Qin Xiao rebuked the Taoist priest in the street, and many people around him looked shocked.
Those Taoist priests obviously did not expect that Qin Xiao would actually retaliate. One of the Taoist priests was startled, then showed a cold and stern expression. He rushed forward with a lunge, his right hand formed into a palm, and he slapped Qin Xiao directly with his palm.
Qin Xiao felt that when the opponent took out his palm, there was a slight wind from the palm. It seemed that he was still a martial artist. He had practiced martial arts and did not dodge or dodge. When he saw that the Taoist priest was about to slap his chest with his palm, Qin Xiao suddenly struck out with his left hand.
Lifting up, he caught the Taoist priest's wrist first. Without hesitation, he swung his arm violently and let go of his hand. The Taoist priest was thrown out like a stone. He was about to fall to the ground before he saw it.
He slapped his palms on the ground, turned his body, and stood still, but there was a look of surprise on his face.
The old Taoist priest was obviously surprised. He frowned and then winked at the other three Taoist priests.
The three Taoist priests received instructions from the old Taoist priest and approached Qin Xiaobao in the shape of "pin".
Qin Xiao didn't want to use force in public, so he raised his hand and said, "Wait a minute!"
The three Taoist priests paused. The old Taoist priest sneered and said, "Do you want to kneel down and beg for mercy?"
"You were at fault for what happened today. Fortunately, it didn't cause too much trouble. I don't want to get entangled with you." Qin Xiao said calmly: "You leave immediately. This matter ends here. If you still want to
You're bullying others, but don't blame me for being rude."
"You're welcome?" The old Taoist priest raised his hand to stroke his beard and said coldly: "You have delayed our affairs, which means you have delayed the affairs of the palace. If you want to let it go, you are really wishful thinking. If you want to survive, just surrender and follow us.
If you go back, you may be able to save a life."
Qin Xiao sighed and said, "Can you be gentler?"
"Dream." The old Taoist priest said angrily: "Beat me hard until you die."
The three Taoist priests did not hesitate and rushed forward together.
Qin Xiao was not polite. This time, he stepped forward, raised his foot, and kicked the person in the middle of his stomach. He thought that the Taoist priest who had used the palm before had a few more blows, and these people should also be able to do it.
There were some methods, but who knew that the Taoist priest didn't even make a move to dodge when he was kicked, and was hit directly in the lower abdomen. He screamed "Ouch" and was kicked away.
The Taoist priest on the left punched him, and Qin Xiao grabbed the man's wrist with one hand, and slapped the Taoist priest's elbow hard with the other. There was only a "click" sound, and the Taoist priest screamed, and the bones of his hand were broken.
The Taoist priest on the right took the opportunity to pounce from behind. Qin Xiao didn't even look back. He swung his tail and kicked the Taoist priest in the crotch. The Taoist priest had a sour expression on his face, covering his crotch and kneeling softly.
Fall down.
It was much easier to deal with these three people than Qin Xiao expected.
"When I say be gentler, I'm not asking you to be gentler. I'm asking you if you want me to be gentler." Qin Xiao straightened his clothes and said, "Since you said you wanted to be beaten hard, I will grant your wish."
Several Taoist priests were still howling in pain, but the old Taoist priest was furious, but he also knew that Qin Xiao was very good at martial arts, so he did not dare to step forward. He pointed at Qin Xiao and said angrily: "Okay, you are a troublesome citizen, you...
...You wait for Taoist Master." He got on his horse, ignored the few disciples under him, patted the horse and drove away. The sound of horse hooves disappeared from the street in the blink of an eye.
Several of his men also knew that they were no match for Qin Xiao, so they endured the pain, mounted their horses, and were all gone in a matter of seconds.
Qin Xiao then went over to help the old man who fell on the ground. He looked around and saw many people looking at him. Many people showed sympathy and helped the old man to the street. The old man said gratefully: "
Thank you, young man, you...just run away."
"Run?" Qin Xiao was stunned: "Why run?"
"Aren't you from Kyoto?" The old man understood and said, "Just now it was Master Hongling, and he cannot be provoked."
"Master Hongling? Where did he come from?" Qin Xiao asked doubtfully.
A kind-hearted man on the side said: "Young man, don't ask, just pack up and leave the city quickly. It's too late if you delay any longer. There's nothing good to be gained by offending Master Hongling. If you hurt his horse, you've already caused trouble."
It’s a big disaster. Not only has his horse been injured, but his apprentice has also been injured. Run away, run away...!"
Others did not even dare to approach Qin Xiao. Even the old man sighed and walked away slowly.
Qin Xiao saw everyone's reaction and knew that Master Hongling was by no means an ordinary person.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Just now Master Hongling claimed that delaying him meant delaying the palace. Could it be that the old Taoist priest had something to do with the palace?
I'm really lucky.
I helped Qiuniang once by the Luoshui River and offended Tsing Yi Tang, the most powerful urban gang in Kyoto. Today I rescued people and offended a group of Taoist priests who seemed to have a good background.
However, Qin Xiao will never be afraid of anything he has done, even if he doesn't do it.
Returning to Changle Inn, I closed the door and practiced martial arts in the room. As soon as I finished my work, I heard the sound of footsteps coming from outside. Soon, I heard someone outside the door saying: "Qin Xiao lives in this room."
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a "bang" sound and the door was kicked open.
Qin Xiao sat cross-legged on the bed and knew without even thinking that it must be the help sent by the Taoist priests.
Five or six officials rushed in like wolves and tigers. The first one saw Qin Xiao, who did not change his expression after meeting, sitting on the bed. He raised his finger and pointed at Qin Xiao and asked: "Did you hurt the horse of Master Hongling?"
Qin Xiao was not in a hurry. He got off the bed, put on his boots, walked over and poured himself a cup of tea, and then said: "Not only did I hurt his horse, I also hurt his apprentice. Who are you?"
"We are from Kyoto Prefecture." The man said coldly: "Let's go, follow us to the Yamen."
"Why did I go to the Yamen with you?"
The man was startled and then said angrily: "Do you really think it's okay? If you offend Master Hongling, you will go to the Yamen with us and lock you up for a year and a half. Only then will you realize how powerful it is."
Qin Xiao smiled and said: "It turns out that I am an official from the Kyoto Prefecture. Brother, if you want to put me in prison, there must be a crime. Is it possible that I will be put in prison if I have a conflict with the old Taoist priest? Don't you ask?
Right or wrong?"
"Master Hongling is working for the imperial court. Time is urgent, but you interrupted me on the way." The official sneered: "Delaying Master Hongling means delaying the affairs of the palace. Do you think you should go to jail? Right or wrong?
Black and white, hehe, you are an enemy of the imperial court, how can you say more about right and wrong?"
Qin Xiao shook his head and said: "No. Even if they were really in a hurry, they wouldn't dare to cause trouble and hurt people. Didn't you go investigate? They at least ran rampant, overturned stalls, and injured several people. I intervened to stop them.
It's because if I turn a blind eye, people may lose their lives. It's natural for me to save people under the emperor's feet. What's my fault?"
"Human life? We haven't heard that anyone died." The official said arrogantly: "But you have injured several Taoists, and you are still arguing here."
At this moment, someone outside the door was heard saying: "Captain Liang, it may be a misunderstanding, don't worry." A person came in from the door, and it was Gu Baiyi.
Qin Xiao heard that these official servants were from the Kyoto Prefecture. He really thought of Gu Baiyi, who was working in the Kyoto Prefecture, but he did not expect that Gu Baiyi would follow him. He lost his voice and said: "Gu...Brother Gu?"
Liang Captou frowned, looked back at Gu Baiyi who was coming in from the door, and asked: "Gu Baiyi, do you know him?"
Gu Baiyi did not deny it and said: "I know him. He is my friend."
Qin Xiao felt a little moved.
He had offended Master Hongling and caused trouble. Most people were afraid of avoiding him. Gu Baiyi not only rushed over, but also regarded him as a friend. Apparently, he was not worried about being involved by him at all.
"He is your friend?" Liang Captou sneered: "Wen Liang, this friend of yours is really bold. Do you know that he hurt the disciple of Master Hong Ling?"
"I know." Gu Baiyi always looked calm and composed when he didn't seem to be in a hurry: "The people from Changsheng Guan went to Kyoto Prefecture to report the case and set up a file. I happened to be the one recording the case, so I naturally know what happened.
what happened."
Qin Xiao now understood why Gu Baiyi arrived in time.
Hongling Zhenren sent someone to report the case and wanted to use the Kyoto Prefecture to deal with him. Gu Baiyi was the clerk of the Kyoto Prefecture and was responsible for document affairs. He happened to record the file of this case. When reporting the case, the Taoist priest would of course record his location and shape.
Maung said it clearly. Gu Baiyi was smarter than others, so he naturally realized that the case might be related to Qin Xiao, so he ran over to see what happened.
Liang Captou said: "In that case, tell him to come back to Kyoto with us."
Gu Baiyi said: "Has Capt. Liang been to the scene of the incident?"
"What are you doing there?"
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
"Of course we need to find out the whole story of this matter." Gu Baiyi said calmly: "The prince broke the law and was guilty of the same crime as the common people, not to mention the Taoist priests of Changsheng Temple. They rode horses in the street, hurting people and property. Qin Xiao stopped him because of
Save people's lives. Dozens of pairs of eyes could see it clearly at that time. As long as you go and inquire about it, the truth of the matter will be clear."
Liang Capt. Liang sneered: "Gu Baiyi, you are just a clerk, responsible for paperwork. When will it be your turn to investigate the case? Do I need you to teach me how to investigate the case? You are not a yamen errand, you are good at it.
You left your post, came here, and protected your so-called friend. Hey, after returning to the Yamen, let's go see Mr. Fu Yin together and see what else you can say."
"This matter has nothing to do with Brother Gu. If you come to me, I can go to the Yamen with you and meet Mr. Fu Yin together to explain the matter clearly." Qin Xiao took a step forward and said with a cold face: "I want to be at the emperor's feet.
See if there is right and wrong in the end."
Gu Baiyi shook his head and said: "Qin Xiao, you can't leave yet. Didn't the Ministry of Punishment ask you to stay at the inn at any time? If people from the Ministry of Punishment come to find you, but you go to Kyoto Prefecture, do you want Lu Budang Kyoto Prefecture?
VIP?"
When Liang Patou heard this, he was startled for a moment, and his voice was a little softer, and he asked: "Scaffolder, you said... you said that the Ministry of Punishment asked him to stay here, what... does this mean?
"
"It seems that Capt. Liang not only failed to investigate the case of Hongling Zhenren, but also didn't even figure out Qin Xiao's identity." Gu Baiyi sighed: "Qin Xiao is the messenger who came to Beijing from Xiling, and he was the one who rode the horse not long ago.
Pulling a cart and beating the big drum in front of the Ministry of Justice, the Ministry of Justice investigated the case of Fan Wenzheng, the minister of the Ministry of War, who neglected his duties. Qin Xiao was involved in the case of Fan Wenzheng. Lu Butang attached great importance to him and asked him to wait for orders at the inn. If necessary, he would be dispatched at any time.
When people come to summon you to testify, don’t you know anything about it?”
Although the Kyoto Prefecture and the Punishment Bureau belong to two yamen, in reality, the Kyoto Prefecture only accepts the control of the Punishment Bureau. The official officials of Kyoto Prefecture are naturally afraid of the Punishment Bureau. What's more, Lu Junzhong, the Secretary of the Punishment Ministry, is the most cruel official in the dynasty, let alone a mere
In Kyoto Prefecture, even the princes and nobles did not dare to provoke the Ministry of Justice.
At this time, I heard that Qin Xiao turned out to be a witness of the Ministry of Justice and was involved in Fan Wenzheng's case. No one in Kyoto knew the importance of Fan Wenzheng's case. The arrogant and arrogant attitude of Capt. Liang disappeared instantly and he even put on a smile and said: "
It turns out that you...you are the one who beats the big drum. This...this is really a misunderstanding. Since it was Lu Butang who ordered you to wait here, we...we can't take you anymore.
Go to Kyoto Prefecture.”
"Didn't Capt. Liang insist on letting me go to the Kyoto Prefecture just now?" Qin Xiao said: "He also said that he would put me in jail. The case is not settled. It's really not possible. I'd better go with you. If the Kyoto Prefecture says no.
Clearly, I will go directly to the Criminal Department to find Lu Butang. Lu Butang is fair and honest, and this case will definitely be handled impartially."
Cold sweat broke out on Liang Captou's forehead. He looked at Gu Baiyi with a forced smile and said flatteringly: "Science Master, we are all our own people. You see...1"
"Brother Qin, Capt. Liang is indeed one of our own. He didn't know the truth, so there was a misunderstanding. You don't have to blame him." Gu Baiyi put one hand behind his back and looked calm.
"Yes, yes, it's all a misunderstanding." Liang Captou said angrily: "It's all Taoist priests from Changsheng Temple who are adding fuel to the fire, saying that you committed murder in the street and delayed their work for the palace. Unexpectedly, monks are also talking nonsense. Qin...
.Hehe, it’s a misunderstanding, sir, please don’t care about it.”
Qin Xiao said: "If it is a misunderstanding, then there is no need to go to Kyoto Prefecture, right?"
"That's natural." Liang Baotou raised his hand and wiped the cold sweat on his forehead with his sleeve: "Since Lu Butang has given instructions, just stay in the inn and no one will come back to disturb you."
"Even so, Capt. Liang has a good chance of leaving." Qin Xiao sat down directly at the table and stopped looking at Capt. Liang.
Capt. Liang smiled awkwardly, and Gu Baiyi said: "Capt. Liang, you still have official duties, so go ahead. I will learn more about this case in detail here, and I will show you the file later. You can understand the matter.
The ins and outs are clear, so it will be easier to communicate upwards in the future.”
"Then we have Lao Wenlang." Liang Captou was very polite, and he bowed his hand to Gu Baiyi, and then to Qin Xiao, and then hurriedly left with his subordinates.
Qin Xiao watched Liang Captou and others leave, shook his head, stood up immediately, raised his hand and said: "Brother Gu, please sit down quickly!" He took a cup and poured water for Gu Baiyi.
Gu Baiyi closed the door, went over to sit down, and said with a smile: "Brother Qin, you are really going to turn Kyoto upside down. Things are not over yet at Qingyi Hall, and now you have enmity with the Temple of Immortality. Hahaha, the tiger has entered the capital.
