The current Emperor of the Western Tang Dynasty, Mo Wanling, is the fifth son of the first emperor and has reigned for more than 20 years. The first emperor had a total of sixteen princes, except for Mo Bangling who succeeded to the throne, only Mo Bangchi was canonized as the red prince by Mo Bangling, and some of the rest of the brothers were defeated in the competition that year, and some were eliminated one after another after Mo Bangling ascended the throne. Since the current Western Tang Emperor was able to stand out from the battle for the heir back then and got rid of all the threats, it can be seen that his mind and ruthlessness are too ordinary.

Mo Wanchi has always had a clear attitude of protecting himself, and he has been an idle prince for more than 20 years. Although Mo Wanfei is a daughter, her power in the court cannot be underestimated, Mo Wanling has always turned a blind eye to what he does as an imperial sister, as long as the other party is not too excessive, he pretends to turn a blind eye. The reason why Mo Wanling was able to do what he did was probably related to the fact that Mo Wanfei had been supporting him behind him in the battle for the heir back then, and even had a life-saving grace for him. In order to save him from being seriously injured, Mo Wanfei was unable to have children from then on, and Mo Wanling has always felt guilty about this matter.

At present, there are three factions in the Western Tang Dynasty, the emperor, the crown prince and the four princes. Behind the crown prince is the eldest princess Mo Wanfei, and behind the fourth prince is his mother. The crown prince Mo Qingran's mother died early, and his mother's power was weak, so it didn't help him much, and the reason why he was able to sit on the throne of the crown prince was because he took refuge in the eldest princess faction. Mo Qingran was more ambitious than he could, and after standing on the front line with Mo Wanfei, he was gradually controlled by Mo Wanfei, and his position as the crown prince was just an ornament for him. The fourth prince, Mo Qingyao, his biological mother Yan Guifei is the head of the four noble concubines and the daughter of the right prime minister, so the right prime minister's faction supports the four princes. Today's queen is the daughter of the left minister, but unfortunately the queen has no children, only two little princesses, and the left minister has not expressed his support for the prince or the fourth prince, and he is considered the emperor.

And Mo Qingyan, the third prince who has been re-mentioned recently, if Mo Wanchi did not mention this person in the court, I am afraid that everyone has forgotten this prince who has been in Nanyu for eight years. Mo Qingyan, the biological mother Concubine Jing is the daughter of the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, and the maternal clan is weak, so Mo Wanling ordered Mo Qingyan to go to Nanyu, Concubine Jing could only watch her son embark on the road to the frontier after kneeling for a day and a night to no avail. Even a few days ago, Mo Wanchi, the prince of Chi, suddenly proposed to summon Mo Qingyan back to the court for two consecutive days, and Yin Jiang, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, did not say a word, neither agreed nor objected, and Concubine Jing heard about this and only said lightly, "I know." He didn't say anything more, and he didn't even ask the emperor to agree to the Red Prince's proposal.

"It's not normal." Lu Qianmo looked at the latest information about Mo Qingyan and commented.

"What's not normal?" Qin whispered to the person and appeared in Lu Qianmo's study.

"It's okay, I just feel that this Concubine Jing and her family don't react normally." Lu Qianmo lit the letter with a candle, and said to Qin Wei at the same time: "You have something to do with me?" ”

"It's not me looking for you, it's the boss of the gambling house looking for you." Qin Wei looked out the door, "The person is already outside." ”

"Let him in."

Boss Zhang is the person in charge of Mo Yange's gambling house in Fenshui City, a middle-aged man of forty.

Soon, Qin Wei led Boss Zhang in, "See Pavilion Master." ”

"Boss Zhang, don't be polite." Lu Qianmo motioned for the other party to sit down and talk, "What are you looking for me today?" "Generally, after the operation of the major industries in Moyan Pavilion other than the intelligence system matures, Lu Qianmo rarely asks in person, and Qin Wei is responsible for taking care of the accounts in various places. The Ink Flame Pavilion has a direct person in charge in each of the four countries, and they are responsible for the operation of those stores. Western Tang was originally Wei Feng in charge, but he was sent out by Lu Qianmo, and now Lu Qianmo personally represents him.

Boss Zhang is a straight person, and when he saw Lu Qianmo asking, he directly explained his intentions. "Today, the housekeeper of Cao Yuanwai's house came to me and said that they wanted to buy a set of jade magnolia mahjong sets launched by the gambling house three months ago, as long as we sold them to them, Cao Yuanwai was willing to pay any amount of money. Since the jade magnolia is only one set, and it was bought at that time, this matter needs to be asked to the pavilion master, how should we deal with it. Because he knew that Lu Qianmo attached great importance to the income of the mahjong set, although only one set of jade magnolia was launched at that time, Boss Zhang felt that this matter still needed to be reported to Lu Qianmo. Moreover, Cao Yuanwai is the richest man in Fenshui City, and it is necessary to have a good relationship with him.

Mahjong is a new type of gameplay launched by Lu Qianmo in all the gambling houses under Moyan Pavilion a year ago, and it has now become popular in all countries. At the beginning, Lu Qianmo cultivated a group of people, personally taught them how to play mahjong, and then let them go to all the gambling houses under Moyan Pavilion to openly rub mahjong every day to attract guests, and the gambling house set up free training courses to teach interested guests how to play mahjong, and stipulated that playing mahjong in Moyan Pavilion Casino only needs to pay five percent of the service fee, after attracting countless players, Moyan Pavilion continued to launch mahjong sets, different quality, design of the set price is different, welcome players with the strength and interest to buy home, You can enjoy mahjong at home. In line with the strong historical precedent that Youma will become the quintessence of the country, Lu Qianmo is confident that it will be promoted in the Xiachuan Continent and become a major weapon for its profit. Lu Qianmo announced on the first day of the launch of Mahjong in Moyan Pavilion that mahjong gameplay and products are the first and exclusive industry of Moyan Pavilion, and any other organization imitates the operation or production of piracy and infringement, and Moyan Pavilion will be held accountable, in fact, people in this era do not have much knowledge of copyright and patents, but everyone is hindered by the power of Moyan Pavilion and does not dare to overstep. And the rich people who have this hobby are willing to buy a genuine mahjong set produced by Moyan Pavilion, which is a matter of face. Therefore, at present, there is no gambling house in the Xiachuan Continent to follow the operation and operation of mahjong business, and the mahjong sets produced by Moyan Pavilion have sold more than 100,000 sets in a year. There are special regulations in the Moyan Pavilion, all the income from the mahjong set is used to raise the orphans adopted by the Moyan Pavilion every year and disaster relief, and the Moyan Pavilion has to embezzle it privately, otherwise it will be dealt with according to the rules of the Pavilion, and it will not be spared.

"Did the housekeeper say why Cao Yuanwai had to buy jade magnolias?" There are many different styles of Moyan Pavilion.

"It is said that the ladies in the inner room of Cao Yuanwai's house are in love with playing mahjong, and Cao Yuanwai's favorite third lady took a fancy to Jade Magnolia three months ago, but I didn't expect someone to shoot faster. In the past three months, the three ladies have been depressed and worried about the jade magnolia as a whole, and Cao Yuan is sad to see the beauty outside, so he is willing to pay a high price for Moyan Pavilion to build another set. Boss Zhang brought the words of the housekeeper of the Cao Mansion one by one.

"I didn't expect Cao Yuanwai to love the third lady so much." Qin Wei commented.

It's just that the boutique mahjong set produced by Moyan Pavilion is generally the only one, because no one among the nobles who can afford it wants to have the same style as others, but Lu Qianmo also left a way out. "Did the buyer ask for an agreement that we wouldn't make the same style again?" This sentence is not an interrogative sentence, because Lu Qianmo has already guessed it, otherwise Boss Zhang would not have come to him for this matter.

"Today I asked people to check, and found that the buyer did not ask for an agreement." Boss Zhang also felt strange when he heard this result at that time.

"The price of jade magnolia is expensive, and the people who can afford it must not be ordinary people. To be on the safe side, first contact the seller at the time and ask the other party's opinion. ”

"Okay."

"If the other party has no opinion. There is no need to overly premium the price on Cao Yuanwai's side, just a little higher than the price at that time, and this thing should be done as a favor that we sold to Cao Yuanwai. ”

"I understand. I'll go back and make arrangements. ”

Lu Qianmo nodded slightly in agreement.

"I don't know how much the favor of the richest man in Fenshui City is worth?" After Boss Zhang left, Qin Wei muttered excitedly.

Lu Qianmo couldn't help chuckling when she saw Qin Wei's appearance as a fan of wealth, "It's very valuable." ”
