In the Southern Song Dynasty, I competed with Mongolia for the world

Chapter 109 You Can Trick King Yi

East Palace.

After Rou Ji's piano was dropped, Prince Zhao Mian's beloved Ji Rou Yan and several other beauties suddenly proposed to play mahjong.

Zhao Mian knew mahjong was invented by King Yi Zhao Yurui, and now it is popular inside and outside the palace.

He was quite displeased with this kind of gambling, but he couldn't help it if the Ai Ji wanted to play.

At the beginning, he directly wanted to find someone to do it, but the beauties persuaded them one after another. The official wrote the only one in the world with his own hand, and it was difficult for others to do it.

If Zhao Mian had a slightly higher EQ, he would send someone to ask Zhao Yurui for it, even if he wanted ten sets, Zhao Yurui would give it to him.

But he is not happy with Zhao Yurui now, let alone send someone to beg him in a low voice.

"Call Qian Bin." Zhao Mian directly called the head of the Imperial City Division and promoted Qian Bin, the Imperial City Division.

Qian Bin just came to power the year before last, and he was promoted by Zhao Mian to be the Secretary of the Imperial City. He is Zhao Mian's biggest confidant in the capital army.

At that time, Shi Miyuan wanted to recommend Zheng Fa, the commander of the imperial army, who was also a member of Xia Zhen.

But Zhao Hong stood up, and Zhen Dexiu forced Ningzong by establishing a prince.

The soft-eared and indecisive Song Ningzong was in a dilemma, and finally made a compromise, that is, not to establish a prince, and at the same time agreed to the candidate recommended by Zhao Mian. Both sides were happy.

Qian Bin was in his early thirties and was very capable. He was promoted by the Secretary of the Imperial City before, and he was promoted by Guan Li.

Guan Li was an eunuch during Xiaozong Guangzong's time. He was known even when he was in the Ministry of Internal Affairs. When Ningzong came to the throne, he had already been promoted to the Imperial City Secretary. After returning home, Qian Bin lost his support in the imperial city.

Fortunately, Zhao Mian appeared later, Qian Bin saw the opportunity, decisively took refuge, and finally made a step forward, becoming the top leader of the Imperial City Division.

But even though he is the top leader, according to the Song Dynasty system, his income is not much higher.

His actual position is the head of the Imperial City Department, but he is only a seventh-rank military wing doctor, and he is quite depressed with the salary of a military officer.

The head of the Imperial City Department is said to be an important post in the capital, with a high position and authority, but the system of the Song Dynasty is wonderful, and the actual position and rank are irrelevant.

It can be done from the seventh rank to the second rank, and military officers and eunuchs can also do it.

The lowest in history is Cui Xiangxian, who was promoted during Shenzong's time, and served as the imperial city secretary from the seventh-rank protocol deputy envoy.

In addition, like Zhao Kuo in Gaozong's time, he was also the seventh rank, and there were countless other six ranks and five ranks. Guan Li was only the fifth rank in those days.

Qian Bin is also at the seventh rank now, so he has to hug the thigh of the prince Zhao Mian tightly. Shi Miyuan is one day, and it is difficult for him to rise up in this rank. Shi Miyuan has nothing to do with him as a real job, but there are plenty of means to suppress his rank. .

Therefore, only when the prince Zhao Mian is in power and becomes the emperor, can Qian Bin's good life fly.

"The last general pays homage to His Highness." Qian Bin entered the East Palace and bowed immediately, with a very respectful attitude.

Zhao Mian didn't ask him to get up, and said directly: "Go get a set of mahjong and come back."

Qian Bin was stunned for a moment, of course he knew what mahjong was.

Recently, there was a big fire in the capital. Many people from the Imperial City Department went to play billiards and mahjong every day. Many people played at home, and some played in the card room outside. Qian Bin also learned it, but he had never been to the card room. He bought a set of mahjong and often went to Qian Bin's house to play. He also won a lot of money for this.

According to many subordinates, King Yi made a lot of money this time, and the salaries of the brothers in Huangcheng Division were all earned by King Yi.

Qian Bin was very envious when he heard this.

Today the prince Zhao Mian suddenly asked him to buy a set of mahjong, Qian Bin was sure he heard correctly, Zhao Mian said yes, but did not buy it.

He seemed to understand what the prince meant, and immediately cupped his fists and said, "Your Highness, please rest assured, you will come as soon as you go."

When he walked out of the East Palace, Qian Bin was very proud that he could finally get the King Yi.

The King of Yi had no power and power, and he set up a poker room with great fanfare as soon as he arrived in the capital. Not to mention making a lot of money, he even made money from our Imperial City Secretary.

I heard that Yang Yuehu often goes to play, and there are discounts, but have you given me face?
Qian Bin, as the head of the Imperial City Department, has never been to Zhao Yurui's poker room. You say he is happy.

In particular, Yang Yuehu was his opponent. When the two of them abdicated in Guan Li, they both wanted to compete for promotion.

Yang Yuehu failed to seek refuge with Shi Miyuan, so Shi Miyuan recommended Zheng Fa.

Fortunately, Qian Bin took the first step and took refuge in Zhao Mian.

This time, Yang Yuehu must be embarrassed.

Qian Bin led people out of the imperial city excitedly, but he never thought that Zhao Mian was a straight man, and his words were relatively simple and direct. Zhao Mian's original intention was to let Qian Bin buy a pair of mahjong, but he was embarrassed to say that he would buy this Words, as a prince, I want a set of mahjong from my younger brother Zhao Yurui, don't I want to lose face?
After walking out of the imperial city, Qian Bin asked an officer beside him, "Where do Yang Yuehu and the others usually play now?"

The officer laughed and said: "I used to go to Dajiale, but later King Yi opened a new store next to the Imperial Medical Bureau, called Dajiale No. [-], and Yang Yuehu and the others went there to play, and the distance is closer."

Speaking of this, the officer suddenly lowered his voice and whispered: "I heard that Mrs. Mao Tong over there is often helping, and Mao Tong may also have a share." When he spoke, the expression on his face was envious and jealous.

Na Maotong was originally an officer, just like him, but he was lucky enough to be sent to guard Wei Wangfu, so he got to know Yi Wang.

After Yi Wang opened a shop, Mao Tong brought a large number of brothers to play, and it is said that Yi Wang valued it deeply.

Not long after, Yang Yuehu was about to promote Mao Tong to the command (head of the capital).

Qian Bin didn't refuse at the time. He and Yang Yuehu both wanted to promote their brothers. Usually, the two would have a tacit understanding. It wasn't an important position, and they wouldn't hold each other back.

Moreover, he is the head of the Imperial City Department, and many important positions are his own.

Now that Qian Bin thinks about it, Mao Tong should have hooked up with King Yi, that's why Yang Yuehu proposed to call him. If he had known this, he shouldn't have agreed, Te Niang: "Go, go to No. [-]."

He led a group of people out of the palace gate and went directly to Café de Coral No. [-].

Zhao Mian didn't speak before, he didn't want to offend King Yi, but now Zhao Mian opened his mouth, one is the crown prince and the other is a powerless heir, what is Qian Bin afraid of.

Although it was said that Zhao Yurui belonged to Shi Miyuan, Shi Miyuan had nothing to do with him. What's more, when Shi Miyuan wanted to recommend Zheng Fa, Qian Bin almost didn't get up.

A group of about twenty people came to Café de Coral No. [-] aggressively.

This store is a bit far from the main store of Café de Coral, but it is closer to the Qun Le Yuan because it is on the south side of the city and close to Tai Hospital.

This side is relatively close to the imperial city, and there are quite a lot of imperial city officials and imperial guards who came to play. Qian Bin saw people queuing up at the door from a long distance, there were three or forty people, and his expression changed drastically.

He seldom paid attention to it. If he hadn't walked this way, he wouldn't have known there was a poker room here: "There are so many people queuing up for these poker rooms in King Yi every day?"

Someone beside him said: "It's like this every day, it's still in the morning, and there will be more people in the afternoon."

Qian Bin's eyes were red, and he was very jealous. He wished he could sell this shop and do it himself: "How many shops does King Yi have in Lin'an?"

"Four stores have been opened, and there are still a few that seem to be in development. The largest one is expected to open early next year."

Another person said: "I heard that King Yi said in public that he wants to open fifty branches in Lin'an."

"Isn't that worth the money?" The people who followed Qian Bin shouted, "His daily income is indispensable for this shop."

"Eighty cents and a quarter of an hour, stealing money."

"Mahjong is more expensive. The private room lasts an hour, and sitting in a day costs several times."

Everyone said something to me, and they all said envy, jealousy and hatred, wishing that they could open a few stores by themselves.

And humanely, you wouldn't buy a set of mahjong to play at home.

Immediately someone said, mahjong is also fifty per set, which is outrageously expensive, and besides, playing at home is not as enjoyable as playing in a store. If you lose, the women will make a fuss.

Qian Bin listened without saying a word, feeling extremely unbalanced in his heart. I am the top leader of the imperial city, but I am not as good as Mao Tong?
At this time, they had already arrived at the gate, and as expected, more than half of the people in line were the Imperial City Secretary or the Forbidden Army.

Someone with sharp eyes shouted suddenly: "Isn't this Tuesday dog, you are not on duty today?"

That Tuesday, the dog was almost in line for him, and there were two people in front of him. When he heard someone calling him, he looked back and his face changed drastically.

Qian Bin was furious: "This dog, didn't come here to play ball on duty? Get it caught by me."

"Qian Tiju, please forgive me." On that Tuesday, the dog soul flew away, and it was useless to beg for mercy. Qian Bin's men dragged him out of the team on the spot, and beat him on the ground.

These people just came here to make trouble, and just now they heard that they were very unbalanced on the way, so they started fighting if they didn't seize the opportunity.

There was a flutter of chickens and dogs jumping outside the door, and many imperial officials who were not on duty also fled.

Only the imperial guards looked at them as if they were sb.

Some people also said, don't you just play a ball, as for beating brothers like this?

"What did Miss Nunni say? This is Mrs. Qian, our money lifter."

The person on the other side probably didn't know Qian Bin, but when he heard that it was a promotion, he shut up immediately.

At this time, Qian Bin didn't care about the dog on Tuesday, and rushed in with his people.

The place inside is not big, there are only five or six pool tables, and three of them are played by people from the Imperial City Division. The clothes are too obvious, and you can tell it at a glance.

When everyone saw Qian Bin, they all screamed.

"Money lift."

"General Qian."

In short, there are various names, because indeed they can be called this way.

"Get out of here." Someone shouted sharply.

These people were so frightened that they fled one after another without paying the money.

"What are you doing, do you know whose shop this is?" A middle-aged man walked towards him at this moment.

This is Mao Guoying, the uncle of Mao's clan. He casually pointed to a plaque hanging on the wall of the hall.

The above are the four big characters of "the only one in the world" written by the officials.

One of Qian Bin's subordinates was an official and wanted to slap him. Fortunately, Qian Bin had quick eyesight and quick hands, so he quickly stopped him. Are you kidding me?

"Is Yang Yuehu here?" Qian Bin asked in a deep voice.

Mao Guoying saw his imposing manner, but he was also a little flustered, so he could only nod: "Yang Tidian is in the upstairs box."

"Tell him to get off." Someone said arrogantly.

Qian Bin frowned, but didn't say anything.

He is Yang Yuehu's immediate boss, so it's understandable to tell him to get out, but he didn't want to be so arrogant in the first place.
