Chapter Forty-Eight: The Sect Master

Today's royal court is far from the most lively time.

Because the five kings on the left have not yet entered, and Ili Khan, one of the five kings on the right, has not yet appeared.

Li Xuandu wants to fish in troubled waters and then retreat with his whole body, so he has to wait until the water is the most chaotic to make a move, and the current water is far from being mixed enough, Li Xuandu still needs to continue to wait until the ten kings gather.

Just when Li Xuandu was far away in the royal court and set off a storm with the envoys of the Central Plains, the rivers and lakes of the Central Plains were not stable.

It's not that the earth master Xu Wugui is making waves again, nor is it the dispute between the Qingwei Sect and the Zhengyi Sect again, but from within the Zhengyi Sect.

In the previous time when the earth master Xu Wugui attacked the Yunjin Mountain Dazhen Mansion, Yan Feiqing was injured by the earth master, although he was lucky to save his life, but his cultivation was completely lost, even more serious than Li Xuandu's situation back then. Because Li Xuandu only injured his foundation because he overdrew too much strength, in order to go further in the future, Li Xuandu took the initiative to fall into the realm after thinking about it several times. But Yan Feiqing was injured by an immortal, in order to remove the hidden danger, the Great Heavenly Master had to abolish his cultivation, one active and one passive, the gap can not be reasoned, even if it is the foundation of the sect, there is no guarantee that Yan Feiqing can make a comeback like Li Xuandu, and some people even think that Yan Feiqing has become a wasted person, and there will be no comeback.

As a result, there was a voice within the Zhengyi Sect that deposed Yan Feiqing's position as the sect master.

Since the establishment of Zhengyi, the Zhang clan has firmly controlled Zhengyi up and down, and there is even the ancestral training that non-Zhang is not allowed to be a heavenly master. This established Zhang's esteemed status.

At that time, Yan Shenggong, a descendant of the sage, once said: "There are only three families in the world: my family and Shangqing Zhang and Zhongli Xu." Shangqing Zhang, Taoist morale, Zhongli Xu, the outbreak of people, small family spirit. "The Zhang family is the Zhengzhang clan who has lived in Wuzhou Shangqing Mansion for generations, and Zhongli Xu is the royal Xu family who started in Luzhou Zhongli Mansion, although this is arrogant and respects the saint's mansion, but it can also be seen that the Zhang family has a long heritage, and can be compared with the descendants of the saint, the Xu family today, many Zhang clan people are pretentious, and look down on the Li family and the Qin family who can only be regarded as rising stars.

In this case, Yan Feiqing's ability to serve as the sect leader of the Zhengyi Sect has caused many Zhang clan people to be dissatisfied, just because it was Zhang Jingxiu, the patriarch of the Zhang clan, who promoted this matter, and they did not dare to go against Zhang Jingxiu's intentions, coupled with Zhang Luanshan's deviance, and Yan Feiqing himself was an extremely outstanding young talent, so there was no trouble.

Now that Yan Feiqing has lost his cultivation and has become a wasted person, many gossips are like grass after the spring rain, which suddenly bubbles up

Come out. Zhang Jingxiu is a lenient person, and treats his clansmen and disciples not as ruthlessly as Li Daoxu admires the law, nor does he do as much as Xu Wugui wants, because of the word "benevolence", the Zhang clan people are becoming more and more arrogant, after the earth master Xu Wugui attacked the Dazhen Mansion, there are already many Zhang clan people who have a lot of slander against this good-tempered patriarch, not that Zhang Jingxiu wants to step down as the position of the Great Heavenly Master, but to take advantage of this opportunity to fight for power and profit in the clan sect, after all, there are so many positions in the Zhengyi sect, and if someone wants to go up, someone has to come down. When Wuhou's Northern Expedition failed, he degraded himself to the third level, and now that Zhengyi is suffering from this great disaster, the Great Heavenly Master naturally cannot compromise his responsibility, and now most of the people who can be in high positions are Zhang Jingxiu's henchmen, and they can't move Zhang Jingxiu, and they can't move his henchmen?

If it is replaced by Li Daoxu, of course, no one dares to complain, and there are not a few people from the Li clan who died in the hands of Li Daoxu back then. But many people of the Zhang clan decided that Zhang Jingxiu would not do anything to them, and felt that they had occupied a "reason" word, after all, for so many years, the Zhang family had been beaten to the door of their homes by others, so they became more and more unscrupulous. Of course, Zhang Jingxiu can suppress it, but in this way, the hearts of the Zhang family will be dispersed, and the accumulated resentment will be even greater, and one day it will erupt. Therefore, Zhang Jingxiu wanted to join forces with Li Daoxu to lead the righteous sects to break the Soap Pavilion Sect in Beibi Mountain, suppress the old man Zang, the sect leader of the Soap Pavilion Sect, and force the earth master Xu Wugui and the Yin Yang Sect to flee away. In this way, Zhang Jingxiu not only made up for his mistakes, but also demonstrated the majesty of the Great Heavenly Master, and those discordant voices gradually disappeared.

In this case, Zhang Jingxiu's prestige went to the next level, and he took advantage of the situation to dispose of a few people from the Zhang clan who had the most trouble. Many people of the Zhang clan didn't dare to say more, but Yan Feiqing became their punching bag. After all, in the battle against Beibi Mountain, it was Li Xuandu who shined, not Yan Feiqing, Yan Feiqing can be said to be defenseless, so Li Xuandu sat firmly in the position of the suzerain of the Taiping Sect, but Yan Feiqing could not sit firmly in the position of the suzerain of the Zhengyi Sect.

Of course, the reason why Yan Feiqing fell into such a field was for the sake of Zhengyizong, otherwise he would not have been hurt by the earth master. From this point of view, Yan Feiqing still has a lot of credit. However, whether it is a temple or a river or a lake, there is a tradition, that is, to put the blame on the heads of the dead, in the last years of the Great Jin Dynasty, if the generals abandoned the city and fled, they still had military power in their hands, and the court not only did not dare to punish them, but also comforted them, for fear that these powerful generals would rebel. If the general defends the city to the death, destroys all his family, and finally dies in the city, not only will it be useless, but he may also be used to blame for the crime, and his wife and children will be affected by it. With such an atmosphere, who would dare to be loyal to the country and the court

, how can you not die.

Although Yan Feiqing is not a dead person, but for the rivers and lakes, the dead and the dead are almost the same, and someone must be responsible for this matter, since the Great Heavenly Master is to clean up the mess and save the situation, then the worthless Yan Feiqing has changed from "defending the land and meritorious" to "losing the city and losing the land", the reason why the Earth Master was able to attack the Great Zhenren Mansion was because Yan Feiqing, the sect master, was ineffective in commanding, unable to respond, and careless. has not been prevented, and all the blame for the crime belongs to Yan Feiqing, the sect master, so it is imperative to depose Yan Feiqing's position as the sect master and give the whole sect an explanation.

Today's Yan Feiqing, just like Li Xuandu back then, the emperor lost the first battle, there must always be someone to take responsibility, Li Daoxu is the one who turned the tide, Li Yuanying has not participated in it, then Li Xuan must give an explanation to the whole sect, so Li Xuandu had to give up all his authority and began to live in seclusion, and the four gentlemen party that was prosperous at that time disappeared. Until now, Li Xuandu has not turned over, he just started anew, and in the Qingwei Sect, he is still a sinner back then.

It was precisely because Li Xuan had personal experience and understood the predicament encountered by Yan Feiqing that he specially asked Qin Su to meet Su Yunming, and it was best to pull Su Yuncheng into the Qingping Society, exchange ideas, and also save the intention of taking care of this friend. It's just that before Qin Su could make his move, the Zhang clan members within the Zhengyi Sect had already made trouble. Because of the precedent of Zhang Luanshan, the little heavenly master, Zhang Jingxiu is not too biased towards his disciples on the surface, and logically speaking, Yan Feiqing, who has no cultivation, is indeed not suitable to continue to stay in the position of the sect master, so Yan Feiqing officially stepped down as the sect master of the Zhengyi Sect. Fortunately, with Zhang Jingxiu in charge, no one dared to take an inch, endangering Yan Feiqing's life, which was a blessing in misfortune.

It's just that who will take over the position of the suzerain of Zhengyizong next, there are disagreements, some people recommend Zhang Feishan, who has become famous in recent years, some people recommend Zhang Daishan, who has been valued by the Great Heavenly Master Zhang Jingxiu in recent years, and some people recommend Zhang Yueshan, the oldest in the "mountain" generation, and Zhang Jingshen, a town magician who is the same generation as Zhang Jingxiu.

Because Zhang Jingshen had a meritorious role in guarding the Demon Suppression Platform and prevented Xu Wugui from opening the Demon Suppression Well as soon as possible, Zhang Jingxiu had lifted Zhang Jingshen's ban and allowed him to leave the Demon Suppression Platform and move freely, so in terms of rules, Zhang Jingshen could also participate in the election of the sect leader of the Zhengyi Sect.

In the end, Zhang Jingxiu believed that if it was an eventful time today, it would be difficult for people of the "mountain" generation to take on heavy responsibilities, especially after his death, he could not stabilize the situation of the righteous path and could not resist Zhang Haishi of the Qingwei Sect, so he decided that Zhang Jingshen, who had cultivated the highest, would be the acting sect leader of the Zhengyi Sect.
