But the key point is to keep it within a controllable range and let the saint know that he is jumping around.

If someone could really hide from the saint and secretly covet the position of crown prince, that would be another matter.

Now the Saint obviously suspects that the Third Prince has secretly built up his own power, and has been able to hide it from the Saint's eyes. How can the Saint be at ease?

You jumped up and down, letting me know that you have great power.

You jumped around and I knew nothing about it, you made me a fool.

The saint's face immediately looked very bad.

"Come here!" the saint gave an order.

A secret guard landed from somewhere and said, "Saint."

"Go and check what the Third Prince has been doing recently, who he is close to, and whether he is secretly building up his own power." said the Saint.

"yes."

After the secret guards left, the saint said to Li Huailin, "Leave Su Guangcheng alone for now. Find out the matter of the third prince first."

"yes."

"During this period, keep a close eye on Su Guangcheng and his daughter and don't let them talk nonsense." The saint said again.

"Yes." Li Huailin said.

After returning home, Gu Shangqing privately told Li Mumu about Su Guangcheng telling others about the third prince.

"So the saint asked people to investigate the third prince?" Li Mumu said.

Gu Shangqing nodded, "In fact, the Saint is very clear about the eldest prince's private affairs. Now that I think about it, the eldest prince is probably deliberately letting the Saint know. He put all his ambitions on the table, making the Saint feel that his son can't escape his control no matter what. So as long as he stays within the Saint's control, the Saint won't care no matter how the eldest prince messes up."

"But if the Third Prince could really keep the secret from the Saint and do many things secretly without the Saint knowing anything, then it would be different. The Saint would also be afraid that he would be tricked by the Third Prince at some unknown time." Gu Shangqing did not say that he was killed by the Third Prince. That was not easy to say.

"After all, the saint is now..." Gu Shangqing lowered his voice, "still in good health."

Even if there is a prince, he still has many years to wait.

When Li Mumu heard that the saint suspected the third prince for this, she couldn't help but feel sorry for the third prince for a while.

She has read the original novel and

It is said that the third prince is a real nobody and has no ideas at all.

My mother was the daughter of a minor official, and she had not been favored for a long time after entering the palace.

Later, she only followed the saint for one night and then became pregnant. She was considered lucky and gained some status in the palace and was conferred a noble lady.

But her family still did not get promoted. Even after giving birth to the third prince, she still had to live in fear in the palace.

The eldest prince and the crown prince were fighting fiercely. The third prince had no power or influence, so the crown prince and the eldest prince were too lazy to win him over.

He just keeps on being a nobody.

Until the end, the crown prince and the eldest prince were no longer able to do their job. When everyone saw that there was no one else but the third prince, they directly pulled the third prince to the throne.

The third prince completely got lucky.

Things like secretly forming cliques, winning over court officials, cultivating one's own power, or even raising an army, all of those things do not exist.

"So the Saint is now suspicious of the Third Prince?" Li Mumu asked in a low voice.

Gu Shangqing nodded.

Under the candlelight, looking at the jumping light emitted by the candle, Li Mumu silently lit a candle for the little transparent third prince.

But since the saint can investigate, it is good. After the investigation, we found out that the third prince is innocent.

It's just a pity for Su Guangcheng and Su Zhier who have been in prison and never seen the light of day.

The two had never suffered such hardship before.

Madam Su ran around outside and looked for many people, but no one dared to help her.

These days, Li Mumu has been familiarizing herself with the environment in Beijing with Wang Cuizhen and Zhang Caiping, and taking a look at the restaurants and hotels in Beijing.

"The situation in Beijing is complicated. Those big restaurants are probably backed by dignitaries, and some of them are even the owners themselves." Li Mumu said, "We are new here, so we don't need to compete with them for business, and we may not be able to do so."

Wang Cuizhen nodded, "I've thought about it. We always wanted to open a big restaurant before, but there's actually no need. Our Gujia snacks are doing well. Every place we open one, the business is very good, and it's no worse than those restaurants."

"Yes." Zhang Caiping nodded. "Before, we wanted to open a restaurant because we thought that Mu Mu's cooking skills were good and the food she made with the recipes she gave was delicious. It would be a waste if we only served a small number of people. We want more people to have a taste of it."

"But now, since there is an errand shop

Even if the rich don't want to eat at our Gujia Snacks restaurant, they can still order food to be delivered to their homes." Zhang Caiping said, "Why don't we just focus on making Gujia Snacks a success? It would be great to open a small restaurant, and we don't have to worry about offending the dignitaries."

"Yes." Wang Cuizhen nodded. "The capital is not like the outside world. Even in Chong'an, there is General Li, the prefect, and the deputy prefect. Our family is the lowest official. Now in the capital, I feel that the owners behind the shops on the streets are all from the families of the dignitaries. Our Shangqing fought hard to be promoted to the fifth-rank general. We can't help him much, and we can't offend people because of doing business and hold him back."

Zhang Caiping nodded.

So the three of them agreed and continued to open a small shop as before.

However, since Li Zhiyin and the monk's wife also came to the capital, they continued to open Wangyou Xiaoxia in the capital, along with Min Huilan.

With Li Zhiyin around, even in the capital, General Li would be a very reliable backer.

The shop was still provided by Li Zhiyin.

Li Zhiyin's mother was originally a lady in Beijing. She was the eldest daughter of the Earl of Yongning and she also had a shop in Beijing as a dowry.

Li Zhiyin chose a shop on Zhuque Street, which was close to all three of their stores.

With the experience in Chong'an, the opening of the Wangyou Xiaoxi shop went smoothly.

Here, Zhang Caiping and Gu Shangwei also rented a shop on Xuanwu Street to open Gu's Snack Shop.

Li Mumu wants to open an errand shop in the capital, and she doesn't need to worry about the location of the shop.

She went to the government office and told the government about it, and they gave her a large shop on Xuanwu Street.

In addition, as in other places, a registration point is set up at every alley entrance.

Even the back doors of government offices and the residences of high-ranking officials had registration points set up.

The dignitaries in Beijing are different from those in other places.

The ministers and nobles are all in the capital.

Naturally, they don't want these things to happen to them.

They went to find Jingzhao Yin, but he sent them back with just one sentence.

This is the will of the saint. If they don't want to do it, they can go and talk to the saint.

Now that the saint has been brought up, what else can these people say?
