Chapter 89: Secret Operation (Subscription Request)

Shen Qingzhou met Fan Xian and Wang Qinian. He rode a tall white horse and took Bailong out for some fun today. They went out of the city to the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry camp.

"Greetings, Marquis Shenwu." Fan Xian clasped his fists, and Wang Qinian followed suit. He was very curious about this marquis, whom he had heard of but never met.

He came to inform Fan Xian that Chen Pingping's secret letter revealed that Si Lili had informed Fan Xian about Lin Gong.

In fact, he was also secretly ordered by Chen Pingping to follow Fan Xian, otherwise, there wouldn't be so many instant hits between them.

"Mr. Fan, you must be Wang Qinian, one of the two tracking experts in the Supervisory Office." Shen Qingzhou looked at Wang Qinian and said.

"I didn't expect that the Marquis actually knew Xiaoke. I'm so terrified." Wang Qinian bowed.

"My Lord, I have a favor to ask of you." Fan Xian continued.

"Mr. Fan, you are too serious. I definitely can't help you. Our two families, except for Madam Liu, have no relationship.

But I'm quite curious. The Prime Minister's Office has learned that you knew about Lin Gong's assassination of you, and he was killed outside the city. How dare you still be here?" Shen Qingzhou didn't give him any face.

"So, the Marquis actually knew about Lin Gong's assassination a long time ago." Fan Xian asked. He was extremely angry. When he was investigating everywhere, many people already knew the truth of the matter, especially the Marquis of Shenwu, who, as the chief judge, was indifferent.

"Do you think Si Lili would tell you this and hide it from me?" Wang Qinian had already hidden away. A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall.

"My Lord, you are the presiding judge of the Niulan Street assassination case. You clearly know the murderer, but you haven't taken any action yet. Is it because the victim is just a mere bodyguard? The other party is the son of the Prime Minister, or is it because it involves the Crown Prince and you are afraid?" Fan Xian couldn't bear to hear this.

"Haha, Fan Xian, I know you are trying to provoke me. As for the incident with Teng Zijing, my Six Gates has already killed the perpetrator. As for the inside story, I naturally have my own plan.

I advise you to hide in the Supervisory Office. At this moment, only Chen Pingping can save you." Shen Qingzhou said. His words "Teng Zijing" also made Fan Xian's mood surge. He actually knew the name of a guard.

"I didn't expect that the Marquis was so well-informed and had already guessed that I knew about this." Fan Xian was still testing.

"Isn't it obvious? That Wang Qinian was not sent by Chen Pingping to help you. You don't think that just because you have such great personal charm, he will bow down to you as soon as he sees you." After Shen Qingzhou finished speaking, he rode the white dragon back to the mansion, leaving Fan Xian with mixed feelings.

"Sir, Marquis Shenwu is a very wealthy man. I just saw that the clothes he wears are all works of masters, especially the jade pendant on his waist, which is worth a fortune. Even his saddle is decorated with luminous pearls. It's so luxurious." Wang Qinian's focus is different from others.

Shen Qingzhou is indeed greedy for pleasure. Why would he hide his money if he has it? Just spend it. You can't even earn it by spending it.

"Isn't it normal for him to be rich? He has the lottery ticket. Wang Qinian, I do have something to ask you. You are not having secret communications with Dean Chen, are you?" For a moment, the atmosphere was silent.

……

In Kyoto, at a lottery distribution booth, there is a big Yellow Crane Tower sign hanging on it, meaning that this is allowed by Yellow Crane Tower. A middle-aged couple is sorting out the lottery tickets that have just been delivered.

The Yellow Crane Tower has now become a place to redeem lottery winnings. The distribution has been completely delegated to various small stalls, and they only collect money.

As for the interior of the Yellow Crane Tower, in addition to being a place to redeem prizes, it has now become a gathering place for the Six Gates Constables and various bounties. To use a Western term, this is a mercenary center.

The bounty offered in the Six Gates is much higher than that in the Ministry of Justice. Many of the detectives only have martial arts skills and no detective skills. They just wait here for clues. They only use force and cooperate tacitly. "Lao Zhang, give me two lottery tickets. Hey, what is that?" The visitor saw something different.

"Oh, that's a lottery made to celebrate the opening of the Six Gates. With the special permission of the Marquis, it's called Scratch-off. Although the prize money is not as high as our lottery that is drawn once a week, it's convenient to draw and can be used whenever you want." Lao Zhang said.

"Give me ten and I'll try."

"No, this is just like the lottery, there are restrictions, one person per day, up to five tickets."

"Then five tickets, Old Zhang. I really envy you. Your son was selected into the Six Gates, and we immediately arranged a lottery ticket distribution point for you. Many people tried their best but couldn't open one."

"Oh, if you didn't tell me how dangerous it is, with all the fighting and killing." Mr. and Mrs. Zhang were happy to hear this, but also worried.

This is also a benefit that the Six Gates gives to themselves. All lottery ticket distribution points are the families of the detectives, so it doesn't matter who they are given the lottery tickets to.

"Did I win this? Oh, I did win, but why is it so little?"

"I've already made back my investment and earned a little money. Be content. I'll get you the money."

A scratch-off lottery ticket increased the money-making speed of the Six Gates. Many people admired the Marquis. What a brain he had. Standing on the shoulders of giants, Shen Qingzhou could also become a business genius.

Inside the palace.

"Your Majesty, these are gifts sent from the young master's house. Here is the gift list." In the queen's bedroom, the queen lazily leaned on the couch, tasting fine wine. She was very lazy. If Shen Qingzhou saw it, he would definitely complain, asking why it was his aunt.

There is no one else here, so the queen can naturally do whatever she wants.

"Let me see." The queen took the gift list. She was used to it. Ever since Shen Qingzhou came to Kyoto, her palace would receive some things from time to time.

The brocades and silks of the Northern Qi Dynasty, poetry collections, masterpieces by famous writers, milk tea from the grasslands, mutton, and other rare treasures from the world may not be expensive in the local area, but they are expensive in Kyoto.

For example, Yun Mengyu, even as the queen, her quota is not very high. It is only Emperor Qing who can get as much as he wants.

But Shen Qingzhou brought her food from time to time, and she was a little tired of it. She also felt that her mother's family was away, and she was indeed much more comfortable than before.

"Pick out some of the newest silks and send them to the Queen Mother. The Prince likes these Yunmeng fish very much. Bring these rouges to me. And there is also a special gift. Let me see it." The Queen opened an envelope.

"Aunt, this is the first prize lottery ticket for the next lottery draw. I know that if I give you the money directly, you will definitely not want it. This is the best of both worlds." The queen looked at the lottery ticket with a strange look in her eyes.

In fact, many people know that the Six Gates can definitely secretly manipulate the lottery, but the queen did not expect that she would become the beneficiary.

This is only the case for the Queen. As for the others, he just manipulated them and gave them to those who had already reached the bottom. This was the only way it would work. However, occasionally giving one to the aunt did not have much impact.
