This is exactly the difficulty. Jin Que obviously does not want to destroy the existing structure of Borneo and does not want to play the trick of luring the snake out of its hole, so it has to nip it in advance as soon as it has signs. However, this also leads to a serious lack of evidence.
In other words, the available evidence is seriously insufficient.
This requires Qi Xuansu to find out these evidences one by one and hold them in his hands. This is Qi Xuansu's main responsibility. To put it bluntly, it is to charge into the battle and confront the Wang family head-on.
Dazhen Lan Hexu serves as Qi Xuansu's backing, shields him from wind and rain, helps him share the pressure, supports him, and at the same time restrains Wang Jiaohe and other leaders of local powerful factions. When the time is right, he will personally represent the Taoist sect.
, and captured it in one fell swoop.
To put it bluntly, if the Taoist sect wants to scare the monkeys, it must occupy the high ground of morality and law, have reasons to rely on, and convince the powerful factions in other places. In this way, it conveys an attitude that you can be safe as long as you stay safe, not the senior officials of Yujing.
Take down whoever you want.
Of course Qi Xuansu understands this. The key is speed. If the Wang family comes to their senses, realizes that there is no way out, and decides to fight to the death, then he will become someone who "forces rebellion" against the Wang family. At most, he will have no merit or demerit.
, there is absolutely no meritorious service.
At the same time, we must also pay attention to the trends of forces in other parts of Borneo. Of course, those who are colluding must be dealt with, but we cannot push those neutral ones to the side of the Wang family, let alone let them die. We feel that the Taoist sect wants to eliminate all local forces, which is very difficult.
To test Qi Xuansu's method of doing things, you cannot just rely on brute force.
Qi Xuansu had considered it before coming here and said, "The Wang family is a big tree with lush branches and leaves, deep roots, and cannot be easily shaken. If you just use an ax to chop it, it will be too loud and inefficient. It will easily scare the grass and scare the snake. It is not wise."
To do this, you should choose a point, use a drill or chisel to make a hole first, then use this hole as a breakthrough to spread around, and then cut it in half. Finally, there is only one root left, which can be dealt with slowly.
"
Lan Hexu became somewhat interested. "When you hold fire without burning your fingers, the power lies in your speed. The sharp nails penetrate into gold and stone, and you focus on one point. If you want to dig a hole, you must first determine one point. Who is your target?"
Qi Xuansu whispered, "Wang Danqing."
Lan Hexu was not surprised, he just said, "I heard that you had some issues with him?"
Qi Xuansu did not hide this, "Yes, I investigated afterwards and found that he was an admirer of Deputy Hall Master Zhang, and my relationship with Deputy Hall Master Zhang became the trigger for our conflict. Maybe there are deeper reasons,
But on the surface, it looks like young people are jealous."
Lan Hexu asked, "Private grudges?"
Qi Xuansu shook his head and said, "The reason why I chose Wang Danqing is related to personal grudges, but it is not
In order to avenge myself. But I think this personal grudge can be an excellent cover. In the eyes of other people and the Wang family, the reason why I caused trouble with Wang Danqing was just because of personal grudges and the jealousy of young people, and I did not think of it.
Our true purpose is that the Wang family will not take risks easily, but rather want to resolve their grudges with me, or even make concessions, which can be regarded as a way to paralyze them."
There was a smile on Lan Hexu's face: "Very good, it seems that Master Donghua did not misjudge the person. He sent you to Borneo as a party."
Qi Xuansu asked, "Does the great master allow me to tear open the gap between Wang Danqing and achieve a breakthrough?"
"I can't seem to find any reason to object." Lan Hexu said with a smile, "Although you have to be cautious, don't be too forward-thinking and just go ahead and do it."
Qi Xuansu said in a deep voice, "Yes."
While the two were talking, Ke Qingqing and Lan Hexu's secretary, who had followed Qi Xuansu to Borneo, were waiting in the room outside.
After finishing the conversation, Lan Hexu ordered his secretary to send Qi Xuansu to the signing room of the second deputy palace master.
Qi Xuansu had met many secretaries with amazing energy, and he did not underestimate this secretary, so he had to introduce them to each other. The secretary's name was Xu Jiaorong, and she was a woman.
Generally speaking, female secretaries are all women, such as Cihang Zhenren and Zhang Yuelu.
It is rare for male Taoist priests to use female Taoist priests as secretaries. This is mainly because they are afraid of causing some bad rumors. But at the age of Landa Zhenren, such things don’t matter anymore, and no one will use such things to attack.
A great master of Pingzhang.
Of course, Qi Xuansu also used Ke Qingqing, a female Taoist priest. It can only be said to be a coincidence. Qi Xuansu did not plan to use it for too long. The secretary always had to go out. After Mu Jin next to Zhang Yuelu was released, he would send Ke Qingqing out.
Send her to Zhang Yuelu and ask her to be Zhang Yuelu's secretary. Doesn't she admire the legendary Zhang Yuelu? Let her see him every day.
Because Lan Hexu is a first-grade innocent Taoist priest, Xu Jiaorong is also a high-grade Taoist priest and is also a third-grade Youyi Taoist priest.
The two talked happily. If anything happens in the future, if Lan Hexu cannot come forward, this secretary will come forward to solve some problems on his behalf. In a sense, Xu Jiaorong is Lan Hexu's
incarnation.
The Water Palace is a continuous palace, connected by different palaces to form a "community", and each palace is connected by a water corridor.
The signing room of the Grand Master is on the east side, and the signing room of the second deputy head of the palace is on the west. There is a lake in the middle, and the two sides are connected by a long water corridor.
Under the guidance of Xu Jiaorong, Qi Xuansu and Ke Qingqing came to their signing room. In fact, in addition to Ke Qingqing, Qi Xuansu also brought two of his own team members, namely Lu Yuting and Han Yongfeng. The two were on the battlefield of Fenglinzhou
They had accumulated a lot of merit, but the two of them chose to exchange their merits in battle for corresponding elixirs to improve their realm, so they were still in charge.
At this time, in addition to Lu Yuting and Han Yongfeng, there were seven other principals who were originally subordinate to the second deputy palace master.
This is not surprising, how old is the Imperial Palace? It has been abandoned for many years, and it is the core of the imperial court. The power of the Taoist sect must be restricted, so the number of principals and spiritual officials is not large.
But overseas Taoist mansions are different. They control a continent, and both the territory and the population far exceed the Taoist mansions in the Central Plains. That's why they have high-ranking masters and first-grade spiritual officials. Naturally, the number of Taoist mansion chiefs is not
Other Taoist temples are comparable.
The Borneo Taoist Government can be described as a behemoth.
Qi Xuansu has nine chiefs and three high-ranking spiritual officers under him. The staff is fully staffed. However, as far as he knows, the real person in charge is not only full-staffed, but also super-staffed. Compared with the real person in charge, he is a little witch.
I saw a great witch.
Qi Xuansu met these people one by one. He was sure that there were nails planted by Wang Jiaohe in advance. This was the disadvantage of the internal struggle in the Taoist sect. There was me in you and you in me. It was difficult to tell the difference.
It was difficult for him to screen them one by one in person, but he could slowly investigate through Lu Yuting and Han Yongfeng.
When a person comes here for the first time and wants to gain power, in addition to the status given by the above, he also needs the support from below. The importance of close confidants is highlighted.
Both Lu Yuting and Han Yongfeng are capable and can be regarded as veteran bosses, so they can handle it well.
Of course, their name for coming down has nothing to do with sorting out the Taoist government in Borneo. Their main task on the surface is to deal with the infiltration of certain overseas forces into Borneo, so they can be regarded as imperial envoys in a sense, although they are directly under Qi Xuansu's control.
Leadership, but does not belong to the Borneo Taoist system.
This also reflects the complexity of Qi Xuansu's identity. Even though the entire Borneo Taoist House was rumored to have Qi Xuansu with the task of sorting out the Borneo Taoist House, Jin Que did not convey a word about this matter to the Borneo Taoist House. Instead, Qi Xuansu
The responsibility of combating overseas forces was clearly notified by Jinque to the top brass of the Borneo Provincial Government.
In other words, Qi Xuansu is the master of Cihang
One of the "partial deputy governors" who was specifically responsible for this matter was responsible for cooperating with the Jiutang operation on behalf of the local government.
It has to be said that Qi Xuansu has a heavy burden on his shoulders and a lot of pressure.
The good news is that over time, other people will be sent to Borneo by Jiutang one after another, both at the deputy hall leader level and at the principal level. In name, they will implement the relevant arrangements of Master Cihang at the joint meeting.
, can help Qi Xuansu share the pressure.
Qi Xuansu did not put on a big show, reject people thousands of miles away, nor did he pretend to be approachable. He just said a few casual remarks, nothing surprising or impressive.
Qi Xuansu, who had just arrived, naturally did not talk about specific issues. He mainly talked about some relatively boring things, such as what the future will be like, and that everyone is a whole and must work together.
The principals were also very considerate. No matter what they were thinking in their hearts, on the surface they were all very excited and excited. They seemed to be moved by Qi Xuansu's words.
After Qi Xuansu finished his speech, a manager named Liu Yongzhen asked Qi Xuansu for instructions, "Second seat, can we prepare the dinner?"
This should have been Ke Qingqing's responsibility, but like Qi Xuansu, Ke Qingqing is new here and is not familiar with various affairs. Liu Yongzhen was the secretary of the second deputy palace master and was left here, so many things are left to him for the time being.
Responsible.
Qi Xuansu glanced at the sky. He had just finished lunch and had to prepare for dinner. For those who didn't know, he thought that the whole Borneo Taoist government was doing nothing else.
Qi Xuansu asked, "What kind of dinner party?"
Liu Yongzhen explained, "Including the royal family of Dayu, envoys from other countries in Borneo, as well as some chieftains, businessmen, gentry, and special envoys from the Holy Court, representatives of the West Borneo Company, and envoys from Buddhism are all waiting to see me.
.”
Qi Xuansu knew clearly in his heart that these were local snake forces, and they had to look up to him.
The luncheon is mainly about meeting colleagues within the Taoist sect, while the dinner is about dealing with these local forces outside the Taoist sect, and it is an inevitable link.
Qi Xuansu nodded and said, "It's ready."
Liu Yongzhen said, "The specific scope and specifications of the dinner will have to be decided by the second person personally."
If the scope is small, Qi Xuansu may feel that he is not taken seriously. If the scope is large, Qi Xuansu may feel that he is being roasted on the fire, so it is more appropriate for Qi Xuansu to decide the specific specifications and scope himself.
Qi Xuansu thought for a while and said calmly, "Don't have too many people, don't have too few people, stick to the golden mean. Others will follow the old rules."
