Chapter 6 The wedding is coming

Qi Xuansu spent seven days in seclusion this time.

During these seven days, some minor and minor things happened.

First of all, Xiao Yin ate the dragon meat brought back by Qi Xuansu and the red fruits given by the Heavenly Master. After eating so many treasures from heaven and earth, he was finally going to "evolve".

After all, Xiao Yin is only in the infinite stage, not an immortal, so these things are more than enough.

On the second day after returning from Jinque, Xiao Yin began to sleep soundly. Wu Niang looked at it and said that it was nothing serious, and that she would just wait until she was full of sleep.

Master Qi Da said this, and others naturally felt relieved.

Everyone knows that this little aunt is the "baby" of Zhenren Qi and Zhenren Zhang. They really can't afford her shortcomings.

Secondly, Jinque allocates a mansion to Wuniang in Xuandu according to the rules. It is a neighbor of Jiang Dazhen. Wuniang can move there or not. It all depends on Wuniang’s own wishes. Jinque There will be no coercion.

Wu Niang went to have a look and came back.

This has become normal, and the Taoist people in charge of Xuandu Residence are not surprised. Lan Daren and other masters of the mansion are all in Xuandu Residence. They don’t come back even once a year, and they are all empty. Pingzhang Dazhen People cannot live without it, but they cannot live without it.

In addition, Jinque also needs to provide Wuniang with a secretary.

This candidate can be directly appointed by Jinque, but it involves too much personal privacy and is unreliable. If Master Pingzhang is not satisfied, he will directly replace him. Therefore, under normal circumstances, Jinque will respect the opinions of Master Pingzhang. When Zhang Dazhen has no objections and doesn't care, Jin Que will appoint him.

Wuniang did not let Jinque appoint one, but decided to choose one herself.

She actually didn't like having people follow her. She had long been used to being alone, but the seat couldn't be left vacant, so she picked left and right, and finally signed up Xiao Yin.

In terms of rank, Xiao Yin is a third-grade Youyi Taoist priest, who is just on the same level as the secretaries, which is perfect. And there are no other restrictions for secretaries. The key is to satisfy Pingzhang Daren himself. Jinque was naturally a little shocked, but Still agreed.

As for whether the secretary will serve Pingzhang Daren in the future, or Qi Daren will take care of the children in turn, it's hard to say.

Xiao Yin was still sleeping, but he suddenly had a formal position and became a secretary.

However, according to the rules, wild Taoist priests like Qiniang, Zhou Mengyao, and Qi Muyu will not be given any treatment or make any demands. This was the case with Xiao Yin in the past. But if they are granted formal positions and receive treatment, they must go In Wanxiang Taoist Palace, the upper palace study was conducted once by the fourth-grade Jijiu Taoist priest and again by the second-grade Taiyi Taoist priest. Therefore, Xiao Yin could not escape this time and had to go to the Wanxiang Taoist Palace to study. He just transferred from the lower palace. Go to the palace.

This is a huge difference. Normally, one can only become a ninth-level Taoist priest after leaving the lower palace. One has to advance five levels before he can go to the upper palace to study. Xiao Yin can do it in one step.

The last thing, Zhang Yuelu's matter was finally settled.

Although in the past history of the Taoist sect, it seems very unusual and a little too fast, but with the precedents of Li Changge and Qi Xuansu, it makes people feel that it is not abnormal. In short, Zhang Yuelu was successfully promoted from the chief deputy head of the Borneo Taoist House to The chief deputy head of Tiangang Hall.

The change from chief to chief is still at the level of a second-grade Taiyi Taoist priest, and has not been promoted to the real person. Theoretically, this is a flat promotion. But in reality, it is a high promotion, and the power in his hands is different. Borneo The chief of the Taoist government can only influence Borneo, while the chief of Tiangangtang can influence the Taoist sect.

The time for Zhang Yuelu to go to Beijing has probably been determined, because Xu Jiaorong, who succeeded Zhang Yuelu, is in Nanyang, which saves a lot of time to take office. Ziweitang doesn't have to send people there, so it won't take too long, about seven days later. Zhang Yuelu will come to Yujing and return to the familiar Tiangang Hall with Lin Yuanmiao, who was promoted to the third deputy hall master.

In this way, Zhang Yuelu is the number two figure in Tiangang Hall, and the so-called "Little Master Hall" is truly worthy of its name.

The time for Zhang Yuelu to go to Beijing was decided, and the date for their wedding was also decided. Master Donghua personally chose a good and auspicious day.

Then the invitations started to be made and sent to the hands of guests from all walks of life.

Many people know that invitations are indispensable. This is a matter of etiquette. Moreover, time is tight, and some people are far away. It does not mean that if you send invitations today, they will arrive tomorrow. It takes a lot of time to come and go. Arrange these things when the date is near, and set aside enough time.

Guests who are far away, such as Huangfuji, Tantaiying, Huen'ahan, Wutu, Huangfuxi, Wunuulatu, etc. who have worked together before, including the three giants of Xidaomen, Tantai Zhenxiao and Gong Fu, Huangfu Zhao, if they don't come back, they still have to let you know.

Even Li Changge cannot be left behind. In any case, Qi Xuansu did not openly quarrel with Li Changge. It is my business to send the invitation or not, and it is your business to come or not.

These are just some of Qi Xuansu’s connections.

You know, marriage is not a matter of two people, but a matter of two families.

No matter how great Qi Xuansu's reputation is, it is not greater than Zhenren Donghua, nor is it greater than the Zhang family.

As the saying goes, don’t look at the monk’s face to look at the Buddha’s face. If you don’t look at Qi Xuansu’s face, you must look at the face of Donghua Master, Cihang Master, and Tianshi Master, right?

As a result, half of the Taoist sects will be alarmed. Even the national master, the earthly master, Emperor Daxuan, and the great master of the Xidao sect will not come in person for the sake of the heavenly master, but will send people to congratulate him.

This is a much bigger battle than the original apprenticeship ceremony.

Not to mention some unrelated people, whether they want to please or follow the trend, they will rush to the door to congratulate you even if there is no invitation.

Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu, as the protagonists, are busy to death just to entertain guests. Those ordinary guests can be taken care of by others. Real people, you know that real people must meet them in person, right? Otherwise, they will be said to be... Too arrogant, so the best man also has a heavy responsibility.

To put it bluntly, when other people get married and don’t have such a high position, they naturally don’t have such a big battle. By the time they have Qi and Zhang’s status, they are already parents.

No matter how you look at it, this is a big project.

Because there were too many visitors and the battle was too big, it was not something Qi Xuansu could handle alone.

Master Donghua proposed to form a temporary group to coordinate various matters. Because Master Donghua was too busy and had no time to spare, he proposed that Zhang Jucheng be the convener of the group.

After the two parties communicated, Zhang Jucheng happily accepted the order, handed over the Taoist matters to Chief Lei Xiaohuan, and headed to Yujing.

In addition, he also informed his daughter Zhang Yuyue not to do nothing all day long, but to go to Shangqing Town to pick up Zhang Kuqi and Tantai Qiong, and go to Yujing together. All the children of the Zhang family who are free will go to Yujing.

Those who don’t know still think that Zhang Jucheng married his daughter.

Of course, those who know better will not think so, because this is no longer as simple as a marriage, but more like an alliance meeting between two forces. It is hard to say whether it is to worship heaven and earth or to make an alliance based on blood.

When Qi Xuansu finally came out of seclusion, this was the situation he faced.

Fortunately, Qi Xuansu was not on the list of members of this temporary group. Probably because he was afraid that Zhang Yuelu would "make trouble", he simply kicked out both parties involved, leaving Zhang Yuelu unable to say anything.

The names on the list are all elders. In addition to Zhang Jucheng, there are also Donghua Zhenren, Cihang Zhenren, Wuniang, Zhang Wuliang, Qiniang, Zhang Kuqi, etc. Even Tianshi is named, although Tianshi I certainly won't worry about this kind of thing personally, but I will be in charge of the overall situation in name only and be the honorary convener.

From top to bottom, it is full of bureaucracy.

However, it is also reasonable that the aristocratic family holding power is a little better than the royal family, but it is still limited. It is still inevitable that family affairs are state affairs, and there is no distinction between public and private matters.

At this time, Qi Xuansu didn't know what to do, and it seemed like there was no need to do anything.

So, he went to Zhenren Donghua.

When Qi Xuansu saw Master Donghua, the master was burying his head in a pile of files, holding a red pen, and grading various official documents at a speed several times faster than Mo Qingdi's script. It's calm and unhurried, which is amazing. Only immortals have such energy. If it were an ordinary person, he would be dizzy and confused.

It can be seen from this that Donghua Zhenren, like Tianshi, is almost in name only.

Master Donghua knew that Qi Xuansu was coming, so he finally put down his ink brush, signaled Gong Jiaojun to step back, took a sip of the tea beside him, and then said: "I have become a pseudo-immortal, which is good."

Qi Xuansu said: "This disciple is here not only because he has finally become a pseudo-immortal, but also because it is related to his marriage."

Master Donghua said: "You should go to Master Feiyuan for these matters. I have many things to do and I can't take care of these."

Qi Xuansu said: "I'm afraid Uncle Zhang won't be able to make the decision."

Master Donghua was a little curious: "He can't even make the decision? Then let's talk and listen."

Qi Xuansu pondered for a while and said: "The four people in Gaotang are the parents of both men and women. Qingxiao's side is easy to talk about, but I don't know who my parents are. I can only replace my father with my master, but my mother's position is still vacant..."

Master Donghua said: "Isn't there Qiniang?"

Qi Xuansu smiled bitterly: "I asked Qiniang, and she said that on the day of the wedding, even half of the Taoist officials would come to watch the ceremony. With her status, she is not suitable to appear on such an occasion, let alone stand in front of the public. , life and death are unwilling to come. I have tried to persuade her many times, but to no avail."

Master Donghua was silent for a moment and said, "Qiniang's concerns are not unreasonable. What do you think?"

Qi Xuansu finally figured it out and revealed his true intention: "This is what I think. Master Cihang is Qingxiao's master, and he is not an outsider. Can he replace Qiniang? Qiniang also agreed."

For this reason, Master Donghua still couldn't tell. He looked strange. After a long time, he finally said: "You are the only one who thinks too much."

When Qi Xuansu saw that Master Donghua did not refuse directly, he hit the snake with a stick and said: "Master, do you agree?"

Master Donghua said: "I'm afraid this matter cannot be decided by us master and disciple. The key depends on Master Cihang's wishes. As long as Master Cihang agrees, then I have no objection."

Qi Xuansu smiled and said, "Okay, we'll make an agreement."
