As the saying goes, the Taoist sect's equality is only superficial after all. It is more about using equality to fight against the Confucian sect's principles, but deep down, it is still impossible to get rid of the Confucian sect's routine.
The unity of the three religions is not just a lie after all.
Chen Jianchou naturally understood this truth and slowly stood up.
He also understands why Qi Xuansu is reluctant to speak, because this young master has been insisting on the word "law" and using the law as a shield. No matter what the truth is, no matter what happens in private, it is not good on the surface.
.
If Qi Cixi speaks rashly, it is both selfless and selfish.
Others don't care whether you are right or wrong. Many times, I am weak and I am reasonable.
So Qi Ci sat silently.
But Chen Jianchou couldn't help but speak. He said coldly, "What a loud tone. Even the second person sent by Jinque doesn't take it seriously. I really don't know who can get into your eyes."
The young master turned his eyes to Chen Jianchou, "Where did this heroic man come from who speaks out for justice? If you are speaking for Qi Cixi like this, is it possible that you are Qi Cixi's people?"
Chen Jianqiu said, "We are from the Water Palace."
"That's really amazing." The young master clicked his tongue, "It's a pity that there is only one sun above the head of Borneo. As we all know, the sun is fire and the lunar moon is water, so the water palace is not as good as the fire palace."
Chen Jianchou raised an eyebrow, "You mean, the real person in charge is better than the real person in charge?"
The young master's smile froze slightly, then returned to its original state, "The master in charge cannot go out in seclusion, so naturally he is respected by the master in charge."
Chen Jianqiu said in a deep voice, "Even if the master in charge cannot come out with such news in seclusion, your Excellency can know it. He is really from a good family. In this case, don't be secretive and give your number."
At this moment, a group of people walked out of the restaurant. The leader was a Taoist priest in charge, with a somewhat awe-inspiring power. Behind him was a group of black-armored spiritual officers, which was intimidating.
When the young master saw this person, he no longer struggled with Chen Jianchou. Instead, he quickly walked up to him and took the initiative to salute, "Master Huang."
Mr. Huang returned the courtesy politely and said, "Master Sun."
When a young man like this goes out, he will naturally have an entourage. Just now his entourage has gone to report the news.
Then Mr. Sun pointed at the female Taoist priest at the beginning, "She is the one who committed the murder." Then he pointed at Qi Xuansu and the three others, "These are all accomplices and people from the Taoist government. You have to do it for us."
The common people are the ones who make the decision, and we cannot let these Taoist worms dominate and harm the reputation of the Taoist government."
Manager Huang nodded slightly and looked at the people, "You guys, all come with me."
Chen Jianchou asked, "Who is your Excellency?"
Director Huang cleared his throat, "I am Huang Jiaoqing, the director of Fengxian Hall. I specialize in detecting the illegal affairs of Taoist priests in Shenglong Prefecture. Come here.
Capture these people for me and take them back for questioning. Whoever dares to resist law enforcement will be punished with an additional penalty!"
Others are afraid of Taoist priests, but they are both Taoist priests, and they are somewhat polite to each other. Only Beichen Hall and Fengxian Hall, which specialize in internal affairs, are not afraid. There is no difference between interrogating Taoist priests and interrogating prisoners. When ordinary Taoist priests see people from these two Taoist halls, they will
First of all, be timid. These two Taoist people are inevitably domineering.
As soon as he finished speaking, the spiritual officers behind him swarmed up and tried to capture several people.
Mr. Sun put his hands on his hands and smiled and said, "That's right. This is the Qingtian Master of our people in Shenglong Mansion."
Chen Jianchou raised his hand to signal the spiritual officer to wait, and repeated, "We are from the Water Palace."
"What's wrong with the Water Palace?" Huang said solemnly, "Can the people in the Water Palace not follow the law? Can the people in the Water Palace commit crimes in the street? Can the people in the Water Palace fight against the Taoist government? Can they fight against the Taoist sect?
Fortunately, you still know that you are from Shuigong. You are discrediting Shuigong, and you are discrediting the Taoist government. Do you know? Don’t mention anything to me about Qi Cixi. Let me tell you, today Qi Cixi is here in person.
I will not protect you. Now, follow me honestly. What awaits you will be severe punishment according to Taoist laws!"
These words are really righteous and awe-inspiring, and they are easily raised to the level of fighting against the Taoist sect. What a big hat.
No matter how you say it, your tongue can crush someone to death. The key is to kill without blood.
Qi Xuansu suddenly remembered a saying, "I am in you, you are in me, and everything in the world is bad here."
Foreign enemies are not to be feared, but the most terrifying ones are our own people.
Logically speaking, this Chief Huang should be considered his subordinate.
Because these branch Taoist halls located in local Taoist governments are under dual leadership, they are vertically led by the main temple in Yujing, and horizontally under the leadership of the local Taoist government. Because the second deputy governor is in charge of law and discipline, so
Fengxiantang and Beichentang are also subordinates of the second deputy palace master.
It's just that Qi Xuansu has only been here for a short time and has only appeared in public a few times. This manager Huang has not met Qi Xuansu yet, so he doesn't recognize Qi Xuansu. Hearing his words at this time, he thought it was Qi Xuansu who was behind his back.
support.
Ke Qingqing was usually called Xiao Qixi, and he seemed to be the incarnation of Qi Xuansu. Everyone was polite when he saw him. He had never been so angry before. At this time, he was also furious. He pointed at Huang Jiaoqing, "Huang Jiaoqing, right? I remember."
I’ll keep you here. Don’t regret it.”
Mr. Sun said calmly, "Master Huang is upright and has a breeze on his sleeves. What is there to regret? How can he be afraid of your threat?"
At this time, the female Taoist priest who first beat people was completely panicked and had no idea how things could develop to this point.
This step.
Qi Xuansu still watched with cold eyes.
It was an eye-opener for him.
In the past, he came into contact with Li Changge and Yao Pei. These people are of high level and have a big structure. They will not engage in such unsightly tricks. The slightly inferior Li Tianzhen and his like have a different style. They are decisive and decisive.
The word "ruthless" has been applied throughout. Now that I have seen the methods of these local emperors, they have found new ways to use their own strength to gain strength.
Having seen it all, Qi Xuansu finally said, "Didn't Spirit Officer Ding Chou take over full control of the defense? According to the rules, all Spirit Officers will obey her command during the martial law period. Why can Feng Xiantang still mobilize Spirit Officers?"
Ke Qingqing was startled, then looked at Qi Xuansu, "This..."
Qi Xuansu continued, "The Supreme Master is in charge of military affairs. After entering the state of martial law, all spiritual officers must obey the unified dispatch of two first-grade spiritual officers, and the two first-grade spiritual officers are directly responsible to the Supreme Master. Now the Supreme Master
Da Zhenren could not leave seclusion. Qi Cixi was ordered by the head of the Da Zhenren to take on some of the responsibilities. This was something recognized by both the king and Chief Chen. Qi Cixi declared martial law, transferred all spiritual officers, added guards, strengthened patrols, and organized
Search, implement curfew, restrict entry and exit of the city, unified dispatch, unified command, can Fengxian Hall be an exception?"
Huang Jiaoqing's face changed slightly and he looked at Qi Xuansu, "I haven't asked you yet. Who are you?"
Qi Xuansu asked directly, "Is this the privilege given to you by Qi Cixi?"
Huang Jiaoqing's face darkened, "So what?"
Qi Xuansu said, "You keep preaching the law, so if you forge orders, do you know what the consequences will be?"
Huang Jiaoqing knew that he was facing a difficult situation.
Lingguan is also a human being, not a machine, so they also have tendencies and understand the world. They do not just do what the top big shots say. The county magistrate is not as good as taking charge now, so they all looked at Huang Jiaoqing at this time.
Huang Jiaoqing's eyebrows were gloomy, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Get it for me."
Four spiritual officers took action at the same time.
Although he was wearing armor, his figure was like a ghost. Two people held Qi Xuansu's left and right shoulders respectively, and two people held Qi Xuansu's arms respectively. They wanted to use the combined strength of the four of them to cut Qi Xuansu's arms behind his back.
To be fair, these four spiritual officials are really elite. They all have the strength of an innate person in the stage of returning to his true form. With the combined strength of the four of them, even the heavenly beings cannot defeat them in terms of strength alone.
But Qi Xuansu is not an ordinary heavenly being, but an infinite warrior.
Not only did he remain motionless, no matter how hard the four spiritual officers exerted themselves, they could not move him at all. Instead, he raised his arms and ejected the four spiritual officers.
After the spiritual officials landed heavily, they looked at each other in shock.
Qi Xuansu stood up.
Ke Qingqing and Chen Jianchou both walked quickly behind him and stood with their hands down.
The female Taoist priest hesitated for a moment, followed suit, and stood behind Ke Qingqing.
Qi Xuansu said, "Let the spiritual officer come and lock me up."
Huang Jiaoqing was horrified in his heart, but his face remained tense, and he pointed at Qi Xuansu, "Beat the Taoist spiritual officer. Are you going against the Taoist government and the Taoist sect? Do you want to rebel?"
Even if the remaining spiritual officers knew they were not opponents, they all protected their boss.
Qi Xuansu stepped forward, and three hundred and sixty-five body spirits appeared. Then, one in each hand, he threw all these spiritual officials out and stood face to face with Huang Jiaoqing.
Cold sweat broke out on Huang Jiaoqing's head.
Qi Xuansu said, "You said Qi Cixi gave you privileges, why didn't I know?"
Mr. Sun was shocked and angry, but he was not stupid. He knew that this time it was not as simple as a hard fight, but a kick to the iron plate. He quickly took the initiative to remedy the situation and said, "The flood has washed away the Dragon King Temple, and one family does not recognize the other."
Speaking of which, Chief Huang is Qi Cixi’s subordinate, and several of them are from Shuigong, they are all one family.”
Qi Xuansu asked, "We are no longer talking about the law now? The law was shouted loudly just now, why are we not shouting it now? People in the Water Palace can't break the law, just Qi Cixi's subordinates?"
Mr. Sun was immediately speechless.
Huang Jiaoqing gritted his teeth and said, "I admit defeat today, but I always have to know whose hands I fell into."
Qi Xuansu twitched the corner of his mouth, "My name is Qi Xuansu, and I am the 'that Qici seat' that Master Sun calls me."
In an instant, their faces turned completely white, uglier than crying.
Qi Xuansu ordered, "Let Officer Ding Chou come and take all these officers away. As for Mr. Huang, I don't ask whether you handled this matter right or wrong. I only want to say one thing, you did it without authorization during the martial law period."
Call the spiritual official and suspend his duties from now on, pending disposal."
Ke Qingqing took the order and left.
Huang Jiaoqing swayed and did not dare to refute. If Qi Xuansu brought up the matter of beating people, he could indeed refute one or two, or even cry out for injustice, which would have a lot of room for maneuver. However, Qi Xuansu did not mention this at all, and directly blamed him for calling the spirit secretly.
This is a big taboo regarding official matters, and there is no room for refutation at all.
Qi Xuansu finally looked at Mr. Sun, "You said that everything must follow the law. This is true, but you should not think that the past is over and others cannot know what happened."
Qi Xuansu told Chen Jianchou, "Send a few alchemists here to trace the earth's energy. In the meantime, let Mr. Sun come with us to assist in the investigation."
He pointed at the female Taoist priest again and said, "Anyone who hits someone, take them away too."
