Chapter 44: Busy
The Daomen Conference is one of the few major events and grand events in the rivers and lakes in the past century, and it is roughly estimated that the number of participants is tens of thousands, or even more. The influx of so many people into the Longmen Mansion certainly gave Confucianism a headache, and it also tested the Daomen's ability to deal with people. It's not that the dignified Daomen can't even do this thing, the key is that today's Daomen is only nominally unified, but in fact they are still not subordinate to each other, and the rules of each family are different. If something goes wrong, it will lose the face of the Daomen, and it will also make the Confucian Confucianism see the joke.
Because of this, Li Daoxu, Zhang Jingxiu, and Qin Qing decided to choose a person who would lead the overall situation and be responsible for overall planning. Who made him have a relationship with the three families?
After the matter was decided, Li Xuandu could not be allowed to shirk and refuse, and the three masters of the sect each ordered them to go down, asking the disciples in the sect to obey Li Xuandu's orders. In the past few days, Li Xuandu has certainly been in power, commanding the Daomen up and down, so beautiful, but he is also busy enough, and he doesn't even have time to close his eyes. Fortunately, his cultivation is profound, even if he doesn't sleep for a month, it doesn't matter much, but the consumption of mental energy actually makes Li Xuan a little tired.
In all fairness, there is nothing important about life and death in preparing for the Daomen Conference, but there are countless small and scattered things, and Li Xuandu does not have to do it himself, just arrange the right person. The key is here, Li Xuandu is not very familiar with the tripartite candidates, on the side of Qingwei Sect, he still knows that Situ Xuanluo is a shrewd and capable person, and he can help him share one or two, and on the side of Zhengyi Sect and Mending Heaven Sect, he is really unfamiliar with it, and it will inevitably take effort.
Now the major inns in Longmen Mansion have been full, and the residences of the major sects in Longmen Mansion are just for their own disciples to settle down is already a little overwhelmed, let alone receiving foreign guests, so that they need to find other places to live, some high-rollers simply wrapped up the courtyards in Longmen Mansion, and they are scattered to various squares if they don't go up or down, and those who don't enter the stream are easy to deal with, and now the weather is neither cold nor hot, just find a place to deal with it, for a time the temples, Taoist temples, barren mounds, Yizhuang is overcrowded, and it is also a wonder that has not been encountered for decades.
In these matters, someone from the Daomen must also come forward to maintain order. After all, they are all people from the rivers and lakes, and it is not impossible to draw a knife against each other if they disagree, and they can't make a fuss at this time and let good things become bad. For this reason, Li Xuandu transferred elite disciples from various sects, mixed together, led by a respected old monk of the King Kong Sect, a total of more than 100 people, responsible for inspecting the inside and outside of the Longmen Mansion, if you encounter a brawl, first speak out to persuade each other, if you don't listen to the advice, take it on the spot, if necessary, you can also kill a hundred people.
In addition to maintaining order, Li Xuandu also has to select people to be responsible for receiving the heads of various sects, although the identities of these people are not as good as the sect masters of various sects, but they are inextricably linked with the major sects. For example, the ancestor of Lingxiu Villa is the elder of the Taiping Sect; Lu Shizhen, the elder sister of Lu Shixing, the owner of Xianjian Villa, is the deputy hall master of Tianji Hall of the Qingwei Sect; and the head of the Wind and Thunder Sect is actually the illegitimate son of Sanxuan Zhenren. To put it clearly, these sects are not only vassals of the major sects, but also the cornerstone of the rivers and lakes, so they can't be contemptuous, and they can't chill the hearts of the people below.
There are also many considerations in this, that is, the word "specification", walking the rivers and lakes, the most elaborate thing
It's face, in this kind of thing, don't suffer from widowhood but unevenness, if you treat everyone equally, it doesn't matter if the treatment is good or bad. I'm afraid that a bowl of water can't be leveled, some people's treatment specifications are higher, and some people's specifications are slightly lower, which is easy to cause trouble.
The twists and turns in this are not solved by force, after all, fundamentally speaking, they are all their own family members, and they can't be beaten, so they have to test their ability to deal with others. After Li Xuandu thought about it a few times, it is not very suitable for a more extreme sect such as the Xuannu Sect, and it is not easy for the Zhengyi Sect and the Qingwei Sect to do this kind of thing, but the disciples of the Cihang Sect who are good at dancing with long sleeves are more suitable for this matter, Li Xuandu specially went to see Bai Xiusheng, borrowed more than 100 disciples of the Cihang Sect from her, and transferred more than 200 people from other sects, a total of more than 300 people, responsible for welcoming guests. When receiving specific receptions, according to their respective affinities, "prescribe the right medicine", for example, if the Wind Thunder Sect is friendly with the Shenxiao Sect, the disciples of the Shenxiao Sect will come forward, and so on.
In addition to the heads of various factions, there is also a category of guests, that is, a huge number of Jianghu scattered people, although the vast majority of Jianghu scattered people are not on the stage, but there are also strange people in the countryside, and now Confucianism and Taoism are competing, these people are also within the scope of the two sides, so they should also be treated politely, these are handed over to the disciples of Cihang Sect, supplemented by some of the disciples of the Forgetful Sect and the disciples of the Xuannu Sect. The key is to arrange a few hall masters, elders and others with sufficient weight to show their attention.
In addition to arranging manpower, Li Xuandu also has to coordinate in the middle, after all, the various sects are not as close as brothers, and there are not a few grudges accumulated over the years, Li Xuandu also has to take this into account and avoid letting the enemies work together, so as not to miss the big thing.
Fortunately, Su Yuncheng and Yu Qingning arrived one after another, Li Xuan knew the abilities of the two, and they were both trained as the next sect master, so they were both pulled by Li Xuan to help him share the burden. But even so, Li Xuandu is still not idle all day long, and people keep coming to report and ask for instructions, Li Xuandu finally understands why Wuhou died of exhaustion back then, no matter how big or small, tied to one body, the consumption of mental energy is so great that it is indeed not something ordinary people can bear.
When Qin Su accompanied Li Feiyan to Qingping Garden, Li Xuandu had just gone to Yanyu Tower. The two came to the main hall and sat down, and Li Feiyan asked, "What did Zifu do when you went to Yanyu Building?"
Qin Su replied: "I heard that the old man is looking for him to have something, about the clothes of several leaders of the tomorrow's conference." ”
Li Feiyan shook his head and said, "Didn't you do it all in advance? Why did it change again? Even if it didn't work, it couldn't be changed now." ”
Qin Sudao: "I heard that the old man meant that there is no need to make more fuss about clothing tomorrow, ordinary disciples do not make requirements, and those who are qualified to participate in the worship of Taoist ancestors are unified Xuanse Heyu, after all, after so many years, it is said that it is a Taoist sect, and most people are not Taoist priests." It is still good to be a crane, and the vulgar roads are available, so that the uniform dress is solemn and solemn, and the other is that it looks like a family. If you are disheveled, you will look like a rabble. ”
"That's what he'll say. Li Feiyan laughed, "Always demanding these things, we, the people of the Qingwei Sect, are all deeply affected by it." It seems that from now on, there will be more victims. ”
Qin Su couldn't help but laugh and said, "I didn't expect the old man to have such a side." ”
Li Feiyan said: "He always wants the rivers and lakes to be like a thousand people."
face, the hierarchy is strict, whether it is etiquette or clothing. ”
Qin Su restrained his smile, and suddenly felt that such rivers and lakes were a little terrifying.
Li Feiyan changed the topic, "Even so, the three masters must be different. ”
Qin Su said: "With the crown, the three crowns of the Daomen." ”
Li Feiyan immediately understood.
The so-called three crowns of the Daomen are: the Taiqing fishtail crown, which can only be worn by the master of the Taiqing faction in the past dynasties; the Shangqing hibiscus crown, which can only be worn by the master of the Shangqing faction in the Taoist sect in the past dynasties; and the Yuqing lotus crown, which can only be worn by the master of the Yuqing faction in the Taoist sect in the past dynasties. If nothing else, Zhang Jingxiu wore the Taiqing fishtail crown, Qin Qing wore the Shangqing hibiscus crown, and Li Daoxu wore the Yuqing lotus crown.
This kind of thing seems small, but it is not. The major affairs of the country are in worship and Rong. "Sacrifice" is sacrifice, and "Rong" is war. It is the same in the Daomen, "Rong" is the Confucianism and Taoism fighting, the jade and the sword fighting, the "ritual" is today's Daomen Conference, and more importantly, it is to worship the Taoist ancestors, in which the etiquette is very important, and it is not allowed to be sloppy.
While the two were talking, Yu Qingning and Su Yuncheng came together, accompanied by Zhou Shuning, Qin Su got up to greet him, because Li Feiyan had a friendship with Bai Xiushang and Xiao Shiyu, and the three women met Li Feiyan as elders.
Su Yuncheng and Yu Qingning couldn't help but be a little surprised when they saw Long'er following Qin Su's side, Su Yuncheng quipped: "Why haven't you seen you for a few days, and you have an extra daughter?"
Qin Su's face turned red and said, "Ai Yunxiu wants to talk nonsense, she is an orphan taken in by her aunt." ”
Su Yuncheng asked, "What's your name?"
The little girl grabbed Qin Su's skirt and hid behind her.
"It's called Long'er. Qin Su said: "Long'er, I've seen Sister Su and Sister Yu. ”
Long Er, who was still half exposed, simply hid behind Qin Su.
Zhou Shuning turned her head sideways, looked at the little girl, and suddenly remembered her former self.
Su Yuncheng smiled and said, "This is shy, but it looks like a vegetarian." ”
Yu Qingning just smiled and said nothing.
Qin Su hurriedly changed the topic, "You guys are here to find the Purple Mansion?" He just went to Yanyu Tower, and he won't be back until a while. ”
Su Yuncheng said: "Zifu is a busy person now, we can take care of it." ”
Zhou Shuning whispered: "I heard that there are not a hundred but dozens of people who want to invite my brother to the banquet, all of them feel that their status is not bad, and they want to invite their brother to appreciate the light. ”
Qin Su couldn't help but smile bitterly, "How can Zifu have this mood, let alone this energy." After all, they're just people who tend to be inflammatory, so don't pay attention to them. ”
Qin Su suddenly remembered something and complained: "The Purple Mansion is busy like this, but the elders don't know how to understand, Aiyun, I'm ...... Daddy, is he still fasting?"
Su Yuncheng coughed lightly, and the right to acquiesce.
Qin Su sighed, old-fashioned.
Su Yuncheng lightly touched Yu Qingning with her elbow, "Nuyun, do you see it, what does it mean that a girl is extroverted?" ”
Yu Qingning lowered her head slightly and pursed her lips and smiled.
