    Looking at the other side's flags from a distance, in the center is the Daxia dragon flag, with a bear flag next to it, and behind it are the totem flags of various tribes and vassal states. This is the emperor's guard of honor when traveling.  Xia Qi was the emperor and the country was named Daxia, but he still inherited the legal system of Emperor Xuanyuan.  The totem of the Xiahou clan is the bear, and the bear is also one of the totems of the Xuanyuan Huangdi Tribal Alliance.  After Xuanyuan became the emperor, he used the dragon as his flag and the ceremonial guard was accompanied by the totems of his tribes. Xia Qi also followed suit today.  Seeing the bullock cart approaching from a distance, the emperor's honor guard stopped, and the emperor Xia Qi got out of the cart, stood alone in the middle of the road, and took the lead in saluting.  Seeing the emperor getting out of the car and walking towards him, Xiaojiu had already gotten out of the car, stood by the roadside and bowed sideways in return.  Of course, Xiaojiu didn't think that Emperor Xia Qi would take the initiative to salute him, so he moved out of the way. It looked like Xia Qi was saluting the car, but in fact he was.  But Qingniu shook his big head, acting like a bull, as if to say, don't talk to me if you have anything to do, I'm the one pulling the cart!  Boyi avoided it, and Qingniu had the same attitude again, so the only one who could speak was Xiaojiu.  Xiao Jiu said: "Greetings to the Emperor of China!"  In the name of pacifying Baoming's national affairs, his success is gone. He is a rare young talent in China, which makes Qi admire him! I wonder why the Nine Young Masters are traveling around in this car today? "As long as the emperor is willing, it is not difficult to take Xiao Jiu away.  He had found out his identity and many things about him since childhood, but Xia Qi could not find out the exact relationship between Xiaojiu and Huwa.  Qing Niu was right. Xia Qi came not for Xiao Jiu, but for the cart and the ox that pulled the cart. To be more precise, he came for the owners of the ox and the cart.  Xia Qi was straightforward in his words, and he got to the point right away.  Xiaojiu replied: "It's just a matter of national affairs in Baoming. The emperor is concerned about it. Now I am traveling according to your husband's instructions. This car used to be my husband's ride, and this cow was also my husband's mount." There was a hint of emotion in his words.  Shen Nian introduced his relationship with Huwa and how the cow and the car came about, without hiding anything.  Xia Qi was startled for a moment, then smiled and said: "Ninth Young Master and I are both Hu Lord's juniors, and we need to get close to each other. Huwa gave the chariot to the Ninth Young Master, and the Ninth Young Master went to Zhaiyang City to assist the city lord in investigating the case. I don't know who he is.  What other instructions does the old man have?" Xia Qi did not find Boyi's body on the battlefield, nor did he recover the human emperor's seal, so he had to announce that Boyi had died in the rebellion.  But Boyi suddenly appeared in the Central Plains, riding Huwa and Dayu's white fragrant wood cart. The cart was pulled by Huwa's mount Qingniu. Xia Qi was also surprised.  Xia Qi has guessed that Boyi was rescued by Huwa.  Huwa and Boyi had an old relationship, so it was not too surprising that he saved Boyi's life. However, Huwa let Boyi ride in his own car, appeared in the Central Plains again, and even intervened in a murder case in Zhaiyang City.  , what does this mean?  Xia Qi was not sure about Huwa's attitude, so he would definitely come to inquire. Even for the whereabouts of the Human Emperor's Seal, he had to come in person.  When Xiaojiu left Zhaiyang City that day, he deliberately made himself so conspicuous, and even met the driver of Zhai Shui's Bojun, so he had already expected what would happen today.  When did you become an old man, sir?  Xiaojiu replied very humbly: "Sir, I didn't give any instructions. It was all Suiyu's own doing. I originally planned to rush to Zhaiyang City in the autumn to wait for the emperor's approval of the sentence. If necessary, I would go to the imperial capital in person."  I paid homage to the emperor, but I didn¡¯t expect to meet him here.¡± Seeing Xiaojiu calling himself Suiyu, the emperor Xia Qi also changed his name: ¡°It turns out that Mr. Suiyu has something to do with me, so why not go to Jicheng with us in the same car.¡±  Xu, I also have many things to ask Mr. Suiyu. " Xiaojiu looked back with some embarrassment and said, "I do have something to say to you, the emperor, but the cow pulling my cart doesn't want to go into the city.  Can we just chat on the side of the road?" "These are two neighbors in the countryside who met on the road and just stood on the side of the road chatting.  The person standing in front of him was the Emperor of China, who was waiting here with his honor guard, and invited Xiaojiu to ride with him to Daocheng. Xiaojiu actually made such a proposal?  But he said that this was what Qingniu meant. Xia Qi was helpless and nodded: "Okay, I will order people to set up tents on the roadside. You and I brothers can talk to each other." Xia Qi is not his father, Dayu.  He is strict with his subordinates and not so easy-going towards others.  He stood here talking to Xiao Jiu. No one among the ceremonial guards behind him, including the accompanying courtiers, dared to move because the emperor had ordered not to disturb him.  But when Xiaojiu met Xia Qi, the emperor, for the first time today, he felt very cordial. Xia Qi even treated him like a brother.  ¡°Of course this is for Huwa¡¯s sake. Huwa has personally taught Xiaojiu for so many years, and also gave Xiaojiu the white fragrant wood car to ride in, and Qingniu personally pulled the car for him. The relationship between the two is by no means ordinary.  Why did Huwa not only rescue Boyi but also take away the human emperor's seal??Why Xiaojiu was allowed to show up publicly with Boyi in a car was something Xia Qi wanted to find out in private.  Xiaojiu shook his head and said, "No need to trouble others. I have prepared a large artifact tent. Would you like to go in and have a seat?" As he spoke, he waved his hand and threw something out.  This object appeared out of thin air. It looks like a treasure umbrella, like a canopy inserted in a car to protect it from the sun and rain.  The precious umbrella opened in mid-air and turned into a lotus leaf with a stem. When it fell by the roadside, it turned into a big tent.  Emperor Xia Qi exclaimed: "Is this the artifact of Lord Tiger?" He could more or less guess the origin of this artifact. It turned out to be a five-color sacred lotus leaf.  Xiaojiu smiled and nodded: "Yes, Daniel just lent it to us." Huwa gave a lotus leaf to Qingniu, and Qingniu saw Mr. Sanshui's magical umbrella, so he begged Yunqi for help.  , continue to refine this lotus leaf into the umbrella cover of the car.  It didn't take out this artifact along the way, but just lent it to Xiaojiu privately.  The artifact can change with its form and spirit, and turning the umbrella cover into a big tent is just a small trick. Moreover, outsiders cannot spy when talking in this big tent.  Emperor Xia Qi also said with a smile: "It's rare to see the big tent transformed by Tiger Lord's artifact. Being able to sit inside is also a blessing for Qi."  It was empty, and the emperor ordered his attendants to quickly bring in all the necessary things, including tables, seats, refreshments, etc. All the utensils were extremely gorgeous, and the empty tent was decorated in the blink of an eye.  , and then sent everyone away.  After sitting down, Xiao Jiu poured tea for the Emperor. Xia Qi raised his glass in return and then said, "I wonder how Mr. Tiger is doing lately?" Xiao Jiu replied, "Sir, his whereabouts are unknown. I don't know where he is now. So,  This tea is from afar." "Yes, first of all, respect Mr. Tiger!" Xia Qi raised his cup and saluted in the air, and then asked, "Mr. Sui Yu was driving in a car to alert the people. He has not concealed his whereabouts recently. He must have expected me to come.  I don¡¯t know if you have any advice?¡±  Since Xia Qi dared to enter the tent alone, he was certainly not afraid that Xiaojiu would be detrimental to him. He also didn't think that Huwa would deal with him, but he was just curious about what would happen?  This matter was really either told by Huwa or encountered by Xiaojiu himself. He immediately put down his cup and said: "The case of Chai Lang killing Dang Han in Zhaiyang City must be known to the emperor. I wonder how you decide?" Xia Qida  He said: "Are you because of this? Dang Han did not attack Chai Lang, but Chai Lang secretly attacked and assassinated him in public. According to the law, he committed a capital crime. Even if Dang Han died, he should be executed by a competent authority. But considering that there was a reason for the incident.  , to show mercy, I have convicted him, but pardoned his sentence and changed his sentence to three years of hard labor. "The circumstances before and after this murder have been clearly investigated. Chai Lang's crime is conclusive. There is no doubt. The emperor has decided.  He was convicted of his crime, but pardoned his death penalty and was exiled to the land of the rivers for three years of hard labor. This was already a very light punishment in comparison.  Xia Qi's tone paused, and then said: "If any master has an old relationship with Chai Lang, and something happens to Chai Lang on the road, that is his own business. But as the emperor, I can only order the city wall  This is the punishment." These words were clearly a hint and a temptation. Xiaojiu could understand it. Xia Qi was alluding to Boyi's incident.  Boyi must have committed a capital crime, but he was rescued by Huwa. Xia Qi could only announce that Boyi died in the rebellion and it was impossible to pardon him.  This is a little different from today¡¯s situation, but there are similarities.  Xia Qi could spare Chai Lang the death penalty, but it was impossible not to impose other punishments.  If Xiao Jiu had a friendship with Chai Lang and didn't want Chai Lang to do hard labor, he could rescue Chai Lang and resettle him himself, but the emperor would not change his order.  If so, it may cause others to follow suit.  If someone thinks that someone deserves to die, and assassinates that person without being identified, convicted, and executed by a competent authority, and is not punished afterwards, then the world will be in chaos and order will collapse.  Xiaojiu shook his head and said: "I have no old friendship with Na Chai Lang. How to deal with it is the emperor's right, and I have no intention to interfere. At first, I just assisted the city lord to find out the inside story and truth of the case, so that he could report to the emperor for his decision and make an announcement.  The people of the city know it. And today I want to ask the emperor why Chai Lang committed the crime of murder. Apart from his own reasons, who else is responsible?" Xia Qi sighed: "Of course it was because of the city lord's inaction!  Otherwise, I will not pardon him from death." Xiaojiu asked, "Does the emperor know what Dai Dajiang is?" Xia Qi: "I would like to hear the details."  Killing someone on behalf of a great craftsman means killing someone on behalf of a great craftsman. If someone kills someone on behalf of a great craftsman, hopefully his hands will not be hurt If someone has done his job, it is said to be done without doing anything, and the emperor can take it without doing anything.There is no need for someone to do the work for the master craftsman.  Mr. Ziqiu was by his side at that time and also said something.  If the people had to cut their hands for the master craftsmen, they would hurt their hands, and the emperor would also hurt his hands.  This is the collapse of etiquette and the beginning of chaos.  " The reason why Chai Lang was convicted was not because he mistakenly killed someone he shouldn't have killed, but because he did not have the right to kill someone without authorization, and the situation was not at all out of self-defense. The law set by Gao Tao and followed by Xia Qi, for  The requirements for the execution of the death penalty are very strict, and no city has the authority to carry out executions without authorization. But on the other hand, this happened because of the inaction of the Wuji City Lord.  It is not impossible to find out Dang Han's crime. The case is not complicated and it is not beyond the scope of normal people to find out. The most important point is that Chai Lang has already reported Dang Han. If Chai Lang did not go to the city lord to report Dang Han.  Han, instead went to kill him directly. It would be difficult for Xia Qi to pardon him. Therefore, in Xiao Jiu's view, whether Han should be killed is not the most important issue, even if the truth of the case is Xiao Jiu.  Jiu personally found out. The reason why the emperor pardoned Chai Lang is not the point, but whether Chai Lang took the initiative to "cut it on behalf of the master craftsman", or if he had to "cut it off on behalf of the master craftsman".  Dai Dajiang, so who is responsible? On the surface, there is not much fault to be found in Wuji City Master, but is this really the case? The affairs of the world are the affairs of the emperor, so does the emperor have the responsibility?  If there is no law enforcement and those in power do not manage the government, if someone does not do what they should do, someone will do something they should not do. This is the beginning of chaos when etiquette breaks down. This is what Xiaojiu wants to ask Xia Qi today, borrowing the words of his husband.  Xia Qi stood up after hearing this, bowed to Xiao Jiu and said, "Qi already understands, thank you Mr. Suiyu for your advice today. If you have the opportunity, thank Mr. Hu for your words!"  and Qi Shang has something to do.  Master Zhai Shui said that he saw someone in your car who looked exactly like Boyi who had died in the rebellion. I wonder if this could be the case?  " Xiaojiu asked unhurriedly: "Does the emperor want to arrest Boyi?  Xia Qi shook his head and said, "Bo Yi is dead. I didn't see him just now."  " Xiaojiu asked directly: "That day, did you want to ask where the human emperor's seal is?  "  If Lord Tiger retains the human emperor's seal, what's the point?  This matter is of great importance, Qi has to ask!  " Xiaojiu took out something and put it on the table and said: "The Seal of the Human Emperor is not in your hands, sir, but in my hands.  My husband asked me to find an opportunity to return it to the emperor. It¡¯s just right to meet here today!  Emperor, please treasure it carefully and don¡¯t lose it again.  "  Xia Qi and Xiao Jiu walked out of the big tent with arms crossed. They looked like a father and son, and looked like close brothers. Xiao Jiu declined Xia Qi's invitation to go to the city together, saying that he wanted to continue traveling in the mountains.  The emperor personally sent Xiao Jiu to the bullock cart, praised his noble hermit demeanor, and expressed his envy for his freedom in the world. Then he led the crowd back to the city. The big tent was collected, and the bullock cart continued to move forward ten miles later.  After bypassing Yicheng, they continued to go upstream to Wangwu Mountain. At this time, Boyi returned to the car and asked Xiaojiu: "Fellow Taoist Suiyu, did Xia Qi mention me?"  " Xiaojiu replied: "I did mention it, but he asked about the Human Emperor's Seal, not you.  Boyi: "Where is the Seal of the Human Emperor?"  " Xiaojiu spread his hands: "Give it back to him!  " (.)
