After finally looking at the garden, Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu couldn't stay here for a few days. After all, the repairs hadn't been completed yet. Zhang Yuelu's mansion was also in Taishangfang, so they could go to her place to stay temporarily for a few days.
When Xiao Yin left, he was reluctant to leave. He happened to see a blank screen wall, so he left his calligraphy and drew a lifelike picture of Taoist riding an ox.
Xiao Yin's painting skills are extremely good, and it is definitely not what she said, she can't paint at all. She is good at calligraphy and painting, but she just wants to be lazy, so she deliberately draws some simple drawings on weekdays, firstly to save effort, and secondly.
He was trying to fool Qi Xuansu.
Many people mistakenly believe that the paintings of Zhongyuan tend to be freehand and are not realistic at all. In fact, this is a misunderstanding. It does not mean that the so-called freehand painting is not good, but that freehand painting does not require much painting skills as a support and is easy to get started. It is also known as literati painting.
Literati paintings and limericks are the same thing. The root of it is that Confucian scholars and officials have the right to speak. It does not represent professionalism, but represents power. People in high positions flaunt themselves by painting a few splash-ink landscapes, or flowers, birds, fish, insects, black
It’s all over the place, regardless of the image or the similarity in spirit, there’s no clear standard for whether it’s good or bad, it’s pretty much the same meaning, so naturally there are people who like it, and it’s suitable for the realization of power.
But if it's realistic, it can't be fooled. If it looks like it, if it doesn't look like it, it won't look like it. Structure, perspective, light, light and shade, distance, and near all need solid basic skills as support. How can those high-ranking people have time to study? And even if
Although the technique is proficient, this kind of painting is also very time-consuming and cannot be accomplished overnight like literati painting.
In fact, this is not only true of Confucianism, Taoism is no exception. Many Taoist priests love to write poems and can't stop writing them. However, their level is far inferior to that of real poets, and is slightly better than limericks. It's just because of their reputation that they can't stop writing poetry.
It’s just that people dare to expose it. It’s like the emperor’s new clothes in Western stories. ??
Xiao Yin claims that he cannot paint landscapes, which is somewhat ironic.
Zhang Yuelu's house is much smaller than that of Princess Xuanzhen's mansion, but it is well-kept and built according to the standards of Dazhenzhen's mansion. However, Zhang Yuelu usually lives in a house in Xuandu and rarely comes to Taishangfang.
, it seems somewhat deserted and unpopular.
Xiao Yin quickly fell in love with this place and didn't want to leave.
Early the next morning, Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu went out separately to visit their elders and colleagues.
Zhang Yuelu went to live with Master Cihang, and Qi Xuansu went to live with Master Donghua.
In addition, there are some bosses who are not directly subordinate to them, but they also need to keep in touch with each other and at least walk around, such as Qi Jiaozheng, Xu Dacheng, Yao Shu and others.
It focuses on a person's worldly feelings.
Of course, Qi Xuansu will not mention the matter of Nanyang United Trading Company, and there is no need to mention it. Everything is left unmentioned.
There are rumors that Yao Shu, the chief deputy head of Ziwei Hall, may replace Wang Jiaohe as the real person in charge of the Borneo Taoist House. This is also reasonable. It is time for the Yao family to have a real person in charge. Yao
Shu, as the chief deputy hall master of the first hall, can be said to be the first person among many chiefs, even the first person under Zhen Zhizhen, so it is reasonable for him to take over.
Some people also say that this is a good connection between Quanzhen Taoism. Yao Shu becomes the real person in charge of Borneo Taoist House, and Qi Xuansu succeeds Yao Shu as the chief deputy head of Ziweitang. In a few years, Earth Master
Ascension, Master Donghua came to power, Qi Xuansu was promoted to be the master of the Borneo Taoist House, and Yao Shu returned to Yujing to replace Master Donghua as the master of Ziweitang.
Change the left hand to the right hand, and then change the right hand to the left hand.
However, Qi Xuansu doesn't think it's that easy. His shortcoming is that he has too little qualifications. How can he be allowed to rise to the top in one step and directly become the chief deputy head of Ziwei Hall? And according to Tianshi, he will at least have to stay in Borneo for a long time.
There is no way that the position of chief and deputy head of Ziwei Hall will be empty for a year and just wait for him. There is no such reason.
In fact, Qi Xuansu is quite happy to see Yao Shu take over as the head of the Borneo Taoist Palace. After all, the two have interacted with each other and the impression is not bad. Qi Xuansu is afraid of sending a new palace leader who does not agree with his political views. Although Qi Xuansu has
With the support of Master Lan Da and the alliance with Xu Jiaorong, he has actually mastered the power of the Taoist government. Even if he faces the master of the government, he still has the qualifications and confidence to fight. But if he really wants to do this, the impact will be very bad.
It is best for people to live in harmony with each other.
This time around, Yao Shu was also the focus.
Yao Shu also understands this. Although he is about to be promoted to the real person, for now, both of them are chiefs and second-grade Taiyi Taoist priests. There is no way to say who has the upper hand over the other. It is still a matter of equality.
pay.
Even if Yao Shu really becomes the real person in charge of the Borneo Taoist House and becomes Qi Xuansu's nominal boss, the two of them are still partners in essence. If they really have a disagreement and break up, it won't be whatever the real person in charge says.
, it takes some fighting.
It is best to be able to reconcile the two.
The Taoist sect must consider this when arranging candidates. If the trouble is too ugly, one of them will be transferred.
But if the relationship is too good, it is not suitable. For example, Wang Jiaohe and Chen Shuhua had a relationship that couldn't be better. They were covering for each other, colluding with each other, working together internally and externally, and their interest alliance was comparable to that of a husband and wife. In the end, they caused such a big mess.
This is the same
should be taken into consideration.
Qi Xuansu traveled to many places in one day, Ziwei Hall, Huasheng Hall, and Tianji Hall. These are the three halls that belong to the sphere of influence of Quanzhen Tao. Qi Xuansu cannot leave any of them behind.
The remaining six halls, Tiangang Hall, Duzhi Hall, and Ancestral Temple Hall, are the three halls that belong to the sphere of influence of Zhengyi Dao. Then there are Beichen Hall, Shibo Hall, and Fengxian Hall, which are the sphere of influence of Taiping Dao.
There are three halls. In addition to Beichen Hall, Qi Xuansu only needs to go to Tiangang Hall to meet the real person Cihang.
There is also Master Qingwei in Beichen Hall, who has returned to Yujing from Fenglinzhou. After all, Qi Xuansu once served under Master Qingwei. He, an eighth-generation disciple, got his best military exploits under Master Qingwei, which is more or less the same.
Incense love. Although Qi Xuansu and Master Qingwei confronted each other in the end because of the matter of Yi Zangnozun, and the quarrel was not very good. Qi Xuansu originally decided not to see Master Qingwei, but Master Qingwei still relented on the matter of Li Tianzhen.
He also formed an alliance with Qi Xuansu. Qi Xuansu had to explain, so he finally decided to visit Master Qingwei.
According to common sense, these three people can't see each other if they want to, they need to make an appointment. However, Qi Xuansu has a special status and a special relationship. He really just wants to see him if he wants to. Even Qingwei Zhenren, who has a relatively distant relationship, can pass.
Li Zhuyu sent a message.
In this way, he has met all three great practitioners. ??
You can't say a wrong word, you have to be careful and cautious. This makes Qi Xuansu very tired.
On the third day, Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu left Yujing and headed to Wanxiang Taoist Palace.
Xiao Yin is also going home.
The Wanxiang Taoist Palace occupies a large area, covering the entire Ziwei City. Longmen Mansion was once the eastern capital of the two eastern and western capitals of Da Qi, juxtaposed with Xijing Mansion, and Ziwei City was the palace city of the eastern capital. The main hall of the Great Chao is among them.
It is called "Mingtang", which means "the hall of Ming politics and religion", and it is also the upper palace where countless Taoist priests of the fourth grade have visited.
Most of Ziwei City outside the scope of the Upper Palace is where the Lower Palace is located. Including the tutors and female crowns, there are at least tens of thousands of them. However, there are only a thousand or so who can successfully graduate from the two major exams every year.
People, and the rest have become ordinary Taoist people. Although Taoist people can become Taoist priests, the upper limit is the seventh-grade Taoist priest, which cannot be higher. And among these more than a thousand people, those who can go from the ninth-grade Taoist priest to the fourth-grade wine-offering Taoist priest may even
There are less than a hundred people. Those who can truly reach the second level of Taiyi Taoist priests are less than one hand.
Qi Xuansu is among this number, and he is the youngest, which is a big deal for the entire Wanxiang Dao Palace.
Strictly speaking, Wanxiang Taoist Palace is Qi Xuansu's natal family, so when he returns home this time, he will be treated very differently.
The Taoist palace has begun to publicize his deeds and inspire the children of the lower palace.
Qi Xuansu is the pride of Wanxiang Taoist Palace. As for Yue Liuli, Wan Xiuwu and others, who are they? Not familiar with them. There are too many children, how can they remember them all.
The last time Qi Xuansu came to the palace, he came with Zhang Yuelu, but that time it was Zhang Yuelu who saw him off, but this time the two of them went to study together.
The flying boat landed directly at Xingye Lake. There were already people waiting here. It was Zhang Kuxian and several other special Jinzi teachers.
The teachings in the Wanxiang Taoist Palace are divided into five levels: Tejin Jinzi teaching, Jinzi teaching, Yinqing teaching, orthodox teaching, and auxiliary teaching. Generally speaking, the third-grade Youyi Taoist corresponds to the Tejin Jinzi teaching, and the fourth-grade Jijiu Taoist corresponds to
The golden and purple teachings, the fifth-grade Taoist priests correspond to the silver-green teachings, the sixth-grade Taoist priests correspond to the orthodox teachings, and the seventh-grade Taoist priests correspond to the auxiliary teachings.
In the past, when Qi Xuansu was in the lower palace, the person who was responsible for their daily life and various chores was the assistant teacher Xi, and the one who was responsible for teaching was the Zhengjiao Xi. Teacher Yinqing generally did not teach, and was mainly responsible for handling various lower palace affairs.
After arriving at the Shang Palace, Jinzi teachers were responsible for various chores, but they did not do everything as personally as the assistant teachers, and they also had a number of low-quality teachers under them.
Professor Tejin Jinzi is mainly responsible for teaching, and the assistants occasionally teach, and mostly deal with various Taoist palace affairs.
As Zhang Yuelu's clan uncle and a high-ranking official in the Taoist palace, and Qi Xuansu's nominal master, it was natural for the two of them to take the initiative to show respect.
After all, it is not his own one-third of an acre of land. This land will be placed in Borneo. The third-grade Youyi Taoist priest can only stand and report to Qi Xuansu. After all, after all the cleaning, who does not respect Chief Qi? He is also in charge of financial power.
Who doesn’t ask for help from him?
Now that people are under the eaves, they have to bow their heads.
No matter what your job rank is, when you come to the Wanxiang Taoist Palace, you have to follow the rules of the Wanxiang Taoist Palace. Once you become a student, you must salute when you see the teacher, you are not allowed to bring a secretary, you must do everything by yourself, and you can no longer provide food for yourself.
To open my mouth, I have to go to class on time, take turns being the squad leader, and manage housekeeping.
Not to mention, it is difficult to go from extravagance to frugality, and Qi Xuansu is somewhat unaccustomed to it. At this time, he misses Chen Jianchou very much. If there is anything, just give him an order. However, gains and losses always go hand in hand. Without Chen Jianchou,
There is no need to worry about paperwork, so it feels much more relaxed.
After greeting each other, Zhang Kuxian led Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu to see the Grand Master of the Palm Palace.
Qi Xuansu looked at Shang Gong in the distance and couldn't help but secretly sighed, "I saw how charming Shang Gong is. I expected Shang Gong to be like this when I saw her."
