes to rest.

The envoy on the right nodded and said: "It sounds like the imperial court's methods are quite right. These methods are quite beneficial to the people. I'm afraid it will be really detrimental to our missionary work."

Zuo Shi suddenly looked at the old woman who was the head of the three elders and asked, "What does Elder Wen think?"

The old woman didn't even raise her eyelids, she just said half-heartedly: "I don't care about this."

Zuo Shi was pushed back by her neither softly nor hard, but he showed no sign of anger at all. He smiled and nodded, then looked at the two Wuyi monsters: "What do you two elders mean?"

The two Wuyi monsters shook their heads together and waved their hands: "You think about it, you think about it."

Zuo Shi laughed, looked at the Azure Dragon Protector again, and asked kindly: "Yinlong, what do you mean?"

The Qinglong Protector, known as the Hidden Dragon, said calmly: "Uncle Zuo clearly knows what I mean, why do I have to say it myself?"

Uncle Zuo still smiled: "Even if I know what you mean, I still have to let everyone understand?"

Protector Qinglong remained expressionless and said: "Well, let me tell you my opinion. The new law of the imperial court will not have a bad impact on us, but may become an opportunity for our holy religion to further grow."

When Suzaku heard this, he raised his eyebrows and asked unconvincingly: "Why?"

Qinglong Dharma Protector's face was as calm as water: "Because this new law will definitely not be implemented."

Suzaku frowned: "What's the reason?"

"It's very simple." Protector Qinglong said calmly: "Qiu Linjiang's new law has offended all the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, especially the powerful wealthy groups. Moreover, this new law has also harmed the vested interests of officials from poor families to a great extent. Such a poaching oneself

No one is really willing to implement the new law in the corner. Officials all over the world do not implement it conscientiously. No matter how loudly they shout at the court, it will be in vain."

Zhuque thought for a while, but was still a little dissatisfied: "Even if it can't be implemented, at least the court has shouted out. The ordinary people can only complain and resent the officials below. They will not be so resentful towards the emperor and the court because of this."

If so, at least it shouldn’t be said to be an opportunity for our Holy Religion to further grow?”

Protector Qinglong shook his head slightly: "With the full support of the emperor, Qiu Linjiang will definitely become more powerful once the new law is released. At this time, there will inevitably be some officials who have not been successful in their career and will join Qiu Linjiang's camp with a speculative mentality.

These people are just speculators. How can they really take the implementation of the new law seriously? They must do it in the name of enforcing the new law for their own promotion and wealth. In this way, the new law will inevitably be messed up, and the effect...

It’s better not to do this, it will naturally become an opportunity for our Holy Religion.”

Suzaku was stunned for a moment and said subconsciously: "But this is just your guess. How do you know that Qiu Linjiang is not an extremely shrewd person and can handle this matter well?"

Protector Qinglong nodded: "Yes, these are just my guesses, but they are not unreasonable and random guesses. For example, when you talked about Qiu Linjiang's actions and abilities, have you ever thought about it?

A relatively high-ranking local official was suddenly promoted to the central government as the left deputy governor. His butt is not yet hot, and he is about to be promoted to senior minister. If it were you who entered the central government, could you guarantee that you would not become arrogant? More

What's more, Qiu Linjiang is originally a self-proclaimed person. This kind of person may not value wealth, may not be afraid of power, or may want to do something to make his name famous throughout the ages. But they usually have a big weakness, that is, they have high ambitions but low abilities.

He is a talkative but not good at pragmatism. Because he was promoted out of thin air, he is not familiar with the central government. It is natural for him to make mistakes."

Suzaku still wanted to tell the difference, but suddenly he heard Ouyang Rui on the emerald throne suddenly say: "Yinlong is right, this matter is likely to become an opportunity for the Holy Cult."

----------Dividing line----------It snows in Changsha, sunny, rainy... I accidentally got sick again, so I ate some

What about cold capsules? I'm very sleepy. Let's do this for now. I'll make up for whatever I owe tomorrow.

By the way, I really don’t want to be in debt at the end of the month and feel depressed.
