Chapter 11: Potential, rich and noble can be overlooked
Zhang Yuelu took the official letter, stood up from the dressing table and came to the outside.
Mu Jin naturally followed Zhang Yuelu to the outside room.
So only Qi Xuansu was left. Anyway, he was no longer so embarrassed.
Qi Xuansu sat down where Zhang Yuelu had been and found that his dagger "Qingxiao" was placed on the dressing table.
Before meeting Zhang Yuelu, he first went to the residence arranged for him by Lei Xiaohuan and put all his luggage and weapons in the residence. He only brought a handful of "Qingyuan" that he never left with him.
Because I have to go back to get some wine.
It seems that when Zhang Yuelu helped him take off his outer robe, he discovered the dagger hanging on his waist. He could even imagine Zhang Yuelu sitting alone in front of the dressing table and gently stroking the dagger.
After all, the name of this dagger is "Qingyuan", which is taken from the "Qing" character of "Qingxiao" and the "Yuan" character of "Tianyuan". It means a lot to the two of them.
Qi Xuansu put away "Qingyuan" and carefully arranged his appearance in the mirror before getting up and going to the outside room.
At this time, Zhang Yuelu was sitting behind the desk, and the official letter was placed on the table in front of her.
Qi Xuansu asked: "What's wrong with Master Cihang?"
"Nothing, it's just about your personnel transfer." Zhang Yuelu said lightly, "From now on, you are no longer a disciple of the Zhengdao, but a disciple of the Quanzhen Dao."
Qi Xuansu already knew this and was not surprised at all.
Zhang Yuelu looked at him and said, "It seems you already knew this."
"Are you unhappy?" Qi Xuansu asked.
Zhang Yuelu said: "There's nothing to be unhappy about. It's just that Master obviously knew about this a long time ago, but deliberately didn't tell me. It's really a shame on you."
Qi Xuansu had known for a long time that Zhang Yuelu was very thoughtful and it was not easy to fool her. He lowered his tone and said, "I'm still unhappy. It's probably because Master Donghua and Master Cihang have communicated with each other in advance. No one else is qualified. As for me,
This is really flattering me. I have never even met Master Donghua, and I only met Master Cihang once. Masters have their own considerations, so why would they care about what I think.
"
It is undeniable that what Qi Xuansu said was both emotion and reason. Even Zhang Yuelu couldn't find anything wrong with it.
Zhang Yuelu sighed: "Of course I know it's not your fault, but I always feel that Master Donghua has some plot to make you a chess piece."
Qi Xuansu was moved in his heart, but he still said: "How can I, a little person like me, be worthy of the great master Donghua's calculations?"
Zhang Yuelu was very thoughtful, but the information he got was seriously insufficient. It was impossible for a clever woman to make a fool of herself, and it was impossible to guess the truth out of thin air. She said: "I hope so, you still have to pay more attention."
Qi Xuansu nodded in agreement.
Zhang Yuelu hesitated for a moment and then said: "There is one more thing. When it is over here, we will return to Yujing. Master wants to see you."
This was beyond Qi Xuansu's expectation. He was startled, and then he felt guilty. It took him a long time to ask Ai Ai: "Master Cihang... what did she do to see me?"
Zhang Yuelu looked at Qi Xuansu with a half-smile but asked, "What did you say you were doing?"
Although Qi Xuansu had met Master Cihang a long time ago, he did not know the identity of Master Cihang at that time, and Master Cihang did not know his identity either. It is the ignorant who are fearless. But it is different now. He knows Cihang.
Master Hang's identity, Master Cihang also knew his identity, he was really a little timid.
"Can I not see you? Or I won't go back to Yujing." Qi Xuansu asked.
Zhang Yuelu emphasized his tone and asked again: "What do you think?"
Qi Xuansu sighed helplessly: "I can't count your relatives, friends and elders here with two hands. They all have good status. Nine out of ten are dissatisfied with me. I have to meet them one by one. It's really a hard job."
Logically speaking, it would be inappropriate for Qi Xuansu to say these words in front of Zhang Yuelu, but Zhang Yuelu not only didn't care, but actually agreed.
She said softly: "There is no other way, just be more patient."
After Qi Xuansu complained, he then reflected on himself: "But then again, it's still my fault."
"Back then, the founder of the Zongheng family failed to lobby the King of Qin for the first time. When he returned home, his wife did not cheat, his sister-in-law did not work for him, and his parents did not talk to him. When he wore the seal of the Six Kingdoms alone, he had overwhelming power in the world. At that time, the world
The greatness of the people, the majesty of the princes, and the power of the advisers all wanted to make decisions. He passed by Longmen Mansion, and his parents heard about it. They cleared the palace and cleared the roads, set up music and drinks, and greeted him in the suburbs for thirty miles. His wife looked sideways and listened.
And listen; my sister-in-law is walking like a snake and prostrates herself, bowing four times and kneeling down to thank her."
"How could my sister-in-law be so arrogant at first and so humble later? Just because she is a high-ranking person, she has a lot of money. If you are poor, your parents will not have children, and if you are rich, your relatives will be afraid of you. In this world, how can you be so careless about your status and wealth?"
"To put it bluntly, I still don't live up to expectations. At my age, Xuansheng has not yet integrated the Taoist sect, but he is still comparable to the deputy head master. If I had half the ability of Xuansheng, I would never be like this."
Zhang Yuelu joked: "When you become the head master and then go to Yunjin Mountain, my parents will clear the palace and clear the roads, and Zhang Le will hold a banquet and welcome thirty miles in the suburbs. When the time comes, let Zhang Yuyue snake and prostrate, and kneel down with four bows. As for thanking you."
Of course I looked sideways and listened."
Qi Xuansu smiled and said, "Did you agree?"
"What did you promise?" Zhang Yuelu asked.
Qi Xuansu smiled and said nothing.
Zhang Yueluzi reacted and realized that he had made a mistake. He couldn't help but blush slightly and spat: "Wait until you see my master before you say anything else."
Qi Xuansu murmured to himself: "Speaking of which, Master Cihang and I can be considered old acquaintances..."
Zhang Yuelu joked: "Then you can talk about friendship like this after we meet. I have no objection."
Qi Xuansu didn't have the courage to do so, and said sarcastically: "I just want to tell you behind your back. When I meet Master Cihang, I can only listen to the teachings and instructions. At most, I can talk about our deep love and righteousness."
Zhang Yuelu rolled his eyes at him: "Who has a deep friendship with you?"
Zhang Yuelu has always been quite majestic. Such a young woman's posture is very rare. Even Mu Jin feels strange. But seeing that the two of them are getting tired of each other, Mu Jin, who has been watching, really can't stand it and can't bear it.
Just cough lightly.
Zhang Yuelu remembered that Mu Jin was still there, cleared his throat, and returned to his normal tone: "If there is nothing else..."
Qi Xuansu took the initiative to stand up and said, "I'll take my leave first."
The two people's eyes met again, and Mu Jin couldn't help but roll her eyes.
Although Zhang Yuelu usually looks calm and relaxed, she is still a novice when it comes to relationships. Coupled with the blessing of meeting again after a long separation, Zhang Yuelu at this time is just like a young woman who is in love.
The appearance of Deputy Hall Master Zhang.
When Qi Xuansu left, Mu Jin couldn't help but said: "Qingxiao, what do you like about him?"
Zhang Yuelu glanced at her: "I don't know either. Where can I explain this kind of thing clearly?"
Mu Jin could only sigh helplessly.
She still lost to Qi Xuansu.
However, compared with the previous unwillingness, this time he was somewhat convinced. Just because Qi Xuansu dared to risk his life for Zhang Yuelu, he was already better than countless others.
On the other side, Qi Xuansu always felt like a thief when he left Zhang Yuelu's residence. Fortunately, there was no one around, which made him feel a little more at ease.
When he left Zhang Yuelu's yard, he gathered his mood and remembered something.
That was the death of Wan Xiuwu.
According to Pei Xiaolou, Yue Liuli's first suspect was Qi Xuansu. It was only because he was a "dead man" at the time that the suspicion was forcibly cleared. However, with his reappearance, Yue Liuli's side was definitely not convinced.
If you give up and let it go, Wuxu Palace will probably bring this matter up again.
For Qi Xuansu, this is a big trouble and he needs to think of a countermeasure.
As for why Qi Xuansu did not discuss the matter with Zhang Yuelu, the main reason was that he did not want to embarrass Zhang Yuelu. Given Zhang Yuelu's character, it was already an act against his will to conceal the killing of Wan Xiuwu for him. How could he bear to put Zhang Yuelu in a dilemma again.
However, this kind of matter involves Wuxu Palace, which is not something Qi Xuansu can handle alone. So Qi Xuansu decided to go to Pei Xiaolou to discuss countermeasures. After all, this real person knew him well and could talk about everything, and Pei Xiaolou was a long-lived person.
Being from Chongyang Palace, it is easy to intervene in this matter.
Thinking of this, Qi Xuansu went directly to Pei Xiaolou's residence.
