Li Zhuyu is a smart man. After a short silence, he figured out a joint.
Qi Xuansu handed in a draft, but he was still signing the deposit and continuing to prepare the report. That meant one thing. Qi Xuansu also knew that there was a high probability that this draft would not be passed, and he was under too much pressure. So he reserved space in advance, which was room for compromise.
Compromise within a Taoist sect is generally not a unilateral compromise, that is called admitting defeat.
Usually there is a compromise.
If you give in a step, I will give in as well. This is a compromise.
Li Zhuyu said: "There is no talk or lack of clarity. What we are talking about is focused on key issues. Discussions must have priorities. You listed half of the achievements and half of the problems. It seems that both are important. In fact, neither is important, which conflicts with the spirit of emphasizing emphasis above, and also conflicts with the general direction of the entire discussion.”
Qi Xuansu pretended to be thoughtful and then said: "Since we want to focus more on it, let's change it from 50% to 46%. What do you think about 60% of the questions and 40% of the results?"
Li Zhuyu said nothing.
Qi Xuansu continued: "We must always consider Xidaomen's feelings. Even if it is an internal discussion, we cannot hide it from Xidaomen."
Li Zhuyu finally spoke: "Since the chief has said so, in order to take care of Xidaomen's feelings, we can only do this. But my opinion is nothing, let alone a guarantee. In the end, it still depends on the real person in charge and the country. The meaning of the teacher."
Qi Xuansu said: "When the Master comes back, I would like to have a detailed interview with the Master on this matter."
Li Zhuyu agreed without thinking: "Okay."
Although Shen Yuqing
She is the secretary of Zhenren Qingwei, but Li Zhuyu is an adopted daughter after all, so she can also take charge of this matter.
After Li Zhuyu left, Qi Xuansu returned to the study, wrote quickly, and quickly finalized the draft.
Later, Shen Yuqing informed Chen Jianchou that the real person in charge asked Chief Qi to come over.
Qi Xuansu took his new manuscript and went to the signing room of the master in charge.
Looking at the entire Beichen Hall, Qingwei Zhenren is the number one person and Qi Xuansu is the second person. Apart from Qingwei Zhenren, that is Qi Xuansu. But it is different from the relationship between Qi Xuansu and Wang Jiaohe. At that time, Qi Xuansu went down with the mission of Jinque, which was equivalent to that of an angel. Later, he took over some of the power belonging to the great master in charge, so that he could compete with Wang Jiaohe.
But in Beichen Hall, this is not the case. Master Qingwei is not only the master in charge, but also the second-ranking master of Jinque. Strictly speaking, Master Qingwei is first the second-ranking Master of Jinque, and then he concurrently serves as Master of Beichen Hall. This order cannot be wrong. As a result, the status gap between the two widened to the point where the chief deputy palace master could not even compete with the real person in charge.
Qi Xuansu came to the room where Master Qingwei was staying. Shen Yuqing was already waiting here: "Master Qi is waiting for Chief Qi."
Qi Xuansu nodded slightly, opened the door and walked into the reception room.
There were only two people inside, namely Zhenren Qingwei and Li Zhuyu.
Master Qingwei sat on the main seat and pointed to the seat next to him: "Sit down."
Li Zhuyu was playing with the tea set and filled a cup of tea for Qi Xuansu.
After Qi Xuansu sat down, he handed the report draft in his hand to Master Qingwei: "Please take a look at it."
Master Qingwei didn’t say anything
I just calmly took the report and read it slowly.
Qi Xuansu picked up the tea cup, but did not drink the tea, just letting the heat curl up.
Soon, Master Qingwei finished reading and did not comment immediately, but asked: "Tianyuan, what do you think of the situation in the New World?"
Qi Xuansu thought for a while and replied: "In the short term, as long as there are no major changes, neither Xidaomen nor Steam Gospel can do anything to the other. The confrontation between the north and the south should be maintained. Military confrontation will become a thing of the past. Development and change will It will become the general direction. Xidomen will face a major transformation issue from a wartime system to a normal mode. As the so-called ship turns around in a disaster, this will test the courage and ability of the helmsman. "
Master Qingwei nodded slightly, recognizing Qi Xuansu
analysis, and then added: "Development is a big problem. If you are the leader of Xidaomen, how will you develop?"
Qi Xuansu couldn't figure out Master Qingwei's intention for a while, so he could only follow along and said: "Taomen has reached this point and has begun to implement the transformation of various industries. It is to transfer a large number of industries with low technical content. Previously, I moved to Nanyang. I have stayed in Nanyang for three years, and I am quite familiar with the situation there. Now Nanyang is becoming saturated, and even some areas, such as Lion City, Thang Long and other more developed areas, have also begun to transform. Judging from the general trend of development, these industries are of course low-level, but for the poor Southern Continent, accepting the transfer of these industries is a major opportunity to promote the overall transformation."
Qi Xuansu paused for a moment, finally took a sip of tea, and then continued: "If
As the leader of Xidaomen, I must seize this opportunity. These industries are like bread. Bread with butter and honey is certainly delicious, but the production is limited and not everyone can eat it. Of course, white bread is not as delicious as butter bread, but it is worse than black bread mixed with sawdust. When you don't have white bread yourself, getting some white bread from others will also lay the foundation for you to eat butter bread in the future. "
Master Qingwei concluded: "Equality, mutual assistance, and harmonious development."
Qi Xuansu was startled, and then said: "Yes, there is a big premise for all this, that is, the Daomen is willing to cooperate with the Xidaomen. If the Daomen blocks the Xidaomen, then the result will be difficult to say. Sometimes, the person at the helm is also incapacitated. It’s up to you, it’s not that you don’t want to develop, the key is to look at other people’s attitudes.”
Master Qingwei asked: "Then why does Daomen help Xidaomen?"
Qi Xuansu said: "We have the same origin and are dependent on each other for survival. To put it bluntly, brothers help each other. When the elder brother is prosperous, shouldn't he help his brother?"
Master Qingwei laughed and said, "Since we are brothers from the same sect, why do we have to eat from separate pots? Why don't we just become a family and eat from the same pot?"
Qi Xuansu understood what Master Qingwei meant: "Of course it's good, but there are many problems here, which I'm afraid will be difficult to solve. We and Xidaomen are a family, Tawanting and the Central Plains are not a family, and the countries in Nanyang at least have Half of them are immigrants from the Central Plains, and becoming a vassal state of the Central Plains Dynasty did not happen overnight. The foundation is laid here. Of course, you can eat in one pot, but Tawanting has almost nothing in common.
It's a pot of uncooked rice. If you try to eat it forcefully, your stomach will become bloated. "
Master Qingwei said: "Everything depends on human effort. If you don't try, you will never succeed."
Qi Xuansu said: "I'm afraid I'm taking too big a step..."
Master Qingwei interrupted him: "If you are not afraid of doing something wrong, you are afraid of not doing something. If you don't take steps, you will never get in trouble, but if you don't take steps, how can you talk about development? Development, development, is just touching. A stone crosses the river."
Qi Xuansu glanced at the manuscript placed on the coffee table by Master Qingwei and was silent for a moment: "How about I go back and think about it?"
Master Qingwei nodded and said, "There's no harm in thinking about it more."
Qi Xuansu picked up the manuscript and stood up to leave.
Shen Yuqing sent him off in person.
However, Qi Xuansu expressed his dissatisfaction by saying nothing and having almost no interaction with the secretary.
Qi Xuansu returned to his signing room, crumpled the manuscript into a ball and threw it on the ground.
Chen Jianchou, who was following Qi Xuansu, picked up the manuscript and said softly: "Chief..."
Qi Xuansu took a deep breath and calmed down: "It seems that I will be disappointed with the high expectations of Taoist Brother Huangfu."
Chen Jianchou said: "Master Huangfu will understand the chief's difficulties."
Qi Xuansu did not speak, but took out a piece of rice paper cut into a banner from the cupboard, spread it out on the desk, and flattened it with a paperweight.
Chen Jianchou quickly helped add water to grind the ink.
Qi Xuansu picked up his pen and fell into deep thought.
More than one person has taught him to learn to control his anger. Controlling his anger means controlling his emotions. If you want to soothe your emotions, you can practice calligraphy.
In the past two years, Qi Xuansu has been busy
I also learned a few strokes in my spare time. Those who can use swords and swords are good at wielding swords.
The pen is not that bad, I can’t compete with everyone else, but I can still put it on the table.
Today's Qi Xuansu is no longer the same Qi Xuansu who made a joke in front of Yao Pei.
Soon, Chen Jianchou finished grinding the ink, and Qi Xuansu dipped his pen in the ink, but he was still unable to start writing. As a result, the ink formed a dot on the paper.
When Chen Jianchou saw this, he wanted to help Qi Xuansu change a piece of rice paper.
Qi Xuansu raised his hand to stop him and said, "No need."
After that, he wrote with this ink dot from right to left: "Seven years of illness, please pray for three years of moxa."
If you don't count the dip in ink in the middle, then these words can be regarded as one stroke. Qi Xuansu casually threw the pen into the brush wash and examined the words.
Chen Jianqiu was beside him, his eyes also fell on this calligraphy, and he said: "The chief's calligraphy is full of Qi, and the tip of the pen is like a knife."
The job of secretary is not that easy. Not only do you have to support him, you also have to guess your boss's thoughts.
At this moment, Chen Jianchou had an accurate idea of Qi Xuansu's thoughts - the discussion between the chief and the real person in charge was not satisfactory.
Qi Xuansu asked during the examination: "Then tell me, why am I so angry?"
Chen Jianchou replied: "Today's desire to become a king is like being sick for seven years and praying for three years of moxa. If you are not an animal, you will not be able to do it for life. Yasheng believes that Emperor Xin lost the world because he lost the support of the people. Now Those who seek to dominate the world are like those who have been suffering from a disease for seven years. They must use mugwort that has been stored for more than three years for moxibustion treatment to be effective. If you don't pay attention to saving mugwort, you will never get it in your life. If you can't be determined If you implement benevolent government, you will be worried and humiliated throughout your life, and you will not be able to rule the world until your death."
Qi Xuansu agreed:
"Very good. If four or six doesn't work, then three or seven. Put my seal on it."
Chen Jianchou took out Qi Xuansu's private seal, stamped it heavily in the cinnabar ink pad box, then raised it to his mouth and took a deep breath, then stamped it squarely on the upper right corner of the banner.
Qi Xuansu ordered: "There is no need to avoid others, just send it directly to Master Huangfu, he will understand."
