On the way to the destination, Qi Xuansu felt somewhat emotional.
They are both fourth-grade Taoist priests. Yao Pei captured Taoist priests on Difei Mountain, Zhang Yuelu captured cult demons in various places, and he captured the bustard in the Imperial City. The gap is indeed a bit big. It is conceivable that if there is no accident, the gap will be even wider in the future.
Lai Da. However, Qi Xuansu is not completely without opportunities. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that something big may happen in the Imperial Capital. This is his opportunity. As long as he can seize this opportunity, he may be able to reach a higher level.
It is true that the Taoist sect has a suspension system, but the Taoist sect has already considered this. For certain special circumstances, there is also a temporary grade, or job grade.
The so-called job grade is not the actual grade. To use a simple analogy, someone is awarded the second-grade deputy palace master, which means that only when he is the deputy palace master, he is regarded as a second-grade Taiyi Taoist priest. Once he leaves the job, he is no longer there.
This grade returns to the original Taoist grade. But a real second-grade Taiyi Taoist priest, regardless of whether he has a relevant position or not, is a second-grade Taiyi Taoist priest. Even if he is demoted to a chief minister, he is still a second-grade Taiyi Taoist priest.
Another point is that it is always relatively easy to promote and demote positions. With sufficient reasons, the deputy palace master and deputy palace master can be assigned to the level of deacon, the head of the palace, the master of the palace, and the master of the palace can be assigned to the level of principal, and the deputy master of the church can be assigned to the first level.
The real person can arrange the deputy palace master, deputy hall master, and assistant master level. The grand master or the rotating master can arrange the master, master, and palace master level.
The promotion and lowering of ranks is very serious. The third-grade Youyi Taoist priest was previously under the jurisdiction of Ziweitang. The real person and above must be reviewed by Jinque. To use a simple analogy, Zhang Yuelu can promote Qi Xuansu to deacon, but cannot promote him from
A seventh-grade Taoist priest was promoted to a sixth-grade Taoist priest. All she could do was repay Qi Xuansu's merits.
This is where the difference lies.
Temporary grades are generally used in wartime. As the saying goes, heroes emerge in troubled times, and a large number of outstanding young people will emerge to rise to high positions. However, the suspension of years system will seriously hinder their promotion. It is already very unsightly for a fourth-grade wine-sacrifice Taoist priest to be the deputy palace master.
Well, if a fourth-grade wine-offering Taoist priest directly becomes the second-ranked, chief, or even the head of a house, it will be even more ugly. The subordinates are of a higher rank than the superiors. This will undoubtedly cause confusion and cause many problems for the superiors to command their subordinates.
unnecessary trouble.
Therefore, the job ranking system came into being, which would not be granted normally. Even Zhang Yuelu was not awarded the position of third-grade deputy palace master. Instead, he served as deputy palace master with the rank of fourth-rank wine-sacrifice Taoist priest.
If the Taoist sect breaks into chaos and starts to break the convention and use job grades, and Qi Xuansu makes great achievements, then Donghua Zhenren, who controls Ziweitang, can completely grant Qi Xuansu a job grade, that is, Qi Xuansu himself will still be a fourth-grade Taoist priest and enjoy the fourth-grade sacrifice.
The treatment of a wine Taoist priest, who is also a third-grade deputy palace master or a third-grade deputy hall master, as long as he is still in his position
Above, he is a third-grade Youyi Taoist priest, so that he can exercise the power of deputy palace master and overwhelm his subordinates in terms of rank.
When the years and seniority are sufficient, the official rank will be granted. Then there is the meritorious service. Generally, the higher the position, the easier it is to perform meritorious service. Take Qi Xuansu as an example, if he can solve a major case of fraud in the name of Wanxiang Taoist Palace, as a
Shi Bingyun, who is directly subordinate to his superior, will naturally receive credit for his good leadership and advance to a higher position in advance, which will greatly benefit his future future.
However, as Qi Xuansu himself said, the meal must be eaten one bite at a time, and the road must be walked step by step. A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step, so let’s start by sweeping away the ashes in front of you.
In the blink of an eye, the "ajar" business was in sight. Qi Xuansu waved his hand: "Don't let anyone go."
The spiritual officials acted quickly and soon the place was surrounded by water.
Zhou Lingguan took the lead and broke in through the door, while Qi Xuansu walked quietly at the end.
It is true that Qi Xuansu has never eaten pork, but has seen pigs running away. It is true that this is the first time for Qi Xuansu to be the real person in charge of power. However, he has come into contact with many high-quality Taoist priests, and he has a rough idea of what a superior person should be like. He just needs to imitate him.
In the past, "ajar doors" referred to the lowest-class brothels. After going there, there was no tea party to listen to music, and they just did that. Today, "ajar doors" refers to brothels without paperwork. In fact,
The standard is not low. For example, the green space where Qi Xuan came here is not inferior to the Chunfeng Building. Not to mention the decoration inside, just the cornices, lanterns, gate towers, screen walls, and glass windows outside are enough.
It can be seen that the courtyard is very large, and the ground is paved with neat blue bricks. Because it has already entered autumn, there are various chrysanthemums on display, and there is a pot every few steps. Not to mention the lights inside the building, even the courtyard is also brightly lit.
However, Qi Xuansu had been to Zifu after all and had seen the world, so he was not blinded. He just glanced at it casually with an indifferent attitude.
At this time, the people in the yard had been alarmed. Many disheveled prostitutes wanted to escape, but were restrained by the guarding spiritual officer. They squatted on the ground holding their heads. In addition, you could see the windows on the second and third floors by looking up.
, many women are looking outside, their hair is messy, their expressions are panicked, their clothes are half-covered, their snow-white skin is looming, and some sensitive parts are indescribable, which is really dazzling.
As soon as Qi Xuansu entered the door, he smelled a strong smell of powder. It didn't make him, a heavenly being, dizzy, but it was also pungent. There was no need to give orders, there was already a spiritual officer to give it to him.
Qi Xuansu brought a chair and placed it behind him.
Qi Xuansu lamented the benefits of power for several times. He did not pretend to be polite and declined, but sat down leisurely.
After a while, the local bustard, "surrounded" by two spiritual officials, came to Qi Xuansu. She was still calm and took the initiative to say a blessing to Qi Xuansu: "Greetings to the Master."
People who work in this business have very sharp eyesight and rich experience. There is no need for Qi Xuansu to register his own number. He can guess Qi Xuansu's general status just from the attitude of the surrounding spiritual officials towards Qi Xuansu.
As for why you call yourself a mage, there are also considerations. If Qi Xuansu is just a fifth-grade Taoist priest, calling him a mage will not offend anyone, but it will mean flattery, just like ordinary people will call a general in black when they see an officer. The core concept is that there is more etiquette.
It’s not strange. The reason why you don’t call it Gao Gong comes from common sense. How could Master Gao Gong come to such a place in person?
Therefore, there is an old saying that it is difficult to become an adult without being impoverished, without attacking the old innocence. Many high-quality Taoist priests who have spent their whole lives in the study are far inferior to these low-level people in terms of conduct. However, the big shots in the Taoist sect highly respect this kind of "old innocence"
, it is called the heart of a child, so the reason why there are so many Taoist priests in Huayuan is not a problem of the Taoist priests themselves, but a problem caused by the deliberate guidance of someone above.
Qi Xuansu said: "I am Qi Xuansu, the newly appointed Taoist priest of the Imperial Palace. I have been ordered by the second deputy palace owner to rectify the atmosphere of the Imperial Palace. You should understand what it means specifically. I won't talk nonsense. Let your people get dressed.
Everyone come to the courtyard, otherwise my people will invite you one by one, which will be rude to the beautiful lady."
The old bustard was the most tactful, and no matter how supportive he was, he did not dare to confront her head-on. He hurriedly said: "Master, please sit down for a moment, and I will call them right away."
After that, seeing that the two spiritual officials beside him had no intention of stopping him, he said another blessing, stepped back quickly, called a few confidants and asked them to go and call the girls.
Another very decent woman presented Qi Xuansu with this year's Mingqian Maojian. .??.??
Qi Xuansu didn't even look at it, but the spiritual official standing next to him stretched out his hand to stop him.
The woman smiled: "It's just a cup of tea, the way to treat guests."
Lingguan said expressionlessly: "It's against the rules."
The woman showed just the right amount of admiration, as if she was seeing Master Qingtian.
It's a pity that the charming look was given to a blind man. From the beginning to the end, Qi Xuansu didn't take a second look.
After a while, the Yingying and Yanyans got dressed and came from the building to the courtyard one after another, making it very lively.
In fact, they are not very afraid of investigation because
It is not a capital crime to operate without a license. At most, you will have to do hard labor for a period of time, and then when the limelight has passed, you can return to your old business. As for why these women don’t have documents, the key is that applying for documents also costs money. A business with a business
Of course it is not as good as buying and selling without capital.
Naturally, the women also saw Qi Xuansu, the only one who could sit in the room. Normally, they would have taken a few more glances and displayed their charming and charming skills. However, at this time, Qi Xuansu was surrounded by spiritual officials in black armor.
There was a cold and murderous aura that made them lower their heads one after another, not daring to look directly at him.
Zhou Lingguan came to Qi Xuansu with his sword on his waist. He also held two thick books in his hand, one was an account book and the other was a roster.
Qi Xuansu ordered: "Roll the names according to the roster."
Zhou Lingguan responded: "Yes."
After less than half an hour, the roll call was completed, with no more than one person and no less than one person.
Qi Xuansu did not panic and asked again: "Have you found the darkroom or dungeon?"
That day in Jinling Mansion, he accidentally entered the dungeon of a hotel.
Soon, a spiritual official came to report and discovered a very secret entrance to the dungeon.
After all, these brothels are not secret associations that have been battling with the Taoist sect for many years. How can they hide some tricks from the Taoist sect's spiritual officials?
Hearing this, the already worried Madam was suddenly struck by thunder, her face lost all color and she almost collapsed to the ground.
Qi Xuansu said: "Go and check carefully."
Some spiritual officials came to support him.
He himself is a heavenly being, even Zhao Fuan is no match for him, so why does he need human protection? Could it be that the Yingying Yanyan in this courtyard can still eat him?
In fact, these women are very sensible and know that something big has happened. Those women who sell themselves are okay, and they are quite interested in watching the fun. After all, they are often exploited by brothels, and the management and others involved are already confused.
About a stick of incense later, Zhou Lingguan, headed by Zhou Lingguan, brought out another group of women. Strictly speaking, they were all half-grown girls. Compared with the prostitutes who had already acquired a romantic and charming look, these little girls came out.
is still in a state of confusion.
Qi Xuansu said calmly: "If you run a business without documents, and you kidnap women and force them into prostitution, the crime will be increased to one level."
The madam couldn't bear the pressure and fell to her knees directly: "Master, I'm wronged, I'm wronged, how could the slave family kidnap women? These, these are all bought."
Qi Xuansu finally smiled and leaned forward slightly: "Where did you buy it from?"
