This situation was not only expected by Qi Xuansu, but also not expected by Qi Xuansu.
To say it was not expected is because Qi Xuansu did not guess that Tianchensi would end directly. Even before that, he had only heard of Tianchensi's name and lacked a more intuitive impression of it. If he said it was expected, then
It's because Qi Xuansu probably guessed the plot of killing someone with a borrowed knife.
Therefore, Qi Xuansu was quite prepared for this situation and was not too panicked.
Since the conflict between Tianchensi and the Taoist sect, although they have not suffered a loss openly, they have also gained a memory - they cannot provoke the Taoist sect, at least not openly. The Taoist priests have a strange mentality.
There is nothing wrong with internal fighting, but if they are bullied by outsiders, they will unite with the outside world as long as they add fuel to the flames. To put it bluntly, the Taoist priests have always spoken and acted from their own standpoint, that is, you can target a certain Taoist priest, but you cannot challenge it.
The entire Taoist class.
Last time Tianchen Division killed a Daoist disciple, should that Daoist disciple deserve to die? In fact, it was Tianchen Division who wanted to establish authority, which probably means that our Tianchen Division has the final say in the inner city and the imperial city, and even Daoist Division is no exception.
.This is not directed at the Taoist master, but at the Taoist sect. The Taoist priests of the Taoist sect are not blind and stupid, so naturally the crowd is very angry.
Who the hell is a mere Tianchensi who dares to climb on top of us?
His Majesty the Emperor chose to protect Tianchensi, not intentionally to slap the Taoist sect in the face, but for the purpose of maintaining order, at least to preserve the deterrence of Tianchensi. In addition, His Majesty the Emperor is also a member of the Taoist priest class, so the Taoist sect did not show up in the end.
Too much research on the surface.
But not pursuing the case openly does not mean that it does not pursue the case secretly, so all the members of the Tianchen Division involved were suddenly killed. The Taoist sect really wanted them to die silently, and no one could find out, so it didn’t count.
It’s difficult. But that goes against the original intention of the Taoist sect. Is the purpose of the Taoist sect to kill people? The purpose of the Taoist sect is to establish prestige, and it must be known to others. That’s why he committed suicide by being shot eight times in a row with the "Dragon Eye Jiajiu" behind his back.
Everyone can see that this is not suicide, and everyone knows why they died, so that they can serve as a warning to the monkeys.
This is the unspoken saying of Taoist priests. We are not ordinary people who are defenseless and can only accept the situation. We want justice. If you don't give it, we will take it ourselves.
Even if he is as noble as the emperor, he cannot say anything more - the Taoist sect has taken a step back, and the emperor must also take a step back. The emperor can be superior to a certain Taoist priest, but he cannot be superior to the entire Taoist priest class.
<
br> In fact, the Taoist sect is relatively abiding by the rules. In the era when the Confucian sect was in power, burning a few palaces, killing a prince, and even the emperor falling into the water were commonplace. The Confucian sect who always shouted loyalty to the emperor was actually the most
If you don't take the emperor seriously, you will kill the emperor the most. It is probably in response to the sentence: "I, I, I, the dog barks at me."
After this incident, the effect of killing chickens to scare monkeys in the Taoist sect was immediate. Tianchensi restrained himself a lot. If there was no substantial evidence, he would not dare to rashly shout and kill the people of the Taoist sect. Under normal circumstances, even if there is substantial evidence, he would probably ask the emperor for permission first.
Instead of rashly using the power of "kill first and report later".
Because of this, although today is not an ordinary situation, it is clear that His Majesty the Emperor will not be asked for instructions, and these seven people have already formed a vague encirclement, but they still do not take action immediately. At least there must be a superficial appearance, and it is best if Qi Xuansu resists, so that they can
Take action legitimately.
Qi Xuansu looked at the man in white: "Who is your Excellency?"
The man in white did not answer, but pointed to the gun in Qi Xuansu's hand: "Anyone who secretly hides firearms in the Imperial City will be punished by death! Anyone who kills people indiscriminately in the Imperial City will be punished by death!"
He paused for a moment and then said: "Even if the person you killed is innocent, it is not the reason for you to replace me. The Imperial City does not pay attention to chivalry and justice."
These few words can be said to be very powerful and preemptive. Ordinary people will inevitably be shocked and feel guilty.
Qi Xuansu was not surprised but smiled instead: "It's not strange for Taoists to talk about laws. It's not strange for Sanfa Division to talk about laws. It's just that you eagles and dogs talk about laws, which makes me want to laugh. One mouthful is a death penalty, how can you learn from "Da Xuan"
How about finding the corresponding relevant provisions in the Law and I commit suicide on the spot? If there are no corresponding relevant provisions, how about you cut out your tongue?"
The man in white looked gloomy and said nothing.
Qi Xuansu continued: "The "Da Xuan Law" contains a clear text: All civilian private owners such as vests, side cards, fire tubes, muskets, artillery, flags, trumpets and other weapons should be prohibited from wearing weapons, a staff of eighty, each piece
Add one level. For private builders, add one level for private crimes. Each crime will be stopped by a hundred sticks, and the flow will be three thousand miles. Those whose fields are not fully completed and cannot be used will not be ignored. They will be ordered to accept officials. Their bows, arrows, spears, knives, and crossbows
Harpoons and harpoons are not prohibited."
"First, carrying firearms is not a capital offense. Second, this law only applies to private individuals, not Taoist sects."
In this category, officials, Taoists and Taoists traveling on business, going to work, returning to their hometowns, and merchants going abroad for trade, etc., if they carry weapons for protection during the journey, they should get a stamp from the Ministry of War in Beijing, and a stamp from the dispatching yamen and the local official outside, and indicate it.
The number of items you bring will be prepared for inspection along the way out of the city, and you will still inform the club where you will go to pay them within a time limit. If you conceal the original ticket and fail to pay it, you will be punished according to the law of violation of the order."
While talking, Qi Xuansu took out a Ministry of War stamp from the Xumi object, held it between his fingers, and shook it lightly - of course Qi Xuansu did not do this himself, someone from below would go to the Ministry of War to inform him,
The Ministry of War will not stick to the neck of the Imperial Government on this kind of matter. It is a routine matter, and will even take the initiative to send people to send stamps, usually within a three-year limit.
Ordinary people don't understand the law. When these men in white open their mouths and are frightened, they become confused. If they take risks, it just gives these men in white a reason to take action.
However, after Qi Xuansu learned from Xu Kou that he was going to be the Taoist priest in charge of the imperial capital, he read the "Da Xuan Lv" carefully in the Gen Garden of the Shang Palace. After he entered the Lian Shen realm, his memory was far better than that of ordinary people. At this time, he naturally believed
Come by mouth.
If he were not proficient in "Da Xuan Law", Qi Xuansu would not have thought of taking advantage of the loopholes by "being born with the same Taoist priest".
In fact, Qi Xuansu doesn't care much about these provisions in his heart, but he must respect and care about them on the surface and hold them above the sacred and inviolable throne. Just like the saying "Princes who break the law are guilty of the same crimes as the common people", no one will take it seriously.
, can we really be guilty of the same crime? If we take it seriously and go to the palace to arrest criminals, we are afraid that our official title will be lost, but no one will deny this statement openly.
Qi Xuansu was aggressive: "You have such a loud tone. Opening your mouth is a capital offense. The "Da Xuan Law" is not your family's family law. You can change it as soon as you say it. Who gave you the power to tamper with the provisions of the "Da Xuan Law"?!
"
This man in white originally wanted to take the lead and show his face, but he didn't expect to expose his butt. They were used to running rampant in the imperial capital and were so arrogant that there was no need to talk about laws, and no one read the "Da Xuan Law". At this time, Qi Xuansu was
After hearing the words, he was speechless.
At this moment, another man in white said: "The Holy One has given us the right to 'kill first and report later'! With the imperial power, we only know how to kill people and don't care about anything else."
Qi Xuansu stared at him: "Well said. Even if you have the right to kill first and report later, there must be a basis, right? There must be an explanation for why you should die? You can't just kill whoever you want, right? Did you kill the prince today?
Killing Mr. Ge tomorrow is also authorized by the imperial power? What criteria do you use to determine whether you should kill him first?
Where’s the afterlude?”
The man in white was also stuck there, speechless.
Qi Xuansu said: "In my opinion, the right to behead first and then punish is because Master Ziji has granted you the right to conduct an on-site trial, that is, to convict and execute the person into one. But the conviction cannot be based on one's own temper, it must be based on evidence."
The third person in white is a woman, and she does not show any weakness: "The basis may not be the "Da Xuan Law"!"
Qi Xuansu smiled and said: "As an official of the Daxuan court, you receive Daxuan's salary and serve the emperor of Daxuan. You are still in the capital of Daxuan. If you don't act in accordance with the "Daxuan Law", then what do you act in accordance with?
Is it the family law of your Tianchen Division? When will family law be above the national law?"
The woman in white turned red and could not argue. If she was trying to be a rogue, of course she could say whatever she wanted, but in the officialdom of the imperial court, speaking carelessly could easily lead to trouble, and the saying that trouble comes from the mouth is never out of date.
The fourth man in white looks the oldest and has more experience. He said: "The Da Xuan Law was also made by people. His Majesty the Emperor's edicts are always higher than the Da Xuan Law."
Qi Xuansu did not deny it, nor did he argue about the big issue between the emperor and the law. He just said: "Then if you look at Zizhi Zhenren's handwriting, you can't say that if there is an edict, there will be an edict, right? When it comes to law,
, the foundation of a country, there is no reason to use oral instructions.”
The man in white was asked again, where could they find the handwriting?
Qi Xuansu's eyes were bright: "That means there is nothing left. If you talk nonsense and open your mouth, why are you worthy of talking about the death penalty? If you can't, how can you be convicted? I think you have violated the "Da Xuan Law", so you should stop showing off and go back.
Only by reading the Da Xuan Lv in its entirety is the canon."
The six people in white were all silent. They wanted to use the two capital crimes to force Qi Xuansu to do something easier. It would be better to force Qi Xuansu to jump over the wall, and then they could let go and catch the cat.
Mouse, in the end, Qi Xuansu put the hat on their heads with a backhand, and naturally they couldn't say the rest of the words.
As for the killing, Qi Xuansu hasn't fired yet, so it doesn't count. Looking at this posture, even if they hold on to him, they will definitely get slapped in the face.
Qi Xuansu sarcastically said: "To put it bluntly, you have become a prostitute and want to build an archway. If you want to kill people, just come and kill them. If you want to kill openly and justly, what is the difference between this and the prostitutes who set up archways?"
