"Besides, it was a dream, so it's not very clear. But I can be sure that the Third Prince did not instigate the Crown Prince and the First Prince. No one knows why the two were deposed, and the news was kept secret. From beginning to end, the Third Prince has never formed a clique, nor cultivated his own power."
"The Saint... After the First Prince was demoted to a commoner, the Saint gave you all the power that was originally prepared for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. With the support of those powers and ministers, your succession to the throne was also very smooth. You yourself are also very capable and talented, and you have recruited all the people who originally supported the First Prince into your own service."
"Your Highness, if you want to know more details, I will tell you the first time I have any predictive dreams in the future." Su Zhier said hurriedly.
The Third Prince glanced at Su Zhier and Su Guangcheng and shouted, "Take them away!"
"Your Highness, what do you think?" Su Guangcheng asked, "Your Highness, do you believe us?"
"Your Highness, what I said is true!" Su Zhier said as she was dragged out, "I will know more in the future, Your Highness! What I said is true, I will definitely know more!"
After the two were taken away, the third prince pressed a secret compartment on the wall.
A shelf on the wall slowly moved to the side.
It turned out that there was an inner room inside.
The third prince went into the inner room, where the saint was sitting!
"Father." The Third Prince bowed, "I dare not and have never had the heart to compete for it."
"I know." The Saint helped the Third Prince up. "Su Zhi'er also said that you never formed a clique until the end. The road ahead was paved by me."
The third prince was too clean, so clean from the inside out that he was trying hard to tell him that he had no interest in the throne.
"How can anyone believe the nonsense that Su Zhier and Su Guangcheng say?" said the saint.
Even if he believed it, he would only consider the future of the crown prince and the eldest prince.
It's just too early to think about what the future will be like.
But if there is such a sign in the future, at least the saint will remember what happened today and get a reminder.
He didn't believe that his two sons could have committed such a big mistake that one was deposed and the other was demoted.
Something must have happened to him.
Ruo Suzhi
It's okay that I'm just talking nonsense.
If it is true, it would be fine if we didn't know it before.
Now that we know about it, we must investigate it thoroughly. We must not wrongly accuse the Crown Prince and the Eldest Prince, and we must also find out the person who instigated the incident behind the scenes.
"Keep an eye on Su Guangcheng and Su Zhier. Don't let them talk nonsense, and don't let their nonsense spread." said the saint.
Regardless of whether what they say is true or false, their words must not be spread.
If it is true, then they will be useful in the future.
The sage could not wait for two or three years before he instructed: "During this period, get more words out of their mouths."
"yes."
The saint took the third prince away. The third prince's back was soaked with cold sweat, and he didn't know whether the saint believed him or not.
I swear to God, he really didn't want that position.
Is he crazy? With his own limited ability and no support, he still wants to fight for the throne?
Without Su Guangcheng and Su Zhier, there wasn't much splash in the capital.
In addition to Su Guangcheng's colleagues who were a little puzzled as to why Su Guangcheng had not come in recent days, several young ladies that Su Zhier knew also seemed a little strange.
But after all, she is a girl in the boudoir and is restricted by her family and cannot go out often.
Therefore, no one asked about Su Zhier's whereabouts.
On this day, Li Mumu, Li Zhiyin and the monk's wife made an appointment to meet at the newly opened Wangyou Xiaojie in Beijing.
There are many people and guests in Beijing, so the scale of Wangyou Xiaoxi is much larger than the one in Chong'an.
There are more rooms and they are larger in size.
But according to the original standards, the first floor still receives female guests who are reluctant or feel there is no need to go to the room.
According to the modern booth layout, the seat entrances are blocked by curtains, which can also maintain privacy.
The second floor is the private room.
This time, massage service was added on the third floor.
In the smaller private rooms, incense that can calm the mind is burning, and special maids come to give massages to the guests.
The room where Li Mumu and the other two had their Wangyou Xiaoxi gathering was located in the largest private room on the second floor.
Li Zhiyin and the monk's wife both knew about Su Guangcheng and Su Zhier's affair.
General Li and
General Shang told them everything when he returned.
So when they met, they never mentioned the matter again.
"After I arrived, I collected some unique trinkets, jewelry, and cloth from the capital and sent them to Huilan." Madam Shang said, "But the items were not many, so the escort agency refused to accept them. Besides, asking the escort agency to send these things is really... a bit of a waste of talent."
"I can only send my servants to make a special trip." Madam Shang said, "How great would it be if we could find someone to deliver it directly like a errand shop?"
"At least the errand shop is within the city, so the distance is short." Li Zhiyin said, "If it is from the capital to nearby places, it is not bad. But from the capital to Chong'an, it is too far. How can we find a similar errand shop?"
"Actually...it may not be impossible." Li Mumu said.
"Do you have another idea?" Mrs. Shang asked hurriedly.
"In fact, I thought about it on the way here. If we just send a letter, it's easy. There are post stations to deliver it one by one. But what if the things we send are a little more, but not enough to find a escort agency? If the family is well-off, we can send servants to deliver it, but what about ordinary families?"
"For ordinary families, those who work in Beijing are not well off and have relatives in their hometowns. If they want to buy something new in Beijing and send it back to their hometowns, it is not convenient. They can only wait for someone they know to pass by and bring it to them. But how can such a coincidence happen?"
"So I'm also considering the possibility of opening a freight shop." Li Mumu said, "If you open an errand shop like me, you have shops in many cities, which is very convenient."
"We'll start with the pilot project in the towns where there are errand shops. We'll rent a warehouse in the city," Li Mumu said, "and transport the goods from city to city. We'll sort the goods in the warehouse to see where they need to be shipped to, and then divide them into different routes based on the destinations, and send them to the next place."
"In this way, even if ordinary people want to send something back home, or want to send something to their friends, even if it's just a small amount, it can be shipped over." Li Mumu said, "As long as a certain freight fee is paid."
"Yes, in this case, for example, if we want to transport something to Chong'an, there must be someone in Beijing who wants to deliver it. If we deliver it ourselves, we don't know many people, so naturally we can't find anyone to deliver it with us."
