Chapter 49: Impartial Law Enforcement

As the saying goes, if the master is humiliated, the minister dies. The equality of Taoism is only superficial after all. It is more about using equality to fight against the principles of Confucianism, but the core of the bones cannot get rid of the Confucianism.

The unity of the three religions is not a lie after all.

Chen Jianchou naturally understood this truth and stood up slowly.

He also understood why Qi Xuansu was unwilling to speak, because this young man had been biting the word "law" tightly, using the law as a shield. No matter what the truth is, no matter what it is in private, it is not good to do it in public.

If Qi Cixi speaks rashly, he will be selfless and selfish.

Others don't care whether you are right or wrong. Many times, I am weak and I am right.

So Qi Cixi didn't speak.

But Chen Jianchou had to speak up, and said coldly: "You are so arrogant, you don't even take the second seat sent by Jinque seriously, I really don't know who can win your attention?"

The young man turned his eyes to Chen Jianchou: "Where did this hero who speaks up for justice come from? You are speaking for the second seat Qi, are you the people of Qi's side?"

Chen Jianchou said: "We are from the Water Palace."

"That's really amazing." The young man said, "It's a pity that there is only one sun above Borneo. As we all know, the sun is fire and the moon is water, so the Water Palace is not as good as it. Fire Palace. "

Chen Jianchou raised his eyebrows: "You mean, the Master of the Mansion is above the Master of the Mansion?"

The young man's smile froze slightly, and then he recovered as before: "The Master of the Mansion is in seclusion, so naturally the Master of the Mansion is respected."

Chen Jianchou said in a deep voice: "Even the Master of the Mansion is in seclusion. You know the news. You are really from a good family. In this case, don't hide it. Report your number."

Just then, a group of people came out of the restaurant. The leader was a Taoist priest in charge. He was a bit awe-inspiring, followed by a team of black-armored spiritual officials, which made people afraid.

When the young man saw this person, he no longer entangled with Chen Jianchou, but hurried to greet him and took the initiative to salute: "Master Huang."

Master Huang politely returned the greeting: "Young Master Sun."

This kind of young man naturally has followers when he goes out. His followers have gone to report the news just now.

Then, Mr. Sun pointed at the female Taoist priest who had committed the crime and said, "She was the one who committed the crime." Then he pointed at Qi Xuansu and the other two and said, "They are all accomplices and are from the Taoist government. You have to make a decision for us ordinary people. We cannot let these Taoist parasites abuse their power and harm the reputation of the Taoist government."

Huang Zhushi nodded slightly and looked at the people, "All of you, follow me."

Chen Jianchou asked, "Who are you?"

Huang Zhushi cleared his throat and said, "I am Huang Jiaoqing, the head of Fengxian Hall, who is responsible for investigating the illegal affairs of Taoist priests in Shenglong Prefecture. Come on, take these people down and take them back for questioning. Anyone who dares to resist the law will be punished more severely!"

Others are afraid of Taoist priests. They are also polite to each other, but Beichen Hall and Fengxian Hall, which are specialized 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 are afraid. People from these two Taoist halls are inevitably arrogant.

As soon as he finished speaking, the spiritual officials behind him rushed forward and were about to take down several people. ..

Young Master Sun clapped his hands and smiled, "That's right, this is the great master of the people of Shenglong Prefecture."

Chen Jianchou raised his hand to signal the spiritual officials to wait, and repeated again: "We are from the Water Palace."

"What's wrong with the Water Palace?" Huang Zhushi said solemnly, "Can the people of the Water Palace ignore the law? Can the people of the Water Palace commit crimes in the street? Can the people of the Water Palace fight against the Dao Mansion? Can they fight against the Dao Sect? You still know that you are from the Water Palace. You are discrediting the Water Palace and even more so the Dao Mansion. Do you know? Don't mention Qi Cixi to me. I tell you, even if Qi Cixi came in person today, he would not protect you. Now, follow me honestly, and what awaits you will be the severe punishment of the Dao Sect's laws!"

This remark is really righteous, and it is easily elevated to the level of fighting against the Dao Sect. It's really a big hat.

Otherwise, how can you say that the tongue can also crush people to death? The key is to kill people without blood.

Qi Xuansu suddenly remembered a sentence, "You are in me, I am in you, and this is where all the bad things in the world go wrong."

Foreign enemies are not scary, the scariest ones are these own people.

Logically speaking, this Huang Zhushi should be considered his subordinate.

Because these Daotang branches located in local Daofu are under dual leadership, vertically under the leadership of the main hall far away in Yujing, and horizontally under the leadership of the local Daofu. Because the second deputy master is in charge of laws and disciplines, Fengxian Hall and Beichen Hall are also subordinates of the second deputy master.

It's just that Qi Xuansu has been here for too short a time, and has only made a few public appearances. This Huang Zhushi has not seen Qi Xuansu and doesn't even recognize Qi Xuansu. At this time, listening to his words, he thought that Qi Cixi was backing him up behind the scenes.

Ke Qingqing was usually called the Little Second Seat, and she was like the incarnation of Qi Xuansu. Everyone who saw her had to be polite to her. She had never been so angry before. At this moment, she was furious and pointed at Huang Jiaoqing: "Huang Jiaoqing, right? I will remember you. Don't regret it."

Mr. Sun said indifferently: "Master Huang is upright and incorruptible. What is there to regret? How could he be afraid of your threat?"

At this time, the female Taoist priest who had beaten people at the beginning was completely panicked and had no idea how things could develop to this point.

Qi Xuansu just watched coldly.

He was enlightened.

In the past, he came into contact with Li Changge and Yao Pei. These people were very high-level and had a big structure. They would not engage in such unsightly tricks. The slightly inferior Li Tianzhen and his like had a different style. They were decisive and decisive. The word "ruthless" is applied throughout. Now that I have seen the methods of these local emperors, I have found a new way, and my ability to blame them and use their strength can be regarded as proficient.

After seeing it almost, Qi Xuansu finally said: "Didn't Spirit Officer Ding Chou take over the entire 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 Grand Immortal in charge is in charge of military affairs. After entering the state of martial law, all spiritual officers must obey the unified dispatch of the two first-grade spiritual officers, and the two first-grade spiritual officers are directly responsible to the Grand Immortal in charge. Now the Grand Immortal is in charge of military affairs. The master of the mansion cannot go out, so Qi Cixi takes on some of the responsibilities under the orders of the master. This is something that both the king and Chief Chen agree with. Qi Cixi declares martial law, deploys all spiritual officers, adds guards, and strengthens patrols. Organizing searches, implementing curfews, restricting entry and exit to the city, unified dispatching, unified command, can Fengxian Tang be an exception? "

Huang Jiaoqing's face changed slightly, and he looked at Qi Xuansu: "I haven't asked for advice yet. Who is your Excellency?"

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 the consequences?"

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 they also 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 their strength, they could not move him at all. Instead, they raised their arms and ejected the four spiritual officers.

After the spirit 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 spirit officer come and lock me up."

Huang Jiaoqing was horrified in his heart, but he still had to keep his face tense and 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 spirit officers knew they were not opponents, they all protected their boss.

Qi Xuansu stepped forward, 365 body spirits appeared, and then threw all these spiritual officials out one by one, 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 hurriedly took the initiative to remedy the situation: "The flood washed away the Dragon King Temple, and one family did not recognize the other." . Speaking of which, Chief Huang is Qi Cixi’s subordinate, and they are all members of the same family.”

Qi Xuansu asked: "We don't talk about the law now? The law was shouted loudly just now, why don't we shout 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 corners of his lips: "My name is Qi Xuansu, and I am the 'that Qici seat' that Mr. Sun calls him."

In an instant, their faces were as white as snow, and they were uglier than crying.

Qi Xuansu ordered: "Let Ding Chou Lingguan come and take all these Lingguan away. As for Principal Huang, I don't ask whether you handled this matter right or wrong. I only want to say one thing, you are under martial law. Those who call spiritual officials without authorization will be suspended from their duties from now on, pending disposition.”

Ke Qingqing took the order and left.

Huang Jiaoqing shook his head and did not dare to refute. If Qi Xuansu brought up the matter of beating people, he could indeed refute one or two things, or even cry out for injustice, which would give him a lot of room for maneuver. However, Qi Xuansu did not mention this at all, and directly held him accountable for privately calling the spiritual officials. This was a big taboo, and there was no such thing. There is no room for rebuttal.

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 ordered Chen Jianchou: "Send a few alchemists to trace back 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 attacks someone will be taken away as well."
