Chapter 140 Chen Pingping pleads guilty (asking for monthly ticket)
The title of mistress made the queen a little worried. This was purely her overthinking. All she could say was that Shen Qingzhou's behavior made her feel insecure, especially since he had just looked at several concubines.

Sometimes she doubted herself a little. Why did all the younger generations have the same problem? The prince and Shen Qingzhou were the same.

"Aunt, this is the bedroom I specially asked skilled craftsmen to build. It is lighted on all sides, and most places are bright during the day, so you don't have to prepare candles all year round." The queen was a little helpless. It seemed that she had to change her habit of lighting candles.

As for the Queen, she followed Shen Qingzhou to appreciate the beautiful scenery of the villa. The villa was also very large, otherwise it would not be so abnormal to have three hundred guards.

There were endless rare treasures in the villa, and the queen also saw many things that were not available in the palace. Southern Qing was a military power, but its enjoyment was not as comfortable as that of Northern Qi.

Shen Qingzhou can be described as arrogant and extravagant.

Kyoto.

As the new rankings spread throughout Kyoto, many people had something to talk about. Lin Xiang also became more and more confused. Who killed his son? There were too many masters in Kyoto.

When the eldest princess learned about the incident in Yunmeng Mountain, she was furious. No one had ever treated her like this in her life. Even though she was in charge of the inner treasury, she could not be so arrogant and extravagant.

It is only Shen Qingzhou. Not only has he made huge contributions, but most importantly, the ranking list he exposed this time, the Eighteen Tiger and Leopard Riders, are actually among the top 20 in the world in terms of combat power.

In fact, some people have thought so. After all, it is a fact that they invaded Northern Qi, but they did not expect it to be so perverted. On the contrary, some Northern Qi merchants thought this was normal, and many people were witnesses.

There are many people from Northern Qi in Kyoto. They all know that Duke Wu of Nanqing is the person that businessmen most want to cooperate with. They also know that they can make money as long as they bring things to Kyoto. Do you think they will come?

The two countries also trade with each other, otherwise, Yan Bingyun would not have gone to Northern Qi in the name of a caravan.

The eldest princess is now more interested in Shen Qingzhou than ever before. If she can accept him, then to what extent her own power will expand.

Everyone can see that Shen Qingzhou's subordinates are too loyal to him. Even Emperor Qing has failed to win their hearts. Shen Qingzhou is not an ordinary person.

However, the eldest princess did not lose heart. She had the most powerful weapon in the world and had not yet used it. She did not believe that any man could escape.

But I am still angry, because it has spread everywhere that the Queen is the happiest woman in the world, and the flowers she sees will wither the next moment because they are ashamed of themselves.

This is the rumor. It is obvious that people in the world would pay any price to let her have a look at them. This one look is worth a lot of money.

What everyone sees are the second-hand flowers she has seen. How romantic it is to have someone do this for you.

These rumors were spread by businessmen. They all made money from Shen Qingzhou, so don't they know what to say?

The prince also knew the cost of his mother's trip. Others would not calculate it. He had considerable influence in Kyoto. A rough estimate showed that it would cost less than 1.5 million taels just for carpets and exotic flowers and plants. It would be impossible to gather all the merchants in Kyoto.

And according to some information, what the outside world sees is nothing compared to Yunmeng Villa. The most conservative estimate is that it will cost no more than five million taels of silver.

This amount of silver may not sound like much, but think about it, the gap in the inner treasury over the years is only 20 million taels.

Moreover, this money was either spent all over the world or on one person, which was a bit too exaggerated. The prince was actually a bit uncomfortable, this was his selfishness, and he was also envious, the Six Gates in charge of Shen Qingzhou were too rich.

If this money were given to herself, she would have to win over so many people's hearts. It would be too costly to spend so much just for her mother to come home for a visit. This was also the thought that made the eldest princess almost crazy. In all these years, she had never seen anyone who could do this for a woman. She was so jealous.

The second prince was also worried, but he was concerned about the masters under Shen Qingzhou. He had never thought about it. He originally thought that his eight generals had already hidden a trick.

But now it seems that the Tiger Guards themselves don't know that there are also the Eighteen Tiger and Leopard Riders, the Six Gates, and Xie Bian, the number one swordsman in Kyoto, will never be mentioned again.

At the very least, it was revealed that Shadow's strongest skill was the Four-Glance Sword Technique, and there was even a sword move that could make a grandmaster look sideways. There were too many strong people in Kyoto.

royal palace.

"Dean, is there anything important that needs to be done?" Chen Pingping had to go to the palace. After Shadow returned, he was told about the matter as soon as possible. He knew that he was in trouble and hurried into the palace.

Emperor Qing looked at Chen Pingping pretending to be surprised. Of course he knew it. In fact, he had never paid attention to this shadow before. If he knew the identity of everyone in the Supervisory Council, there would be no need to do anything else.

Chen Pingping didn't say it on his own initiative, otherwise, he wouldn't have let Shadow Stab Emperor Qing to test whether he was a grandmaster.

Now that he has been exposed, of course he has to rush to the palace to explain. Now, he still has a lot of things to do. It's not that he can't die, but his death must be meaningful.

"Your Majesty, I apologize for my mistake. The head of the Sixth Department of my Supervisory Council turned out to be the younger brother of Si Gu Jian. I don't know him well." This is Chen Pingping's method, pretending not to know.

"Oh, this is actually true. Si Gu Jian has a family?" Emperor Qing knew, of course, that the old fox was talking nonsense.

"Your Majesty, I only knew it so clearly when the ranking of the six gates was released. The shadow came to me at the beginning, saying that Si Gu Jian killed his parents. I kept him because I saw that he was very powerful, but I didn't expect that he was actually Si Gu Jian's brother.

It would be fine if it was just this, but what makes me sad is that the information channel of the Six Gates is so hidden that my Supervisory Council has not received any news until now. "Chen Pingping also used a trick to divert the trouble.

"Let's not talk about this. There's no need to do this between you and me. But, do you think that the mysterious place they are talking about is a temple?" Emperor Qing would certainly not do anything to Chen Pingping now.

Chen Pingping is his shield against the world's criticism, and he can really get things done. As for the shadow issue, he has other plans.

He and Chen Pingping both knew about the temple, and they were also clear about the purpose of the Northern Qi emperor's delegation coming to the capital. Yan Bingyun was exposed and detained, and they wanted to use him to exchange for Sean. This was all planned by Emperor Qing and Chen Pingping.

In the world, the only ones who have been to the temple and are still alive are Ku He and Sean. As for Wu Zhu, he has forgotten too much. Besides, Emperor Qing and Chen Pingping can't control him. He also hopes to know the location of the temple from Sean.

Fan Xian was the person they chose to send Sean to Northern Qi, in order to make Sean misunderstand that Fan Xian was his grandson, and everything had its routine.

"Maybe it's because Duke Wu is extremely mysterious and seems to know a lot of information that other people don't know." Chen Pingping also found it very strange. How did he know some things?

(Sorry, I'm late for the table tennis Olympics. One more thing, in order to improve the average, the number of words is not small, three chapters will be reduced to two chapters, and each chapter will be 3,000 words. Which one is more comfortable for everyone to read? If you have any ideas, please let me know.)
