When Zhang Yuelu went to meet the people from Ziguang Society, Qi Xuansu was preparing to meet the people from Qingping Society. One "purple" and one "green" were symmetrical.
With the relationship between Qi Xuansu and Qingpinghui, there is no need to play any games. In other words, the three acts of revenge are the best way to surrender, and the stolen goods are shared together. They are all our own.
When Qi Xuansu was rectifying the atmosphere in Dongcheng, he deliberately made things difficult for a legal monastery called "Leng Feiyuan". It was said that behind this monastery was Mr. Xie Ge's background.
In other words, the Xie family of Mr. Xie Ge is indeed one of Leng Feiyuan's backstage. The reason why it is said to be one is because the Xie family values their family reputation and is unwilling to directly touch such business, but as an official in the Imperial Capital
The expenses were high, and the Xie family really needed such a business, so they needed a cover. So another family, the Yang family, also became one of the owners of Leng Feiyuan. On weekdays, if there was anything to do with officials or Taoists, it was usually done by
The Yang family came forward.
The Yang family can barely be regarded as a middle-class family in the Imperial City. Their ancestors also took root in Jinling Mansion, so they are considered family friends with the Xie family. In the last three generations of the family, they have served as minister of the Ministry of Industry, deputy imperial envoy of the capital, and minister of household affairs. In terms of power,
Naturally, the Yang family cannot be compared with the Xie family who has already joined the cabinet. However, it is precisely because the Yang family is only a middle-class family and does not need to pay so much attention to the face of the prime minister. There are many things that the Xie family does not bother to do, which just allows the Yang family to come forward. Later, Xie Ge always let
When my nephew married a daughter of the Yang family, he became an in-law, and the relationship between the two families became even closer.
Logically speaking, if something goes wrong in Leng Feiyuan, the Yang family should handle it, but the Yang family is not sure. After all, they are just a middle-class family. What is a high-class family? The elders of the pavilion and the kings of the clan are the top families.
Waiting for others, this Master Qi is a evil star. Neither the King of Liao nor the King of Langya County took much advantage from him. In the end, it was nothing. It was barely a tie, although there were two
The prince did not come forward in person, but it was a bit difficult for a middle-class family like them to deal with the notorious Master Qi.
There is no other way. The Yang family has no choice but to discuss it with the Xie family. It's just ordinary trivial matters. You care about your identity and won't come forward if you can. When encountering such a big matter, it would be inappropriate for you not to come forward.
The Xie family agreed very happily, saying that they would talk to Master Qi and it would be best not to start a war rashly.
The Yang family was relieved.
So Qi Xuansu received an invitation from Mr. Xie Ge and asked him to come to his house to talk.
Qi Xuansu happily accepted the appointment.
Although Qi Xuansu is trying to rectify the atmosphere, it does not mean that he has become a low-level person. Basically, he is still a Taoist, and he is a high-quality Taoist priest, a noble person.
things.
Even though the gentry were dissatisfied with many measures of the Taoist sect, they were still happy to make friends with the Taoist sect, talk empty talk, and add luster to the Taoist sect without the reputation of flattery and dependence. After all, this was discussing Taoism and fell into the category of academic exchanges.
, has nothing to do with anything else, the friendship between gentlemen is as light as water. Even the nobles of the clan are proud to marry the female crown of the Taoist sect, and they don’t even mind paying some price - the Taoist sect practices the system of monogamy and all concubines. If the nobles of the clan marry
Female Taoist priests will have no choice but to say goodbye to the life of hugging each other.
Therefore, it is normal for the Xie family to invite Qi Xuansu. Only kings with military power would like to use force to solve problems.
Qi Xuansu's visit to the Xie family can be said to be a tacit understanding between Qi Xuansu and Xie Linyuan. After showing the invitation, the Xie family had already made preparations and welcomed Qi Xuansu in with the courtesy of welcoming distinguished guests.
Under the guidance of an old housekeeper who seemed to have been loyal to the Xie family for generations, Qi Xuansu walked through the long and narrow courtyard at the first entrance and came to the second gate on the middle road of the mansion, commonly known as the second gate. A plaque hung high on the lintel.
Usually, I only go through the axillary door and leave the main door open to show solemnity. After passing this door and arriving at the main hall, Xie Linyuan has been waiting for a long time.
At this time, in addition to Xie Linyuan, there was also a handsome young man. After seeing Qi Xuansu, he took the initiative to salute and said: "Xie Buying has met Master Qi."
Qi Xuansu likes to do homework in advance. Before coming to the imperial capital, he read "Da Xuan Lv" specifically. This time he came to see Xie Linyuan and also did some homework. As one of the most important figures in the court, Xie Linyuan was not difficult to check various relevant information.
Qi Xuansu naturally knew who this person was, and he was Xie Linyuan's nephew. Xie Linyuan himself had no children, so he valued his nephew very much and cultivated him vigorously.
To be fair, this Young Master of the Xie family still has some weight in the Imperial City. He is about the same as Qin Hengde and others, but he is a bit inferior to Qi Xuansu. In many cases, a powerful background is useful, but when both parties have a powerful background, it is more useless.
It all depends on your own abilities. In this regard, except for Zhang, Li, and Yao, there are few who can compare with Qi Xuansu.
"I've met Brother Xie." Qi Xuansu returned the gesture.
Many times, everyone has to talk about their own affairs. Even if Qi Xuansu and Xie Linyuan were on equal terms, he would not be too proud in front of his peers. Just like Li Changge, his seniority is still above Li Ruoshui, but the latter is a senior advisor after all.
One of the real people, Li Changge and she are also equal
Don't treat yourself as an elder.
The three of them sat down separately and exchanged some greetings. Xie Linyuan had an easy-going attitude and pointed at Xie Buying: "Tian Yuan, if we meet each other outside the imperial capital in the future, I will definitely ask you to take care of me."
Although Xie Buying was married, she was still a concubine of the Hanlin Academy. This was a short-term position. Potential people were selected from among new scholars. She was a close minister of the emperor, responsible for drafting edicts, and had the responsibility of explaining scriptures to the emperor. At the same time, she also
Sending important ministers of the cabinet to teach and educate the common people in the Hanlin Academy can be said to be one of the important sources of assistant ministers in the cabinet. After all, those who are not Jinshi cannot enter the Hanlin, and those who are not Hanlin cannot enter the cabinet.
Speaking of which, Xie Buying had just gotten married and was named in the gold medal list. It can be said that she had a small degree and then a big degree. It was the time when she was proud of herself. But compared to Qi Xuansu, she was still a little behind.
Although the Hanlin officials were noble and had a bright future, after all, they had just entered the official career and there was still a long way to go. The Daxuan court resisted Xingjin and paid special attention to the experience of being sent to other places as officials. That is to say, the prime minister started from the state.
In the ministry, if you want to be the prime minister and assistant, no matter what your background, you have to start from the bottom. Therefore, if you want to join the cabinet, you generally need to have two or three times of experience as an official. It varies from person to person at the county level, but it can be done at the government level.
The level and state level are the only way to go. In short, it is from the central government to the local government, and then from the local government back to the central government, and so on.
Civil servants are no better than military attachés. Generals aged twenty or thirty are common, but prime ministers aged twenty or thirty are rare. Unless there is a big war, you have to slowly gain seniority. Entering the cabinet in your fifties is considered
Young people, even those in their forties are suspected of being lucky enough to get in.
Qi Xuansu is different. Although he is a Taoist priest, due to various "wars", his promotion trajectory is like that of a military attache. Because of his repeated "war exploits", he is promoted very quickly. Basically, he is promoted as fast as his ability is. Even if there are
The restrictions of the suspension system can also force promotions. Now that he is the fourth-grade real power leader, the next step is to become the third-grade deputy palace master.
This is also related to the system of the Taoist sect and the court. The Taoist sect does not contact ordinary people and is not involved in major matters such as people's livelihood. It is more about business and military matters. Even if you are younger and have no experience at the bottom, as long as you are talented enough, there is no big problem.
For example, if a champion marquis is granted the title of wolf at the age of twenty, it has nothing to do with whether he has experience in the lower ranks.
But the imperial court is different. It is related to the livelihood of thousands of people. Managing a big country is like cooking small dishes. If you don't have enough experience at the bottom, don't know the hardships of the people, don't know the crux of the current situation of the world, and don't know the rules of operation in the officialdom, there will be no way.
With enough experience, it is easy to take things for granted, or to be misguided in governance.
In heaven, you may be wantonly deceived by people below, so it is better to be mature and prudent.
When Qi Xuansu has been promoted to the third rank, Xie Buying may still be a middle-level official of about the fifth rank. If he happens to be in the same place as Qi Xuansu, he will naturally have to take care of him. After all, the county magistrate is not as good as the current manager. No matter how high Xie Linyuan is,
It's also far away in the Imperial Capital, so the help right in front of you is not as real.
Qi Xuansu said: "If you dare not take it seriously, let's help each other and make progress together."
Xie Linyuan smiled: "Progress, you Taoist people can always come up with some new words. Those of us who read the books of sages have never heard of them and can't understand them. You still laugh at us behind our backs for our vulgarity."
Qi Xuansu said: "Mr. Xie is joking."
Xie Buying was a little surprised and confused. Looking at the conversation between the two, they seemed to be old acquaintances. He didn't know when his uncle had friendship with Master Qi. So what happened to Leng Feiyuan this time...
Qi Xuansu glanced at Xie Buying and said softly: "I came here this time because of Jiasi's affairs."
Xie Buying was startled again. He heard that Master Qi was born in the Wanxiang Taoist Palace and had no father or mother. Why did he have an extra family friend? Is the rumor about the Qi family in Shuzhou true?
However, Xie Linyuan knew that the "family kindness" mentioned by Qi Xuansu had nothing to do with the Qi family, and was referring to Qiniang. After all, a strict father and a loving mother, "family strictness" refers to the father, and "family kindness" refers to the mother.
Xie Linyuan nodded, and then winked at Xie Buying.
Xie Buying immediately stood up and said goodbye, feeling full of doubts in her heart.
Obviously, my uncle has known the famous Master Qi for a long time, and is related to the "family kindness" that Master Qi calls. You must know that there are many intricate connections behind this Master Qi. Deputy Palace Master Shi of the Imperial Palace, Yu
Donghua Zhenren in Beijing, and the Zhang family of Zhengyi, this shows that the Xie family has already boarded the Dao sect's ship, and has even participated in the fight for the Dao sect's chief leader, but he has no idea about it, which makes him
Xie Buying, who was going smoothly, was a little discouraged. Master Qi was a few years younger than himself, and he was already involved in such confidential events, planning in secret rooms and spreading orders to the world. But he could only be an outsider. Could it be that he was under his uncle's control?
He is just a child in his eyes, so useless?
After Xie Buying left, Xie Linyuan asked: "What did Qiniang say?"
Qi Xuansu said: "The mission of the Qingpinghui this time is to contain the 'Inn' with all its strength. All personnel in Beijing are dispatched. It just happens that the old and new grudges are being settled together."
