Chapter 48 King's Law

Soon, another woman came down from the upstairs, her face full of anger, and it seemed that she was the one who hit someone.

It was also strange that the person who was hit was smiling, but the person who hit him was furious, as if he had suffered a great loss.

Qi Xuansu retracted his gaze and said nothing more.

In Yujing, such things are rarely seen. It’s not that Yujing’s atmosphere is good, but Yujing’s status is too special. Everyone is cautious and afraid of getting into trouble. On the contrary, there is no shortage of local emperors in the local area. They are used to lawlessness. All kinds of outrageous things emerge one after another. Some local emperors even bring this habit to Yujing, such as Wang Danqing provoking Qi Xuansu.

At the beginning, Qi Xuansu thought about it for several days and nights and couldn’t figure it out. Why did Wang Danqing dare to take action in Yujing, or in Ziwei Hall? And use the spiritual officer! Little National Master Li Changge didn’t dare to do this. Later, he understood that this was because he was used to being domineering and lawless in the local area, and he couldn’t change it for a while. He really regarded Yujing as his home.

Later, the result was obvious. Donghua Zhenren personally handled the matter, and Wang Jiaohe had nothing to say. In the end, Wang Danqing was fined 30,000 Taiping money, demoted from a fifth-rank Taoist priest to a seventh-rank Taoist priest, and banned from entering Yujing for three years. For Wang Jiaohe's sake, he was not sentenced to confinement or labor. This was because Wang Danqing had no intention of climbing up the Taoist sect. If it were Qi Xuansu, who wanted to make progress, his future would have been ruined.

Qi Xuansu continued to drink, and the drama between the two was still going on.

The young man who was beaten down the stairs earlier said calmly: "I beat someone."

The woman glared at him: "I beat you, you lecher!"

The young man brushed his clothes and smiled: "In broad daylight, in the open, you beat someone for no reason. I want to ask, is there any law?"

The woman was even more angry: "Because you deserve to be beaten!"

The young man still smiled: "Whether I should be beaten or not can be judged by the government or the Daofu, but not by you. You can't just say whatever you want. If you say I should be beaten, I should be beaten? Don't you care about the law?"

The woman was also very angry and said something without thinking: "I am a Daofu person, can I beat you?"

When Qi Xuansu heard this, he knew that the woman had been fooled and fell into a trap set by others.

As expected, the young man smiled even brighter: "Okay, so you are from the Taoist temple, that means you know the law and break it, and you also want to use your power to suppress others."

The woman immediately realized that she had been fooled, her face flushed, and she pointed at the young man: "You, you are shameless!"

"I am shameless?" The young man said, "What did I do to be shameless? But you, relying on your status as a Taoist priest, dare to commit crimes openly. If I report to the Taoist temple, I don't know what crime I will be guilty of?"

The female Taoist priest was so angry that she trembled all over: "You said those dirty words first, I beat you What's wrong? Even if we go to Yujing Fengxian Hall, I'm still right!"

"Dirty words? Who heard it?" The young man said innocently, "Fengxian Hall can't just listen to your one-sided words. But you did it, and so many people here saw it, so you can't deny it."

Qi Xuansu put down his wine glass and said softly, "This man is not a commoner, I don't know which family he is from. But that female Taoist priest, judging from her clothes, she should not have any background."

Of course, not all Taoists are from aristocratic families, and there are many people who come from poor backgrounds. For example, Qi Xuansu, who had no parents to rely on since childhood and didn't know who his parents were, was adopted and raised by the Taoist Palace. Although he rose to prominence later because of Qi Niang and a series of opportunities, it is really unreasonable to say that he is a child of aristocratic family. He can't be a member of aristocratic family alone.

Many spectators around were watching the excitement, and they didn't mind the big deal. The reputation of the Taoist Mansion was good or bad, and it would not satisfy everyone. Many people felt that it was a dog-eat-dog situation, and some people felt that the evil would be punished by the evil, and more people were timid and afraid of trouble. Anyway, no one dared to stand up to help the female Taoist priest.

Chen Jianchou lost both his parents when he was young, and he was used to the coldness of the world. Later, he joined the Qingluan Guard and saw a lot of dark things. He couldn't manage it, and he couldn't manage it. He had already worn out some of his blood and spirit. At this time, he just waited and watched.

Ke Qingqing was different. She had always been in the Imperial Capital Taoist Mansion, and was still under the command of Shi Bingyun. Later, she followed Qi Xuansu. She was a standard flower garden Taoist priest, and she was still a little naive. At this time, she couldn't help but say, "It's not bad."

The young man's eyes immediately moved to Ke Qingqing, and also swept Qi Xuansu and Chen Jianchou.

Chen Jianchou was not a big shot in the past, and few people knew that Xu Jiaorong was his adoptive mother, so she was naturally omitted. As for Qi Xuansu, he only showed up at the welcoming dinner, and then he started to tour the countries. Not many people in Shenglong Mansion knew him.

In fact, there were not many young people at the dinner that day. Most of them were the heads of the local bosses, or envoys and representatives, all of whom were older people. Moreover, not everyone could toast Qi Xuansu with a glass of wine. Most people could only watch from afar and had a vague impression.

Even Chen Jianqiu had to rely on Qi Muyu's introduction to meet Qi Xuansu alone.

The second deputy palace master was already a big shot in the eyes of ordinary people, the kind that was unattainable. Not to mention these people, even Qi Xuansu, who followed the seven-member team to enter Jinling Mansion and was considered half an imperial angel, only met the second deputy palace master Li Tianlan when the final plan was revealed.

Since he didn't recognize Qi Xuansu, he naturally wouldn't recognize his secretary Ke Qingqing.

Therefore, the young master did not have the slightest fear and said playfully: "When you see injustice on the road, you roar. Dare I ask this girl, are you also a Taoist priest in the Taoist government?"

Ke Qingqing asked: "So what if it is? So what if it's not? The truth is the truth, and right and wrong are right and wrong. Do they have to differ from person to person?"

The young master smiled and said: "That's true, but the principles in this world really vary from person to person. If the girl is not a Taoist priest, I will just think that the girl is ignorant of the inside story and talking nonsense. But if the girl is Taoist priest, then I have to think that the girl will use her power to protect her colleagues. I still say that everything must be done according to the law. No one heard what she said, but it is just one-sided words and does not count as evidence. But she hit me, so many people saw it, and the girl also saw it, and the evidence is solid. "

Ke Qingqing narrowed his eyes: "Who are you?"

"Does it matter who I am?" The young master smiled lightly, "Does your Taoist government still want to retaliate afterwards?"

Ke Qingqing said: "What a saying, 'Your Taoist Mansion'. Even in the Imperial Capital of the Central Plains, not many people would dare to say that, but you dare to say it. I think you are also from a good background. Don't hide it." , It seems that our Taoist government is oppressing the common people, and even the robe you are wearing cannot pretend to be a common people. "

From beginning to end, Qi Xuansu just watched with cold eyes.

This man knew that the Taoist sect valued reputation, and had always portrayed himself as the weak one. It seemed that the Taoist sect persecuted him, and it was a bit interesting to occupy the moral high ground and be condescending. But Ke Qingqing was right. This robe, which costs hundreds of dollars, cannot pretend to be a common people. The power of his words is not that strong, and the moral high ground under his feet is not so stable. But if it's just to confuse people, it's more than enough.

Ke Qingqing also understood this, and instead of using his power to overwhelm others, he said: "You can sue Feng Xiantang immediately, so why bother? If you have any conditions, just tell them directly."

The young master smiled and said, "This girl is still sensible. By the way, you haven't asked her her name yet?"

Ke Qingqing asked: "Is this necessary?"

"Of course it is necessary." Most of the young master's attention seemed to be transferred to Ke Qingqing, while Qi Xuansu and Chen Jianchou glanced at Qi Xuansu and Chen Jianchou from the corner of his eyes. What only made him a little surprised was that the older one was just drinking by himself, while the younger one had an expressionless face, as if it had nothing to do with him.

A little strange.

But it doesn't matter, these Taoist people may not be very capable, but one after another, they are all turtles, and their ability to be as immovable as a mountain has been practiced to 100%, unlike the Jianghu people who explode at the slightest.

The young master said: "My request is very simple. The two girls toast me a glass of wine and apologize. I will pretend that what just happened never happened. We have turned hostility into friendship. We will never know each other without fighting."

Ke Qingqing said coldly: "What does it have to do with me? Why should I toast you?"

"Girl...are you not agreeing?" The young master looked at Ke Qingqing with a playful smile, "Then when we meet in Fengxian Hall, what is the crime of committing murder in the street? It should be not a small crime. And, girl, you also run away Don’t fall off.”

Chen Jianchou curled his lips. In his words, this man had secretly replaced "beating" with "murder", so as to confuse right and wrong.

Ke Qingqing laughed angrily and said: "Fengxian Tang is run by your family? You can't run away if you say you can't run away?".

The young master said: "Of course Feng Xiantang is not run by our family, but the evidence is conclusive and you really can't run away. What, you are not convinced?"

Ke Qingqing said: "Of course I am not convinced. Wherever you go, you must speak the word 'reason'. I don't care what your background is or what the relationship between Feng Xiantang and you is. Jinque is determined to rectify the Taoist government and the new sect." The second deputy palace master is here to be in charge of the discipline of the sect. When the truth is finally revealed, we will not be able to spare those of you who act recklessly!"

"Are you using the second deputy palace master to oppress me?" the young master laughed and said, "What's wrong with the second deputy palace master? Can you do whatever you want if you have the power? There is no evidence and you can punish whoever you want? Is there really no king's law? It's really just a A courtier to the Emperor? Don’t forget, the Taoist Palace is still the head of the palace, not just a seat of honor.”

Chen Jianchou glanced at Qi Xuansu secretly.

Qi Xuansu had no expression on his face and was still drinking.
