In the end, everyone only saw Shi Zimiao's determination, and Shi Zimiao also used Sun Quan's mouth to explain her true thoughts to the four elders. But at this time, everyone seemed to have overlooked one thing, the question Elder Jing asked at the beginning——
Shi Zimiao, who always likes to take the initiative to control everything, really thinks that she is in trouble? Otherwise, why would she let the princes compete and why should she passively wait for the strong one? This may be what Shi Zimiao would do, but it’s not like Shi Zimiao’s style at all!
Of course, these people will soon understand that it is not that Shi Zimiao is dying, let alone that she has no confidence in herself, but that she is about to leave to pursue the way of heaven!
Shi Zimiao is a person who has a strong desire for control. She has always made all major decisions by herself. And such people have a very obvious shortcoming. To put it bluntly, they are stubborn. The reason why Shi Zimiao works so hard is because she doesn't believe in the abilities of others. She doesn't think there is anyone who can do better than her. She doesn't think there is anyone who can control the overall situation like her. Therefore, according to the original policy, it is not advisable to simply choose an heir. Shi Zimiao is worried that the new head of Cihang Jingzhai may make the wrong bet due to her own lack of ability. Once the princes they support finally end up If defeated, Cihang Jingzhai will also be completely destroyed. Even if this generation won’t be destroyed, what about the future? It is precisely because of this consideration that Shi Zimiao had no choice but to cut off his courage and fundamentally transform the current Cihang Jingzhai to ensure that as long as he makes no mistakes, even a mediocre successor will not lead Cihang Jingzhai to destruction.
The above is the compromise method that Shi Zimiao finally came up with, which can not only take care of his own selfish desire to pursue the way of heaven, but also take into account the righteousness of Cihang Jingzhai.
······
A few days later,
In Zhongnan Mountain, Emperor Ta Peak, and inside Cihang Jingzhai Gate, the largest migration wave in history occurred. Nearly half of Cihang Jingzhai's disciples, including Elder Jing and Elder Shou among the four elders of Cihang Jingzhai, "Jing", "Shou", "Xu" and "Wu", all brought their disciples with them one after another. Leaving the mountain, it was said that he wanted to find a wonderful place in the Lingshan Mountain and build a branch of Cihang Jingzhai. Many inner and outer disciples followed him after hearing the news. It is unknown whether this was a private act by the two elders or Shi Zimiao's instructions.
After ten days,
The seventh-level mountain gate of Emperor Ta Peak is tightly closed, and no one will be allowed in or out within a short period of time. There was only a faint sound of people on the whole mountain. If it was a paradise before, now it is really deep in the mountains and old forests.
But less worldly and more focused, after the sadness of parting, the disciples in the mountain devoted themselves more to cultivation. With the personal teachings of the Zhai master Shi Zimiao and the two elders Xu and Wu, an instant rise among Jingzhai disciples A good trend of cultivation has started. In a short period of time, both the cohesion of the group and the basic strength of the individual have improved to a higher level than before! That’s right, it’s a whole new level! This simultaneous improvement of energy and spirit was quite terrifying. Seeing this, Sun Quan almost felt that these women were secretly taking drugs. Suffering from this stimulation, Sun Quan, who was already muddled and muddle-headed, regained his martial-artistic nature and began to practice seriously. At least three times a day, let me think twice about his skills. Sun Quan would no longer waste them in vain. They were all used by Sun Quan. Infinite exploration of martial arts.
There is no time in the mountains,
Sun Quan only knew that he had already touched the cards three or five times, and he only focused on practicing every day. He had no idea what was happening in the outside world, and he did not think about what his future would be like. Until this day, Shi Zimiao once again All the disciples gathered together and once again announced a major event that could shock the entire Emperor's Peak——
Cihang Jingzhai, the new Zhai Master, will be selected from among the second generation disciples under the elders Shi Zimiao, Xu and Wu! In other words, Shi Zimiao is ready to abdicate and give way to talents!
Sun Quan originally thought that this was a secret that only he knew in advance, but in fact, when Shi Zimiao announced the news, although the disciples of Cihang Jingzhai were sad, they were not surprised. It's not that they have strong psychological endurance, but that the remaining disciples are all the proud ones of heaven and extremely smart. After Shi Zimiao announced the closure of the mountain, many people more or less guessed that there would be such a result. However, no one knows when this scene will come.
On this day, the second-generation disciples practiced even more crazily. Everyone was holding back their energy, not necessarily to become the new Zhai Master, but at least to prove themselves in front of Shi Zimiao, who was about to leave. It is inevitable to be young and energetic and have a desire to express yourself. However, Sun Quan was having a strange day. He always felt like there were always people around him peeping at him.
It wasn't until Shi Zimiao appeared in person and took Sun Quan away that the feeling of being spied on completely disappeared.
"Don't be nervous, it's just that they misunderstood." Shi Zimiao spoke slowly. Since Mount Tai, Sun Quan had never seen Shi Zimiao open her eyes, but no matter what happened, including what the people around her were thinking, it seemed that she could not open her eyes. Clear as day.
"Misunderstanding?" Sun Quan looked a little confused.
"The authorities are confused." Shi Zimiao touched Sun Quan's head. In the eyes of others, Sun Quan had long been Shi Zimiao's favorite disciple. "They thought I brought you back just to pass on the throne to you."
Sun Quan was stunned for a moment, and then he realized. No wonder it was today that he experienced that weird feeling. Is this the reason for his feelings?
"So, those guys are practicing hard, not because they really want to compete for the position of the master, but they just simply disobey me?" Sun Quan couldn't help shouting.
Shi Zimiao pursed her lips and said with a smile,
"You react very quickly. Yes, almost all of those who are still in the door are not obsessed with power. They will not be obsessed with the false name of the master, but if a person who cannot convince the crowd comes to power, it will be difficult for them. Accept it. Cihang Jingzhai is their home, so the owner of Cihang Jingzhai must be the proud representative of Cihang Jingzhai in everyone’s mind!"
"Then Master Shi Zhai, why don't you just tell them clearly? I am not one of the candidates at all." Sun Quan said angrily. This is simply an unreasonable disaster. Cihang Jingzhai is full of beautiful young ladies. Although not many of them have a good impression of Sun Quan, at least they have not treated Sun Quan ill in the past. It's good now. There are so many enemies for nothing, and they are still hostile to women. It's terrible, terrible.
However, Sun Quan soon discovered that the more terrifying thing was actually yet to come. Shi Zimiao, who was standing aside, replied calmly,
"Who said you are not one of the candidates?"
"What??" Sun Quan, who was walking so well, almost tripped over and stopped to look at Shi Zimiao in shock. Could this Shi Zimiao be joking and deliberately teasing me? But she doesn’t seem to be the kind of woman who can tell jokes?
Shi Zimiao also stopped, turned to Sun Quan, and said formally,
"You also have to participate in the selection of the Zhai Lord."
