I hurried to the palace with Wu Song, looking very anxious. What did you say? Why am I so anxious? Of course, I want to make a deep contribution to my Song Dynasty's fiscal revenue and intelligence collection work to further improve my Song Dynasty.

Soon Wu Song and I arrived at the palace gate and happened to see Fang Kong standing there. He seemed to be scolding two imperial guards who had just joined the job.

"What are you doing with your ears?! What's the matter?! I've told you so many times, and you're not allowed to leave your post while on duty. You said that you two have to go to the cottage together. I don't know if you have to leave one person and stand guard. I'm going together. If you go alone, you can lose it. If the eagle takes it away, what's the matter..." I looked at Fang Kong, looking at him, and he kept criticizing the two young guards.

"Cough, cough." I coughed twice gently to remind Fang Kong of my arrival

"Why are you coughing, your throat is stuck..." Fang Kong turned his head and saw a very twisted face. When Fang Kong saw that I was behind him, he almost got scared on the spot. He quickly said to me in a very flattering manner: "Oh, Master, you are back, please come in and hehe."

Why does this sound so familiar? Why do you always feel that you have heard it there? But I have some urgent matters, so I don’t have time to care about Fang Kong scolding me just now, and I said to him: “Fang Kong, arrange someone to go immediately. Tiehu, Liu Shihai, Zheng Junyan and Kaifeng Prefecture Wang Jin, call me to my imperial study.”

"Yes, yourselves, I will arrange this matter immediately." Fang Kong immediately took the order with a serious expression when he heard that there was a task.

"My throat should be fine." I suddenly said this, almost scaring Fang Kong to death.

"Ha, hehe, hehe, hehe" Fang Kong smiled like crying with a slurred face. Looking at Fang Kong, I was so scared that I was sweating coldly. My mood instantly felt much more relaxed.

When I was about to arrive at the Imperial Study room, Xiao Douzi and Yudie, who received the news of my return, were already waiting for me at the door of the Imperial Study room. It seemed that not only the two of them were the only ones, but I also felt a burst of murderous aura.

After I pushed the door and entered the imperial study, I saw my empress dowager sitting on the collapse. Her originally kind face was now expressionless. My dear four wives were also sitting on the couch, and their faces were also covered with ice frost

I turned around and stared at Xiao Douzi and Yudie viciously, and whispered: "Who has exposed me this, I said."

"Don't blame them, it was the Ai family who forced them to say it." The Empress Dowager's mother said at this time.

"My son pays me a favor to my mother." I quickly went up and bowed to my mother and bowed to me.

The Queen Mother seemed to have no intention of asking me to sit down, so she continued to say to me: "Where did the emperor go to tonight?"

You old man knows that he still asks. I thought depressedly, but I can't say that, "This, my son went to inspect the market tonight and wanted to expand the business scope of our Royal Trading Company." I smiled with a flattering smile

"Oh? Is that right? Then the emperor went to the Yanyu Building to expand the business scope of the royal business?" The empress dowager said to me in a bad way.

"Of course, why would my son go to those places?"

As I was speaking, Tiehu's voice came from outside the imperial study: "My memory, Tiehu, I will be summoned to come to the imperial front to see the emperor."

Oh, Lao Tie, savior, I love you so much. I immediately said to the Empress Dowager's mother and my wives: "Look at Tiehu, I'm calling him to come for business. Later, the Ministry of Rites, Ministry of Revenue, and Kaifeng Prefecture will come."

"Okay, I will believe you for the time being. Let's go to the ear room to listen. If you are because of your private affairs or for some red card girl, hum, let's see if you don't pull your ears away." The Queen Mother threatened me. Alas, it's also difficult for her. My wives are watching here, and she can't openly favor me.

"You can listen, but you can't speak out, let alone interfere." The flattering smile on my face had been stopped, and instead of an extremely serious emperor face, I turned to Yudie, the Queen and others and said, "Help the Queen Mother go to the ear room to serve tea. You several, take your masters too."

"Yes, the emperor." My face changed instantly, and then it would shock these women. Well, the effect is good, I will do it in the future

"My minister, Liu Shihai, Zheng Junyan, Wang Jin, are called to meet His Majesty." The voices of several other people came from outside the door.

After watching the Empress Dowager and others enter the ear room, I walked to the Long Case and sat down, and said to Xiaodouzi: "Let them come in, and then give me a cup of tea. After talking for so long, my mouth was dry." I can't even pour water on the evil feudalism.

"I, please see the emperor, long live my emperor." The four of them bowed to me and said, "

"Sit flat, give me a seat and watch tea." Since I don't like the ministers kneeling to me after going to court, so now, as long as they are not at the court meeting, the ministers will bow to me and bow to me.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." The four of them separated and sat down with half of their butts.

Since Liu Shihai has the highest rank, he took the lead and asked me: "I wonder what instructions the emperor has to ask me to come?"

"Liu Aiqing, our Royal Inn transport, how are the taverns, inns, brothels, and gambling halls along the way?" I asked.

"When I say to the emperor, the inns of our various inns along the way are well managed, while the gambling halls are only available in larger inns. As for brothels... this is not very ideal."

"What if those brothels are all in various cities?"

"The competition is too fierce. Even if we vigorously open brothels, we don't have so many beautiful girls in our hands."

"Tiehu, where is the most widely sourced in all our intelligence collection work?" I asked Tiehu again.

"When I say to the emperor, the most extensive information gains are taverns, inns, casinos and brothels. It's just that our own brothel gambling houses are not very effective."

"I went to Yanyulou for a survey today. Their annual income will be about 400,000 yuan or even higher. There are about 23 brothels in Bianliang City, and about 40 large casinos. If the annual income of a brothel is 400,000 yuan, then these 23 brothels can earn more than 9 million yuan a year. In addition, the casinos are only gambling halls and brothels in the capital. Most of these gambling halls and brothels have crimes such as forcing good men to become prostitutes, even killing people to silence. The girls' bodies do not undergo Jiankang inspection and conditioning due to long-term reception of customers, and many of them have diseases of the willow. Zheng Junyan, the Ministry of Rites has issued a management measure for brothels and gambling halls across the country. The day after tomorrow, Daqing Hall, and the Grand Court meeting,"
