Master Gao, Gao Mingyin, is running rampant in the northern city of the Imperial Capital. He has countless properties, has a huge backer behind him, and his hands and eyes can reach the sky. Naturally, he has guards. However, most of these guards are posted outside the building. At this time, they have been captured by the spiritual officials of the Imperial Palace.
Next. Even if there are one or two people with high cultivation level, they are no match for Qi Xuansu.
At this time, Gao Mingyin was just alone. Although there were a lot of guests in the house, they were all people who wanted to follow the trend. If he was doing well, everyone would naturally flatter him. But if he lost power, these people would have done nothing if they didn't come to add insult to injury.
In the love of incense, if Master Qi gives a call, everyone will cut off their relationship.
Gao Mingyin remained silent, not because he didn't know how to argue, but because the general situation was such that talking too much was useless. If he made a lot of noise like a shrew, it would only add to the laughter, so it would be better to leave some dignity for himself.
As for his behind-the-scenes backer, I'm afraid he is also very worried.
There are only two possibilities for Qi Xuansu to appear here.
One possibility is that Qi Xuansu escaped from the pursuit of the seven heavenly beings, which means that the secret has been leaked. The Imperial Palace will definitely not give up. If Tianchen Division wants to deal with the questioning from the Imperial Palace, they must contact him as soon as possible.
If he denies the relationship, why would he come to stand up for him? Doesn’t this make the matter solid?
Another possibility is that Qi Xuansu had made arrangements to kill these seven heavenly beings in turn. Such a loss would definitely shock the Tianchen Division and then reach the heaven. If His Majesty the Emperor personally intervenes, all the details will be revealed.
Whether he is using official weapons to conduct private affairs or dealing with Taoist sects, a big turmoil will arise in an instant. His backers will try their best to make up for it, and it will not be enough. How can he have the thoughts to take care of him? ??
This is the general trend, and it cannot be resisted by his little manpower.
If it was the second possibility, why did Qi Xuansu kill seven heavenly beings? Gao Mingyin thought that he should have used the power of the Imperial Palace.
Logically speaking, he, a small boss, would never have such authority. No wonder it was because Deputy Palace Master Shi trusted him too much. He actually granted everything he asked for and entrusted him with.
I am like the puppet fool in the play, roaming around freely all day long. Although it cannot be said that all the real power of the second deputy palace master has been handed over to this little principal, most of it has been stolen by this little principal, just like the person around the emperor.
A sycophant, a fox pretends to be a tiger, and gives orders to the government and the public. No one dares to disobey.
If you use the authority of the Deputy Palace Master, setting up an ambush and killing seven heavenly beings will be very promising. After all, the Taoist sect not only has Taoist priests, but also spiritual officials and various creations and firearms. As long as they are arranged properly, heavenly beings can also kill them.
The key point is that Tianchensi is not a member of the Taoist sect. If there is internal fighting among the Taoist sect, neither the second deputy palace master, the chief deputy palace master, nor even the real person in charge of the palace would dare to call upon the Taoist power rashly, because the Taoist priests and spirits of the Taoist government
Officials are not private soldiers. Once they are used, they will be used as huge leverage in the future. Therefore, they only dare to use their own close confidants or take action themselves. Take the Fire Zhenwu Temple as an example, that is "Heavenly Court" taking action, not
A certain deputy head of the palace mobilized the Taoist priests and spiritual officials of Jiangnan Daofu to take action. Could it be that Jiangnan Daofu is not as good as the "Heavenly Court"? But the internal affairs of Jiangnan Daofu are
Big men are just afraid of giving others leverage.
But it's different when dealing with outsiders. Tianchensi, who has a grudge against the Taoist sect, can let go of his hands and feet. Not only can he use his own people from the Taoist government, but he doesn't have to be secretive and restrain his hands and feet. At this time, the power of the Taoist government will appear.
Out.
In this case, what he was dealing with was not a minor chief, but half a deputy palace master. No wonder everyone in the Imperial Palace called this person the "tenth deputy palace master."
Ke Qingqing stopped talking nonsense and waved his hand: "Take it away."
The two spiritual officers immediately stepped forward and walked towards Gao Mingyin.
Gao Mingyin did not struggle in vain or run around. He just stood there, not looking at the two spiritual officials, but staring at Qi Xuansu.
Although Qi Xuansu never spoke again after handing the file to Ke Qingqing, everyone knew that he was the real person in charge, and Ke Qingqing was just a mouthpiece to speak on his behalf.
Qi Xuansu looked at him with calm eyes, but it was impossible to tell what he was thinking.
Gao Mingyin closed his eyes.
After all, he is just a businessman, not one of those gangsters who licks blood from his knife edge. He will no longer pretend to be ferocious and malicious at this time, nor will he continue to fight in a trapped beast, ultimately losing his life in vain, so he is still willing to admit defeat.
Everyone got out of the way, and the two spiritual officers came to Gao Mingyin unobstructed, lifted up Gao Mingyin one on the left and the other on the right, and then walked out.
Gao Shide didn't come back to his senses until this moment. He just called out "Dad" and wanted to reach out to pull Gao Mingyin's sleeves. However, after seeing the dark ink-like Ling Guan armor, he only reached halfway and completely
Stuck there.
Gao Mingyin allowed Lingguan to hold him up, without looking at his son, and said calmly: "Go back and tell your mother to stay at home and don't move around."
After saying that, he was carried away by the spiritual officer and went directly downstairs.
Qi Xuansu still stood there, looking around again, and then cupped his hands and said: "Qi Xuansu apologizes to you for disturbing your elegance."
Everyone returned the favor with their hands in hand.
The buzzing voice of "don't dare" is endless.
Qi Xuansu said no more, turned around and left.
Ke Qingqing followed closely, followed by the spiritual officials lined up.
There was silence in the banquet hall on the second floor. After a long time, someone whispered: "It's so majestic."
Qi Xuansu went down the stairs and saw the shopkeeper here.
Taiping Inn is originally a Taoist property. Many of the shopkeepers in the main house have high Taoist grades. They are all members of the Taoist family, so the shopkeepers
Neither fearful nor disgusted, but with a bit of enthusiasm as a colleague, he came forward and said, "Master Qi."
Qi Xuansu also had a smile on his face: "Thank you for your cooperation this time, Brother Dao."
"Wherever this is, we are all a family." The shopkeeper also smiled, "Mr. Gao held the banquet here as a demonstration, but since he wants to give peace money, we have no reason to refuse."
Qi Xuansu said: "It's just convenient for us to get people."
The two exchanged some more pleasantries, and Qi Xuansu said goodbye: "I just took Gao Mingyin, and I have so many clues. I'm afraid it will be another sleepless night, and I'll bother Dao Brother again another day."
"Master Qi, go slowly." The shopkeeper walked Qi Xuansu to the door.
This time, of course, not only Gao Mingyin was arrested, but also his mastermind Jiang Zhupo, as well as a number of officials involved in the matter, including the leader of the Beggar Clan in Beicheng.
As for why Gao Shide, Gao Mingyin's son, was not arrested, it is not that Gao Shide is innocent, but that Gao Mingyin paid great attention to protecting Gao Shide and did not let Gao Shide get involved in these things. Most of the things Gao Shide committed were civil-related, such as bullying men and dominating women.
Etc., although the crime is extremely heinous, it is not within the scope of authority and responsibility of the Imperial Palace. It is a matter that should be dealt with by the Shuntian Palace.
As for what happened in the Green Place, the Madam said that the beggar gang wanted to see Gao Shide's face, but there was no actual evidence at all. Gao Shide, a dandy in the yamen, had no idea what was going on here, and his incompetence actually helped him avoid disaster.
.
The first time Qi Xuansu arrested Gao Shide, he used the two charges of "Wu Shi San" and obstructing official duties, not that he was related to Lucuixia.
Because of this, Qi Xuansu still released Gao Shide.
The stronger the opponent, the less likely they are to leave any obvious flaws.
Qi Xuansu would not give anyone a thumbs up at this time. If someone labeled him as someone who had crossed the line, the situation that was originally clear would become muddy again.
It's just that if it doesn't go on the scale, it won't weigh four ounces, and if it goes on the scale, it won't weigh one thousand kilograms.
Qi Xuansu kept putting these seemingly insignificant "little things" on the scale, and put them on the bright side, which is like four ounces of weight. Qi Xuansu's strength is very small, but this steelyard can turn Qi Xuansu's strength into a huge wave. Qi Xuansu knows how to do this
If you move, others will naturally do it, so Qi Xuansu must guard against it and not give others a chance to attack him.
Thinking of this, Qi Xuansu sat in the carriage.
In addition to Ke Qingqing, there was another person in the carriage, who was the main criminal arrested this time, Gao Mingyin.
The interior of the carriage is not a Western layout, but an authentic Eastern layout.
The so-called Western layout means that the door is opened on one side of the carriage, and there are four seats in the carriage, sitting in pairs.
In the Eastern layout, the carriages are surrounded by three
One is missing, the entrance and exit of the carriage is right behind the driver, and there are only three seats inside.
Qi Xuansu took the main seat in the middle, Gao Mingyin and Ke Qingqing sat on the left and right, and the person in charge of driving was a spiritual official.
Qi Xuansu had no interest in talking to Gao Mingyin. He wanted to close his eyes and rest his mind, but at this moment, the "Chu Zhen Sutra" on his waist lit up.
Qi Xuansu did not shy away from the two of them and opened the sutra.
Zhang Yuelu's voice came out: "Is it done?"
"It's over." Qi Xuansu responded, "Everything is fine."
Zhang Yuelu responded and stopped talking about this matter or other confidential matters. She just talked about some common gossip. With her conservative character, she would naturally not say sweet words that would make outsiders tired after hearing them.
Ke Qingqing sat upright, looking at her nose and nose, but she still vaguely saw the figure of the proud girl from the corner of her eye, and her heart was full of reverence.
From Xuan Sheng to the Sixth Generation Grand Master, no one was a woman, but there were four wives. Therefore, many Taoist women hope to have a female Grand Master to achieve the balance of yin and yang. However, as of now, Cihang
If the real person is not named Zhang, there is no way to integrate the Zhengyi Alliance. I am afraid that there is little hope. The most likely possibility is to choose one of the two from Donghua Zhenren and Qingwei Zhenren to serve as the Seventh Generation Grand Master.
This greatly disappointed many women, and they had to place their hopes on the next generation, that is, the eighth generation disciples.
However, among the outstanding figures of this generation of disciples, yin flourished and yang declined. Only Li Changge was left as a man. Zhang Yuelu and Yao Pei were both women. Zhang Yuelu was the most famous. The key is that Zhang Yuelu's surname was Zhang. Without the disadvantage of Cihang, he was
The direct disciples of Master Cihang can gather the forces of the Zhang family and Cihang's lineage, truly integrate the Zhengyi dynasty into one place, and compete for the eighth generation master.
Therefore, over the years, Zhang Yuelu and his disciples have become somewhat of Taoist female leaders, whether they like it or not, and have even transcended the boundaries of the three Taoisms. Quanzhen Taoism may have had a different intention in pushing Yao Pei out this time.
As for the Taiping Road, they have never believed in this. The so-called fairness is not something you ask for, but something you fight for. If you don't go through the test of blood and fire, you can just rely on shouting a few morally correct slogans and relying on other people's initiative.
Giving in and getting charity is not stable. You can give in today because the situation is peaceful and many people don't mind showing the so-called grace. If tomorrow the situation becomes stretched and difficult to cope with, and the veil of tenderness is torn, others will
What if you don’t want to give in? What can you do?
In fact, Zhang Yuelu is like Taiping Dao. She doesn't believe in this. She only believes in meritocracy, and the capable ones will be promoted and the mediocre ones will be demoted. She doesn't want to be placed on high expectations at all, but the "public opinion" is like this, which often makes her feel like a needle on her back.
She even came up with the idea that if she did not become the Grand Master, but became the Grand Master's wife, she really didn't know how "public opinion" would be. Would she be regarded as a sinner by some crazy people?
