Chapter 127
When drawing a drawing and putting it aside, one hand first held the paper and picked it up to watch.

Bai Susu paused, raised her eyes and looked over with surprise, "Why are you here? The banquet is over?"

"It's just a simple meal, and it doesn't take long." Zhou Ximing sat down beside Bai Susu, looking at the blueprint in his hand, "Is this the pastry you newly researched?"

"It's just some ideas." Bai Susu put down the brush in her hand, "It's always necessary to have some new tricks in making dim sum."

"It looks really good." Zhou Ximing put the piece of drawing paper aside and looked at Bai Susu, "The snacks you made today really taste good."

Bai Susu knew that he was talking about those at the birthday banquet in the palace, and her eyes showed helplessness, "When the sixth princess came to see me, I thought it was someone from a rich family celebrating their birthday, but I didn't expect that it would be the emperor."

"It's better if you don't know." Zhou Ximing looked at her with a smile, "Things made when you don't know are often more pleasing to the eye."

"Anyway, this matter is considered safe." Bai Susu also breathed a sigh of relief.

"The things you said in the court today are indeed a bit out of bounds. If the emperor is not happy today, I am afraid that you will be punished by the emperor." Zhou Ximing looked at Bai Susu, thinking that he still wanted to let her know the horror of power.

"At that time, I only wanted to get another life-saving thing for myself." Bai Susu looked at Zhou Ximing, "You don't know the way the third prince looks at me today, it's like wanting to kill me."

When Bai Susu was leaving, she inadvertently glanced at the third prince, the undisguised murderous intent in his eyes was really shocking even just looking at it.

"This time for the emperor's birthday, he gave the emperor a map of the mountains and rivers. The emperor looks very happy, so that he won't have to worry about his mistakes." Zhou Ximing looked at Bai Susu, "I'm afraid you really need to be more careful these days."

"You gave me a personal guard to protect me every day, and the third prince would have no way to harm me."

"I hope so." Zhou Ximing has been fighting wits and courage with the third prince for so many years, and the most annoying thing is that he uses conspiracy behind his back. I only hope that this time, he can restrain himself a little.

"By the way, how do you plan to deal with the sugar business?" Bai Susu looked at Zhou Ximing, "Today Xiao Jingyu and I met the head of the Shen family. I believe that the Shen family will fall soon. What about the remaining three families?"

"The rest is the Wang family, the Li family and the Gu family. The Wang family and the Gu family have always done business fairly. I plan to do the sugar business with them. As for the Li family..." Zhou Ximing frowned, "The Li family is vicious. Cunning, people like this, we still can't let them develop."

It seems that Zhou Ximing and Xiao Jingyu will deal with the Li family next.

Bai Susu now has a basic understanding of the people in these sugar shops, "I heard that the Li family is the number one in the sugar shop, I'm afraid it's hard to deal with."

"Part of the sugar produced by the Li family is made by buying people's grain at a low price. If these things are found, it will not be difficult for the Li family to fall."

Nowadays, food is in short supply, and it is expressly forbidden to use grain to make sugar.In doing so, the Li family is undoubtedly taking the blame.

Three Prince's Mansion
The third prince sat on a high seat, looked at the sandalwood boxes in front of him, and signaled the people around him to open them.

After these boxes were opened, the white silver inside was exposed, and under the light, it shone silvery.

The middle-aged man sitting across from him looked at the third prince with a smile, his small eyes revealed shrewdness, "Now the Xiao family is suppressing everyone in the sugar shop, the villain came here today, just to ask the third prince for protection."

The third prince held a string of beads in his hand, moved them one by one, and looked down at the snowflake silver, without any fluctuation in his eyes, "Do you want this prince to help you with these mere silver?"

"I heard that the chief ambassador behind the Xiao family is the crown prince. The villain has nowhere to go, so I have no choice but to hope that the third prince will be accommodating."

The person who said this was the head of the Li family, Li Wude.

He knew that the third prince and the prince had never dealt with each other. Although he didn't know whether the drop in sugar prices was related to the prince, but whoever made the Xiao family get closer to the prince, it didn't matter if he took advantage of it.

When the third prince heard Li Wude's words, he really became interested. He put the beads in his hand aside, a pair of black eyes flashed a gloomy look, and his voice was low, "You said the prince was also involved in this matter?"

"This..." Li Wude expressed his embarrassment, and said vaguely, "I just heard about it, but recently, the prince often goes to the sugar shop opened by the Xiao family in Dongshi."

He did not express his guesses, but stated some visible facts, and the third prince would naturally judge them.

After waiting quietly for a while, the third prince sneered, "I didn't expect this prince to catch him here, Li Wude, this prince can help you bring down Xiao's sugar shop, but you have to help me The prince is doing me a favor."

Li Wude was overjoyed, and hurriedly responded, "Thank you, Third Prince, thank you, Third Prince."

No one cared about the conspiracy between the two of them except for the few people present.

In the next period of time, both Zhou Ximing and Xiao Jingyu turned their attention to the Li family, and bought the shop of the Li family very smoothly.

It was just because it went so smoothly that both of them felt that there was something wrong with it, so they didn't act rashly anymore, but just bought another house where they made sugar.

Bai Susu was installing a swing in the yard when she saw two people walking over with serious expressions, and the atmosphere became tense.

She put down the work at hand for a while, boiled a pot of tea and brought it out, and put it in front of the two of them, "Why are you all here today, and you are still so worried?"

"Today, I went with him to the place where Li's sugar was made before." Zhou Ximing looked at Bai Susu, frowning, "Those people inside are all people who have signed a death contract, and everyone has their own blood. The skin was torn apart, and there was not a single piece of good flesh on the whole body."

Rao Zhou Ximing had tried prisoners in the prison before, and he had never seen such a miserable person, all skinny and skinny, without a human appearance.

Xiao Jingyu patted the table indignantly, with anger in his eyes, "These beasts!"

Looking at the expressions of the two of them, she knew that the situation there was not good. She poured a cup of tea for the two of them, but she was very calm, "You guys said that you would not buy a new shop for the time being, why did you buy the Li's house again?" The sugar house?"
