Pawn Crossing the River

Chapter 40 Privy Council

Qiniang then explained in detail what she said was "what happened last time".

This matter has nothing to do with Qi Xuansu, but it has a lot to do with Qingpinghui.

To put it simply, a first-class member of the Qingping Association died.

The Qingping Society is not divided into nine or twelve levels like the Taoist sect. It only has four levels, A, B, C, and D. The members of Class A are the top leaders of the Qingping Society, similar to the seven heads of Qibaofang.

Any first-class member is not a small role. Although it may not be comparable to Qiniang, at least it will not be too far behind.

Now a Class A member is dead.

For many members of the Qingping Society, this is like the death of a Taoist master, and the sky has fallen.

The name of the deceased Class A member was "Qing Shi Shi".

According to Qiniang, the upper level of the Qingping Association is similar to the Golden Tower of Taoism. It does not include the president. It consists of six first-class members, each of whom has one vote, to decide various major matters within the Qingping Association. There are also a number of Class A members who are not doing anything, forming a council to supervise and assist the Privy Council in managing various affairs of the Qingping Council.

The six members of the Privy Council do not appear together. They often elect one person to preside over various matters and represent the six-member Privy Council. "Qing Shi Shi" is the person elected by the Privy Council.

Although "Qing Shi Shi" is a top figure in the Qing Ping Society, he is kind-hearted, has no airs, and often helps lower-level members. He has an excellent reputation. If someone wants to scold the six-person Privy Council, he will usually add "Except Lao Shi" in front of it. ".

However, "Qing Shishi" is not a heroic character in the traditional sense. He is never bitter or vengeful, nor does he like to preach. Instead, he has a wild temper, loves to joke, likes to tease others, and likes to hang out with young people. , and even behaved like an energetic young man.

Qiniang likes to do business, and "Qingshanshi" likes to travel. He once published a book called "Qingshan Travel Notes", with 300 copies printed. They are given away free of charge on a first-come, first-served basis. It is said that the travel notes also marked several places where he discovered the monastic retreats of ancient people, and some people benefited a lot from them.

If someone asked for help, he would never hesitate to help as long as he was free.

Just such a person, dead.

It is unknown how the upper echelons of the Qingping Association reacted, but the middle and lower echelons were extremely shocked.

Qi Xuansu was not in the "dream meeting" at that time, but according to other people's descriptions, Qi Xuansu had a rough impression. It is said that the hall on the first floor was full of people at that time. Because there were so many people, it actually made the entire dream become a blur. It was not very stable, and the hall and the ground even showed signs of shaking.

Qi Xuansu couldn't help but be speechless.

He originally thought that the Qingping Association was just a loose alliance. In fact, it was indeed a loose alliance, but this alliance also had people who were united.

"Qing Shishi"'s reputation and popularity were slowly accumulated over decades, which was one of the reasons why he was elected as a member of the Privy Council.

"Qing Shishi" died in a sudden encounter on a narrow road, and his death was extremely sudden. When the other Class A members arrived, they only saw two bodies.

One corpse is "Qing Shan Shi", and the other corpse is the person who killed "Qing Shan Shi". The specific identity has not yet been identified. Maybe it has been identified, but due to some concerns, it has not been disclosed to the public. public. In short, the ins and outs of the whole matter are still confidential, so Qiniang has not informed everyone.

But obviously, "Qing Shishi" and his opponent died together in the end.

The next step is what happened after "Qing Shan Shi". The most critical point is who will fill "Qing Shan Shi"'s position and become the new six-member Privy Council member.

There are results now.

Qiniang announced lightly: "From today on, I, 'Qiniangzi', will take over from 'Qingshanshi' and officially become one of the six members of the Qingping Society's Supreme Privy Council. I will be responsible to the leader and accept the supervision of the council. This news conference If you have any objections to the announcement of this ‘Dream Meeting’, you can raise it with the Council and the meeting leader.”

Everyone here is Qiniang's immediate confidant, so naturally no one has any objections. On the contrary, they are all happy, and one of them has achieved the Tao of chicken and dog and ascended to heaven. As for the objection,. How many people are involved in a business as big as Qiniang's? How many people are counting on Qiniang for dinner? Even if there are one or two opponents, it is nothing to worry about. .

Qi Xuansu even lamented that others did not know, but he knew that Qiniang actually held two positions. She had just stepped down as the rotating head of Qibaofang, and became one of the six members of the highest privy council of Qingpinghui. The key is that she is still from the Yao family He was born in the same generation as Earth Master. This should be placed in the Taoist sect, and at least he is a true practitioner of knowledge.

Qiniang looked around and saw that no one wanted to speak, so she said: "That's it for today. You can continue to inquire about the news after you go back. In addition, I left the 'Dian Jian Lip' and 'Golden Miscellaneous Knife'. I have a few words to explain. You two."

The other nine people with different moods stood up to say goodbye to Qiniang, and they were very respectful and respectful.

At first glance, it seems that they are not close.

After the nine people left, Qi Xuansu leaned back on his chair and stopped observing any etiquette. The key is that he is so familiar with Qiniang, so familiar that Qiniang can deceive him regardless of her identity and face.

Qiniang glanced at him: "Look at me, look at you, I can't help you at all."

"Yes, others have meritorious service and peace money. I have neither meritorious service nor peace money." Qi Xuansu counterattacked.

Qiniang stretched out her hand and tapped Qi Xuansu's chest: "You little white-eyed wolf, touch your own conscience and say, what have I done to you? I'm just taking a few peace coins from you, and you're not happy? You haven't yet Become the Grand Master. If one day I am down and you become the Grand Master and marry the noble daughter of the Zhang family, I will beg you again. I hope you will help me, this old guy, for the sake of past friendship. Are you going to kick me out again?"

Qi Xuansu was speechless and said calmly: "I am also a person with real power, and my pocket is cleaner than my face. It really doesn't make sense."

Qiniang said righteously and sternly: "I have three virtues, namely kindness, frugality, and not daring to be the first in the world. Where is your virtue of 'thrift'?"

Qi Xuansu didn't dare to speak anymore, he was no match for Qiniang.

Li Qingnu saw it so funny that he couldn't help laughing.

As a result, Qiniang immediately turned the gun on her and said, "You are still laughing. I asked you to inquire about the movements of Taiping Road, but you didn't take it seriously. It took you half a month to get to the Imperial Capital. Did what I said no longer work?" You two have agreed to rebel, right?"

Li Qingnu immediately looked at her nose and heart, looking like a little maid.

Qiniang suppressed the two of them and led them towards the door.

Qi Xuansu and Li Qingnu looked at each other and said nothing.

Qiniang walked in front, and the two of them followed behind, not knowing where they were going. Qiniang said: "I was promoted to Class A and became a member of the six-person Privy Council. Naturally, the two of you have also risen with the tide, from members of Class C to members of Class B. By the way, Qingnu seems to have been a member of Class B for a long time, mainly because of you. ”

With Qiniang's cultivation, she was not afraid of being overheard by others, so she simply called her by her first name.

This "you" naturally refers to Qi Xuansu.

Qi Xuansu asked: "What are the benefits of becoming a second-class member?"

Qiniang replied: "You can use your merits to exchange for things from the guild, such as the 'Dragon Handgun' I gave you, and the 'little medicine' I gave Qingnu. As long as you have enough merits, you can exchange for anything, and it is better than the Dao Sect." It’s much more convenient and there are not so many restrictions, which is why ‘Tian Xianzi’, ‘Zui Chui Bian’, and ‘Xi Hongyi’ are so interested in it.”

Qi Xuansu asked again: "Can I exchange it for 'Xuanyu'?"

Qiniang said: "Of course you can, but it's very expensive. The piece of 'Xuan Jade' you brought back from Fengtai County last time is worth six thousand merit points."

Qi Xuansu was startled at first, and then said angrily: "It's too dark. I got that piece of 'Xuan Jade' and it gave me more merit. It's dozens of times more expensive for you to change hands."

Not to be outdone, Qiniang said: "In addition to your meritorious service, I also arranged for you to go to the Tiangang Hall. If it weren't for me, would you have met your little lover? You are eating with the bowl in hand, and you are scolding me when you put the bowl down."

Qi Xuansu opened his mouth, speechless, and had no choice but to admit his mistake.

Li Qingnu didn't dare to gloat this time and tried hard not to laugh.

Qiniang continued: "I will replace your 'Silver Fish Talisman' with a 'Golden Purple Fish Talisman'. With this 'Golden Purple Fish Talisman', you can exchange it for what you want in the 'Dream Meeting'" Yes, 'Dream Meeting' will deliver the things directly to your hands using the 'Five Ghosts Moving Method'."

Five ghost transportation, also known as the five ghost fortune-traveling technique. The so-called five ghosts actually refer to the god of plague, also known as the five plagues. They are Zhang Yuanbo of the spring plague, Liu Yuanda of the summer plague, Zhao Gongming of the autumn plague, Zhong Shigui of the winter plague, and Shi Wenye of the manager Zhong plague. . The transportation of the five ghosts in the talisman is to drive the five ghosts to bring wealth and transport other people's wealth to your own home. You can take people's property without opening the door or breaking the box.

The principle of door-to-door delivery of "Meeting in Dreams" is the same, but this type of spell usually has a distance limit. "Meeting in Dreams" can cover all over the world, which is very scary.

Qiniang remembered something more and added: "By the way, the 'Five Ghosts Transport Method' of 'Dream Meeting' does not currently support the Western Continent, New World, Posas Island, Borneo, Golden Tent, Rakshasa Kingdom, Fenglin Continent, etc." Over there in the Western Region, the furthest point is the former site of Dondu Country.”

Qi Xuansu nodded to note it.

While talking, Qiniang led the two of them to a staircase.

Needless to say, the stairs lead to the third floor, where only Class A members can go.

Li Qingnu hesitated and said: "Qiniang, can we go up?"

Qiniang said calmly: "If I say you can go, you can go. After all, I am one of the six members of the Privy Council. If I don't even have this privilege, then I might as well not do it."

With that said, Qiniang led the two of them to the third floor.

Compared with the second floor, the third floor does not have so many criss-crossing corridors. Instead, it is a huge square hall with many tables and chairs placed against the wall, and several stairs leading to the second floor. The stairs they came up from Just one of them, and then there are the portals surrounding the square hall.

Qiniang led the two people to one of the gates. There was a couplet. The first couplet was: "Who decides the rise and fall" and the second couplet was "There is no basis for prosperity and decline."
