Taiping Inn

Chapter 184 Fenglou Spring

After Bai Mei Niang came to Kaishi'an County, she went straight to a secret entrance in Zixian Mountain. After a long passage dug out by manpower in the rock, she finally returned to the belly of Zixian Mountain. This is a passage for the upper level of Tianle Sect. Few people know about it. The exit is located in a splendid room. A precious carpet shipped from the Western Regions is spread on the ground. A three-fold jade screen separates the inside and outside. The outside is arranged as a living room for guests, and the inside is arranged as a study. There is a special rosewood desk, on which the four treasures of the study are all available, as well as many elegant objects, especially a piece of Panlong paperweight carved from a whole piece of white jade. It is flawless and transparent, and the back is micro-carved with the three thousand words of the Supreme Taoist Ancestor. These things alone can be worth more than a hundred Taiping coins.

After Bai Mei Niang walked out of the passage, a bookshelf moved and closed with a bang, blocking the exit of the passage.

This is not Bai Mei Niang's residence, it can only be regarded as a place for her to take a rest and handle sect affairs. As the deputy leader of Tianle Sect, she has her own mansion in "Tianle Taoyuan". This is the important place of Tianle Sect, similar to the Great Zhenren Mansion of Zhengyi Sect. It is the residence of the leader and also the meeting place of the sect. The elders and managers do not live here on weekdays, but each has a separate room of their own to handle sect affairs.

Bai Mei Niang just sat down behind the desk, and there was a sound of undisguised footsteps at the door, followed by a knock on the door.

Bai Mei Niang said calmly: "Come in."

A woman in a palace dress with large sleeves walked slowly into the room and smiled as she spoke: "Deputy Sect Leader, you have been going out every few days these days, but have you waited for the person you are waiting for?"

Although each elder's room has a passage, these passages will eventually converge on a road out of the mountain. This road out of the mountain in the belly of the mountain is guarded by a special person. As long as more spies are deployed at the entrance of Zixian Mountain, it can be known whether the people in the sect have left "Tianle Taoyuan".

Bai Mei Niang was indifferent to the woman's hidden dagger in her smile, and said calmly: "Whether I go out or not, what does it have to do with you?"

"How can you say it has nothing to do with me?" The woman smiled: "After all, you and I are from the same sect. Can't we care about each other?"

Bai Mei Niang stared at the woman for a while, then smiled: "Of course, after all, you are the chief steward of the sect, and I have known you for so many years. I know that you have always acted cautiously, fearing that there will be any mistakes, so it is reasonable to ask one more question."

The woman also looked directly at Bai Mei Niang, and her tone was much softer, "Since sister knows that I am cautious, then things will be easy. I heard that sister often has private dealings with an abandoned disciple of our sect. If I guess correctly, sister is going to see this person this time? If sister is deceived by such a villain, it will be bad, so I plan to inform the sect master of this matter and ask him to make a decision. This is safe. I believe sister is magnanimous and will definitely not blame me, right?"

Bai Mei Niang looked at her and did not rush to speak.

This woman is Feng Louchun, the third most important person in the Tianle Sect. Over the years, there has been a constant gap between the two of them. There have been countless intrigues like today.

Feng Louchun, this name has a slightly worldly meaning, and in fact it is true. She is the chief steward of the "Tianle Taoyuan" in Zixian Mountain. In terms of realm cultivation, she is not small among the many elders of Tianle Sect. She is only in the Xiantian realm, but in terms of status, she is second only to the Sect Master Zui Chunfeng and the Deputy Sect Master Bai Mei Niang.

In a large sect, the higher the cultivation, the higher the status. If the realm cultivation is not high enough to solve all problems, then sometimes you still have to look at other aspects. Take Feng Louchun for example. She can't convince the public with her Xiantian realm cultivation alone, but who can make her good at management? This huge "Tianle Peach Blossom Land" depends on her management. Every year and every month, countless silver flows through her fingers. It is not an exaggeration to say that she is a mountain of gold and silver. Just for this ability to make money, how can others not be convinced?

If there is no such silver, how can the leader pave the way? How can he get through the connections of the ancestor of the Palace Silijian? If there is no care from that ancestor, how can the Tianle Sect gain a foothold here?

You should know that Zhongzhou is not far from the northwest. The female sect has long coveted the Tianle Sect, which comes from the same source. If it were not for the incense relationship between Tianle Sect and Silijian, which was piled up with gold, the Silijian used its power to order the Zhongzhou garrison to set up strict defenses on the Zixian Mountain line to prevent the female sect from infiltrating the south, Tianle Sect would have been eaten to the bone.

If the money can't keep up, the incense of the Ministry of Ceremonies will be cut off. The bitches of the Female Sect like to take advantage of every opportunity and will take action immediately. The Tianle Sect will be in danger. The destroyed Long family of Ping'an County, Jingzhou is a lesson from the past.

When the nest is overturned, how can the eggs be intact? Feng Louchun is fine. She has the ability to make money and has accumulated connections over the years. The Female Sect has obtained this "Tianle Peach Blossom Land" and needs someone to manage it. At most, she will change her sect and become a disciple of the Female Sect. After all, they are all women. Why should women make things difficult for women? The Female Sect will probably be happy to see it happen. But the young and old men of the Tianle Sect can't recognize their godmother as a servant under her skirt, right?

For this reason, who in the Tianle Sect dares to disobey Feng Louchun?

As for the struggle between good and evil, and the general trend of the world, the Tianle Sect cannot compare with behemoths like the Wudao Sect and the Female Sect, and cannot get involved at all. The right thing to do is to just focus on making money for themselves.

So she is the leader and sect of Tianle Sect, after all, harmony brings wealth.

As for the main battle faction, it is the deputy sect leader Bai Meiniang. In Feng Louchun's opinion, what are the benefits of head-on battles with those strong dragons across the river? If you really need to calculate it carefully, even if you win, you will only make a fortune, but your vitality will be greatly damaged. If you lose, lose face, hurt your inner self, it is not a matter of losing money, and it is very likely that others will take advantage of it. Then why could Qin Qing, the "Tian Dao", become the leader of the two sects of Wangqing Sect and Butian Sect? It’s not that the Wangqing Sect is in decline, but Qin Qing of Butian Sect took advantage of the loophole. Even the Zaoge Sect, which was used to cover the sky, now has to rely on others and bow down under the roof of the Yin-Yang Sect. These are all real The lessons learned from the past must be observed.

After all, it’s just because the sect leader is very strong-willed, and he advocates this all day long and goes to his own preferences.

Because of this, Feng Louchun and Bai Meiniang have always had a disagreement, and there are many conflicts in secret.

After a while, Bai Meiniang slowly spoke, "I will explain this to my senior brother in person, so it won't be a big deal for Sister Feng."

Feng Louchun raised his tone and said with a smile: "Since that's the case, I'm so troubled, sister."

Bai Meiniang ignored her and went straight out.

Feng Louchun stood there without moving, but turned around, looked at Bai Meiniang's figure, and sneered.

There is an emperor's mind in the temple. This is what the emperor said in the court. To put it bluntly, it is nothing more than a balance, which makes the two people below form a mutual check and balance, and cannot dominate one by one, thus not threatening the emperor's status. It is also applicable to the sect. Take their Tianle Sect as an example. The sect leader is the high-ranking emperor who holds great power. Bai Meiniang, the deputy sect leader, is like the chief minister of the cabinet, and she is the eunuch in charge of the seal of the Sili Supervisor, one inside and one outside. , checks and balances each other, and no one can surpass their duties, so the sect leader naturally rests his mind.

It was precisely because she understood this that she dared to provoke Bai Meiniang again and again. The sect leader not only would not blame her, but would think that she did it right and became more and more biased towards her.

Of course, she didn't think about trampling Bai Meiniang to death completely, let alone eradicate the root cause. Not to mention the brother-sister relationship between the sect leader and Bai Meiniang for so many years, as far as the sect leader's nature is concerned, it is absolutely true. She won't let her dominate the family. But she felt that it was okay for the two to change positions. It was just right for Bai Meiniang to stand behind her and let her be the deputy sect leader under her.

After Bai Meiniang left, Feng Louchun did not stop here for too long. She thought about it and headed towards the direction where the sect leader was.

She wanted to see how you, Bai Mei Niang, would explain to the sect leader. If you can't explain clearly or want to make the sect leader ambiguous, she wouldn't mind doing a favor and let the sect leader understand it well.
