From a power struggle standpoint, the truth never matters.
Whether Zhang Kuquan committed suicide depends on the attitudes of both parties.
If both parties think he died well, then he committed suicide, and I, the King of Heaven, will also commit suicide when he comes.
If one party does not agree with it, then each side will have to use their own methods.
If you want both parties to reach an agreement, communication is important.
Since the dispute between the Three Ways has intensified, the communication channels between the Zhang family and the Li family have been almost cut off. Communication here is of course not as simple as meeting and talking. You can speak official language, clichés, and scene talk. The key is whether you can let go of your guard and proceed with sincerity.
Some in-depth exchanges about positions, bottom lines, and interests.
If two families want to communicate, they need a middleman. .??.
Since he is a middleman, neither Zhang nor Li is appropriate.
The day after Zhang Kuquan's death, Qi Xuansu began to devote himself to his own errand. As the saying goes, if you know yourself and the enemy, you will be victorious in any battle. He must first understand the Suzuka Imperial Palace. In this regard, whether it is Fenglinzhou Daofu or Toyotomi
The Prime Minister's Office has a lot of information.
Suzuka Gozen is a ghost girl from Suzuka Mountain. It is said that she had been to the Posas Island during her lifetime and was good at magical powers and swordsmanship. There are different opinions about the life of this ghost girl. At the earliest, she was a thief who robbed the royal tribute and was called "Tachi".
"Black hat". The Fenglinzhou court sent a general to conquer her. She chose to submit to the Fenglinzhou court and helped the general to defeat Otakemaru, one of the three demons. However, she died at the age of only twenty-five. After her death, she became Suzu.
The mountain god of Lushan still exists today.
As for her attitude, it is difficult to grasp. It is said that her heart is towards the imperial court, and she was once a great thief. It is said that she rebelled against the imperial court, and she once helped the imperial court to defeat Otakemaru, one of the three great demons.
In the end, Daomen decided that she was an object that could be fought for, and her importance was extremely high, second only to Tamamo Mae.
At this moment, Mu Jin came to Qi Xuansu and said, "Deputy Hall Master Qi, someone wants to see you."
Qi Xuansu raised his head and asked, "Who wants to see me? How come you are the one reporting?"
Mu Jin looked around and saw no one else, then she said, "It's from the Zhang family. The other party first contacted Deputy Hall Master Qingxiao through the 'Mother Mirror', and then Deputy Hall Master Qingxiao asked me to invite Deputy Hall Qi."
Lord, the contact with the 'Mother and Son Mirror' has not been broken yet, and they are waiting for Deputy Hall Master Qi."
Qi Xuansu could only get up and follow Mu Jin to the mirror room, where the "Mother and Son Mirrors" were placed. Because the farther the distance, the larger the size of the "Mother and Son Mirrors", and the smaller number, so
It is a centralized placement, and it is currently not possible to install it in the mortgaged house.
When they came to the separate mirror room, Zhang Yuelu was waiting here and took the initiative to introduce to Qi Xuansu, "Tianyuan, this is my great-uncle. His name is incomparable. During the Shangyuan Festival, you
We have seen it.”
Zhang Wuliang.
Qi Xuansu was naturally impressed, as he was one of the seven assistant managers of Taiping Bank.
The real God of Wealth.
The two major powers, one is personnel power and the other is financial power, the importance of their positions can be imagined. At this point, the Zhang family, Li family, and Yao family are all the same, only the core powerful figures in the family
Only then can you take up the post.
During the bidding process after the Shangyuan Festival, Qi Xuansu had an encounter with this unknown old man.
Qi Xuansu saluted the old man on the other side of the "Mother-Mother Mirror" and said, "Xuansu has met Zhang Fuli."
"Tian Yuan, there is no need to be so polite." Zhang Wuliang did not underestimate Qi Xuansu, precisely because these old people were very accurate in judging people and saw that Qi Xuansu was not an ordinary person, and with the support of Quanzhen Tao, he would definitely have a bright future in the future.
Only then would they worry that he and Zhang Yuelu would take away the position of the general. If Qi Xuansu was just a mediocre person, then Zhang Yuelu would be unable to support himself alone, so there was no need for them to spend so much effort.
In the Taoist environment, there are very few people who always look down on others, ridicule others, and provoke others. Even if there are, it is difficult to climb to a high position. Generally, they adhere to the philosophy that if they don't make enemies easily, they will never stop fighting if they do.
Qi Xuansu glanced at Zhang Yuelu.
Before Zhang Yuelu could speak, Zhang Wuliang had already said, "About Zhang Guquan's case, Tian Yuan has already heard about it."
Qi Xuansu said, "Yes."
"I heard that Tianyuan was in charge of the case over at the camp?" Zhang Wuliang asked.
Qi Xuansu was startled for a moment, and then heard Zhang Yuelu softly say, "Tell it like it is."
Qi Xuansu could only say, "I am in charge. All the people involved in the case have been detained. However, after only one trial, something happened to Zhang Guquan, so there was no further trial. The case has been temporarily shelved."
Zhang Wuliang said, "In this case, Master Qingwei still believes in Tianyuan."
Qi Xuansu was about to defend himself.
Zhang Wuliang raised his hand to stop Qi Xuansu's next words, and said first, "I want to invite Master Qingwei to a banquet. Can you help arrange it?"
Qi Xuansu was surprised, but after thinking about it, he understood.
This is exactly the situation they want. It seems that Zhang Yuelu has not done anything in vain these days, but it still works. As long as both parties are willing to talk, the situation can be calmed down and the situation will not be aggravated and Feng will not be affected.
The situation in Linzhou.
Qi Xuansu asked, "What time does Zhang Fuli think is appropriate?"
Zhang Wuliang said, "I'm already on my way to Fenglinzhou. I can get there tonight, but I can't stay in Fenglinzhou for too long, so I mean tonight is the best. The location will be decided by Master Qingwei."
Qi Xuansu said, "Okay, I will go and ask Master Qingwei for instructions now, and then contact Assistant Zhang."
Zhang Wuliang nodded, "That's it."
After finishing the conversation, Qi Xuansu immediately went to the Chinese army's tent and asked to see Master Qingwei.
Master Qingwei probably had a special explanation with his secretary, so his secretary did not let Qi Xuansu wait, but directly led Qi Xuansu to Master Qingwei's signing room.
Qi Xuansu met Master Qingwei and reported the matter to Master Qingwei in detail.
Master Qingwei didn't say anything after hearing this, and he didn't show any surprise.
Qi Xuansu was a little worried. If Master Qingwei refused to meet, wouldn't it mean that all his previous guesses were wrong? Then the efforts of the past few days would be in vain.
However, as soon as Master Qingwei opened his mouth, Qi Xuansu knew that he was right. Master Qingwei wanted to make peace. The reason why he did not express his position immediately was because he was considering the details of the specific arrangements.
Master Qingwei said to his secretary, "Ask Long Chen to make arrangements and prepare a single-family courtyard in Xiujing. I want to entertain distinguished guests, and I want it in the Central Plains style, not the Fenglinzhou style. No matter who is serving at the banquet,
Those who are responsible for guarding and guarding outside have arranged their own people to be careful not to leak any news."
The secretary asked, "Do I need to prepare a gift?"
Master Qingwei pondered a little and said, "Fuli Zhang probably won't bring too many people with him. Ask Zhu Yu to prepare some local products from the East China Sea, as well as ceremonial pocket flying swords or sword talismans. I'd like to ask if there are any more. There are some."
If you want, you can get local products and flying swords, one for each person. As for the gift for Zhang Fuli, I will prepare it myself."
The secretary took the order and left.
Master Qingwei then said to Qi Xuansu, "Tianyuan, you and Deputy Hall Master Zhang will come together tonight."
Qi Xuansu responded, "Yes."
To be honest, Qi Xuansu was a little surprised. As the saying goes, courtesy should be reciprocated, and the importance Master Qingwei attached to this meeting was somewhat beyond his expectation.
Qi Xuansu left the Chinese army's tent, first met with Zhang Yuelu, and then informed Zhang Wuliang of the result.
In the evening, Zhang Wuliang's flying boat arrived.
Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu went to greet them, but only Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu
Zhang Yuelu. It wasn’t that Zhang Wuliang was light-weighted, but that Zhang Wuliang didn’t notify anyone else at all. This was a secret visit. Just as Master Qingwei expected, Zhang Wuliang only brought two followers.
After Zhang Wuliang got off the flying boat, he went directly to Xiujing without stopping.
On Xiujing's side, Li Tiangang has already arranged a single-family courtyard in a relatively remote location. It is very clean inside and outside, and there is not a single person waiting around.
In the recent period, the situation in Xiujing City has been greatly reversed. Most of the Zunhuang faction has been wiped out, and there are still a few who are deeply hidden and have no influence. Moreover, this meeting is very special, even
There are very few people inside the Taoist sect who know about it, not to mention these Zunban sects who are not of my race. In addition, Master Qingwei is personally in charge, so there is no problem in terms of safety.
Master Qingwei had a large round table prepared, and only six people were seated in the end. In addition to the two protagonists, Master Qingwei and Zhang Wuliang, there were also Qi Xuansu, Zhang Yuelu, Li Tiangang, and Li Zhuyu.
Speaking of Li Zhuyu, she is an old acquaintance of Qi Xuansu. The two met for the first time outside Yujing City. They threatened each other about Feng Bo. At that time, Li Zhuyu claimed to be "the anonymous adopted daughter of the Li family, so she did not
"Seniority", he didn't know until today that Li Zhuyu's adoptive father is Zhenwei Qingwei. As for why she doesn't have the word "Fan" in her name, it has little to do with the identity of the adopted daughter. The main reason is that Zhenren Qingwei himself doesn't like this.
Of course, there is no way to add a seniority code to the adopted daughter. Seriously, she is from the Tianzi generation, the same generation as Li Tianzhen.
Zhang Wuliang's entourage and others were entertained by Master Qingwei's secretary in the side hall.
At the banquet, Qingwei Zhenren and Zhang Wuliang did not talk about the actual content, and did not even mention the three words "Zhang Kuquan". They just said some polite words and scene remarks, and occasionally mentioned the current war at Fenglinzhou.
Half an hour later, Master Qingwei said to Li Zhuyu, "Zhu Yu, you stay with Tianyuan and Qingxiao while Zhang Fuli and I sit alone for a while."
Li Zhuyu stood up and responded.
Under the guidance of Li Tiangang, Master Qingwei and Zhang Wuliang got up and went to the inner room.
After a while, Li Tiangang also withdrew.
Li Zhuyu asked people to remove the table and replace it with hot tea. A few people sat outside and talked.
Master Qingwei and Zhang Wuliang talked inside for nearly an hour. Qi Xuansu didn't know exactly what they talked about, but Qi Xuansu could probably guess that it was about Zhang Kuquan.
Qi Xuansu was optimistic about this conversation, and Master Qingwei's attitude was one of them. Zhang Wuliang went to Fenglinzhou in person to meet Master Qingwei, which was also an attitude and sincerity in itself.
