It is impossible for Department Seven to intervene in ordinary cases.
Because this is not something that the Seventh Department should deal with, and it is not within the scope of the Seventh Department's authority.
But if people from the Seventh Department can help convey their wishes, their energy is incredible.
Who is behind Part Seven? It's the emperor.
Of course, Zhu Cong would not think that the emperor would pay attention to a little Yang Cong. There must be someone else in charge of the seven departments.
But no matter who this person is, he is not someone Zhu Cong can provoke.
If he dared to instruct the Seven Ministries, the emperor would definitely know about it, but he still did it, which showed that he was not afraid of the emperor knowing, or in other words, even if the emperor knew, he wouldn't care.
Such a person's identity must be extraordinary.
Zhu Cong was certainly more afraid of offending such a being than the small benefits promised by Yang Shu.
It's just that Zhu Cong can't understand. He's just Yang Cong. Is there any need to make such a fuss?
Who wants to target Yang Cong and the Yang family?
After the commander left, Zhu Cong fell into deep thought.
Suddenly, Zhu Cong woke up with a start, "Sinan Bo's crown prince, Shen Qingyun?"
Zhu Cong had some suspicions that Shen Qingyun was targeting Yang Cong. If anyone wanted Yang Cong to die, it could only be Shen Qingyun.
But, does Shen Qingyun have such great energy?
His father, Uncle Si Nan and Shen Xiong, don’t have one, right?
After shaking his head, Zhu Cong realized that he was already sweating profusely, and even his cotton-padded clothes were a little soaked.
"Yang Cong, it's time to die."
Of course, Shen Qingyun still knew nothing about this.
The next day, Zhang Nan and Zhong Qi went to help build the wine shop, while Shen Qingyun and Qiaoer played with mulberry paper in the main hall.
"The mulberry paper is too rough and cannot be used to practice writing. What is the prince buying so many of them for?"
Shen Qingyun just smiled when he heard this, turned around and said loudly: "Xiaohuan, bring the scissors."
When Xiaohuan brought the scissors, Shen Qingyun drew lines with charcoal and then cut them out.
"Help me quickly. Cut all the mulberry papers into the same size. Get forty or fifty sheets first."
"oh oh..."
Qiaoer and Xiaohuan responded to help, and the three of them worked for a while, and soon cut out dozens of palm-sized squares.
"Get pen and ink... No need, just use it."
Shen Qingyun picked up the charcoal pen and was about to draw, but stopped immediately.
"Poker cards are imported after all. They don't know Arabic numerals. The gameplay is easy to learn. I'm afraid this knowledge is not easy to acquire overnight. I am running a gambling house, not a school..."
"There are also knights, queens and kings. If you want to draw these, why don't you behead them first?"
"Well..." Shen Qingyun touched his head and froze in place, lost in thought.
After a moment, Shen Qingyun's eyes lit up.
"Yes."
Shen Qingyun started the localization of playing cards as soon as he wrote.
"The black and red plum blossoms correspond to the four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter. The so-called spring flowers and autumn moon, summer cicadas and winter snow, don't they complement each other?"
"There are twelve pictures from 2 to 13 o'clock. Isn't it said that there are twelve months in a year?"
"Old A can do fourteen o'clock, or one o'clock, and then draw wind, rain, thunder and lightning, which means good weather."
"Big and small kings...the door gods on the left and right, go in and out safely."
Shen Qingyun once created, and although it was rough, he also completed the framework.
"All year round, in December, there are wind, rain, thunder and lightning, um, good, good, good, good."
Shen Qingyun nodded with satisfaction.
Qiao'er and Xiaohuan stared blankly at the side, their eyes full of confusion. They had no idea what Shen Qingyun was drawing on.
"Little ring."
Xiaohuan came back to his senses after hearing this, "What are your orders, Your Majesty?"
Shen Qingyun asked: "Is there anyone good at painting in Liangzhou City? What I want is someone who can paint on this small piece of paper."
Shen Qingyun just made a rough idea. If you want to make something exquisite, you still need professionals.
Qiao'er shook his head and said: "The mulberry bark is rough, so it may be difficult to paint."
Shen Qingyun waved his hand, "It doesn't need to be exquisite, as long as you can draw better than me."
Qiao'er glanced at the ghost drawing talisman on the piece of paper and said with a smile, "That's probably there."
Shen Qingyun smiled, looked at Xiaohuan and said, "Did you hear that? Go find Lao Qi and ask Lao Qi to find two more. By the way, remember to find two more skilled carpenters."
"yes."
After watching Xiaohuan leave, Qiaoer asked in confusion: "What does the Crown Prince want to do?"
Shen Qingyun smiled and explained: "The wine shop and restaurant have been put on the agenda, but no matter how fast we rush, we will not see the money until next year. We still have to make some quick money and save more principal."
"So?" Qiao'er was still puzzled.
Shen Qingyun picked up the piece of paper and said: "I have been to a gambling house in the city. The gameplay is really old and simple. This thing is called poker. It is a new gambling method that I... researched. If it can be promoted, it may become popular. .”
Qiaoer frowned and said, "So what the prince means is that he wants to open a gambling house?"
"Yes." Shen Qingyun nodded.
Qiaoer quickly said: "This is a low-level business, and the status of the prince..."
Shen Qingyun shook his head and said: "What kind of person is from the lower class to the third class? Am I a person who abides by etiquette and law?"
"Uh..." Qiaoer was speechless.
"Besides, I won't come forward in person." Shen Qingyun chuckled and reached out to brush Qiao'er's cheek, "I just want to give you a hard time."
Qiaoer's cheeks were slightly red and she lowered her head.
"Qiao'er knows."
Shen Qingyun smiled when he saw this, stood up and said, "It's too troublesome, why don't you change your name, Qiao'er?"
Qiaoer is quite famous in Liangzhou City, but now that he wants to go out and show his face, the name Qiaoer is not very convenient.
Qiaoer was stunned and responded: "Then please ask the Crown Prince to give Qiaoer a name."
Shen Qingyun thought for a moment, suddenly had an idea, and said with a smile: "After I leave, Xiaozhen and Xiaohuan will follow you. If you can be taken care of by Zhenhuan, of course you will be the fourth mother. From now on, you will be called the fourth mother." Come on, Xu Siniang."
"Four Niangs..."
Qiaoer, no, it should be Siniang now.
Siniang muttered her new name in a low voice, then bowed and nodded: "Thank you, Crown Prince, for giving me the name. From now on, I will be called Siniang."
Although she didn't understand the logic of Shen Qingyun's name at all, Siniang still accepted Shen Qingyun's bad taste.
It was not difficult to find painters and carpenters, and Zhong Qi quickly brought them back.
Two painters, two carpenters.
The painter looks a bit bookish and quite old. He should be a failed scholar or something.
The two carpenters were honest craftsmen.
"I've met the prince."
"Stop being so polite. Come on, listen to what I'm telling you."
Shen Qingyun stepped forward, pulled the four of them, and began to teach them how to make the playing cards and mahjong.
"I want small pieces of wood of the same size. You don't have to be so precise the first time. Just know what I want..."
"Yes, make a mold, it's best to make it smooth..."
"Ceramics... Ceramics are not good. They break when dropped and don't last long..."
"Engraved with words...what words? Wanzi note tube..."
Shen Qingyun drooled, and the two carpenters were stunned for a long time. It took them a long time to digest what Shen Qingyun said.
Then Shen Qingyun didn't feel tired and continued to output to the two painters.
"Flowers, cicadas, moons, and snow represent the four seasons. Yes, each point must have one..."
"It's not easy to draw wind, rain, thunder and lightning. You don't know how to draw people? There are unions of Feng Bo, Rain Master, Thunder God and Lightning Mother, right?"
"When cutting, you have to be more neat and the sizes must be the same..."
After tinkering with it, Shen Qingyun still felt that there were some problems. He had to make it more standard after all. If it was so rough and simple, he might not be able to use it.
But after all, it was the first time, and Shen Qingyun didn't care. He told them his request first, and then he could do it more delicately.
As dusk approached, the four of them handed over the mahjong cards they had made to Shen Qingyun for inspection.
"Well... not bad..." Although it is still rough, Shen Qingyun is still satisfied.
"You all know how to make these two things, right?"
"If you return to the throne, all the little people will know."
Shen Qingyun nodded and said: "Then go back and study it, and make it more refined for me. There should be no clapping in the mahjong, and the poker pictures should be eye-catching and not squandered. Do you understand?"
"The villain knows."
"Make two pairs of mahjong first, and ten decks of poker cards. Send them here when you're done. Don't worry, I won't treat you badly, Lao Qi..."
Zhong Qi understood and stepped forward to give two pieces of broken silver.
"This is a fixed payment, and if you get more, you will be rewarded, but the work must be done by me."
The four people got the money, with joy on their faces.
"Your Majesty, don't worry, I will keep it to your satisfaction."
"Take these mulberry papers back and you can go."
"I'll take my leave, villain."
After sending the four people away, it was already getting late, but Shen Qingyun was in high spirits.
"Your Majesty." Zhang Nan came quickly.
"What's wrong?" Shen Qingyun was stunned.
Zhang Nan said: "There is news from the uncle's house that the county magistrate will kill Yang Cong tomorrow."
"What?"
Shen Qingyun was a little surprised, "How could this happen?"
Didn't Yang Shu negotiate good terms with Magistrate Zhu?
It's impossible. Song Ying had sent news before, saying that Yang Shu had bribed County Magistrate Zhu and would soon find a way to get Yang Cong out.
Why did the two of them suddenly fall out?
No, Yang Shu is not a fool. Even if Zhu County Magistrate Lion opens his mouth, Yang Shu will definitely agree at this time...
No, no, even if Yang Shu and Magistrate Zhu fall out, if the local magistrate wants to carry out the death penalty, shouldn't he wait until the Ministry of Punishment's receipt is delivered?
Didn't Song Ying say that Yang Shu had already established connections with the Ministry of Justice, so the receipt would definitely not be delivered?
Then why did County Magistrate Zhu dare to kill Yang Cong?
Aren't you afraid that Yang Shu will sue him afterwards?
Regardless of whether Yang Cong should die or not, Magistrate Zhu clearly broke the rules...
Shen Qingyun frowned, he really couldn't think of what went wrong.
Although he was happy to see such a result, this feeling of uncertainty still made people a little uncomfortable.
"Where is Yang Shu? Zhu Cong wants to kill Yang Cong, what is Yang Shu's reaction?"
Zhang Nan said: "Yang Shu went to the government office, but he didn't even see Mr. Zhu's face."
"Why did the two of them fall out?"
Zhang Nan shook his head, "Madam doesn't know either. I only know that the two of them had an agreement yesterday, but I don't know why the magistrate suddenly changed his mind."
