Taiping Inn

After a while, Zhang Luanshan smiled bitterly and said, "Zifu is setting me on the fire and roasting me. Reading."

Zhang Luanshan’s marriage was not just his own business, but also a major event for the entire Zhang family. Shangguan Wan was bombarded by Shangqing Town. If he wanted him to marry Shangguan Wan, the resistance within the family can be imagined.

Li Xuan naturally understood this truth, but he believed that Zhang Luanshan could solve these obstacles and asked, "Does Brother An Ning agree?"

Zhang Luanshan did not rush to give an answer, but asked, "What do you think of Sect Master Shangguan?"

Li Xuandu asked irresponsible, "I don't know how to be a land master, and Senior Sister Shangguan will inherit the position of a land master."

Speaking of this, it was already very explicit, without any concealment or warmth. Zhang Luanshan naturally understood very well that this was the condition given to Shangguan Guan Wan by Li Xuandu, and Shangguan Guan would probably agree. Because whether it is Lu Yanbing or Shangguan Wan, they are not sad about autumn and sad about the moon, but are also extremely utilitarian.

In addition, the marriages of those who are in high positions, except for a few exceptions, are very secondary reasons. Zhang Luanshan and Shangguan Wan also understand this truth and will not demand anything. If it is, I feel regretful, but it is not impossible to slowly cultivate feelings after getting married.

Zhang Luanshan said, "It seems to be too hasty."

Li Xuandu said: "I don't want people to die, and I don't want Taoist sect to die in the second lifetime. I hope it can continue."

Zhang Luanshan suddenly asked, "The Purple Mansion supported me to inherit the position of the Great Heavenly Master. You shouldn't have started planning this matter at that time, right?"

Li Xuandu smiled and said, "Life is less than a hundred years old, and I always worry about a thousand years."

Zhang Luanshan pondered for a moment and said, "Since it is for the unification of the Taoist sect, how can I refuse? As long as the leader of Shangguan doesn't mind, then I don't mind either."

Li Xuandu touched his hands and said, "It's great, I can't go there personally with Senior Sister Shangguan. When Bai Juan comes back, I will let her come forward for me."

Zhang Luanshan stood up and said goodbye.

Li Xuandu sat alone in the study and thought about Lu Yanbing’s marriage. This was a bit difficult. To sum up, it was neither high nor low. Lu Yanbing is unwilling to have a low family background, and there is no suitable candidate for a high family background. It’s not that it is necessary to get married, but Li Xuan both hopes to eliminate the differences between good and evil through a series of marriages, and further integrate the Taoist sect so as not to resolve the internal struggle of the Taoist sect, which is a powerful external enemy.

At the same time, Qin Qing also led a large army through Lu County, leaving more than 10,000 defenders, and came straight to the imperial capital.

At this time, Princess Yuzhen still did not return to the imperial capital, and still lived in Yuying Temple outside the imperial capital.

Qin Qing sent Qin Buer to Yuyingguan to visit Princess Yuzhen. After receiving Li Xuandu's letter, he took Qin Su to Yuqing Garden.

On May 21st, Qin Qing visited Yuqing Garden.

Li Xuandu welcomed everyone in the Taoist sect.

After everyone exchanged greetings, Li Xuandu and Qin Qing came to the study to have a secret conversation, and even Bai Xiushang and Qin Su didn't know what the conversation was.

This made everyone in the Taoist sect and Liaodong speculate, and even the two ladies were hiding it. What kind of earth-shaking matters were they going to discuss?

Qin and Li Alliance, Qin Qing and Li Xuan are both key points. If there is any difference between the two, the least one will be unstable, and the worst one will give up halfway. Many people are worried about this, but no one dares to ask rashly, they can only be guess.

In fact, what Li Xuandu and Qin Qing discussed is not a big deal at the moment, but more of a prospect for the future.

After a brief greeting between the father-in-law and son-in-law, Li Xuan asked, "I went to Yuzhu Mountain with the earth master Xu Wugui, and met Qin Weisu, the ancestor of the Qin family in the Taixu Illusion Realm. The earth master said that he was determined. Marry a demonic woman and is not tolerated by the family."

Qin Qing nodded and said, "This is indeed the case."

Li Xuandu continued: "As a result, I talked to the Earth Master about the so-called demonic path. The Earth Master said that whether it is the right path, the evil path, the devil path, the Buddhist path, or the Confucianism, Taoism, and the Mohist Dharma, the scriptures are like mountains, the words are like seas, and the Dharma snails are blown. If the world cannot be pacified and the people are stable and prosperous, they will be destined to be unable to last long. The so-called demonic way is born in hardship, died in peace, and prosper for a while, and in a blink of an eye, it will flourish and decline again. The fundamental reason for the death of the demonic way is not the three religions. Suppression is because of the changes in the world. It can be said that its rise and fall suddenly. Behind this rapid rise and rapid decline is what people want. "

Qin Qing's face was a little solemn.

Li Xuandu said: "The Earth Master also said that what he saw and heard in his life, whether it is a temple or a river or a lake, it is also a 'its rise and a sudden death'. One person, one family, one place, and even one The country is constantly repeating the past. "

"At the beginning of the dynasty, the administration was clear and clear. No matter what was done without any effort, no one was not working hard. It was just because of the hardships and hardships that time, I could only seek a life from the deaths. Then gradually improved, the court became stable, and gradually became lazy, and a few changed. As the majority, then laziness becomes the wind. Although there is great force, it cannot be reversed and difficult to remedy. Some are driven by the desire for achievements and the party is the same to fight against the differences. When talents gradually become exhausted and difficult to deal with, the situation becomes complicated. The glorious history, There are also those who are lazy in government and officials, and those who are dead in government and those who are in danger of political destruction, and those who seek honor and humiliation, which is exactly the same as the saying that the Qin people have no time to mourn themselves and later generations mourn them, and later generations mourn them but do not understand them. It also makes future generations mourn their descendants again."

"At first, I was still not deeply touched, but as I integrated the Taoist sect, I gradually gained some clarity and empathy. So I would like to ask my father-in-law, can the Liaodong masters find one among the world after they seized the world? Road, jump out of this vicious circle that has been repeated countless times?”

Qin Qing was speechless for a long time.

Li Xuan didn't ask Qin Qing how to seize the world, but what should he do after he seized the world?

Li Xuan was not satisfied with just changing his surname or changing his emperor, even if the surname was his Yue family, and the emperor was his father-in-law.

If it was just to change the emperor, why didn’t Li Xuan do it himself?

This is an eternal problem.

Qin Qing couldn't answer rashly, but he did think about this question.

Qin Qing replied: "A civil servant will have to be in a row with many redundant people in governing the country; a military man will have to fight all over the country; a noble family will have to rise; a family will have to lose their country; a disaster will arise; a person will have to be in a single state; a thousand horses will be in a silence."

"Governing the country is like curing diseases to save people. Treating diseases requires the right medicine. Since the right symptoms are required, it means that there is no magic medicine in the world that can cure all diseases. If there is, it must be poison. If it is poisoned, all diseases will naturally be eliminated."

"The way of the saint changes with the changes of the world. As the earth master said, it seems that it is constantly circulating, but this cycle is actually a spiral ascending, rising and falling again and again, and moving forward again and again, not standing still. Different worlds are suitable for Different rules are adopted, take the county system and the feudal system as an example. The county system is undoubtedly better than the feudal system. After Zulong defeated Liuhe, he implemented the county system and died in the second lifetime. Baidi was inspired. Here, the kings were enfeoffed and had a world of four hundred years. It can be seen that the good ones are not necessarily suitable for you. It is like a heavy sword. Although the power is greater than that of a wooden sword, the one that is more suitable for children is the wooden sword rather than a heavy sword. Swords, heavy swords will hurt children. If Zifu holds the idea of ​​finding a magic pill to relieve worries, what is the difference between them and those Confucian scholars who want to use a saint classic to create peace for all ages?”

Li Xuandu said seriously, "Get taught."

Qin Qing continued: "There are immortal people in the world, but there are no immortal people. The immortal people also have times when their body and death are gone. A regulation that can be managed for decades is already amazing. How can it last? Thousands of years? Zifu once talked to me about tariffs. It was a very good law when it was originally established, but now it is no longer appropriate and has become a ill.”

"So what I think is not a way to break the deadlock, but can only be said to be an attempt. When I read history books, the key to the decline of several major dynasties is that they cannot suppress local cliques who are naturally short-sighted. Today, they are big. Wei is an excellent example. The greed of a gentleman was killed in five generations. After five generations, he gradually fell into the vicious circle mentioned by the Zifu, and each of them had a strong barrier, without any skills, laws, regulations, or principles. And changing is human nature. It is easy to change the country and nature is hard to change. How can we change human nature? "

Li Xuandu sighed, "Human nature cannot be changed."

Qin Qing said slowly: "This vicious circle is like a chain, which is inevitable in every dynasty. It is like the general trend, and it is not changed by someone's will. Just as the sage of the mind cannot reverse the decline of the Confucian school, it can only be sad. Death. So the important thing is not to break free from the chains, but to fulfill your responsibilities."

Li Xuan was in deep thought.

Qin Qing continued, "How to fulfill his responsibilities with shackles? What I think is that if the lonely yin does not grow, the lonely yang does not grow, and the yin and yang are harmonious, the only way is perfect. Doing the upper and lower, the imperial court is yang, but there are still fewer A dark person will check and balance the court.”

Li Xuandu's heart moved.

Then Qin Qing said, "I plan to let the Taoist sect do this 'yin' to harmonize the yin and yang of the court and achieve harmony."

Qin Qing casually drew a yin and yang Pisces in the void and rotated slowly.

Li Xuan looked at the two dots in Pisces and thoughtfully said, "You have me, I have you."

Qin Qing nodded and said, "That's right."

Li Xuan knew it in his heart and had to admire Qin Qing.

Qin Qing did not over-examine how to avoid this vicious circle, but gave an explanation, gave Li Xuandu an explanation, asked Li Xuandu to check and balance him, and also gave an explanation to the people in the Taoist sect, asking the Taoist sect to check and balance the court.

As for whether the Taoist sect can check and balance the court, that is what Li Xuan has to do.

Li Xuan had to admit that what Qin Qing said might not be right, at least it is not wrong.

Qin Qing finally said: "The road mentioned by Zifu may exist, but it must be found through continuous attempts, continuous corrections, and continuous changes. Maybe we cannot see this day, but we don't have to be disappointed, a generation People have what a generation should do, and we just need to fulfill our responsibilities."
