Chapter 17: Devil’s Tricks

Whether Gao Mingyin was threatening Qi Xuansu or making an example of him, he had touched Qi Xuansu's people.

Qi Xuansu was not a pedantic person. Since they had fallen out, he would not stick to the rules. He was also good at playing tricks.

Qi Xuansu first went to see his immediate superior Shi Bingyun, explained the situation, and then asked Shi Bingyun for two documents and one person.

Shi Bingyun was a typical person who trusted people and did not use them if he was suspicious. Since he let Qi Xuansu go ahead and do it, he would give full support, so Qi Xuansu's two requests were all approved.

The two documents were the same Taoist origins that Qi Xuansu had promised Song San before, but Qi Xuansu slightly modified the granting date and set it on October 14, the day before the Lower Yuan Festival.

Because of the Xiayuan Festival, the Jade Emperor Palace was fully preparing for the Xiayuan Festival celebration on October 14th, accumulating a lot of official business, and even a little chaotic. Even if you look into it in detail, it is difficult to tell clearly. It can be said that Shi Bingyun gave an order on October 14th, and the person in charge did not notice it because he was transferred to prepare for the celebration. Of course, this is the worst case. Under normal circumstances, no one will look into it in detail.

One is naturally for Song San, and the other is for Wu Si, who has already died.

Strictly speaking, Song San got the benefit of Wu Si.

In this way, when Wu Si died, he had the identity of a Taoist priest. Although he was only the lowest ninth-grade Taoist priest, the nature was completely different. The Imperial Capital Daofu could legitimately intervene in this case and deal with it on its own without having to transfer it to the court.

In other words, if Gao Mingyin was not caught by Qi Xuansu, it would be fine. As long as there was a handle in Qi Xuansu's hands, Qi Xuansu could immediately take him down without going through the Ministry of Justice and the Dali Temple.

Gao Mingyin fell into Qi Xuansu's hands, which meant that he could not help but cry out to heaven and earth, and no matter how many connections and backgrounds he had, they would be useless. If it was the former Imperial Capital Daofu, Gao Mingyin might have been able to put pressure on Qi Xuansu through the head of the palace and the chief deputy palace master, but now the Imperial Capital Daofu has just been rectified by the Taoist sect, and most people have just been transferred from other places, so in a sense, they are also impenetrable.

Even if Gao Mingyin really has a lot of connections and asked the two real people to personally inquire about this matter, not to mention that Qi Xuansu has Shi Bingyun above him, if Shi Bingyun can't withstand the pressure, he can "reach the ears of heaven" and make a fuss to the Golden Palace, and the real person Donghua will always stand on Qi Xuansu's side.

In addition, Gao Mingyin hired a killer to kill people in the "inn". As long as it can be confirmed, it will be a crime of colluding with a secret society. If it involves a secret society, the Tiangang Hall can intervene openly. Even if there are big shots who want to inquire, Qi Xuansu can use the Tiangang Hall as a shield.

What is the Tiangang Hall? That is Qi Xuansu's "mother's home". Both the big and small hall masters are family members. If they don't support Qi Xuansu, will they support you outsiders? The big figures in the Imperial Capital City are not easy to use in Yujing. After Tiangang Hall enters, the local Daofu must also cooperate.

As for the one person, he is a fourth-grade Taoist priest in the Return to Truth stage, and is also Shi Bingyun's subordinate. Although he has the title of the head, he is dull and has no intention of managing people. He prefers to improve his cultivation, so he is just like Qi Xuansu in the past, just an empty head.

So Shi Bingyun asked him to come to help Qi Xuansu. Qi Xuansu's request is also very simple. Please ask this colleague to protect Xu Feiying's safety in the next few days.

Xu Feiying herself has the realm of the Return to Truth stage, plus a person who is a little stronger than her in the Return to Truth stage. It is not easy for the killers of the "inn" to take action again, unless the heavenly man takes action personally.

Of course, there are many hidden talents in the Imperial Capital, and there are many celestial beings. However, it is not a small amount to ask a celestial being to help. If it is against a Taoist, you have to pay more.

However, it is more likely that the "Inn" will not accept such a deal.

Qi Xuansu's master did die at the hands of the "Inn" assassin. Zhang Yuelu and Qi Xuansu have also been attacked by the "Inn" assassins, but there is a premise that the buyer is also a Taoist. In the final analysis, it is still an internal fight in the Taoist sect. The "Inn" plays the role of "knife". The parties generally do not care too much about the "Inn". At most, they will beat the assassin to death and finally go to the buyer behind the scenes to settle the account.

However, if an outsider hires a killer to kill a Taoist through the "Inn", that is a different nature. The "Inn" bears a great risk, and it is not completely impossible to accept it, but it must pay a lot of money.

After arranging these, Qi Xuansu asked Song San to stay in the Jade Emperor Palace for the next few days, and called Ke Qingqing and Wang Chongnian.

"Master." Ke Qingqing and Wang Chongnian came to Qi Xuansu's signing room together.

Qi Xuansu went straight to the point and said, "I just checked it out. Because "Five Stone Powder" is toxic, taking an overdose may cause poisoning and death, so Jinque once issued a resolution to ban and destroy "Five Stone Powder". After coming to the Imperial Capital, I found that many people have the habit of taking "Five Stone Powder", calling it the demeanor of celebrities, which violates the resolution of Jinque. Since we are rectifying the atmosphere, we can't fall behind in this aspect. I decided to hold a publicity conference on this aspect to warn the world. "

Ke Qingqing was still young and was slightly startled. She didn't understand Qi Xuansu's intention.

After all, Wang Chongnian was much older and experienced, and he already understood what Qi Xuansu was going to do.

Qi Xuansu continued, "Just posting notices or sending people to spread the word will have limited effect. As the saying goes, hearing is not believing, seeing is believing. Therefore, we need to let the people see with their own eyes what the consequences of taking "Five Stone Powder" are, so that it can serve as a warning to the people."

At this point, Ke Qingqing also understood.

Qi Xuansu said, "Go and capture a few people who often take "Five Stone Powder", along with the people in the Hell, make a sign with their names and insert it behind their backs, then take off their shirts, expose the rotten sores, tie them to wooden stakes, put them at the gate of the Jade Emperor Palace, and call the people to have a look. "

Wang Chongnian had completely understood Qi Xuansu's intention and said, "Don't worry, sir."

Qi Xuansu added, "Put it at the gate of the Jade Emperor's Palace for three days. Aren't they immune to cold and heat? Can't they wear new clothes? Take off the clothes and save trouble. Then notify the storytellers under the name of Qingping Bookstore to come and see it. After returning, compile it into a storybook and spread it all to me. Teahouses, restaurants, and brothels, no one can be spared. Whoever has the most exciting storybook will be rewarded. The first prize is 300 Taiping coins, the second prize is 200 Taiping coins, and the third prize is 100 Taiping coins."

The Taoist sect pays great attention to public opinion. The open responsibility of Qingping Bookstore is to print books and issue court reports. In secret, it also has another responsibility, which is to pay attention to the trend of public opinion and provide corresponding guidance.

The human heart is like water, how deep it is, and the people's movement is like smoke, how chaotic it is.

If we don't pay attention to the human heart and public opinion, it will provide soil for the development of secret societies and shake the foundation of the Taoist sect.

The specific practice of the Taoist sect is to fully master the industries of storytelling, drama, and folk art, and cultivate a large number of storytellers. Through these storytellers who go deep into the grassroots, they guide public opinion through various stories.

Qingping Bookstore is directly under the ancestral temple, but because of the different situations in different places, it is also under the command of local prefectures.

With Qi Xuansu's position as the head, he originally had no right to ask, but Shi Bingyun could. Now Shi Bingyun is happy to be a hands-off shopkeeper and agree to all of Qi Xuansu's requests, allowing Qi Xuansu to play his role. Other heads are also happy to give Qi Xuansu face. Qi Xuansu can naturally act beyond his authority, and the titles of "First Head" and "Tenth Deputy Head of the House" are more and more worthy of the name.

Wang Chongnian replied: "Yes."

Qi Xuansu doesn't need to explain many things, Wang Chongnian naturally knows where the focus is.

Qi Xuansu added: "Also, send people to keep a close eye on those storytellers. If anyone goes to cause trouble for the storytellers, arrest them immediately and take them directly to the prison for strict interrogation. Make sure to find out who sent them to cause trouble and make them give a confession."

Wang Chongnian asked: "What if they are government officials? For example, the Wucheng Bingmasi Yamen, or the three-shift Yamen runners, and the Qingluan Guards."

Qi Xuansu said: "Then reveal your identity, reason with them, make them feel afraid, and mainly protect our own people. The people will see it and spread it by word of mouth."

Wang Chongnian was shocked.

Of course, taking "Wu Shi San" is not a big crime, and naturally Gao Mingyin can't be harmed, but Qi Xuansu's move is to trample Gao Mingyin's face. Don't you, Gao Mingyin, want to use me as a stepping stone to maintain your dignity? If you kill my people, I will throw your son out, and don't leave any dignity for the son of the yamen, and make him a joke, so that everyone can laugh at you.

This pushed Gao Mingyin to the edge of the cliff. He has been rampant in North City for many years, and he has many enemies, but they dare not jump out because of his accumulated power. Now Qi Xuansu slapped Gao Mingyin. If Gao Mingyin retreated and showed his weakness, then his enemies would jump out and stand on Qi Xuansu's side, and immediately form a situation of everyone pushing down the wall, and even save Qi Xuansu the effort of searching for evidence himself.

If Gao Mingyin did not retreat and insisted on fighting Qi Xuansu to the end, then there would be more flaws and handles exposed. This was exactly what Qi Xuansu wanted. As long as Qi Xuansu caught one, he would dare to take Gao Mingyuan down.

Ke Qingqing said: "That would be a big deal, and maybe the elders would hear about it."

"I'm afraid it won't be big." Qi Xuansu sneered, "The demons and monsters in the dark cannot stand the light, and they will die when they see the light. As long as they are thrown under the sun, in full view of the public, they will die."

Ke Qingqing looked at this boss again, and she was actually a little afraid.

The reason why Mr. Gao dared to compete with his boss was probably because he thought his boss was a son of a noble family, with a bright and clear mind, and didn't know any tricks. But now it seems that Mr. Gao made a wrong calculation.
