Chapter 218: The Praying Mantis Catches the Cicada and the Yellow Sparrow Follows
The ultra-long-distance "Yin Yang Gate", from Luo Suozhou to Yujing, this spell has great limitations.
The first point is that it must be built a fixed, immovable "yin and yang door", which is usually the shape of an ordinary door frame, and when it is used, a light curtain will appear in the door frame.
Secondly, it is necessary to connect the earth qi through the formation to provide support for the "Yin Yang Gate", and the farther the distance of the transmission, the larger and more complex the formation required.
The formation of this "Yin Yang Gate" in Luo Shaozhou has reached a terrifying twelve acres, and Yujing is simply located in the Kunlun Cave Heaven. Moreover, there are many restrictions, and behemoths such as flying boats cannot be passed, and they are not easy to use to transport large quantities of goods. The reason for the establishment of such a "Yin and Yang Gate" is mainly because Luo Suozhou is a place of exile, which is convenient for escorting prisoners. In addition, the cost is too high, and it is destined to not replace the flying boat.
After Feng Xiantang took Li Ping away, he immediately started the procedure of overturning the case.
Under normal circumstances, this procedure may have to go on for a few days, but now under the supervision of Lu Yushu, it will not take half a day.
In the absence of internal resistance, it is not so difficult to overturn the case.
Because Taoism is different from Confucianism, Confucianism emphasizes the presumption of guilt, while Taoism emphasizes the presumption of innocence.
The difference between the two is also very simple.
The presumption of guilt simply means that a person is presumed guilty first, and the defendant has to prove his innocence, and if he cannot prove himself, he is guilty. The presumption of innocence is that the guilt is never suspected, and the guilt must be proved by sufficient and conclusive evidence, otherwise it is innocent.
This is a major step forward made by Daomen compared to Confucianism in the process of rule of law.
In the case of the presumption of guilt, it is of course difficult to overturn the case, and there are too many subjective factors, and it is difficult to argue clearly.
In the case of the presumption of innocence, the reversal of the case mainly depends on the objective evidence, and Li Zhuyu can see the loopholes in the file at a glance, which of course applies to the lack of evidence.
According to the principle of presumption of innocence, if there is insufficient evidence, it is innocent. Therefore, Li Zhuyu does not have to find any evidence to prove Li Ping's innocence, as long as he points out that there is insufficient evidence here.
This is also why Qi Xuansu had to do a scene to collect evidence when he sent Yue Liuli in, just to prevent someone from talking about this matter in the future. Yue Liuli's case has all the evidence, and if he wants to overturn the case, it is absolutely impossible, at least it is not an overnight thing.
Under this logic, Li Ping, an innocent person, was convicted and exiled, and there were problems of false accusation and dereliction of duty, and he should be held accountable separately.
Therefore, whether it is Qi Xuansu or Li Zhuyu, they are not concerned about the overturning of the case itself, but the accountability brought about by the overturning of the case.
Qi Xuansu and Zhang Kucheng are already ready, Li Zhuyu has not noticed it yet, and the ending is doomed.
Zhang Kucheng has been paying close attention to the movements of Feng Xiantang, and the news from Feng Xiantang's side reached Zhang Kucheng's side as soon as possible.
"Very well, you keep watching, and report back to me at any time." When Zhang Jicheng received the letter, Qi Xuansu was also in Zhang Jicheng's signing room.
Zhang Kucheng casually closed the "Transmission Array", turned around and Qi Xuan Su said: "Tianyuan, Fengxian Hall has finished the process, and it will be up to you next." ”
Qi Xuansu nodded and contacted Li Zhuyu directly: "Is it Danjin?" I'm Qi Xuansu. ”
Li Zhuyu's voice came: "Is there something wrong with Chief Qi?" ”
Qi Xuansu said: "I heard that you have been busy overturning Li Ping's case in the past few days?" ”
Li Zhuyu was obviously taken aback, and it was hard to deny it, so he could only ask, "Chief Qi, how did you know?" ”
Qi Xuansu smiled: "You probably don't know that when I accompanied the Taoist friends of the West Daomen to visit the Daoist Mansion in Luosuozhou, this Li Ping suddenly jumped out and shouted grievances to me, and the Taoist friends of the West Daomen were also there at that time, which made me and the Lord of the Ye Mansion very embarrassed, so I kept this matter in mind, and it can be regarded as some preliminary understanding." ”
"You also know that when I was involved in the second Jiangnan case, I had some friendship with Li Cixi, so I thought that when I had my hands free, I would deal with Li Ping's affairs again, and I specially asked the Lord of the Ye Mansion to help me take care of this person and not let him die. As a result, when I asked the Lord of the Ye Mansion yesterday, the Lord of the Ye Mansion told me that the people of Fengxian Hall had taken Li Ping away, and I was afraid that someone would kill people and kill them, so I hurriedly inquired, and then I learned that you are also concerned about this matter, and you are working on the matter of overturning the case, but let me save trouble. ”
Li Zhuyu has already heard that something is wrong, what does it mean to "let me save trouble"? Listen to what you mean by Chief Qi, is this to take over this case? I plant trees, and you pick the fruit? There is no such reason.
Sure enough, Qi Xuansu continued: "Li Cixi is the second deputy head of Jiangnan Provincial Government, and this case also happened in Jiangnan Provincial Mansion, I happened to be in Jiangnan Provincial Mansion at this time, and then I will take over this case, which is also convenient for the Taoist friends of Jiangnan Provincial Government to cooperate in handling the case." ”
After all, Qi Xuansu is his superior, of course Li Zhuyu can't directly hard top, so he can only say: "Chief Qi, this is not appropriate, Li Mingping's case has always been handled by our fellow Daoists of Fengxian Hall, and it is not appropriate for the Jiangnan Provincial Government to grab credit so desperately." ”
Li Zhuyu still has a level, she did not accuse Qi Xuansu of how, but kidnapped her emotionally, turning the contradiction between her and Qi Xuansu into the contradiction between Fengxiantang and Jiangnan Province, she is a head lower than Qi Xuansu, but Fengxiantang is not weaker than Jiangnan Province, and the relationship between Fengxiantang and Beichentang is much closer than the relationship between Jiangnan Province and Beichentang.
Li Zhuyu is just saying, the two of us are both from Beichen Hall, regardless of inside and outside, whoever will handle this case is the case of Beichen Hall, it doesn't matter. However, Fengxian Hall is our brother unit of Beichen Hall, and the Jiangnan Provincial Government is far away, so you, the chief of Beichen Hall, can't let your brother chill his heart.
Of course, Li Zhuyu would not say it so explicitly, so she used two "inappropriate" in a row.
This is also the most appropriate reason to refuse Qi Xuansu's request, after all, this is the matter of Fengxian Hall.
Qi Xuansu couldn't hear the meaning of this, but the power gap was there, and it was a lie for the officials to crush people to death?
Qi Xuansu said directly: "How can this be a matter of grabbing merit or not grabbing merit?" Everyone is cooperating in handling the case and cooperating with each other, the original intention is not to make meritorious contributions, but to handle the case well, and this case is inseparable from the assistance of the Jiangnan Provincial Government, so it was decided. ”
"Chief Qi, this is not in accordance with the rules." Li Zhuyu's tone also became tougher, "The facts of Li Mingping's case are very complicated and involve many people, and it may even involve Li Tianlan, the second deputy head of the Jiangnan Provincial Government, involving the Jiangnan Provincial Government, should the Taoist friends of the Jiangnan Provincial Government avoid it?" I think the principle applies to off-site cases. ”
Qi Xuansu directly denied this statement: "Li Cixi is Li Cixi, and Jiangnan Province is Jiangnan Province, how can the two be confused?" If you have to find someone to represent Gangnam Province, then this person must be the Zhang Mansion Master of Gangnam Province, not anyone else. ”
"If Li Cixi is really involved, then it is more important to let the Zhang Mansion Master of Jiangnan Province personally deal with it, and the Zhang Mansion Master will report to Jin Que, instead of letting you deal with it, your grade is not as high as Li Cixi, can you deal with the second deputy mansion master of Jiangnan Provincial Mansion?"
Li Zhuyu was speechless for a while.
This is her weakness, if she is the second deputy hall master of Beichen Hall at this time, then she can still fight with Qi Xuansu, because the second seat is not the chief's subordinate, but the equal-level colleague who restricts the chief, everyone is a second-grade Taiyi Taoist, and Qi Xuansu can't talk about the grade, but Shen Mingxin is in the Liaodong Provincial Mansion at this time.
As a last resort, Li Zhuyu could only move out of his backer: "Since Chief Qi said so, it may involve the second deputy head of the Jiangnan Provincial Mansion, so in order to take care of the overall situation, I think we should ask the real person in charge." ”
This answer was expected by Qi Xuansu, Qi Xuansu was not surprised, and he had already prepared: "Although it is still just a guess and there is no actual evidence, I agree to ask the real person in charge of the hall, so that the real person in the palm can know it in his heart." ”
Li Zhuyu was a little surprised, she didn't expect Qi Xuansu to be so easy to speak.
Qi Xuansu then changed his words: "However, the matter of burning the True Martial Arts Temple is still vivid, and it is a lesson from the past." I think that no matter who takes over this case, the first task is to control the person so that there are no further accidents, otherwise it will be a situation that is still unresolved. In this case, you go and report to the real person in charge, and I will discuss with the head of the Jiangnan Provincial Mansion, Zhang Mansion, control the people first, and then we will discuss the issue of the ownership of the right to handle the case. ”
What else did Li Zhuyu want to say: "Chief Qi ......"
Qi Xuansu directly interrupted her: "Okay, carry out the order." ”
Then Qi Xuansu ended the call.
Li Zhuyu also knew at this time that Qi Xuansu had played a game of praying mantis catching cicadas and yellow birds, so she could only hurriedly contact Qingwei Zhenren: "Secretary Shen?" I'm Li Zhuyu, no matter where the real person is, please be sure to inform the real person, I have something important to report to the real person. ”
Shen Yuqing's voice came from there: "Miss Danjin, I'm sorry, the real person is holding a meeting of the Dao Mansion, not only the deputy masters of the Dao Mansion, but also many people, who don't have time to ......"
Li Zhuyu hurriedly said: "Secretary Shen, it doesn't take a lot of time, just give me a stick of incense." ”
"Miss Danjin, you are not an outsider, I really didn't mean to prevaricate and perfunctory you." Shen Yuqing's side seems to be leaving, "This discussion is very important, many old-timers in the Daofu have already arrived, all of them are sixth-generation disciples, according to the family generation, many people are the same generation of real people, and the pressure on the real person's side is also very great, so there is really no time." ”
Li Zhuyu suddenly felt a burst of despair.
On the other side, Qi Xuansu said to Zhang Kucheng: "You can do it, you must move quickly." ”
Zhang Kucheng didn't talk nonsense, and directly contacted the manpower he had arranged in advance: "Qingyue?" I'm Zhang Kucheng, now I'll immediately take someone to arrest Gu Ying, and then according to the original plan, I will send people directly to Putuo Island, and there will be a Taoist friend from Cihang's line to pick you up, and I have already arranged it. Okay, it has to be fast. If something goes wrong, I'm just asking! ”
