Chapter 212: Answer
Li Xuandu didn't expect Li Daoxu to bring up the original matter, and he couldn't help but be stunned.
Li Daoxu did not rush to evaluate this sentence, but said: "When I saw this sentence at the time, I only had one feeling. The handwriting on this booklet is like a flying sword, stabbing at me, and my apprentice draws his sword at me, who is a master. ”
This is the first time that Li Daoxu talked to Li Xuandu about his feelings at that time, and Li Daoxu at that time just gave an attitude, and anger was his attitude. Li Xuandu deeply felt what it means to be "soft-spoken" at this moment, the original self and the current self are Li Xuandu, but the same words have different results. He was silent for a moment and said, "Don't dare to do this. ”
"Dare or not, it's all over. Li Daoxu had no intention of dwelling too much on this matter, "This admonition repeatedly praised me before, saying that I was talented and wise, and then the conversation changed, and said that I had not been sharp for a long time, and my delusions were dragged away. It is just plain and misused. Then I used this to draw out the dissatisfaction with the Qingwei Sect, saying that none of them spoke up for me. The wind of Du Yu's call for the wind and the righteousness of Chen Shan's closure of evil are unheard of; These are actually nothing, and they are not your real purpose, what you really want to say is still this sentence: 'Queen Mother Xie's family, disaster to the country and the people, virtue is not worthy, the world will not ask for it.'" You asked me, 'Why did the master go against the trend?' and finally made a conclusion to me: 'Because of one's own selfishness, the public of the world is abolished, and the people of insight in the world do not respect the teacher for a long time.' ’”
Li Xuandu hesitated for a moment, did not deny it, nodded and admitted: "Exactly." ”
Li Daoxu asked: "You haven't thought that these words, not only me, but also any other person, it is impossible to accept them, such as Zhang Jingxiu, Xu Wugui, and your father-in-law Qin Qing." ”
Li Xuandu said: "I have thought about it, but I think that they are not as good as the master, and the master will understand my intentions." ”
Li Daoxu smiled, "You don't mean what you say, you don't have to praise me, I don't believe this." In fact, you are not wrong, I am indeed abolishing the public of the world because of my own selfishness, but the people of insight in the world do not straighten me for a long time, then it may not be. These so-called people of insight, if they are not standing on the dry shore and they are standing in my position, they will also make the same choice. ”
Li Xuandu smiled and said: "Master's words reminded me of a joke, the Golden Horde army went south, the imperial court raised military salaries, and the official asked the rich man: 'If you have 10 million taels of silver, are you willing to donate it to the imperial court?' The rich man replied: 'Yes.' The official then asked, 'If you have a million stone of grain, will you give it to the court?' and the rich man replied, 'Yes?' The official finally asked: 'The court does not want 10,000,000 taels of silver now, nor 1,000,000 taels of grain?' The rich man replied, 'No.' The official was puzzled and asked why, and the rich man replied: 'Because I really have 500,000 taels of silver.' ’”
Li Dao smiled at it, and then his expression suddenly became serious again, and asked, "Zifu, do you still insist on what you said today?"
Li Xuan didn't speak rashly, and was silent for a while.
The reason why he was silent was because he heard Li Daoxu's words, which was also a condition put forward by Li Daoxu. If the Daomen are reunited, there is still a problem that they will continue to support Xie Pheasant
The Great Wei court still turned to support Zhao Zheng in Liaodong. Li Xuandu's original words were against Xie Pheasant, so Li Daoxu wanted to ask Li Xuandu if he still wanted to adhere to his original words, if he insisted, it would be to support Liaodong, and if he didn't insist, he would support Dijing.
Li Daoxu said that he would formally discuss the matter of peace with Li Xuandu the day after tomorrow, but in fact, the day after tomorrow is the day after tomorrow, and he must say it thoroughly today, this is Li Daoxu's old way, he wants to take the conditions offered by both sides to his hands at the same time for comparison, and then make a decision.
Because of this, Li Daoxu also urged Li Xuandu to just walk slowly.
Li Xuandu lowered his head and pondered, not thinking about how he should choose, he already had the answer, and he didn't plan to change the answer, he was figuring out Li Daoxu's mind and thinking about how to convince Li Daoxu.
The two of them walked in a long circle, and had already walked out of the confines of the mausoleum from the other direction and walked towards the sea.
Along the way, I occasionally met the disciples of Tiankui Hall who were patrolling, these disciples were all peripheral disciples, and they didn't recognize Li Daoxu, who had been in retreat for many years, and Li Xuandu, who had not been in the sect for many years, and someone immediately shouted and asked, "Who is it?"
This shout brought Li Xuandu back to his senses, the master has something, and the disciple obeys him, although he is no longer a disciple of Qingwei Sect, but he is familiar with the rules of the sect, and he can't let Li Daoxu reply, and immediately replied: "It's me, Li Xuandu." ”
"It turned out to be Mr. Four. The voice of the question immediately became very respectful, not only because of Li Xuandu's identity, but also because Li Xuandu vaguely guessed the identity of Li Daoxu beside him.
Li Dao said with a false smile: "These disciples should be regarded as my apprentices, and they don't recognize me as a senior ancestor, and they want you, my uncle, to come forward." ”
Li Xuandu said: "The rules of the Qingwei Sect have always been good. ”
"yes, rules. Li Daoxu sighed, "I have been emphasizing rules all my life, and I also want to set rules for this world." ”
While talking, the two had already come to the beach, stepping on the beach, neither of them stepped on the sand without a trace, but left a series of footprints behind them.
Li Xuandu suddenly said: "Fight the war and sell the army, save the people from fire and water, and relieve the people from hanging upside down." ”
Li Daoxu smiled, "This is your answer?"
Li Xuan didn't say anything, but he didn't say it, "I'm ashamed." ”
Li Daoxu said: "If you can't say it and say it, you will lose your words, and if you can say it without saying it, you will lose people." Zifu has to think about it before answering. ”
Li Xuandu said respectfully: "Yes, thank you Master for your teachings. Also, I have one more question for Master. ”
Li Daoxu said: "But it doesn't hurt to ask. ”
Li Xuandu said: "I am the sect master of the Taiping Sect, I am also a disciple of the master, and I have an unclear relationship with the Great Heavenly Master and the 'Heavenly Sword', others think that I am a Chinese person, mediating between several earth immortals, I don't know how many people envy my position at this time, thinking that I have infinite scenery, and some people think that I am now a lobbyist in ancient times, and I am a vertical and horizontal." But the sword has a double edge, hurting others can also hurt yourself, I look at the scenery from this position, but once there is a conflict between several parties, I am the first to bear the brunt, it is impossible to stay out of the matter, you have to choose one side to stand in line, otherwise you are not a person inside and out. So I would like to ask Master, if Master, you are in me
What would you do in your current position?"
Li Daoxu stopped, he didn't expect Li Xuandu to ask such a question, but this question was very interesting, so he didn't refuse, but began to think about it and put himself in Li Xuandu's position.
Li Xuandu also stopped, waiting for Li Daoxu's answer.
After a while, Li Daoxu replied: "If I were you, I wouldn't have a better way, nothing more than improvisation, and never make a choice until the last moment." ”
Li Xuandu smiled, "But Master wants me to make a choice now." ”
Li Daoxu said: "Because I am not in your position now, I have never been a person who compares my heart to my heart." ”
Li Xuandu sighed, "Sure enough, the position you sit determines what you think in your head." Master is in the East China Sea, so of course he has to look at it from the East China Sea. The father-in-law is in Liaodong, so he has to look at it from Liaodong. In the same way, the Great Heavenly Master should look at it from Jiangnan. Three different directions, you will see three different worlds. ”
Li Daoxu stopped talking and looked at the sea with his hands down. The breeze and drizzle did not stick to the clothes, and the sea was not vicious, but gray, shrouded in a thin layer of rain and mist.
Li Xuandu pondered for a moment and continued: "Heaven is constant, not for Yao, not for death. Master should understand the principle of rise and fall, now that the number of Qi of Great Wei is exhausted, why should Master hold on to the imperial capital. ”
Li Daoxu retracted his gaze and looked at Li Xuandu, "This is your answer?"
Li Xuan didn't deny it, nodded and said, "This is my answer." ”
Li Daoxu smiled slightly, as if he had expected it, and said, "Since you have the answer, then I will also tell you my answer." ”
Li Xuandu's face was solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "Master, please speak." ”
Li Daoxu said: "My answer is, put aside the temple for the time being, regardless of the imperial capital and Liaodong, we will only talk about Taoism." ”
Li Xuandu was stunned, he never thought that Li Daoxu would put forward such a statement.
Li Xuandu asked: "If you want to invite the master, how can you only talk about Taoism?"
Li Daoxu said slowly: "The unification of the Daomen is not an overnight thing, it is not for me, Zhang Jingxiu, and Qin Qing to agree on this matter, the people below are like a family, they are all brothers and sisters, there is no such thing." The unification of the Daomen is a long process, and our generation just leaves a frame, just like a broken mirror and reuniting, there are still cracks left on the mirror, and how to eliminate the cracks is the business of the next generation. I will call our three parties according to the geographical orientation as the Eastern Daomen, the Southern Daomen, and the Northern Daomen, and there must be many differences between these three Daomen, especially in the attitude towards the secular world, the Northern Daomen and my Eastern Daomen are even more polar. It still takes time for the carriage to turn, not to mention the people's hearts and attitudes, but the Confucian sect is pressing step by step, and there is not so much time for us to slowly clean up and integrate the people's hearts, so I propose to put aside these controversies for the time being, and only talk about the unification of the Daomen, and then slowly negotiate and change after the Daomen are truly unified. ”
Li Xuandu was silent for a moment, and was about to speak, but was stopped by Li Daoxu raising his hand, "You don't have to answer me in a hurry, think about it first, you can also find someone else to discuss and discuss, and after you really think about it, you will answer me." ”
