  We present 0.5-8.0 keV Chandra observations of six bright quasars that
represent extrema in quasar emission-line properties -- three quasars each with
small and large blueshifts of the CIV emission line with respect to the
systemic redshift of the quasars. Supplemented with seven archival Chandra
observations of quasars that met our selection criteria, we investigate the
origin of this emission-line phenomenon in the general context of the structure
of quasars. We find that the quasars with the largest CIV blueshifts show
evidence, from joint-spectral fitting, for intrinsic X-ray absorption (N_H ~
10^22 cm^-2). Given the lack of accompanying CIV absorption, this gas is likely
to be highly ionized, and may be identified with the shielding gas in the
disk-wind paradigm. Furthermore, we find evidence for a correlation of
alpha_uv, the ultraviolet spectral index, with the hardness of the X-ray
continuum; an analysis of independent Bright Quasar Survey data from the
literature supports this conclusion. This result points to intrinsically red
quasars having systematically flatter hard X-ray continua without evidence for
X-ray absorption. We speculate on the origins of these correlations of X-ray
properties with both CIV blueshift and alpha_uv and discuss the implications
for models of quasar structure.
