The term of office of Taixu cabinet members is thirty years. Theoretically speaking, candidates for the second cabinet need not be considered until the second year after the start of the Shenxiao War. Depending on the intensity of the war, it may be postponed until the end of the war.
The quota of Taixu cabinet members at that time will profoundly reflect the post-war world order.
So Hong Junyan, an emperor who looks at the world like this, started making preparations a few years ago.
Objectively speaking, no one among these nine people has any chance of being replaced midway. They are already people who have set off the wave of the times and are the most talented representatives of the contemporary era.
The last time there was a replacement, Dou Zhao fell into the Abi Ghost Cave and was not heard from for a long time. He was deemed to have died in battle. The Chu State was in urgent need of someone to fight for the rights and interests of the Chu State in Taixu Pavilion, so Zhong Liyan was introduced.
Therefore, when Dou Zhao saw Zhao Wuyan today, his eyes became unfriendly.
If it hadn't been for the fame of the "Two Prides of Chasma Mountain", knowing that Jiang Wang and Xu Xiangqian were close friends of life and death, and had saved Zhao Yan from being buried in a cocoon of words... He would not have been so polite and silent. After all, he wanted to give his colleagues a lesson. Face. No matter how picky your colleagues are.
"So, something happened to Mr. Zhong?" Jiang Wang's tone was calm, and he couldn't tell what he was thinking: "Does Senior Sister know the inside story?"
Zhao Wuyan shook his head: "I don't know either. The person who informed me didn't say anything. He only said that this was Shushan's arrangement. He asked me to handle the affairs of Taixu Pavilion and manage Daobixuan well, so as not to lose the Confucianism in Taixuhuan. The right to speak about the environment.”
"You didn't say how Mr. Zhong is doing?"
"Didn't say."
"Who informed you?" Jugui asked, "Dean Zuoqiuwu?"
Suddenly receiving such an arrangement, Zhao Wuyan also had a headache. Why did she come here to be scrutinized by these top people? Her path is not here!
"It's not Dean Zuo." She sighed: "It's the great scholar who came down from Shushan, holding [Mr. Zi's] warrant."
With the seriousness of the play, he also lost his voice for a moment: "Mr. Zi?!"
[Mr. Zi] is the head of Shushan Mountain. He was in charge of Shushan before the Dao Li Xinqi. He is the real leader of the Confucian sect. But he is very mysterious and has no conspicuous deeds before the Dao Li Xinqi. After the Dao Li Xinqi In the past four thousand years, there has been almost no movement.
I don’t know its name, its nature, its appearance, or its writing.
Only from the mouths of a few academy deans and some great scholars who came down from the mountain of learning did we know that such a person existed.
He seemed to be just a figure sitting alone in front of the 100,000-year-old pine tree all year round, a kind of longing that stayed in front of the remains of the pine tree day after day, year after year.
The mountain of books is full of old Confucian scholars who know nothing about the scriptures. In fact, they don't care much about worldly affairs. It is extremely rare for Yan Sheng to go down the mountain to hunt down Rakshasa Mingyue Jing.
What people usually call "Shushan's decision" refers to the four great masters, Zuo Qiuwu, the dean of Qinku Academy, Chen Pu, the dean of Mugu Academy, Yao Fu, the dean of Longmen Academy, and Bai Gexiao, the dean of Qingya Academy. A joint decision. Any two of them can represent Shushan if they sign the decision.
Now [Mr. Zi] actually personally sent the order to Zhao Wuyan to come to Taixu Pavilion to replace Zhong Xuanyin.
Just for this kind of arrangement, does [Mr. Zi] need to write it in handwriting?
What kind of earth-shaking event happened?
Is Zhong Xuanyin’s fate...already determined?
Everyone in the seat had their own thoughts.
Jiang Wang had heard Mr. Yan mention such a person, but he didn't think there was anything special about it.
In today's world of great strife that is destined to be famous in history, all kinds of monsters and monsters have stepped onto the stage, and various plans that have lasted for thousands of years have been unveiled. Then some failed, some failed, and some also failed.
There is a cruel beauty of a casino that is about to close, and all the gamblers at the table are betting on life and death.
There is the [Unknown One] in the Forest of Meteorites in the front, and there is the Central Escape Zen [Jijizo] in the back. [Mr. Zi] sounds scary, not even transcendent. If there is any movement, there will be some movement, and it is not worth being frightened.
He thought for a moment: "Are you sure it's [Mr. Zi's] handwriting?"
Zhao Wuyan sighed: "Although this is the first time I have seen [Mr. Zi]'s handwriting... But no one can copy this handwriting. And the fake ones can't be sent to me, because my teacher has already
Went to Shushan."
In fact, she had no interest in Taixu Cabinet Member. Her interest was in studying. Xu Xiangqian's time outside of studying was filled to the brim, spending time in the morning with flowers and dusk in the snow, looking for tranquility in the sky, and in short, playing everywhere. Xu Xiangqian said that the two of them were "
"Nine days and ten places, happy couple", she called it "study tour".
Longmen Yao Fu climbed to Shushan, which was another heavy increase.
The yellow relic is thoughtful.
Ju Gui said solemnly: "Girl Zhao, please wait outside the door. We will discuss the matter of replacing Zhong Xuanyin later - the few of us need to discuss it."
Theoretically, Shushan has the right to make substitutions, and other cabinet members cannot interfere. Because this position belongs to Shushan, and the person sitting in this position is recommended by Shushan.
But the reason why a theory is a theory is because the process of practice is often long and far away, and may not always turn out as expected.
Of course Zhao Wuyan understood that he had not yet been recognized by the people in front of him, so he just nodded: "I happened to be wandering around in the Taixu Illusion Realm, and I haven't felt the changes here for a long time."
Jiang Wang personally escorted her out and explained: "They are not questioning Senior Sister Zhao's talent, but they still have expectations for Mr. Zhong. After all, they have worked together for so many years..."
Zhao Wuyan waved his hand: "This is human nature, how can I care about it?"
After thinking for a while, she added: "This matter is very complicated. Although I don't know the inside story, I still feel that it is covered by thick clouds. Even [Mr. Zi] was alarmed, and Master and the others also went to Shushan... Junior Brother Jiang, be careful in everything.
, don’t be impulsive.”
Jiang Wangkuan said in a loud voice: "Sister, don't worry, I'm not a reckless person."
Zhao Wuyan looked at him but said nothing.
After killing the [Unknown One], kill [Ksitigarbha], and after defeating [Ksitigarbha], beat the Cangtu God... Is there anyone more reckless than Junior Brother Jiang in the world?
But Jiang Wang called her "Senior Sister Zhao", but she couldn't really treat Jiang Wang as a junior disciple.
Xu Xiangqian can have no taboos. But she has to remember that the person in front of her is Zhenhe Zhenjun.
She also owes a life in the cocoon of words.
The pavilion door is deeply hidden, and the small buildings are unified.
When Jiang Wang returned to his position, the most important issue of today's Taixu meeting began——
This is a discussion about the missing cabinet member Zhong Xuanyin.
It was still Jiang Wang who wrote the record.
The arrival of Zhao Wuyan has heightened the seriousness of this matter. Among the people present, only those who are too lazy to use their brains, not those who are really brainless, all know the principle of planning and then acting. At this time, they were all sitting there with expressionless faces. Secretly, their spiritual thoughts are on fire - they are all using their respective relationships to explore the details, causes and consequences of this matter.
Shushan [Mr. Zi] asked Zhao Wuyan to come to Taixu Pavilion to take his place, which was an announcement of the situation. For these people with great eyes and hands, this attitude itself was also a clue.
Jiang Wang's butt was just touching the chair, and Li Yi spoke: "The latest news, the history slips have been closed, and now the entire Qinjin Academy is closed. The inside and outside are isolated, and communication is blocked. There is no way to find out what happened inside."
As expected of the one in charge at the beginning, he even grasps information faster than others.
Of course, with Daomen and the Central Empire at his back, there are few people in the world who can compare with him in terms of intelligence.
There was no strange look on everyone's faces, and they had obviously confirmed the news through their respective channels.
Check out the correct version one by one!
Jiang Wang also got confirmation through everyone's expressions.
What happened was not just Zhong Xuanyin, but the entire Qinjin Academy was involved! How could the world's No. 1 academy close its doors by rolling up the "History Slip"?
Jiang Wang believed that the closing of the historical slips must have happened today, or even just now.
As the treasure of Qinku Academy, the "Historical Bamboo Slips" with a very high ranking in Dongtian have always been in a state of expansion, recording literary events and never refusing to communicate. The real gate of Qinku Academy lies in this slip.
The No. 1 academy in the world is closing its doors. Such a major event cannot be hidden for long.
Who here is not smart?
If the book was closed yesterday, no one would ask what happened to Zhong Xuanyin today.
"It seems that the letter Zhong Xuanyin wrote to me was the last external communication. Considering that his time has been messed up, it should be said that this letter is the last communication captured by the outside world." Jugui calmly analyzed: " Based on his replies to Members Jiang and Cang, I think the changes in Qinku Academy should be a gradual thing. It was gradual in terms of process, but suddenly happened in terms of results."
Chong Xuanzun sighed with emotion: "A dike of thousands of miles collapsed in an ant nest. Once the mountain collapses, it will take a moment to think about it."
"If Qinku Academy has collapsed, who is the ant nest?" Qin Zhizhen asked carefully: "Mr. Zhong?"
"How can an anthill bear such a big responsibility?" Chongxuan followed: "The dean Zuo Qiuwu, the real person Jin Qingjia of the time, Cui Yigeng, the great disciple of the academy of this generation...everyone who has lost news of Qinjin Academy,
It can be anything.”
These words were a bit shocking, and everyone looked at him.
"Some time ago, I studied history. I have the habit of looking up the author in books. I just saw it in the Yellow Scroll of Time. But as the most influential contemporary history classic, the author of "The Sword of History" actually
He has been missing for a long time. The external statement of Qinku Academy is that he has been secretly searching for the historical truth, so the dragon has never seen its end. But there is one very important point——"
Chongxuan Zun muttered: "After Emperor Shengwu of the Mu Kingdom ascended to the throne, the "Mu Shu" has been greatly enriched. The "Mu Lue" in "Historical Swords Cut the Sea" has also been completed... This is a tribute to Sima Heng.
The integrity of the journey. He should not be unresponsive."
Huang Sheli touched his chin: "Perhaps the current situation of Qinku Academy is exactly his reaction?"
"It's not yet certain what happened in Qinku Academy." Cang Gu said slowly: "Mr. Zhong sent a message to Mr. Ju yesterday. Even if his time has been messed up, it at least means that there is still news that can come out at that time. Qinku
There are many masters in the academy, and there are even great masters like Dean Zuo, who may have sent out the key issues long ago. The truth of the incident should be in Shushan's hands, but we have no way of knowing it at the moment."
"Let Zhao Wuyan attend the meeting on his behalf and block relevant information. Shushan's intention is very clear. They want to handle this matter themselves and resolve everything within the Confucian sect." The lightning between Jugui's brows seemed to be already there.
The real existence is about to tear apart his heaven: "The question now is-should we interfere?"
The most serious cabinet member in Taixu Pavilion seems to be serious at all times, and even now he has a business-like tone: "Shushan's strength is unfathomable, at least it has the No. 1 Noble Phantasm of Xiaodongtian [Spring and Autumn Brush].
There should also be two Confucian elders like the old Prince and Taifu Yansheng, and several deans are also great masters. Now even [Mr. Zi] is alarmed... Looking at the entire world, they can't solve it.
There shouldn’t be many problems.”
"I don't know much about the people on Shushan, but Dean Chen Pu, Dean Yao Fu, and Dean Bai Gexiao, each of them has a better vision than us. Their understanding of the incident is more detailed than ours, and they have a better understanding of the incident.
The judgment of events should also be better than ours. Logically speaking, we should accept it instead of resisting it. We should wait instead of causing trouble."
"In the final analysis, Taixu Pavilion is an organization that serves the illusion of Taixu. We are not the ones who formulate the rules of this world, nor are we the enforcers of the order of this world. In theory, we do not have enough rights to interfere in the internal affairs of Qinku Academy.
"
He analyzed them one by one, and then paused, perhaps feeling that there was no need to say anything more.
Who among you doesn’t understand these principles?
He raised his eyes: "There are many reasons not to interfere, but there is only one reason to intervene - Zhong Xuanyin is a member of Taixu Cabinet, our colleague, and our comrade-in-arms."
"We have worked together for five years since the first Taixu meeting on September 9, 3926 in the Dao calendar. These were five years of crazy expansion of Taixu Illusionary Realm, and we have experienced countless things together. Shushan Rang
If Zhao Wuyan comes to attend the meeting on his behalf, it means that Zhong Xuanyin has been declared dead."
"But for me - even if Zhong Xuanyin is really dead, I have to see it with my own eyes."
Ju Gui didn't speak fast throughout the whole process, and in the end he just said calmly: "This is my statement."
Qin Zhizhen looked at him with some surprise, as if seeing a cold and stiff stone tablet suddenly turned into flowing water and burning fire. This unsmiling little old man, his stubbornness has always been directed at Yu Lu
Law, this seems to be the first time it falls on a specific person.
"You have always been a person who lives by the rules. Occasionally, you will be willful and look much cuter." Dou Zhao commented lazily: "But it's not enough."
"A man is born in heaven and earth, how could he have so many considerations and shackles?"
He slowly sat up straight: "Is Zhong Xuanyin one of ours? Can't be contacted? Then we will contact him. If we don't get a response when we write to him, we will go to the door to find him. If the door is locked, we will open it -
—It’s such a simple thing.”
Holding the knife horizontally on his knees, he raised his hand and wiped the knife's spine: "Who will stop it? Who can stop it? Looking at the whole world, even if there are consequences that we cannot bear, it is not in this matter."
"We are not here to interfere with anything in Taixu Pavilion." Jiang Wang concluded aloud at this time: "We are just going to pick up Mr. Zhong for a meeting. Everyone is very busy. It's not okay for him to be so lazy all the time. He keeps asking me to write records.
, my handwriting... isn’t very pretty either.”
There was a moment of silence in the pavilion, and then everyone stood up.
Ju Gui's eyes did not look at anyone. He just announced in his almost constant, stone-carved voice: "The proposal to find Zhong Xuanyin... was unanimously approved."
The entire Taixu Pavilion was filled with bright light and disappeared.
